Description & Connections
A hovering beast possessed of a supple, bell-shaped body. The hypnotic undulations by which it propels itself through the air are majestic to behold. Not so majestic, however, is its barb-ringed maw, wherefrom a noxious digestive fluid is fountained forth in copious volumes. Travelers who would admire the amoeban are advised to do so from a distance, lest they gain unfortunate first-hand knowledge of the creature's capricious temperament.

Ephemeral Amoebans occasionally spawn near the other monsters in Abyssea areas with a visible earth or dark aura. These absorb earth or dark elemental damage, respectively.

Derivations

An amoeba (pronounced uh-MEE-buh) is any of several tiny, one-celled protozoa in the phylum (or primary division of the animal kingdom) Sarcodina. Amoebas live in freshwater and salt water, in soil, and as parasites in moist body parts of animals. They are composed of cytoplasm (cellular fluid) divided into two parts: a thin, clear, gel-like outer layer that acts as a membrane (ectoplasm); and an inner, more watery grainy mass (endoplasm) containing structures called organelles. Amoebas may have one or more nuclei, depending upon the species. The word amoeba comes from a Greek word meaning "to change."
