This unfortunate creature’s main skill is hiding. It’s second primary skill is absorbing. A gota looks like a large, blobular lump of jello, with tentacles that it can use to grab. It frequently hangs out in tall grasses, intending to trap its meat. If a deer or cow or human accidentally steps into the gel, it sticks. It begins to numb and then slowly suck the prey in.
Its organs float inside, giving it an odd appearance. They are slow moving, but can be difficult to escape from once they’ve latched onto you. In addition, swords, arrows, etc. don’t work well, as they just absorb the weapons. Weapons only work if they hit a key organ, like the brain.
These gargs are disturbing to look at and a bit gross, really. If they are good for anything, no one has figured it out yet. Food, definitely not. Weapons—not as far as anyone can tell. Because the gel causes a numbing sensation, some have suggested that it might have be useful as an anesthetic, but no one has quite figure it out yet.
Recommendation: watch your step!
