The 12 Royal Tyranid Avatars

Valmoria

Neurarch

A Neurarch is a divine neural sovereign—linked to the Hive Mind like an angel is to God. Evokes psychic command, sentient purpose, and regal hierarchy.

The Womb of Urr'thakk

A semi-living moon-sized bioship woven from bone, light, and psychic resin. "Urr'thakk" is the Valmorian term for “The Birthing Grave of Stars.” Inside, the pregnant Norn Queen Tawamíriel rests in a throne-womb of psychic coral. The ship emits signals only perceptible to psykers of extreme potential.

"The Throne of Echoes" - Earth-Based Station Built By The Young Emperor

Constructed in secret beneath the Himalayas, it is a psycho-physical amplification engine, partially organic, grown from Mars-connected Tyranid spores and human technology. The Emperor enters a stasis-pool of liquid crystal, allowing his mind to slip through the infinite memory-web of the Hive, speaking across time to Tawamíriel. Here he learns to see dark matter flows, soul shadows, and the threads of fate.
