Ooze Nature. The sinkhole ooze doesn't require sleep.
Seizing Pseudopods. Can have up to 6 tendril-like Pseudopods at a time. Each can be attacked (AC 10; 10 hp; immunity to acid poison and psychic). Destroying Pseudopod deals no damage to ooze which can extrude a replacement on its next turn. Pseudopod can also be broken if creature takes an action and makes DC 14 Str check.

Bonus Actions
Stretch Body. Stretches body around inner walls of a pit sinkhole or other circular opening in the ground. Stretched this way it forms a hollow cylinder up to 25 ft. tall up to 25 ft. radius. Ooze can end stretch as a bonus action occupying nearest unoccupied space to the hole.
