  In Dark Shadows
  Slimed!!!
  
  Information
  In dark shadows through the alleyways and underneath the sewer grates a dark ritual has 
  begun. Cultists, worshippers of a sludge demon, chant unknown words in their grating voices. In the 
  middle of the circle their leader, nailed to a pillar, continuously chants the words, “Gravi derelinquere 
  caen.” Suddenly, the chanting stops but only to be replaced by the leader’s screams of agony. Slime 
  begins to pour from the leader’s ears, eyes and mouth; spilling onto the ground beneath him. A crack 
  and then a burst as slime pours from the leader’s chest cavity. Beneath the dead leader emerges 
  a large green hand made of slime. It wraps its dripping fingers around the corpse and rips it from 
  the stake. The leader, now being submerged in the slime, has become one with the slime. Slime 
  tendrils shoot forth from the pool of slime striking the rest of the cultists. Growing with each cultist 
  consumed, the Slime Lord consumes the final worshipper before making his way above ground. 
  Always hungry. Always growing. The Slime Lord lurking in dark shadows.
  Setting
  Slimed!!! takes place in a slum section of the city. Buildings with rooms dripping with slime and 
  alleyways turned into rivers of slime. Slime Minds and Slime Creeps travel throughout this section, 
  while Slime Minds often travel outside of the slimed section to further expand their ever-growing 
  territory. The sewers and some of the lower levels of buildings tend to be flooded in slime and Slime 
  Creeps. The Slime Lord central area is within a, now consumed, hotel.
  Slime
  When a character comes in contact with slime, whether being damaged by a slime creature or 
  treading through slime, they must make a physique save or suffer the effects of the slime. For each 
  failed save add 1 to the die result.
