The Khalai Caste are the working class of the protoss.[1] Artisans, scientists and builders, they form the great majority of the protoss population. Their vital contributions are valued by the other protoss.[2] The other two Castes are the Templar Caste (the warriors) and the Judicator Caste (the leaders).[1]

History
Edit
Before the advent of the Khala, each tribe had a definite proclivity or strength. The dictates of the Khala advised a three caste system, which each tribe fit easily into. The vast majority of protoss tribes were collected under the Khalai Caste.[2]
Despite the caste's non-combatant role, the Great War signalled the beginning of changing times for the Khalai Caste, the role of a warrior among them. The Furinax Tribe fought for the Protoss Conclave against Fenix and Jim Raynor when they tried to free Tassadar from his trial for treason.[3] As the war on Aiur continued against the zerg and the number of Templar diminished, many Khalai were forced to bear arms, the Shel'na Kryhas being a prime example.[2]
Members of the Khalai Caste continue to dwell on protoss colony worlds. However, they became the target of the Terran Dominion, many Khalai being abducted for experimentation in Project Gestalt.[4]
