Zuggtmoy (/ˈzʌgtmɔɪ/ ZUG-tmoy)

Zuggtmoy was the Demon Queen of Fungi, but not considered a true patron of fungi. She was merely the embodiment of the death and virulence that fungi represented, and fully willing to subvert the natural order for her own ends. The Lady of Rot and Decay did not use decomposition for the higher purposes of renewal or rebirth, desiring destruction purely for its own sake.

Fear not for your future for now you must sleep In Zuggtmoy's Cradle your body shall steep. Your flesh a fine banquet of delicate food Your gift to the Lady shall nourish the brood. What births from your leavings and grows in her nave Shall feed from your ruins and fat from your grave.

— A traditional lullaby sung to those in Zuggtmoy's Cradle
