This port became available in the [[Road Map#Emerald|Emerald]] release. ==Port description== The queenly core of this spore-haunted sea. ==Port interactions== ===[[File:SS Interactions The Uttershroom.png|42px]] The Uttershroom=== ====Location description==== Climb the fungal-fibre ladders to its summit. Shaggy, suspicious villagers scratch a living here, amidst endless clouds of spores and scurrying mobs of plant-animal hybrids. None of them ever leave. "Monsters," one explains darkly. "Zee full of monsters." ====Interactions==== {| class="ss-table" style="width:100%;" !style="width:10%;"|Actions !style="width:16%;"|Requirements !style="width:16%;"|Effects !style="width:10%;"|Notes |- | <span style='color:white'>'''Visit the village'''</span> Hospitable?

Today, the air is soupy-thick. They coat your hair. They clog your throat. They gather like sleep in the corners of your eyes. Conversation with the shroomers is impossibly hard. You return to the ship, where you find a tiny purple mushroom growing already in your ear... <ul>[[File:SS skullsmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:red;">+1</span> x [[Terror]]<p></p> [[File:SS scaryeyesmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+1</span> x [[Tale of Terror!!]]<p></p> [[File:SS gamekeeper_cottagesmall.png|23px]] [[That's all for now]]<p></p></ul> | |- | <span style='color:white'>'''Visit the village'''</span> Hospitable?

("Monsters!") Today, they're telling the story of how they came here. It features a shipwreck; a 'rain of orange jewels'; 'the Mother's blessing'. There's a great deal about adversity and survival: and wistful hints about their homeland. Somewhere to the west... <ul>[[File:SS island2small.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+1</span> x [[Memory of Distant Shores]]<p></p> [[File:SS gamekeeper_cottagesmall.png|23px]] [[That's all for now]]<p></p></ul> | |- | <span style='color:white'>'''Consume the jarful of tether'''</span> The Severe Chemist would pay well for it - but can you put a price on love? | <p></p><ul>[[File:SS shipwrecksmall.png|23px]] [[Wrack: Aiding Research]] = 5 <span style='color:teal;'>[</span><span style='color:white;'>The Severe Chemist is waiting on the Uttershroom to collect his jarful of tether</span><span style='color:teal;'>]</span><p></p></ul> | <span style='color:white'>'''Tether melts in your mouth'''</span><br> The sand is warm between your toes. The waves haven't yet reached you, but they will soon. You shield your eyes from the sun as best you can, as you look out over the ocean. There! Those are her colours racing along the horizon - and up across the sky! You race along the shore, waving. Her whistle blows back at you. You'd swear you saw her stick her head out of the window and wave, before turning to the sunset. The waves lap your feet. You breathe deep the smell of salt, and wonder what new sun your lover will visit - and where she'll tattoo the memory. <ul>[[File:SS shipwrecksmall.png|23px]] [[Wrack: Aiding Research]] = <span style='color:teal;'>25</span> <span style='color:teal;'>[</span><span style='color:white;'>You tasted the tether, instead of delivering it to the Severe Chemist</span><span style='color:teal;'>]</span><p></p> [[File:SS enigmasmall.png|23px]] <span style='color:green;'>+1</span> x [[Searing Enigma]]<p></p> [[File:SS greeneyetcsmall.png|23px]] <span style='color:green;'>+1</span> x [[Wrack: Tether Tastings]]<p></p></ul> | |- | <span style='color:white'>'''Give the Severe Chemist the jarful of tether'''</span> Brought all the way from Wrack.

"Everyone wants honey." Life on the Uttershroom is unvarying and occasionally deadly poisonous. The shroomers are desperate for the diversion that prisoner's honey can bring, but vague about what they can pay in return. Supplies, though, at least. | <p></p><ul>[[File:SS barrelsmall.png|23px]] 1 x [[Firkin of Prisoner's Honey]]<p></p> [[File:SS blemmigansmall.png|23px]] [[Blemmigans Abroad]] β€ 0<p></p></ul> | <span style="color:white;">'''Blemmigans!'''</span> The shroomers pile up slabs of sweet mauve shroom-flesh. It's nourishing, although it does taste rather like muddy horse. They also generously throw in a blemmigan - a whistling, eyeless, mobile, fungus-thing. "Problems? Throw it in sea. No room? Throw it in sea." She shrugs. "Probably it swim. If not, plenty of room in sea." <ul>[[File:SS barrelsmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:red;">-1</span> x [[Firkin of Prisoner's Honey]]<p></p> [[File:SS blemmigansmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+1</span> x [[Docile Blemmigan]]<p></p> [[File:SS suppliessmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+1</span> x [[Supplies]]<p></p></ul> | |- | <span style='color:white'>'''Trade honey for supplies and blemmigan'''</span> "Ah!

Atop them, like an attentive dog on a plinth, a watchful blemmigan. "They want new places," the shroomer explains. "Too many blemmigan here. Plant them in six more new places. Mother will be pleased." <ul>[[File:SS barrelsmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:red;">-1</span> x [[Firkin of Prisoner's Honey]]<p></p> [[File:SS blemmigansmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+1</span> x [[Docile Blemmigan]]<p></p> [[File:SS suppliessmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+1</span> x [[Supplies]]<p></p></ul> | |- | <span style='color:white'>'''A gift'''</span> "Psst.

Wise. Nor should you. It's scorched and twisted the fungus-flesh that it lies on - its cosmogone glow has dyed the air around it. "Mother of Mushrooms is grateful," explains the shroomer. "You've cast her far. She gives you a jewel." <ul>[[File:SS blemmigansmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:red;">-7</span> x [[Blemmigans Abroad]]<p></p> [[File:SS cindersmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+1</span> x [[Ray-Drenched Cinder]]<p></p></ul> | This is used in [[The Neathbow]], the quest from [[The First Curator]] in [[Venderbight]]. |- | <span style='color:white'>'''Another gift'''</span> "Ho!

The Uttershroom provides. They are secretive, taciturn, incurious. Ships rarely visit. A gaggle of blemmigans - purple-tentacled fungus things - follows you down the rope to your ship, whistling cheerfully. Blemmigans are vicious little monsters, usually, but the ones on the Uttershroom seem friendly. If they trouble you, you could probably throw them overboard. <ul>[[File:SS uttershroom_portsmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+1</span> x [[A Port Report: the Uttershroom]]<p></p> [[File:SS blemmigansmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+2</span> to <span style="color:green;">+4</span> x [[Docile Blemmigan]]<p></p></ul> |- | rowspan="3" | <span style='color:white'>'''Search the shroom-top'''</span> Fibrous huts, spore-fogs, that endless damp purple smell.

Beneath, in an odd little pocket, lie bundles of ancient, mouldy cloth. Stygian Ivory, like the stuff the Chelonate sell, and something very like a Chelonate harpoon. Did the proud Chelonites come here once? Are they the ancestors of these sorry villagers? <ul>[[File:SS fistsmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+1</span> x [[Beginner's Luck]]<p></p> [[File:SS implicationsmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+1</span> x [[Extraordinary Implication]]<p></p> [[File:SS guisemalesmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+1</span> x [[Outlandish Artefact]]<p></p> [[File:SS unterzeesmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+5</span> x [[Stygian Ivory]]<p></p></ul> | rowspan="3" | |- | style="background: #002020;" align="center" |<span style="color:orange;">Rare event (50%)</span> |- | <span style="color:white;">'''Secret sweetness'''</span> There's something different about this patch of mushroom-rind. It's crumbly, friable... you dig into it, and a rich, apply smell emerges from beneath. You've found a pocket of different fungus-stuff - pale green and delicious. Your crew scoops it into buckets. Embedded in it are... fruit? Solacefruit! They grow in swamps, far from here. That's peculiar. <ul>[[File:SS fistsmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+1</span> x [[Beginner's Luck]]<p></p> [[File:SS implicationsmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+1</span> x [[Extraordinary Implication]]<p></p> [[File:SS cherriessmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+3</span> x [[Solacefruit]]<p></p> [[File:SS suppliessmall.png|23px]] <span style="color:green;">+5</span> x [[Supplies]]<p></p></ul> |- | <span style='color:white'>'''Experiment with your Strange Catch'''</span> A mist of spores rises in the distance.

Another hour, and the catch begins moving again. In the third hour, it starts rhyming.

The engine room is quiet. Your maps are exactly as you left them β not one is defaced, or crumpled into a ball. Finally, you spot the tip of a tendril poking out from under a pile of unwashed clothing. Your Blemmigan indicates that under no circumstance whatsoever will it be emerging. What could be so bad about the Uttershroom? Did the other mushrooms bully it? | |- |} ==Gallery== <gallery> SS Locations The Uttershroom.png|The Uttershroom </gallery> {{Navbox locations}} [[Category:Sunless Sea ports]] [[Category:Sunless Sea locations]]
