Forum:Shadowkeepers (Reworked)

The Shadowkeepers are a force of Fallen, Hive, Vex, Cabal, Taken, Scorn, and human antagonists from different alternate universes led by the Black Swordsman, known as Kirito, and his consort, Asuna. They believed that the Traveler had abandoned them and that the Darkness was created so that they can bring forth the uprising of their rebirth and the beginning of a new dark era in which everything that represented the Light was wiped out from existence.

They are the main antagonists of the Paradox expansion, having slain Zavala, corrupted Mal with the Darkness, and caused the Shadowkeeper Apocalypse.

Overview
"The enemies of humanity are innumerable. We are surrounded by the Fallen, the Vex, the Hive, the Taken, the Scorn, and the Cabal. But never before have we faced an enemy as powerful as the Shadowkeepers – a villainous organization hellbent on overthrowing entire worlds."

- Official Description

Created alongside the Shadow Army (consisting of the Fallen House of Shadows, Hive Shadow Brood, Vex Shadow Divisive, Cabal Shadow Legion, Taken Reborn, and Scorn Cult of Shadows) and the Ghosts of Nagasaki, the Shadowkeepers seek to destroy the Traveler and terraform all worlds into their own. Led by Kirito and Asuna, the Shadowkeepers have brought forth waves of terrifying destruction upon countless representations of the Light in order to ensure a dark endgame and ultimately bring an end to the City Age.
