DARK TEMPLAR
Description: Banished from Aiur for refusing to submit to the Khala, the Dark Templar have wandered throughout the far reaches of space for generations. These mighty warriors, drawing secret powers from the cold void of the cosmos, are able to bend light around themselves, which renders them virtually invisible. Armed with modified psi-blade technology, the Dark Templar relentlessly strive to protect their race and the ancient secrets of their tribes.
Hit Die: d6.

Requirements
Race: Protoss.
Base Attack Bonus: +4.
Feats: Stealthy, Weapon Focus (psi-blade).
Psionics: Ability to manifest 2nd-level powers.
Special: The Protoss must ceremoniously cut off the ends of the nerve appendages on the back of his or her head. (This removes the Protoss' innate telepathy ability, and imposes a -4 circumstance penalty to Charisma-based checks when dealing with non-dark templar Protoss).
