Description

You create an animated roiling mass of sand, coalescing into the form of a great worm. The worm must occupy 4 to 6 orthogonally contiguous 5-foot cube spaces, starting at a space adjacent to you. You may slowly move the worm by removing an occupied space and adding another orthogonally contiguous space up to 8 times. You can also grow the worm up to its maximum spaces by spending its “movement.” If any part of the worm occupies a space that is not adjacent to at least 3 other spaces occupied by the worm upon creation or at the end of the worm’s movement, that part dissipates. The worm must remain orthogonally contiguous. You move the worm at the end of each of your turns (no action).

The worm deals 2d4+4 acid damage to creatures sharing at least 1 space after you resolve its movement. Creatures that take damage are entangled (moving at half speed) for 1 round and moved up to 15 ft. to a location of your choice, overlapping the worm by at least half the target’s space. A successful Fortitude save halves the damage and negates both the entangled condition and the forced movement. Creatures huge or larger cannot be moved. The worm provides soft cover across its spaces.

The worm dissipates after having done damage for 1 round per 3 caster levels. Max 6 rounds at caster level 15th. The maximum spaces of the worm increase by 1 per caster level above the 4th, maximum of 4 to 16 spaces at the 14th level.

Test Campaign House Rules

0 House Rules Directory v2 House Rules General Rules and Etiquette Changing Rules: Rules may be patched or changed during the campaign. This will only happen between chapters. Scheduling: Please reply to scheduling messages ASAP. It does not have to be a yes/no immediately, but if it’s a maybe, you should at least give a reason why it’s a maybe. Preferably with an ETA of when you’ll get better information. If a player fails to show up to a session 2 or more times without good reason, they may be removed from the game. Character Motivations: Regardless of the PCs alignment and personality, I want them to cooperate with each other. For smoothness, I want the party to always be on the same map and to actively help each other during combat. The characters’ motivations must therefore be aligned, at least until the end of a chapter. If character motivations are misaligned, the minority half may have a separate session, or become NPCs until they realign. Roleplay:...
