The toxic awakened death worm, is a vile nasty creature native to the East Anglian Stinkfens. This poor worm was mutated and corrupted by the toxic sludge left behind in the wake of the Black Tide.
While most sane and reasonable people view this creature with aversion and disgust, there are follows of the toxic worm totem, both shaman and cultists. These twisted people work to create an even more hostile and toxic environment for the worms to live and thrive in.
The death worm is covered in a highly toxic mucus that acts as a potent neurotoxin. While most specimen are under a half meter in length, the neurotoxin from these is dangerous to children, the elderly and those with weakened immune systems. Larger specimen can kill a fully grown healthy man. The largest specimen recorded was an impressive 50 meters in length and the potency of it's toxin is believed to be capable of killing larger marine animals.
Surrounding the death worm's mouth are long sticky tendrils used to capture and pull in prey. This sticky slime has a pungent odor reminiscent of rusting iron or sewage.
Some of the toxic shaman have been known to abduct people with the goal of investing a worm spirit into the human metahuman host. Not unlike an insect spirit would. Fortunately none have been successful so far. At least one is known to have tried to breed a human worm hybrid in captivity again without success.
The experimental breeding process attempted by laying a male or female worm against the opposite human metahuman victim.
