 The Tal'Darim, or "The Forged Ones" are a fanatical sect of Protoss cut off from the Khala, who actively worship the Xel'Naga as gods.They are one of the antagonists in every game, and serve Amon, to rebuild the universe in his name.However, they become allies with Artanis after Alarak defeats Ma'Lash in the rite of Rak'Shir and becomes leader, vowing to bring down Amon.
