The large, bowl-shaped pod atop its body collects mineral-rich moisture—-whether runoff from cave walls or fresh blood—-for sustenance. It uses hallucinogenic spores to incapacitate prey long enough for it to beat its prey to a bloody pulp, then deposits the deliciously tenderized remains into this pod for consumption. A basidirond is over 6 feet tall and 3 to 4 feet wide, and weighs nearly 300 pounds when saturated. **__Recall Knowledge - Fungus__ (__Nature__)**: DC 20' hp: 80 hp_misc: null immunities: - cold - mental items: null knowledge_checks: dc: 20 skills: - Nature languages: null level: 5 melee: - action_cost: One Action damage: formula: 2d8+6 type: bludgeoning name: frond plus_damage: - formula: null type: basidirond spores to_hit: 15 traits: null name: Basidirond perception: 8 proactive_abilities: - action_cost: None critical_failure: null critical_success: null description: '**Saving Throw **DC 22 Fortitude; **Maximum Duration **6 rounds; **Stage 1** 1d8 poison damage and __enfeebled 1__ (1 round); **Stage 2** 1d10 poison damage and enfeebled 1 (1 round); **Stage 3** 1d12 poison damage and enfeebled 2 (1 round)' effect: null effects: null failure: null frequency: null full_description: null generic_description: null name: Basidirond Spores range: null raw_description: '**Basidirond Spores** (__disease__) **Saving Throw **DC 22 Fortitude; **Maximum Duration **6 rounds; **Stage 1** 1d8 poison damage and __enfeebled 1__ (1 round); **Stage 2** 1d10 poison damage and enfeebled 1 (1 round); **Stage 3** 1d12 poison damage and enfeebled 2 (1 round)' requirements: null success: null traits: - disease trigger: null - action_cost: Two Actions critical_failure: null critical_success: null description: "The basidirond releases a cloud of invisible spores in a 20-foot emanation.\ \ Each creature in the area must succeed at a DC 22 Fortitude save or experience\ \ powerful hallucinations as long as it remains in the cloud, plus an additional\ \ 1d4 rounds after leaving the area.
