Where the wild flowers whistle...

Whistle Bud Plantation Farm (#19/30, #262/365)

This is a much larger version of the Whistle Bud Cultivation Chamber, which has been carved out of the wilderness of the fungal savannah by a group of Fiends. They are growing and harvesting Whistle Buds to brew Potions of Noise, which are essential items of defense in the arsenal of any demonic planar inhabitant who ranks a little lower on the foodchain. The Fiends are led by Thrax Ferox (hirsute, sullen), a Lesser Fire Demon, who spends too much of the profits on brewing Shroomshine Grog and growing hallucinogenic fungi 'on the side'. Most Fiends are equipped with little more than sickles and trowels, but there is an overseer class, all armed with flintlock rifles, and all to eager to use them on anyone 'attacking' the Plantation.

One of the reasons for their aggressiveness lurks nearby in a hidden glade. An ancient Wood Demon, Nepenthe of the Amber Gourd (diseased, albino), has gathered several clans of Fungoids into a Free Fungus Front (and other plants), and are constantly conducting infiltration missions against the Plantation, attempting to rescue as many Whistle Buds as they can, from their grisly fate at the end of a pestle and mortar. Nepenthe is currently on the lookout for interested allies to raid the plantation, destroy it once and for all, and free all the Whistle Buds from captivity.
