Homebrew Gelatinous Dude Species Details

 Sometimes, in deep dark dungeons, parties find themselves in difficult situations. And sometimes this results in the parties bard creating a child with a Gelatinous Cube. Well this is the race for that, for with this race you can play as the offspring of that one bard in your party that banged a Cube to save the others. Of course you can also make them be a result of an animate object spell casted at some jello gone wrong or something dumb like that. Gelatinous dudes resemble their humanoid parents, wether it be a dragonborn or halfling, with semi see through and gelatinous skin, muscle, and blood, of any jello color. This leaves only the bones, eyes, organs, and hair a regular, humanoid, material. 

Gelatinous Dude Names

Gelatinous dudes usually have names appropriate to the culture in which they were raised. A gelatinous dude who wants to fit in among civilized races apposed to their origin point would adopt a name appropriate to the surrounding culture or their humanoid parent's culture. 

GRUDGING ACCEPTANCE

Each gelatinous dude finds a way to gain acceptance from those who hate gelatinous cubes or jello. Some are reserved, trying not to draw attention to themselves. A few demonstrate piety and good-heartedness as publicly as they can (whether or not such demonstrations are genuine). And some simply try to be so wierd that others just avoid them.
