Despite its popularity (or perhaps because of it), the
gelatinous cube is also widely known as one of the sillier
role-playing monsters. It is something of a commentary on the
ubiquity of treasure-laden dungeons in the Dungeons & Dragons
universe, as the cube is a creature specifically adapted to a
dungeon ecosystem. 10 feet to the side, it travels through
standard 10-foot by 10-foot dungeon corridors, cleaning up
debris and redistributing treasure by excreting indigestible
metal items.
