The Lava Worm, also known as the Grey W in the Nintendo Entertainment System version, is an enemy in the original Final Fantasy. The Lava Worm is the weakest of the Worm family and is distinguished by its green skin. It is weak to Ice. A normal Ice spell should be enough for this monster, and if it does not die, the player will be able to finish it off easily. Due to the Lava Worm's reappearance in the "Marilith Room" of the Chaos Shrine, these enemies should not pose a threat to the player's party and can be easily defeated with a strong physical attack.
