Dragon Quest Fan Makes Slime Out of Wool
The Slime is one of the most iconic enemies in the Japanese RPG space, and a dedicated Dragon Quest fan was able to create his own blue Slime out of wool. The blue Slime is regarded as a series mascot, but many other Slime variants exist within the Dragon Quest universe.
