The Illuminant Slime is a Hardmode slime that spawns in the Underground Hallow. They replace normal cave Slimes (Black and Mother Slimes) in most cases. These slimes deal a large amount of damage and have more health than their Cavern counterparts. As suggested in their names, these slimes give off a small amount of light. Illuminant Slimes also leave an after-image like the Chaos Elemental and Illuminant Bat, which appears as a long, pink trail.

Like most other slimes, the Illuminant Slime will be passive towards any player with the Royal Gel(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) accessory equipped.
