'''Lightbearers | '''Lightbearers''' or '''Light-bearers''' are individuals capable of wielding the [[Light]]. Most known Lightbearers come from the remnants of [[Humanity]], and were resurrected from the ancient dead by [[Ghost]]s created by the [[Traveler]] during the [[Collapse]]. Initially known as the Risen, these Lightbearers were scattered into various warring factions, but eventually most came to be united as [[Guardian]]s serving under the [[Vanguard]] in defense of [[The Last City]]. A few rogue Lightbearers continue to operate outside the Vanguard's purview, such as the [[Drifter]]. One non-human Lightbearer, [[Dominus Ghaul]], stole the power of the Light from the Traveler but was subsequently annihilated by the Traveler for his crimes. | ||

Lightbearers are capable of wielding the Light, including [[Arc]], [[Solar]], and [[Void]] energies. With their ability to be resurrected by their [[Ghost]]s and healed of any wounds, they are effectively immortal. However, if their Ghost is destroyed or refuses to resurrect them, then a Lightbearer will die a final death. | Lightbearers are capable of wielding the Light, including [[Arc]], [[Solar]], and [[Void]] energies.
