Shadow Worm
A vast burrowing horror woven from living darkness, grinding through stone and flesh with unhurried inevitability, healed by the dark.
A shadow worm is a vast burrowing horror woven from living darkness, knitting itself whole again wherever the light fails to reach. Nothing stops its advance — it grinds through stone, ward, and flesh with the same unhurried inevitability.
In play
Inexorable The shadow worm recovers from the paralyzed, slowed, and stunned conditions at the end of its turn. It's also immune to penalties to its Speeds and the immobilized condition, and it ignores difficult terrain and greater difficult terrain.
Shadow Healing As long as a shadow worm is in an area of dim light or darkness, it gains fast healing 20.
