"It has claws; it has a fierce double beak; but just now it seems disinclined to use them."
Blemmigans are sentient mushrooms with a taste for flesh; they thrive in Bugsby's Marshes and other swampy locations around the Neath.
Walking Mushrooms
Blemmigans are the spores of the Uttershroom, located in Myceligaea, far across the Unterzee. They're creatures of letters, and blossom when they can exercise their liking for the written word. Fallen Londoners may encounter Blemmigan Pedants or even, with exceptional luck, find a blemmigan that is actually willing to be one's secretary. When voyaging around the Zee, one may find a blemmigan colony on the shores of an island.
During theFeast of the Exceptional Rose 1893, a collection of poems took literary circles – and the Ministry of Public Decency – by storm and gave birth to a new school. The Mycologene School is wholly dedicated to maintaining the Elusive Poet's legacy by emulating their Illicit Volumes of Unexpectedly Racy Fungal-Themed Poetry.

"In a glass case, a stuffed Postal Rat is locked in mortal combat with a preserved blemmigan."
The Uttershroom
"Climb the fungal-fibre ladders to its summit. Shaggy, suspicious villagers scratch a living here, amidst endless clouds of spores and scurrying mobs of plant-animal hybrids. None of them ever leave. "Monsters," one explains darkly. "Zee full of monsters."
The Uttershroom is a giant mushroom in the Unterzee, specifically in the region of Myceligaea.
There is little animal life here, though fungi thrive. The few people who live here are addicted to prisoner's honey and are too scared of zee-monsters to leave. These inhabitants are related to the people of the Chelonate, who are famed monster hunters; these poor souls didn't want to hunt like their brethren, so they left to live here.
The Uttershroom is very likely the original home of the blemmigans. Whether it is or not, they do live here.
