A Ravener from Dawn of War 2

Raveners appear to be related to both Rippers and Tyranid Warriors. These large, snake-like beasts are designed for fast assaults against light enemies and dig through the ground to perform surprise raids. They can dig with great speed, clawing their way through almost any substance with their spade-like talons. Sensing vibrations on the surface, they tunnel up to explode into enemy positions. Armed with symbiote weapons in their thorax, Raveners attack without warning. Due to their scout-like role, Raveners have no need to be within range of a synapse creature to be effective combatants.
