Characteristics

Shellie's mother is an orange slime similar in appearance to a She-slime that protect themselves with a spiral shell resembling a white Neptunea antiqua. Their shells make the slimes appear as though they have a motherly beehive hairdo on their heads. The shells of Shellie's mothers lack the sharp spines seen on those of shell slimes as they do not wish to harm their children. However, the motherly slimes are known to call down bolts of lightning when threatened.
