Short Spines: The bone ooze is full of bone shards, some of which protrude like spines. They deal 1d-2 impaling plus, Reach C. This is defensive weaponry, intended to discourage attackers; a wbone ooze cannot use its Spines actively. Those who grapple or slam a bone ooze are hit immediately and automatically – and those who slam it take maximum damage!
Bone Meld: While maintaining ongoing contact (grappling or engulfing, for example) with a creature that has bones, the bone ooze can drain 2 ST and 1 HT per second from the victim, while healing 1 HP per 3 each stolen ST or HT. ST theft reduces BL and damage, but does not lower HP. HT theft oes not lower FP. The lost attributes return as per Lasting Crippling (p. B423).
Ooze Senses: An ooze’s entire body is a primitive sensory organ that can ascertain prey by scent and vibration. It uses standard range penalties instead of a -1/yard penalty when detecting smells, and gets a +5 bonus on Smell and Taste rolls (Sense roll 15). Its smell operates both in air and underwater. In addition, the ooze can detect vibrations in the air. It can locate prey in the dark, but cannot detect details. To use Vibration Sense, the ooze must make a Sense roll (10). Consult the Size and Speed/Range Table (p. B550) and apply separate bonuses for the target’s size and speed, and a penalty for the range to the target. Wind will generate “noise” that interferes with this sense. Find the speed of the wind on the table and assess the relevant speed penalty. A successful roll reveals the rough size, location, speed, and direction of movement of the target, allowing the ooze to move to it and attempt to engulf it.
Traits: Blindness; Doesn’t Breathe; Doesn’t Sleep; Hidebound; High Pain Threshold; Immunity to Metabolic Hazards; Injury Tolerance (Homogenous, No Blood, No Eyes, No Head, No Neck); Invertebrate; Magic Resistance 3 (Improved); Mute; No Legs (Rolls); No Manipulators; Slippery 3; Unaging.

Electricity Absorption: The bronze serpent has DR 20 against electricity, is immune to electrical conduction and noxious electrical effects. Each point of damage this DR stops turns into one character point that the bronze serpent can use to heal itself. These points are stored into a pool that can contain up to 20 character points. Once this pool is full, each point of DR will still stop one point of electricity damage, but will not convert it into a character point. The bronze serpent does not have to use stored points immediately. It loses absorbed points – unused ones first – at the rate of one point per second. It loses enhanced abilities as the points drain away. Restoring one HP drains 2 stored points immediately. Such healing is permanent. Only HP in excess of the bronze serpent’s usual scores drains away. The bronze serpent cannot absorb damage from its own abilities (for example, if its natural weapons are magically imbued with electricity).
