Holy Magic Sect

About
The Holy Magic Sect is an organization that represented the human race during the first half of the Gi era. Technically founded in the year GI 0353, they were then  simply called the Magic Sect, but renamed themselves after the completion of the first Toushin Toshi α. It was an organization of exceptional mages dedicated to protect humanity from the monsters and Dark Lords.

The Holy Magic Sect was the only civilization that managed to unify humanity entirely, and made technological advancements in Magic Research far beyond any other human group in history.

Thanks to the creation of Tousho, humans were safer than ever from the monsters and served as policemen and peacekeepers. They designed an agricultural system with enchanted scarecrows and automated farmers to solve the food crisis and majestic Toshin Toshi cities that floated in the air as a testament of the mighty Holy Magic Sect.

Their most important creations are: Like stated earlier, it was founded in the year GI0353 by a man named Luca Rune, who's currently well-kwown as the strongest mage in the history of The Continent. Rune gathered 24 powerful and inteligent mages from all across the continent, along with many other talented mages that believed in Rune's ideals, founding it at first with the name of Magic Sect.
 * The Bio-metal: a special magic created by M.M Rune that allows to metalize cells, resulting in physical immortality in the process if the body is preserved correctly and functional.
 * The Tousho: the result of the bio-metal magic. Powerful humans whose body was replaced by a metalic replica. Extremely strong physical fighters, immortals and served as police and commanders.
 * The Toushin: ultimate fighting machines made to match a Dark Lord.
 * Holy Magic: A type of Magic created by the sect.
 * The Holy Skeletal Fighting Marshal: an autonomous fighting machines with humanoid forms and capable of casting Holy Magic.

The leaders of the Military Kingdom of Blashin collided with Rune's new organization, since they were unfond of the mages that by the time were considered cowards, while swordplay was considered righteous and honored. Balshin was considered the strongest military force with 20,000 soldiers, but they were completely destroyed by Rune's Magic Sect in a conflict that would be known as the War of the Iron Soldiers.

After the fight was over, Rune founded the Capital City of the Magic Sect on the smouldering remains of Balshin, which was given the name Detna Luca.

The Dark Lord War
It was a peaceful era for humanity, with great prosperity, unification, and magic was commonly accepted.

However, Rune's real ambitions were much greater, he wished to use the Toushin and Tousho to destroy the Demon King and his Dark Lords, so he declared war to the demon king. Even though Toshin could match or even surpass Dark Lords in combat, they couldn't pierce trough their Invincibility Field. They were perfectly aware of this and instead tried to seal Dark Lords and sporadically regain territory. But even after many years of war, neither sides gained any ground at all. It's important to note that not all the Dark Lords took part in the war and the Demon King Gi himself decided to stay out of conflict, telling his dark lords to "do as they please".

In the year GI451, after hearing news of humans revolting against him, M.M Rune went mad with power and rage, he branded every human being not living on a Toushin Toshi or capable of using magic as "barbarians" and that they should be treated as enemies. This behavior made him many enemies and he was assassinated at the age of 125 years old by his most trusted friend in the Capital City, Detna Luca.

The Holy Magic Sect collapsed after Rune's death and the war with Dark Lords ended.
