Thunderherders are distant cousins to the purple worm but are not
aggressive. These creatures travel in vast herds just a few feet under the
ground. They are inoffensive and of sizes ranging from 3-5 feet wide and
5-10 feet long. They are found in desert regions.

Earthquake: The main dangers from thunderherders are the incidental earth tremors
and the terrible trumpeting that they create as they stampede underground.
They do no real damage but generate a great deal of confusion,
knock over tents, and panic all pack animals. A single creature can cause
a small tremor.
