Dark Keeper

A Dark Keeper is any vermin that has been possessed by the Everdark. This typically occurs by minuscule fragments of the Everdark separating from a Dark Vampire. These fragments are sentient and seek out dark and hidden places to survive. They will often latch unto any living creature found and possess it.

  • Type: Spirit
  • Habitat: Any
  • Native Plane: Shadow Realms, Everdark
  • Distinctions:
    • Matte black surface over possessed creature
    • Cold to the touch

The first Dark Keepers arrived at nearly the same time as the Dark Vampires. When they were forcibly pulled into this world the Everdark shattered in the mortal plane. This caused fragments of the Everdark to scatter across the world.

Dark Keepers live in large packs. As a Dark Keeper gets more powerful it will not grow, instead it will possess more creatures. It becomes a larger pack.

Society

While a Dark Keeper may be seen as a large pack of vermin, this is only a single Dark Keeper. Dark Keepers prefer to live alone and when two Dark Keepers meet they will fight to the death for supremacy - the winner taking the loser's Everdark.
