* {{favilink|fickle gill}} has no real benefits compared to other fungal infections.

Fungi spawn in zones that are randomly generated with a ''fungus patch'', ''fungus grove'', or ''fungus forest'' postfix. This is a somewhat uncommon occurrence but fungi can be found in just about any zone that the player enters. It is common for multiple connected zones to each be populated with fungi. Fungal zones have a particularly recognizable type of blue grass that usually gives them away upon entry. They are also filled with {{favilink|dandy cap|plural}} and {{favilink|spotted shagspook}}, which, though harmless themselves, can be dangerous for the way that they hide nearby brooding puffs. A player who is trying to avoid getting a fungal infection should tread carefully through a fungal zone, making sure not to walk around tight corners or enter unknown nooks where brooding puffs may lie in wait. | Fungi spawn in [[World Map#Zones|zones]] that are randomly generated with a ''fungus patch'', ''fungus grove'', or ''fungus forest'' postfix.

=== Obtaining Specific Infections === | |||
In some cases, a player may wish to obtain specific infections, and perhaps even to infect specific body parts. Doing so is possible, but requires some preparation and patience. | |||
First, make note in your journal of any fungal zone that you find. This allows you to easily return to the area later when you're ready to get started. You'll typically encounter a few fungal zones during normal gameplay, but you can also simply wander around on surface zones to try and find one. Second, obtain a copy of the [[Corpus Choliys]], which contains the randomly generated recipe for a fungal cure in your world. It may also be a good idea to gather the cure ingredients ahead of time - particularly if the cure requires a rare corpse. | |||
When you're ready to infect yourself: | |||
# Enter a fungus zone that is home to {{favilink|brooding jadepuff|brooding puffs}}. | |||
# Become infected by entering the puff's spores. <u>'''Make sure to note the color'''</u> of the puff and its spores (both will be the same color). | |||
# After confirming that you've gained the itchy skin effect, wait 2-3 days nearby, and see what infection you get. | |||
# If you got a different infection than you wanted, cure the infection and try again with a different-colored brooding puff. Repeat this process until you find the infection(s) you are looking for. | |||
# To get infections on specific body parts, you can simply infect your entire body with the type of infection you desire, and then cure each body part that you '''don't''' want the infection to remain on. | |||

{{qud quote|The following is a record of known afflictions, their symptoms and cures, which I have compiled from the logs and personal notes I authored during the course of my forty-year tenure as physician and apothecary to the farmstead of Kardis.

The [[Corpus Choliys]] contains the cure to many known diseases and infections in Qud, including fungal infections. You should find the book in game and read it to learn what is required of you to cure a fungal disease. The cure recipe will be randomized but will always have the same general structure: | |||
* To initiate the cure, the player must eat the raw corpse of a worm-like creature. The corpse required could be any of the following. Non-[[carnivorous]] creatures will need to wait until they are [[Hunger|famished]] before they will be able to stomach the thought of eating the raw corpse. | |||
