An arcane ooze is a type of ooze with a close association with arcane magic.[1]
Description[]
They are huge creatures of green protoplasm.[1]
Abilities[]
An arcane ooze has the ability to drain spellcasting energies.[1]
Abilities[]
Arcane oozes will move and surround their foes. As their acid eats away at their spellcasting prey, they will also suck away their prey's arcane energy, draining away the ability to create or cast spells. They then use this energy to heal themselves, or increase their strength. Arcane oozes are also immune to any type of magic, whether they be spells or innate abilities. Attacks using acid against the arcane ooze will heal it.[1]
History[]
There are many theories as to where arcane oozes come from. Some believe that they were developed as as a weapon in a war between arcane spellcasters, but there is a little evidence for this. Others believe that arcane oozes were created in an enormous event triggered by arcane magic and that they will eventually consume all arcane magic in the world.[1]
Locations[]
Arcane oozes have been seen within the floating citadel of Arcanix, home to the Arcane Congress. However, it is not sure if they are there to be studied, or are being created.[2] Arcane oozes are found with alarming regularity in the depths of Sharn.[1]
