........It's defined twice.

mob
    icon = 'person.dmi'
    var
        level = 1
        health = 30 // ONCE
        maxhealth = 30
        strength = 3
        exp = 0
        max_exp = 100
    Login()
        world << "[usr] has joined the quest to destroy the darkness!!" icon_state = gender
        loc = locate(1,1,1)
        ..()


mob
    slime
    icon = 'slime.dmi'
    var
        health = 100 //TWICE


You really can't do that. When you define in under the pearent-type then there is no need to define it under another type path under the same pearent-type and also you actually are unable to do that. So just get rid of the health variable under the slime.

Granado Espada first of all you didn't help him much, 2nd don't use game name as you nickname ..

mob
    var //define everything here
        level = 1
        health = 30
        maxhealth = 30
        strength = 3
        exp = 0
        max_exp = 100

mob
    icon = 'person.dmi'
    Login()
        //you dont need to set it here because it's already defined and has default value
        world << "[usr] has joined the quest to destroy the darkness!!" icon_state = gender
        loc = locate(1,1,1)
        ..()


mob
    slime
        icon = 'slime.dmi'
        health = 100 //don't use var here (it's used to define new variable), 
//only set slimes health to other number so it wont be default

maxhealth = 30

max_exp = 100

mob
slime
icon = 'slime.dmi'
var

You have that backwards.

It should be defined under mob since it gets defined for all types under it also. (which would include mob/slime)
