Oulitis

The Oulitis is an incredibly fowl-smelling fungus that is native to the Bolgerwater area. It is used for many medical elixirs and ointments, often carrying its stench over to them. It glows until it is taken off of its stem.

The Oulitis was discovered by King Oulitis V of the Hooklands, a Darkness Era King that preferred to take his hunts within the highly-dangerous Bolgerwater rather than safer forests. He discovered the fungus after his party was waylaid by Bullywugs and many of his guards were killed, the rest leaving him for dead. He was starving within the forest and found the plant, ignoring its stench and eating it. The plant was very filling, and he kept a pack of them with him while he traveled by to civilization.

Once King Oulitis arrived back to civilization, he named the mushrooms after himself, and ordered them to be studied for their filling and medicinal effects.

The Smell
The smell is a disgusting sour-sweet smell that has been compared to the gases from a rotting body.
