About: Queen (StarCraft)   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

On the battlefield, one of the queen's primary functions was to implant parasites in its enemies. Able to be launched from a distance, a tiny, remora-like parasite attached itself to the target, 'bonding' with it should the target be organic. The parasite allowd higher zerg strains to see whatever the host saw and at the time of its first use in the Koprulu sector, could not be removed without killing its host. The parasite can also provide a link for the zerg to "talk" to the host.

abstract
  • On the battlefield, one of the queen's primary functions was to implant parasites in its enemies. Able to be launched from a distance, a tiny, remora-like parasite attached itself to the target, 'bonding' with it should the target be organic. The parasite allowd higher zerg strains to see whatever the host saw and at the time of its first use in the Koprulu sector, could not be removed without killing its host. The parasite can also provide a link for the zerg to "talk" to the host. With the arrival of the United Earth Directorate in the Koprulu sector however and the introduction of nano-conveyed anesthetic and attenuated laser technology they brought with them, the parasites could be safely removed if detected by medics. However, by 2503 at least some parasites could not be detected by terran technology. The queen can also infest other creatures, causing them to expire and broodlings to emerge from them. It takes time for the queen to produce these creatures, though the rate of reproduction was able to be increased through the use of gamete meiosis. In the meantime, the queen is able to spray its victims with a thick mucus, slowing them down drastically before dissolving. Most feared of the queen's abilities however, is its ability to produce parasitic bio-toxins. Once released onto a structurem these toxins quickly infest the facility, bringing the structure and those inside it under the control of the zerg. The only safeguard against this ability was that the structure had to be in a state of disrepair before the toxins could be deployed.
