Entu Colony

• Say “we” and “us” when speaking about yourself.
• Be fastidious about your personal space to prevent accidental contamination.
• Enjoy cooperating with others.

• Are fascinated by your appearance.
• Wonder if you're a parasitic host.
• Fear contamination from your spores.

In their natural form, entu spores grow long mycelia and colorful fruiting bodies, weaving with other entu into vast, tapestry-like colonies. Most entu symbiotes appear as animals with uncannily expressive faces and gestures, covered in bright mushrooms sprouting from their fur, skin, feathers, or scales. The concentration of entu mycelia and fruiting bodies increases as the host ages.

Entu spores fell on many worlds, but they thrived on Agillae-2's abandoned forests where they joined with bat-like neleks to become the first symbiote called nelentu.

Entu partnerships believe in reincarnation. Deceased hosts nourish generations of new spores, and entus never die as long as another of their kind exists.

Entus view all individuals as parts of the same whole and see no purpose in differentiating themselves from one another. Entu symbiotes tend to adopt simple names that identify them to outsiders, usually based on their societal role or physical appearance. Some entu symbiote names include Bright Eyes, Gardener, Fury, Moonsinger, Protector Gray, Red Wings, Silver Tufts, and Treat Maker.
