here's my idea, it'd be round half the size of a skulk his attacks would be:
1.)Bite 2.)Leap 3.)Mind parasite- This abilitie is different: This creature which i called the Rhox , aimed at the marines head Leaps and goes in through the mouth and into the brain. The Rhox, destroys the brain causing instant death. The Rhox must wait 40 seconds before he can switch to bite And destroy the marine from the inside. 4.)Attach- The Rhox can cling itself onto A marine undetedcted and stay on the outside of a marine and travel along where the marine goes and can be detached by death.
Health: 50 Armour:(without cara) 35 (with) 60
So this is an overall light and strategic creature. BTW I plan on making a concept art.

Someone had the idea of a chestburster, like in Aliens. Well, I thought why not take it a step further with an infested human? Instead of a chestburster, tentacles burst out of the back, come around to the face, and form a gasmask-like thing on the marines face. Another tentacle (also from the back) wraps around the right arm; it can then be used as a poisonous whip. The other arm fuses with the human weapons. Then he starts taking on a more alien look... it's hard to explain.... I have a picture but no way to post it.
I drew up a concept art of a Rhox but i forgot 1 crucial part.....I don't have a scanner <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->

Rana shoots out its' powerful tongue and it wraps around a marine. Marine is unable to move or shoot, but is dragged slowly to Ranas reach, where it kills the marine automatically. Luckily Rana can not move either during the dragging/chomping process, and this is a good time for other marines to shoot the creature. All lonely marines fear Rana, as it often waits above doors and grabs marines with its tongue when there's no other marines to help the rambo. HAs are strong enough to release their hands quickly and are often able to shoot the alien before it can bite them. Ranas Tongue attack is also fairly good against jetpackers. (this attack has been already coded in opposing force, no extra work needed) <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
This sounds like the boogey man who waits for newbies to wander astray before snatching them up away from their squad. I can imagine little rambos talking about their encounters with the fabled beast.
Cute idea, nice sketch by Duenen, just doesn't seem like it would fit in though. So far the aliens have webs, acid attacks, spontaneous combustion, paralyctic enzymes, and talons. Tounge lashing just wounld't work in that assortment dontcha think?
Actually, they're more like claws than they are talons...And actually, if it was <i>spontaneous</i> combustion, the skulks would blow up at random, not at will.
All animals, or virtually all animals, with claws can retract them Kharaa can't. That makes em talons <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
It would be soo much if they did spontaneously combust wouldn't it? I mean picture it.

1: Bite - Faster then the skulk bite - 40 dmg. 2: Poison(spit) - 10 dmg - every second in 5 seconds or untill marine gets medpack. 3: Puke - Ratty pukes on floor and leaves a poisonous mucus. Poison marine 10 dmg every second in 5 second or untill marine gets medpack 4: Death(bite) - Ratty leaves a parasite inside the marines skin thats slowly crawls up to his brain and kills him. No cure for death. Takes 3minutes untill the marine dies. --------------------- 60 hp 50 armor --------------------- Slightly smaller and faster then a Skulk..
and now the picture.. im really new to Photoshop so i havnt really colorized it well or anything and my mouse doesnt work normaly so i really cant.. but you get the concept also i had a poor scanner (whine whine whine)

How bout this? JUGGERNAUGHT, it's the size of like how a skulk is to an onos compares, well it's the next thing up from an onos, Eight times bigger though, This'd only work in NS for HL2 with possible outdoor maps.
1)stomp- the Juggernaught deals 100 damage to an enemy. 2)Roar-the Juggernaught makes a giant roar sound for all to hear and gives a bonus 30 damage to attacks in a radius for aliens. 3)Rampage-A form of charge from the onos but double the damage. 4)earthquake- a supercharged form of the onos' stomp.

It's really a question of literature or writing. Which sounds more imposing to you a claw or a talon? Plus it doesn't matter much anyway so bah.
Abilities:
1: Bite - Faster then the skulk bite - 40 dmg.
2: Poison(spit) - 10 dmg - every second in 5 seconds or untill marine gets medpack.
3: Puke - Ratty pukes on floor and leaves a poisonous mucus. Poison marine 10 dmg
every second in 5 second or untill marine gets medpack
4: Death(bite) - Ratty leaves a parasite inside the marines skin thats slowly crawls
up to his brain and kills him. No cure for death. Takes 3minutes untill the marine dies.
