Hive: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 00:24, October 16, 2013

Template:Species Infobox The Hive is one of the races encountered among the ruins of humanity's Golden Age. For reasons unknown, the Hive was buried deep within the core of Earth's moon for centuries, all the while growing stronger.^[1] After the Fall, they emerged from the moon's depths, constructing a massive, fortified aperture known as the "Hellmouth" to serve as the base of their attacks.

Biology

Members of the Hive appear to be uniformly pale, sinewy and skeletal in appearance. All castes lack visible eyes, although some have been seen with glowing patterns that resemble eyes.

Several varieties exist: a roughly human-sized variant, known as a "Thrall", a somewhat larger version known as a "Knight"^[2] and a larger, vaguely feminine variant with elaborate armor and ornamentation. Judging from the "Hive" moniker, this variant may represent some leader or "queen" caste.

Additionally, a Hive mini-boss, named "Phogoth" appears as an objective in a mission given to players.^[2]

Trivia

Prior to their name being officially announced at the 2013 GDC, they were referred to as "evil space zombies".^[3]
