'''Shakuras''' is the [[homeworld]] [[planet]] of the [[Protoss Dark Templar]]s in the [[StarCraft Universe]], a fictional universe in which a series of computer games and books are set. In contrast with [[Aiur]] (homeworld of the [[Protoss]]), Shakuras is a planet devoid of [[vegetation]]. It is also the homeworld of the [[Kakaru]], a flying reptilian creature similar to the [[pterosaur]]s. The planet is dark due to the curious "darkening" of the sun, probably due to engineering by the [[Xel'Naga]]. It is home to a [[Warp Gate]] and a [[Xel'Naga Temple]].

When [[Khas]] created the [[Khala]] and enlightened the Protoss tribes, he united all but a few dissented Protoss tribes who refused to submit to the Khala.  [[Adun]], a young warrior, was sent to destroy them, but instead he tried to teach them psionics instead until they couldn't help but reveal themselves.  Because of this, these "Dark" Protoss were exhiled from Auir and sent to space.  These tribes eventually settled on Shakuras, expanded, and began life anew, but were forcibly reunited with their "light" counterparts when the decision was made to [[evacuate]] the remaining Protoss tribes on Aiur to a safer location.

The Dark Templar were led by the [[Matriarch Raszagal]], who does the best she can to guide and protect her people.  After Raszagal's untimely death, [[Zeratul]] assumed control of the tribes.
