You could take some of the blobbier (http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Floating_guts) creature (http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Flesh_ball) raws and modify their body material to produce your stereotypical RPG slime.

Oh, wow thanks! I'm going to try that tomorrow! Also, is there a type of diet token that allow a creature to eat everything?

I don't believe so.  No creatures in the game currently eat everything so I don't think there's a way to model that.

I know the tokens, i'm just asking if i can put TWO diet tokens in there to make it eat meat, bones, and plants.

yes. Bonecarn makes them carnivores and no_eat makes them uneating.

So basically, if i put no Tokens, then they'll eat all food?
