The jelly is a monster class that appears in NetHack, and is represented by the lowercase j glyph (j). Jellies are designated internally by the macro S_JELLY.[1]
The class contains the following monsters:[2]
Common traits
Jellies are neutral monsters that are amorphous, mindless and unbreathing. Each jelly has a passive attack that triggers in response to melee attacks.
The ochre jelly is the only jelly that is not sessile and able to engulf other monsters.

Generation
Randomly-generated jellies are always created hostile.
The jelly is the second quest monster class for Knights, and makes up 6⁄175 of the monsters that are randomly generated on the Knight quest. A few jellies are also generated on some levels of the quest below the home floor at level creation: two are generated on the locate level, and one is generated on the goal level.
