**Dooom Shroom** is a major character from 100 gecs lore. Subservient to Gorgesus, Dooom Shroom tends to get the short end of the stick when it comes to dealing with his rival, Rankus the Rat.

## History

### ringtone (remix) Lyric Video

Dooom Shroom has a brief cameo near the beginning of ringtone (remix)'s lyric video, as a silhouette of his artwork from the cover of Tree of Clues along with a handful of other characters.

### Lore

Dooom Shroom has a short, but significant role in the plot of the lore tale included with Tree of Clues.

When Rankus threatens to steal the starlight sap, Gorgesus orders Dooom Shroom to capture him and prevent him from doing so. Dooom Shroom doesn't hesitate to run after Rankus, only for the rat to quickly use his hammer to crack Dooom Shroom's head open, killing him. Dooom Shroom's brain matter leaks into the roots of the twilight fir, causing it to grow, which in turn releases Cold Steel and begins to awaken the tree's soul.

Dooom Shroom has a much larger role in the music video for hand crushed by a mallet (remix), which portrays an alternate tale than the main lore.

Dooom Shroom has amassed a small collection of keys, until he finds a twinkling magic key that sparks his interest. While he is distracted inspecting the key, Rankus sneaks up on him and snatches the key right out of his hand. Outraged, Dooom Shroom immediately gives chase, jumping down a well to follow him. Dooom Shroom briefly looses track of Rankus, however his Flute Hat picks up Rankus' scent, putting him back on the trail in an enchanted forest.

Dooom Shroom desperately chases after the rat, but just when he thinks he has Rankus in his clutches, he realises too late that it was all a trap. Rankus seals Dooom Shroom's soul within an hourglass, where he is endlessly tormented. He desperately breaks an arm free of the hourglass and reaches out to grab the key, but Rankus had thrown it into a boiling pot of starlight sap, which burns the flesh clean off of his arm.

## Characteristics

### Personality

Dooom Shroom has a hot temper, though he doesn't seem to be actively malicious, only attacking others as revenge or for defense. He isn't unintelligent, though he tends to fail at what he does due to Rankus' meddling or just plain bad luck.

### Physical Appearance

Dooom Shroom is a hunched, wrinkled, humanoid creature with a mushroom for a head. He has light beige skin, glowing white eyes and matted white hair. The cap of his mushroom is usually red with white spots, though it does randomly change to blue or green at certain points. He has his magic Flute Hat perched atop his head and wears a loincloth, a small brown messenger bag and thick gold chains around his neck and wrapped around his right leg. He wears knee-high brown boots, and his nails are painted black.

### Abilities

Dooom Shroom's most notable ability is the use of his Flute Hat, which was gifted to him by Gorgesus. The hat, while being able to make music as its name suggests, is alive and has a face on the front. It can use its nose to track scents, which Dooom Shroom uses to track down Rankus in the hand crushed by a mallet (remix) music video.
