GENERAL INFORMATION

• Orientation: Dark
• Influence Area: N/A
• Symbol: [ If your Force tradition has symbols or icons that are associated with it, include or describe them. ]
• Description: Among the ancient Sangnir, Lifeweavers were held in the highest regard. Equal parts scientists and sorcerers they engineered and found new ways to infuse Anima, the substance all Sangnir need to survive, into weapons of war, items of comfort, and anything in between. As Sangnir are solely reliant on their control and consumption of Anima, the Lifekeepers fiercely guarded their secrets.

SOCIAL INFORMATION

• Membership: [ How does one become a part of this Force tradition? Are they born into it? Are there ceremonies that one must go through or skills one must learn? Explain any processes that must be adhered to, if applicable. ]
• Motives: Scientific advancement. Each smith has their own belief or motive behind it, but all who can call themselves a Lifekeeper agree the underlying goal is and always will be scientific advancement. How perfect can they make themselves or others? What level of technology can they create using Anima? How beautiful can they shape Anima into works of art? How refined can they make their palate?
• Rules and Teachings: There are only two rules. Never share your discoveries with any but another Keeper, and never bring harm to another Keeper.
• Reputation: N/A
• Openness: Closed off as can be. A Keeper that doesn't find an appropriate heir will die with their secrets.

• Notable Force Limitations: [Does this tradition neglect, ignore, forbid, or poorly understand some kinds of Force abilities? For example, the Jedi tradition has typically excluded alchemy and lethal Force abilities, the Sith tradition has typically excluded healing, and don't ask an Ewok shaman to cast Force Lightning. ]
