Flora : Mushrooms of Hautemort
Often called "mushroom country", Hautemort has a wide variety of eclectic fungi.
Orange Spindle
Bright and flavourful, this mushroom cannot be missed.
Peat Brownie
An icon of the swamps, it is edible but tastes just like where it grows.
Charred Pancake Cup
If harvested before it turns black, it can be consumed as long as it is cooked thoroughly.
Dangling Brittlegill
Grows on cave ceilings and the underside of large branches. The cave variety is toxic.
Rock Paluster
Despite its name, this mushroom is tender and delicious.
Dead Man's Fingers
Resembles rotting fingers rising from the ground. Areas where it is found are believed to be cursed.
Octopus Stinkhorn
Bright red and emitting a foul odour. Only insects enjoy this one.
Bog Bell
An unassuming yellow mushroom. Extremely dangerous as its spores cause the deadly brain mycosis disease.
Swamp Beacon
Glowing a faint blue. Unpalatable, but the spores are used in medicine.
Rooting Lichen
An unappealing cluster of grey strands. Can be steeped into tea and broth.
Black Velvet Bolete
Large, dark, and gorgeous, this mushroom is toxic but many people start cultures of them to embellish their gardens.
Thorny Twins
This mushroom always grows two heads for one stem. Simply touching it is enough to make someone sick.
Bleeding Bonnet
Oily and dripping red. Despite what it looks like, it is not toxic, but it tastes horrible.
Handsome Colony
Many different fungi that always grow together inside of rotting logs.
