HALF-OOZE

• –8 Dexterity, –2 Intelligence, –2 Charisma, +8 Constitution

• Medium: As Medium creatures, half-oozes have no special bonuses or penalties due to their size.

• Half-ooze base land speed is 30 feet. 
• Half-oozes are able to precisely distribute their weight, and receive a +5 racial bonus to balance rolls.
• Tremorsense 60'.  Half-oozes are otherwise blind.
• Automatic Language: Common. Bonus Languages: Any (other than secret languages, such as Druidic). See the Speak Language skill.
• Favored Class: Barbarian. When determining whether a multiclass half-ooze takes an experience point penalty, his barbarian class levels do not count.
• Oozelike (Ex): half-oozes take half damage from piercing and bludgeoning attacks, and twice normal damage from slashing attacks.  Apply any damage reduction before multiplying.
• Ooze Talk (Ex): though oozes are not intelligent, half-oozes have a way of communicating with them, just as pechs communicate with stone.  An ooze's answers are typically very limited, and complex questions tend to confuse it.  Oozes recognize half-oozes, and do not attack them, though they must be convinced by the half-ooze to refrain from attacking other party members.
• Feed (Ex): each day, half-oozes must consume a mass of organic matter equal to their own body weight.  If they accomplish this feeding all at once, for the next hour they gain Regeneration 1, which results in the healing of wounds and the re-growth of lost limbs.  This regeneration can be overcome by any types of energy the half-ooze is vulnerable to.  (The head cannot be regenerated; a decapitated half-ooze is dead.)
• Energy Resistance/Vulnerability: roll 1d20 at character creation to determine a half-ooze's unique resistance or vulnerability to energy.
  
  1-4:        acid                                For each 4-point spread:
  5-8:        cold                                  1:  Energy instead causes enlarge effect, 1 round/die
  9-12:      fire                                    2: 10 point energy resistance
  13-16:    lightning                            3:  Vulnerability (take 150% damage)
  17-20:    sonic                                4:  Vulnerability.  Roll again, ignoring
  .                                                         a result that indicates this energy type.

  For example, a roll of 16 indicates vulnerability to lightning, and that another roll is warranted.  If the second roll is a 5, the character has vulnerability to lightning and is enlarged by cold effects.

• Ooze blood: despite their humanoid form, half-oozes count as oozes for the purposes of racial effects.  They have minds and discernible anatomies.  They do not sleep.
• Level Adjustment: +1

Half-oozes appear to be sluggish and slow, both in thought and in deed.  They often have a bloated, corpulent, or even melted humanoid appearance.  Despite this, they have distinct internal organs, and possess intelligence.  As such, they are subject to charm, stun, poison, paralysis, and polymorph effects that do not specifically target humanoids.
