Starcraft Factions – Jormungand

Jormungand

Cerebrate: Araq
Estimated Size: 3,000,000/all tribes
Primary Role: Support Unit
Breed Color: Crimson

The Jormungand Brood is one of the Zerg’s most potent attacking powers. These fighters are usually deployed after Garm’s preparatory surprise attacks, nipping any further resistance to the swarm in the bud. Jormungand relies on numerical superiority and brute force to take down any enemy, and excels at ground combat and head-to-head one-on-one combat.

Zerg Races

Little is known about the various races that make up Zerg swarms. Terran scientists have begun to document and classify some of the larger races that have ravaged their colonies. What seems clear is that each particular race/breed is descended from a unique Cerebrate that carries out the commands of the Overmind. Each cerebrate has the power to its own brood to carry out its tasks. While it is difficult to distinguish one brood from another, Terran scouts believe they have found that they vary in functionality and purpose. It is considered proven that certain races work so closely together as if they were intertwined extensions of a larger tactical force. Terran researchers have given the races names of monsters from ‘ancient Earth’ mythology.
