Ink Slime

A relatively rare slime.
Pitch black in color with white facial features (-_-) , these slimes can be found in deep caves and dark crevices. May be found if you drill in the right place.

Eats: rock plorts and gold plorts
Produces: pink plorts, ink plort (10% chance)
Feeding a gold plort will automatically cause it to spawn 5 plorts with at least 2 of them ink.
Starting ink plort value: 75

Does not combine into largo. Ink plorts may be fed to tarrs causing them to explode into 5 random plorts. These plorts can be any largo forming plort or a gold plort (so cannot spawn puddleplorts or more inkplorts).

Personality: reserved. Mostly sleeps. Suspicious expression if you try to give food. Only eats when you are not too close. If hungry/angry/feels threatened, can shoot flammable, blinding, liquid that obscures your or other slimes vision causing panic. This fades over time does so faster if you shoot water at the blinded target or jump in a pool if you are blinded. However these slimes dont do so well in water and start to shrink on contact at a certain point they vanish leaving a pile of ink plorts.

We'll need a bit more information.

What's the starting Plort Value?

(Guide - Pink: 7. Rock/Tabby/Phosphur: 15. Rad/Boom/Honey/Puddle: 30. Gold: 200.)

How does it behave?

Additionally, what color are its eyes, and what does it's mouth look like?

Also, I get the "ink stone" reference, but I don't think I'd ever feed a gold plort to this.

Also not seeing the sense in it ONLY eating rock plorts or gold plorts. Why can't it eat Tabby and Phosphur plorts too?

I'm guessing thematic reasons. Gold and other metallic inks are a thing, and solid sticks of ink are combined with water on inkstones in traditional Chinese calligraphy. Cats and lamps don't have much to do with ink.

Although radium ink [url=http://www.google.com/patents/US1097981]was a thing[/i], too, tragic as all that mess was. Rad Plorts ought to also fit, then.

Ohh. That makes sense. XD I don't really know much about ink, so thanks for the lesson! O:

Well i guess if they make minerals like gold silver iron stone that would be what it eats. This is basically instant tar killer that releases possibly rare plorts. Each ink plort is useful not for its sell price but for the fact that you can get plorts from slimes you havent encountered yet.

Look, 7 days passed. That's just a week! So it was small. But excuse me, I just got back from a 1 month vacation, and I'm checking on the forums. Is that bad? At least let me explain before calling me an idiot.

I can say this a cool idea, but can we see a little bit of what it looks like?
