Venomthropes have scrawny bodies and many whip-like tentacles that are coated in poisons capable of causing death from a single touch. Its gas bladders are its primary form of attack, producing spore clouds of yellowish vapour containing phage organisms lethal to non-Tyranid life while providing cover to Tyranid creatures. Brief exposure causes nausea and spasms, while more than a minute results in infection that allows no escape for the victim from their organic tissue slowly breaking down.{{Fn|1}}
Leaving the floating Venomthropes on their own is also a bad tactic decision, because Venomthropes' poison not only the indigenous life of the planet, but also its atmosphere and soil, leaving the poison-shrouded planet fit only for consumption by the Hive Fleet.{{Fn|1}}
