[QUOTE="Stilvan, post: 4286838, member: 56264"] Ok I realize that what I'm about to say doesn't have to have anything to do with a fantastical race of forest-dwelling mushroom men, but I feel I should point out that one of the defining characteristics of mushrooms is that they "do not produce their own food by means of photosynthesis". Mushrooms are happiest when treated like low ranking employees - kept in the dark and fed excrement. I think the Photosynthesis ability is great as written but to my eyes, the name is a bit dissonant, similar to seeing a race of Fish-men regain health by standing on land. I propose that the name and triggering effect be changed. Mushroom men could regenerate either when in the (deep) shade and/or when standing in a pile of filth (which should be common in mushroom-like mushroom-men settlements). "Cooling Respite" and "Deep Cover" are a pair of alternative names. Other than that minor quibble the writeup is fantastic. Thanks for your hard work! [/QUOTE]
