The Ender Watchers as depicted on Rainimator's Twitter.

The Ender Watchers were a major faction in the Rainimator Series Fractures that made their debut in Cold as Ice. They inhabited their homeworld of the End, and were mostly composed of Endermen, with some more recent exceptions over the past few centuries.

Information

The Ender Watchers were based in the End, and strived to live a purposeful life as well as protect the sacred Artifacts, being said to follow an ancient prophecy that led to the true, purpose-driven existence. They were also said to have a duty to "protect the sanctity of time and space".

As of Falling, all the pictured Ender Watchers, excluding Ceris, as well as (presumably) the majority of the End, were killed by the Nether Horde led by King Naeus in the Horde's campaign on the End, whom it had previously declared war on.

As of Cold as Ice: The Remake, Ceris was beheaded by Naeus, thus ending her reign. It is unknown if the Endermen present at her execution met similar fates or are being held as prisoners of war.

Trivia

• The Ender Watchers was the only faction so far with a female ruler, with Ceris as their former leader.
  • The Elytra Corps has Lady Azura as their leader, however this is only a subfaction.
• Vordus and Stella are the only named members of the faction whose ages have not been revealed.
  • It has been said that Stella is roughly between 18-21 years old.
• Stella and Rain are the only two members to belong to other factions.
  • Rain and Stella both herald from the Frostbourne faction.
    • Stella is a Coven member as well as a member of the Nether Horde temporarily.
    • Rain was also a member of the Undead faction, but was cured and defected.
  • They are also the only two members of the faction confirmed to be alive.
• Zeganirn and the Dragon are the only Ender Watchers who do not speak.
  • They are also the only non-bipedal members of the Faction.
  • Both are also treated as pets.
• All original members of the Ender Watchers were killed by the Nether Horde.
  • The Dragon and Ceris were both killed by Naeus.
• It could be possible that the Ender Watchers believed in Gods, more specifically Greek Gods. This is supported by:
  • Vordus' line in the Fractures Trailer ("The Gods themselves seek our corruption")
  • The Lyrics for Ender Wish mention the Fates, otherwise known as the Moirai. The Moirai were depicted as a trio weaving goddesses who assign individual destinies to mortals at birth, and when a person was to die, they'd cut their string.
  • Vordus' title as a Seer is in itself a reference to Greek Mythology and their Oracle of Delphi, who was able to speak to the God Apollo in order to learn of the Future.
    • Seers also exist in other mythologies such as Egyptian Mythology.
• Kane and Ciara could potentially have had ties to the Ender Watchers through a few factors:
  • Kane's eyes resemble the eyes of Ender People, however desaturated in color.
  • Ciara possesses karambits that are made of compressed Ender Pearls.
  • Kane shows surprise seeing Rain's Ender Eye, meaning he recognizes it.
  •  On Rainimator's Twitter Rainimator said, “Perhaps the woes of the End Matriarch gave existence to the Netherbane.” Possibly saying that, Ciara and Kane were revived from being dead (and possibly Zombies) by Ceris to help destroy the Nether.
