Gloppy the Molasses Monster
Para-Archomental (Neutral) (Divine Rank: 0)
Gloppy, as he is known to the residents of the elemental plane of candy, is a semi-sentient creature of immense power. He hails from the boundary between the elemental plane of candy and the elemental plane of water, a para-elemental plane of sweet syrup and melted sweet confections from the plane of candy known as the
Para-Elemental Plane of Molasses.
Gloppy is a difficult entity to describe. He seems to assemble himself from the very semi-liquid substances of his plane, hence why it is also known by other titles such as
Gloppy the Chocolate Monster. His preferred form is that of a runny messy glob of the delicious syrupy substance which inhabits his realm. From his central form two arms and crudely shaped hands occasionally sprout. Two creamy-white eyes usually adorn the top of his globular form, which stared into reveal as small trance of possible intelligence.
Gloppy cares little for the conflict between the
Princes of Elemental Evil and
Elemental Princes of Good. Instead the Princess of good and evil archomentals place it among the other unsided arcomentals
[Bwimb: Prince of Ooze Creatures,
Chlimbia: Prince of Magma Creatures, and
Ehkahk: Prince of Smoke Creatures, although it is not certain whether
Gloppy acknowledges this. Out of all the archomentals, Bwimb is the only one he regularly associates with, and the only one who could be considered his ally.
It is debated whether
Gloppy can be classified an ooze, or anything at all for that matter. However, the candy oozes of the plane of candy seem to have an instinctual attraction and fondness for this creature, if that accounts for anything.
Portfolio: Candy, water.
Domains: Candy, Ooze, Water.
Clergy:
Gloppy posses no known clergy. Whether gloppy has any mortal, or even elemental followers is uncertain. However his quasi-divine power and domains have long since been documented, so at least at some point in the distant past there must have been at least a handful of elemental clerics patroned by it.
Quests:
It is uncertain what quests this creature would ask of a follower, if any at all.
Rites:
What rites clergy of a being like
Gloppy would have is uncertain, and in fact has become somewhat of a joke among the other archomentals and the sentient residents of candyland.
Relationships:
Being a truly neutral being
Gloppy has never sided with either the
Princes of Elemental Evil and
Elemental Princes of Good. So far it has shown little interest in planer affairs, and does not even seem concerned about it's own para-elemental plane.
It is occasionally seen in the company of
Bwimb, and sightings of both entities have been reported on each others' para-planes, as well as on the
Elemental Plane of Water. Whether these beings are allies, or even truly communicate on some level, is uncertain.
Gloppy's Realm:
Though his dominion over it is not official, or even apparently enforced by the creature, most consider the
Para-Elemental Plane of Molasses to be
Gloppy's realm.
This para-elemental plane lies in the border between the
Elemental Plane of Candy and the
Elemental Plane of Water. It resembles bottomless mucky swamp of gooey confections from the plane of candy which have either been water downed or melted by it's proximity to the plane of water. Depending on where you go the where you are the sticky substance beneath your feet can be of numerous substances, such as melted chocolate, molasses, gooey marshmallows, and many others. Sparsely scattered across the plane you can find hammocks of undissolved candy soil, usually with certain verities of deep-rooting plants from the
Elemental Plane of Candy growing atop them.
This para-elemental plane is a prime habitat for candied oozes, as well as certain verities of other oozes. There have been reports of para-elementals existing here, but whether these stories is true is uncertain.
Herald and Allies:
Gloppy has no known Herald. However, it is occasionally spotted in the company of a semi-sentient (Int 9) colossal
Black Pudding (of 20HD) which follows it around, and seemingly obeys it's instructions.
