The Wardens are constructs created by the Makers that appear in Darksiders and Darksiders II, although they are only known as Tormented Gates in the first game. Massive stone beings given life by Heart Stones, stones holding the soul of a dead Maker, they are the only known constructs impervious to Corruption. In Darksiders II, the Warden aids Death in reaching and awakening the Guardian.
The Wardens were to be the Maker's toll paid in the End War and were summoned to Earth when Abaddon broke and resealed six of the Seven Seals. After the Kingdom of Hell prevailed, the Wardens were enslaved by the Destroyer and made into living gates, stuck for eternity unless they were freed from the clutches of the Shadow Lurkers.
