Search crowns look like a totem pole of 4 mouths topped with a red cap mushroom, the main body of varying orange and brown hues. Each mouth houses razor-sharp fangs. Standing a little over two feet tall, these fungi are normally easy to spot amongst other mushrooms in the area. – Imban

Digging up from the ground, search crowns are often targeted by the local wildlife as common mushrooms or fungi to dine on, however if the search crown is aware of any predators they make quick work of them with their lasers and seeds. Often grouped up in pairs or clusters/troops of up to 5, the search crown is also known to team up with bagnadranas and needle kisses.
