The Shivitiri are a eusocial race of space faring feral creatures devoid of technology. Their means of transportation are organic. They are lead by the Hive Mind, an advanced High Queen of their race, They can communicate using strange mental signals that are still yet to be completely understood by most other sentient races. Unlike the Zerg, their buildings are not organic. They live in termite-like earthen mounds of natural materials found in their environment. Further unlike the Zerg they do not "assimilate" other races and are somewhat negotiable yet highly aggressive.
