While I did want Rohana; I’m not sure I’d want her like this. It’s not bad but not what I had in mind. I was hoping that Rohana could use units from each of the Protoss Factions. I thought it’d be cool if Rohana got the War Council as a building and could choose units and upgrades from there. I also wanted her to use the Preserver unit as a Support unit in some way.

The female protoss Artanis keep in a fridge until he need a bite of her…but at some point she turn red hot spicy Amon flavor for a while, but eventually after a little cut, she get back in taste for everyone aboard the ship.
Another way to say it is that she’s neither Vorazun the Dark Templar, nor Selendis (the one Amon used to be the head of his corrupted protoss after loosing Artanis).

She creates hybridized units from four Protoss factions:

  • Elite Zealot - Golden Age Zealot with Daelaam Zealot ideology.
  • Revelator - Daelaam Dragoons with Nerazim Stalker’s Blink ability and Daelaam Immortals with Hardened Shield ability.
  • Exarch - Daelaam High Templar with Nerazim Dark Archon’s ability and Tal’darim’s Ascendant’s AOE damage.
  • Inspirator - Purifier Energizer with Daelaam Sentry’s ability.
  • Decimator - Daelaam Immortals with Tal’darim Vanguard’s cannons.
  • Bastion - Ground attacks of a Purifier Colossus with an anti-air capability of a Daelaam Scout.
  • Roc - Urun’s Phoenix model with a Purifier Mirage’s ability.
  • Cumulus - Purifier Tempests with a Nerazim Void Ray’s attack.

I’d rather see Nerazim Adepts and Nerazim High Templar or Purifier Dark Templar.
