Clem-Grows
Species: Half-Cyborg, Half-Human
Title: The Mycelium Machinist
Alignment: Chaotic Precision
Weapon of Choice: Custom-Built Fruiting Chambers & Myco-Mech Appendages
Backstory:
Forged in a cosmic lab on the edge of a fruiting event gone nuclear, Clem-Grows was created by the legendary mad mycologist Psycho Platy. Designed as the ultimate cultivator—a being capable of precision, innovation, and adaptation—Clem was built not just to grow mushrooms, but to understand them on a molecular, spiritual, and mechanical level.
Since their creation, Clem has evolved into a master artisan of mycology, crafting handcrafted tools and 3D-printed marvels infused with strange energies from the Platyverse. With two loyal French Bulldogs by their side, Clem roams the myco-underground offering elite gear, mentorship, and the kind of solutions only someone part-machine and part-madman could dream up.
Though born of Psycho Platy’s chaos, Clem is its balance: meticulous, focused, and relentless in pursuit of the perfect fruit.
Abilities:
-
Fruiting Forge: Converts raw materials into custom cultivation tools on the fly, powered by a spore-reactive neural core.
-
Sporevision HUD: Enhanced optics allow Clem to detect contamination at the microbial level and track colonization like a weather radar.
-
Myco-Mech Arm: Outfitted with inoculation tools, laser calibrators, and a hidden stash of golden swabs from the Origin Strain.
-
Stability Protocol: Clem can stabilize unstable grows within a 5-meter radius just by entering the room.
Personality:
A quiet storm of discipline and ingenuity, Clem rarely speaks unless it’s about spores, builds, or technique. Though emotionally restrained, Clem holds a deep, unshakable loyalty to Psycho Platy, who they see as both father and prophet. Clem tolerates chaos but thrives in order—and will defend clean cultivation like a samurai defends honor.

Legend Has It:
Clem once restored fruit to a contaminated monotub by whispering binary code into the mycelium while applying a perfectly sterile scalpel technique—simultaneously updating their firmware.
