The basis of any Xenomorph hive; the Drones are very much like worker bees or ants. Their main tasks are to keep the hive in good condition. Also, they seem to have the job of creating their nests with their own secretions. They have the basic body build of the Warrior, except that their dome is completely smooth, whereas the Warrior's dome is typically more ridged. Drones are smaller and somewhat more delicate than the Warriors, not considered quite as dangerous, but striking fear into the heart of any Human.
Like all of their brethren, they have acidic body fluids, but only the Drone can spit this secretion onto prey over a short distance. Drones have an organ in their bodies that releases a sticky fluid that they can spit out of their mouth onto any surface. It can be used to harvest cocooned hosts for the Queen's facehuggers.

Skunk doesn't need to.
Years of all-nighters have finally paid off, so much so that she can't seem to keep herself from pulling them... She tells herself that she's a night owl, but she's a little more than that.

Skunk's sleeplessness paradoxically increases her ability to recall any facts or information that she has come into contact with. No matter how long ago she read it, the information is locked in like a steel trap. In addition, when she focuses her mental energy to a task, she finds herself easily pushing beyond her limits, ignoring even the most harsh of injuries or stressors.
Unfortunately, this newfound ability has not done much for her social skills, as the know-it-all inside of her has come forward in force. Even so, her twitter hot takes seem to gather more and more of an audience, regardless of how insufferable she's become.
