Weapon and Armor Proficiency:

The Swarm Leader is Classified as Living, Psionic, Hivemind

The Swarm leader is proficient with simple weapons but is prohibited to wear medium & heavy armor or shields.

A Swarm Leader who wears prohibited armor or carries a prohibited shield is unable to control the swarm or use any of her supernatural or Extraordinary class abilities while doing so and for 24 hours thereafter.

Biomass: is given by 5 biomass per hitpoint from the enemies hit dice killed and assimilated by drones. Cap is on the chart above per level. Biomass does fully generate after 8 hours of rest.

Biomass Hardening: The Swarm Leader may allocate a portion of accumulated biomass to increase her carapace. You designate the amount of biomass to allocate for the day, up to the amount of biomass accumulated. For every 20 points stowed into the carapace, she gains +1 extra natural armor. This biomass cannot be used for the next 24 hours after a 2 hour meditation period to harden the biomass in the first place to gain the benefits. At level 13, the Swarm Leader no longer needs to allocate the biomass and instead gets a +1 natural armor bonus for every 100 biomass in her storage. When spending biomass to spawn swarms or gaining biomass when killing creatures, the natural armor is recalculated.

Hivemind: All broodlings are part of a neural network. As long as two broodlings are within a 50 mile of each other, the link is not separated. Connected broodlings can see through each other's eyes at will and use other senses as if it were their own. If within 30 feet of another broodling, gain a +2 listen and spot check from the empathic link between the two. This stacks if more broodlings are within this 30-foot radius. Within this radius, if one broodling is not flatfooted, none are. If one is not flanked, then none are given the penalties associated with being flanked as if they have the all-round vision. Care thou some invention have been made to counter the swarm hivemind connection by cutting it, harming you from the inside, countering your control, contacting you, etc.

Brood Control: Allow you to control the amount of brood. Only communication to the brood is the hive mind only you can talk to them and give them order unless you allow Brood mother and Cerebrate as all communication can be heard by you. Also Brood Mother & Cerebrate can go rogue and leave your swarm or try to take control from you creating a brood war.

Power Points/Day A psion’s ability to manifest powers is limited by the power points he has available. His base daily allotment of power points is given on Table: The Psion.

Psionic Disciplines: A discipline is one of six groupings of powers, each defined by a common theme. The six disciplines are clairsentience, metacreativity, psychokinesis, psychometabolism, psychoportation, and telepathy.

-Clairsentience A psion who chooses clairsentience is known as a seer. Seers can learn precognitive powers to aid their comrades in combat, as well as powers that permit them to gather information in many different ways.

-Metacreativity A psion specializing in metacreativity is known as a shaper. This discipline includes powers that draw ectoplasm or matter from the Astral Plane, creating semisolid and solid items such as armor, weapons, or animated constructs to do battle at the shaper’s command.

-Psychokinesis Psions who specialize in psychokinesis are known as kineticists. They are the masters of powers that manipulate and transform matter and energy. Kineticists can attack with devastating blasts of energy.

-Psychometabolism A psion who specializes in psychometabolism is known as an egoist. This discipline consists of powers that alter the psion’s psychobiology, or that of creatures near him. An egoist can both heal and transform himself into a fearsome fighter.

-Psychoportation A psion who relies on psychoportation powers is known as a nomad. Nomads can wield powers that propel or displace objects in space or time.

-Telepathy A psion who chooses the discipline of telepathy is known as a telepath. He is the master of powers that allow mental contact and control of other sentient creatures. A telepath can deceive or destroy the minds of his enemies with ease.

Brood Hives(Huge): Broodlings may sacrifice themselves along with a drone for the survival of the Hive. As long as one drone is involved, and at least 15HD worth of drones are awaiting sacrifice, they may all explode into a rich genetic sludge. After three days of incubation of the sludge, a juvenile hive, hereby called the "Hatchery" would have been erected, gaining 50 hit points every day until reaching 150 hit points on the third day. This structure is immobile, non-hostile, and defenseless. The structure has an AC of 5 and a hardness of 10. The Hatchery has enough space to hold 8 medium creatures, 4 large creatures, or 2 huge creatures. Small creatures and below count as half a medium creature. Every 6 minutes, a single larva may be ejected from the Hive. This may happen indefinitely without the use of biomass until there are at most 3 larvae. Spread creep with up to 60 feet as it nourishes the Hatchling.

Lairs(Gargantuan): Upon Reaching level 12, the Hatchery may sacrifice another 30HD worth of drones to be upgraded to an adolescent hive, hereby called the "Lair". A thin membranous film will cover the Hatchery during this metamorphosis. This stage lasts for another three days, again gaining 50 hitpoints each day until reaching 300 hit points in total. Sustaining damage will delay the hatchery process as it continues to gain hitpoints until the stage is completed or the hatchery is exterminated. Once this stage is complete, the newly-emerged Lair will have a total of 300 HP, 20 hardness, and increase to the maximum number of free larvae to 6. Additionally, the Lair imbues the ground with an adhesive substance that is ignored by a zerg's carapace. Any creature touching creep that is in some way connected to the Lair is considered to be in difficult terrain. Spread creep with up to 600 feet as it nourishes the Lair.

Hives(Colossal): Gaining 18th level allows the Swarm Leader to unleash a torrent of biomass at the Lair. Sacrificing 100 HD worth of drones in a bloodbath frenzy would result in the final transformation, the coveted "Hive." Taking the longest incubation duration of one full week, the membrane once again covers the Lair and begins the metamorphosis into a matured hive, otherwise known as the "Hive." The Hive gains 100 hit points every day until reaching 1000 hit points on the seventh day. Gaining a hardness of 60, even enchanted adamantine would have difficulty scratching the protective covering. Instead of the membrane dissolving into the newly-formed structure, it hardens into a protective shield. Gaining the Reflective Carapace special quality. The Hive's armorlike carapace is exceptionally tough and highly reflective, deflecting all rays, lines, cones, and even magic missile spells. There is a 30% chance of reflecting any such effect back at the caster; otherwise, it is merely negated. Check for reflection before rolling to overcome the creature’s spell resistance. The Hive gains spell resistance 29. The armored carapace makes breaching the shell to damage the hive a nightmare. Gaining a +25 natural armor, the AC of this behemoth is 23 AC. Able to hold up to 12 larvae, a simple visit to the Hive every hour would assist in raising an army. The creep is augmented to better serve the hive. No longer merely a nutrient layer of growth, creep now bestows broodlings with the effects of Haste for as long as they are on creep connected to the hive. Spread creep with up to 1 mile as it nourishes the Hive.

Overhive(Colossal++): Upon gaining 20th level, the Swarm Leader has the decision of Prodigy. As the mental limitations of a hive mind are behind her, she may now set up autonomy in large regions of her conquered lands. Sacrificing 10 Leviathons allows for a Hive to be designated the Overhive. A structure that through intensive tunneling of drones and usage of the cavernous interiors of the Leviathons themselves allows for the Overhive to hold as many creatures as it wishes. Any creature sheltered inside the Overhive may transport one's self into another brood hive as long as it is in the same plane of existence. This ability may be used at will. The creep itself becomes gnarled and alive. Acting as effective haste for all allies, difficult terrain for enemies, and gaining barbed terrain qualifier, every five feet of movement deals 3d6+10 piercing damage. Spread creep with up to 50 miles as it nourishes the Overhive.

Kinetic Blast(Ps): At 3rd level, focusing on her psionic energy, the Swarm Leader unleashes an bolt of psionic energy dealing 1d8 per 2 Class Level damage to a single foe.

Essence Enchantment: As you gain in power, so does your swarm. This effects only her own brood as it will not apply to cerebrate & Brood Mothers. They gain a bonus to Strength, Dexterity, Hit-points, Natural Armor & Damage Reduction. Side effect they gain Fire & Electricity vulnerability, increasing damage received from Fire & Electricity by 50%.

Enchant Essence Unlock at level 2 by +1 Str & Dex, +1 HP per hit dice

Evasion: Swarm leader gain Evasion at level 4. Gain Improved Evasion at level 9. Broodlings gain evasion and improved evasion at 8th and 13th level respectively.

Mend: At 7th level, the Swarm leader erupts constantly in microscopic clouds of creep, empowering allies. Enemies must make a fortitude save based on the Swarm Leader's casting mod or take 1 acid damage for 3 turns if there within 20 feet of the Swarm Leader. All Allies heal. She gives 4d8 points of healing to herself and 2d8 points of healing to her allies within 20 feet and goes on a cool-down for 1d4 rounds.

Swarm Evolution: Allows all Zerg to evolve into deadly forms. At level 6 the Swarm Leader gain Improved Rapid Incubation brood incubation decreased by 100% when eggs are growing on Queen body. Let's all zerg unit to burrow into the ground not letting them move. Allow you to add HD per 25 biomass only at level 8. Plus 2 Ability point per HD Added at level 16.

Mental BackLash: At 8th level, focusing on the mental powers of the swarm, deal 1d6/Class level damage to a single target as a ray through a ranged touch attack. Failing a reflex save(for half), based on Charisma, stuns the target for one round. Casting this dazes the Swarm Leader for one round and she may cast this ability again in 1d6+2 rounds.

Psionic Storm(Ps): At 9th level, the Swarm Leader may create a 20 by 20 foot cube storm of psionic energy. It deals 2d6 Psionic damage plus her intelligence modifier per class level (cap 20d6) to every creature in the area. This lasts for 1 full round. Cool down for 2d12+1 Rounds. Ref save based on intelligence for half. Range 60 ft

Assimilation: At 10th level, when a powerful enemy is slain, the Swarm leader gains the ability to Assimilate enemies. This is when the Swarm Leader consumes the freshly-killed corpse, killed within 1 round/class level. She gains 2 ability points if the enemies have a higher ability score in that category if she assimilates the corpse in time. Zerg units that assimilate with the corpse gain the Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution scores of the new form but retains its own Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma scores. This effect lasts for 1 hour per hit dice of the corpse consumed but may gain one permanent inherent bonus to Str Dex & Con for each corpse (with higher attributes) assimilated. This can only increase by a maximum of the Swarm leader's Class level. Assimilation allows the brood to adapt and mimic up to four special qualities, abilities, and attacks that the zerg have consumed. For example, a leopard killed by a zergling then consumed with intent to assimilate would allow said zergling to not only take the pounce, rake and improved grab special attacks, but also gain the physical ability scores of the leopard (Str 16, Dex 19, Con 15) for 3 hours (as it has 3 HD) and after reverting back to the base zergling form, the leopard's special qualities are kept and the zergling may gain a +1 to his Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution as an inherent bonus if the inherent bonus is lower than the Swarm Leader's Class level. The assimilation process is imperfect. Only four special qualities may be mimicked at one point and it takes 24 hours of metamorphosis to replace traits. Also they can sacrifice themself to evolve the traits into the swarm once more then 5 have the same trait.

Leader Chrysalis Transformation At 11th, Also Swarm leader goes into a Chrysalis cocoon transforming them more of insectoid carapace forming on there body giving them +5 Natural Armor, fast healing 5 out of combat. Cant wear any armor or use any weapons, Gain Natural attck Claws 1d8, Talons Wings 1d6. this take 1d12 hours, while swarm does protect and will become hostiles when non- swarm come close

Zerg Reconstitution: At 12th level, Destroyed broodlings respawn at the hatchery designated by the Swarm leader. When this ability is activated, up to 10 freshly-killed broodlings (within 1 round per class level) may reappear at the hatchery. Broodlings killed beyond the 10th death count toward next usage(s) of the ability. If designated hatchery is destroyed, the timer continues from another available hatchery. Broodlings will not respawn if maximum brood control has been reached. Banelings will not respawn. This ability may be used once per hour.

Parasitic Infestation: at 14th Level, The Swarm leader can create a parasite that infest the target. The target make a Fort save (10 + 1/2 Hit Dice + Cha). If the target fails they they become infested at a rapid pace. 1d4 turns. As the target fall under the swarm leader control as they gain the infested template.

Razor Storm(Ps): At 15th level, creates a 40 by 40 foot circle of psionic energy that bypass spell resistance as it deals 1d8 per (30d8) level to every creature in the area and last 4d4 rounds and can be cast once per day. Its a will save DC Charisma base.

Wild Mutation(Ps): At level 16, the Swarm Leader may bestow the swarm with a wild frenzy. At the expenditure of 200 biomass, bestow the swarm with haste and greater resistance for one round per class level.

Fury(Ps): At 18th level, the Swarm Leader is bestowed with the rage of the Swarm. Once the Swarm Leader reaches level 18, she may activate an ability to temporarily bolster her forces' power and for an hour be bestowed with the bonuses of the spell haste. She may activate this ability once every two hours.

I Am The Swarm: At 20th level, the Swarm leader now can control an unlimited amount of broods

Apocalypse(Ps): At 20th level, the Swarm Leader may focus a Ball of Psionic energy in a 5-foot radius ball as it takes a full round action as it blows up next turn dealing 2d12 untyped damage Per level (Cap 40d12). The radius of the attack spreading from the middle point is 40 feet. Range of this psionic attack is 25 + 5 range per level. 2/ a day. Reflex for half damage DC Charisma base.

Variant Rules The DM may rightfully deem this class as overly underbalanced. As having the opportunity of holding the 5HD worth of zerglings may seem overpowered to some at level 1, a variant rule may be that the Hive would be in the background as the Queen of Blades takes two brave champions with her to assist in adventures. These will be her Battle Thralls, a necessity in protection and execution of quick commands. Treat these broodlings as animal companions for purposes of feats, spells, and effects. She may switch any of her Thralls at any time as long as a replacement is nearby.

If the Swarm Leader is slain, her essence will be yanked out of the useless carapace and brought to a random cerebrate (Roll d%, flip a coin, whatever). The Queen of Blades will be incubated until she arises anew after 2d4 weeks. During this period, the Swarm Leader may communicate telepathically to any broodmother or cerberate within 50 miles. The Swarm Leader is extremely vulnerable in this chrysalis stage, with an AC of 10, her class hit dice changed to a d4 for this duration, and losing bonuses to a high constitution score, she usually keeps her cerebrates either extremely secluded, well-defended, or both. The cerebrate that houses the new Swarm Leader cannot benefit from the effects of Greater Invisibility.
