Overview
The Shadow Guardians was formed from Guardians that left the Last City to fight the forces of Darkness. They formed dozen bands of bandits and marauders during the Red War but slowly forming up together in the aftermath of the war. Uldren Sov’s actions eventually led those bands to form into a massive coalition of former Guardians, they would eventually find Uldren as a Guardian and trained him as a Guardian. Uldren rose through the ranks, eventually becoming a Vanguard. Uldren reformed the group, selecting three commander to led the Titans, Warlock, and Hunter ranks. They would be found by Nova, asking them to join his group, the Sumeragi. Uldren accepted but warns that if he betrayed them, he would die. They are seen in multiple types of armor with colorization of black, grey, and purple.

Leadership
The leadership of Shadow Guardians is largely more complex than the simple command structure of the Last City. Unlike the rule of three the city have, the S.G. have multiple former members of the Guardians, Dead Orbit, New Monarchy, and the FWC. Along them are the Iron Lords (or Ladies) who joined them. In the leadership, there is the Vanguard position, which Uldren is in, who he or she rule the entirety of the S.G. Under that are the Commanders, which are leaders of their own classes, Titan, Hunters, or Warlock. Under them are the leaders of Dead Orbit, New Monarchy, and FWC deserters who acts as the leaders of the Shadow Guardians main force. The Iron Lords are a separate division who acts as elite guards for Uldren and elite commanders for all Shadow Guardians force.
