A strange shapeless life form with an orange leathery skin containing a liquid interior. It can secrete its internal fluid.

A Cave blob is a single body/cell organism found in only the deepest caverns.

Cave blobs lack any kind of internal organs and instead are filled with Cave blob fluid. Any attack that "breaks away" part of this fluid will usually kill them, as will any attack that tears or pierces their skin. Blobs need neither of these parts to live however and they can survive with no internal fluid and a totally torn apart body if they are lucky. What truly decides if they die or not is a mystery.

Harmless as they may be, it is still ill-advised to disturb them. Exposure to their secretions or contents is capable of causing mild, short-term harm in the form of painful blisters.

The only products gained by the butchering of a cave blob are a skin for your leatherworkers and a few pools of Cave blob fluid. This fluid can be drunk in Adventure mode to satiate thirst.

Note that sometimes when a cave blob is killed it will not leave a corpse, just a smear of cave blob fluid.
