*'''Desperate Phagocytosis:''' At the start of any of your phases, The Thing from Below may decide to devourer its symbiotic parasite. If it does so, it regains one wound lost early in the game but loses the ''Symbiotic Parasite'' and ''Bio-electric Parasites Transmitter'' special rules.

*'''Mindless Monstrosity:''' If this model ever finds itself outside of a {{W40kKeyword|Synapse}} creature's {{W40kKeyword|Synapse}} radius, it has to move towards and charge the nearest unit (even if friendly). This model also suffers a -2 to its hit rolls and can only attack with its Scything Talons but doubles the number of attacks he makes.

*'''Predator from Below:''' If this model charges a unit incapable of firing overwatch, roll a die if the charge is successful; on a 2+ the enemy unit suffers D3 mortal wounds, 3 on a 6+.

*'''Ripper Alpha:''' Friendly {{W40kKeyword|<Hive Fleet>}} {{W40kKeyword|Swarm}} units within 6" of this model can add 1 to their hit rolls in the Fight phase

*'''Symbiotic Parasite:''' When this model fights in the Fight phase, it can make an additional S:3 AP:0 D:1 attack that hits on a 4.

'''Warlord Trait:''' Heightened Senses
