The Keepers

The Keepers are four individuals who are, in short, the guardians and overall protectors that watch over all of Immensus. Their exact ages are unknown and the full extent of their abilities remain vastly a mystery, though it is believed that all four of them are roughly equals in power. Each of them alone has the power to control the planet, but none are above the others, so not only do they balance the planet but they balance themselves, ensuring that none of the others go out of line or get more involved than they need to. The Keepers typically only get involved with matters that could affect the entire planet, for better or worse, and rarely if ever involve themselves with things on a whim. Their true names widely unknown, they are often only known by their four titles: LinkThe Warmonger, LinkPeace, The Librarian, and The Shepard. Within the Chilean Fighting Tournament, they are known as the Four Kings: The four best fighters in the entire tournament, by a long shot. Unsurprisingly however, not everyone believes in how powerful they are. Many believe that the strength the Keepers posses is little more than myth. This couldn't be farther from the truth.

If a Sector is deemed as quarantined you can bet that it is the Keepers behind not only enforcing it, but that they are also the ones behind setting it. Some on Immensus believe the Keepers to not even be mortal, but rather they believe they are gods among us. As a result of this a lesser known but still somewhat common religion, known as the Church of Guardians (followers are known as Keepians), was formed on Immensus. This is one of the few religions that is practiced throughout the entire planet with followers able to be found pretty much anywhere with a populace. Keepians are much more common in TGC however, as a result of the Chilean Fighting Tournaments in which the Keepers are known to occasionally participate in. They are an organized religion that, in short, believes that the Keepers are gods among us and that they will protect Immensus in times of need by destroying those who threaten the planets balance. It also states that no one is better than anyone else simply because of who or what they are, and that all are equals. Furthermore is claims that to have power is to have a responsibility to use said power for the right thing.
