Defiler mound

Template:SC1StructBox The defiler mound is a zerg structure which provides the genetic template for the larva to morph into defilers. The mound itself is a pool of cancerous soup strewn with a tangled mess of twisted biological rejects. The mound is so poisonous that mineral chunks around a mound are tainted with the essence of the Defiler itself. The defiler genetic code can also undergo evolution here to provide the defiler with abilities like Plague, Consume and Metasynaptic Nodes (more energy).
