....Of the above, it was close between myconids and dryads. Dryad breaks the tie due to smokin' hottiness.

Sigh ... there is that, of course. We can't compete with them in THAT regard, that's for sure.

I don't know, Myc. All you need to do is take a mycanoid, give it a feminine shape, along with all the fun female parts. Make 'em more elf-like, since elves are always top on the hotty lists. Spells are sexy, so maybe give 'em some spell like abilities associated with nature and charm. The giant mushroom cap might have to go. They need a good defense, so give them the ability to meld into something, say a tree since fungi is normally associated with decay. You might have to change their type from plant to fey, because they are usually associated with beauty.. Voila! The myconids have “hottiness” to compete with dryads in just a few simple steps.

Hmm ... seems a pile of effort just to please two legged bipedal mammals whenever a certain chemical reaction combined with mood swings result in irrational behavior.

Besides. All myconid reproduce by themselves via spores. No real "gender" amongst us as among the other species or "kinds" or genus' or whatever they are called.... :\

Perhaps, but you have you tried THESE myconids?

Behold the wonderfully charming Sporeggar!

Hmm ... is this also a WoW thing? Never heard of them ... then again, there are LOTS of things I haven't heard of, so I am not surprised.

Well ... yes ... there ARE a few amongst us who cannot take the mind meld and sorta ... lose it.

Actually that could make a decent plot arc, Myconids capturing hot humanoid women in order to experiment on them to create a new race of Myconid. One that would be more attractive and acceptable to humanoid societies rather than as a freakish thing to use as the ingredients for hallucinagenic potions by stoner wizards... A race of ambassadors to promote good relations between the fungi and humanoid communities across the planes

Yup, that's a wiki page about the mushroom people of WoW. You can click on the links there for art, more about their culture, the quests they send adventurers on and so on. Most of it translates reasonably well to D&D.

Hmm ... many thanks. I will bookmark the link and look into it later on. Perhaps some concrete ideas will emerge. I have a lot of ideas swirling around, of course. But you know how it is sometimes. Only takes a "something" to catalyst a chain of things to form something interesting.

Anyhoo ... sorry for the thread hijacking. Back to the plants poll!

DAGNABIT!! I meant to vote for the mycanid, but, alas, I clicked the smart-alek option...
