It's not that fast, but characters without Fitness will have a hard time against it. It has three main parts: Head, Body and Tail. The Head is extremely high armor, attacks through the mouth, that is not strong, but can do lots of pain through chemicals. It can also spit acid, and it's immune to it.

The Body attacks with the four claws, doing 1-4 attacks each time. Alone, they aren't that dangerous but it's a potential threat if you are unlucky.

The Tail attacks lashing. It's a solid blow which can throw you away, giving to the Serpentine time to go spitting acid in you while it gets closer. The Tail is not that resistant, but destroying it doesn't kill the alien.

To make things worse, the Serpentine can with it's massive body destroy doors through charging. Her weak spots are the absence of vision(it senses based in proximity and feeling, as the Drones do. With a large body and charging, can pinpoint her enemies) and the Body.

I do not like it, for some reason it doesn't sound "alieny".
Existing aliens could get some/all of those attacks (tail, claws, spitting).
And why one of aliens should be bigger, more dangerous and cunning than a queen ? Thats a heresy :P !

No, for the reasons that Angles of death already mentioned.

Cyber Killer:
I'm not so sure about the new alien types ideas. I mean why create new ones when the "Alien" universe has so much of them already?

Ever thought about encountering a pack of red army aliens? ;-)

The Alien Fuzion RPG is a great source of info on the Alien universe, you can get it here: http://www.serenadawn.com/AlienRPG-Contents.htm

Eternal @:
Thanks, will start reading as soon as possible! o/

And why i thought of creating new Aliens? Well... i thought that AlienRL was a more generic RogueLike... xD *facepalm* Hm, just hope i will be able to come with a good idea for something of the beat'em up AvP for Arcade...
