So I'm making a token for one of my friends. It's a 5/5 green Wurm with trample. Do you guys have any suggestions for some cool flavor text?
I was thinking something along the lines of, "Despite their hulking size, they can appear in an instant."
The token is for {Advent of the Wurm}, by the way. But I suppose it can also be used with {Worldspine Wurm} and {Armada Wurm}.
Edit: I'll post a link to a thread in the art section with the picture there when it's finished.

I don't quite see how Wurms would rule the skies, lol. Explain?
Edit: Wow, quite a few popped up while I was posting that, lol. Thanks for the contributions guys!

Yeah, that's one that I'm thinking about, lol. Also considering a couple others.
"Deep rumbles shake the world beneath,
Civilizations ravaged by its jagged teeth,
If you truly wish to pursue the wurm,
Abandon all hope of returning home,
For when you find this hulking snake,
Which leaves naught but death in its wake,
You shall regret to look, to search,
When the earth itself will lurch"

That's awesome, but that will never fit on the token, lol.

sure it will, the word "trample" doesn't need much room
Except I'm planning on making the art come out of the border, which does take quite a bit of room.

In the early lore, wurms are said to come from the dragons who lost the dragon wars against the Elder dragons. The "lesser" dragons are said to have become wurms, kites, and drakes
I thought was just... Wurms... Like worms, but much scarier

I thought that was a Wyrm? Or is it basically 6 to one and half a dozen to another?

Half dozen of one six dozen of the other. MtG Wiki has it all if you google MTG Wurm lore.

I like this one.
There is no intentional demolition in this city. Between the wurms and the izzet there is no need.

Dang it. I was deciding between three then you had to post that and make it four. xD
Who knew such a beast could pop out of nowhere like that? I guess the people that found out didn't live to tell the tale.
