Editing Tyrant Guard (section)

==Physiology==
Tyrant Guard models from 3rd Edition. And yes, they are weird as shit. And kinda [[Slaanesh|kinky.]]
The Tyrant Guard is approximately one and a half times the size of a [[human]], and though their actual body length is much taller, they stand on <s>all fours</s> most(?) sixes (cause they have six limbs) in a pose similar to that of gorillas or overgrown guard dogs. Which is pretty much their role on the battlefield: to stay close to their master and eat anything that gets close, be it assailant or heavy weapons fire. They are living shields, their sole purpose in existence being to soak up heavy weapons fire and die so that their Hive Tyrant does not. For this purpose they are designed to be exceptionally durable and well-armored: they can all but ignore small-arms fire and even when hit by a dedicated anti-tank weapon they will just not stop. Its [[Exoskeleton]] includes large armor plates which cover most of its body to negate any weak spots: it does not even have eyes so there is no weakness for the enemy to exploit. It takes continuous, accurate fire to take down a Tyrant Guard before it and its charge can reach their target, which often means that if you do manage to kill it, there are a few dozen [[Hormagaunt]]s snacking on your jollies. The Tyrant Guard is an extension of its charge's will: if the Hive Tyrant it is linked with is slain the Tyrant Guard [[RAGE|flips its shit]] and will start to [[RIP AND TEAR|MURDER EVERYTHING IT CAN GET NEAR]]. Not out of revenge or to martyr itself, but for the simple reason that the Tyrant Guard is a creature whose intelligence is on par with that of a [[Ripper]]. This does not mean that the Tyrant Guard is a harmless foe: its sheer bulk and massive claws means one can punch you into [[meatbread]] in a single blow. Tyrant Guard can be armed with [[Tyranid_Bio-Weapons#Scything Talons|scything talons]], [[Tyranid_Bio-Weapons#Lash Whip|lash whips]] or [[Tyranid_Bio-Weapons#Bonesword|boneswords]], so they can deal with a variety of foes in close combat.

Because of their small size in comparison to the Hive Tyrant and their limited potential to move their arms upwards, the only logical way Tyrant Guard could stop incoming shots would be to jump like [[Video games|Super Mario]]. It is rumored that the Tyrant Guard have had their physiology created through the DNA the Hive Fleet gained from defeating Chapters of [[Space Marines]]. Which means by extension, the Hive Mind has consumed a portion of [[Emprah|Big E’s]] DNA. This is however, considered to be extremely [[heresy|heretical thinking]] and will be punished by {{BLAM|'''*BLAM*ming.'''}}
