The dubious Green-glob-of-goo spell that has rendered formidable wizards and warriors alike helpless, sticking tightly to the wall, unable to move or breath.

I have seen this spell being used in several novels, lastly by Jarlaxle in Road of the Partriach. However, I have never seen any equivalent in game rules. Have I just missed the spell discribtion or is Bob Salvatore employing means that were never introduced to the game???

Perhaps based on Rod of Viscid Globs (MoF p149). (DU84 p53)
color is not specified.

Well could be something from the Expanded Psionics Handbook - there is a power which produces the goo.

Don't know if there are any psionics in the book, but might be a slim chance if there is no item mentioned either

Perhaps you seek the spell Viscid Glob in the Spell Compendium?

That would be it I guess. Sounds very much like it, at least. And as the required spell component is 'a tiny ball of spider silk' it very much fits to drow magic.


EDIT NOTE for the mods: if you like you can remove/lock this topic now as my question has been answered sufficiantly (that is, if you do and care to do such things at all, of course........ )

We can lock it if you want, but we generally just leave threads like this alone. At some point in the future, someone may want to revisit this topic, and it's easier if it's unlocked.
