The Paramorph King, paramorphs are parasitic organisms that start off in a snake-like larval stage and feed off of a host's fat cells before bursting out of their host's chest cavity. After that they go through several molts and tend to resemble and sound like their host. Paramorph patriarchs are paramorphs that have evolved for the sole purpose of breeding and protecting the hive, they are larger and far stronger than regular paramorphs.
