Slime

A species of strange slimes encountered on Mauray. Slimes are highly vulnerable to fire. They have arrived on this world via a huge comet containing specimens of slimes.

Basic Information

Anatomy

Varies between individuals and over time. Their bodies stay in 1 large cluster constantly (unless reproducing)

Genetics and Reproduction

After reaching a critical size Slimes can split apart.

Growth Rate & Stages

They grow about as fast as they eat. While slimes can grow to near limitless sizes, they typically prefer to reproduce by splitting. Strangely, different sizes are often differently coloured. Large ones are more red, and small green.

Ecology and Habitats

They mostly live in the huge underground where the sun has less effect of them.

Dietary Needs and Habits

Slimes can eat any form of meat. They do this by absorbing prey into their body and digesting it. They starve after not eating for a few weeks. They have a slow metabolism, allowing them to survive longer without digesting anything but also restricting their acess to energy, making them slower.

Additional Information

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

They can form eye-like organs and can feel what shape their body takes up at any point in time. They have no other method of perception.

Lifespan

13 years
