Xenomorph Soldier

Xenomorphs are a nasty, efficient life form.  They are a series V life form, based on silicone rather than carbon as humans are.  They are oxygen using creatures with a powerful organic sulfuric acid for blood.  Xenomorphs doubtless originate from a class 3 environment that must have been hostile indeed.  They are able to survive in class 1 - class 3 environments without much difficulty and in class 0 environments for a limited amount of time.  They are the ultimate example of an adaptable species with extreme natural tolerances.

The xenomorphs were brought to the Verge by the Yautja for hunting.  The Yautja will turn some eggs loose on a planet to hatch and use the natural surroundings to develop the xenomorphs.  The Yautja will then come back later and hunt these nasty creatures.  They are usually quite efficient  in killing all the xenomorphs and letting the ecosystem return to normal, but every once in a while a few may be missed.  These xenomorphs that are left behind will eventually grow and destroy the ecosystem in witch they are living. 

Very few Vergers have actually encountered xenomorphs and none have lived to tell about the experience.  The Yautja have had to return to a previous hunt site to destroy some xenomorph nests that have overrun a few, small human settlements.   This is usually done with weapons of mass destruction to erase all evidence of the xenomorphs' presence.

Ecology:
There is always only one Queen alien controlling the hive. She is in complete control of everything that goes on in the hive. When a hive becomes too large a new baby queen will be born, which will leave the nest immediately to start her own community. The Queen rarely fights and relies on the Alien Soldier to protect her at all times. On rare occasions the queen will detach herself from the egg layer and fight on her own.
