Zekis

Zekis are a fictional species from the "StarCraft" universe, primarily appearing in the "StarCraft II" expansion, "Legacy of the Void." They are a nomadic, insectoid race known for their psionic abilities and their hive-mind structure. Zekis hail from the planet Shakuras, a world they were forced to abandon due to a catastrophic solar flare event. This exodus led them to become wanderers in the void between stars.

Physically, Zekis are characterized by their segmented bodies, chitinous exoskeletons, and multiple limbs. They communicate and coordinate through a powerful psionic network, allowing for instantaneous communication and complex strategic maneuvers. Their society is highly communal, with individuals subservient to the collective will of the hive.

In "Legacy of the Void," the Zekis play a crucial role in the Protoss campaign. They offer aid and sanctuary to the Protoss, sharing their knowledge and resources in the fight against the encroaching forces of the Void. Their unique psionic powers and their resilience in the face of adversity make them a significant, albeit often mysterious, presence in the StarCraft lore. Their motivations are generally aligned with survival and the preservation of their kind, and they possess a deep understanding of the forces that threaten the galaxy.
