The body is colored brown with scattered spots in different hues of purple and blue across it. Its entire body is covered in a thick shiny translucent light blue coating that includes five tentacles near the mouth.

History
"Bubble Buddies"
The Worm Monster was first seen at the bottom of the ocean, eating glowing seaweed. It possessed a habit of burrowing into the ocean floor, resulting in frequent tremors and loud screeching to erupt throughout Beach City.
After falling to the bottom of the ocean, Steven and Connie see the Worm Monster for the first time. The creature then dives into the ocean floor, causing the ground to shake and crack open, making Steven and Connie fall into a pit. The monster reappears after Connie and Steven reach the surface of the ocean and chases them to shore. Steven notices the creature is highly attracted to Connie's bracelet because it glows. Grabbing it, he leads the monster around the pier supports, causing them to break and crush the Worm Monster beneath the pier, it then explodes and Garnet bubbles its gemstone.
