Slimes normally aren't intelligent, but occasionally they merge together to become a powerful force to swallow all things. A king slime is an incredibly dangerous variety of slime, able to swallow a human whole. Its thick viscous body can resist struggling from prey it consumes. If an adventurer is found alone, It gets to a vantage point higher than the target and drops onto them causing them to weaken and perish.
