The tlincalli's burrowing speed doubles but it takes 2 (1d4) slashing damage for every 5 feet is burrows beyond 20 feet until the end of its turn.

source Roughly one in five tlincalli are born able to feel the workings of the gods through the rumbling of the ground. These diviners act as military commanders, leading groups of at least five others in patrols and raids, and leading entire hive-city segments in worship of their pantheon. Roughly one in five diviners metamorphose into a swarmlords. Diviners partake in many rituals that outsiders typically view as strange. The most frequent of these is their tremor divination, where multiple diviners map out the grid of their eleven-sign zodiac and use their tremorsense to observe creatures unwittingly moving above it from which they draw absolute conclusions. If a military defeat is prophesied and yet a victory occurs, multiple diviners may institute a "stinger race" in which those destined to die in the battle instead choose a direction and run until they are killed in battle or drop dead from exhaustion.
