The roaming alphabet bugs supply the energy that allows Wordrotters to remain alive. Wordtrotters must catch them in the right order that spells out a bugword to activate their energizing substances.
When caught, the Letterbugs hook up to form a Wordtrotter’s body and follow it wherever it goes. Once the Wordtrotter has consumed the bugword’s energy, the Letterbugs separate from it to hibernate and recharge.
Some bugwords have the ability to grant supernatural powers to the one who possesses them. The most powerful of them is the elusive Anti-Spell, a bugword that can undo any curse.
