False Appearance. While the basidirond remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from an ordinary fungus.
Poison Spores (3/Day). A 5-foot-diameter loud of toxic spores extends out from the basidirond. The spores spread around corners. Each creature in that area takes 7 (3d4) poison damage and must succeed on a DC 12 Constitution saving throw or it cannot breathe. (PHB p. 183). While suffocating, lesser restoration, prtection from poison, or the use of a paladin's Lay on Hands can end the effect. If the target is reduced to 0 hit points from suffocation, it can't regain hit points or be stabilized until it can breathe again.
Hallucinatory Spores (Recharge 6). If the basidirond is not moving or attacking, it can release a cloud of spores in a 30-foot radius. Any creatures in the area of effect must make a successful DC 12 Constitution saving throw or suffer wild hallucinations. While in the cloud,, the target suffers the effects of a confusion spell. The DM is encouraged to embellish these effects. For example, if the target doesn't move or take actions, it believes it is sinking in a swamp. If forced to make a melee attack, perhaps it is against a swarm of spiders at its feet. When a target leaves the cloud, the effect wears off in 1d4 rounds.
