Slime

'Slime' is the proper Neo-English term for nuclear waste. It serves as lifeblood, strength, and money to your average citizen of NLACakaNM. As such, slime is a highly valuable substance. It is equally abundant. Underground, an endless maze of mines produces the stuff 24/7. Residents sometimes refer to NLACakaNM as "Slime City" due to this. It is a lubricant that can be controlled by the mysterious Obelisk, Endless War.

= Mechanics = Juveniles could enter #the-mines to !mine for slime. Rowdys and Killers could not mine. However they could do something Juvies couldn't. Spar. Both of these activities generated slime at a linear pace. On the other hand, all players except Staydeads could invest in the Slimeconomy. Wise investing lead to exponential growth, so this proved to be by far the dominant method of accruing wealth.

Slime could be used to purchase food and drink in #the-food-court as well as feed the dangerous habits of gambling addicts at #the-casino. The only other purpose, outside of gang violence, was social esteem, power, and just seeing numbers go up.

For the purposes of gang violence, slime served as both HP and fuel for attacks. While the victor of a fight would receive the slime of their defeated opponent, and potentially a bounty of Slimecoin, almost every fight would still end with the winner having less slime than before.

Players' slime levels were determined by the number of digits in the highest number of slime they had held at one time since last revival. Each level increase would give a boost to your attack power and increase the amount of slime required to attack tenfold. Wealthy players tended to not engage in combat due to how costly it would be to do so. = Slime Properties =

Strengths
Slime gives its user increased speed, intelligence and endurance. Slime is a malleable substance, able to fuse with organic, inorganic, or even meta-physical concepts. It can give life to slime based organisms and revive the dead. Long dead dinosaurs can revive if enough slime comes in contact with their fossils. Slime is a potent power source. With enough slime, you can release energy in a concentrated beam, like [[Endless War| Endless War's|| bone hurting beam.

Weaknesses
Slime is, however, radioactive material, and is highly toxic. While it will rarely kill its host, it will inflict sicknesses, birth defects, cancer and mutations. The only cure to the pain is either death or consuming more slime in hopes of being immune to the pain and suffering.

Bicarbonate soda can disintegrate slime, often killing the host. Maple Syrup can be fused with Bicarbonate Soda take make a much more powerful substance that can destroy slime almost instantaneously.

Slime hosts are susceptible to ghosts, who can !haunt and convert slime into Negaslime. Negaslimeoids can make slime inert, killing or forcing slime hosts into stasis.

Slime States
Slime is a versatile substance that can fuse itself with other elements. Goo, Ooz, Grime and Sludge are all sub-lubricants. "Pure" slime is very viscous. The less pure, the more watery slime is.

The Slime in the Slime Sea has a high acidic level, possibly making it impossible to collect or swim in. The slime has to seep into the earth before it is safe enough to collect. Thus mining is the most common means of obtaining slime.

If slime is put under enough pressure, it can be condensed in a crystal like form known as a Poudrin. While mostly found in underground, Poudrins have been known to form in watery bodies of slime.

High levels of energy can be extracted from slime, powering machinery, magic or even concentrated beams. These beams are powerful enough to instantly zuck slime hosts.

There is an unknown connection between Slime, quantum manipulation, and even time travel. It is unclear if it is the Slime itself, or one of the many eldritch powers of Endless War.
