y death...heralds the end of this world. -Loken, fallen lord of the Halls of Lightning
With the upcoming release of The Secrets of Ulduar, the next major content update for World of Warcraft, Ulduar's gates will swing open, allowing heroes of
the Horde and the Alliance to venture into the titan Pantheon's ancient halls. In addition to an all-new raid dungeon, this content patch will introduce the
dual-talent specialization system, new quest lines, and epic tier-8 armor sets.
To whet your appetite for the adventures to come, the Insider offers this overview of the new features awaiting you. Read on, but be warned: of all of Ulduar's
secrets, perhaps the most ominous is that the temple's vaulted walls were built not to keep intruders out, but rather to keep something else contained within.
Above all else, Ulduar is a prison restraining an ancient evil.

hough we strike at you from the shadows, do not think that we lack the courage to stand in the light. -Zeratul
The powerful psionic warriors known as the Dark Templar have existed for more than a thousand years, and their legacies and customs are as diverse as the
protoss race. The Dark Templar of the Lenassa tribe wield wrist-mounted warp blades and don facial shrouds before battle, while those of the Zer’atai
tribe wield scythe-like warp blades and wear patchwork armor crafted from the bones of slain zerg foes.
These two protoss tribes recently went head to

Dark Templar in StarCraft II multiplayer matches.
Players were able to choose between the agile Lenassa, the heavily armored Zer'atai, or a third option which would make either of the tribes appear
randomly in multiplayer. The results are in, and it was a landslide -- check out the
StarCraft II community site for more details.
