Dune Splicer

The Dune Splicer is a worm-type enemy that spawns in Underground Deserts during Hardmode. It is the hardmode Tomb Crawler and behaves similarly to the Underworld's Bone Serpent. It appears above background walls and behind liquids and tiles. Like other worms, it goes through blocks and requires them to move about. The actual worm is much larger than the one shown in the preview, with ~10 segments.

Trivia

 * The Dune Splicer's name may be a reference to the 1965 novel Dune, which features a desert planet inhabited by giant sandworms.
 * The Dune Splicer is the hardmode version of the Tomb Crawler
