Mnemonclasp Oozes Species in Animora | World Anvil

Mnemonclasp Oozes

Mnemonclasp Oozes are gelatinous creatures that feed on memories and knowledge. These amorphous beings dwell within the misty depths of The Veiled Expanse, seeking out those who dare to venture too close to their concealed lairs. Upon contact, the oozes latch onto their prey, draining their memories until all that remains is a vague sense of confusion and forgetfulness.   Mnemonclasp Oozes are creatures imbued with some small amount of the power of The Veiled Enigma, and are said to be creatures that are naturally born from within the supernatural fog of The Veiled Expanse.

Appearence

Mnemonclasp Oozes resemble semi-translucent, amorphous masses of gel. They are shrouded in an ever-changing, iridescent mist, which obscures their true form and makes them nearly invisible within the magical fog of The Veiled Expanse. Their amorphous bodies ripple with faint glimmers of light, mirroring the enigmatic essence of the enigmatic forests they call home.  

Abilities

Hunting Technique

Mnemonclasp Oozes are ambush predators. They lie in wait, hidden within the mist, and sense the approach of intruders or creatures wandering too close to their concealed lairs. When their prey draws near, they lash out with tendrils of mist that wrap around their victims. Upon contact, the tendrils start to drain memories and knowledge from their target, extracting the essence of experiences and information.

Effects of Mnemonclasp Drain

Temporary Amnesia

The process of memory drainage is disorienting, leaving the victims with temporary amnesia. They might lose recollection of their recent activities, events, and even their own identity. The experience is akin to waking from a deep slumber with a vague sense of confusion and disconnection from their past.

Fragmented Recall

The memories absorbed by the Mnemonclasp Ooze don't disappear entirely but become fragmented and distorted within the ooze's essence. Victims may have brief flashes of recollection or fleeting glimpses of their lost memories, but they remain disjointed and difficult to grasp, leaving them with a haunting sense of what has been taken.

Selective Knowledge Drain

Mnemonclasp Oozes have a peculiar ability to selectively drain specific memories or information, depending on the oozes' innate curiosity or malevolence. This ability allows them to target particular types of knowledge, making them even more unpredictable and formidable.

Veiled Camouflage

Mnemonclasp Oozes possess an innate ability to blend seamlessly with The Veiled Expanse's magical fog, rendering them virtually invisible until they choose to attack. This camouflage, combined with their talent for memory drainage, allows them to remain hidden and elusive even to experienced adventurers and scholars who seek to uncover the secrets of The Veiled Expanse.
