As promised, It's time to share some homebrew! This time I will share my Myconid player race I made after half my group became obsessed with them.

@toolate Some good ideas in there, but a few problems as well.
- Firstly, normal myconids aren't blind, so it would be a bit weird to make the player version break that trend.
- Secondly, the complete inability to speak verbally is very harmful to non-spellcasting characters since they would be unable to access the telepathy that would be needed to communicate.
- Finally, although fey ancestry makes sense in some campaign settings, the Myconid people are usually portrayed (as far as I am aware) as being from the Underdark, not the Feywild
All that being said, most of this criticism really only applies to officially published materials, meaning that everything I just said goes out the window if you plan on using this in a custom or modified campaign setting.
