Introduction
No movement, no sound from animals or birds. Barely
a wisp of air, it feels like the land is holding its breath. It
takes time for you to focus and then comprehend what
you’re seeing. Strange but familiar shapes seem to have
almost sprung out of the ground.
Growing upwards getting bigger, the shapes are familiar,
but the size is wrong. Mushrooms just don’t grow that big
- 6’, 8’! Then beyond that a whole forest of mushrooms
some are so big that it seems they almost block out the sun.
Multi-colored and grouped together in and around the
larger ones. The strong earthy smell of growth is almost
overpowering. Then, as you draw closer, their colors are
dazzling, almost enough to make your head spin.
There is a mist rising above the tree-sized mushrooms as
far as the eye can see…
Welcome to The Fungal Forest. The adventure is set up so
the player characters (PC’s) can encounter different types
of situations and different styles of adventure, allowing for
role-playing within a rural environment, with wandering
monsters, and a dungeon encounter with new monsters. The
module offers a chance for the GM to immerse themselves
and their players with as much or little detail as they want
to put in. Rolling countryside surrounds the forest for miles
giving you, the GM, the opportunity to fit the adventure into
almost any setting within your game. I have left the ending
open, allowing the GM to slot in further encounters or
adventure twists to keep the game moving but with enough
happening to turn it into more than one session if so desired.

The Plot
There are several options for the plot
1. Investigating the strange mushroom forest, where
does it come from?
2. The PCs could see the tower in the distance rising
up slightly higher than the giant mushrooms. There
could be wealth within those walls.
3. They may be following the map from The Deep or
The Infected Village adventures written by me –
these both lead towards the Fungal Forest and the
Tower.
4. The PCs may be trying to cure the Blighted villagers
they possibly saved in the Infected Village adventure.
Or Possibly trying to find the cure for one of the
PCs from the Blight.
5. A Local village Elder has asked the PCs to investigate
the Fungal Forest.
a. To clear the area of the strange creatures
b. To somehow put a stop to the Fungal Forest’s
encroachment into the local farmland.
There are rolling hills and farmlands surroundings the
Fungal Forest. The ruined road is rutted and full of potholes.
It doesn’t appear to have been used in many years. When the
rains come, what’s left of the road turns into a quagmire and
is very difficult to traverse. The road is gradually disappearing
into the countryside and the forest of mushrooms in the
distance.
