Mudwretch

Creature 2 — earth, elemental, water

Pre-Remaster content. May include legacy alignment.

In its resting form, a mudwretch looks like a large puddle of thick, dark mud, heaped at the center in a slightly drier patch of loam. When a living creature approaches, though, the mudwretch lurches upward, piling its muddy flesh upon itself to form a roughly humanoid shape, often in vague mockery of the approaching creature's general form in cases where the creature is a humanoid itself.

Abilities

Muddy Field (aura) — 10 feet. The ground in the area is difficult terrain for all non-mudwretch creatures.
Susceptible to Desiccation — If a mudwretch takes any damage from Desiccate or a similar effect, takes 10 or more fire damage from a single effect, or spends more than 24 hours outside of a source of sufficient hydration (such as a swamp, river, well, or recent rainfall), it becomes dehydrated. While dehydrated, the mudwretch can't Spew Mud, is Sickened 2, and is Slowed 1 until it either fully immerses in water, spends 1 minute in the rain, or rehydrates in another way (such as via Gory Hydration).
Constrict — 1d8+2 bludgeoning damage, DC 18 Fortitude Constrict
Gory Hydration
Mud Puddle (concentrate) — Until it next acts, the mudwretch appears to be an ordinary puddle of mud. It has an automatic result of 20 on Deception checks to pass as a mud puddle and can make a fist Strike against a creature that walks onto the mud puddle as a reaction.
Spew Mud (primal) — The mudwretch spews a 20-foot line of pressurized mud that deals 2d10 bludgeoning damage (DC 18 Reflex save). On a critical failure, a creature also takes a –10-foot status penalty to its Speeds for 1 round. The mudwretch can't Spew Mud again for 1d4 rounds.
