Despite its looks, the mycelial felis has nothing in common with the winged cat. The mushroom living inside the felis has adapted to the environment and taken the form of wings, attempting to blend in with the winged cats. What passes as wings at first glance is actually the mushroom growing out of the felis' body. The cat can move the wing-like mushroom appendages, gliding for short distances, but ultimately, it cannot fly. Although silent as any other feline, the glowing mushroom gives away the mycelial felis, making it hard for the felis to hunt in the dark. If the cat has a beautiful brown coat when the sun is up, it will turn completely black once night time comes, the mushroom's bioluminescent spores glowing bright green. These spores are released when the felis teleports and remain airborne for several hours enticing other creatures with the glowing patterns they create in the air.
Recently discovered, the mycelial felis has divided people into two sides. One side - the pragmatic people who study creatures - says the felis is a complex being with feelings and a wide range of personalities, carrying a parasite inside its body. The other side - comprised mainly of mushroom fanatics - claims the cat is merely a vessel for a brilliant mushroom. While both ideas have some similarities, people will argue relentlessly about what a mycelial felis is or isn't. Capable of teleportation and more interested in exploration than listening to people debate its nature, the mycelial felis care only about warmth and treats. It seeks human companionship during the daytime, acting like a simple cat, happy to receive pets and scratches behind its ears, and its behavior changes entirely once the sun sets, turning wild and energetic, eager to explore. People believe the parasitic mushroom has more control over the cat at night than during daytime, but more study is needed before such a conclusion can be reached.
