The typical worm was a small creature, less than an inch long -- certainly small enough to fit in a makeup compact. It was green, and offered no physical threat. The worms thrived on alcohol, either as their natural medium or as a food supply. If a patron of Bianca's were to ingest any of the cabaret's "house special" tequila, it would realign that person's psychic wavelengths in with that of the worms. The worms could then influence the person, and in many circumstances control them outright.
