These taints could be used in fantasy setting or gammaworld really. Vegetal creatures, symbiotes plant gods, elfy curses could all call these. Will try to do a fungi version too but until then thus will probably be starting point). I'm interested in making a mutant class who get d8 hd and a few mutations per level which can be from any mutation lists I have done. Ive also considered treating mutations as a spell list which i will try as it was so good treating robot/cyborg bits as spell list.
Plant mutations might also be symbiotes or parasites and can still be separated from host.
