The Keepers are the secret villains of Hogwarts Legacy and I have the receipts to prove it

Hogwarts Legacy Keepers and Isidora

Framed perspectives shape our experiences in Hogwarts Legacy a lot more than you might have noticed. I'm not saying that this bias is coming from you – like all of the best RPGs, Hogwarts Legacy allows us to fully customize our character before delving into the mysteries of a complex, winding storyline. We already know that the ending is rather disappointing if you have hopes for turning evil, so there's not much of a chance to sway the hands of fate in that respect. 

However, most of what we know about Hogwarts, ancient magic, and any connections to the Goblin Rebellion is relayed to us by the Keepers. The four protectors of ancient magic are secondary characters in the game, and each of them has stored memories that you can only access in a specific order. Placed at the end of lengthy combat sequences called Trials, watching these cutscenes allows us to piece together the story underpinning Hogwarts Legacy.
