Vegepygmies live together in a group, typically no larger than 16 members large, with those who bear spores being turned into the chiefs of their tribes. It is unknown how it is that the mold came to spawn them, or what created the mold, but it is believed to not be a curse, as the vegepygmies are not by nature evil. Vegepygmies are formed when russet mold consumes a body of a humanoid, beast, or giant, reforming from the remains of the previously living creature. They possess no hair, and their eyes are the same color as their flesh, appearing like spheres in their head. Vegepygmies are short moss-like humanoids, around 3 to 4 feet tall, and they have mottled plant-flesh, which can be dark green, deep blue, brown, or dark orange.
