The '''Dark Signers''' are a mysterious group of duelists, who serve as antagonists to the [[Signers]] and primary antagonists for the [[Dark Signers (arc)|second arc]] of [[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]].
When a person dies, he or she is given a chance to live by becoming a Dark Signer at the time of death. If they display a great will to live or a reason for revenge, an [[Earthbound Immortals|Earthbound Immortal]] may spare them turning them into a Dark Signer in the process. However due to this phenomenon which derives from the Underworld Netherworld itself, there's no way to revert the transformation. As a Dark Signer, those individuals are given a great power and a great lust for revenge. All of the Dark Signers, with the exception of Carly, hold some form a grudge against a Signer, which would provide an answer to why the Earthbound Immortals chose them. They are said to be no longer of the living world and incapable of reverting to their former selves.
Thus because of this distinctive group of individuals already had died once, it is seen that once they have been defeated in their own Shadow Duel or Shadow Turbo Duel for that matter, their departure from this world would be completely different. As instead of simply dying like a normal human being, they instead would wither until they become dust.
The Dark Signers possess an inborn drive to defeat the [[Signers]], whom each has a marking of the [[Crimson Dragon]], over the course of 5.000 years.
The Dark Signers serve as gatekeepers to the door to the underworldnetherworld. This door resides within the first [[Enerdy]] Reactor, located in [[Satellite]]. The Dark Signers plotted to open this gate to release the Earthbound Immortals. Knowing this, [[Rex Goodwin]] built the utopia [[New Domino City]] away from Satellite and restricted access between the two cities so that only those left in the Satellite would be harmed when this time came.
Rex's older brother, [[Roman]], was placed in charge of the first [[Enerdy]] Reactor, developed by Professor Fudo prior to the [[Zero Reverse|Zero Reverse Incident]]. The same incident which released the sealed Immortals from their 5.000 year imprisonment. Presumed killed by the accident, Roman was reawakened as a Dark Signer.
After a dark ritual performed by the Dark Signers in the [[B.A.D.]] area, mysterious black fog covers all of Satellite, absorbing all residents near this zone, seemingly including [[Crow]].
After Roman's [[Shadow Duel]] against Yusei concludes, the rest of the Dark Signers show themselves to their rivals, the Signers, as their final battle is about to begin. Currently, each Signer travels to one of the four control units for the Original Enerdy Reactor where their corresponding rival is awating. However, as Luna and Leo are taken by Trudge to the controller where Devack is, she is instead transported back to the [[Minus World]] in order to free [[Ancient Fairy Dragon]]. This causes Leo to duel Demak Devack in her place, trying to fulfill his promise of protecting her. After Devack summons his [[Earthbound Immortal Cusillu|Cusillu]], Luna returns from the Spirit World and takes Leo's place. Once Devack sacrificed [[Ancient Fairy Dragon]], in order to activate Cusillu's effect, Luna uses [[Respect Synchron]] to summon Ancient Fairy Dragon to her side of the field thus releasing her and using her and [[Power Tool Dragon]] to destroy Cusillu and defeat Devack.
Despite Devack's defeat and the apparent destruction of Cusillu, the Dark Signers prove to have a contingency plan. [[Greiger]] soon becomes his replacement, using a sixth Earthbound Immortal, [[Earthbound Immortal Chacu Challhua|Chacu Challhua]]. Later Greiger duels against [[Crow]], whom had managed to escaped the fog. Later during the duel, as the new Dark Signer summons his correspondent God, he ultimately finds out the truth about his village: the ones responsible for the destruction of it are actually the same individuals he now works for. Discovering this Greiger loses his will to continue the duel, but suddenly a dark and evil voice known only as an "Envoy of the Underworld" intervenes. The entity possesses him in order to force the duel to continue. In the end, the possessed Greiger is defeated by Crow in the Shadow Turbo Duel, during which Chacu Challhua is destroyed as well.
