Half-Malboros malboros are not generally social beings, for good reason. Be it their scary appearance, terrible smell, lack of charisma, or dull intellect, they seem more monstrous than anything. As such half-malboros are usually concerned with only their base needs.. hunger, thirst... with little care beyond this.

Half-Malboros malboros are born from a terrible process. Generally new malboros are born when malboro spores burrow into a warm dead body and grow from there. However the spores may burrow in early to a body which has shut down but not completely died. On the brink, the spores populate the body and revitalize it with new mind, purpose, and motion.

Half-Malboros malboros are usually medium, but rarely a gnome or half-ling halfling becomes converted, resulting in a small half-malboro. These half-malboros have an additional -2 Str, +2 Dex, and -10 ft. land speed applied.

Half-Malboros malboros like places of filth most of all. A warm, wet, stinky cesspool fits right at home with them, as well as covers their own stench in something more powerful.

Half-Malboros malboros have no religious tradition, but those that do often find home with gods of nature, due to their plant-based existence.

Half-Malboros malboros speak Common and Malboro, a language of bubbles, burps, grunts, and various foul oders.
