The Fireworm[1] (マンバー[2] Manbā?, lit. "Mamba") is an enemy that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is a mass-produced, worm-based Badnik created by Dr. Eggman.
Appearance
Despite their name, Fireworms resemble more caterpillars than worms. The have five body segments, each with a pair of spikes on the lower sides and a hatch that spits flames on top. Their head segment has a pair of black eyes and four spikes around where their mouth would be.
Game appearances
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles
In Sonic & Knuckles and the lock-on game Sonic 3 & Knuckles, Fireworms are encountered in the tunnel sections of Lava Reef Zone. Usually found either by themselves or in groups, Fireworms will burst out of the walls and start floating back and forth, descending when turning left and ascending when turning right. While moving, their backs spew fire.
Since the Fireworms' backflames and belly spikes will inflict damage on the player should they attack their bodies from above or below. the player must attack the Fireworms' head with a Spin Jump to defeat them. However, Fireworms are some of the few Badniks that will respawn after being destroyed if the player wanders far enough away for their spawning point to get off-screen.
Sonic Rivals
In Sonic Rivals, the Fireworm appears as a collectible card.
Sonic Mania
In Sonic Mania, and its expansion Sonic Mania Plus, the Fireworms are enemies found in both Acts of Lava Reef Zone. In gameplay, they are at first hidden in a hole on a wall. When the playable character approaches them however, they will reveal themselves and start floating back and forth, descending when turning left and ascending when turning right. While moving, their backs spew fire. Because of this, the Fireworms' body segments will damage the playable character upon contact. Thus, they can only be destroyed by attacking their heads with a Spin Jump. Upon their destruction, they will release an Animal and award the player with 100 points.
Powers and abilities
Fireworms are capable of flight and can spew fire from their body segments to damage their foes.
