The Fridge Worm (Ventworm cryocthonian, "vent worm that brings cold from below") is the cold-end counterpart to the Awnworm — a sessile plume worm that thrives near cold-water upwellings and cold seeps rather than hot vents. The name references its adaptation to bring cold from depth up into shallower areas. Found in the Graveyard biome, passive and harmless. Like the Awnworm, it is a deep-seafloor extremophile with no terrestrial analog.

Where to Find

Graveyard

Stats

Scientific Name Ventworm cryocthonian

Notes

Behavior: Completely passive. Sessile plume worm at cold seeps in the Graveyard.

Tips:

  1. Like the Awnworm, the Fridge Worm marks cold-seep locations — good indicator for finding geological features in the Graveyard.
  2. Safe to scan; requires Heat Tolerance Adaptation to safely operate in the Graveyard.
