Larva Mage (Dungeons & Dragons) OR Writhing Sorcerer (Dreamblade)

I've shown a few Dreamblade figures that became Dungeons & Dragons monsters, and now it's time for the reverse!

 

Depending on which edition you look at, the Larva Mage is either a spawn of Kyuss, an evil, eldritch worm-god, or the reanimated remains of a dead wizard, now composed of numerous worms functioning as a single entity.

 

Or both. This is the Worm that Walks.

 

In D&D, a Larva Mage has lots of magical abilities, and is creepy. In Dreamblade, a Writhing Sorcerer can force an opponent to take his own figures from his reserves and put them in his graveyard - and then simultaneously gain extra spawn points next turn from the destruction. Rather useful, actually. Mind Mulch away!

 

It's based on the "Crawling Ones" from H. P. Lovecraft's short story, "The Festival."
