I'm reading through my copy of the DMG, and while reading through the dungeon section. inspiration struck.
first, some backstory
a week or so ago, I accidentally killed my friend's paladin with an evil gnome with a ballista (solo campaign, so being dead, that story is over, but i'll expand on it if you ask me too) anyways, long story short, I had given this paladin alot more magic and gear than would normally be approriate for starting at level one, it was after all, a solo campaign revolvin entirly around this paladin. it was also my world builder, unfortunately the aforementioned dead paladin died just outside the 2nd area he went too. but i digress, the point is i wish to use the cave he died in, i'm very continuity conscious, and i plan to leave his body there, along with his gear, for another group to find somewhere down the line. including the dead gnomes he killed before his armour was redecorated with a ballista bolt.
my base problem is this: I have a book around here somewhere (I cannot recall what it is named, but it was published by wotc, and was not a sourcebook, it simply had some nice fluff in it including pictures, description, and height weight etc) anyways, within this book was a giant worm like creature, or possibly more akin to a very LARGE and very FAT caterpillar. it was blue, and it sucked the magic out of items for sustenance.
NAME THAT CREATURE
I wish to use it for my dungeon.
thankyou in advance
i can describe what i remember of the creature further if necessary
