        Why? Can two mushrooms merge to become a bigger mushroom?

        Is there any roleplaying game which allows you to play beings closely related to fungi? Voralans are a lot more playable than Mi-Go or whatever those silly D&D ambulatory mushrooms are called.

        We may be up against the limits of sensible roleplaying here, trying to create beings that are both plausibly like humanoid fungi and good PC material may just be asking too much.

        Cheers
