Slime in SMT V is a primitive monster with a mucus-like body. Its true identity is likely a demon that failed to materialize. The narrator elaborates that there are many theories about the origins of Slime as a monster, but none of them are conclusive. Generally speaking, these theories all agree that Slimes have a habit of collecting shiny objects. The trailer shows it using Poisma on a precious, little mandrake. We also get a glimpse at the muckman’s skills, which lists a new ability called Dustma (the final localization may change the name). Based on footage from the E3 Treehouse, this attack appears to enchant a single enemy.
