'''Hive Tyrants''' are monstrous [[Tyranid]] creatures, who act as the main [[Synapse]] links to the [[Hive Mind]] within medium-sized [[Tyranid]] ground forces, thus coming to be the closest thing to a leader unit that can be commonly found.
Some [[Imperial]] techno-magi believe that Hive Tyrants are the consort-minds of the [[Norn-Queen]] that forms the repository of the [[Hive Fleet]]'s own collective consciousness, which would mean they completely embody the Hive Mind, but their destruction would not diminish it in any way.<sup>2</sup>
