Termagant

The Termagant is one of the basic warrior units of the Tyranid Swarm, and one of the most commonly encountered creatures on the battlefield. They are bred and unleashed in their thousands by the hive fleets in great waves to blunt the fire of their enemies and overwhelm them in an unstoppable tide of flesh and fang. Man-sized, but low and hunched in appearance, they are agile, fast, and extremely deadly. Termagants are usually armed with a variety of symbiotic weapon-creatures of various forms, as well as needle-teeth and ripping claws with which to rend and devour their prey.
