==List of Known Fungi used by the Gitz==

*''Badloon Bossfungus'': An extremely rare mushroom known for its crescent moon shape that is revered as a sign of the Bad Moon’s favor. This particular fungus grows on the top of Skragrott’s staff.

*''Bitterspurts'': Pale blue shrooms found exclusively in Moonclan dung heaps. Used to brew “urgeblurt poison”, a toxin so revolting that it causes victims to vomit their guts up in agony.

*''Blue Gorkshroom and Green Morkshroom'': Tall stringy like fungus that regularly “war” over territory in the darkest depths of the Gloomspite tunnels. Both are harvested by shamans to be mashed together, creating an hallucinogenic paste.

*''Deffcap Mushroom'': A magical and addictive shroom eaten by Fungoid-Cave Shamans to increase their spell output. Grows only on the rotting flesh of mass graves of grots. Causes powerful brain-wracking hallucinations that are invariably prophetic in nature and often reveal the will of Gorkamorka 'imself, if you can survive the ten to twenty hour acid trip it involves. There’s a crimson variant of the Deffcap that’s harvested by Squigbosses that makes squiggly beasts quite hyperactive.

*''Dincap Mushroom'': A dark purple fungus that, when ingested, causes a person’s lungs to vibrate and turns their voice into a microphone. Though the effects are temporary, they do last for a while so be sure not to say anything secretive while under its effect.

*''Glowey Morkeye'': Small light blue mushrooms that emit an eerie bioluminescence which is used by Grots to navigate their pitch black tunnels.

*''Grey Spattlethwapper'': Glowing spheres attached to thin stalks. A highly volatile fungus which erupts into a cloud of madness-inducing spores upon even the slightest of contact.

*''Looncap Mushroom'': A rare fungi that only grows in the light of the Bad Moon. While it can grow virtually anywhere, it has a habit of sprouting out of the heads/backs of living creatures. They are harvested by Sneaky Snuffler teams who then use them on fellow Moonclan Grots (or Squigs who can’t resist chasing after these little treats) to “enhance” their fighting prowess. Also refined in a magic potion and force-fed to the unlucky sods chosen to become Fanatics of either the Loonsmasha or Sporesplatta variety.

*''Madcap Mushroom'': A magic-enhancing shroom used by Madcap Shamans. Not to be confused with the similarly named Madcap Toadstool, despite looking, smelling, and tasting identical to the impossibly toxic 'shroom.

*''Madcap Toadstool'': A deathly toxic fungus often confused with Madcap Mushrooms. It looks, smells, and tastes identical to the powerful Madcap Mushroom... at least until the poor idiot who ate it dies horribly from cramps so strong their organs implode.

*''Puffgut-Balls and Hopsplatter Fungus'': These fungi are fed to Squigs to make them incredibly springy, creating Squig Hoppers and Boingrot Bounders. As a side effect, it also makes them even more irritable than the stock Squig.

*''Redcap Mushroom'': Likely colored as their name implies, this fungus is primarily used by Loonbosses who ride upon Squigs. Ingesting then mushroom makes them much more aggressive in combat. A secondary use was discovered by Loonboss Brikkit of Brikkit’s Backstabbas; when fed to Troggoths, the redcap mushroom boosts their regeneration abilities.

*''Scaldyscratch Spores'': A fine powder like substance that Loonbosses often use to blind their enemies, creating a painful burning sensation that only worsens as they try to claw their eyes out.

*''Squig Eggs'': Small spherical growths found in clusters near Squig dens. Not actually connected to the squiggly beasts’ reproductive cycle.

*''Stinkcranny Fungi'': A foul smelling violet fungus harvested for usage in various poisons. Usually it’s avoided by Grots and Squigs alike because of its horrendous odor.

*''Stragglenekk Fungus'': These stalactite-like mushrooms grow around the entrances and ceilings of Moonclan lurklairs and display an almost predatory nature that causes them to slowly coil around and consume any one who runs into them.

*''Twackweezer Puffshroom'': A pale fungus that releases lung-clogging spores upon the slightest contact. Thwackweezers grow quickly and silently in inconvenient places, such as under grots pillows or just behind their bathroom door and spray a foul spore filled gas that drives grots into a tooth-gnashing frenzy and everything else into coughing fits. Of course, grots being the vindictive little shitheads they are, they use them as "hilarious" pranks. Then some enterprising (and very insane) grit decided to replace a Fanatic's metal ball with a Thwackweezer, and after a few messy test runs and about a dozen dead volunteers, the Sporesplatta fanatic was born, which swings the heavy and solid fungus in a chain to generate a cloud of obscuring spores and drive nearby grots into a battle frenzy.

*''Yellow Lurka and Sproutin’ Moon'': These two varieties of mushroom are collected by the mycophilic Squigbosses and fed to their Squig charges to amplify their combat capabilities.
