Rolls around deflecting bullets

Viscous vexes his opponents through clever evasion and strategic uses of healing, enabling him to withstand the most brutal of enemy attacks.

A psychic sea anemone with an ectoplasmic goo body, Viscous is a vexing opponent with versatile goo abilities. He can Splatter his foes with a large ball of goo and Puddle Punch both allies and enemies to knock them around, while encasing himself or allies in a Cube of goo for protection. For maximum disruption, Viscous can morph into a large Goo Ball and bounce off of walls and enemies alike.

Viscous is a vigilante sea anemone that fears a dark, dangerous predator that prowls the depths under the Bermuda Triangle. He reached the surface in a body built from ectoplasmic goo; his mission to summon the Patrons to protect his home in the Deep.

Viscous's gun has an alt-fire mode.

Background

“

The Bermuda Triangle was never a myth, it was a shadowline nexus deep underneath the Atlantic Ocean. For the most part, the things that escaped this astral gate were benign (like Nessie), but now something dark and predatory hunts the seas... and its denizens are scared to death.

One of those inhabitants, a psychic sea anemone, wants to do something about it. Psychically building itself an ectoplasmic goo body so it can survive on the surface, Viscous desperately is trying to summon The Patrons to keep The Deep safe from the adversary that lurks below.
