oil is a liquid that has a variety of uses, and is the lifeblood of Robots. It is three times more valuable than fresh water. It is used as fuel for a variety of artifacts.

Upon stepping in a puddle of oil (less than 1,000 drams), a creature must make an Agility save of difficulty $10+({\text{drams of Oil}})\times 5$ to avoid slipping.

Disgusting!

Doing so does not influence hydration in any way.
