Marasmius

a character concept inspired by my discovery of the existence of myconids in dnd..., the mushroom man. incredibly new

brief list of things about mara: a circle of myconids found an abandoned and presumed dead drow baby and attempted to turn it into a full myconid. turns out, it was just nearly dead and the fungal transformation brought it back to life and made him healthier! the circle, after some debate, took him in and he was raised with a bunch of fungusfolk. something of a space cadet, usually humming whatever music is playing in his head (there's always music of some sort. it's usually odd and somewhat ethereal). he resides in the underdark but frequently visits the surface world to collect items and help people out; he's quite prone to the sun (he gets pretty sick for a while before he adjusts), so he makes sure to cover up before going anywhere! he's got spores that cause a variety of different things if inhaled, mainly telepathic communication. i imagine him as something of a back-alley doctor, the type that you meet in a shady building but the service he provides is quite good! very friendly, just kind of peculiar.
