Order of the Fung

The Order of the Fung is an organism or group of organisms that are self germinated from Fung spores, and who guard the Fung. (This is as opposed to germinated like Jell-A was.) Jell-A observes that they aren't called on to defend the Fung with particular regularity because the Fung's other defenses are also very successful.

The kind of threat the Fung needs to protect itself from is outside attempts at interference or exploitation, like the Expedition of scientists. The Fung lives in the bowels of an abandoned shopping mall, and is not difficult to reach.
