Also, if there are multiple blobs, make them fight each other. Might even let the crew ally with one blob to kill a nastier blob in exchange for not being murdered.
Also, something with Genetics, like DNA is their thing, I'm surprised they already don't have a role in it. Give the blob epilepsy and a Swedish accent.
Also, blob hive mind. Next step from overmind.
