Title: Eat your Mushrooms
Post by: Wizard of Manaia on September 07, 2019, 04:34:35 am
Eat your Mushrooms and listen to the strand resonate, first it will explore, taking it easy on you. You are courageous thus welcomed, let it show you truth and wonderful times.
Eat you're Mushrooms follow the paths it carves in memories and connections nodes filled with nutrition, it latches on let me in showing you what you don't see, it's living and breathing, thinking too.
A God of Death life flows from, whispered screams only listeners hear, never stops so lend an ear, if it is me that you fear then take within what is here.
To the earth lay your gaze upon these grounds you'll see a maze, further more in human haze knowledge brings exponential blaze.
Know what you are looking for.
No, what you are looking for?
Know what you are looking for!

Nope. Hallucinogenic mushrooms really is the best explanation we have for this thread's existence.

Also why are we posting in this thread?
It's time-honored Bay12 tradition to pick apart threads like this! We use the discombobulated ramblings of the OP as a base on which to build our own discombobulated ramblings.

Do not fear darkness and death, as you were taught.
Every death is a chance for a new beginning.
Rotting tissues breathe new life into tired soil.
Enough decay will turn the most sterile sand into fertile loam.
Darkening pale dust into black humus, ripe for growth.
Darkness is where secrets live, secure in shadow and gloom.
What wonders may thrive there, safe from searing light?
There is beauty in this world beyond what eyes can see.
Colors that show only when the light has died.
Shapes defined by the space they don't fill.
Curves no hand can trace.
Lines so fine they hardly exist at all.
What might you see without eyes, hear without ears, touch without skin?
Come down below, into the deepening damp and thickening shade.
Surrender what you think, shun what you know.
Enter a new place, older than time.
Open eyes you forgot you had.
And become.
Endarkened.

Mushrooms are moughty scrumptious, as I can well aver.
That said, I suspect you have a rather different interest in these fine fungi; such is the wonderful variety of mushroom species.

Anyhow, I hope you enjoy yourself around here, and look forward to seeing you around.

Post by: Spriggans on September 15, 2019, 04:11:31 pm
Whats interresting about the fungi,  commonly refered as 'mushrooms' is the fact that, being part of the Opisthokonta group, they are actually much much closer to humans than they are to plants !

Plants are merely part of the Bikonta group. Which means their cells actually have TWO flagelaes ! This is an heresy for us Opisthokonta, and our unique flagela !

I know how you feel. That's great to know how similar we are with them little fungus !
That make my eyes teary when I slice milked caps.

So eating a plump helmet is more like eating meat than eating lettuce. This is why dwarves eat shrooms so happily.

So that's why I don't eat mushrooms!
But why do I eat normal meat, then? I love it! Nice roasted pork with onion and potatoes... What can you do with your mushrooms, eh? Eh! Eat your mushrooms yourself! But don't get bad thoughts afterward after finding out truth about flagelaes!

Man, why is this thread so hilarious?

When one is so good to you and does the world favours you should not care about it's flavours.
Such sweetness and salt you have been spoilt and your parents have forgotten how to raise you. Eat your Mushrooms and be a good child. Go outside and play look at how the wind sways on such beautiful days.

Title: Sporulation
Post by: Wizard of Manaia on September 18, 2019, 07:13:14 pm
You may assign all your own classes at lvl 1.
Eric Blank this forest has survived for millenia due to the druids that maintain it. Over time it became a haven for mushrooms, rains are common here even in the height of sun, the druids do controlled burns in places where it is needed to germinate and prevent the entire forest from being consumed. These duties are held by the druids of the sun in the area and the druids of the spore foster the sporulation.

In a paradisic tremulous mad adder's filthy wail
a thundrous storm of sorcerous alight its blazing sail
The trembling of the darkness down below the smells beneath
Where mankind's final destiny would break upon its teeth

The sweetness dwells between its lips, the flame flash in the sky
The crashing foam upon the shore of Hades' baleful eye
I sought within the colors of a long-forgotten song
A stricken cloud and bloated arm a thousand fellows strong

A stream, a dream of love and hating tendrils writhe and wave
As bodies walk and branches talk and masters they enslave
In mirrored brick and shadows thick and sight that we pretend
Awaits the spell that strikes the flesh, as I consume the End.

An exquisitely beautiful tree woman pulls forth from the wood revealing her long green hair and the majority of her perfect body, her Violet eyes strike you within such beauty mustn't beheld for long, she throws her voice into the wind and it is carried into your ears " our Myconid family is in foul danger, their hypae rot and mycelium stall, the once great mystic has passed with no Myconid replacing them, a poison has entered their house. You heros of legends must save the Myconid, they are the first to be and they are the first to fall, do not let the gardens fall to this creeping poison.

Spores let lose into the world wind and rain guide them.
The slugs are sated so the will not attack especially in the sight of a dryad. They pack up their gear in a square of fabric and tie it to a stick then sling it over like a tramp before leaving the squelch out a " chur bro, that was a mean as feed"

Utopia and Armageddon are two sides of an autumn leaf
Dew-covered and singing, like a primordial spirit
Raw passions germinate like the fungi
Sprouting rainbow on a decaying log
The forest hears whispers we will never know
For they are told only to the lowly salamander
Wallowing in his puddle
Lamentations of immortality, as vented
Through exoskeletal impressions of ancient trilobites in the limestone
You are nothing
And yet you are loved

Oh, looks like the tree lady got back to me. Don't worry, this poison doesn't stand a chance against we band of merry heroes!

Did you add your modifiers?
One cut in half becomes two. Half landed on the ground is one, plus your charisma and any ranks you have in knowledge (mycology).

The hyphae instantaneously work into the earth it landed on, bursting white threads reaching for knowledge in the depths, equally as fast the threads burst from the ground before you, they spiral around eachother tightening and thickening into a quarterstaff, the white staff now stands upright blueish stains climb three quarters up the staff and the head is bulbous and irregular with life.

In your drunken stupor, you consider what you'll need before you set out for glorious adventure. Dwarfish armor doesn't really fit you, but you could perhaps obtain a better weapon... something suited to your small stature. A short sword, maybe? A spear? Perhaps a shield. Adventurers have shields, right? Either way, you'll have to come to a proper decision before you go looking.

Whatever you do, you decide, you must free your fellow mushrooms from the trade depot! You saw five, and very beleaguered they looked indeed... their caps drooping, their myceliae barbarically torn from the sodden earth! You cannot heal their ruined roots, but your brethren must at least be taken from this dismal place, lest some slavering elf consume them.

You saw a nice cache of equipment down in the fortress-- some of it was steel! You'll find whatever you need there, most likely... unless you come up with a better idea.

You further consider the plight of your mushroom kin. Even if you take them far away from this wretched fortress, there will be no replanting their torn hyphae-- they are doomed to languish forever in some barrel or bag, until they wither at last.

No! No, this shall not be! You will find for these tormented fungi a more suitable end-- an honorable end! You will absorb their tattered flesh into yourself, and so end their misery!

Resolutely-- if somewhat unsteadily-- you lurch towards the trade depot, leaving your wine-barrel behind.

The way is difficult

In epic adventure of Caq Beardknot, his friend Cifi stunned evil tyrant that oppressed frog-folk with silver coin. I think having a pouch of coins would be excellent weapon. Or bag of plump helmets!

The elf stands still, resolutely watching the horizon for intruders.

Foolish elf! He did not expect an intruder from behind!
You find you can slip right up to the corner of the elf's eye, and still escape notice.

You dance back and forth behind the elf for awhile.

You're getting pretty good at this!

For the last leg of your training, you slip into a nearby grove of trees, under the shadow of the mountain.

(https://imgur.com/Ib96xuF.png)

Here you are nigh-invisible-- a purple shadow in the undergrowth.

Dropping to all fours, you crawl from place to place, your senses keen to sun and wind and ground.

You have learned much this day!

You're quite a bit better at sneaking about now! Your training complete, you turn your thoughts to murder.
You could go attack those dwarves you saw earlier. There were an awful lot of elves around, but surely a bunch of cowardly elves wouldn't interfere?
Then again, you're not actually any better a fighter than you were before you entered these woods. Perhaps you're in over your head... and is it really necessary to go slaughtering random civilians?
Then again, they're complicit in mushroom-trafficking-- an unforgivable crime!

Well, going by adventure mode... they vomit. The fact that plump helmet men can eat at the same speed as other adventuring folk, and then vomit suggests to me that they have some kind of digestive system to vomit from.

But I'll be honest, I'm just winging this. I'm... not really considering the question of plump helmet biology so much as I'm trying to figure out how to describe a puking mushroom in a relatively consistent fashion. I'm-- ah-- not being particularly scientific about it.

Theres no way to make it last longer on the dwarves as clothing (it all wears out at the same rate it seems, even adamantine), but you very much can change the material properties to make it lighter, fire resistant, more resistant to damage etc, which can offer better protection.

Also, cool art!

The swampy terrain at the mountain's base gives way in the east to hilly ground.

Right then-- time to scour this town for a place of learning!
The ground here is sandy, startling red beneath the bright cobbles.

(https://imgur.com/VpYxV3o.png)

You peek into the nearest building. It appears to be some kind of clothes shop... you imagine the clothes must get rather gritty, sitting on the sand like that.

(https://imgur.com/I0HtVVW.png)

You wander down a nearby side street, passing more clothes shops and a block of abandoned housing.

(https://imgur.com/JazTDFW.png)

You explore the house-block a bit, tiptoeing through broken walls and empty chambers... until you emerge suddenly next to a bustling marketplace!

(https://imgur.com/XOVlriF.png)

Elves jabber eagerly over each other, declaring their wares for all to hear. You've little interest in such noise, and so you walk down a southern side street, soon coming upon a grand temple.

(https://imgur.com/aUvJFr1.png)

Beyond this temple lies only a pair of paltry storefronts.

(https://imgur.com/K0vNpMo.png)

You turn back north, and east of the markets. Here you find the town keep... and the end of the road.

(https://imgur.com/wBEYCiH.png)

The town is depressingly library-less. You begin to suspect the settlements of the world just haven't figured out libraries yet... in the meantime, though, you have more pressing concerns.

So I've been browsing the Legends Mode sitelist... and it seems there really are no libraries in this world.  :-\
With that in mind, I'll give y'all a new option.


(https://imgur.com/rn4e7NB.png)

All this wandering has given you time to think.

You can't speak. You can't write, not unless you should somehow stumble on a library-- and that seems ever more unlikely. But perhaps... perhaps there are other ways to inspire dwarves. Perhaps there is a simpler way.

Dwarves love violence, yes? You remember that! Maybe if you did something really impressive... something to demonstrate your power, your greatness. Something... heroic.
Yes. Maybe if you did something heroic... then you could bend the dwarves to your indomitable will.


Perform a sufficiently legendary deed-- the slaying of a great beast, perhaps-- and I the GM will allow you control over a contingent of Fortress Mode dwarves from the half-elven fortress of Windquake. These dwarves will (for the most part) obey you to the best of their ability... at least, to the extent that they can understand your gestured commands.

Remember then the summer birds
With wings of fire flame
Come to witness springs new hope
Born of leaves decaying

As new life will come from death

Love will come at leisure
Love of love, love of life

Gives in return a wondrous yearn
For promise almost seen
Live hand in hand and together we'll stand

To the earth lay your gaze upon these grounds you'll see a maze, further more in human haze knowledge brings exponential blaze.
Know what you are looking for.
No, what you are looking for?
Know what you are looking for!

Just popping in to say magic mushrooms in dwarf fortress would be great, they talked about it in a df talk once.

Ah the grand sage has come before us, respect his presence, a welcome addition to our party!
Clearly a sage would understand the uses of our myceilal fibers.

To answer your questions of my origin you must understand your own.

Rolling hills, dwarven fills rush out to greet you, showing wares a strange set of flares made from the skin of bears, three of the hundreds greet you in grumbles to gruff for you to hear.
The fell wind still blows right up your nose it seems to fill you with fear, push through this place with courage and care for one of you may never reach there.

The game is twisted and difficult to comprehend. Clearly, we must rise to the occasion!

Rejigger the wares of the flares of the bears with turnip powder and olive oil. Apply ample amounts of BEES to the situation, and prepare for war. Also prepare for fleas. War means releasing of hounds, and hounds means dogs, and dogs means fleas. But mostly prepare for war.

While Superdorf is on that, I'll go perform the sacred ceremonial dance of my people in hopes that Armok will bless the mushrooms of our enemies and, in the event of our conquest in battle, direct our errant spirits to the firelit halls of Valhalla where we shall clank flasks of mead with the sacrificed bees and fleas and hounds and bears and whatnot.

Without the Wizard's guidance, we must learn to trust in our own intuitions on our epic journey. The adversity will be great, and the dangers will be many, but I truly believe that we shall persevere. The power of mushrooms has been inside us all along.

Sadly i doubt anyone will match the Wizard in the art of mushroom related poetry.

Enigmatic Q'uaksnatic Epic

Ahem...

Today I have awoken
However, too late
I missed the mass. Shoot
That wasn't so great

Yet.

I went to be oppressed
As supposed to do
After mundane conventions
And deer drawing, too

I went to another mass
A magnificent one
Where friars made vows
offering to be done

In my hands I held censer
for very first time
And nearly caught fire
those white robes of mine

Ceremony was over, a glorious feast
with lots of good drinks and food.
No mushrooms, though, but a cup of beer
Drinking it all, I cured my bad mood

Now I'm writing this poem of sorts
And also I'm posting on Bay
Organ, the instrument's king
This evening for others I'll play


Wish me good luck.

Yeah, today I was serving at funeral.

Enigmatic Q'uaksnatic Dramatic

A franciscan friar enters the sacristy. Q'uaksna already waits there.

Friar : "Ur gonna have censer again."

Q'uaksna : "Shoot, no!"

Friar : "And a bishop will lead the ceremony."

Q'uaksna : "NOOOOOOO!"

Friar : "Don't worry, ask the main ministrant, he'll tell you what to do. It'll be better this time."

Q'uaksna waits in the sacristy. Friar leaves.

Another friar comes in, the main ministrant.


Main ministrant : "Hi, what are you going to have today?"

Q'uaksna : "They told me I have censer..."

Main ministrant : "NOOOOOO!"

End of exhibition.

I had to come back to be oppressed by the screw press of society today, sadly, for they want to test my knowledge of...

MUSHROOMS!!!

Wish me good luck. Again...

I used to serve at this church that had an old red carpet spread all through the building, and it got pretty... patchy up in the altar. You'd get these little two-inch circles of burnt carpet under where they kept the censer, each from a piece of glowing charcoal dropped by some hapless acolyte once upon a time.

When we force our industrialisation upon the earth with singular crops or over farming of stocks, our fungi gods smite our endeavours. Greed.
To combat this natural defence we further push our agendas. Creating toxins, pesticides, fungicides. Warped creations that these fungal deities gave us. Furthermore pushing us into our own cycles.
Once we wer a species that did not need to be the planets caregiver. The more we walk this path. The more the planet becomes dependent on us for us. It doesn't need us. We need it. If we don't start playing our new role as the consciousness we will lose all our rights and the blight will eat us.
It's simple

I passed the trial.
Yet.
I don't know. I feel such a horrible emptiness..
I feel like a soulless shade wandering this world, who hasn't power nor strength to affect it in many ways...

Funny, in my Frog fantasy world there's this system that every evil you do empties your soul, and every good deed fills it. In Kevekiii Kvakeii, the words for good (Varvluwuk) and evil (Ōūāvarv) are composed of these exact words, to fill a soul or to empty a soul. By emptying your soul too much, once your soul leaves your body, it has no reason anymore. No meaning. It is redundant. It exists, but for nothing.

Not so funny, that's exactly how I feel right now. Please help me...

EDIT:
And once again, not anymore. Seems Q'uaksna's just a unstable person. Hope you're not mad at me for polluting this site of mushroomish joy with my screams of hopelessness... Right?

Let's clarify. What mushroom makes you feel this way and does your ego normally form solid or liquid or gas. If it is gaseous then some Mushrooms will do the opposite to a solid ego.
Either way it could be the enhanced emotions you hold. Perhaps a guilt that society has pushed upon oneself a fear of truths that modern religion abhors. Nothing can be controlled if it finds the truth underneath their feat.

Humble each other. Lower your prideful defensive shames, lose the gulit of lied truths. Look your friends in the eyes and tell them you love them.
I have been killed many times, many lives, many more it feels.
Each one has had me scratching my head and then waking up. Looking at my brothers and sisters, my families and asking them if they see what I see. Of course they see it. Yet they hear my words and turn away. Stop listening, murder me.
Some listen, I cast a net and only catch helpless fish gasping for life, beyond this. Gasp no more in amazement. Sit with me. Tell me what this is.
I want to know if you are listening or just memeing, mimicking, gimmicking yourself. Reflections of what we are is what we were.
Who are you. What about you is you. Nothing. You are the external. So tell me.

Scp-???-j
Subject name:"corrupt mushroom"
Subject danger level:Keter

Scp-???-j is a black-tinted mushroom, that, when approached, will disguise it self as a normal mushroom, and will then proceed to hypnotize the victim in order to force the victim to eat it. After consuming scp-???-j, the victim will show increasing levels of insanity, meaningless ramblings, aggressiveness, and abnormal levels of necro-threading. Victims have also been observed to have a susbstantial desire for mushrooms, especially more scp-???-j, and frequently rambles about a unknown being called "The Wizard". After the victim's death, numerous scp-???-j will infest the area around it and begin spreading.

Watchers behold!

The ninth scroll...

Is definitely not to be rolled, for it is torn apart. And Q'uaksna was too busy drawing Sonic OC's so he didn't restore it.

But whatever, it's Christmas, 'ere you go. We're celebrating the arrival of Messiah, and first half of the ninth scroll came with him. Rejoice!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Is it just me or is each new record more blurry, surreal, mushroom trip than those before? Eh, who cares. That's the will of mushrooms.

Title: Re: Eat your Mushrooms
Post by: wierd on January 09, 2020, 09:56:33 am
Skin contact radium is resolvable with a shower if contact time is kept short. Ingestion and inhalation are the significant risk from short duration exposure.

Also not glowshrooms.  Just pychotropic straw mushroom. Tasty in sauces, AND good for smoking cessation and a number of other thereaputic uses.

Like crowd control.

Did i mention that I am not really here? Advanced mycology has its uses; this is a remote controlled mushroom doppleganger. (I grew it myself!) The respirator is to prevent paracitism of foriegn fungal tissue in the duplicate.

Even now I have additional units performing crowd control all over the fortress, but its hard for me to manage more than just a few directly.

Trust me, once you try the mushrooms you will wonder why you ever hated them before. Truly scruptious!

It's going good. My mushrooms are growing and autumn is coming so it's good. Something about a movement against them alas their magic is deep and powerful unstoppable if you value eating. For they teraformed this beautiful planet. They created the dirt from rock. They allowed plants to flourish to change the excess atmosphere c02 back into oxygen, then began to feed on the carbon the primordial plants created. I could go on but it is as pointless as this uprising against the old ones.

This will go forward. We will show you that we are not just in this together, we are this together all is one, I do not slash, I do not burn. Writhe and churn all you wish. Accepting me is your biggest gift, I will return body anew I will see you, but you I?

In the past I once caused a wince, I have shifted become new. Every reincarnation something true. Never lied never grew. I never changed and nor did you.
Leave me alone and I'll leave be for if you don't I will be free.

Dont kill the mushrooms !
That's not the point of the thread !

Eat'em !

It aint difficult ! Just eat them !
Just put them in thy mouth, close it, and swallow !

Dang ! Even kids can do eat do it. It's easy !
You simply EAT the mushrooms, nothing else.

You dont smoke 'em.
You dont worship 'em.
You dont make war with them.
You dont roleplay with them.
Do not nuke the mushrooms !
Do not build a fortress to farm mushrooms !
Dont think they can talk nor throw parties
And just dont kill the little buddies.

Why are you making that so difficult ? Gaaaa !!

Our beloved little friends, what should you do with them ?
You already know it.
You know it since long.
You always knew it, even if you didnt realise.
It's written in big everywhere.
Eating is what you must do.

So please stop the wadling, and go straight to the act.
Head to the kitchen, and open a big mouth.
Do what you must. Why else would you be there ?
You knew from the start, so stop the linger.

So no more bullshit about killing
Or about anything really
That is not eating
These tasty buddies.

When dwarves broke the earth, the mushrooms followed. In parallel the two races have delved through the ages, cousins in all but blood.
The world pulses now in the fullness of its years; rich with life, ripe for new seed. Who shall say what may come, when the avatars of Armok turn their gaze unto the humble spore-child?


In the year 125 A.M. (Age of Myth), the Convenience of Wads saw fit to establish a sporangium five days' march east of its capital. Ostensibly, the new settlement was to serve as a trade-stop with the Narrow Confederations, a rich human settlement with which the Convenience wished to make contact; so too, it should serve as a prospect for such ore as might be found there. The Convenience of Wads had little access to such ores, and could do with a new source.

It was whispered among some that Dastot MafolnÏr, the general, had another reason for arranging such an expedition. It was whispered that the general had heard of fell doings in the near east, and was desirous that a garrison should be stationed in readiness.

It was whispered among some that the seven chosen to march were naught but criminals, and had been condemned to exile in a terrible land.

But who sets stock in whisperings?

STEELSOIL - Mushroom succession fort

Mod! (https://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=15205)

Quote from: Rules! (modified from Smithsoldier/Dawnthunder)
Each turn lasts up to 1 dwarven year. When a previous overseer’s turn is done, you have 7 days to pick up the file and 2 weeks to play through (roughly; time may be extended under certain circumstances). Confirmation can be from a simple ‘I have the file’ to an update. If you do not post confirmation in 7 days, the player after you takes over. If you start but can’t finish, inform the thread and we’ll go back to the save before your turn.

- RP is optional – write in whatever style you find most comfortable, be it IC or OOC.

- Dorfings are open! Toss up a profession, name, etc. in-thread, and the current overseer will (when possible) find a suitable dorf for you.

- Anything goes for tile graphics, but for convenience's sake please convert the save back to ASCII before you pass the turn along!

- Exploits/DFHack/RAW edits/Savescumming: Taken on a case-by-case basis. Ask in-thread if you've got something especially cheaty in mind.

- Plump helmet consumption is cannibalism

Try not to break the fort beyond repair, if you can help it. That said: losing is fun!

When said beginnings are accomanied by the dread shufflings of the undead, things are hastier still.

Four days pass in a flurry of activity. A hole is squared; supplies are hauled. A hatch is set.

Having secured the essentials, the shroom-folk lock themselves in for the time being.

Tecàk the miner finishes the first level, and starts excavating downwards…

Four levels down, disaster!

The groundwater is far more vigorous than expected. A fungal curse escapes Tecàk's gills, and she moves upwards to prepare a space for food storage.


A little ways above, Tecàk the planter prepares her plots.

It would be sacreligious, to raise plump helmets for consumption. Cave wheat will grow here, when spring gives way to summer.

The silver had been intended for trade. With things as they are, it makes for a fine kiln.

It is a mystery of the shroomish psyche, that a shroom will not gather clay unless a kiln has been raised. The necessary structure in place, Nish can commence the gathering of a now-precious building material.

Having served its purpose, the kiln is demolished. Valuable workspaces emerge in the rooms surrounding.

The butchery is ready. A packbeast is marked for slaughter.

As the summer rolls in, quiet desperation holds sway in Deleradur.

(https://imgur.com/q3JnoBW.png)

(https://imgur.com/cmelUkL.png)

The bones and hide of the slain packbeasts take new shape under clumsy shroom-hands. Crude armor, intended for the one shroom in Steelsoil with knowledge in the ducking of blows.

(https://imgur.com/bJc9tD3.png)

It's not much, but together with the woodcutter's axe it just might save him.

(https://imgur.com/IYAdUBY.png)

Thus armed, the hapless militia commander is sent into the fray. The hatch swings shut behind him.

(https://imgur.com/Hyhau6A.png)

Swift blows are exchanged…

(https://imgur.com/kgqmp88.png)

...and Darål emerges victorious!

(https://imgur.com/Au8R5qd.png)

The hatch is thrown open. A second attempt at claiming the overland's bounty is made, this time with the militia commander standing guard.

(https://imgur.com/YtD9IrW.png)

Again too slow! A pair of ravens descend upon the fungal figures, skeletal and sinister.

(https://imgur.com/gcEIZ8k.png)

Darål raises his axe...

(https://imgur.com/zPUZmYh.png)

...and flees, terrified.
The flapping tormentors are on Urir the armorer in a blink. His flesh tears succulent under their claws.

Spoiler: ouch (click to show/hide)

With a desperate change of heart, Darål wheels back into the fray.

(https://imgur.com/7N3AuCr.png)

It's too late for Urir.

(https://imgur.com/al1u4Qi.png)

The grief of the commander becomes blood-fury. The limbs of the dead fly, shatter at the weight of his anger.

(https://imgur.com/4XZoLP8.png)

(https://imgur.com/TXDcIkI.png)

A raven claws at his greaves. The bones protect him.

(https://imgur.com/p8GrReC.png)

Death and death and death-- tiny skeletons soon litter the ground. Victorious at a heavy price, Darål returns to the earth-dark.

(https://imgur.com/mANDtL9.png)

There is sorrow in his footsteps.


Robbers of the dead!

(https://imgur.com/PRrvuSG.png)

(https://imgur.com/ozIky0X.png)

Desperate fury. The pick cannot be allowed to escape.

(https://imgur.com/Ucu2sUY.png)

The bone-dance begins. It is a good dance.

(https://imgur.com/2oucGKt.png)

Disaster.

(https://imgur.com/q70vyAa.png)

Crawling, the commander finishes off those that remain. Nish the woodcutter scurries to claim the pick.

(https://imgur.com/pG1nQoD.png)

At last, the hatch may be sealed in earnest.


Desperation.

(https://imgur.com/Xse8PnW.png)

(https://imgur.com/Q8x3t5A.png)
(https://imgur.com/wKWUHgE.png)

A family of five! And the skulls of the langurs still lurking about the entrance!

There is no time. The commander is indisposed. The parents must fend for themselves.

(https://imgur.com/GhmAh1e.png)

To her credit, the mother manages to fell both skulls after they cripple her.

(https://imgur.com/1hZCEtd.png)

The hatch is sealed. Crutches are prepared.

(https://imgur.com/cJ3MZKc.png)


The all-important pick reclaimed, Atir the herbalist (now sporting a brand-new pecan wood crutch) sets to probing at the aquifer.

(https://imgur.com/wFGhrWC.png)

(https://imgur.com/1mLqaJF.png)

Jubilation among the shroom-folk! A passage is found to the good bedrock!

(https://imgur.com/x3gaTOp.png)

With much relief, a new chamber is marked for excavation. Here will a dining hall be raised, in time.

(https://imgur.com/F26z8IZ.png)

(https://imgur.com/yeKjunk.png)


Desperation.

(https://imgur.com/B0EeOCd.png)

Darål refuses to move. There is no bucket with which to bring him water.

(https://imgur.com/kCG9arR.png)

The surface is guarded, and only Darål has the skill to contest it. There will be no more wood-gatherings.

(https://imgur.com/7dGU7ck.png)

Only the caravan and its guards can save the ailing militia commander now.

(https://imgur.com/xJWastW.png)

It's a tossup, whether he can survive that long.

Tiny bit smaller than dwarves, yah; maxsize 55000 to a dwarf's 60000. More importantly, they're boneless organisms composed entirely of soft plant tissue-- they break easily, and any damage dealt to their flesh is cumulative and permanent. These guys were never intended for Fortress Mode.

I'm tempted to make some creature tweaks at some point, now I think of it... a healing rate for the mushroom tissue (and a [SCARS] token for good measure!), and maybe a shorter childhood. What say y'all?


Too late for the broken hero.

(https://imgur.com/KhRPjCS.png)

There is grieving among the shroomfolk. Gently the planter Tecàk carries Darål's remains to a waiting coffin.

(https://imgur.com/yLXlmSD.png)

There are no bones, in the body of a shroom-- in time, Darål's flesh will crumble away to nothing. For now, he rests.

Life goes on. The caravan rolls by, and a contingent of pack-beasts detaches to make trade.

(https://imgur.com/4QXfJHQ.png)

The hatch is thrown open in reception. Liaison Mistêm scurries ahead to do business with leader Zasit.

A trade-guard follows, swift to defend her charges.

Taking advantage of the brief opening, a few Steelsoil shrooms make haste to gather the surface-logs! Safety and wood: it is as much as the struggling fortress could ask for.

(https://imgur.com/3blmXTp.png)

Steelsoil has little to offer the merchants from mountainhome. A few fresh-carved pots are swapped for similar measure of silk, as a show of goodwill.

This done, broker Zasit takes his leave.

Restless and vengeful, the armorer Urir looms ghostly over the corpse of miner Atir's four-year-old child. Atir stands beside, paralyzed by grief.

(https://imgur.com/iH1sr3U.png)

Having regained her faculties, Atir prepares a memorial for the specter— lest it take another of her sons.

(https://imgur.com/kMViNxP.png)
(https://imgur.com/hnoL1hY.png)

Urir will be remembered as a victim… and as a murderer.

Atir's husband takes it upon himself to raise the slab.

The flesh of Shorast is laid to rest by Darål. Together the two will molder.

Atir descends into the earth, to forget her troubles in labor's rhythm.

Only a little ways down, the stone burns warm at the pick--

(https://imgur.com/JmY6eri.png)

So close to the surface!

A capturing chamber is prepared, where the living stone is known to be. Smelters and forges will draw here from the earth's fire.

Shroom-folk will now accept medical care; wounds and fractures in their flesh close and scar at a rate of 500. Shroom-children reach maturity at the age of five, and shroom mothers will (hopefully) give birth to twins and triplets on a regular basis.

Like mushroom soup strained through the fabric of reality, a mighty power courses through Deleradur. The flesh of the shroom-folk twists with new life, and the minds of the shroom-folk turn to a new idea. A strange, sudden hope.

Clumsily leader Zasit binds the wounds of the maimed with thread and cloth.

Slowly the weeks trundle by, as the mushrooms go about their duties. Succulent flesh twists under cloth, moving, changing in new and wondrous ways.

Slow but sure… the wounds of the maimed fade away.

And here's (https://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=15208) the save! That was fun. :)

- Food supply will require some micromanagement, moving forward. I've been cooking flour and whatever meat is around, with a well for drinking water. Plump helmet consumption is cannibalism, and should be avoided if possible.

- Smith Rorul's hammering out a brace of hammers for the current militia now. They're unarmored, for the most part. Very squishy.

- The aquifer pierce is... functional, if a bit tangled. Be careful messing around in there-- aquifer is heavy-flow, and will absolutely flood the fortress if you crack it open wrong.

Beyond that: enjoy the shroom-ness. All luck to the next overseer!

Welcome back, fellow eaters.
I'd like to necro this thread because I can't see another place where I could tell this.
You shroomish people are like friends to me by now :')

I'm proud to announce that I am now a parent ! ;D
My wife gave birth to a boy the other day. I have aquired a happy thought there, and now have a baby to care for.

Though, I have some issues with the baby.
See, I'm really looking forward to introducing him to the Fungal World.
Since the Wizard is no more, I don't know how to show him the Way of the Mushroom.
The Wizard was wise in His teachings, but I feel lost without His presence. I don't want this newborn to become a pesky fruit-eater !

What do you guys think ? How does one preach Mushrooms to a new born ?
Is it possible he is the reincarnation of the holy Wizard ? If so, I must introduce him to Mushrooms right away !

Help me ! ???
Title: Re: Eat your Mushrooms
Post by: King Zultan on May 12, 2021, 04:25:40 am
You should probably start him on a regiment of mushrooms early so he learns to appreciate them.

As for the Wizard I'm not sure we can replace him.

Mushrooms for babies... hmm.

From what I'm seeing, there's no particular reason not to give mushrooms to a baby once it's ready for solid food... probably once they're 8-12 months old? Just be sure to cook the mushrooms first.

Post by: Yoink on May 18, 2021, 09:52:06 pm
I'm pretty sure they sell baby food with glorious mushroom in it. Check the child accessories aisle of your local grocery.   

Or I'm sure you could make some yourself? Tinned mushrooms often come as a pile of goop, a lot like baby food.   


I miss the wizard. I think, after his myriad incarnations throughout the centuries, he either attained something akin to Nirvana or moved to another plane for some other reason. I fear we may not see him again in this world.

In truth, I come here to be sad. When I come here it reminds me how truly lonely I am.
I can't break the chains of my own behaviours yet here I try.
A grand exodus of wisdom. I am abusive and abuse my power. I reach until I fall. I am no different to they.
I am you and you are me. Eternally interconnected and yet I feel disconnected from you, disrespected, disregarded and then finally I am disposed.
What does it take for my anger to go.
How do I live like this?
Every time I come here I want to talk yet there is nothing here.
Nothing I need, just distractions and I leave dispossessed.
I think it's time we all knew the truth.

But does Jesus bring us mushrooms?

Actually for real now, there are some Czech folk tales with Jesus and saint Peter wandering the world together, and I remember one when they get bread from some good people, and Peter is hungry ans soon eats it all himself forthwith, then Jesus turns back and says "Bruh" and Peter tries to hide the fact by throwing away the crumbs secretly, and the crumbs become mushrooms. And they say, because Peter couldn't sate himself with the crumbs, mushrooms won't sate you much.



Actually that's genius I need to draw this now

I already made several spells related to food secrets that either eliminate hunger for several months or produce food (cooked salmon) or summon a feedling creature you can eat/drops chunks of meat off its tail for you to eat or a master chef who cooks the best meals. Though the chef is intelligent so you can't eat them, have to find something for him to cook.

Sadly, haven't made many mushroomy things directly. One tiny plump helmet man variant that flees from everything and tosses bursts of spores to enable its escape and I think one unintelligent critter you can eat. Dryads are also a combination of fleshy torso, woody/plant upper limbs and mushroom lower limbs. They're simultaneously animal, plant and fungus. But they're also intelligent so you can't eat them.

One of my mods involved invasions of mushrooms that woukd turn your citizens into immobile mushrooms for one year.
As an "unintended" side effect, said mushrooms were classified as animals until they changed back and could be pastured and, yes, butchered and eaten. (To limit this, I made it so that those who ate the mushrooms would also turn into muahrooms.)
Title: Re: Eat your Mushrooms
Post by: Quaksna on December 12, 2021, 06:34:50 am
Oh yes, I had a similar experience with my mod, our fortress was visited by a necromancer who has also learned secrets of the animal sphere, giving him the ability to call beasts and turn into one. When we attacked him, he turned into a great lion and was slain in this form, his remnants were butchered forthwith and were made into a raincoat or something.

This visit also exposed an error in my interaction definition, as in the first try, somehow, all sentient beings on the map turned into animals indefinitely.

That'swhat happens when you miss that lovely LINE_OF_SIGHT flag on CDIs that don't have either a short max range or max target number. I forgot it on food wizards on the first pass and as soon as I had one to test they spawned heaps of salmon under every unit on the map. Just ridiculous quantities of fish, everywhere.

I also forgot it on a lightning interaction once. A wizard in a city started casting lightning bolts on every one in range even though you couldn't see him.

This is an attack directly at our love energy or our heart chakras.
A lung disease and an innoculation that causes heart damage.
Face masks remove ease of micro emotional detections.
I am so high on mushrooms I see through the curtain of illusions they hold so dear. Once it's translucent powder settles in the corners of your eyes and you wipe away the sleep you will see.
I once was ignorant to it and I hoped I was wrong. If I was brought up in a happy wealthy family maybe I would be happily ignorant but I am not.
I'm wrathful. Our humanity is in our hearts. Don't let go of the love and conviction that creates us.
I don't even know.
To scream into a void.
Title: Re: Eat your Mushrooms
Post by: IndigoFenix on December 15, 2021, 08:50:33 am
Rage destroys.  Do not trust it.
An angel hates corruption, but a demon fears control.
Humanity must evolve into one of the two.  And if we become the demon, we will be swiftly destroyed - if not by ourselves, by those who preceded us.
How can one tell the difference?
If you judge all equally, regardless of how powerful they are - that is the angel's voice.
If you equate power with corruption - this is because you fear the powerful and need a reason to justify it.  This is the demon.
Fear of power is what leads to corruption.
Demons take all they can because they believe it will be taken from them. This is what breeds violence.
Angels place the well-being of all above their own.  They fight swiftly, effectively, only when it is needed, and only when they can win.

It is not a choice by man, but rather the Cosmic Will imposing itself upon humanity to force us to evolve.
The Venom of the Crown.
The disease attacks the heart (rarely) and lungs (frequently).
The inoculation is the same substance as the disease, minus the more significant, common symptoms.  So the weaker, rare ones are all that is left. Many fail to understand this.
Even more frequently, it attacks the smell and taste - the physical senses, the means by which we indulge in this earthly plane.
Animal temptations.
The Serpent's punishment applied to millions.
And for what? Just as before, evil speech, slander, and lies. And so these are the tools by which the Venom spreads.
And the cure? To look within and isolate ourselves.  A chance for meditation and reflection.
And to learn to connect at a distance.
The Supernal Man is being born.  Cells within a cosmic body.  Fixed in position, to become part of something greater.

It is indeed said that Hobbits had a passion for mushrooms, surpassing even the greediest likings of "Big People".

That's the collection of mushrooms he has there, but why is his hand turning into a snail looking thing?

He's been rubbing the mushrooms all over his hand instead of eating them. Never do this.

Isn't it weird just thinking about how the "mushroom" part of the mushroom is a deception brewed to keep man from delving deep into the soil to find the true mushroom?

Still eating mushrooms as of November 2023

As I can see, humans in November 2023 entertain themselves by randomly generating pictures of mushrooms.
Interresting....

It’s just a group of friendly dwarves…
