▲'''The Corps of Ringbearers''' are a recurring [[shared world]] fanfiction concept, created by [[Brother Grimace]]. They are a force that travel the [[Daria Multiverse|multiverse]] fighting supernatural threats, wielding alchemical [[Defender Rings]] and backed up by heavy artillery such as [[Sky Vault]]s. Command rests with the Ringmasters, and key comms infrastructure includes [[Beacon Terra One]].
In March of 2008, after reading a number of zombie fiction (including such works as [[Doggieboy]]'s [[A Little Vacation]] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Zombie_Survival_Guide The Zombie Survival Guide]), Brother Grimace created the concept of the Defender Rings and the Ringbearers - individuals in the vein of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Lantern_Corps Green Lantern Corps] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rom_(comics) Rom]. Corp backstory has that the original Ringbearers formed their Defender Rings to battle a zombie outbreak, akin to the Spaceknights forming to fight the Dire Wraiths.
Ringbearers went on to appear in numerous fanfics by Grimace, Doggieboy, [[Richard Lobinske]], and others, in particular Grimace's "[[Tales of the Ringbearers]]" vignettes. Among their ranks include alternate versions of fanfic characters like [[Martin Peters]] and [[Danielle Todds]] as well as alternate canon figures (and newly written characters).
They were a key part in the 2010s mega-crossover "[[Judith Strikes]]"/"[[Worldburner]]"/"[[Worldhopper]]" as they suffered horrific losses in the attempt to slow down [[Judith]]. After the loss of their home universe, they initiated Code Kerensky, a withdrawal from the multiverse that [[Amelia|one of their Amelia's]] forgot to rendezvous for - revealed to be a trick as the entire Corps warped out her Ring into the [[Daria (TV series)|"101" universe]] to flatten Judith's army. The threat over, the group regrouped and rebuilt.
A large amount of background information about the Ringbearers was on this very wiki but was lost during the [[Crash Of 2016]].
