hasn't durran been infested or taken over or something? i mean he was normal... but i mean hes not now..


He said Kerrigan wasnt smart enough or something. So he is pretending to be infested. I dont think he is human at all D:

Well I remember that when Zeratul asks Duran if the "hybrid" experiments are under Kerrigan's orders he's like:
"Pfft Kerrigans a noob."

I'm guessing that Duran is simply a Xel Naga agent or a surviving Xel Naga.

He can't be zerg because of his age, Wasn't he alive before their creation? He implies that in his speech with Zeratul.

Here lies logic, somewhere in this thread. May we all take our hats off in remembrance.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

I dont see anyone asking this but ... what if Xel'Naga went to earth and fucked a lot of monkeys before going to other places to create the zerg/toss?

The Dark Templar Trilogy is CANON. What they say they are in that book, they are. There's no more room for speculation. Is this really that hard to get?

Uh, I don't think the Xel Naga is a human race. Maybe you are confusing them with the Ancients in the Stargate universe?

The medics and valkyries and charon boosted goliaths you know are UED aka "forces of themotherplanet". Is that argument good enough proof of this theory being bad?

Meaning women are the new technology from the mother planet.

I can't believe I just read all 3 pages of this thread. I feel like I've lost some braincells. I can easily tell that a majority of you do not know shit all about Starcraft's lore. Ugh...

just thinking the same thing but a little differently
what if...

a SINGLE terran was making the zerg and the protoss race
he made the protoss prototype (X'el Naga) and it stole the zerg specimin making it
hostile and then they made the overmind.
then they needed a race to treat them as gods so they made the neww protoss
but they backfired and now the terran is mad and...

(could be spoiler alert)

he kills kerragin and is the Zerg Master


any thoughts? thx 4 reading

Unfortunately, someone else tried to GG this thread with the same thing that was taken from the exact same book with more depth than yours. And still, others don't exactly comply with his ideas, so why should they listen to you? Next time, skim the pages of the thread before posting, just incase you find redundancy.

Duran never was a Terran- he was playing the UED, making them think he was one.

Duran never was a Zerg- this time, he manipulated Kerrigan. To what end, I do not know- though it's pretty obvious that when he mysteriously vanishes for the final zerg mission in brood wars, it's because she's stopped being useful to him.

Duran may be a Xel'Naga, or maybe some kind of primal enemy to them. Anything else just wouldn't make sense.

it's not that you don't comply, it's that you're all too stupid to understand what fucking canon is.

The idea really sounds M. Night Shyamalan like, I really doubt that the Xel Naga are actually the Terrans. Sure you could write it in like after they were attacked by the Zerg the Xel Naga escaped to Earth and blah blah blah. But I hope it doesn't end up like that.
