In addition to typical druids, some evil druids abandon the paths of green and growing things and commit their souls to the depths of depravity, reveling in rot and decay in the service of the demon-queen of fungus. These druids leave their living bodies behind, consigning their flesh to decay and ruin as fungus and spores sprout and spread, dissolving their tissues into a deliquescent mass that clings to their bones in a blighted semblance of their former appearance crossed with a misshapen feminine guise that evokes their demonic mistress. Fungus queens seek to enslave the living beings they once might have befriended and protected, forging them into an army of moldering soldiers and fungus beasts.'
