Description

Queen is a huge Xenomorph that serves as the mother and leader of a Xenomorph hive. Her appearance differs from that of a drone, with a pair of extra arms and a large head crest. Individual Queens vary in size, age, and appearance.

They can engage in combat, but usually remains stationary, letting the Praetorians (or Drones, if none have developed yet), do their dirty work while they direct the hive and lays the eggs. A Queen can disconnect from its egg sack by pulling its tail out. A Queen is much more intelligent than a normal Xenomorph, displaying traits of anger and vengeance beyond any purely instinctual behavior.

Lair Actions. On initiative count 20, the Queen can take a lair action to cause one of the following lair effects. The Queen can't use the same effect two rounds in a row.

The Queen shrieks into the air. 1d4 Drones crawl from the walls and join the fight.

The Queen shrieks into the air. 1d4 Face Huggers hatch and join the fight.

The Queen shrieks into the air. A section of floor 40ft in radius begins to accumulate a viscous slime. Any non Xeno creature attempting to cross the section must succeed on a DC 15 DEX save every 10ft or fall prone.
