Editing Fungus (section)

===Out of the Abyss===
The 5e module Out of the Abyss has an entire section detailing the types of fungus that grow in the Underdark, largely because it relies on the survival mechanic to create artificial difficulty til the party reaches a city from the drow prison camp.
It introduces some nutritional ones:
*''Barrelstalks'' are pretty much naturally-occurring, edible barrels of water. Super useful for the starving escapee.
*''Bluecaps'' are inedible on their own, but their spores can be used as flour to make something called sporebread or bluebread.
*''Fire Lichen'' is a hot fungus that grows near geothermal vents. It's basically fungal wasabi, and duergar use it to make spicy alcohol.
*''Ripplebark'' is an edible bracket fungus, really only unique in that it looks like rotten meat and tastes better cooked.
*''Trillimacs'' are five-foot-tall grey-green mushrooms that can be harvested for faux leather and kinda shitty bread.
*''Waterorbs'' are little... orbs of water. They hold about a gallon of drinkable water and can themselves be eaten, though they don't really taste like anything but water.
*''Zurkhwood'' is basically a fungal version of redwood trees, growing in the form of huge forests. Only its spores are edible, but the mushroom itself is noted as being the replacement for timber in the Underdark.
...and some fun ones:
*''Nightlights'' are fungal fluorescent tube lights. They're around 8 feet tall, lighting a large area around them as long as they're not uprooted. They even tap on and off like a tap-light when they're touched.
*''Nilhogg's nose'' is a mushroom that grants its consumer super-smell for a few hours. Jury's out as to whether it actually looks like a nose.
*''Ormu'' is more of a moss, significantly less luminescent than nightlights but useful for making glowing pigments.
*''Timmask'' is also called "the devil's mushroom," mostly because uprooting it makes it explode into a cloud of spores that inflicts the poisoned condition and the effects of the confusion spell.
*''Tongue of madness'' is a big fat tongue-shaped mushroom that forces its consumer to say every single thing that comes to mind.
*''Torchstalks'' would be useful for making torches, since they burn for 24 hours straight when they're lit, except for the fun little quirk that sometimes they explode as soon as you light them.
