"Ancient weavers of a bygone era. Once long lost has now been found and mended. These weavers cannot be allowed to spread the corruption of Shin'ra and spread chaos from new Weapons of Sorrow."

The Weavers of Sorrow are a Hive brood (primarily a collective of Hive, Taken and Scorn) who serve Shin'ra, the Sorrow-Maker and are known as the Hive weapon masters. They act as the main antagonists of the Season of Sorrow, Season of the Wish, Into the Light and the Dread episode while playing minor roles in Risen, Plunder, Deep and Witch. They are distinguishable for their dark green chiton, brown skin and light green paint and cloth.

History

Origins

The origins of the Weavers date back millions of years ago with Shin'ra's joining of the Hive. He founded the Weavers as the creators for the Hive's weapons and eventually create the forsaken Weapons of Sorrow. Curious Hive would join the ranks of the Weavers, like Zâtrox of the Hidden Swarm, whom would be the first of Shin'ra's Court of Sorrow. Upon the creation of his Court, he would establish his line of tribute, which allowed Shin'ra to feed deaths that his own weapons would cause. At an unknown point, he would carve his own ship from many corpses of Leviathan type creatures, the Nephilim.

His actions would of course put him into the good graces of the Witness in which he would be put into temporary care of the Veil. He would attempt to study the Veil and its primordial Darkness, only to unleash the Weaver's mortal enemies, the Tarnished.

Structure

The Weavers of Sorrow are primarily made up of converted Hive from other broods, most notably the Hidden Swarm following the events of Beyond Light. Their armor is "remade" in the visage of the Hidden Swarm with black and dark green colors. However, progenitors of the Brood exist, like Shin'ra, the Sorrow-Maker, Storgor, the Great Shatterer and Zâtrox, the Necromancer, all of which were founding members and Ascendants of the Weavers.

The leadership of the Weavers are divided into two groups, the Court of Sorrow and the Cult of Unmaking, with Shin'ra being the primary leader of the brood and groups. Zâtrox serves as second in command within the Court of Sorrow. Each member of the Court of Sorrow possesses detachments of Hive that act as "extensions" of their primary function. Zâtrox possesses a coven of Necromantic Wizards that serve as his enforcers and a "failsafe," in the case if certain members of the Court were to fall, they could easily resurrect them. Jirgâth serves as the general of the Weavers of Sorrow and commands its near-endless legions of Hive. Ir Abzûl serves as a commander for the armies of the Taken that serve in the brood's ranks. Kramûc serves as the tracker and hunter of enemies of the brood. Finally, Davaj serves as a blade master and field enforcer.

The Cult of Unmaking serves as personal enforcers and "evokers of suffering" and "pain bringers" for Shin'ra with Storgor acting as their leader. They are only ever deployed in certain scenarios of "utter importance." One such instance would be the protection of the Temple of Exultation on Io which Shin'ra sought to use to enhance the brood's power through Resonance and even the Light.
