I need some help to make a purple worm encounter interesting.
I was thinking of having a tunnel network, which the party has to explore (seeking treasures - this is the original purpose of visiting the place).
The encounter can be spread out over several smaller encounters, where the PW attacks drilling from one of the sides of the tunnel, tries to eat a player and escapes.
Has anyone run similar encounters and do you have any advice, links, maps? I am in need of mechanics or ideas which can be stitched together. For example, if the PW eats a PC and makes a run, can the other PCs follow it and try to save the eaten character. How long is the PW (its diameter is 10ft).
The party is level 13, 3-5 people depending on how many show up. Party composition is not relevant.
