The White Mushroom is a mushroom-shaped Heartless from Kingdom Hearts, and Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. It is one of the few friendly Heartless that never fights.
The White Mushroom is a friendly Heartless that loves magic shows and is also fond of the game of Charades. If Sora casts whatever spell they indicate three times, then he will be rewarded with a shower of MP Orbs and rare items. Certain items are obtained depending on the spell used. If the spell used is the same one all three times, he will be rewarded with various "Arts" items. If the White Mushroom is attacked or an incorrect spell is cast, then it will vanish and leave nothing.
By obtaining all of the special items dropped by White Mushrooms, Merlin will give Donald Duck the Dream Rod.

Hints
Stuck on finding Bright Shards but no Green Requiem to be found? White mushrooms are the only other Heartless that drop this rare shard, necessary to make Ultima Weapon. Just cast Cure as your third spell on the White Mushroom and there's a 100% chance it'll drop a Bright Shard.
Trivia
The White Mushroom Heartless, along with the Rare Truffle and Black Fungus Heartless, resembles the Fantasia mushrooms.
