These fungal humanoids often live in tight-knit, isolated communities found scattered throughout subterranean and forested habitats. Mycosians are often suspicious of strangers but will usually not act in an overtly hostile fashion unless provoked. Every Mycosian has limited psionic abilities, and they communicate with one another and with other creatures through the use of their spores. Mycosians are deeply empathetic creatures, so they make stalwart companions once their trust has been earned.
Mycosian Regent
A Mycosian Regent is a group of several very elderly Mycosians who decided, rather than passing on, to conjoin with one another as a massive single entity. Regents are literally the wisdom of many Mycosian elders manifest in a single form, and so they are highly revered in Mycosian culture.
