Reclusive

As her gooey form is sensitive to drying out, Acrasia prefers the dim dreary home of her cave to venturing outside, though she’s often happy to encounter visitors.

Prideful

As comes naturally to dragons, Acrasia sees herself as above the petty squabbles of the smaller creatures, though, sometimes she deigns to offer them advice should they venture to her lair.

Hoardsome

Always looking to expand her collection, Acrasia naturally aquires gold and jewels, coming across many such things deep within her cave system.

Biology

Preferences

Biology

Her body is made entirely of slime, though usually she forms a tough membrane around the edges that prevents things from passing directly into her. That said, she can loosen it at will, enveloping objects in slime or collapsing into a formless puddle to creep through a crack. Don’t let her eyes fool you, her goolike body provides a tremorsense that allows her to tell when others are about, even with her eyes cannot.

Habitat

As a sentient creature made up entirely of goo, Acrasia craves dark and damp places to keep her moist. As such, you’ll hardly see her venturing outside of her cave except for misty nights, or days when it is especially stormy. Trails of purplish slime line her cave, marking her territory to all those who might stumble across it. That goopy residue clings to gold and objects of her hoard too, ensuring an easy identification of those who steal from it.

Diet

As her draconic presence would attest to, Acrasia primarily subsists on meat, with the largest portion of it being giant insects, bats, and other creatures that dwell in such subterranean habitats. That said, she certainly is not above eating the occasional adventurer that ends up down there, and she also enjoys a good hunt on days when she feels comfortable trudging above the surface.
