Anatomy of a Flobberworm
Chapter 2
It isn't hard to see how the Ministry saw flobberworms as "boring". They aren't very complex in a physical sense. In fact, to the unaware, flobberworms could be seen as lacking any complexity. But, if you look closer, the flobberworm has a very unique appearance and body composition.
A flobberworm has two main parts; the front and the rear. There is no way to look at a flobberworm and identify which is the rear or the front. They have no eyes or nose, with holes on each end. In fact, a flobberworm is the only creature, magically speaking, in the world to be completely symmetrical. The only way to tell the difference is to observe each end's habits. The main functions that flobberworms perform are eating and producing mucus. Both ends do both, but the front eats more and the rear produces mucus more.
Flobberworms are segmented, which means that their body is divided in sections by clearly visible lines, like mundane worms. This is why we call them flobber"worms", even though they aren't worms at all. All flobberworms have exactly seven segments which may relate to their acceptance to magic.
Flobberworms are very widespread due to their quick reproduction techniques. They have female and male organs which work together to make the flobblet, which is a baby flobberworm. This means that flobberworms are asexual. This happens every month, with an hour gestation period. Flobberworms give birth to live young. Other organs include a stomach taking up most of the flobberworm's body, a basic heart, and a simple brain.
