Just when you thought that unsightly pasta stains had no champion, and you were comfortable in a world where mayonnaise didn't fight back, comes a creature made entirely of the stuff that bursts out of mashed caterpillars. A wobbly favorite of roleplayers young and old, the Gelatinous Cube is one of the new creatures in Hordes of the Underdark.

All you need is a straw and a tatse for limon flavored gook and you have nothing to fear. Ohhhh and a strong stomach to handle the acid.

I never really liked the gelatinous cube. But at least it's not a rust monster.
Now, snakes, that's what we need! Perhaps have them look like spelleffects, kind of like the black tentacles spell? If tentacles can slither, then so can snakes!

Hmmm...Good question. Maybe it's like the Golgothin(SP?????????) and it's the excriments(again...sp??) from slain paladins, hehe.
*mad scientist voice* I think they multiply through cell division, but there is only one way to find out....HHHAAA!!!! *hacks one in half to study*
I do love putting these in the modules, though.

Grey squirrel, rabbit, red fox, skunk, dire skunk, dire fox , griffin, centaur, pheonix, domestic cat, mouse, duck, vulture, turtle, snakes... That's all I can remember for now Heheh, well, I think that sounds good, tell Bioware! That's what I think should be added- OH, and don't forget.. make the skunk as cute as the badger!
The cube is O.K. but I would still perfer if Bioware would make ALL of the creatures above. :hm no smily-face that is grinning evilly!:

If the cube is green, is it green apple or lime flavor? And who would be brave enough to find out?

I tried this before, but all that ends up happening is the cube starts absorbing your insides until there is nothing left but slime.
All I could taste was pain.
*Ouch ooch eech! Blurgh!*

All I care about knowing is. Will the cube split when attacked? That's the only time these things become a tough battle. |

These things are scary. I once saw one and I was like "What on earth is that?!" I then charged it, got stuck and died... |
