Flame Keeper the 100 May We Meet Again the 100

" I can't merely forget my faith or my oath to protect the Flame and ensure its succession. "
— Flamekeeper Gaia [src]

The Flamekeepers (or Fleimkepa in Trigedasleng), besides known as the Club of the Flame, or the Keepers of the Flame, were the spiritual leaders of the Grounder organized religion. They devoted their lives to safeguarding the Flame and ensuring its succession. The Flamekeepers as well served as the teachers and spiritual guides of the Commanders a.k.a. the bearers of the Flame.

The first Flamekeeper was Callie Cadogan, who had been entrusted with the Flame by the posthumous first Commander Becca Franko. Other notable Flamekeepers were Titus, who served five Commanders (including Lexa), and Gaia, the final Flamekeeper. The spiritual order effectively came to an terminate when the Flame was destroyed to save its last bearer, Madi Griffin, from Sheidheda.

Early History

2 years subsequently the first Nuclear Apocalypse, Becca Franko completed her latest artificial intelligence, the Flame, while on lath her space station Polaris. She believed that the Flame was the key to saving humanity and became its commencement user and thus the first Commander in a posthumous recognition.

Becca then descended back to Earth and came into contact with the Second Dawn survivors. She lived with them in the 2d Dawn Bunker for a cursory period of fourth dimension, during which she became skillful friends with Callie Cadogan.

Becca entrusts Callie with the Flame

Presently earlier Becca's execution by the Second Dawn, she entrusted Callie with protecting the Flame and finding information technology a worthy bearer. Callie then led a grouping of defectors out of the bunker and back to the basis using Becca'southward Nightblood serum, becoming the origin of the Grounders. Becca became a martyr to later generations of Grounders, and they established a tradition in which whoever took on the Flame became their new Commander.

Not much is known near the early on history of the Flamekeepers after that. At some bespeak, the spiritual gild was established, with Callie given the championship of Kalliope Pramfleimkepa ("Calliope, the Outset Flamekeeper" in Trigedasleng). The Flamekeepers were based in the Polis Temple.

Duties and Responsibilities

The Flamekeepers are the leaders of the Grounders' organized religion which centers on the Flame. They train the Nightblood children that their scouts observe, and oversee the transition between Commanders. The head Flamekeeper serves equally an advisor and spiritual guide to the Commander. When in that location is no Commander, the Flamekeepers are responsible for keeping the Flame safe.

The Flamekeeper uses their scouts to search for Nightbloods. When a Nightblood child is discovered, they are brought to Polis to brainstorm training for the Conclave, which is the process in which the new Commander is decided.

When a Commander dies, the Flamekeeper removes the Flame from their neck and initiates the Conclave. The belief amidst Grounders is that the Flame, a.k.a. Commander's spirit (which is A.L.I.E. ii.0), "chooses" its successor through this process. Once the victory horn is sounded, the victor is taken to the temple where the Flamekeeper performs the rising ceremony. The Flame is implanted into the neck of the victorious Nightblood making them the new Commander.

Nightblood children are sometimes hidden from the Flamekeeper scouts. This was the example with Ontari, who was taken from her parents and trained by Queen Nia instead. As revealed in "The Queen's Gambit," when the Flamekeeper scouts came looking for young Nightbloods, Madi'southward family also chose to hide her true nature rather than have their young daughter take part in any of the Conclaves.
