Farmer's Webcap Mushroom

Farmer's Webcap mushrooms are a type of fungi which are commonly found growing on forest floors or other areas where dead plants and rotting wood can be found. They have wide, flat caps that are caramel-brown in colour, with dark brown spores. Webcaps take their name from a 'web' which appears on younger mushrooms, linking the bottom of the cap with the stem to shield growing spores. They are native to the Scavenger Lands and eastern coast of the Blessed Isle.

The mushrooms are used in cooking to add a meaty flavour and texture. Both poor peasants who cannot afford meat and Immaculate clergy who have vowed not to partake in animal flesh favour them in their cooking.

Farmer's Webcaps are often confused with similar species: the psychoactive Dreamer's Webcap Mushroom and the deathly poisonous Fool's Webcap Mushroom.
