This creature looks like a brown and greenish-brown mass with a cluster of nodules atop the main mass, though it is visible only when dead. A cluster of nodules atop the main mass serve as sensory organs. The creature feeds and attacks with a gaping maw lined with rows of teeth. Four stumpy legs support the creature and allow it to move about. This ambulatory
fungus is naturally invisible, making it a feared predator among subterranean inhabitants.
A phantom
fungus usually roams quietly, hunting for prey. It attacks lone individuals almost anywhere, but when tackling groups it prefers an open space where it has a better chance .
Greater Invisibility (Su): This ability is constant, allowing a phantom
fungus to remain invisible even when attacking. It works like
greater invisibility (
caster level 12th) and lasts as long as the phantom
fungus is alive. This ability is not subject to the
invisibility purge spell. A phantom
fungus becomes visible 1 minute after it is killed.
