Broods featured in StarCraft
Baelrog Brood The Baelrog Brood consists of the most fearsome of all Zerg warriors. Ravenous and bloodthirsty to the extreme, the Baelrog Brood is often called upon by Gorn to sow terror and confusion among enemy ranks. The Brood manages to make even other Zerg uncomfortable, as it is not only known for its savage battle tactics, but also for its voracious cannibalism. The Baelrog are bred and trained to attack without hesitation, mercy or self-consideration. Terror is a pronounced state of fear, an overwhelming sense of imminent danger. ...

Fenris Brood The Fenris Brood's role is to systematically hunt down and eliminate opponents of the Zerg Swarm.

Garm Brood Lead by the cunning Cerebrate Zasz, the Garm Brood is part of the Zerg Swarm's main attack wing, along with numerically far superior Jormungand and Surtur broods. The brood makes up for its relatively small numbers by employing guerrilla tactics, including surprise attacks and frequent raids. It is known both for its extreme ferocity and the speed at which it attacks. This brood was supposedly destroyed by the Jormungand Brood after the death of Zasz on Char, but in Starcraft: Brood War, the Brood appears again under a new Cerebrate on Shakuras. This new Cerebrate is also killed, but a third appears on Char. It too is killed, and presumably there is a fourth in the wake of the third Cerebrate's death. As well, a portion of the Brood is controlled by Alan Schezar via yet another Cerebrate in Enslavers. Zasz is a Zerg Cerebrate and the leader of the Zerg Garm Brood in the StarCraft universe. ...
