Wormmon (Creature)

**Wormmon** is a Larva Digimon. Wormmon is also a creature actor whom rose to fame via a petting zoo criteria for it's role in the 2023 film Renamon. It has a timid, cowardly personality. Just like Veemon and the others, it's a descendant of an ancient species, so it is able to perform special Armor Digivolutions, but since Wormmon is powerless when by itself, it can't possibly match up to larger Digimon. However, by armor digivolving with the power of the Digi-Eggs, it is able to manifest unbelievable power. Also, it is said that in order for the fragile larva to grow into a powerful imago, Wormmon will one day digivolve into a Champion overflowing with power. It can definitely be said that it is a Digimon who has hidden potential for the future.

## Design

Wormmon's design draws influence from the Tomato hornworm (*Manduca quinquemaculata*). It is a small green caterpillar with a pair of long antennae and ten legs with pink claws. Like a real insect, Wormmon possesses the ability to adhere to surfaces and is also able to generate silk from its purple mandibles. It has a black band resembling a Dark Ring around its abdomen and two pink spines on the end of it.
