The Poison and Sharpness effects remain unchanged.Indissoluble (Ex): The mercury cube completely heals all damage (except Acid damage) at the end of every round, as if it had infinite Regeneration. If reduced to 0 hit points (or less) by any means other than Acid, the mercury cube is not destroyed, but only out of commission and incapacitated until the end of that round. It starts the beginning of the next round with its full hit points. The mercury cube cannot be destroyed by brute force, only delayed.Poison (Ex): Targets wounded by the mercury cube must make a Fortitude save (DC 4,170). Primary and secondary damage are both 1 point of damage to every ability score.Quickness (Su): The mercury cube is supernaturally fast and should be treated as if constantly Hasted. This gives it an extra attack when Full Attacking, a +1 bonus to attack rolls, a +1 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves.Reconfiguration (Ex): The mercury cube can reconfigure itself once each round as a free action. Creatures engulfed by the mercury cube may, once each round as a full-round action, attempt to escape from the cube with a successful Intelligence check (DC 35). Success indicate they escape the cube, exiting the cube's fighting space into an open square of the cube's choice. Failure indicates they remained trapped within the cube. Failure by 20 or more indicates that the engulfed subjects not only remain trapped, but during their escape fall prey to some form of trap or ambush, and suffer 20d6 Slashing, piercing, bludgeoning, fire, or electricity damage (cube's choice). There is no save to negate this damage. Further, as long as the cube has 23,200 or more hit points remaining, it heals 8,320 hit points of damage each round it reconfigures itself (though this is largely irrelevant in the face of its Indissoluble ability, it does heal Acid damage and is therefore not completely pointless to the cube).Sentinels (Su): At the behest of it's creator, once per round, as a free action, a mercury cube can manufacture 1 mercury sentinel, 2 mercury golems, or 4 mercury guardians.Sharpness (Su): Any attack by the mercury cube scoring a natural 20 (and confirming the critical hit) will sever one of the opponent's appendages. Roll randomly to determine which appendage is severed. For humanoids roll a d12: 1-2 head, 3-4 left arm, 5-6 right arm, 7-8 torso, 9-10 left leg, 11-12 right leg. Creatures with multiple heads, more limbs, tails, or wings may add extra variables. Creatures with appendages too thick to be severed with one blow are unaffected by this ability, though it is conceivable that multiple Sharpness attacks on the same appendage could still sever it (DM's discretion).Tractor Beam (Su): Once per round, as a standard action, the mercury cube may attempt a ranged touch attack at +6,130 to hit against any foe within 17.5 miles. If this touch attack hits, the foe must make an opposed strength check against the mercury cube or be pulled 1250 ft towards the cube, +50 ft per 5 points by which the cube exceeds the foe's result. Foes pulled into the mercury cube's square are engulfed within it and cannot easily escape (see Reconfiguration ability, above).It's tough for a monster with a negative AC to be scary, but I think the Mercury Cube accomplishes it...</blockquote>
