Predaliens usually take on the 'dreadlocks' of their hosts, originally this was unexplained due to a lack of knowledge about the Yautja's biology but with information revealing the purpose of the host's dreadlocks, that being a sensory organ, it is likely this incorporated to make the Xenomorph more efficient at surviving. Just as human-spawned Xenomorphs are physcially superior to their hosts, Predaliens are typically physically stronger than Yautja and it would require a highly experienced and well armed Yautja to be able to stand a chance. The Warrior (or Drone)-Type Predalien is the most common type of Predalien observed. The Abomination, a 'Warrior-Type' Predalien. ' Instinctually sensing threats to the fabric of the hive-mind, the Queen hungers for stronger, more superior hosts to use in growing the new hive.' ―AVP:E, (Aliens, Campaign Three)

They have a paler skin color than most other Xenomorphs, and have been known to produce similar vocalizations to the Predators.

Predaliens are taller than both Predators and human-spawned Xenomorphs, standing around 10', and possess greater physical strength than both aforementioned species. Both the dreadlocks and mandibles have an insectoid look to them, distinguishing them in appearance from the host creature. The mandibles appear to function as extra weaponry, they are even a feature present during the chestburster stage.

Predaliens may use them similarly, being more versatile and agile than a Praetorian, a Xenomorph of similar size and, at times, similar hive-function. It is known that the Yautja dreadlocks are sensory organs, similar to whiskers, and assist with balance and reflexes. While the Predalien's physical form has varied quite widely throughout its many appearances, the most common physicality is that of a bulkier, heavier-built Xenomorph Warrior incorporating several traits taken from its Yautja host, most notably dreadlock-like appendages on the head, which tends to be less elongated than on typical Xenomorphs, and similar mandibles around the mouth. The Predalien, noticeably more robust and less skeletal than the typical Xenomorph.
