" 404 - Blob, the Fire Mage. "

What the ... My Bag is vanishing ... There goes my dream to collect all there is ... and my shape is ... melting ???

No arms, no legs, no tentacles ... Nice mission system ... What I can do now ? Let me see if I find something ...

_Name: Blob, _shapeshifter known as flesh by adventurers.

Weakness: Fire.

ranged damage: None

Skill: regenerate 10 HP per second while not on fire

Skill: create weapons that can deal piercing, slashing, or bludgeoning damage, requires being solid.

Skill: turn body into liquid and still move, while liquid all damage taken is reduced by 50%

Skill: take the shape of any creature that tasted, requires being solid.

Confusing ... but there is no other way ... for now ... As a mimic, I can play Blob, while I think a way to revert to my normal form ... Noises ... Adventurers are coming ... and they can Blog like free xp for them ... not today. Assume form ... of a the Heroine ... This is going to be fun ... for me. Let me see my guests ...

One has plate armour ... probably a Knight ... as long he has no magic or some Fire scrolls ... is easy to beat ... The other has ... a robe ... and a staff ... a mage ... And Fireball is a basic spell ... Normally I'll attack the stronger ... but this time I'm Blob ... so is best to take out the mage first ... and remove the Fire magic from the field ...

That was the plan ... but even with the body of a Champion ... my speed is slow, and the Knight is charging ... But needs more training ... I can side-step, change my hand into a spike ... and stab him ... Seems to work ... Aaah ...

Pain ... burning ... but not too much ... the mage got the instincts but lack the power ... Both are weak, and lack experience ... Let me express my gratitude, and teach you how to fight properly. Turn my other hand into a blade, and swing. Robes against blades ... welcome to my world. Now the Knight ... Can't move much ... Did I stab him to hard ? Os he is that weak ? Forget that ... his sword is burning ... And here he comes ...

Not this time, I already know your one move ... sidestep, and another stab, now deeper ... Not giving up, and using the same attack ? Thank you. Sidestep, stab ... And one more time ... Down he goes ... And something is happening.

My body feels ... better ... and I gained a new skill ? Let me check it ...

Eat knowledge: absorb the brain of any creature to take the intelligence once per week.

Basic Magic: fireball, magic missile, telepathy, heal other.

Heal other ... Why do I want to do that ??? I want to her myself first ... Need to eat a Cleric ... Since I'm a Mage now, I'll take the staff. And the rest ... I have some kind of invisible backpack called inventory ... perfect to store an armour, a magic sword, and the few gold pieces they had ... And since I'm a mage ... let me use that robe also.

There ... all set. A mimic, playing a Blob, in the form of a mage ... this is getting hard to resume ... So let me ignore it for a while ... Adventurers normally have some kind of map ... But I don't have it ... so let me walk ... screams ...

Screams are always good, they are made by someone ... But why she is running towards me ??? Normally they do that with a blade on their hands ... Pointy ears ... An elf ... hiding behind me ... Ah, yes ... You heard about the fame of Blob the Fire Mage ... and two idiots come forward ... probably slaves of their desires ...

" Lucky day ... Try to get an elf, and score a mage as a bonus. "

Bonus ? Me ? I'm going to enjoy this ... I have no interest to play a Hero, but is always good to test my new power in volunteers ... Two ... one eats a fireball, the other is for my telepathy ... It worked ... the one under my mind is moving away, like I ordered ... the other one is screaming enjoying the bonus of a mage. That's it, roll on the floor, and since you are still here ... Sweet brains ... Oh ... my INT is increasing ... and let me loot all you have ... there you go. All inside my inventory to check after ... Why the Elf is getting closer ? I'm eating ... Go ahed, talk ... I'll check my loot while you table on my might ...

inventory: 27 gold coins, leather armour, short coper sword, 1 health potion

Potions ... always wanted them ... But where is the rest ? My armour, and my magic sword ??? Well, I'll find them eventually, or take something similar from another Knight ...
