Mushrooms

Moonlit Caps   These mushrooms glow with a soft, silvery light in the dark. They are often used as a natural source of illumination in underground regions. Consuming one can provide temporary night vision.   Whispering Spores   When disturbed, these mushrooms release a cloud of spores that carry faint, whispering voices. The voices are remnants of past conversations held near the mushrooms, trapped in the spores.   Stonefoot Fungi   These mushrooms have a tough, rock-like stem. They are incredibly hardy and can even grow on stone surfaces. When ground into a powder, they can act as a minor binding agent or adhesive.   Eclipse Umbrellas   Dark with a shimmering underside, these mushrooms bloom only during lunar events. They have the unique property of reflecting starlight and are used in some astral rituals.   Breezebelly Toadstools   These mushrooms have a lightweight, balloon-like cap filled with gas. When plucked, they float upward. They are sometimes used as decorative, floating ornaments during festivals.   Crimson Drippers   These mushrooms exude a red, viscous liquid when touched. This liquid has mild healing properties when applied to wounds.   Thunderhead Puffs   These tall, cloud-like mushrooms release a loud, thunderous noise when their caps burst, scattering spores. The noise can be heard from quite a distance.   Luminous Lace   Resembling delicate lacework, this fungal growth emits a rainbow of colors. It's said that wearing a garment made from this mushroom can enhance one's charisma, but the mushroom is too fragile and decomposes rapidly once plucked.   Azure Spirals   These mushrooms grow in a tight spiral pattern and have a calming, azure hue. A tea made from them induces relaxation and peaceful dreams.   Golden Goblets   These mushrooms have caps shaped like goblets and are filled with a sweet nectar. Drinking the nectar is said to grant a brief burst of inspiration and clarity.   Embercap Fungi   The Embercap has a vibrant, fiery orange cap with specks that glow intermittently, resembling embers in a dying fire. Its stem is charred black, as if scorched by flames. Aqua Fungarum   The Aqua Fungarum features a translucent blue cap that undulates rhythmically, akin to gentle ocean waves. Luminescent veins pulse softly beneath its surface.   Echo Cap Mushroom   This silvery-blue fungus grows in clusters throughout the caverns. When disturbed, it emits a sound mimicking the last few noises it absorbed, creating an echo effect. Local adventurers use these sounds to map the caverns' depths without relying on visual cues. The Echo Cap is also a favored ingredient in potions for enhancing auditory senses.   Ironshade Truffle   Buried beneath the iron-rich soil of the caverns, these truffles are sought after for their ability to imbue metals with temporary resistance to rust and corrosion when smelted alongside them. Blacksmiths from surrounding villages seek Ironshade Truffles to craft tools and weapons of exceptional durability.
  Gloomcaps   A type of fungus that thrives in places saturated with death energy. They emit a faint, phosphorescent glow, casting an eerie light. Some legends claim that Gloomcaps can absorb the whispers of the dead and that their caps pulse with fragmented memories and echoes of past sorrows.
