Lava worms

Lava worms are creatures that live in lava rich areas.

Locations

The most famous, and possibly only location where the lava worms reside is Mount Oberhide.

Diet

While lava worms are perfectly content eating just lava, they are known to eat any stray animal that comes too close to their region.

In 1724 a woman claimed a lava worm ate their husband. While they did not find the husband ever again, nobody could verify the claim.

Lava worms have no limbs. When eating animals they wrap themselves around the prey and choke them to death.

Myths

Ildroz

According to long standing Streaton myth, the lava worms were created by a lich called Ildroz as a guardians for his lair in Mount Oberhide. To this day, the mythical Ildroz has not been seen. It is unknown if he ever existed in the first place.

Magical evolution

Another long standing Streaton myth is that the lava worms evolved from common worms due to a magical artifact stored deep in Mount Oberhide. Sorcerer Uqihr spent his entire life scanning the mountain bit by bit to locate the artifact and never found it.
