The Water Slime

The water slime
Being the second most common subspecies, this one tends to stick to plentiful sources of water, like the beach or a lake in the forest. If you see a light-blue slime nearly as transparent as water, obviusly enough you know you’re dealing with this particular kind of slimes.
Battle Tactics:
Like any slime, they’ll likely attack if you get too close, so if you want to avoid a surprise attack, search the sorroundings of the water source, and then closely watch for any kind of activity on the water surface. Also note how they can disguise themselves as mere puddles of water. This subspecies prides itself in the ability to store incredible amounts of water in their bodies- sure, other slimes drink it aswell and is a mayor component in their body mass, but these suckers take that love to a whole new level. A small, measly one can tower over you after drinking up as much as they can. However, they don’t use the crushing weight to overpower you. After swelling up so much, they split into multiple copies of themselves and attempt to swarm you. But due to the fact they are divided, they are also weaker than the original, and by that I mean they’re dumber and slower. Running away is good advice. But in case you want to defeat this foe yourself, heed these words. You can easily trap the smaller copies by magical or physical means, but only seperately. Together they’ll merge and attempt to trash out of their prison. Second, thanks to their high amount of water, freezing them is easier than burning, although a large amount of heat magic will be also very effective.
For pet owners:''
These guys are relatively easy to tame, thanks to their playful nature. Though be vary, they will attempt to grab your attention by dividing and encasing you from all sides.
