The beast before you bears similarities to an earthworm, except it is considerably larger.  The beast has a gaping maw filled with tiny sharp teeth.  The phosphorescent slime coating the worm serves to both protect the beast and perhaps distract its foes.

Hunting strategies

The phosphorescent worm has a blinding maneuver attack that affects all creatures and players in the room:

A searing wave of white light flows out from a luminous worm!

The wave of white envelops you!
You're unaffected by the light.
The wave of white light emanating from the luminous worm envelops a speckled cave lizard.
The cave lizard blinks momentarily.
The wave of white light emanating from the luminous worm envelops a barbed cavern urchin.
The cavern urchin is unaffected by the wave of white light.
The wave of white light emanating from the luminous worm envelops a luminous worm.
The luminous worm is unaffected by the wave of white light.
The wave of white light emanating from the luminous worm envelops an ogre sentry.
The ogre sentry's eyes cloud over, becoming a milky blue.
