In the Dungeons and Dragons fantasy role-playing game, the phantom fungus is a dangerous plant which lives underground. It has a central, plantal, greenish-brown body with a large, toothed mouth and four stumpy legs. Growing from its shoulders are 6 (3 on each side) clusters of 6 tubular nodules arranged in a hexagonal shape. Coming from the holes between each of the 6 nodules in a cluster, is a long, pink, clawed tentacle.
When in its natural habitat (fungal caves) the phantom fungus blends in perfectly and can barely be seen. This means it is invisible except when dead. Its primary goal in life is to hunt, grappling victims with its nodule tentacles and bringing them to its mouth.
They cannot speak.
They are regarded as neutral in alignment.
