Life Imitates The Monster Manual

WTF?

Green Slimes, Ochre Jellies, Gray Oozes, and now … Corrosive Goop.

He flew home from a four-day business trip to find his new car covered from hood to taillights with a strange, corrosive, white gunk.

"It looked like bird manure, but like 500 birds, it was so much,"…

"It ate through the paint on my 1-day-old car. I had to have the windows replaced, because it took the laminate off the glass."

Like most such monsters, the Corrosive Goop lives in dark caverns, oozes between walls, and can be difficult to track … until it's too late.

    I'm waiting for mimics to figure out ATMs. Then we're really screwed.

    Fortunately, it's Treasure Type was Q, which is a new car.

    If I ever see a job posting where the compensation's given as a list of Treasure Types, I'm applying on general principle.

    I would make some lame saving throw joke, but the treasure type joke has already won.

    Speaking of not knowing the right thing to say at the right time, I'm kicking myself that I didn't title this: It is pitch black. Your car is likely to be eaten by a corrosive Grue.

    Interesting, but give me a call when a Roper attacks a subway station, or our Illithid masters come out of hiding.

    The creature that would wreak the most havoc on modern society, though, would have to be the Rust Monster.
