Famous Monsters: Xenomorph DnD Monster Stats

Updated: Mar 11, 2023



The Xenomorphs could be an interesting encounter or you could create an entire campaign around them. Imagine an adventurer bringing an alien egg back to a wizard who gets unwittingly infected. Now his tower, full of fantastical arcane items, is abandoned. But none that have ventured there have ever returned.


Or perhaps a face huger has infected a dragon and given birth to a Alien Xenomorph/Dragon hybrid that is terrorizing a village and giving birth too an army of Aliens.


However you choose to use a Xenomorph monster in D&D, you can use these Xenomorph stats for your DnD 5e or One DnD campaign.
