Adun and the Rogue Tribes

As the Aeon of Strife ended among the Protoss, the Khala was imposed on the entire race in an effort to prevent a return to the strife. However, a number of Protoss, fearful of the effects of the Khala, lived in secret on Aiur as Rogue Tribes, unknown to the majority of the Protoss. Only the Conclave knew of their existence. Wikipedia does not yet have an article with this exact name. ... The Protoss are a race in Blizzard Entertainments real-time strategy computer game, StarCraft. ... Categories: Stub | Protoss | StarCraft planets ... A Dark Templar (dts) is a member of a group of Protoss in the StarCraft universe. ...

Adun, an idealistic young warrior, was ordered by the Conclave to eradicate this threat, for reasons unknown. When Adun discovered these Rogue Tribes, however, he did not execute his orders. Instead, he tried to teach them how to use psionics without using the Khala. While he did successfully teach them how to hide themselves from the Conclave, his efforts to teach them the secrets of the psionic storm failed. Without the discipline of the Khala, their storms raged all over Aiur, alerting other Protoss of their existence. Categories: Stub | Protoss | StarCraft planets ...


The barely reunited tribes began to fight once more. Old vendettas and ancient prejudices were reborn as the Protoss who refused the way of Khala were branded as traitors and hunted down.


Eventually the Conclave devised a way to impose order on the Protoss once more. The Rogue Tribes were secretly placed on board a Xel'Naga Freighter and exiled from Aiur. Their fate was kept a secret from the other Protoss. Eventually they became known, in legend, as the Dark Templar. Categories: Stub | Protoss | StarCraft planets ...

Adun, however is remarkable in that although her villages are very close together and are inevitably linked by many ties, they are nevertheless very distinct units, and they enjoy a very strong sense of village patriotism.
When Adun's situation is contrasted with that of Okum, however, and it becomes apparent that the strong village patriotism, the inter-patriclan rivalry, the significance of hamlets and the lack of intermatriclan rivalry are distinctive features, then we may suspect that an interrelationship exists.
Adun, however as might be expected, seems to have become most conscious of its tribal unity in the context of inter-tribal warfare, and under the continuous pressures to which the tribe was subjected it developed a type or organization unique among the Mbembe.
