“Keepers, hear me! Long before time had a name, we were charged with protecting this world from the wrath of Wojira. For countless generations, we have fulfilled our duty as the First Spinjitzu Master tasked us. Now, for reasons we know not, Wojira awakens. Wojira rises! So we send her this gift, the Gift of Jay!” |
— Mammatus to the Keepers in "The Gift of Jay" |
The Keepers of the Storm Amulet of Wojira (also referred to as the Keepers of the Amulet or simply Keepers) are an ancient native tribe of humanoid islanders that have storm powers and guard the Storm Amulet, which was given to them by the First Spinjitzu Master before the creation of Ninjago to protect the world from Wojira.[1]

History
Prior to The Island
Before the creation of Ninjago, the First Spinjitzu Master entrusted the Keepers into protecting the Storm Amulet from Wojira and any outsider who would wish to steal it, and the Keepers kept the oath. Although, when the Keepers realized that Wojira was awake, they had no choice but to offer sacrifices to her so they can keep her submissive. Unbeknownst to them, they were actually offering gold and their resources to Ronin, who used a boat that resembled the sea serpent.
The Keepers of the Amulet
The Keepers were able to electrocute and capture the ninja and take them to their village. The Keepers took them to their leader, Mammatus, who explained the history of the Storm Amulet and their sacred oath about protecting it. They were then sentenced to become their prisoners forever.
The Gift of Jay
The Keepers threw the ninja into a cell. When they tried to escape, they electrocuted them. Later on, they were being chased or were chasing Zippy, giving the ninja a way to escape. However, they were electrocuted again by Keepers after Clutch Powers tried to steal the Storm Amulet. They were with Mammatus when they sacrificed Jay.
The Tooth of Wojira
After the ninja failed to rescue Jay, the Keepers confront them again and promised that they'll sacrifice them to Wojira if she returns. However, after realizing that they sacrificed Jay to a fake Wojira, they make amends with the ninja.
