Yet fills you up as much as a dandelion seed!
So... giant seeds, or tiny emu?

Was the Furry Fiddle inspired by the Fur-Bearing Trout?

WAITWAITWAIT
mushrooms
ants
cordyceps confirmed?????
[/quote]
i'm going with yes
[item=fungal garden][item=armored colony]
[/quote]
Possibly an inspiration! Cordyceps are parasitic though, so if they [i]were[/i] the culprits our new little armadillo friends would basically be walking corpses, their minds hijacked by the fungal infection :^D
(Disclaimer: all I know about cordyceps is from a Wikipedia skim, and assorted articles in which people with much more Science Smartz than me break down how the scenario in survival game [i]The Last of Us[/i] (which uses zombies based on a mutated cordyceps strain) is not actually feasible. I think linking them directly might break FR’s image gore rules, but they’re neat if you’re ever curious!)

i'm familiar with cordyceps actually! wrote quite a bit on them in college.
flight rising tends to veer towards softer interperetations of diseases these days, so we might never get Proper Cordyceps, but i'm happy with any mushroom-in-animal familiar.
and we technically already have a cordyceps-inspired familiar in the form of [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/game-database/item/619/]parasitic fungus[/url] and its counterpart [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/game-database/item/618]bramble guardian[/url]
in fact, i maintain that by its naming, the familiar in the parasitic fungus is the Fungus Itself, and the lizard is just a host body - taking the more sci-fi approach in which the fungus is (or can become) sentient with the aid of a biological brain. i mean, we already have walking mushrooms, it's not much of a stretch.
i was just having a bit of fun taking the existing elements in the update (mushrooms, ants) and extrapolating a likely theme
i'm hoping we'll get one more mushrooms-in-animals familiar out of this update, because while i now have four i can put on my dragons, more is always good (grumbling about how we can only put one copy of a familiar on any dragon goes here)
i'll take a look at the last of us cordyceps though, never got around to playing that so i don't think i've seen them

Oh, cool! Sorry if it seemed like I was trying to ’splain it to or correct you or something; I am very giddy about this entire update, and got extra excited seeing these mentioned x'D
But yeah, I was forgetting about those lizards, very cool! And hoping for the same; if any venue’s gonna have more shroom animals, the Mire’s a great candidate. Multiple copies would be great; fingers crossed for a Fiona recolor or two, maybe?
Thanks for replying!
This creature's carefully cultivated assortment of fungi may help it attract a mate, though it is also known to gather mushrooms purely for its own enjoyment.

Armored Colony
Familiar
A symbiotic pair of creatures. The fungi benefit from being nurtured by different soil every evening, while the mammal benefits from a poisonous hide.
