Sporelinked Condition in Galfin | World Anvil

Sporelinked

Spore-Sickness: Those who have been linked to the Sporoom's prime mind suffer from a debilitating sickness, causing physical and mental fatigue, difficulty in concentrating, and hallucinations. The sickness worsens if they are separated from the Sporoom's influence for too long.
  Mushroom Mind: Those spore-linked individuals who have been exposed to the Sporoom's prime mind for an extended period may begin to lose their sense of self and have their thoughts dominated by the prime mind. They may become increasingly controlled by the Sporoom and its goals, and may act against their own best interests.
  Fungal Empathy: Some spore-linked individuals may develop an intense empathy with fungal creatures and plants, sometimes even adopting them as pets or companions. They may have an easier time communicating with such beings, and may be able to influence them to some extent.
  Spore Vision: Some spore-linked individuals may gain enhanced vision in the dark, allowing them to see in dimly lit areas as if it were daylight. However, they may also suffer from sensitivity to bright light, which can be painful or even blinding.
  Spore Poisoning: Exposure to the Sporoom's spores can cause a wide range of physical and mental symptoms, including nausea, vomiting, fever, and headaches. Prolonged exposure can lead to severe organ damage, mental deterioration, and even death.
