He also wrote Creatures of the Tropical Wastelands, and 100 Oddities found in a Car. If the impact does not kill the target, they will often rinse and repeat as necessary.Ĭhris Van Deelen is the creator and contributor to over half of the Wisdom from the Wastelands series, contributor to the Swords of Kos: Hekaton anthology. One of this particular Xeno’s favorite tactic is to grab a victim they do not wish to use for implantation and haul the target up into the sky, where if it proves to be particularly difficult to deal with, they will simply let it go and watch as it plummets to the ground. It has been discovered this particular species is generally targeted by other hives for destruction, as the queen sees this creature as a potential rival and will send her own drones and other variants, particularly the Praetorian guards to deal with it. The only aspect which makes up for this is the increase in their base movement. They are rather clumsy fliers, taking far longer to maneuver and turn. They typically do this only once every 48-72 hours, as they spend the rest of the time hunting for food or for potential hosts.įlying is not an easy chore for these creatures, as the base genetic code never really took the possibility into account. While resting, they will spend up to 24 hours and for a single egg, which they will attach to the ceiling instead of on the ground, as is the case with a normal queen. The creature – according to reports – is also capable of producing eggs, like a queen, although at a much slower rate. When resting in the hive, the creatures use their feet claws to hang upside-down, in the same manner as the bat from which they obtained part of their genetic code. The creature’s skull is also somewhat shorter than the average Xenomorph, and has a large Mohawk-like crest.
These are more similar to that of the mythical dragon than an actual bat, and often show damage from close encounters with obstacles or unfriendly combatants. The major difference is instead of the typical tubes and spikes on the back, it possesses a set of massive wings.
The creature is approximately ten feet in length, and has the standard bio-mechanical exoskeleton. The end result is a much larger than normal Xenomorph, and one which has the ability to fly. The originator of this particular variant must have been a massive bat in order to be used as a host. A particular type of Xenomorph variant which has been infused with the genetic material of Chiroptera.
