Alien Evasion
Description: The chestburster has advantage on Dexterity saving throws and Stealth checks while in dim light or darkness.
Rapid Escape
Description: If the chestburster is reduced to half its hit points or fewer, it can take the Disengage action as a bonus action on its turn.
Burrow for Cover
Description: If the chestburster spends 1 round in loose soil, flesh, or organic matter, it can burrow and become fully hidden. Tremorsense can detect it, but it gains full cover until it resurfaces.
Implant Legacy
Description: A creature that dies from the chestburster’s emergence cannot be resurrected except via wish or true resurrection unless the xenomorph is slain first.
Needle Bite
Action Melee Attack. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) piercing damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned until the end of its next turn.
Burst Forth (Special)
Description: If the chestburster emerges from a host (after a successful Facehugger implantation), the host dies instantly. Creatures within 10 feet must succeed on a DC 14 Wisdom saving throw or be frightened for 1 minute. Creatures that succeed are immune to this effect for 24 hours.
Description
A newly birthed xenomorph larva—fast, silent, and vicious. It flees when wounded, burrows into organic matter to hide, and strikes with a needlelike bite that leaves prey reeling, all while racing to survive long enough to grow into a far deadlier form.
