Mushrooms



This is a Forest Exploration Event. It can occur multiple times per play through and offers the chance to get Ancient Knowledge,  Raw Meat and  Strange Mushrooms, as well as an opportunity for a survivor to gain a significant boost to their Wisdom skill - albeit at the risk of incurring  Paranoia.

Inspect
A lot of big, colourful mushrooms are growing here.

Lie in Wait x1
Note: This is a 'red' option, meaning the 'entity' will disappear once this action is taken! Relevant Skills:  Hunting  You lie in wait for any animal attracted by the mushroom fragrance. After a while, a bunch of fat, red squirrels come and start to stuff themselves with mushrooms!

Pick Up x1
Relevant Skills:  Harvesting ,  Wisdom  You pick up a bunch of the less dangerous-looking mushrooms. It's strange... Ever since you touched the mushrooms, you seem to hear faint voices in your head. "EAT ME", they say.


 *  Listen to the voices. ( Wisdom )


 * Failure :They do look tasty... You eat a full mushroom in one bite. It tastes like the earth... and it's quite mushy. You're knocked out for a few hours. When you wake up, you feel strange.

 * + The participating survivor gains the disease [[file:Disease.png|25px]] Paranoia, which is permanent until healed.
 * Success :You remember stories of people who ate special mushrooms to speak to their gods. You carefully press the mushroom of their liquids and take a small bite. You feel nothing for a while, then the magic kicks in. You close your eyes. You see the camp. Everyone is so busy. You move backwards and.... You're a bird, flying over the island. A shadow is looming in the forest. Places are flashing in front of your eyes, people. Angry Vikings, blue skinned beings... You pull yourself together. That was a strange experience. You feel strange but good. You thank the gods for the vision.

 * Success : That's not normal. You carefully wrap the mushrooms inside some rags. If they are the cause of your hallucinations, this might do the trick to make them stop. You guess... Someone might know at camp.
