Homebrew Fluxed Mimicking Slime Species Details
Through the never-ending engulfment of other creatures, the race of slimes not only evolved to absorb the physical nutrients of their prey but also developed the ability to consume their memories. As a result, these slimes have achieved something their more primitive cousins - oozes - could not: intelligence and sentience. How exactly the slimes learned speech and even magic remains a mystery. What is certain, however, is that a former species of round blobs of translucent goop has become a capable and civilized race with their own quirks and abilities.
