: Ummm... Why would the most strong be males. In fact many,
: many species have larger and more dominant/aggressive
: females because they protect the young and scavenge
: for food. Myrks could be operating on a sort of
: "hive" like thing. The Myrk Giants are
: female with a bunch of weaker males running around.
: Every so often an egg in eutero somehow becomes a
: queen. When this baby is born (I'm assuming that they
: live-birth since they appear to be mammals), it's
: raised until it gets a bit too big, then takes off on
: its own to found another pack. Soulblighter could have
: easily kept this instict in check however, so thus we
: see the Myrk Giants working together. It's also
: generally assumed that they are smarter, so perhaps he
: just told them, "don't steal eachother's males
: and there'll be a lot in store for you if I win."
: As for the non-breeding thing. Why on earth would SB do
: something like that? I mean I admit that he's not too
: smart of a fellow, but why would he want get rid of
: the race he won with. It seems a much better plan to
: have around in case the light ever rises again.
: Anyway, I'm getting a bit too cloe to Myrk sex for my own
: comfort so I'll leave you at that.

Yeah that sounds about right. I think that the 'queen' might just be the product of a very certain combination of genes or genetic mutation that just occurs very rarely. I was thinking about this and another question arose, why do the myrkridia wear loincloths? They're heartless brutal carnovores, why do they bother to cover themselves up? I know Bungie just did it because of decency issues but I still think it's an interesting question.
