Ultimaton

Ultralisk Hero Concept

Ever wondered what it would look like if someone gave an angry mountain legs and giant scissors?

Ultralisks are some of the most terrifying Zerg lifeforms that Terrans have encountered. Standing taller and weighing more than most buildings, growing armor capable of shrugging off Siege Tank shells and literally ignoring Gauss Rifle rounds, able to tunnel through solid ground at nearly highway speeds, and swinging blades capable of cleaving through just about anything in a single swing, these behemoths can seem like unstoppable killing machines.
But those are merely your typical Ultralisks.

Ultimaton is no typical Ultralisk.

Ultimaton is one of the newer, more advanced strains of Ultralisk. Its armor is even further enhanced, allowing it to grow or shed additional armor on the spot as needed, and it has the capability to evolve into both the Caustic and Torrasque strains of Ultralisk.

Noxious Ultralisks emit a caustic mix of acidic fumes and infectious microbes in a cloud around them wherever they go, corroding away at everything in their environment, biological and mechanical alike. The more evolved Caustic Ultralisks, such as Ultimaton is capable of developing into, will even release bursts of this mixture in a liquid form whenever they flex major muscle groups. And, unlike even other Caustic Ultralisks, the microbes in the aerosol mixture also live in a symbiotic relationship with Ultimaton, repairing its damaged tissues.

Torrasque Ultralisks turn an Ultralisk's normal durability up beyond 11. Able to shrug off any normal mortal wounds and simply enter a cocoon to rapidly reconstitute and regenerate their flesh, these monsters go from seemingly unkillable to actually unkillable -- if you put it down, it'll just get right back up.
