"The Purifier protoss." Kerrigan, seated on the other side, had noticed the message as well. "Weren't they sealed away by the Protoss Empire as restricted weapons?"

The Purifier protoss were a unique branch among the many protoss factions, and a monument to the glorious ancient technology of the Protoss Empire. The project aimed to digitize the memories and personalities of legendary protoss heroes and upload them into forged mechanical host bodies, thereby preserving the targets' ways of thinking and decision-making abilities from before their deaths. The copies could achieve a 99.3% resemblance to the original memory templates, making them virtually identical.

With this technology, the Conclave of the Protoss Empire could continuously replicate the greatest warriors in imperial history, mass-producing standardized mechanical soldiers controlled by artificial intelligence. In other words, as long as they had enough Robotics Facilities, fabrication matrices, and construction materials, the Purifiers could produce new warriors without end and overwhelm their enemies through sheer numbers.

That was what the Purifier protoss were: mechanical protoss precisely replicated from protoss warriors. In truth, they could already be considered an independent protoss race, one even possessing the potential to develop into another civilization. It was simply that their creators had never realized it.

This protoss faction consisted of an enormous warrior caste, and their copied memories and personalities were effectively immortal. Even if the host body carrying their consciousness data was destroyed, they could be reborn in another body.
