The gelatinous cube, b, is an amoeboid monster in NetHack. Unlike the Dungeons & Dragons creature from which it is derived, it has no means to engulf the player; however it still possesses the means to paralyze the unwary. Their corpses are acidic, but may also provide fire/cold/shock/sleep resistance.
Gelatinous cubes are noteworthy in that as they move they will eat organic items they pass over and engulf most other items (exceptions being rocks or a punished player's iron ball and chain) which are then placed into the cube's inventory. They are thus useful for cleaning useless items out of a level, and the bane of stashes.
