Alkali Salt
Protecting Gear Against Ooze Acid
Dungeon Denizens Revisited
These tiny granules can be dissolved in water, creating a slimy material used to coat metallic items such as weapons or armor. Such a coating neutralizes the metal-eating acid of black puddings and gray oozes, protecting the item from 1d3 contacts with an ooze’s acidic touch.
Create: Craft (alchemy) DC 20
Using it: Before facing a black pudding or gray ooze, coat the metal equipment you most need to protect. Track the 1d3 acid contacts; once those are spent, the coating offers no further protection. See the ooze bestiary for the creatures that make this protection useful.
