Biophagus

A Biophagus is a Genestealer hybrid who acts as a medicae and biomedical scientist for the Genestealer Cults and specialises in perverse genetic engineering and bio-alchemy using Tyranid DNA. Their primary role is to determine new ways to spread and adapt the Genestealer Curse to the needs of the cult. In conflict, these scientist-surgeons can use injector goads to enhance the unholy might of Aberrants and other favoured cultists, or to dose enemies with a mutagenic cocktail that rapidly dissolves them from within. Coupled with hurled vials of bio-acids, this arsenal renders the Biophagus a deadly agent of biological warfare. A master of gene-manipulation and bio-alchemy, the Biophagus is responsible for industrialising the processes of indoctrination and infection for a Genestealer Cult.
