My first Forgeworld Model.XD
The abilities looks good from him, but I've never played with it.

^^
Imperial Designation: Malanthrope
Common Name: Corpse-Eater, Ingestor, Scanenger
Species Name: Tyranicus Cadavi Terriblis

Following in the wake of a Tyranid attack come the Ripper swarms and the hideos Malanthrope. The Malanthrope's role is to selectively collect and process the DNA material of fallen enemies before being reabsorbed, along with the Ripper swarms, into the Tyranid biomass, wich is then used to create more complex creatures. The Malanthropes full role is not yet understood and sightings of these strange creatures are rare, as few survive the initial attack long enough to witness the following waves.

The Malanthrope grasps dead, injured and unwary foes with its long groping tendrils. Its stings carry and highly venomous, cardiotoxic, neurotoxic and dermatonecrotic poison. Injected through the skin of just about any living creature it causes excruciating pain and disables its target, wich is then pulled up into the bloated sacks of the Malanthrope's torso where the DNA is slowly extradet- a terribla death for anybody unlucky enough to be caught by a Malanthrope.

Brood: Consits of 1 Malanthrope.

Biormorph: The Malanthrope always has Feeder Tendrils.

Hive Mind Powers: A Malanthrope always has the following psychic powers: Warp Field, Synapse Creature and the Horror.

Headquarters: A Malanthrope is a HQ choice for a Tyranid army. To include a Malanthrope in your amry you must also include at least 1 Ripper swarm.

Special Rules
Large Target: The Malanthrope is a large traget. It can be targeted instead of normal infatry without a target priority check.

Fleet of Tendril: The Malanthrope glides along at a terrifying rate on writhing tendrils. They are 'Fleet' as described on page 74 of the warhammer 40.000 rulebook.

Multiple Attacks: The Malanthrope has a random number of attacks each turn. At the start of each Assault phase roll a D6 and add 1, this is the number of attacks from the Malanthrope's grooping tendrils. The Malanthrope does benefit from +1 attack if it assaults an enemy unit.

Anaphylactic Shock: Due to its extreme toxicity, any wound from the Malanthrope causes Instant Death. This does not work against Deamons- being 'of the warp' they are immune to the Malanthrope's toxins.

Corrosion soothing the hurt within
Surroundings reaching to touch your skin
Progress in stalemate. Death is alive
Eyes and mind glint - Glints collide
That is cool!

I wonder, what are their attacks?

I'm sorry, but it seems I have purposely misplaced my sword in your stomach.

Revenge is a dish best served at room temperature, garnished with parsley and seasoned to taste.

Marten - "Short of her climbing into my lap and humping vigorously, no."
