WizKids have a usual addition to their D&D Icons of the Realms with the Slime Lord Juiblex.
In 5e-talk, this slime has a CR 23, which fits a demon lord from the Shedlakah realm in the Abyss.
The shapelessness of this horror is an echo of the corruption of the Abyss, it is said. Even among other demons, the Faceless Lord is vilified.
WizKids say;
Juiblex called the Faceless Lord and the Oozing Hunger in ancient grimoires, Juiblex is demon lord of slime and ooze, a noxious creature that doesn’t care about the plots and schemes of others of its kind. It exists only to consume, digesting and transforming living matter into more of itself.
A true horror, Juiblex is a mass of bubbling slime, swirling black and green, with glaring red eyes floating and shifting within it. It can rise up like a 20-foot hill, lashing out with dripping pseudopods to drag victims into its bulk. Those consumed by Juiblex are obliterated.
But they also say the demon lord is a perfect gift… and, mhmm, maybe they’re right. It would undoubtedly stand out on a shelf!
Speaking of standing, the model is 8 x 5.5 x 5 inches. That’s pretty impressive.
You can buy the Ooze from WizKids directly for about $75. I don’t yet spot the model on Amazon but do on Walmart, albeit it with a 1st of March wait.
