Tyranid
,no edit summary
The '''Tyranids''' are an extragalactic alien race, whose sole purpose is the consumption of all forms of genetic and biological material in order to evolve and reproduce. Tyranid technology is based entirely on biological engineering. Every function is carried out by living, engineered creatures, each of which collectively forms the [[Hive Fleet]], directed by a single [[Hive Mind]].
The Tyranids are seen as a grave threat to the entire galaxy. As of now, they have consumed one thousand galaxies and are responsible for the annihilation of millions of intelligent species.<sup>3</sup>
