Rather than a vial of corrosive acid, this vial contains a powerfully caustic base. As an action, you can splash the base in this vial onto a creature or object within 5 feet of you or throw the vial up to 20 feet, shattering it on impact. Make a ranged attack against a target creature or object, treating the vial as an improvised weapon.
The base evaporates after 1 minute. The first time a creature or object covered in the base takes any acid damage before then, it is immune to that instance of acid damage, and the base evaporates. Any contact between the base and acid immediately neutralizes both substances, leaving only a foamy, salty liquid behind. If an ooze makes contact with the base, the ooze takes 11 (2d10) damage, and a permanent and cumulative -1 penalty to its Constitution and Strength scores, and the base is neutralized. If this causes the ooze's Constitution score to become 10 or less, the ooze dies.
If the base comes into contact with oil, the substances combine and expand into a large soapy pile, covering twice the area the base would normally cover, and neutralizing both substances in the area. Any fires in that area are immeditaely extinguished, and flammable objects and subtances in that area become unflammable until the soap is wiped away.
