Puffballs
Puffballs are a light, mobile form that is easily propelled by winds and water, as well as an internal gas reserve, that the puffball uses to jet itself along when in need. They are uniformly grey in color and approximately 1 meter in diameter. Puffballs are the breeders of the species. A decaying puffball will seed a bloom. That is it's whole purpose, propogation. They are not easily destroyed (AC 14), and not easily caught if chased, jetting along without any wind, they can reach speeds of 10 feet per second (60 feet per round). It is otherwise defenseless, only being able to create three types of spores - Alarm, Communication and it's main spore type - Life. The Life spore does two things - it alerts the colony that a new bloom has been "born" and kills the puffball, mixing its chemistry with it's organic host, whatever that may be (as long as its dead) to give life to a new patch of Myconid. Puffballs appear with every bloom. Usually 4-6 are created, and these numbers are outside the normal number appearing for the other sub-species types (6-10 generally, as mentioned, below).
