Look for Levi Combs of Planet X Games and all of the Independent Publishers Union at the North Texas RPG Con this weekend.
This primeval room of stone has jagged, ornamental spikes protruding from the floor, and a jar dispenser at each door. Hundreds of bulging, slimy polyps hang from the ceiling.
Inside a polyp: Roll a d6: 1) Green slime 2) Ochre jelly 3) Gak: makes you hallucinate that your friends are zombies and you’re on a game show. The rest are filled with a chainsaw wielding villain 4) Pot bellied butcher wearing your flayed face 5) Child-sized pig-headed creep 6) Foxy gogo dancer with a chainsaw leg.
Three spigots: Each gargoyle-faced spigot has a vat on top where you are to place a green slime, ochre jelly and gak respectively. When each vat is filled, turn the spigot’s massive stone wheel (strength check) to process the ooze. It moves through runic circle grooves into a crucible that builds a chainslime.
Chainslime: Stick a limb into the chainslime and it permanently attaches. This symbiotic chainsaw has a whirling blade of slime and three modes: green slime, ochre jelly or gak. This intelligent weapon psychically bonds to you and is your new little globby friend.
