Abilities & Attacks

Motion Sense. A giant amoeba can sense nearby creatures through vibration and air or water movement. Constrict (1 action). 1d4 bludgeoning plus 1d4 acid, DC 17 basic Fortitude save. The monster deals the listed amount of damage to any number of creatures Grabbed or Restrained by it. Each of those creatures can attempt a basic Fortitude save with the listed DC. Envelop (3 actions). Requirements The giant amoeba begins its turn with a target its size or smaller Grabbed. Effect The giant amoeba maintains the Grab and extends pseudopods to surround the creature and pull it inside the amoeba's body. This thereafter has the same effect as if the amoeba had Engulfed the creature (DC 17 Reflex save, 1d6 acid damage, Escape, Rupture 3). Weak Acid. A giant amoeba's acid damages only organic material-not metal, stone, or other inorganic substances. Grab (1 action). Requirements The monster's last action was a successful Strike that lists Grab in its damage entry, or the monster has a creature Grabbed or Restrained. Effect If used after a Strike, the monster attempts to Grapple the creature using the body part it attacked with. This attempt neither applies nor counts toward the creature's multiple attack penalty. The monster can instead use Grab and choose one creature it's grabbing or restraining with an appendage that has Grab to automatically extend that condition to the end of the monster's next turn.
