The Brood Mother
A broodmother is a giant sessile ghoul capable of spawning vast numbers of darkspawn in a manner reminiscent of an insect queen.[1]
Background
Broodmothers give birth to a large litter at once, between twenty and fifty children.[2] They emerge from her womb as toddlers, often already able to walk, and grow rapidly in their first few weeks of life. A broodmother will birth thousands of darkspawn young in her lifetime.
Female captives are usually made broodmothers by the darkspawn. They contract the taint by being force-fed darkspawn tissue, raped by the darkspawn, and consuming darkspawn vomit that is forcefully spewed into the captive's mouth.[3] This gives them cannibalistic urges but also mutates them. These females turn into fully-fledged broodmothers after devouring massive amounts of flesh even from their own kin.
The race of the broodmother determines which kind of darkspawn she will give birth to. An elven broodmother will spawn shrieks, a dwarven broodmother genlocks, a human broodmother hurlocks, and a Qunari or kossith broodmother ogres. Each broodmother is capable of spawning thousands of darkspawn.
When Branka contacted the DarkSpawn. She never knew how it would effect her. She then drank the Darkspawn blood. Causing Infection.
