Originally, the lich idea I had was a creature whose muscular was composed of flesh-eating night crawlers similar to the ones in the 1976 American nature horror film Squirm, which got parodied by Mystery Science Theater 3000. I even found a picture of similar-looking lich-type creature on the Monster Gallery. But then I thought--well, the monster in the picture doesn't look ferocious-enough, instead, it's looks rather melancholy and rather dignified (maybe British even) while the thing in the story is a curse-maddened, vermin-squirming and all-devouring monster held together by stubborn will and a rain poncho.
