Myconid Grove

The Myconid Grove is a large fungal forest located within the north-western depths of the Deepdark, beneath the lands of Elderan.

The Myconid Grove is home to numerous species of fungi, most notable being the giant otherworldly mushrooms that tower as tall as trees, stretching over vast acres of land, forming a forest of multicoloured and bioluminescent fungi. The forest is also the home of numerous species of otherworldly creatures, many of whom are of fungal origin, or have a symbiotic relationship with fungi, such as the namesake of the Grove, the colony of Myconid, a species of sapient fungi that live within the Deepdark.

The Myconid Grove somewhat resembles the giant fungal forests of the Faedark, as well as the Fungal Wilds of the Abyss. It speculated that both the Myconid Grove and the fungal forests of the Faedark are extensions of the Fungal Wilds, attempts by the Archdemon, the Queen of Rot, to expand it's influence throughout the Planes, though the Fungal Wilds are far larger and expansive in size, as well as being exceedingly more deadly than the Myconid Grove. It is unknown if the Queen of Rot exerts any influence over the Myconid Grove, or it's native Myconid population, but caution is advised when traversing the forest, both due to the toxic airborne clouds of spores, as well as the risk of carrying the fungal spores out of the Deepdark.
