Moss dwarfs have a natural affinity for plants and fungi. They are immune to fungal poisons and, as they age, become riddled with symbiotic plants and fungi.
Moss dwarfs are unaffected by harmful fungal poisons or spores.
Moss dwarfs have a 2-in-6 chance of hearing noises
As a moss dwarfs advances in level, their dank, fertile flesh picks up seeds and spores which germinate into symbiotic plants and fungi. At each experience level (including 1st), the character acquires a random trait from the Fertile Flesh table. Duplicates may be re-rolled or taken to indicate an amplification of the trait.
