Manasynthesis. The slug can survive off of magical energy, and can detect its presence within 120 ft. If it comes within 5ft of a magical energy source, such as a Godstone, it instantly begins feeding, grows one size category bigger (allowing it to now grapple and swallow Large creatures) and gains 24 hitpoints.

Feelers. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) bludgeoning damage plus 4 (1d8) acid damage.

Swallow: The slug makes one bite Attack against a Medium or smaller target it is Grappling. If the Attack hits, the target is swallowed, and the grapple ends. The swallowed target is Restrained (but not Blinded, since the slug is translucent).

If the slug dies, or a swallowed creature deals 1 point of piercing damage to it, any swallowed creatures are no longer Restrained by it and can escape from the corpse using 5 ft. of Movement, exiting prone.
