Description
Glowcap mushrooms were popular among people traveling through the unwelcoming deep cavers of Underdark, providing them with much needed illumination and pleasant-tasting food. Glowcaps' emitted cold flickering radiance.

Availability
Even though glowcaps grew only in the Underdark, they were a trade commodity. Merchants from the Underdark traded wines and glowcap mushrooms for Calishite silks, pitted dates, and metal-works of good quality. This trade was especially lucrative among surface expatriates from Underdark.
