Vahaks

Vahaks are a fictional species featured in the popular video game "StarCraft II". They are an insectoid race, characterized by their chitinous exoskeletons and their unique role within the game's narrative and gameplay. Vahaks are primarily known for their connection to psionic energy and their ability to manipulate the minds of other creatures. In the lore of StarCraft II, they are often depicted as being highly intelligent and enigmatic, with their own complex society and motivations.

Gameplay-wise, Vahaks are not a playable race in the traditional sense like the Terrans, Zerg, or Protoss. Instead, they appear as non-player characters (NPCs) and are sometimes encountered in specific missions or campaign segments. Their abilities in-game often reflect their psionic nature, allowing them to influence enemy units or provide unique buffs to allied forces. The visual design of the Vahaks typically involves bioluminescent elements and a somewhat unsettling, alien appearance, emphasizing their distinctiveness from the other major races. Their limited but impactful presence in the game has made them a memorable addition to the StarCraft universe.
