Formea Wyrms

== Overview ==
Formea Wyrms are microscopic, aquatic, and carnivorous Creations, born in Reality by the Eternal Soaring of Creation in year 1240 of the Human Era. They originate from the Magenti River in the Gryusch Wilds, and are responsible for the catastrophic Formea Wyrm Crisis. Due to this event, the Formea Wyrms were classified as an SS level Terror.
== Description ==
A proper visual of the Formea Wyrms is very difficult to find, but by all accounts, they are simplistic looking silver wyrms that are too small for the eye to see. They live in still waters, and are weak swimmers, unable to dwell in even the most gentle of currents. While carnivorous, these wyrms do not require a regular intake of sustenance, and can survive for months at a time without nourishment. Their introduction to freshwater sources have drastically reduced the number of freshwater species worldwide. They tend to breed rapidly, and have an average lifespan of 2 years.
While not very robust creatures, the Formea Wyrms are able to cling to surfaces long after water has been removed from them, thus increasing their spread. They can survive without water for close to 5 days, and can even survive in heated water. Many soldiers in the Soil War conflicts discovered that boiling lakewater was not enough to fully purify it before consumption, and died as a result.
Formea Wyrms are ravenous eaters once exposed to the proper environment. Even a single wyrm ingested into a Human stomach can internally devour them within months, never once stopping its endless consumption. Due to their small size, they eat cell-by-cell, causing gradual yet unimaginable pain to their hosts. There is currently no effective method for flushing Formea Wyrms out of one's body once infiltrated. Depending on the number of wyrms ingested, a person will be internally eaten to death within 4 to 150 days.
