An '''Exocrine''' is a large [[Tyranid]] creature bred for long range fire support. Little more than a living artillery platform, the Exocrine is controlled by the brain of its [[Bio-Plasmic Cannon]] [[Biomorph]], a giant weapon able to unleash a vast ball of plasma, or several focussed streams of fire from its multiple barrels. The Exocrine itself is purely a means of transportation for the bio-plasmic cannon nested into its flesh.{{Fn|3}} Only when the larger beast remains still can the symbiote focus all of its mental resources into targeting and destroying its prey.{{Fn|4}} Because of their ability to deliver powerful long-ranged firepower, Exocrines are perhaps the most feared gun-beast in the Tyranid swarms.{{Fn|2}}
