A parasitic creature with a segmented, serpentine body, covered in a slick, dark crimson skin that shimmers with an oily sheen. Its underside features numerous small, barbed tendrils designed for firm attachment, feeling both adhesive and sharply chitinous. A central, elongated proboscis extends from its head, appearing tough and needle-like. Its body is mottled with subtle, pulsating grey veins, and a series of small, glowing orange nodes run along its flanks, giving it a soft, internal warmth, contrasting with its cold, external texture.
