The metamorph is a hypothesized zerg breed, which would be developed by Sarah Kerrigan and Abathur.

The breed could direct its own evolution.^[1]

Game UseEdit

In StarCraft II, a zerg unit that kills 20 or more enemies is referred to as a metamorph.^[2] A powerful queen residing in the massive nydus network beneath the surface of Char was labeled a metamorph in the game.^[3]
