Mezlan
A shapeshifting ooze swallows a caster's own spell on a failed save and can fling it back later, healing from anything but acid.
A cunning, spell-eating ooze that wears the shape of whatever serves it best, the mezlan flows between forms and turns a caster's own magic back against them. Acid is the only thing that keeps it from simply knitting itself whole again.
It has regeneration 15 (deactivated by acid) and a +1 status bonus to all saves against magic.
