Whisper slimes are a type of ooze created by mindflayers as a prank to play on other mindflayers brains (kind of like how a person could prank someone else by making their food have unwanted spices or seasonings). They prod at the ear and go in through it, going into the brain, causing insanity. Brains affected by the whisper slime taste gross to mindflayers
.
CombatWhisper slimes are less "combatants" and more "living hazards". They don't really fight, they usually drop from the ceiling
Ear prod (Ex)This attack has no Str or Dex penalties, and is only usable if the whisper slime is even remotely close to the ear, such as being on the shoulder of someone. If the attack is successful, they are affected by insanity
Insanity (Su)A person affected by ear prod has the whisper slime go into their ear, giving them the effects of the insanity spell (no save, but spell resistance or immunity applies) until the ooze is purged, which requires one of 3 things:
1: At least 2 points of electricity damage done to the host
2: cure disease
3: purge, new spell shown below
