The green slime is a seemingly innocuous creature found only in Gehennom. It is slow and weak, but its touch slimes unwary adventurers, a delayed instadeath if not cured. Eating the corpse will also slime you.

Being slimed ends your game; however, you can safely polymorph into a green slime and play as one that way (inconsistent as this may seem). This is probably a bad idea, since green slimes are statistically poor monsters and haphazardly turning other monsters into slime is a good way to put yourself in a very dangerous situation when your polymorph wears off.
