In D&D, fungi are considered plants, which means a fairy circle is a valid target for Transport via Plants.

For anyone wondering: fungi are neither plants nor flesh, they are their own thing. Only learned this while learning the farmer job.

And in IRL taxonomy, they’re more closely related to animals than plants, but probably diverged long before sponges came about, let alone other animals.

Yet they’re closer to humans than any animal. What are we?

[–] Archpawn 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

They're equally close to all animals.

Yeaaah I was thinking of the ‘closer to humans than any plant bit and my exhausted brain did the thing.

My mistake archpawn thanks for the correction!

Yeah, there's a tree stride variant in Out of the Abyss if you agree to become infected by Zuggtmoy (fungus queen). Basically it's Mushroom Stride. :)

This is basically the plot to the original Super Mario Brothers movie

I'm pretty sure this is the plot of the first season of Star Trek Discovery.

See, I was always taught the mushrooms were just growing afterwards, wherever a large amount of magic had been discharged (like when a portal happened). They were growing after the fact, soaking up any residual magic splash.

Hold on, Star Trek: Discovery is about Fey?
