Description
Its appearance resembles somewhat a worm. Unlike a true worm, a frost worm's head is made of strong plates with a large number of black spider-like eyes, and a pair of strong maw. Frost worms are generally colored from white to light-blue, making them fit the icy landscape perfectly. Their body can generate intense cold, freezing those who come to close to him.
Frost worms prefer to bury themselves in the snow, waiting for prey to come near and then jump out and bite. Their thick skin also serves as protection against enemies. A frost worm can emit terrible noise that paralyzes his prey. The only thing that isn't affected by its terrible howl is other frost worms. Also if a frost worm is killed its body will turn to ice and shatter, damaging anything around it.

Villages, unlike towns, have always been ruled by conformism, isolation, petty surveillance, boredom and repetitive malicious gossip about the same families. Which is a precise enough description of the global spectacle’s present vulgarity.”
—Guy Debord (b. 1931)
“Everything to which we concede existence is a posit from the standpoint of a description of the theory-building process, and simultaneously real from the standpoint of the theory that is being built. Nor let us look down on the standpoint of the theory as make-believe; for we can never do better than occupy the standpoint of some theory or other, the best we can muster at the time.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
