Editing Parasite of Mortrex (section)

===On the Tabletop===
Makings its debut in 9th edition, and being the first new Tyranid model that broke the dry spell just before 10th edition, it seems that the Hive Mind decided that the Parasite of Mortrex passed its trial run as an experimental bio-form, and graduated it to a standard monster-of-the-line, as an army can include more than one of these creatures.

In terms of function, they function a lot like a [[Ravener]], being just a bit faster and hardier, and having the unique ability to actually embed ripper swarm models into enemy units that its wounded with its barbed tail. This also robs them of ObSec. Coupled with its Deep Strike ability, the Parasite of Mortrex has an odd job of being a flanker that provides its own back-up, as its quick speed and ability to fly give it high mobility.
