Mycosian Starsage
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.
While most Mycosians prefer to remain as close to the ground as possible, some venture into the open to study the stars in the heavens above. These Mycosian Starsages are revered as mystics and prophets, and while they do not hold the same weight as a Mycosian Regent, they are nonetheless key leaders in Mycosian society.
