A treatise on mushrooms found in Cyrodiil

Bog Beacon Asco Cap: Found mostly south of Leyawiin, it restores magicka and creates a magical shield. Its negative effects make you atrocius during conversation.

Cairn Bolete Cap: A common cave-dwelling fungus, it will almost always be found in subterranean caverns (not far from Wisp Stalks). Alchemical uses include a resistance to paralysis and restore health. While negative effects include a loss of concentration and a slight electrical shock if not heated properly.

Cinnabar Polypore Red Cap: Both Cinnabar Polypore Red Caps and Cinnabar Polypore Yellow Caps come from Cinnabar Polypores; you can only tell which one you are going to harvest from the color of the mushroom, not from its name. Cinnabar Polypore is found all along the Gold Road between Skingrad and Kvatch. Alchemical uses include a magical shield and a restorative of agility. Negatives include atrocius personality and a loss of endurance

Cinnabar Polypore Yellow Cap: (see above)

Clouded Funnel Cap: A common, high altitude mushroom, found around Pale Pass, near Bruma. Alchemical uses are great for scholars who need to concentrate on work as it replenishes the mind. It may lower your connection to magicka or you may find yourself lacking physical endurance.

Dryad Saddle Polypore Cap: The plant name is actually "Dryad's Saddle Polypore"; these plants are somewhat rare, but can be found growing south of Chorrol, and also around Cheydinhal. They are known to give good luck at the cost of running a bit more slowly.

Elf Cup Cap: Elf Cup plants are rather common in the Skingrad area; they are great for Cure Disease potions.

Emetic Russula Cap: Perhaps a cousin of the common bog mushroom of native Morrowind or a similar name, this mushroom has planted its roots between Bravil and Skingrad. It finds alchemical purposes as a restorative to agility.

Fly Amanita Cap: Fly Amanita plants are extremely common in and around most cities. The mushrooms come in several sizes, all of which yield Fly Amanita Caps with the same harvest probability. It finds common uses in Restore Health potions.

Green Stain Cup Cap: Green Stain Cup plants are scattered throughout Cyrodiil, but there are concentrated patches in the woods east of Leyawiin. The are great for potions of respite.

Green Stain Shelf Cap: These very rare plants seem to have an affinity to magic, growing in the Arcane University gardens and around Runestones. They are protected by the Mages Guild as an endangered species, but they are great sources of good luck.

Steel-Blue Entoloma Cap: Steel-Blue Entoloma plants are common in most of central Cyrodiil, in the Great Forest, Chorrol and Cheydinhal. Some as far south as Leyawiin. They have very few alchemical uses besides resisting frost.

Summer Bolete Cap: Summer Bolete plants are most common in the southern regions, around Bravil and Leyawiin. Also seen in the Great Forest, and around Cheydinhal. Uses include a magical shield and restorative of agility.

Tinder Polypore Cap: Tinder Polypore plants grow mostly in colder, northern regions, around Bruma and Cheydinhal. Pale Pass has a good supply. Just like clouded funnel caps, but with better alchemical uses, like Invisibility and resistance to disease.

Wisp Stalk Caps: Wisp Stalks are mostly found in dark caves and mines, just like the Cairn Bolete Cap. Alchemical uses include making the recipient faster, at a loss of their own health.
