Mycelial Shambler | Mycena Mortifera

LORE & BACKGROUND

As the Mortifera fungus consumes living tissue, its hosts grow weaker, becoming more mulch than man. As their bodies lose coherence and strength, the thralls instinctively draw together, collapsing into great piles of corpses to concentrate the remaining nutrients for efficient processing by their mother organism.

When these clusters are threatened, they can rise again—not as individual thralls, but as massive amalgams of flesh and fungal matter. These Shambler constructs move with a ponderous yet inexorable pace, and woe betide anyone caught beneath their heavy, swinging blows.
