The Worms are a parasitic species, entering into symbiotic relationships with other sentient races in order to amass greater power for themselves. As larvae, they can inhabit the bodies of other beings, such as those of their servant race the [[Hive]], and "feed" off the power acquired by their hosts through following the [[Sword-Logic]]. Worm larvae are pale and about a meter in length, with rounded heads, six short spines on their back, and two spines at the end of their tail.

As adults, Worms can reach tremendous size; [[Xol]], the first of the five Worm Gods encountered by the Guardians, was hundreds of meters in length, and the size of the [[Dreadnaught]] suggests that [[Akka]] (one of whose segments was used by [[Oryx]] to craft his flagship) was orders of magnitude larger. Fully grown Worms are covered with segmented plates and numerous spines, and have heads with six barbed mandibles surrounding glowing eye-like structures.
