two wings projecting from near the end.
Description
The Mutalisk has been little changed from its original
form, the roving Mantis Screamer of the desolate Dinares Sector.
Capable of both atmospheric and deep space flight, Mutalisks are the
primary flying force of the Zerg. It is not known how they are capable
of maneuvering through a vacuum, or even of controlled flight within an
atmosphere, but they have been able to stand toe-to-toe (so to speak)
against Wraith fighters along the Coreward border worlds
Combat
The Mutalisk produces and projects much smaller, voracious
creatures that rapidly fly between enemy targets as it disintegrates
explosively. These voracious symbiotes rapidly slice their way through
opposing forces.
Ricochet Glave (Ex):
This attack has a range increment of 300 feet. Each time a glave wurm
attack successfully strikes a target, the
mutalisk may make an immediate ranged attack against any other target
within 50 ft. Each extra attack after the first one suffers a
cumulative -2 penalty.
