The Protoss

== Summary ==
The Protoss are one of the three dominant races in the StarCraft universe. The race was created and artificially advanced by the Xel'naga, resulting in an incredibly rapid evolution and unstable, yet vastly powerful, race. They are incredibly advanced, controlling incredible technology and bearing potent psionic powers. With their full armada, they are able to control many solar systems at once, maintain a galactic presence, and can burn the surfaces of planets with several of their Capital Ships, such as Carriers. As a race, the Protoss are incredibly intelligent, and are able to access the thoughts and memories of all their collective ancestors, resulting in Protoss individuals having vastly superhuman intelligence. Though they can be overconfident and prideful as a race, this is not unwarranted, as those who wish to challenge the Firstborn will likely soon regret it.
