It is known for attacking aquatic creatures and passing ships, engulfing and dissolving them. Dark water can mainly be found throughout the seas surrounding the Isles of Merria, although it isn’t restricted to that location. Most believe that this ooze originated from somewhere around this island chain and that there is huge dark water (30 HD) living deep below the island chain. Even evil sea creatures such as kuo-toa fear dark water, as these oozes are hungry creatures that never stop consuming living creatures and objects. (Dark water can consume almost anything made out of wood or metal.) Some believe that these oozes are the creation of Turaglas, the Ebon Maw, but there isn’t any proof of this. More likely they are the creation of the chaotic evil sea god known simply as The Underdweller. [B]Combat[/B] Dark water attacks by first attempting to slam into its opponents, attempts to grapple and then constrict. Dark water has damage reduction against all weapons not made out of coral or against magic weapons. [I]Acid[/I] (Ex): Dark water secretes a digestive acid that dissolves organic material and metal quickly. Any melee hit deals acid damage. The dark water's acidic touch deals 50 points of damage per round to wood or metal objects.

A metal or wooden weapon that strikes dark water also dissolves immediately unless it succeeds at a Reflex save (DC 19). [I]Constrict[/I] (Ex): Dark water deals automatic slam and acid damage with a successful grapple check. The opponent's clothing and armor suffer a -4 penalty to Reflex saves against the acid. [I]Improved Grab[/I] (Ex): To use this ability, dark water must hit with its slam attack. If it gets a hold, it can constrict.
