Also I'm pretty sure I've seen Putnam use this sort of thing in his science mod before.

I actually took that straight out of Dwarf Chocolate, which you should totally play.

Currently, the only combustion it causes is when you pick up its remains. If a thing had a use for it, it would eventually pick it up and combust. Also, there are a bunch more varieties of slimes that I have had no issues with. For example, the 'normal' ones are green, live in forests, and (should) run away when attacked.

[WillowLuman]

Please tell me that they don't have the giant sponge problem. Do they have more than one BP? Or can they at least bleed out?

[Lost in Nowhere]

They have a brain, so that shouldn't be a problem. It wasn't in arena testing, at least.

[WillowLuman]

Well, if they've got a brain, then they can be killed in combat.

Wait, slimes with brains?

Spoiler: sorry, it reminds me (click to show/hide)

[StLeibowitz]

...is that...Wizardry 8?

[WillowLuman]

Well, what other game has brained slimes? Aside from the one we're making, of course? It just brought back memories of seeing slimes melt into a puddle, with nothing but a little brain left behind.

New idea: those are one of the sources of the gnome's accelerant for their firearms.

Thy idea hast received mine official approval.

With all the nasties inhabiting caverns, it seems to me that it's a species-wide defense mechanism.  They're bright red which is a visual warning, and probably smell pretty acrid at well, but if that doesn't dissuade them from being someone's dinner, they also blow that SOB to ribbons once their highly alkaline body tissue interacts with another creature's digestive juices.  it's sort of on the same thing as pine trees.

Pine tree needles contain natural defoliants, making sure there is no competing plant life below it. When dry, pine needles are the perfect shape and consistency to be highly flammable.  Add the extremely explosive nature of pine sap into the mix and the fact that pine cones will only germinate after their outer layers have been seared away and you have a species of tree that is a primed grenade waiting to cause massive forest fires just so that all of its competitors are burned to a nutritious ash every few years or so.

Pine trees vs. Apple trees: Ultimate Plant Warfare

[Timeless Bob]

Bet you were thinking, "The hell do pine trees have anything to do with that?!"

[WillowLuman]

Seriously, though, apple trees fill the soil around them with poison. /derail

Hey, should I work on the little people or will someone else do it for me? Not to be lazy but it turns bout better that way.
(see purple tea for details)

Also, is there a way to get a race that is immune to certain syndromes?
