You're fighting Lumpy, the Sinister SauceblobYou leap from the final stepping-stone as it sinks back into the lava, and clamber up onto the rocky little island. In the center of the island, surrounded by a pool of Sinister Sauceblob, is an ancient stone altar inscribed with weakly-glowing runes that give you pause -- they seem oddly familiar, somehow. A ropy, glistening pseudopod rises out of the muck, holding a large oily-looking black candle. You intuit from its sinister appearance that it is not the usual sort of offering intended for this altar. Two more pseudopods fumble with a plastic cigarette lighter.
You suddenly recognize the altar as being an ancient Sauceror shrine, and start to ask Lumpy what the hell it thinks it's doing, but you realize that, since Lumpy can't actually speak, you're unlikely to get much exposition out of it. Fortunately, it doesn't take you long to realize that the sauceblob is attempting to desecrate the altar through some manner of dark ritual, which would allow it to consume the altar's powers. The consequences of this would no doubt be devastating.
As you rush forward, the horrible blob rumbles and seethes, and the pseudopods turn their attention to you.
Hit Message(s):
Lumpy squirts you with a jet of fluid that smells like the stuff that leaks out the bottom of the garbage bag. Argh! Eek! Ugh!
The Sauceblob swings a heavy pseudopod at you, resulting in a near-miss. By which I mean a hit. He nearly missed, though. Eek! Ugh! Eek!
While dodging a flailing pseudopod, you step in a puddle of sauceblob. It burns! Eek! Ow! Oof!
Lumpy swings a pseudopod the size and shape of a sledgehammer at you. It feels pretty much like a sledgehammer too. Eek! Eek! Oof!
The sinister Sauceblob surges over you like a tidal wave. You struggle, enveloped, and manage to free yourself before you suffocate, but not before the caustic fluids cause severe burns. Ouch! Ugh! Oof!
Lumpy squirts a stream of liquid gross at you, but you manage to jump out of the way before getting splashed.
The Sauceblob swings a heavy pseudopod at you, but you're light enough on your real feet to dodge it.
While dodging a flailing pseudopod, you narrowly avoid stepping in a puddle of sauceblob. It's like two dodges for the price of one!
Lumpy swings a pseudopod the size and shape of a sledgehammer at you. Fortunately, it just goes 'splat!', which isn't very sledgehammer-like.
You scramble backwards, and it takes a second for Lumpy to ooze back into range. (FUMBLE!)

Occurs at The Nemesis' Lair.
Notes
- Occurs after solving the lava puzzle, or choosing to skip it.
- If you lose the battle, you can try again without having to repeat the lava puzzle.
- Leads to Flying In Circles, and, subsequently, Lumpy, the Demonic Sauceblob.
- Damage Reduction acts like so:
- First, all attacks do 75% of their normal damage, rounded up.
- Afterwards, if the damage dealt from a single source would otherwise be over 100, then a soft damage cap kicks in. The resultant damage is 100 + (X-100)0.85, rounded down, where X > 100 is the damage before the soft cap.
- This monster cannot be copied.
