The Mat...The Matriarch does not control the Scrin. The Matriarch is not even relevant to the current form of the Scrin. The Matriarch is the oldest Scrin "Queen". <br /><br />When I say Queen I do not mean like in Aliens. The Queen with the Scrin work differently, they would be considered the leaders of the Scrin but not in any direct way. All Queens gather in a single location mentally and are a single entity while together. When needed the Queen can "dispatch" themselves into individual identities to go out and deal with situations that the Scrin Formen can not handle. <br /><br />Formen always have their own individual identities and have typical life spans. Queens are immortal as they are able to move their consciousness between bodies that the Scrin genetically manipulate to be hosts. When not needed the Queens gather together in a form of "higher plane" and lead the Scrin people. Queens can be killed when they are destroyed while inside a body, keep that in mind.<br /><br />The Matriarch is simply the first queen. The player in the game is something new, between the war that they are losing with the Invid and the many different levels of military power on Earth the Queen Mind has determined a true "Military Commander" is needed to deal with the situation. This is the ground basis behind the Scrin Upgrade system, the upgrades that the MC can choose from should be looked at like different queens vying for favor with the commander and offering different levels of help. <br /><br />As for the "Only the Ichor with the relay Node can make the Scrin Survive" thats total nonsense. The Scrin obviously exsisted before they found Tiberium. My story for the Scrin not only explains where they came from but how they started on their path of traveling the stars. It also explains how they became reliant on Tiberium for survival without even realizing it. Without it the Scrin traded their freedom from Tiberium for reliance to the substance and intelligence. <br /><br />I've looked at the wiki info on the Scrin. EA's Scrin will not work for our story. The idea of "They were just a mining force" is retarded on so many different levels it's not funny. So what if 100,000 years ago the Scrin were stupid animals? The fact is they overcame their limitations and were able to become something extraordinary because of Tiberium, something so powerful and dangerous that even a technologically advanced race at the beginning of the Scrin story were not able to deal with. If these creatures back then could not handle the Scrin then what hope do the forces of Earth have? <br /><br />Simply put, if it wasn't for the side pressure from the Invid in our story the Scrin would have no trouble dealing with Earth. <br /><br />As for the Overlord, if you want to think of the "Commander" as the Overlord thats your prerogative. However you need to keep in mind that there are many different Queens. Those that are dealing with our story are :<br /><br />The Matriarch<br />The Collector<br />The Traveler<br />The Reaper<br />The Protector<br /><br />These are the 5 Individual Queens that are in use across the Scrin Empire.azuza001https://www.blogger.com/profile/15518442840561550300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3998496827762994035.post-65822666904798386392011-12-17T00:04:27.157-05:002011-12-17T00:04:27.157-05:00The Matriarch! That doesn't seem to refer for ...The Matriarch! That doesn't seem to refer for Scrin < this is not a Alien vs Predator story >:(. The matriarch doesn't control Scrin. Only the Ichor(Tiberium) with the relay Node can make the Scrin Survive unless they could. And only the true Scrin Leader is the Overlord. I got this reason that Matriarch isn't the highest rank. You can still take a look at the Scrin Faction: http://cnc.wikia.com/wiki/ScrinUltraKiroXeihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01401748090901261201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3998496827762994035.post-16227570526971822842011-12-17T00:01:20.957-05:002011-12-17T00:01:20.957-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.UltraKiroXeihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01401748090901261201noreply@blogger.com
