Biography
One day in his youth, while on a stroll through an autumn forest, Terentia found a peaceful glade containing a circle of curious looking mushrooms. At home, he had studied mushrooms of different kinds to the point where he was comfortable in identifying which ones were edible and which ones were poisonous, but he had not once seen this exact species in one of his books. The obvious choice would have been for Terentia to either leave the mushrooms or to pick them and take them to his local mycologist. Terentia knew about the dangers of eating unidentified mushrooms, but something about these joyful little caps seemed very appealing to him. They called to him. Frantically, Terentia began devouring the mushroom circle. One by one, the mushrooms were eaten until Terentia had cleared the entire circle. He was exhausted. When he stood up, just having swallowed the last piece of mushroom stem, the vile taste hit Terentia. It felt as if though his mouth was filled with some sort of sour and wet dirt, his tongue numb from the sensory overload. The seriousness of the situation started to down upon him when he felt the stomach aches. It was unbearable. After laying down - the only thing Terentias was capable of - his field of view strangly shifted and he could begin to see a wave of distorition coming towards him in the distance. He was frightened and in awe at what he saw, but when the wave finally came pouring over Terentia a sense of immense relief filled his body. He fell asleep.
