Description
“Impeccable posture… rippling muscles… a
winning, can-do attitude… A black puddling
is only ever as good as that which it
emulates. And this one chose very wisely."
— Heliana, Immodest
Extracted from the remains of assimiloozes, these curious creatures are subjected to intricate biomantic procedures to limit their dangerous adaptive powers. As a side effect of the time spent around biomancers, they develop a strong fascination with humanoids, especially adventurers. Black puddlings can often be seen mimicking interesting characters or attempting to replicate particularly impressive feats of wit or strength, with… varying degrees of success.
If any of the black puddling’s traits or actions require a saving throw, it is always against the black puddling’s save DC, as calculated below.
Save DC = 8 + the tamer’s proficiency bonus + the
black puddling’s Constitution modifier
