 A broad fungus, looking much like a glowing blue sunflower. It appears to emit finer spores than the typical fungal emission. 

This creature is a cow sized fungus. It's an awful fighter with very low hit points. It's as fast as you, clumsy, has low armor against bashing weapons and low armor against cutting ones (that includes bullets). Its special ability allows it to release spore clouds, every 25 turns.

It has extremely high morale and it's totally aggressive. Being a fungus, it's afraid of being hurt, nearby fires, and can be angered by nothing in particular.

It can hear noises, is able to track noises particularly well, has no distinguishable head (it's unaffected by head shots), is poisonous to eat (produces tainted meat when butchered), cannot move, doesn't breathe (it's not affected by smoke, toxic gases, drowning, etc), can produce plant marrow and plant fibre when butchered, and nothing else.

Being made of vegetable matter, it's vulnerable to fire, smoke and, particularly, tear gas and radioactive gas.

When it dies, it releases spore clouds.


Notes

Found in the fungal flowers area. Like fungaloids, these are passive and constantly emit spores around them; unlike fungaloids, they are immobile.

While in the reality bubble, it will emit a haze every 25 turns that turns the surrounding area within a 3-tile radius into fungal terrain. Similar to fungaloids but much faster. This haze causes spore infection without proper protection.

Trees caught in the haze can be turned into additional fungal blossoms. This can lead to very fast butterfly effect.
