Time for me to stop lurking, & say something. :-)

No, it's not an amoeba. It would have organelles (nucleus, mitochondria, etc.) then. They're described in River Of Cradles as "like a bag of water without the bag". Not even a membrane holding them together. Magical. Creatures of Pocharngo The Mutator. Perhaps gorp are Chaos elementals?
Giant amoeba would be creatures of the god/goddess of protozoa.
Not Swems (goddess of worms), but her mother. A Darkness or Water deity,
I remember.
