	An unfortunate superstition that Psyphoza 'meat' and 'blood' contain powerful psychedelics has caused many individuals of the species to be targeted, and hunted, by rich & eccentric individuals who wish to taste their flesh, and learn the truth for themselves. Unfortunately for Psyphoza, this superstition is completely true...		An unfortunate superstition that Psyphoza 'meat' and 'blood' contain powerful psychedelics has caused many individuals of the species to be targeted, and hunted, by rich & eccentric individuals who wish to taste their flesh, and learn the truth for themselves. Unfortunately for Psyphoza, this superstition is completely true...

	Although most Psyphoza have left behind a majority of the especially superstitious ideas of their progenitors, some lower caste members still cling to these old ideas as strongly as ever. These beliefs impact their culture deeply, resulting in very different behaviors between the typical and lower castes~~; such as naming, among other things~~. Names in this lower caste will typically represent a mystic concept from their culture, which is believed to lead the life of that individual.

	~~There are two Psyphoza naming conventions-~~

	# Names are constructed as following <code>[latin firstname] [mushroomspecies - preferable scientific]</code>. This should produce names like 'Clara Amanita' or 'Caeser Subaeruginosa'.		Names are constructed as following <code>[latin firstname] [mushroomspecies - preferable scientific]</code>. This should produce names like 'Clara Amanita' or 'Caeser Subaeruginosa'.
	# Names are loosely constructed as following <code>[adjective] [mystical concept]</code>. This should produce names like 'Mindful Impermanence' or 'Overwhelming Kenoma'. This convention isn't as strict as the first, and can be used to play into the superstitious facet of the lore.

	~~Random names, generated in-game, follow the first convention~~.

			* Psyphoza have their own language, Sonus, which they can use to discretely communicate with other members of their species. Psyphoza also known Sylvian, the language of the plant people.
			* Because Psyphoza are blind, they also have access to all the generic blind features. However, their psychic sense integrates into this, making it much more useful.

	Psyphoza, although blind, can use their psychic sense to navigate their surroundings with relative ease. Additionally, Psypohza fit quite nicely into detective roles, as their psychic sense allows them to sense the unique presence of others, whether that be the person themself or the trace they've left on an item, like a fingerprint. Otherwise, Psyphoza also work well in scouting roles, as they can vaguely sense scenes through walls, an especially useful ability for exploration.
