The typical black pudding measures 15 feet across and 2 feet thick. It weighs about 18,000 pounds.

===Combat===
A black pudding attacks by grabbing and squeezing their prey.

'''Acid ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''' The creature secretes a digestive acid that dissolves organic material and metal quickly, but does not affect stone. Any melee hit or [[SRD:Constrict|constrict]] attack deals acid damage, and the opponent’s armor and clothing dissolve and become useless immediately unless they succeed on [[SRD:DC|DC]] 21 [[SRD:Saving Throw|Reflex save]]s. A metal or wooden weapon that strikes a black pudding also dissolves immediately unless it succeeds on a [[SRD:DC|DC]] 21 [[SRD:Saving Throw|Reflex save]]. The save [[SRD:DC|DCs]] are [[SRD:Constitution|Constitution]]-based.

The pudding’s acidic touch deals 21 points of damage per [[SRD:Round|round]] to wooden or metal objects, but the [[SRD:Ooze Type|ooze]] must remain in contact with the object for 1 full [[SRD:Round|round]] to deal this damage.

'''[[SRD:Constrict|Constrict]] ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''' A black pudding deals automatic slam and acid damage with a successful [[SRD:Grapple|grapple check]]. The opponent’s clothing and armor take a –4 penalty on [[SRD:Saving Throw|Reflex save]]s against the acid.

'''[[SRD:Improved Grab|Improved Grab]] ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''' To use this ability, a black pudding must hit with its slam attack. It can then attempt to start a [[SRD:Grapple|grapple]] as a [[SRD:Free Actions|free action]] without provoking an [[SRD:Attacks of Opportunity|attack of opportunity]]. If it wins the [[SRD:Grapple|grapple check]], it establishes a hold and can [[SRD:Constrict|constrict]].

'''Split ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''' Slashing and piercing weapons deal no damage to a black pudding. Instead the creature splits into two identical puddings, each with half of the original’s current [[SRD:Hit Points|hit points]] ([[SRD:Round|round]] down). A pudding with 10 [[SRD:Hit Points|hit points]] or less cannot be further split and dies if reduced to 0 [[SRD:Hit Points|hit points]].

'''[[SRD:Skills (Creature Statistic)|Skills:]]''' A black pudding has a +8 racial bonus on [[SRD:Climb Skill|Climb]] checks and can always choose to take 10 on a [[SRD:Climb Skill|Climb]] check, even if rushed or threatened.
