Description

The old man's beard lichen is a type of bushy or shrubby lichen that grows on a host tree bark or branches, where it trails long tassels that give it a stringy, beard-like appearance. As a lichen, it actually not a single organism, but rather fungi and algae living together in symbiosis.

Lore

Bearded lichen is a real world plant. There currently is no Elanthian specific lore associated with it.

Appearances

The old man's beard lichen only grows in Naidem. It can most easily be foraged in the Graveyard Temporalis and Ember Ridge Orchard.
