"Infest them. They will serve as willing servants for the Swarm!"
This sadistic Hunter-class Zerg warrior was created with the Queen prototype by Zargil, and her role extends beyond overseer of the Hive Cluster. Her special ability is the creation of special Broodlings which she can use to remotely control an individual's thoughts.
Parakas has an obsessive desire to control everything through her infestation techniques. She particularly hates anything that tries to resist her control, often destroying them in the process in order to remain in the illusion of total control. In particular she is frustrated in being a servant herself, and tries to indulge herself as much as possible.
When the Fenris Brood's new Hunter-class Zerg showed promising success Zargil wasted no time in devising his own Hunter-class Zerg-- Parakas was the first successful creature. However, without any specific function Zargil abandoned his attempts at creating the sophisticated agents, as the Overmind never intended for the Sennith Brood to participate in the same sort of small-scale battles. Therefore Parakas, nearly free to do as she pleased, exerted a certain degree of control over the brood.
Parakas has the full range of parasites and brood spawn available to all Queens, in addition to a special Broodling: a cyst-like Cerebral Borer. These larval organisms burrow their way through to the victim's head and place themselves in the control area. In this manner Parakas achieved her own form of Mind Control. She has nearly complete control over her puppets, and can order the Borers to hatch-- causing instant death to the puppet.
Zargil. Since Zargil is the one who created Parakas she must serve his every will... although it has been noted that she will disobey orders whenever she gets the chance. As a free spirit Parakas would like nothing better to be her own master, but knows it to be a disgusting fantasy.
Thakras. Thakras could be considered a perverted version of a younger brother to Parakas... in Terran terms. In terms of power Thakras wields more, and is the cold reason that is the foil to Parakas' deadly enthusiasm.
