The black blobbie is black with dark gray patches. It rusts away iron, which is its natural food. Because of this it is disliked by any iron using group and loathed by dwarves. The iron rusting is slow, not something it can do in combat. The blobbie is not hard to defeat if something other than a frontal attack is used. The use of direct force multiplies the creature and it ability to attack.

The clear jelly looks like a blob of slime and tends to pick up small objects that don't mind acid like glass and gems. It has a two die acid attack on its skin (2d6 for 6 rounds, d6 for six rounds, damage goes direct to hits). This acid represents an ongoing digestive proccess. It eats anything it can get itself around. It catches on fire easily, exploding and dying when damage reaches the level of unconciousness.

The floater beast is a lighter-than-air blootch about two feet across with a huge trifold mouth at its south pole surrounded by 3-foot serrated tentacles. It has three large eyes each of which emits a different attack - petrifaction (which heals as lost hitpoints), stamina drain, and push (the 1=0", 2-4=1", 5-6=2" variety). The creature has a purple and green chitinous body and tends to roam near its cave of hiding place gathering treasure and killing anyone who comes near.

The green munch is a hexagonal green rubbery translucent blob with yellow and violet highlights. It can create pseudopods for motion and attack but likes to sit and eat. It eats plants and grows duplicates unless attacked. The problem with this is that it can do this pretty quickly. The Munch spreads in a hexagonal mat growing duplicates at the edge of the mat (the mat passes food around). When the mat grows to several tens of feet accross (several hundered individuals) the individuals all take off at 6" per round in random directions. They run 3d6 hours and then look for food again. Green munch starve to death pretty quickly if they can't get food. When they hit zero health they create a spore that they inject into the ground. This spore stays dormant for years. While eating green munch suck plants in with great force or wear off chunks of tough plants with their pseudopods.

The Myctahr is a river dweller. It lurks below the surface and then rises beneath food, engulfing it with some probability. Its levitation ability is used to escape large opponents or to permit it to attack shorelines. It also attack ships. It is a hideous brown and purple armored shpere with a huge orifice lined with sharp teeth on its south pole. Its equator is rimmed with eyes permitting it omnidirectional night vision.

The quozzozz form large single organisms made of hundreds or thousands of individuals. The individuals are nearly harmless save for their ability to enslave other sentient creatures. This requires a bite that does hitpoint damage. Some quozzozz tissue grows in the wound, creating the enslavement - a made save kills the tissue. The quozzozz typicaly invade an area by sending in native slaves which they use to capture victims on which to perform ``conversions'', coming out into the open only once they control an area. They are interplane travelers originating in a dim, wet world. The appear as a gray fried egg 18 inches across and fly like frisbees.

The rainbow emperor is a creature that lives in the very higest mountains where it is cold and perpetually dry. It flys slowly and anchors itself during high winds. It is photosynthetic but requires iron to bud. Its appearance is that of a huge soap bubble filled with opalescent sparkles, deforming when it forms a pseudopod.

The zapzap is a glowing blootch about the size of a medicine ball. It appears as a rainbow blob and can slowly drain mana out of mana stones or magic items. It will attack anything with a lot of mana in it or on it. It is dangerous only to the incautious or novices to the business of monster fighting.
