Homebrew Shroomish Species Details
Long ago, a group of drow scholars experimented with myconids in order to find a cure for Sun Sickness. After many years, they succeeded, but the myconids were altered to such an extent that they were something completely different. They grew mouths and spoke. They turned round and, to be quite honest, adorable. They had become the first Shroomish. Shroomish now live primarily in above-ground forests, though some find a living as entertainers
