Talematros

Talematros, also spelled Talemantros, is the Dark Templar capital on Shakuras in the fictional StarCraft universe.

After the Protoss from Aiur travelled to Shakuras in Episode IV, they eventually sent some members to move into the city and upgrade it's defenses.

It was built on a tall hill with five heavily-defended ramps to get inside. Furtermore, it was defended by Khaydarin Crystal-based Pylons, which generated a powerful electro-magnetic field, capable of preventing Zerg from maneuvering through the air nearby.

In Episode VI Infested Kerrigan returned to Shakuras to take care of some unfinished business. She needed a distraction, and her servant Samir Duran provided one. He knew quite a bit about Protoss technology, enough to spot a vulnerability in the city's defenses. If he could plant explosives on the five special Pylon clusters and detonate them simultaneously, he could overload the Pylons, creating a huge distraction. Of course, he still had to lead the Zerg up the city's five ramps, which were defended by both light and dark Protoss.

Duran was successful in planting the explosives and setting them off. The entire city exploded, as all of its structures were connected to the Khaydarin Crystal-based power grid. In the confusion, Kerrigan was able to advance her plans and escape.

It is unknown if the city was rebuilt afterwards.
