Pimbas are a strange species of humanoid toadstools.  They are well known for their magic colleges held deep in the Underdark.
            Pimbas stand only three feet tall at the tallest.  Their heads are topped with a large mushroom cap that makes up a large portion of their bodies and are attached to their bodies even though they are called “caps.”  Their heads look as though they are wearing a large wide-brimmed oriental hat.  Their skin is pale-caucasian, but their mushroom caps are white with random red circles.  Their hands are small with stubby fingers, but they have little trouble manipulating objects.  The have little to no facial hair until they reach old age, then females have wisps of white hair that grow at the point where their heads meet their mushroom caps while old men grow long beards.  Pimbas tend to simple clothing, but only teachers at their colleges are allowed to wear robes.  Their voices are high-pitched and child-like.
           Pimbas tend to speak many languages.  Among their common tongues are Pimtala (their own language), Common, Undercommon, Dwarf, Gnome, and sometimes Drow.

Combat:
Pimbas are peaceful people that disdain violence, but living in the Underdark makes it extremely difficult to live without having to succumb to violence for the sake of survival.  Pimba communities are defended mostly by the spell-casters from the college, but non-spellcasters will use daggers, and rarely short swords, to defend themselves if called upon.

Groggy Spores: If a pimba is struck by force, be it by sword, fist, or force-based spells (like magic-missile), they release a cloud of spores into the air that reach in a 5ft radius.  If these spores are breathed in by any non-pimba, they force the creature to make a Fort save (DC 11) or become sleepy and sluggish imposing a –2 penalty to hit and dropping movement rates by 5ft per round.  The effects of these spores are not cumulative, and last 1d4 rounds, but once the effects pass the creature is instantly susceptible to another dose.  

Light Sensitivity: Pimba are not used to bright lights being from the Underdark.  They can function normally in light no brighter than than of a large fireplace, but in light as bright as sunlight, they suffer a –2 penalty to attack rolls and skill checks that require sight.

Skills: +2 racial bonus to Concentration and Move Silently checks

Society:
Pimba society is one that learning and knowledge is more important than anything else.  A large college devoted to not only the magic arts, but also to more pratical knowledge like math and history and even the aestetic arts dominates their settlements.  A Dean that is commonly a 6th level or higher wizard governs these colleges.  
           Pimbas live in houses built from the caverns in which they live with their families.  Their homes are usually shaped like giant mushrooms.  They eat funguses and mosses cultivated in large fungal farms, but can also eat meat, though they don't really enjoy the taste.  

Characters:
Pimbas are commonly of the wizard class, though sorcerers and bards are common as well.  Each community tends to have a cleric devoted to Boccob, though few follow the god since pimba are not overly religious.  Pimba from the more combat-oriented classes are nearly unheard of.
