Slivan, the Eternal Mother was one of the primal zerg pack leaders of Zerus. She was described as "hollow and destructive" by Zurvan.

of the fight against Slivan in Heart of the Swarm.

Slivan's in game model would be a welcome addition to the HotS roster as there are relatively few "non-humanoid" heroes. Swarm Hosts have a very distinct and unique character design that would add a lot of flavor to the game.

Slivan would be played in a similar fashion to Sgt. Hammer in that she would prefer to root herself in one position and remain protected while she decimates the battlefield. However, one defining feature of Slivan's playstyle is that her "basic attack" consists of continuously spawning " Creepers " from her back. Creepers are a sort of mix between Locusts and Banelings. Instead of simply being fired like a projectile they move along the ground towards a target at about the same movement speed as heroes. Think of them as slow moving heat-seeking missiles that explode upon the first enemy they hit.
