Kaldir

A moon of the gas giant Midr IV, Kaldir is among the coldest terrestrial locations in the Koprulu Sector. Its upper atmosphere rejects heat and allows almost no sunlight to reach the surface. For this reason, only two native life forms have been discovered on Kaldir to date. One of these, a species of extremophile bacteria, serves as the power source for the others: a group of brutal Ursadons.

Kaldir’s gaseous upper atmosphere is also responsible for a pervasive effect on the celestial body that makes colonization a nightmare: cryostorms. They occur almost without warning and are accompanied by extreme drops in temperature that can also prove fatal. The extremely hostile conditions encountered there belie the fact that Kaldir is a surprisingly attractive place to explore.

Population : 1 primary swarm cluster
Affiliation : Zerg Swarm
diameter/gravity : 8,234 km; 0.92 standard units

For advanced civilizations, this celestial body offers the opportunity to study extremely resilient organisms and to conduct environmental tests in an extremely low-density ecosystem. An evolving Zerg swarm finds extraordinary biomass on Kaldir to devour. Life that thrives here can definitely improve the swarm thanks to its ability to adapt to the most inhospitable environment in the sector.

Exploring Kaldir not only requires careful movement due to frequent cryostorms, but also beware of beings technologically or biologically advanced enough to survive the moon’s extreme temperatures.

Starcraft History

The story of Starcraft is getting more and more extensive. Already the first part and the expansion Brood War offer a lot of reading material. In addition, there are numerous Starcraft books. With Starcraft II, the story is expanded significantly. On this page we offer a lot of information about the complete Starcraft story. How the three races were created is listed here in chapters. This starts with the chronicles of Starcraft 1 and goes all the way to the campaigns of Starcraft 2.

In our summary of the Starcraft 2 prehistory we have listed information from fairs and other sources.

If you would like to know what happened in certain time intervals, our Starcraft timeline is just right for you. The most important events are listed there.

Protoss Tribes

Although the Khala demand that the Protoss abandon their old tribal communities and accept the new castes of Judicators, Templars and Khalai, many still cling to the customs and relics of the old traditions. The various tribes remain intact only to serve as a cautionary reminder of the mistakes of the old Protoss. With the rise of the Judicators as the ruling caste over all Protoss, the old dilemma of separatist tendencies and tribal claims is no longer a threat to the community as a whole. The most important aspect that has survived from ancient times is that each Protoss tribe has its own unique skin color, which can range from mottled grays to a deep blue.

Terran Factions

Starcraft History | Protoss Tribes | Terran Factions | Zerg Races Each of the various Terran military factions benefits from the advanced hardware and weaponry produced by the colonies in the Koprulu sector. Numerous factions modify their weapons based on the particular characteristics or preferences of their fighting troops. Most Terran tanks, aircraft, and war machines were developed and produced by private corporations, but the plans and technical blueprints for them have since been stolen, smuggled out, and bartered away, ending up in the hands of scientists from a wide variety of political factions and groups.

Zerg Races

Little is known about the various races that make up Zerg swarms. Terran scientists have begun to document and classify some of the larger races that have ravaged their colonies. What seems clear is that each particular race/breed is descended from a unique Cerebrate that carries out the commands of the Overmind. Each cerebrate has the power to build its own brood to carry out its tasks. While it is difficult to distinguish one brood from another, Terran scouts believe they have found that they vary in functionality and purpose. It is considered proven that certain races work so closely together as if they were intertwined extensions of a larger tactical force. Terran researchers have given the races names of monsters from ‘ancient Earth’ mythology.
