Free Zerg
After years of research the Moebius foundation cuts Dr. Jacob's funding on DNA manipulation to control a generation of lab spawned zerg units to make them docile. The foundation finds Dr. Jacob's project to not be cost effective and would rather find a way to weaponize units or to develop a virus that would kill and effect the zerg only.
Angry at the decision to discontinue his life work Jacob's goes nuts. And alters his DNA by splicing it with the DNA of the Overmind amd exposing it slightly to what he belives is a clone of the virus Kerrigen was exposed to. In his insaneity he sees he would do the galaxy a favor by developing a hive mind and control a swarm of zerg and Destroy his former employer...
He succeeds and goes on a rampage...
A hero steps in to defeat Jacob and his modified swarm.... or Jacob And his Units go postal on Moebius, the Dominion, UED, Raynors raiders' or whom ever else tries to get in your way....
Your transformation warps your mind and you believe that you must purge all of the imperfect organisms from the universe...
1-3 or 1-4 players, don't know if this will be done at all, will change the cloning thing eventually, New to SC2 GE (though i did use W3WE a bit) so tips are welcome. will post if i run into problems
Special Thanks To _ MichaelKnives >>> For a more workable plot!
Wow, i haven't played SC1 but i like your ideas! However i did mean they did not take a dna sample, They left with theres, so that the larva would grow up into modified zerg and so forth. But i will You use your plot if that's okay with you ^^
A simpler plot would be. The Moebius foundation cuts Jacob's funding on DNA manipulation to control a generation of lab spawn zerg units to make them docile. The foundation finds Jacob's project to not be cost effective and would rather find a way to weaponize units or to develop a virus that would kill and effect the zerg only.
Angry at the decision to discontinue his lifes work Jacob's goes nuts. And alters his DNA by splicing it with the DNA of the Overmind or something so in some sick twisted way he could develop a hive mind and control a swarm of zerg or whatever so he could go nutz on his former employer... he suceeds and goes on a rampage...
Unnamed hero steps in to defeat zergafied Jacob's or you play Jacob's and go postal on Moebius, the Dominion, UED, Raynors raiders... or whom ever else tries to get in your way.... your transformation warps your mind and you believe that you must purge all of the imperfect organisms from the universe...
UED in the SC1 controlled the zerg and tried to use them as a bio weapon. The tech to semi-control zerg units had been some what perfected. It sound's like you are setting up this map to be a zerg vs. the mobious foundation.
My suggestions...
I would develop the story using a hive mind mentality. i.e. Have your scientist create a zerg human hybrid... that is sentient. Use a colonist or prisoner and give them zerg abilities like domination or something or the ability to summon or spawn certain zerg units... You should have a female & male hybrid... perhaps the male is seeking the female because the specimen was taken by the mobius foundation for study in a raid as opposed to being killed. Thusly the zerg/human hybrid, that constantly develops his/her psionic powers and abilities, goes of on a quest to find its mate.
i mean really if the scientist finds a means to control the zerg and is murdered and the tech is stolen or something wouldn't they revert... and I don't understand... jacob's found funding somewhere else to develop his bio engineering and is mudered and the zerg are intelligent enough to steal a sample as opposed to breeding with each other to perpetuate the altered DNA or did Jacobs escape the raid and plans to destroy the Moebius foundation or perhaps because he was fired he develops the dna altering mechanism or whatever to build a zerg army that he can control....
