The {{translation|'''Traitors'''|道場破り|Doujouyaburi}} was a group within [[Death City]] who were brainwashed individuals under the control of [[Shaula Gorgon]]. Their purpose was to challenge their skills against [[DWMA]]<ref>(Yen Press) ''Soul Eater NOT!'' Manga: Chapter 5 — '''Clay''':''These Traitors....they're just eager to test their skills, right?''</ref> and assist the [[witch]], [[Shaula Gorgon]], and her plans to take down [[DWMA]].

According to [[Clay Sizemore]], Traitors are normal [[Human|human beings]] who've been brainwashed into the service of [[Shaula Gorgon]].

[[File:Shaula discusses her plans with her Traitor.png|thumb|left|Shaula awaits for the results of her experiment.]]Not much is known on how the Traitors first came around.

Traitors (道場破り(トレーター), Torētā) are humans whom were subjected to experimentation and/or injected with Shaula's poison and act as the witch's personal soldiers.[1]

In addition, they all experience insomnia and are unable to sleep. By preventing the subject from sleeping, the leader can remove the fear within an individual, creating a "soldier" who never rests or sleeps. This would, in turn, be an ideal fighting force.[2]

  • Fearless: Due to the poison, Traitors experience insomnia, in which eventually causes them to lose their fears at the expense of being easily controlled by specific manipulation magic.[3]

Fighting Styles
