They have a wide variety of forms, as they resemble many different kind of fungus. Those who resemble mushrooms with caps always have the caps as the tops of their heads. They range in height from 2' to 8', though the larger ones are very rare.

Some form colonial minds and bodies together, forming a single multiperson organism.

In imperial lands, they are mostly 4' to 5' in height and usually capped mushroom folk with light violet flesh.

Every myconian has a wide variety of powers, depending on the kind of fungus they resemble. Some powers include but are not limited to
  • Control of fungi: mentally control non-sentient fungi with a touch.
  • Hallucinatory spores: release spores that cause intense, uncontrolled hallucinations.
  • Poisonous spores: release spores that cause major physical poison damage.
  • Nourishing spores: release spores that have enough nutrients to replace three meals.
  • Mind control: release spores that puts the target under the control of the myconian.
  • Mycellium connection: connect to any other myconian nearby, fully sharing emotions and thoughts.
  • Instant cloning: create an instant clone of oneself that is fully grown, but with no knowledge.
  • Lifedraining: drain the lifeforce from a target with their acidic spray.
  • Magic absorption: absorb elemental energies directed at them.
Myconians live in great colonies in secluded spaces all over the world. Though there are many different nations, most share some common features, such as their devotion to protecting nature. They worship a deity that gave them the task of preserving the world, and they take it very seriously, even those who are not religious. Their colonial minds and sometimes bodies are seen as spiritual leaders.

In imperial lands, they are mostly individualized and oppressed, enslaved, and/or impoverished. They live in secluded parts of the area, trying to avoid violence, for they are often attacked by those who fear them. They work low paying jobs such as street cleaning and so on.
