Acid blob
From TheKolWiki
 You're fighting an acid blobThis is a creature that appears to be made of quivering, acidic goo. It leaves little etch-marks in the floor as it slides toward you, with the intent to leave big etch-marks in you.
Hit Message(s):
It etches you in the <ankle>. Sketchy. Argh! Eek! Ugh! Ooh!
It slides over and dissolves your <ankle>. Man, I hope that grows back. Oof! Oof! Oof! Argh! Ouch!
Critical Hit Message:
It envelops your head and eats away most of your scalp. Hey, at least you won't have dandruff anymore! Eek! Eek!
Miss Message(s):
It tries to etch you, but can't seem to connect. Sketchy.
It starts to dissolve you, but you quickly put on a yarmulke and braid your hair. No acidic goo for Hasidic Jews, after all.
Fumble Message:
It tries to steamroll over you, but manages only to etch "NO KILL I" in the floor with its acid. How confusing.
Occurs in The Dungeons of Doom.
Notes
- A successful attack with your weapon has a chance of corroding your weapon:
You are splashed by the acid blob's acid. Your weapon corrodes...
References
- The attack messages "It etches you..." and "It tries to etch you...", each followed by "Sketchy", are a reference to the children's toy Etch-A-Sketch.
- As with everything else that occurs in the Dungeons of Doom, this is a reference to the computer game NetHack.
- "NO KILL I" is a reference to the Star Trek episode "The Devil in the Dark", in which a blob like alien called a Horta secretes acid to write the words "NO KILL I."
- It is also a reference to the fact that you can be protected from monster attacks in NetHack if you engrave the word "ELBERETH" on the ground where you're standing.
