Mindless and voracious, the Reducing Blobs of Ain 4 are deranged bio-components of out-dated and spoiled terraforming systems run amok. These amorphous creatures occupy themselves dissolving and breaking-down the metallic elements of the various ruins scattered across the wastelands of this toxic, mostly abandoned world. If exposed to intense flame, they explode doing 6d6 to everyone within a 300' radius due to the extremely volatile chemistry of their unnatural metabolisms.

Xenobiologists at the local micro-campus maintained by offworld NGOs as a charity-effort believe that the Reducing Blobs can be captured and put to use for a number of industrial applications, such as possibly serving as domesticated oxygen-producing systems or living waste-reclamation mechanisms. It is also theorized that it may be possible to extract dissolved metals from the intestinal slurry of the Reducing Blobs, making it possible to mine them after a fashion, though no one has tested this wild scheme as of yet...
