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
