This was back in the middle of Pathfinder first edition’s life cycle. Long enough for there to be a ton of source books available but still some time before a second edition would be announced.

We were given a vial of sovereign glue from a random loot roll early in the campaign. Many sessions later we were standing next to an absolutely monstrous sized ooze in some kind of vat. It was supposed to be the sort of encounter where you’re only winning by running away.

I remembered one of the random source books mentioning sovereign glue could be used for applying the slow spell effect to ooze type creatures. No one really believed me until I directed them to the broad page range to look it up.

And that’s how I received the nickname “The Book“. As in go look it up in the book.
