     The Burnt Mystics are an obscure group of outcasts who for one reason or another sought
     refuge on the abandoned planets of Tcharic, Gharm, and Mal Katha. The first known inhabitants of these 
     barren waste lands were a mixed group judicators and dark templar conspirators who attempted
     the forbidden. They sought to join their powers and tap into the Overmind consciousness in
     order to disrupt its control over the lesser Zerg. 
  
     
     The same day that Tassadar destroyed the colony of Chau Sara, fifty of their number 
     gathered in the forests of Aiur and began their ritual. One Judicator was absent... the one
     who betrayed them to the Conclave. 
  
     Just as the rebel group of judicators and dark templars established connection with the
     Overmind a force sent by the Conclave interrupted their "Foolish and Evil" plans. The
     delicate psionic web they had woven collapsed sending ripples of Zerg tainted energy
     through their bodies. The results were unimaginable...
  
     Most lost their lives to the psionic storm that ravaged the jungle. Others became mutated,
     growing barbed spines, chitinous carapaces, and other Zerg like appendages. Some lost their
     noble hearts, their souls becoming twisted, and primal. Only a few emerged unscathed.
  
     Unscathed or not, all the survivors of the conspiracy were rounded up into shuttles and
     banished to the desolate wastes of Tcharic. They were the first of The Burnt Mystics.
  
      
      
      
     With the destruction of the Overmind, and the appearance of the UED, others began to arrive
     on the planets. The first were infested terrans who, once free of the Overmind, regained a
     semblance of intelligence, and were drawn to this dark corner of space. Then came the scattered
     remenants of Mengsk's army, seeking a place to hide and plan, in what they believed to be 
     a deserted region of the galaxy. They were followed by some cerebrates    
     who had managed to gather a few of their underlings and escape in the massive ventral sacks 
     of overlords.
  
     The Protoss outcasts, despite their now obvious differences, had managed to forge a delicate
     alliance by this time. Slowly the more pure of heart reasoned with the Terrans, and convinced
     them, that together they could build a new civilization. Even more slowly, the corrupted Protoss
     negotiated with the Cerebrates and they too were brought into the fold
  
     And so The Burnt Mystic Clan was complete, if hardly stable. Each faction would aid
     the other if it suited their purpose. Each faction was equally willing to pull another to
     peices for an ounce more of power.
