Starcraft Factions – Tiamat

Tiamat

Cerebrate: Daggoth
Estimated Size: 6,500,000 / all tribes
Primary Role: Command
Fleet Brood Color: red

Tiamat is the largest and most powerful Brood race within the extended swarm. It is believed that the Overmind resides here, protected deep within this living fleet. The most evolved overlords and queens run Tiamat’s rigid infrastructure, helping to propel the less evolved races to total domination of their enemies. Tiamat excels at tactical space combat, only unleashing its aggressive surface attackers in the most extreme situations.

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.
