Indigo Tribe (Indigo Lanterns)
With the war of light coming to a head the mysterious Indigo Lanterns have remained elusive. There has been very little seen from this tribe or what they can do. In the hope of shedding some light on this particular group’s ways we, at Fanboyz.net, waited until this secretive corps revealed more that just a color of emotion to us. This corps is still wrapped in secrecy but learn what we know after the jump.
The Indigo Tribe, Compassion, and Indigo Light
There is so little known about the Indigo Tribe so please, bear with us. We know that their tribe has many members. There are races that I am not familiar with in the DC Universe. Their leader is named Indigo. The indigo light in the emotional spectrum is for compassion. On top of possessing a power ring the corps members also wield a staff that seems to absorb and redirect emotional energy. We have not seen them use the ring, but when Indigo came across a mortally wounded Green Lantern she puts her hand on his chest, taps into the “will” of his ring, and then suffocates him with his own power in a mercy killing. When the Sinestro Corps memeber that this fallen GL was fighting shows up and sees this he fires on her. Indigo’s staff absorbs the yellow energy, registers it as fear, then creates a fear construct which sends him running. So, at this point the Indigo Tribe can tap into or redirect other lights in the spectrum. Something else that was interesting was that when Indigo approached the GL she was speaking a language that his ring could not decipher. GL rings can do pretty much anything and are programmed with every known language, but he could not understand her.
The Oath
As of this time there has not been any oath established.
There are so many players in the road to Blackest Night and not all of them are playing by the same rules. The Indigo Tribe seems to wield much power, but their idea of compassion may be a bit questionable. Where this corps lands may turn the tide to which ever they side with. Is compassion only felt by the side of good? We will just have to wait and find out.

Bring on the BLACK!!!!!
I think their power of compassion is ultimately what will beat the black lanterns. Their compassion is what will bring the blacks peace, allowing them to rest. Two clues, Tales of the Corps 1, where Indigo gives a mercy killing and Blackest Night 2 where Dove was at peace and would not become a black lantern.
