Corrosive Form. A creature that touches the gray ooze or hits it or misses it by 4 or less with a melee attack while within 1 meter of it takes 4 (1d8) acid damage. Any nonmagical weapon made of metal or wood that hits the gray ooze corrodes. After dealing damage, the weapon is permanently corroded 1. Nonmagical ammunition made of metal or wood that hits the gray ooze is destroyed after dealing damage. The gray ooze can eat through 5-centimeter-thick, nonmagical wood or metal in 1 round.
False Appearance. While the gray ooze remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from an ordinary oily pool or wet rock.
