Description
A couple of hybrid transformations, courtesy of an artifact a witch so carelessly left out.We have a lovely young girl becoming a deeragon. An interesting combo, cute with the little horns.
Then we have a guy breathing in some pollen and becoming a fox-plant hybrid. He's already photosynthesizing, and his roots are trying to grow into the soil for some nutrients. And it looks like some opportunistic fungus have already begun growing on him. While they do grow through his skin and the hyphae spread everwhere within his body, they shouldn't be called parasites. They provide vital enzymes for digestion, CO2, as well as antibiotics, a godsend for a plant without an immune system. Perhaps even a source of light, like in the bioluminescent foxfire fungus. In return, our botanical friend provides a mobile home, energy, and a very convenient spore dispersal. He may not like the fungi at first, but once he realizes all the benefits, they'll grow on him (and in him, setting up a little nuclei in his brain to make him happy to have them). The lichen are just along for the ride.
Had the plant-fox hybrid stirring around in the back of my head for a year. I tried to design him so that scientifically he works out, and while I didn't go into detail about his anatomy and physiology, its there. Deeragon was for a friend. And practicing backgrounds, wooh!

Uhh, could I get the pollen without the brain manipulating fungi?

But then you can't photosynthesize!

Yeah, but I'd have wings, quite an advantage...

For a time. You can only evade the spores for so long...

Yes. IΒ have given over control ofΒ my life to the wise and handsome fungus. Look how happy I am now. All should surrender to the supreme andΒ benevolent fungus, long may it grace our presence.Β *offers you a wriggling mushroom* Β @_@

It's a little hard not to when you're now furry, can fly, and have a fungus manipulating your brain.
