Revision as of 22:32, 13 November 2010

Early

January

April

  • Gestalt Zero, a prototype terran/protoss hybrid, incapacitates high templar Muadun and delivers him to Dr. Stanley Burgess. He becomes the latest test subject in Project Gestalt.[1]
    • April 6: Burgess reports on the project's progress.[1]
    • Gestalt Zero carries out a successful raid on a LarsCorp facility while the experiments continue. Muadun manages to summon protoss forces to the project's base, who subsequently destroy it.[1]

Later Events

  • Ramsey ends up far from Shakuras. He and Zamara locate Zeratul and convince him to help separate them. They also discuss a number of secrets, including the life cycle of the xel'naga and the creation of the hybrids. Zeratul brings them to a shrine on Ehlna, a Nerazim sanctuary where Ramsey's life could be saved, while he traveled to Pegasus, observing an energy creature hatching from a fresh temple and following it to a wormhole with a mysterious planet at the end. Meanwhile, Rosemary Dahl and a protoss force led by Selendis arrive at the shrine, while forces under the command of Ethan Stewart, Valerian Mengsk, Selendis and the dark archon converge on the site and fight over Ramsey. Zamara is successfully removed, only to immediately seal Ulrezaj into her crystal. Stewart is killed in combat, and the Dominion achieves victory. Valerian Mengsk is able to protect Ramsey from his father and also kept some knowledge from the shrine he had acquired before the protoss returns in force and drive the Dominion away.[8][6]
  • A Moebius Foundation research team on KL-2 accidentally release a malevolent entity from a xel'naga-crafted prison, who bends the scientists to its will. Protoss forces arrive soon after and do battle with the entity's minions. Despite their assumptions to the contrary, the entity escapes their wrath.[9][6]

Misc. Events

Contradictions

The timeline provided in StarCraft II: Heaven's Devils places the events of The Dark Templar Saga and Ghost/StarCraft: Ghost: Spectres in 2503. This stands in contrast to comments made by Chris Metzen, who placed the saga in the same year as StarCraft II (many months, if not a year before it)[14] and the saga itself.[5][8]

The next article in this series is 2504.

Notes

  1. This incident took place on Nova's 18th birthday. The date is derived from StarCraft: Ghost: Nova, and could have fallen in late 2502 instead.
  2. Given the timing of Nova's memory wipe, and the timing of StarCraft: Ghost: Spectres (2503), the KLF invasion of New Sydney almost certainly took place in 2503.
