StarCraft (video game)/Characters: Difference between revisions

** Reinforced if one can spot without distracting himself from the hot action {{spoiler|her "Don't give up, Jim." message}} during the final mission by the time {{spoiler|the Xel'Naga artifact}} is nearly at full charge; {{spoiler|her avatar during this brief line is that of her human self}}.

* [[Knife Nut]]: Before and after her transformation, she's damn good with knives. Only afterwards, they become part of her ''body''. They don't call her the "Queen of Blades" for nothing.

* [[Meaningful Name]]: "Sarah" means princess or a woman of noble stature, and "Kerrigan" means dusky or dark. According to [[Word of God]], Kerrigan was named after Nancy Kerrigan, who at the time was involved in a feud with Tonya Harding, back when she was just a throwaway character before her character was expanded. So while the meaningful name is coincidence, it still certainly fits.

* [[More Than Mind Control]]: Kerrigan is legitimately mind-controlled, but once she gets out of it, she realizes [[Evil Feels Good|she ''likes'' being evil]], and decides to become the supreme leader of the Swarm and cripple all the other factions at the same time, although her motives for this are not clear. It is hinted in the [[All There in the Manual|manual]] that the process of infestation 'binds' the infested creature to the Swarm, implying that even after the death of the Overmind, Kerrigan could not truly be 'free' from the Zerg. Fan speculation suggests that {{spoiler|the Overmind ''wanted'' Kerrigan to take over the Swarm after its demise. Starcraft 2 confirms this, making the Overmind a... good guy?}}
