Summon Swarm is the unique faction skill of the Hive faction, known by default by all Enforcers and Heralds and unavailable to other hero classes.

Every turn, it lets the hero lay eggs that hatch into a stack of temporary, self-destructing Fire Larvae on the next turn, serving as reinforcements, distracting enemies, and soaking up damage.
