An '''Exocrine''' is a large [[Tyranid]] creature bred for long range fire support. Its forelimbs are fused together to form a skeletal platform for a powerful bio-cannon that fires high velocity chitin shells with a silicon-based penetrator core. The bio-cannon is powered by a sudden surge of muscle contractions starting in the creature's head frill combined with an electromagnetic boost from adapted nerve bundles.<sup>1</sup>
