Mending maggots are a type of magical creature often used for medicinal purposes. While many cultures use maggots to clean necrotic or infected tissue from serious injuries, some healers in Brightmarch and the Laqto Rainforest use this particular variety of maggot due to their additional abilities. While they clean wounds, mending maggots also secrete a substance that aids in healing, regrowing and repairing flesh far faster than natural processes would allow.
Mending maggots are found only in certain parts of the Laqto Rainforest near the Okoton Estuary. They can be identified by the distinctive red stripe that runs from one end of the creature to the other.
