[[File:T5ETrygon.jpg|right|250px220px|thumb|A '''Trygon''' in action.<sup>1</sup>]]'''Trygons''' are huge [[Tyranid]] creatures, similar to giant [[Ravener]]s. ==Overview==
A '''Trygon''' is a monstrous serpentine species of [[Tyranid]] capable of tunneling through just about any material - carving out underground tunnels that can be used by other Tyranid creatures to bypass enemy lines. For the enemies of a Trygon, an attack from below is incredibly hard to detect and even harder to defend against. The emergence of a Trygon will often herald a larger Tyranid attack as hordes of smaller creatures pour out after it using the freshly created tunnel.<sup>1</sup>
A Trygon is also heavily armoured in shifting carapace plates that generate a bio-static charge as the creature moves. This energy can be channeled into a sudden powerful arc that is strong enough to kill by exhaling an ionised spray from its gills.<sup>1</sup>
