Angel Keepers are a strange, isolated offshoot within the Karist Priesthood. For hundreds of years, they have enslaved Angels, rendering them docile via regimented doses of cybel energy. Captive Angels are experimented upon, using different forms of cybel energy and electromagnetically charged cages to encourage them to grow new limbs or shapes to match the Enclave's requirements. Keeper Initiates, handpicked from amongst the ranks of Novitiate priests, study sacred texts written by their venerated predecessors on the complexities of caring for Angels. Some Initiates drop out when they witness the fear and rage Minnows display when they are first trapped, but those who persevere find Angels to be miraculous, transcendent beings, and pledge their lives to the cause. While all Karists are secretive, Keepers take this mantra to another level. Junior Keepers undertake a vow of silence, abandoning common human pursuits to focus solely on Angels. With years of practice and study, Keepers are able to train and even communicate with Angels in a rudimentary, computer-assisted, language. Those that graduate to the full rank of Keeper undergo surgery to replace their vocal cords with a cybernetic enhancement, effectively allowing them to "speak" the language of the Angels.
Keepers are the least public of the Kaddar sect, having little to do with local populations, but fulfilling the critical role of Angel harvesting and training. On the battlefield, they are tasked with marshaling Angel units to attack the enemy, an often tricky prospect. As Angels feel the effects of mass and gravity far stronger than their other senses, they can be led around using a pulsed gravitic generator attached to a Keeper's voicebox. The combination of sound and gravitic waves is irresistible to smaller Angels, but headstrong Mature Angels often ignore these orders if more tempting prey is available. Therefore, Keepers also wield grenade launchers equipped with Swarmer rounds to douse enemy units with na-cybel. Not only do the targets become incapacitated through temporary euphoria, but the na-cybel also draws the attention of any Angels nearby. When a Keeper and an Angel are in harmony, the consequences for their enemies can be devastating.
