The Velari Tribe, a protoss tribe, helped to defend Aiur against the zerg. They participated in the protection of the khaydarin crystals^[1] and in the defense of the sacred protoss temple^[2] alongside the Ara, Akilae and Auriga Tribes. However, despite their efforts, the zerg managed to destroy the protoss defenses, resulting in the Overmind manifestating on the planet.^[3]

The Velari's Tribal Color is yellow.

[edit] History

The Velari Tribe was unheard of by the late Aeon of Strife period.^[4]

By 2505 the Velari Tribe had no representation in the Hierarchy.^[5]

[edit] Trivia

The name Velari is likely derived from the Latin word velati, which means "the reserves".
