The following article or section contains lore from the StarCraft RPG, which is not regarded as canon. Elements may be regarded as 'flavor lore' however.

Mutates are infested terrans subjected to nanite treatments which restored or preserved their intelligence. However, their appearance and sanity left something to be desired - the nanites were all that kept them from reverting to their zerg instincts. These mutates are armed with sharp claws and have a spine-hurling organ in the chest.^[1]

HistoryEdit

A terran force defeated a small zerg brood and captured it during the Brood War. Mixing zerg and terran genes, bioengineers forged a small number of mutates to use against the zerg. They ended up in the service of the Alliance.^[1]

Similar experiments were conducted by remnants of the Confederacy.^[2]

Known MutatesEdit

• Morik (similar treatment and intelligence)
• Sistask
