Mister Mushroom

"Caps and shells may fall to dust, But Mr Mushroom readjusts..."

- Mister Mushroom

Mister Mushroom is a talking mushroom NPC found throughout Hallownest after all three Dreamers have been killed. His babbles can be heard from a distance, guiding the Knight to his location. He is also referred to as the Herald or Master Herald.

In-game events Finding him in all seven locations and ending the game rewards the Passing of the Age achievement and a secret cutscene after beating the game.

To understand what he says, the Spore Shroom Charm must be equipped, otherwise, he speaks gibberish and does not move to the next location. However, his Dream Nail dialogue is not gibberish, even without Spore Shroom.

Throughout his dialogue, it is apparent that Mister Mushroom does not acknowledge the Knight and instead seems to be talking to someone else or talking to himself. In the final encounter, he finally acknowledges the presence of the Knight and realizes they have been following him throughout his travels.

Riddle Tablet The Riddle Tablet is a glowing glyph in a secret room at the bottom right corner of Kingdom's Edge. The hidden opening leading to it is on the right side of one of the vertical shafts above the giant geo deposit in the special room with said deposit. When it is read with the Spore Shroom Charm equipped, the tablet reveals a poem, which gives hints to the locations where Mister Mushroom can be found:

We speak the path of the Master Herald, he who would signal an Age's end.
 * 1) Spawn of self, their minds unite, (Fungal Wastes)
 * 2) Aside the source of acid blight, (Kingdom's Edge, near Isma's Grove)
 * 3) Aglow in darkest, winding depths, (Deepnest, near Galien)
 * 4) Winds all howl above fossilstone steps, (Howling Cliffs, in Mato's hut)
 * 5) Monarchflys in air set still, (Ancient Basin, near the Monarch Wings location)
 * 6) To Root's domain and snail once shrill, (Fog Canyon, near Overgrown Mound)
 * 7) Path of Wyrm, at new lands entered, (King's Pass)
 * 8) There journeys end. The kingdom ventured.

Locations He can be found in 7 different locations. Each one must be visited in the order described on the Riddle Tablet in order for him to progress to the next location.

Achievements

Trivia
 * Mister Mushroom is one of the few NPCs who can be "hit" with the Nail without taking damage.
 * Mister Mushroom was originally created to fill up the empty room where Cornifer used to be in the Fungal Wastes.
 * Mister Mushroom's first dialogue is a likely reference to Team Cherry's entry 'Hungry Knight' for the Ludum Dare Game Jam 27, in which they first used the character that became the Knight. In the game, the player has to keep feeding on cherries dropped by enemies and kill three bosses (whose icons looks similar to Monomon's) to resurrect a friend.


 * Once Mister Mushroom leaves after listening to him, the spot he used to be at can still be nail-bounced on and the Dream Nail can still be used which activates his Dream Nail dialogue. This works in every area he appears except for King's Pass until leaving the room and re-entering.
 * The Passing of the Age achievement is the only one in the game without a monochrome colour palette, instead featuring Mister Mushroom in full-colour.
