The door opens easily under Bran's hand. Within he sees the following:

Most of the floor of this room is covered with a slimy green goo. The only part not so covered is a small 4-foot-square stone platform raised 2 feet off the floor, located against the east wall. Cemented to the platform is a stone chest shaped like a 3-foot cube. The entire ceiling is a dull black.

"Ahhhh, our firs' mimic was wonderin' when we'd see one"

((are all of you standing on the threshold, entering the room, or staying in the hall?))

Bran pauses in the doorway and looks over the green slime on the floor with disgust “If those things were the chambermaids, they missed a room.  What a mess.”  He calls for Perner “Bring that ten foot pole you have over here, I don’t like the looks of this stuff.”

(Bran will stay in the threshold for now, trying to figure out what the goo is.  Does he see any other exits from the room based on his visual search from last post?)

The only exit from the room is the threshold Bran is standing in.

Ooc// as I recall vinny has it. If I am wrong then disregard this post.

"Ask vinny I 'anded it ta him"

Ooc// Perner is following Bran and will now cast guidance on him (+1d4)

Vinny looks at the pole and then at the goop and then at the pole again.

”Here ya go.” Vinny says as he hands over the pole to Bran.

The door where Bran is standing is in the north-western corner of the room. The room looks itself to be a 20ft  by 20ft length and width. To reach the box pedestal on the other side of the room would be greater than 20ft and at an angle. Bran could prod things in the room, but probably could not reach the pedestal using the pole.

“Let’s just see if we can figure out what this green goo is..” Bran stays in the threshold and pushes the tip of the ten foot pole through some of the green slime on the floor, attempting to see if it interacts with the pole in any way (does it burn or eat away at the pole, grip the pole, or just push out of the way), or if it triggers something else to happen in the room.

Bran places the tip of the ten-foot pole about five feet away from him and pushes at the goo. The tip slides very easily, feeling like it is sinking into very loose mud. As Bran draws back the pole tip to see better how the pole may have moved the slime, he realizes to his dismay that the pole did not sink, but rather has been eaten away as by a strong acid. Tendrils of acidic fumes are all that remain about the stump of the pole which is now just a five-foot pole.

"I can teleport someone over to the pedistal..." Veil speaks up as she glances into the room. "Likely would need to be careful not to let you land in that gunk though..."

She can cast Vortex Warp and teleport someone over to the pedistal, then use it again to teleport them back away from it again. Thoughts?

Perner views the disintegration of the pole with a grin and crouches by the edge of the acid, then dips the tip of a vial from his bag into it, and also pouring a small amount of oil from a flask into the acid a foot or so away

As Pernier attempts to collect the acid from the floor, he sees that the slime is actually an organism which appears to excrete the acid. The slime sticks to the glass vial and is difficult to collect.

((Roll a d20 to see how he does.))

When he pours the oil onto the slime, it just pools there.

Ooc// I want trying to collect it just check if it would eat through glass

But perner will try to collect four vials of the acidic slime

The pool of oil begins to bubble as the acid reacts with it.

Pernier notices that the acid from the slime does not seem to interact with the glass of his vials. He successfully collects two vials of the green slime, however when trying to collect two more, he accidently makes contact with the slime which sticks to him and burns him with it's caustic acid: 2 x 5hp damage assuming he takes an action to wipe the slime off of him into the floor. Otherwise, the slime continues to burn...

Perner wipes the acid onto the floor then pockets the full vials and cleans out the empty ones with a bit of water from his waterskin

“I was afraid of that” Bran looks at the end of the now five foot pole glumly “Sorry, Perner, broke your toy.”  He watches curiously as Perner collects the acid and pours the flask of oil onto the goo. “Do you think we can burn it?”

Bran looks over at Veil “Teleport sounds good, it should be someone who can open that chest.  We got anyone who can do it?”

"I mean. Mebbe we could burn et but I was checkin if,n its lighter er no' see in as it's a goo it don matter tho. An don worry yersel about th pole. They break real easy"

Perner begins to cast prayer of healing

“Well then, let’s see what happens”  Bran pulls out his tinderbox and kneels down in the threshold to light the pool of oil Perner placed on top of the slime, then steps back quickly, looking to see how the fire interacts with the slime. 

Perner takes a few steps away from the pool still chanting
