Fleshy, simple creatures that have long cylindrical tube-like bodies that are sometimes known to be parasitic that have no legs or appendages. They typically think only of their next meal and consumption of other things, leading them to be very carnivorous and parasitic creatures. They commonly live in the ground (or in other beings) and sometimes within water. Some are known to have a special film that protects their bodies and keeps it moist, and is sometimes toxic to the touch of others. Some can even spit acid, and have digestive systems accustomed to consuming anything that enters their mouths, no matter what it may be. This is because they are creatures that are known as 'decomposers,' and live to decompose other solid objects that normally cannot be destroyed by other means. They are like the 'clean up' crew of creatures.
Being very simple, they are also rather destructive when they come across their next meal, which could be anything at any given time. Though the smaller ones are not a very large threat save for perhaps acid they may spit, the larger ones prove to be the exceptionally dangerous ones, lurking beneath the ground and taking entire cities off of maps in one gulp. Because of their constant burrowing, wherever a large Worm lives, the ground will always be very moist and soft, as if constantly tilled, for miles and miles, and typically barren. Basically, they enrich and aerate soil. Many species of worms are decomposers; they break down dead plants and animals to return nutrients to the soil.
Though most have no eyes, they are all equipped with photoreceptors that allows them to sense even the most subtle changes in light, and also they are capable of sensing vibrations in their bodies. They can sense all things through touch, because they have no things like eyes, noses, ears and such. So, they are very sensitive to texture, feelings and so forth. Their organs also help to sense and differentiate light.
