Illugus
"Though eerily quiet, they are constantly sending and receiving spore signals with nearby mycelia. As a result they have uncanny environmental awareness." —Beastiepedia
Illugus is a Beastie. They metamorph from Sprecko at Miconia Grove.
They and their fellow metamorphs of Sprecko have an Extinct form, Shloom, which they can achieve by communing with three mushroom colonies.
Biology
Illugus is a bipedal, reptilian Beastie. They have greyish-purple skin with black patches on their hands, toes, and topside of their tail; the black on their hands resembles gloves. They have a fluffy patch of white on their chest, and are wearing what resembles a pale green shawl around their neck and body. They have a large mushroom cap on their head that transitions from white at the top to greyish-purple in the middle to black at the bottom, and it curls up at the bottom edges, making it resemble a hat. Their eyes have irises that match the color of the berries of the Sprecko they metamorphed from, and they are crescent-shaped at the bottom, giving them a crafty and smug expression. They have a long, tapering tail with a large lozenge-shaped tip; there are three holes in the tip that have an inky black substance dripping out of them.
In Illugus's Raremorph form, they become completely monochrome except for their irises; their skin becomes fully grey, the black patches become darker, and their shawl becomes black instead of green.

Trivia
- Illugus's internal name is "shroom_m". It also has an old internal name, "tree_m", which may imply a different design theme.
- Some of this original "tree" concept can be seen in the concept art for its Extinct form.
Origin
Illugus is based on a gecko. Their fungal features are based on Coprinus mushrooms, also known as "ink caps." These mushrooms dissolve themselves to release their spores, causing them to drip an inky black liquid in the process.
Illugus's tendency to be eerily quiet, combined with their crafty expression and features that resemble a shawl and gloves, somewhat give them the appearance of a medieval thief.
Name origin
Illugus may be a combination of illusive and fungus.
