The Zerg

What little is known about these biological terrors has been pieced together from log entries, sensor records, and debris. It is clear that they have little or no use for technology as we know it, but whether the living ships and weapons they deploy are biological constructs or indeed merely alternate forms of the central species itself has yet to be determined. Few signs of intelligence have been observed other than a marked propensity for cruelty, but this evidence is far from conclusive. As yet, all attempts at non-military contact have been entirely futile. Terran scientists theorize that the Zerg (Protoss: "Consuming, unstoppable") are bioengineered weapons. Their natural defenses are simply too powerful to have evolved normally, even on the most hostile of planets. Forensic evidence shows that the large blade-like claws on one species (hydralisk) have a razor-sharp edge and a toughness matched only by modern composite materials. This brings up the question of who created the Zerg, and whether they are being controlled by another race. Locations that the Zerg have inhabited become infested by a thick, living substance dubbed "the Creep". Sources have hinted that evidence of Zerg "nests" or "hives" within the Creep have also been found, and it is hoped that the examination of an intact hive might reveal more about their origin and purpose.
