Species
Conduit worm
Canon Legends version → Linked from 18 articles
Conduit worms were non-sentient, parasitic worms native to the planet Coruscant that fed on electricity. They absorbed components as they grew along the ecumenopolis' electrical conduits, turning them into organs. The worms could grow hundreds of meters long, infesting electrical power cable wiring in the Coruscant Underworld and feeding off starship power. The name "conduit worm" could also be used as an insult, akin to calling someone a "little parasite."
