Version 0.32: This article is up to date for the latest stable release of Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup.
Jellies are amorphous creatures that serve Jiyva, the god of slime. They mindlessly seek out and consume anything digestible in their quest to reproduce endlessly. Players should be careful around them, as their melee attacks are often acidic, greatly reducing your AC and weapon damage (though some jellies pack different capabilities). They can be found in great numbers in the Slime Pits, and they occasionally appear in other branches as well.
All jellies are immune to nets, webs, and constriction.
Followers of Jiyva have nothing to fear from any kind of jelly, but worshipping Jiyva allows local jellies to consume items off the floor for the glory of the slime god.

Endoplasm- Animate dungeon crud, endoplasms are only dangerous to the very inexperienced. They occasionally freeze their foes. - J
