Myconids, also known as fungus ones, are a race of ambulatory fungus creatures. They were known for their peacefulness and appreciation of quiet, making their homes in the darker corners of the world. Myconids resemble giant fungi, with their main distinguishing feature being their limbs. Their upper half splits into a pair of arms below their caps and their lower half divided into a pair of legs at the stump. Each extremity is pudgy and broad, with their hands ending in two stubby fingers and a thumb, and their feet hosting numerous vestigial toes. This number was not absolute however, with some fungus folk hosting more than the usual number of limbs and/or digits. The bloated flesh of most myconids ranges in coloration from purple to gray. Two eyes rested on their caps, perfectly concealed against the rest of their spongy skin when shut. Fungus folk were unique amongst the Underdark races for their complete aversion to violent behavior. A general distrust of outsiders is common among the myconids due to their experience with most other entities. Despite their suspicions however, myconids are a thoughtful race willing to give shelter or allow passage through their colonies to those who approached with peaceful intentions. The life of a myconid is strictly scheduled and split evenly between sleep, work and 'melding'. Melding is the core of myconid society, with separation from the process viewed as a frightening and pitiful fate. Direct sunlight is the most dangerous thing to any myconid, with direct exposure severely impairing them, and even killing them after an hour. As such, the fungus folk were loathed to venture anywhere above ground. Instinct: Defend colony
