LOST WORM TEMPLE 3 ROOM OF THE GRAY POOL.

3 ROOM OF THE GRAY POOL. This room holds a large pool of gray syrupy liquid. If swallowed this stuff will cause the kiss of the worm god, as mentioned in Room 63 of the Upper Dungeons Level Three of Castle Triskelion. Two gray oozes have been attracted to the pool, as they find its taste to their liking. They have swelled to great size.

2 Giant Gray Oozes (AC 8; MV 1”; HD 6+6; hp 28, 36; #AT 1; D 2-16; SA Corrosive properties; SD Psionics, Immune to spells, heat, cold; Size L; XP 999, 1063)

Each is psionically aware and will attack with a psychic crush attack if psionics are used near them. The 28 point ooze attacks with a 93 point strength, the 36 point ooze with 71 points.

The ceiling height is thirty feet and there are large holes (up to 1' in diameter) here and there in the upper reaches of the walls. If characters linger here, there is a 1 in 6 chance per round that 1-2 gray oozes will come from one of the holes to drink. If they are allowed to do so, they will grow to giant size and gain Psionic strength of between 21 and 121 points:

Gray Ooze (AC 8; MV 1”; HD 3+3; #AT 1; D 2-16; SA Corrosive properties; SD Immune to spells, heat, cold; XP 200 + 4/hp)

Giant Gray Ooze (AC 8; MV 1”; HD 6+6; hp 28, 36; #AT 1; D 2-16; SA Corrosive properties; SD Psionics, Immune to spells, heat, cold; Size L; XP 775 + 8/hp)

An ancient adventurer died here. His body has long since turned to dust, but he left behind a human-sized suit of plate mail +3. This is golden in color and decorated will leonine designs. Near the body there are 8 Jalluxian platinum imperials and 17 Jalluxian gold dragon coins. The bag that held these coins rotted away long ago.
