Bramblegut Portrait

“Why fight with steel when you can weaponize mold?”

Race: Firbolg
Class: Ranger / Sporekeeper (Swarmkeeper)
Alignment: Chaotic Curious

🌿 Backstory

Bramblegut hails from a hidden hollow deep inside the Bloomrot Wilds, where fungi grow as tall as trees and the soil hums with secrets. He spent decades experimenting on himself with herbal brews, hallucinogenic spores, and questionable potions — the results speak for themselves:

His hair glows faintly green in moonlight.
He once lived inside a giant mushroom for a year.
He claims he can speak to mold — but only the polite strains.

🧪 Habits

Harvests mushrooms from anything: forest logs, sewer rats, tavern floors.
Keeps a spore journal that doubles as a snack menu.
Has been banned from three apothecaries for unsolicited fungus donations.

🪶 Signature Items

Spore Satchel: Pouches filled with mysterious dried mushrooms.
Lantern of Embers: His Emberlantern guild token, customized with moss.
Living Swarm: Tiny spores hover near him, protecting him like invisible bodyguards.

🧙‍♂️ Rumors

He’s immortal — or maybe just very moldy.
Some say if you stand close enough, you can hear the spores whisper.
Once grew mushrooms on a paladin’s shield as a prank. The paladin was not amused.

“When all you have is a spore, everything looks like fertile ground.”
