Description

Files: Xenomorph> Internecivus Raptus> Variants> Hierophant...

Specimen was recovered by the hauler turned archeological vessel, the USS Conrad. Team of twelve sent down on LV-248 to excavate derelict craft, Engineer origin. Organic artifact was discovered and brought aboard for study.
Ship population of fifty reduced to one, a Hyperdyne systems model 335-B synthetic technician remaining.
Memory extracted from damaged unit revealed organic artifact to be dormant Hierophant specimen and cause of the crews demise.
The Hierophant had only killed eight crew members itself, rest of the population suicides, accidents and murder. Hierophant appears to be able to influence prey thought process, causing paranoia, depression, and obsession among other manias. Unknown how Hierophant influences brain patterns, current theory is weaponized pheromones.
Hierophant is physically stronger but slower than warrior and drone specimens, preferring ambush or subduing prey with mental influence.  Victims often killed intimately, disabled by club of tail and hoisted by stinger.
Specimen status and location: Unknown
