Green Slime (4e Hazard)

From D&D Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Green slimes are strange plant growths found in subterranean places. Although they cannot move, they slowly grow, feeding on animal, vegetable and metallic substances. They are sensitive to vibrations and will often drop upon passing creatures from above.

Green slime turns flesh into more green slime, dissolves metal quickly and wood slowly.

In this hazard, 4 connected squares have green slime in the cave or dungeon ceiling above. When disturbed, the whole mass drops down.
