I beg to differ... Sure, they might not want to eat your brain or steal your soul to be drafted into some fiendish army or another, but never underestimate the value of a good Long Con. And these guys *very much* strike me as playing the Long Con. A race that wishes to make all other races part of themselves is still sinister to me (though maybe I'm just biased toward biodiversity and things with discernable body parts XD)

A good aligned slime that would love you to join it's collective, but if you don't, that's fine, too, they're just glad to be your friend.

So...this is when SPC-999 "grows up" and goes through a religious phase.

Sounds like Shoth is just Juibliex taking his sweet time

This might be the most dangerous species in the multiverse. They'll CONVINCE you that it's okay to lose your individuality. Like some kind of hyper-intelligent Juiblex. Utterly terrifying.

Plane shift me now to the Dimension of Cheese!

Benevolent intelligent collective slime? Quite original! Thanks to you and Kobold Press for informing me.

Theoretically, the Shoth could bring intelligent undead back to life. Ghosts have bodies in the form of ectoplasm. They literally have a bit of mass (called soul stuff) So their spectral bodies could be dissolved in the Zolve in order to get another chance at life. If an intelligent undead (say a wight) were given the opportunity to enter the Zolve, it could be given a new body. And it would immediately become trustworthy (a total alignment shift) and adopt a new perspective to seek out others to transform but to never force a transformation on others

Yessss! Another TMG drop! Great start to the week!

I wanna see an Elder Brain and a Droth fighting in the same pool. Maybe ships crash in too eachother or some teleportation goes awry, but imagine if they merged...

Split Slingshot - This modified slingshot has a gap in the pouch that would normally hold the projectile. The Shoth hardened part of itself, leaving a trail between it and the rest of the body through the gap in the pouch. The Shoth then shoots that part of itself against a target within 30ft which then adheres to the target. The Shoth can either pull the target towards itself or travel up the trail. The Shoth can easily use this method to travel around or over gaps or dangerous terrain.

I can just hear my player cleric saying as one of these, "The power of Shoth compelles you!" XD

They could easily be fit into the forgotten realms if you make it so Shoth is an aspect of Ghaunadaur 🤔 The "sacrifices offering themselves willingly to the oozes" fits so well with the shoth screed it's kinda scary. Ghaunadaur also being touched by the far realm fits quite well with shoths being aberrations.

Love Kobold Press! Best independent book makers.

Nor is it to be thought...that man is either the oldest or the last of earth's masters, or that the common bulk of life and substance walks alone. The Old Ones were, the Old Ones are, and the Old Ones shall be. Not in the spaces we know, but between them, they walk serene and primal, undimensioned and to us unseen. Yog-Sothoth knows the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the key and guardian of the gate. Past, present, future, all are one in Yog-Sothoth. He knows where the Old Ones broke through of old, and where They shall break through again. He knows where They had trod earth's fields, and where They still tread them, and why no one can behold Them as They tread. By Their smell can men sometimes know Them near, but of Their semblance can no man know, saving only in the features of those They have begotten on mankind; and of those are there many sorts, differing in likeness from man's truest eidolon to that shape without sight or substance which is Them. They walk unseen and foul in lonely places where the Words have been spoken and the Rites howled through at their Seasons. The wind gibbers with Their voices, and the earth mutters with Their consciousness. They bend the forest and crush the city, yet may not forest or city behold the hand that smites. Kadath in the cold waste hath known Them, and what man knows Kadath? The ice desert of the South and the sunken isles of Ocean hold stones whereon Their seal is engraven, but who hath seen the deep frozen city or the sealed tower long garlanded with seaweed and barnacles? Great Cthulhu is Their cousin, yet can he spy Them only dimly. Iä! Shub-Niggurath! As a foulness shall ye know Them. Their hand is at your throats, yet ye see Them not; and Their habitation is even one with your guarded threshold. Yog-Sothoth is the key to the gate, whereby the spheres meet. Man rules now where They ruled once; They shall soon rule where man rules now. After summer is winter, after winter summer. They wait patient and potent, for here shall They reign again.

I do have zombies and such.... Necromancers in my world. But no undead is sort of spontaneosly created. All of them have a reason like curse, or unfinished bussiness, or serving necromancer as a way to repent for their sins. (in my world, necromancy is a dark art, but technically is not bad. You need to strike an agreement with the deceased, and you can animate only neutral or bad People.) There are Black Priests, from slavic folklore, Who cannot animate the dead, but use a lot of powers, which are considered necromantic. Like they can find Last things the deceased person saw. If they have a drop of blood they can use the same ability on living, but they will see only the Last moments that led to the blood being spilled. They can even track the original owner of things, if they had the thing long enough.

That intro just keeps getting fancier

The Black Truffle: This unassuming truffle looks and smells justs as any other black truffle would, with one major exception, once this one is eaten, it turns the eater into an ooze after a short time. Once injested, the eater must make a DC 18 con save or become poisoned until they take a long rest. Each day when the eater of the Black Truffle takes a long rest they can repeat the save. The save is made until the creature succeeds or fails 3 times, wichever comes first. Successes mean the creature returns to normal and is no longer poisoned. Failure means the creature transforms into a Black Pudding and act accordingly. Zom Case: Specially designed to protect the Zom from harm, this item protects the Shoth from critical hits and gives the Sloth +1 AC due to their greatest weakness being well protected. Very basic, but desired by all Shoth.

What I am curious about is what could force a seemingly well meaning society into doing such violence just to get the cooperation of their targets. The general feel of the Shoth is there are what they seem. A well intentioned people who want to save everyone they meet. I wouldn't really consider them slimes though. Slimes are generally simple creatures that have little to no mind of their own. The Shoth seem to more be beings that have learned how to create amorphous shells for their consciousness. A slime is still, to a degree, a natural living entity. The Shoth bodies are more of a technology and they just thought not being confined to set parameters was nifty.

My guess would be this only happens in extreme "greater good" scenarios. For example if they discover a civilization that's going to do terrible things to the world at large if they're left to their own devices, they might force them into the Shoth so that they can be "guided" by more altruistic aims. Or if there's some great threat out there and a particular civilization is the only one with the means to combat it, they might force them into the Shoth so that the Shoth can make use of that ability to save everyone else. Presumably after making a sales pitch for a voluntary collaboration first, of course.

This can make for a random encounter in campaign set in the fringes of civilization. Maybe the DM wants to do a little SpellJammer. The party helps them repair a ship. In exchange they hand over a star chart.

The Shoth Puff Packet: A gooey, hollow sphere that pulls gaseous waste from metabolic processes and pressurizes it.

Mostly used by the Suze (spell check needed) to rivet metals, it can also be used as a weapon or propulsion device

So it actually makes more sense that collective entity/species would actually be pretty selective about who they let join, and the parameters wouldn't be knowlege or power....it'd be how well you get along, and want to be there. Consider how awful it'd be sharing a brain with a selfish person, or a judgemental person. Even if those traits don't bother you in friends...remember, you can all read each others minds.
