The mydnari and its jelly are wholly reliant on each other. If the mydnari\xe2\x80\x99s jelly is somehow separated from its master, the jelly dies within 1 minute. If the mydnari is separated from its jelly, it loses its  blindsight , Acid Glob action, and Jelly Symbiosis trait. \n'b'  Jelly Symbiosis . A creature that touches the mydnari or hits it with a  melee attack  while within 5 feet of it takes 2 (1d4) acid damage. \n'b'  Ooze Empathy . A mydnari can use its  Animal Handling  skill on ooze type creatures with an  Intelligence  score of 5 or lower. An ooze never attacks a mydnari unless provoked. \n'b'\n'b' Actions \n'b'\n'b'  Shortsword .  Melee Weapon Attack : +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target.

Hit : 5 (1d4 + 3) acid damage, and the target must succeed on a DC 12  Constitution  saving throw or be  poisoned  for 1 minute. The target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. \n'b'\n'b' About \n'b' This tall, lanky humanoid is sightless, its eyes nothing more than useless spots in its otherwise human face. The creature is encased in a sheath of thick orange jelly, almost as if it had been dipped in a giant pot of honey. The jelly wobbles and slides over the creature\xe2\x80\x99s body as if alive. \n'b'  Sightless Alchemists . The mydnari are an eyeless, evil subterranean race that lives alongside oozes. They delight in capturing other creatures and using the creatures for experimentation or as food for their colonies of oozes and slimes. They constantly experiment with new serums, tonics, and concoctions, striving to always improve themselves and their connection with their oozes. \n'b'  Bound in Jelly . Each mydnari enters into a symbiotic relationship with a mutated strain of  ochre jelly  as soon as it is born. This is a sacred rite among the mydnari, and without this link a mydnari is cast out and soon succumbs to the elements.\xc2\xa0The mydnari provides long-term sustenance for the jelly, and the jelly provides the sightless mydnari with protection and the ability to better sense its environment. \n'b'  Oozing Cities . The cities of the mydnari are dominated by flowing spires and twisting walkways, and they are always bathed in a sickly yellow-green radiance. Oozes and slimes are found almost everywhere, whether simply wandering along the street to clean up refuse or serving as living baths for mydnari nobles. Their cities also boast a large section dedicated to alchemy, and the sulfurous and sometimes noxious odors from the many alchemical labs float through the city for all to smell. \n'b'  Detested Necessity . The mydnari are viewed with revulsion by  duergar  and other subterranean races who rely on their alchemy. Only derro and aboleths are known to tolerate the mydnari for any length of time. \n'b'  Oozebound Nature . A mydnari doesn\xe2\x80\x99t require sleep.'
