The '''Dark Signers''' were a group of Duelists resurrected and in the service of the [[Earthbound Immortals]], who served as the evil counterparts to the [[Signers]] and were the primary antagonists for the [[Dark Signers (arc)|second arc]] of ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]]''.
==Background==
When a person died, he or she was given a chance to live by becoming a Dark Signer at the time of their death. If they displayed a great will to live or a reason for revenge, an [[Earthbound Immortal]] may spare them (provided they agree willingly, whether or not they remember doing so after being brought back), turning them into the Dark Signers in the process. As the Dark Signers, those individuals were given a great power and a great lust for revenge. All of the Dark Signers, with the exception of Roman and Rex, held some form of grudge against (or connection to, in the case of [[Devack]] and [[Carly Carmine|Carly]]) a Signer, which would provide another answer to why the Earthbound Immortals chose them. Due to this phenomenon which derived from the Netherworld itself, there was no way to revert the transformation or revert to their former selves, and were said to be no longer of the living world. If they turned over a new leaf in a Duel, the Earthbound Immortal would take over them and continue the match (however Akiza noted, their control can potentially be broken if the Earthbound Immortal is destroyed without getting rid of the person's Life Points).
They were capable of using a distinctive type of monsters known as [[Dark Synchro Monster]]s which were black lined. Their [[signature card]] are the "[[Earthbound Immortal]]s", along with the use of Field Spell cards in order to maintain the effects of these powerful beasts in a Duel. There were only five Dark Signers at any given time, each one possessed by a different geoglyph. In the anime present altered time-line, a total of seven awakened, due to the fall of others. Devack was 'succeeded' by Greiger and Rex was revived after his Duel with Roman.
Dark Signers are shown to have a black red [[Criminal mark]]-esque line running through patterns on their face (in the case of Kalin Kessler, his original criminal mark turned and black)sclerae.

After the King of the Netherworld was finally destroyed by the combined power of Yusei, Majestic Star Dragon, and the Crimson Dragon, all of the other Dark Signers were returned to life, leaving only the Goodwin brothers to pass on to the afterlife.
As for the former Dark Signers, it's unknown if the others do or don´t don't have recollection of ever being one, judging by Carly's statement and Kalin's current state. (Although it appears that Kalin and Greiger are the only ones with any recollection of their crimes as Dark Signers).
Order of reappearance:
{{clear}}
In an information file that [[Z-one]] reads in [[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's - Episode 149|Episode 149]], in the "original" timeline before he and [[YliasterIliaster]] caused the [[Zero Reverse]] to split the cities, there were only five Earthbound Immortals that fought the Signers - Uru, Ccapac Apu, Cusillu, Aslla Piscu, and Ccarayhua. This would seem to suggest that Rex and Greiger did not originally become Dark Signers, and that it was Z-one's interference with the timeline that caused them to become such.
==Abilities==
[[File:DarkTuning.jpg|thumb|right|175px|Dark Synchro Summoning]]
The [[Dark Synchro Monster|Dark Synchro]] and [[Dark Tuner monster]]s were exclusive to the Dark Signers and Shadow Drones. Dark Synchro Monsters were [[Synchro Summon]]ed by sending to the [[Graveyard]] 1 [[Dark Tuner monster]] and 1 non-Dark Tuner monster. The non-Dark Tuner monster's [[Level]] minus the Dark Tuner monster's [[Level]] must be equal to the Dark Synchro Monster's [[Level]], which is [[Negative Level|negative]]. Most of the Dark Signers used the following chant:"''When dark overlaps with dark, the doors of the underworld will open. To a world without light!" and in '' In the dub they use , the chant is: ''"When the shadows are devoured by even Darker darker shadows, the curtain pulls back and reveals, a world without light!"''
==Trivia==
*Roman only turned Grieger into a Dark Signer after Devak is defeated, thus leaving a vacancy in the Dark Signers' ranks. This suggests there can only be as many Dark Signers as there are Marks of the [[Crimson Dragon]], to maintain a balance of light and dark
