| Reference | monst.c#line151 |
The quivering blob, b, is an amoeboid monster in NetHack. Lika all blobs, Quivering blob corpses are considered vegan, and can safely be eaten without breaking any food-related conduct. Eating a quivering blob corpse provides 100 nutrition and has a 33% chance of conferring poison resistance. Perhaps unusually as monsters go, there are no special cases in the source code with respect to quivering blobs; all the information about them is given by their status as a blob, and their stats.
Quivering blobs are extremely slow, meaning that they attack infrequently, and cause only minor damage even when they do attack; thus, they are generally considered to not be much of a threat. (Unlike most amoeboid monsters, they do not cause passive damage when attacked.) They also die quickly to most sources of damage; thus, their major tactical and strategic influence on the game is to be eaten for their relatively large chance of conferring poison resistance.
