Superorganisms are a type of Hostile Species believed to have hive-mind mentalities allowing them to work as a whole rather than individually and be extremely powerful as a result. Due to most sentient beings valuing individuality, they are often employed as villains in fiction. However, some Superorganisms can just have capabilities beyond what peak Humanoid physiology would have to offer.
Unlike Hostile Species or anything similar like families and corporations/nations, it is possible for a Superorganism to be considered Pure Evil, so long as they qualify in most or all of the following criteria:
- The Superorganism must have a true hive mind; I.e. one that kills all of its servants should the central intelligence of the Superorganism get destroyed or severed.
- Everyone involved in the work for the Superorganism is, or is reduced to be, nothing more than a physical manifestation and mouthpiece of the central intelligence's will and can't function beyond it, nor can it develop free will that contradicts the mindset of the central intelligence.
- The central intelligence itself must have a clear moral agency, something a non-hive-minded Hostile Species could never obtain on their own.
- The central intelligence controlling the Superorganism must cross or is already well beyond the Moral Event Horizon. Thusly, only the actions and overall influence of the central intelligence itself will be considered when deciding on whether the superorganism should qualify as Pure Evil or not.
Famous examples are the Borgs, Daleks, Harvesters and Xenomorphs.
