You are a mushroom
« on: January 11, 2013, 06:54:16 pm »

As the name implies, you are a mushroom. What do you do?

Edit: This will be extremely minimalist. Expect to see little more except a summary of what's going on and the phrase "What do you do?".

Be atrociously poisonous, have large mycelium, be a tree parasite, and disperse LOADS of spores.

And still get plucked by someone too stupid or hungry to care about how poisonous we are.

Also gain the ability to animate anything we kill as zombies.

Or hallucinogenics that make the animals blunder into predators. We then infest the predators intestines and digest it from the inside.

Evolve. Become mobile. Become invisible. Inject spores into people, where they grow and 'eat' the victimhappily pregnant host mother from the inside out!

Be the kid of mushroom that infects ants and makes the ant turn into a mushroom that turns other ants into mushrooms.

Guys if we're a mushroom it doesn't matter if our fruiting body gets plucked- the spongy bit that people eat is only the reproductive organ: the mushroom-proper is the weblike mycelium that lives underground or in the tree bark etc.

By my calculations, the time from when I go to sleep at night to when I get home in the afternoon is about 15 hours. Maybe 16, if I get to sleep unusually early, or 14 when I stay up too late. And that requires me to start a game right before I go to sleep.

You begin thinking, and decide to become poisonous and be a tree parasite. You get depressed for a while, though, because god went to sleep, but no worries! Soon you have your new tree-murdering powers! You then think about the future of your species, and try to reproduce. After several hours of failed catcalling at passing insects, you remember you spread by spores. You shoot of millions of spore, spreading tree-death around the world! MUAHAHAHA! What'll the puny humans do now, without their precious "wood" or "paper"?! What do you do? As a mushroom, not a puny human without your precious "wood" or "paper".
