Sportlebore Swarm

A swarm of sportlebores is a much more dangerous foe than a single insect.

The bane of hungry adventurers the world over, sportlebores are nefarious vermin that resemble delicious snacks. When positioned near trail rations, such as fruit or jerky, a sportlebore can flawlessly imitate these foodstuffs by flexing, contorting, and color-shifting its abdomen, then folding its thorax, head, and legs within its delicious-looking body. Once consumed, the sportlebore reproduces into a hungry swarm that's regurgitated by the now ailing eater, ravenously attacking any creatures it thinks it can consume.
