Description
This jaundiced snake-like alien is a result of the implanted Facehugger embryo that has grown to fruition. During the parasitic embryo stage, the target often feels sick to their stomach. Upon reaching maturity, the Chestburster rips its way out of the host's body in a visceral spray of blood and gore to later evolve into it's future form. It has small stubby appendages but can slithers quite quickly in this stage. They have concentrated acid for blood, so if damaged acid sprays from the wound. They are not common knowledge, most people have no idea they existf

Escape
With a hiss and a snarl, it dashes for the nearest duct or vent or sewer where it can evolve in peace into its next form. PCs can try to stop it from excaping by doing a contest of Dex with it. If the Chestburster wins it can escape. If it fails, it cannot escape this turn.
Leg Slash
This attack targets the legs of its target causing 2d8 damage to the legs. The target must make a CON save DC 12 or have its artery slashed. The target will bleed out in three rounds and must roll a Death Save vs DC 12 every round thereafter unless they receive medical aid (DC 14 to treat).
Terrorizing Hiss
With a flash of its metallic teeth, and a leap towards a target, this frightening hiss causes the target to resist vs Fear with a DC 14.
Throat Bite
It leaps goes for the throat, causing immediate 2d8 damage. It can only do this if the throat is in range (the target is sitting or laying on the ground or is crouched or crawling). The target must make a CON save DC 14 or have its jugular torn apart. The target will bleed out in three rounds and must roll a Death Save vs DC 14 every round thereafter unless they receive medical aid (DC 14 to treat).
