Ooze: Immune to mind-influencing effects, poison, sleep,
paralysis, stunning, and polymorphing. Not subject to critical
hits.
Blindsight (Ex): An ooze's entire body is a primitive
sensory organ that can ascertain prey by scent and vibration
within 60 feet.
Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the black pudding
must hit with its slam attack. If it gets a hold, it can
constrict.
Acid (Ex): The pudding secretes a digestive acid that
dissolves organic material and metal quickly. Any melee hit deals
acid damage. The pudding's acidic touch deals 50 points of
damage per round to wood or metal objects. The opponent's
armor and clothing dissolve and become useless immediately unless
they succeed at Reflex saves (DC 19). The acid can dissolve
stone, dealing 20 points of damage per round of contact. A metal
or wooden weapon that strikes a black pudding also dissolves
immediately unless it succeeds at a Reflex save (DC 19).
Constrict (Ex): A black pudding deals automatic slam and acid
damage with a successful grapple check. The opponent's
clothing and armor suffer a -4 penalty to Reflex saves against
the acid.
Split (Ex): Weapons deal no damage to a black pudding. Instead
the creature splits into two identical puddings, each with half
the original's hit points (round down). A pudding with only
1 hit point cannot be further split.
