Bookworm

Bookworms were dangerous pests and the bane of librarians everywhere.

Description
Bookworms were tiny creatures usually only measuring an inch in length. The body of a bookworm was gray, but could be changed to a different color to suit the surroundings and help it blend in.

Combat
These slight creatures avoided combat at all costs, using their speed to escape threats.

Habitat/Society
Bookworms inhabited libraries or any other place where a large volume of printed lore could be found. If a bookworm was discovered then the chances were high that plenty more were feasting nearby.

Ecology
Bookworms fed on paper and bindings. They were incapable of eating flesh or other living material but could bore through wood and even leather if needed.
