Homebrew Vegepygmy Species Details
Exhausted from battle, we covered our dead with large leaves and fronds from the jungle around us, made camp a shot distance away, and fell asleep. When we returned the next day to bury them they had a strange mold covering them, as we approached, beings arose out of our companion's corpses.

Vegepygmies are fungus creatures that live in simple tribal units, hunting for sustenance and spreading the spores from which they reproduce.
You are able to be a PC vegepygmy. See description in Volo's Guide to Monsters for full description.
Note: You must make intelligence your lowest statistic, and charisma your second lowest.
Vegepygmy Traits
Your vegepygmy character has the following racial traits.Regeneration
You have a pool of regeneration points equal to twice your level. At the start of your turn, if you are injured you may spend points equal to your constitution modifier to heal yourself.
If you takes cold, fire, or necrotic damage, this trait doesn’t function at the start of the your next turn. This trait functions even when you reach 0 hit points unless you were brought to 0 hit points by cold, fire, or necrotic damage.
You regain 1/4 of these regeneration points per short rest (round up), or all of them on a long rest.
Proficiency Limitation
You cannot learn to use crafting tools other than Woodworking Tools.
Eat by Osmosis
You prefer to eat fresh meat, bone, and blood, but you can absorb nutrients from soil and organic matter. As a result you only need to eat once per week, though you can eat more often if you choose to do so.
Ability Score Increase
Your Dexterity score increases by 2, and your Constitution score increases by 1.
Age
No one knows how long vegepygmy's live, though they only take six months to mature.
Alignment
Vegepygmies tend toward neutral alignments.
Size
Vegepygmies range between 3 and 4 feet tall and weigh about 30 pounds, less when dry, up to 50 when wet. Your size is Small.
Speed
Your base walking speed is 25 feet.
Darkvision
Due to your mold nature your entire body is able to take in more light than a standard cerature. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.
Claws
Because of your claws, you have a climbing speed of 20 feet. In addition, your claws are natural weapons, which you can use to make unarmed strikes. If you hit with them, you deal slashing damage equal to 1d4 + your Strength modifier, instead of the bludgeoning damage normal for an unarmed strike.
Plant Camouflage
You have advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks you make while in any terrain with ample obscuring plant life
Languages
You can speak Vegepygmy and understand, read, and write Common. You cannot speak Common as you lack vocal chords, though through much effort you have learned a number of words equal to your level +1. At level 1 you know two words, your name is one of them.
