Worm That Walks Cultist

A worm that walks wears the shape of a person, but that shape is a lie: a seething colony of carrion worms holding the form of a long-dead spellcaster, animated by the will that refuses to let the body rot in peace. Cut it down and the illusion breaks apart into a writhing flood.

Discorporate When the worm that walks is reduced to 0 HP, it discorporates and the component worms that make up its body disperse in every direction. If even a single worm escapes, the worm that walks will eventually re-form using a process that typically takes 1d10 days. While the exact circumstances and surroundings determine how long the worm that walks's foes have to dispatch the fleeing worms before they escape, usually its foes have only a single round.
