It ruled part of the surface of Earth in the devastation following the asteroid impact, using the Voice of the Wyrm to mutate Chicxulub into Wyrmcallers. Its mutative voice could also damage time itself.

The emergence of the Wyrm altered some of the physics around Earth, granting psychic abilities to the Earth Reptiles and creating the wild fields in the sky which allowed for the existence of floating islands.
