Aight time to cement being the weird low tier monsters guy for DnD
Shrieker:
Camouflage (While not moving they look like regular fungus) - Monster Manual 5e
Possibly adaption due to being immune to Violet Fungus's poison (Monster Manual 3.5e Page 112), I'm inclined to say this due to them always teaming up to get prey/food plus there's no mention of resistance to any other types of poison
Possibly resistance to statues effect inducement and straight up resistance to fear manipulation as shown here (Monster Manual 5e)
I say possibly for statues effect inducement because well they have blind sense so it could be that they just see via other means then sight and hearing, also in theory I suppose they could also have resistance to social influence because they're basically mindless but that would apply to many DnD creatures so eh on adding that
Violet Fungus:
Camouflage (While not moving, same as Shrieker) - Monster Manual 5e
I'm not really sure what causing necrotic damage (Monster Manual 5e) would count as, maybe death manipulation but either way it should be noted
Same resistances as Shriekers - Monster Manual 5e
Hook Horror:
Stealth Mastery (Is skilled in stealth and employs it as a tactic) - Monster Manual II Page 126
Resistance to poison due to being able to eat Violent Fungus with no problem (Dragon Magazine Issue 131 Page 43) and are said to immune to fungus (Dragon Magazine Issue 131 Page 43) so maybe also fungus manipulation resistance
It should be noted on the page that they are smart enough to farm fungus - Dragon Magazine Issue 131 Page 43
They have a weakness to light and are afraid of fire and loud sounds - Monster Manual II Page 127 and Dragon Magazine Issue 131 Page 43
Bulette:
Should have natural weaponry due its bite - Probably all Monster Manuals it ever appeared in
