Sludges that emerge from the primordial soup will also gain a [[Liquid Spitter|liquid spitting]] ability, similar to but not the same as {{favilink|Slog of the Cloaca}}'s spitting ability. This has a range of 8 tiles and will spit a liquid in a 3x3 area. The liquid has a 20% chance of being the first liquid that the sludge has absorbed (unless it is {{favilink|cloning draught}}, in which case | Sludges that emerge from the primordial soup will also gain a [[Liquid Spitter|liquid spitting]] ability, similar to but not the same as {{favilink|Slog of the Cloaca}}'s spitting ability.

These liquids are not considered poured and thus do not become salty when spawned unless one of the liquids absorbed was salt. | ||
Soupy sludges start with 4 pseudopods, [[cudgel]] weapons that do {{heart}}{{dice tooltip|4d4}} damage and have a +6 to-hit bonus, but can grow more as more liquids are absorbed. Each of a soupy sludge's pseudopods have a 100% chance to attack in melee, meaning it will attack with all of its pseudopods at once when making a melee attack. This, combined with the cudgel's ability to [[dazed|daze]], can cause a creature to become [[stunned|stunlocked]]. | Soupy sludges start with 4 pseudopods, [[cudgel]] weapons that do {{heart}}{{dice tooltip|4d4}} damage and have a +6 to-hit bonus, but can grow more as more liquids are absorbed.

Depending on the number of [[liquid]]s a sludge has absorbed, the name of the sludge will change. This is in addition to the liquid stained prefixes that the sludge will have. This rename will overwrite custom names if the soupy sludge was renamed.

* Pouring liquids cause them to become salty, so letting them absorb salt first may be a good idea just in case the sludge absorbs the salt instead of your intended liquid.

* Giving them acid pseudopods may provide harmful due to acid possibly harming gear and items. This effect can be lessened if the player has perfect acid resist and/or no feet like after eating the [[Cloaca Surprise]] or has [[Lacquered]] all of their gear. | * Giving them acid pseudopods may provide harmful due to acid possibly harming gear and items.
