Chapter 1: A Mutually Beneficial Agreement There was an undercurrent of worry among the Nerazim of Shakuras. Millenia of isolation was shattered without warning. Aiur had fallen, and the secret refuge of the Dark Templar now became a haven for the Khalai. But it wasn’t the arrival of their old...

Magic, science, evolution, whatever you call it almost all living things and a shocking number that do not live that do not live have consistently sought to improve themselves in the face of adversity, weather that adversity be in the form of the environment, a hostile force, or any number of...

OoC Thread "Dearest Helena: By now, the news of our defeat has reached the Earth. The creatures we were sent here to tame are un-tamable, and the colonies we were sent to reclaim have proven to be stronger than we anticipated. Whatever you may hear about what has happened out here, know this...

"Once again I stand atop the broken bodies of my enemies... – Victorious but not unscarred. – The Earth–borne Directorate has been destroyed. – And the Overmind lies dead and trampled beneath the ashes of Char. – As for my unlikely allies, I think that I shall allow them a reprieve. – For in...

In the beginning, there was nothing. The vast expanse of space was strung along like a blanket of stars, hiding the cold and harsh realities of the universe. Then, there was The Swarm. Harbingers of death and destruction, bringing with it tides of spines, acid, and claws. The Swarm was a...

Where am I? It was warm. Dark. Everything around me looked like the inside of a human mouth, with pink folds and ooze dripping from the walls. Arches rose from the sides and above, with a singular purple crystal glowing to my right. From that crystal came immense power, enough that I felt...

They couldn’t keep this prisoner in a normal cell. He would be murdered or he would become an inspiration to the others and Valerian couldn’t decide which would be worse. What he and Horner had settled on, in the end, was to disappear him. A luxurious apartment on the thirty fourth floor of a...

I'm a Starcraft fan who is disgusted with Blizzard's abysmally bad writing. I got it into my head to brainstorm a rip-off in the same vein as Atrox or StarFront (or, for that matter, Warhammer 40,000 which heavily inspired Starcraft). I'm posting here because I'm interested in bouncing ideas...

???: The Technician was pleased. While it, unfortunately, couldn’t -and wouldn’t- simulate anything- unlike the uncaring monsters destroying life in the multiverse it was charged with caring for- it did have a more comprehensive understanding of existence than even the Entities that had drawn...

Authors Note: I really wanted to work on another story besides Winning Through Numerical Superiority. So I made a Zergling Insert into the Halo Universe since I’m obsessed with that. Well, I woke up on a world, that wasn’t my own. As the only living thing there. I wasn’t even in my own body...

Original Fic: Lakes of Green [Primal Zerg SI] AN: I wrote the first version of this 4 years ago. I was young, foolish, and looking for something to fill the boredom of a rainy day. I eventually lost interest, then forgot about it. It's back, and on SV instead of SB. With better writing (I...

Following up on the great success of our ad-hoc SC2 tournament yesterday, during the town-hall, here we go with Part II! I will be streaming it on Twitch below: If you want to participate, SC2 is free to play. Choose the Americas server and in the chat bar at the bottom right of the...

Enter the Swarm The battle for Char has been won. General Warfield is no more, his remaining forces forced to evacuate, their survival only guaranteed because of the Queen’s mercy. The zerg spread out across the surface, hive clusters growing as they go. Minerals are mined, vespene gas...

Chapter One: Hello World! Recording: First Awakening The first thing I felt when I woke up was a lack of feeling, not as in emotions but in pressure, temperature, motion, heck I couldn't even feel the individual fibers of my hair or the power behind my muscles. It was disconcerting to not feel...

The Scoundrels last chance - "I made a deal with the devil, Jimmy, she dies. I go free."...

It’s Thanksgiving. Not that you have a lot to be thankful for. Your dad is still moping in your house, having completely forgotten about celebrating Thanksgiving. You can’t really blame him; he did find a lot of jobs for the Dockworkers Association around this time, and is exhausted from it...

What would be your first thought if you went to bed one night, perfectly normal in your home, and the next morning you woke up, you found yourself in a strange place, with your perfectly normal human body replaced with a huge mass of quivering flesh? At least, that’s what it seems like at...

Hello to the people who are reading this (I don’t know why you would, there’s probably better things you could do with your lives). This will be a Let’s Play of Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty. Before we dig in, a few setup-related things: 1. This is not a blind let’s play. I’ve played Starcraft...

A recurring problem with scifi stories I’ve seen in the past twenty years, particularly in triple-A video games, is the inclusion of incongruous and poorly written fantasy elements that grow out of control and take over the plot at the expense of better writing. I first saw this in Starcraft...

Remade, rebranded, restory'd. Let's go, pals. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX In the beginning, there was nothing. Then, there was The Swarm. In your lifetime, The Swarm was a ravenous, voracious horde. Led by the Overmind, The Swarm conquered entire solar systems in mere days by a...

Greetings readers, For some time now, i have been playing with an idea of mine. The story would be more or less aligned with main LOK canon with few derails (heaviest would be in 3rd and 4th book onwards). Few chapters here and there would be completely new. I do not want to diverge too much...

AN: This is a RP/kinda council (as there are NPCs in the same town as you). This first post anyone can vote on, and determines the setting. I will not be putting a limit on how many players can join unless I feel it gets out of hand. In this Roleplay I will be making videos for fight scenes...

Chapter 1 - New Beginnings Cold... why was my room so cold? My bed felt softer than usual, and the breeze from my fan felt like it was on high or something. These were the first thoughts that came to me as I struggled to fully regain consciousness, trying to shake off the vestiges of sleep in...

It's... dark. Darker than the void you had experienced for what felt like centuries. You remember the Overmind's covenant to his Cerebrates. If ever your flesh failed you, your flesh would be made anew. This was so since the beginning of the Swarm, and you feel glee when you realize that the...
