Fungal Shepherd | Mycena Mortifera

LORE & BACKGROUND

The Fungal Shepherd is a terrifying sight. Unlike the mindless, instinct-driven thralls, these unfortunate beings retain a twisted semblance of their former minds, fused into a discordant mockery of the perfect symbiosis embodied by the Mycena Mortifera.

A leader-organism, the Fungal Shepherd has the ability to travel far beyond the fungus’s established network, guiding its thralls to form new enclaves of infection. The many voices of its merged minds babble through a single mouth, weaving spores in ways akin to spellcraft, making the Shepherd a deadly foe for any unprepared party.
