Brontoliths were once large docile organisms indigenous to an unspecified homeworld. Unfortunately for all, they were discovered and subsequently absorbed into the Zerg Swarm, transmogrifying their once pristine forms into gruesomely cruel jokes of their former selves. They were now to become known as the Ultralisks, which would come to bear little resemblance to their predecessors. As with nearly all other organisms absorbed into the Zerg Swarm, they are very likely extinct, especially so if they were not sapient.

  • Brontoliths were once large docile organisms indigenous to an unspecified homeworld. Unfortunately for all, they were discovered and subsequently absorbed into the Zerg Swarm, transmogrifying their once pristine forms into gruesomely cruel jokes of their former selves.

  • The brontolith was a very large, but peacefully docile creature. A herbivore, brontoliths were born to endure. With no natural weapons other than sheer size and strength, they mostly relied on their armored skin as protection from predators. Open wounds were a common denominator throughout their existence, and viruses, bacteria, and more exotic lifeforms often made their way into the brontoliths' bloodstreams. None of these harmful organisms managed to cause any damage, however. The brontolith’s immune cells latched on to anything foreign and either destroyed or assimilated it.

  • Brontoliths were once large docile organisms indigenous to an unspecified homeworld.

  • The brontolith was a very large, but peacefully docile creature. A herbivore, brontoliths were born to endure. With no natural weapons other than sheer size and strength, they mostly relied on their armored skin as protection from predators. Open wounds were a common denominator throughout their existence, and viruses, bacteria, and more exotic lifeforms often made their way into the brontoliths' bloodstreams. None of these harmful organisms managed to cause any damage, however. The brontolith’s immune cells latched on to anything foreign and either destroyed or assimilated it. That said, the brontoliths couldn't escape assimilation by the Zerg Swarm, where they were mutated into the ultralisk. The brontoliths' genetic code was dissected, rebuilt and repurposed multiple times. Each phase of the process served to eliminate less desirable traits, as well as augment the creature’s ability to withstand severe punishment. The ultralisk now bears little resemblance to its progenitor. The existence of the brontolith is known to terrans.
