Presumably, the centipede was venomous, and the snake wasn't...

The centipede, in "Alien"-speak, would be an EVERYTHING-hugger...

Also in "Alien"-speak -- since the Alien embryos apparently acquire characteristics from the host body, there presumably have been (or could be) canoe-headed creatures with dreadlock-like hair or tentacles running around in the A-V-P universe. But would the Alien Predator have the giant mandibles with fangs of the Predators or the extendable tongue-with-fangs of the Aliens? A combination of both?

(Okay, Lester -- get out your new colored pencils and try to draw THAT.)
You can't wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club.
