Primal Slime

Primal Slime

Mark Sambull worked for an oil company Formu-Oil as a chemical engineer. He was asked to investigate this weird substance they pulled from an oil well. Once removed from the oil, the slime seemed alive. One day the slime escaped the containment device and covered Mark. The other scientists tried to removed the slime but Mark split off slime creatures to restrain them. He calmly explained that it was alright. When they wouldn't listen he left with the slime.

He tried to join the Paragons but was sued by Formu-Oil. The company claimed the slime was company property and stolen by Mark. The slime was briefly contained and declined in health. The courts eventually sided with Mark that the slime wanted to stay with him and that the company couldn't provide an environment to allow it to thrive.

Mark never saw the point in secret identities and because of the lawsuit everyone knew he was Primal Slime. His wife was creeped out by the slime but initially stayed with him. She filled for divorce after being attacked by a supervillain hoping to use her as a bargaining chip.

He usually dresses in a business suit and caries a briefcase with the slime when not using the power. The slime does not communicate fully with Mark but he has received flashes of insight from his connection.
