Myconid, from MM2, aren't given a suggest class. But Myconid Average Workers look like they would be a valid choice for an unconventional PC race, or NPC with class. They have average abilities scores and a playable size. The only problems I see are how they communicate, since the text doesn't specifically say they have mouths... or ears... and can't use the Rapport spore until they reach Guard. So... Can they hear? Maybe they'd have to take a psionic class.

Advice on how to do this, please!

I experienced a myconid NPC once. He could hear but not speak. He mostly grunted and pointed.
The D&D wiki suggests (http://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Myconids_%283.5e_Race%29)that myconid PCs speak Common and Sylvan.

I presume, since it isn't otherwise specified, that they have all the normally assumed senses. They just can't speak.

For myconid PCs, Drow Sign Language is where it's at.

They also have a random number of fingers... Haha. Roll 1d10 for each hand :smallbiggrin:
