When an oozing one dies, its body liquefies, such that its remains become a mass of slime with a vaguely humanoid shape. Dark rituals can imbue these remains with some of the hunger of the Faceless Lord, granting them a new life. Existing in the void between life and death, a rancid one has a uniquely repulsive stench and no desires beyond seeking food, such that it is little more than a common ooze. The only remembrance of a rancid one's former existence is its humanoid shape, though its limbs droop listlessly and its face issues naught but moans of anguish and vitriol. Ooze Nature. A rancid one doesn't require sleep. |
