## Overview

The Mother of Worms is not only the leader of the Children of the Worm cult but apparently in a symbiotic relationship with the Devil Worm with whom she converts unsuspecting victims into her mindless slaves or voluntary followers into her loyal servants.

With false promises of hope, food and shelter, she lured desperate people via loudspeaker and radio announcements to various locations such as the Kanowa County Jail, the Lazy River Resort or the J. Evans Hockey Arena, where she set up her hideouts.

Currently, it is unknown if the Mother of Worms thinks and acts completely independently or if she is merely a puppet of the Devil Worm and part of a collective consciousness.

## Appearance

The Mother of Worms has a skin discoloration typical of cultists and glowing red eyes. Her outfit is mostly orange fabric from prison inmate clothing like the other cultists.

She has an oversized hood that covers her head. Over her shoulders she wears several layers of black cloth, with belt loops visible at the ends. Over these layers of fabric and an orange robe, she wears a black cape. Her arms are covered by black sleeves full of holes. The Mother of Worms' hands feature sharp dark fingernails. For footwear she wears black boots.

Over her outfit she has painted various runes. Among others, these runes are the following: Camp, Gathering, Heralds of the Worm, Judgement, The Damned, The Harvesters, and The Maw.

## Notes

* The Mother of Worms stands out as the only main character to never meet the Cleaners in person. Her physical appearance was only revealed when the River of Blood DLC came out, as she is seen in the cinematic cutscenes and the jumbotron during the Harbinger fight.
* The Mother of Worms voice actress Maggie Robertson is known for her role as Lady Alcina Dimitrescu in Resident Evil Village.
