The Dark Signers are a mysterious group of Duelists, who serve as antagonists to the Signers and primary antagonists for the 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 Immortal may spare them, turning them into the Dark Signers in the process. As the Dark Signers, those individuals are given a great power and a great lust for revenge. All of the Dark Signers, with the exception of Roman and Rex, hold some form of grudge against (or connection to, in the case of Devack and Carly) a Signer, which would provide an answer to why the Earthbound Immortals chose them. Due to this phenomenon which derives from the Netherworld itself, there's no way to revert the transformation or revert to their former selves, and are said to be no longer of the living world (However, Akiza has noted in her Duel with Misty, that if she beats the Earthbound Immortal without getting rid of the Life Points, perhaps that person will return to normal).
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 when they were sent into the Netherworld.
They are capable of using a distinctive new type of monsters known as Dark Synchro Monsters which are black lined. Their signature card are the "Earthbound Immortals", along with the use of Field Spell cards in order to maintain the effects of these powerful beasts in a Duel. There are only five Dark Signers at any given time, each one possessed by a different geoglyph. A total of seven awakened, some other the fall of others. yourmother YOUR MOTHER YOUR MOTHER
