Editing Sunworm (section)

==Warhammer 40,000==
Sunworm is a native creature of the Luther Macintyre IX (desert Death World).

It resembles a fat, large and oily maggots without eyes or any other sensory organs. They have a rudimentaly sense of touch, smell and hearing. The Sunworms absorb little food that it need directly through its own skin, excreting waste out materials in the same way. Sunworms evolved in unique way to feed upon solar energy. Every day they assumed a position partly in the direct light, partly - in shadows, making itself as living photo-electric cell. During the night Sunworms use this energy to survive the darknest time. They can use accumulated energy to defend themselves, instinctively directing an energy discharge to any creature that may pose a threat to them.

The question whether Sunworms could be domesticated to used as supply equipment, living quarters and life-support system remains open.
