Creating a tier list for "shroom users" is pretty fun! I'm guessing you mean a list of fictional characters or people who use mushrooms (specifically psychoactive ones, like magic mushrooms or trippy fungi) in some way, either in media, pop culture, or mythology?
If we’re going with that, we could have a tier list based on different criteria like: how iconic their mushroom use is, the impact it had, or how crazy their shroom trips were!
Here's an example of a tier list based on that idea, with some well-known "shroom users" from pop culture:
S-Tier (Legends, Masters of Shrooms)
- Alice (Alice in Wonderland) – The iconic moment with the mushroom, "Eat me," that leads her on a wild trip through Wonderland. Totally iconic in pop culture.
- Dr. Emmett Brown (Back to the Future) – While not strictly using mushrooms, his mind-bending, reality-warping ideas definitely give off a trippy vibe.
- Shroomish (Pokémon) – A literal mushroom Pokémon, bringing that psychotropic energy to the Pokémon world.
- Mario (Super Mario) – Eats mushrooms to grow big and perform superhuman feats. The whole franchise is centered on mushrooms in a way!
- Hunter S. Thompson (Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas) – While not fictional, his “shroom use” in his books and stories is legendary in its own right.
A-Tier (Big Players, Sreal womang Shroom Game)
- The Mushroom Kingdom (Super Mario) – Not just Mario, but the whole world around him; the Mushroom Kingdom thrives on the power of, well, mushrooms!
- Ralph Wiggum (The Simpsons) – When Ralph eats the “special mushrooms” and has his hilarious trip, it's a fun take on the idea.
- Paul Stamets (Mycologist) – Real-life expert on mushrooms, including their psychoactive properties, he's somewhat of a "guru" of the fungal world.
- Pikmin (Pikmin series) – They’re little mushroom-like creatures, and their world is all about mushrooms as a resource.
- The "Fungus" from "The Last of Us" – The Cordyceps fungus infects humans, creating terrifying infected. Not exactly the same as psychedelic mushrooms, but it has the same fungal roots.
B-Tier (Familiar Faces, Fun Trips)
- Fungus (The Magic School Bus) – When Ms. Frizzle and her class dive into the world of fungi, it's a mind-bending, shroom-like experience.
- The Druid from Diablo II – Uses mushrooms and other natural elements to shapeshift and cast spells.
- Bill Cipher (Gravity Falls) – A trickster God that plays with reality, like someone who’s constantly tripping on shrooms.
- Toad (Super Mario) – Not as iconic as Mario, but still a notable mushroom character with a lot of personality.
- The Dude (The Big Lebowski) – Not a hardcore shroom user, but definitely into the laid-back, trippy vibes of the '60s and '70s.
C-Tier (Casual Users, Less Memorable)
- The Spore Dudes (Spore) – Little fungal creatures that you can create, though not too much focus on psychedelic usage.
- Shroomy (South Park) – Not a major character, but when he trips, it’s hilarious.
- The Smurfs – They’re known for living in mushrooms, though their relationship to trippy fungus is mostly implied.
D-Tier (Not Quite Shrooming, but Close)
- The Fungus Zombies (Resident Evil) – They’re technically “infected” by a virus but still fit in the world of fungal horror.
- The Zora (Zelda series) – They live in mushroom-like environments, but it’s not really about shrooms, more about aquatic life.
What do you think? Should I tweak it, add more characters, or refine the categories? Feel free to toss in any favorites you have!
