Stunjellies appear, at a distance, to be no more than a normal section of wall, but should any individual stray too close, they will turn translucent and attack. Most known examples occupy an area 10-ft wide by 10-ft high and 2-ft to 5-ft thick, but larger versions have occasionally been reported.
Treasure: Stunjellies carry only what they have consumed.
Special Abilities
Surprise: It is very likely that a Stunjelly will catch its victim by surprise.
Paralysis Attack: In addition to the 2d4 damage its mutable tendrils inflict upon a its prey, a saving throw vs paralysis must also be made; failure renders the unfortunate unable to move for 5d4 rounds, which the Stunjelly uses to engulf its victim and begin the process of digestion.
Immunities: Stunjellies are themselves immune to paralysis, as well as polymorph, electrical attacks and mind-influencing spells.
