[Pavellius]

In a dark and distant forest, a primitive blob has awoken to its unremarkable existence...


You are sitting on the ground, slowly sucking dirt particles through your acidic innards. They taste awful. As your first act of free will, you try to find something else to eat, though touch and taste are your only guides. *scoot scoot* You slide over a patch of grass and stop, because wow it's delicious! You congratulate yourself on the discovery, and wait for the meal to dissolve. +1 XP

You detect tiny particles of grass flavor in the air, along with the flavor of something new. Wood! Mushrooms! Then, a sudden wind brings with it the taste of water. More discoveries await you! +1 XP

To your surprise, the grass still hasn't digested. You want to eat it... and it suddenly dissolves! It seems your new awareness has granted you greater control over your body. You wonder what else you are capable of. +1 XP

[King Zultan]

I guess we go and eat more grass.

Also try to extend part of yourself to give you more reach, a psuedopod.

[KitRougard]

Welp, we've been reincarnated as a slime folks! Step one is to sharpen our sences, so we can maybe see later.
Think deeply about scents, wonder if we can determine our surroundings if we smell hard enough.

I've taken an interest in sympathetic mimics lately.  Let's be a mimic.

Try to imitate the most interesting thing in your environment, which is probably a mushroom.

uwu what's this? Is that a pseudopod or are you just happy to see me?
You alter your shape to form a pseudopod. No material is added or subtracted.

The 'pod absorbs a mushroom. Sour! Must be an acquired taste. Oh, that's poison. +1 XP -5 HP (5/10) On the plus side, your goo will be poisonous for a little while.

The Goo tastes all: More sour mushrooms, and some sweeter ones, can be found ahead. (Let's call this direction "Gnorth") Something is rotting some distance to the Gwest. There is a little fresh water Gwestwards, and a lot of it Antignorthwards. +1 XP

You consider the shape and composition of that nasty mushroom. - 4 XP

It's too late. You already have self-awareness!

(You only learn a little about objects from their particles, but you like to give names to the flavors.)

Your goo will lose its poisonous property after the next turn. (There will be no further damage.)

Eat some more grass to get energy, then heal our lost hitpoints! Also, see if we can digest a rock. If we can't digest it, see if we can control where it is in our form.
