Dark templar (StarCraft II)

The dark templar appears in StarCraft II. It retains its permanent cloaking.

Dark Templar are created from a gateway and require a dark obelisk before they can be warped.

Appearance
In order to make the Dark Templar different in appearance from zealots, Samwise Didier gave dark templar different weapons (a bladed staff weapon) and armor covered with zerg bones. Two types of dark templar will feature – one model, the Zer'atai, will have a scythe, another, the Lenassa, will have a warp blade. Dark templar with two blades may be added later.

Blizzard Entertainment is holding a poll on which model the community favors – Zer'atai, Lenassa, or a random selection of both. kb1Xumhoa5U
