### Disarm (Ex)
In its ooze form, a ghaunadan can forego all attacks in a round and choose to mold itself around an opponent's weapon; when a successful attack hits the ghaunadan, the weapon sinks into its mass, but the ghaunadan then firms its skin around the weapon, trapping it. A character can make a Strength check (DC 20) to free the weapon.
### Endearing Gaze (Su)
In humanoid form, a ghaunadan has a gaze attack. Characters who meet the ghaunadan's gaze must succeed at a DC 15 Will save or regard the ghaunadan as if its Charisma were 8 points higher. This grants the ghaunadan a +4 bonus to Charisma checks and Charisma based skill checks made against the affected creature.
### Resist Blunt Weapons (Ex)
A ghaunadan's semi-liquid body takes only half damage from bludgeoning weapons.
