Behavior[]
Kroads are very dangerous and aggressive predators that were mutated from Metroid and various types of animals that were on the BSL. The Alpha Kroad is the young hunter of the Kroad species and the one who does the scavenging for the Kroad hive-cities and the Queen Kroad. Kroads tend to be more social than solitary and also territorial.
Kroad saliva has highly caustic properties and also it can be corrosive to rock and metal making it easy for them to tunnel through any solid material.
Social Structure[]
The Kroads are categorized into the following from Kroad hatchling, Alpha Kroad, Beta Kroad, Delta Kroad, Gamma Kroad, Zeta Kroad, Omega Kroad, Queen Kroad.
- Alpha Kroads or Guard Kroads, are mostly found tracking predators or enemies to drain of energy or take back to the Queen Kroad to consume. Also, Alpha Kroads are soldiers who guard the Queen against rival Kroads from trying to mate with her.
- Beta Kroads or Drone Kroads, are weaker than Alpha Kroads and act as breeders and fathers to the Queen's offspring. They're not the fighting kind and don't have any natural defenses against predators. Therefore they're killed by the Queen after they breed.
- Delta Kroads or Soldier Kroads is more like an elite group of soldier Kroads who fends off the predators and rival Kroad hives. Delta Kroads has a strong sense of direction and smell and can find their prey from miles away from the hive-city.
- Gamma Kroads or Grenadier Kroads serves as the artillery of the Kroad hive-cities. They hurl an acidic ball of matter that can disintegrate an enemy within seconds.
- Zeta Kroads or Slasher Kroads, are armed Kroads with two spikes on their backs and a huge horn on their forehead that act as a ramming device in battle. Also, they're the only Kroads that possess the nuclei of a Metroid.
- Omega Kroads or Noble Kroads, are the offspring of the Queen Kroad and are the strongest of all Kroads. Also, they are the second largest of the species before the Queen Kroad.
- Kroad Drone, the weakest of the Kroad species and often used for mating with the Queen Kroad.
