Grognar's body goes limp, his skin losing its warmth and color, as though the very essence of life has drained from him. The air around him grows heavy with regret, faintly shimmering with the weight of his past. His heart appears still, but a slow, steady pulse begins to return as his wounds heal unnaturally fast, a haunting reminder that death cannot claim him

You gain the following benefits at all times.
If you would take an Injury that would kill you, you don’t die. Instead, you survive in an Incapacitated state, though you appear dead to any means of detecting life. This state lasts for the next hour, at which point you fully return to life. Unstabilized Injuries do not degrade while you are Incapacitated
If, while you are unconscious, your wound level rises above your rating in Body + Brawn, or if you take an Injury with Severity greater than your rating in Brawn, you die. After you return, the Injury that would have killed you, as well as any Injuries sustained while Incapacitated, are healed. Battle scars obtained during this time remain.
Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: Old Age (Forgetful).
Xenomorphs operate in hives made of a resin they produce, mixed up with their saliva fluids. The Queen can be generated in more than one way: from specialized royal facehuggers, or maturing from Praetorians, which in turn can mature from Drones or Warriors; by a process referred as 'molting'. Judging from the condition that any Xenomorphs can potentially 'molt' and grow into a Praetorian and then a Queen, the Xenomorph species is likely all unisexual and reproduces asexually by a process called parthenogenesis: a reproductive method practiced by many species on Earth and other planets.

Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see Vaelith releases saliva from their gaping maw, and their dorsal tube separate and slip, leaking out their own mucal discharge.
