The Hive Tyrant is a large and massively powerful Tyranid creature, the closest thing to a leader of a battlefield swarm yet seen. Like many Tyranids, they seem able to mutate rapidly, and several different physical characteristics have been reported. All Hive Tyrants are highly psychic, and their relationship to the Hive Mind is closer than even that of Tyranid Warriors. The Hive Tyrants embody the Hive Mind completely, but their destruction does not diminish it in any way.

Little is known for certain about the complex relationships between these creatures, but some of the Imperial Techno-Magi believe that Hive Tyrants are the consort-minds of the Hive Queen that forms the repository of the hive fleet's own collective consciousness.

A Hive Tyrant may be included in your Tyranid army as an HQ choice.
