Protoss

In stark contrast to the adapti\/e Terrans and feral Zerg are the stolid, conser\/ati\/e Protoss. With their highly ad\/anced technology and potent psionic abilities, the Protoss have long considered themsel\/es the most powerful species in the known galaxy. Although they are not a prolific people, they have learned to bolster the ranks of their military with robotic war machines and to combine their intrinsic psionic ability with technology, thus producing some of the most effecti\/e warriors ever known. If the Protoss have a weakness, though, it is their refusal to accept change. The tenets of their major religion, known as the Khala, form a rigid path and the Protoss are loathe to de\/iate from it for fear of once again falling into ci\/il strife.

Although the Protoss were originally di\/ided into several warring tribes, they were united by a single scholar/philosopher known as Khas, or "he who brings order". Having studied the archaic, forbidden teachings of his ancestors, this mystic unearthed ancient, monolithic artifacts known as the Khaydarin Crystals. The power contained within these crystals -- along with his teachings -- are apparently responsible for the strengthening of the primordial, psychic link that all Protoss share. Khas also de\/eloped a strict religious, philosophical, and social structure christened the Khala. Under the Khala -- which translates roughly to Path of Ascension -- the Protoss have abandoned the crude tribal factions that led them into generations of vicious blood feuds and have instead created three castes: The Khalai (artisans and in\/entors), The Templar, (warriors and explorers) and The Judicator (administrators and leaders).
