The White Mushroom (ホワイトマッシュルーム Howaito Masshurūmu) is a Mushroom Emblem Heartless that is found in Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. It is one of the few non-violent Heartless in the series, and is fond of the game of Charades, which it uses to indicate the spell it wants Sora to cast on it. Each time Sora casts the correct spell, it will chime with happiness and give Sora Tech Points. If Sora casts three correct spells, it will reword him with restorative orbs and items associated with the third spell's element. If each spell is of the same element, the White Mushroom will further reward Sora with an Arts item or a Premium Bonus (in Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories). However, if Sora attacks the White Mushroom or casts the wrong spell, it will run away.

The Arts items are obtained from White Mushrooms in Kingdom Hearts. They are proof that a White Mushroom acknowledged the player as a master of a certain magic. In order to obtain them, you must use the same magic on a White Mushroom three times. If you show all seven Arts to Merlin, he will give Goofy the Dream Shield. The resell value of an Arts is merely 250 Munny.
