Mycelar

Fungal Hive-collective xenosapient species from the Jungle moon Myca.

Mycelar are a fungal sapient species from Myca, a humid Jungle moon deep in the Rim. Each Mycelar body is a fruiting structure of a vast subsurface mycelial network. They share a continuous low-level telepathic link with other Mycelar within range, giving them an instinctive coordination that unsettles other species. Mycelar reproduce by spore seeding and do not experience individual death the way carbon species do -- when a body dies, its memories persist in the network. The Confederation regards them with cautious respect, though their collective mindset makes them poor at individual negotiation. They excel as xenobotanists, medics, and survival specialists.
