My New Idea - Creature Idea - Small mushroom people

[MushyroomMan]

Just a thought but i would love to see small mushroom people running around your dungeon as incompetent creatures that maybe follow imps or maybe as a food source or a limited worker. The name for it would be mushman or somthing(not good with names). they would be smaller then imps only capable of carrying items and digging(really slowly) this would give the imps more time towork in rooms and claim land. the mushroom people would die in 1 hit from any creature and are the first one into a new room (basically throw themselves to distract a enemy). they would imatate the imps and bury an imp neck deep on a block in the mush room and force feed it dirt and other items the imp would act as a small dark mother (so sacrifice an imp and get a tiny colony of mush people they would get a bed spot for about ten or so to sleep at once and dont require much food. (they are almost entirely uslessly pathtic creatures that think an imp should be the dark mother)

all this only if you can program this

OMG! Format FAIL! LOL, just breakin ya balls man LOL...

This might would be fun as an NPC that roams about, and receives abuse from your minions to brighten their spirits. Imps being Dark Motherish to these guys, I don't know, ya lost me there. Imps are the unsung bastards of your dungeon who do all the menial tasks, and receive abuse from all your more useful minions. They do all this and they are content because they live to serve and have no mind of their own.

sorry about the formating i just had to kinda had to jot all of it down.
And yea they could be a neutral creature that when comes into a vicinity of a larger (maybe) smarter creature they follow them and then the creature could slap them for fun each creature having a diffrent tolerance to the annoyingness. i dont care what they turn out to be but as long as they get added and are annoying then i love it

IF they become a really weak imp in game then heres a format
COST TO SUMMON: 1 stone,1 wood
COST FOR ROOM: 2 stone per tile
Things for room: Hallow log
Cost for Log: 2 wood
sorry i didnt add this before the addability of this may be hard to do

I think mushroom folk strike me more as a neutral foe, something that isn't part of your crew, something in like, an underground grove sort of biome. I see them pestering both humans, and demons a like.

as long as they are annoying and in game i love it

[Rasmus]

This all sounds very cute I must say Having small mushroom men running around after the imps could work as an NPC just as Flappy does (but hopefully less annoying)

But we can't make them too cute...

[MushyroomMan]

   
no of course we cant have to cute but maybe a bit like this

[Davgoblin]

Oh, what are those called again.. Mygoniods or.. Hold on.. Ah, yeah.. Myconids I have found memories of these mushroom guys in the game Slayer for the 3D0.

[MushyroomMan]

i looked up the name and it brought up dungeons and dragons

[Davgoblin]

Yeah, its a D&D creature. Slayer for the 3d0 was actually Advanced Dungeons & Dragons: Slayer. It was like a first person dungeon crawler. Hm, could this be an advanced farmer unit, maybe? I've been trying to figure out something that might fill that niche.

[MushyroomMan]

A creature to run the farms would be nice it could also add mushrooms and other fungus as a farmable material by them being a fungus they would naturaly create more or maybe it could be
