Shimmer Slime

(early 1.4.4 placeholder page) Shimmer Slimes are slimes formed when any type of slime (including toxic sludges) enter shimmer. Slimes that spawn holding items (such as ores, torches, or coins) lose these items when they transform and do not drop them. Projectiles shot at the slime are also reflected back at the player similar to biome mimics. Shimmer slimes will act like any other slime by not targeting the player, unless damaged, encountered during the night, or encountered underground.

Shimmer Slimes can be encountered in pre-hardmode if underground slime such as Yellow or Mother Slime stumble into an Aether Cave Biome.

Trivia

 * The Bestiary entry for the Shimmer Slime: "After a quick swim in the Shimmer, this prismatic slime has been infused with the powers of the mysterious fluid."
