Bean of Ooze, Slime, and Jelly (Magic Bean)

When these beans are thrown against a solid surface, they change into one of the amorphous lifeforms often found in dungeons. A green bean transforms into green slime, yellow into a gelatinous cube, white into crystal ooze, gray into gray ooze, and orange into an ochre jelly.
The beans are generally carried in metal containers. A character who falls with a bean in his or her pocket risks activating the bean (a Dexterity check is applicable), If a container holding a bean misses a saving throw vs. crushing blow or falling, the bean activates.
PCs who eat beans discover that these beans taste horrible. If a PC spits it out before swallowing, there is no ill effect If a PC swallows a bean, he or she must roll a saving throw vs. poison for each bean swallowed. A successful saving throw has the following effects:
An ingested ooze, slime, and jelly bean causes a character to suffer flu-like symptoms for 2d4 days as the bean activates, the resulting lifeform dies, and the body attempts to purge it. Symptoms include extreme nausea and vomiting, distended stomach, diarrhea, and body aches. Such a character could be transported in a wagon, but would not be strong enough to ride a horse. The character suffers a -4 penalty to all attack rolls and Strength and Constitution scores are reduced by 3 points for the duration of the illness. Effects are cumulative with each bean swallowed, and if any attribute drops to 0, the character dies. A cure disease spell administered any time during the illness removes all effects.
