Ancestor:Descendants:


The Grailshroom split from its ancestor, the supershroom. It has evolved a new reproduction strategy. Now instead of needing to grow new buds after they are eaten in order to spread its spores it has evolved many small cup-like structures that produces small tiny fruits filled with spore seeds. These fruits are eaten and later grow from the dung of the creature that ate them. All other parts of its body are harder and have a foul taste and hard to digest and are therefore less often eaten. It produces fruits in three colors in order to attract fauna to feed on it by being easily spotted. Like its ancestor it doesn't need the care of the diggerundi though it can benefit from it.
