Basic Information

Anatomy

Meginus Lindi is a type of fungus. The mushroom is very small in comparison to others at only 0.4-0.9 inches in height on average. It has a ice-blue cap with white spots, as well as white gills underneath and a white stem.

Ecology and Habitats

Grows in the northern fringes of the world, such as the Svalian Wastes, Aksi Archipelago, and other places in similar latitudes.

Additional Information

Domestication

It is not domesticated by many, since the arctic regions it grows in are difficult to live in, and they are also considered poisonous. However, there are some warrior orders who cultivate them.

Uses, Products & Exploitation

Often used by warriors in order to augment their physical abilities. Once ingested, the consumer enters a trance-like state which reportedly renders them immune to fear and provides an adrenaline rush like no other. It is considered a last resort because the user will fly into a rage so powerful, they will be unable to tell friend from foe. In addition, there are several adverse side effects after the initial battle high has passed. Infrequently, it is used as a poison, but this is not very viable because a larger does is required compared to other popular poisons.
