	One of the main characteristics of the fungus is its ability to produce phoron, in a process known as '''phorogenesis'''. How it occurs is that it transforms available gases from the atmosphere, such as oxygen, and changes them to small amounts of phoron. As the quantities are minuscule, it rarely if ever creates enough of the substance to be released into the air. However, the phoron produced in this process is usually referred to as ‘tainted,’ as it contains proteins of the fungus. A recent study conducted amidst the [[KING OF THE WORLD\|phoron crisis]] proved that phoron produced by k’ois is contaminated even at the subatomic level, with potential spores stemming from the molecule.

As k’ois are hard to remove, it requires exhaustive surgery and lengthy medical treatment to remove all remnants.		'''Mycosis''' is one of the greater dangers of k’ois.

Their phylogenetic reconstruction has been largely ignored until recent years, as the Hives have taken an interest in the wildlife of their home planet.

The most prominent hypothesis is that this event was not so much triggered by environmental changes, but rather by a highly competitive and fragile ecosystem. As the food chain became unsustainable, the fewer surviving species of fungi became more resilient, albeit took a peculiar evolutionary strategy. Their growth is said to have become slower and species such as k’ois were limited to a smaller radius, almost as if hiding inside the cracks of the cave walls.
