A Pulax Rhizopod is a spore spear constructed of a hardened mushroom stalk with a living gray ooze trapped inside. When it hits it scores damage as if being struck by a gray ooze. On a natural 20 it delivers damage equal to being struck by a black pudding. Creatures killed from such an attack are enveloped in a 2HD green slime with maximum hit points. This green slime is free-willing and under no control of the wielder.
The spear has all the immunities of a black pudding with 80 hit points. Once the hit points are exhausted the weapon is destroyed, erupting into a cloud of spores with the effects of a gas spore.
