Blackcap

Blackcaps are malicious mushroom creatures of the Feygloam that live to serve powerful masters such as druids, hags, or members of fey royalty. Though small in stature, blackcaps share telepathic links with each other that allow them to work extraordinarily well in groups. Blackcaps are born when the body of a good-aligned creature dies in the Feygloam and is left to rot without burial. The essence of the decomposing creature attracts ambient fungal spores that take root within the corpse and quickly develop into one or several blackcaps depending on the size of the deceased creature. Infused with the magic of the Feygloam, many blackcaps are able to cast spells that spread poison, disease, and decay amongst anything in their path.

Blackcaps revel in playing mean tricks on anyone they can, often to the extent of causing great physical or mental harm to their targets. They can use their hallucinogenic spores to misdirect their targets, and in some instances have been known to harass victims over extended periods of time with their hallucinations, gaslighting them into succumbing to a twisted version of reality.
