Giant Mushrooms of Emycelium
Tower Faucet
Called home by the water-loving marinis, tower faucet mushrooms are endemic to the Spirit Isles. They stand almost twenty feet tall, continuously dripping water from pores in their caps. One wonders where this water comes from, as it is capable of fueling their homes and more.

Boiled Stinkshroom
These large epiphytic mushrooms grow on the sides of grand oak trees. They are classified as a pest, simply because the smell is so offputting serukians don’t want to live anywhere near them.

Ropeheld Fungi
Ropeheld fungi have their myecelial roots slithering around the gilded rainforest. These roots are covered in a thick sludgy substance, which makes it difficult for anything to get a grip. Many believe that this fungi species is carnivorous, and that the sludge traps smaller creatures, slowly broken down by powerful digestive enzymes.

Powderspore
Powderspores, as their name would suggest, produce spores in the form of a thick, stodgy powder. This powder can be eaten, and tastes lovely as a spice, used in fried mushroom recipes. Powderspores can be a nuisance in large quantities, as the spores make breathing difficult.
