A Barian, Vector, in his true form.

A Barian (バリアン), spelled Varian in Japanese[1], is a being originating from the Barian World, a high-energy world in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL anime. The Seven Barian Emperors is a group made up of Barians.

Design

Appearance

Physically, Barians appear as red, fiery energy beings.[2] However, they often hide their forms even in their own world, instead wearing concealing cloaks of various colors.[3]

Etymology

Every known resident of the Barian World (except Rei) is loosely named after one of the stars of the Big Dipper: Durbe after Dubhe, Alit after Alioth, Misael after Mizar, Gilag after Merak and Vector after Phecda.

Abilities

Barians can take human form on Earth, though they do not choose what they look like; although, their hair is the same as that in their true form.[4] As energy beings, they are impervious to pain, even in human form; Gilag was able to take a punch in the face from Fuma without so much as a flinch.[3]

Barians can travel from the Barian World using portals and can also utilize the ability on Earth, vanishing and reappearing on a whim.[4][5][6] Misael showed the ability to fire energy balls for offensive purposes, though they do not do lasting damage.[5] These abilities can also be granted to humans. Vetrix, who made a contract with Barians, was able to produce energy balls and use the aforementioned portals to travel.[7]

"Chaos Xyz" monsters originate from the Barian World are produced there as "weapons" to defeat the "Numbers".[3] While in human form, Barians cannot wield them, so they use "Rank-Up Magic - Barian's Force" to brainwash humans into doing so for them.[4] Furthermore, if a Barian were to lose a Duel to a person using a "Chaos Xyz", they would vanish from existence, just as Astral would if he lost to a "Number".[8]

History

Barians inhabit the Barian World and live with great happiness. They use Barian glyphs to communicate with one another. They were protected by individuals which are similar to a police and badges. Later on, they began to have feud with those of the Astral Worlds and seek to destroy it. One Barian, Misael, specified that if they do not, then their own world will have "no future".[4] For that reason, the Barians are bent on acquiring the "Numbers" to find the location of "Numeron Code" - the "God Card" that created the world and can decide fate. They cannot gather the "Numbers" themselves, so Seven Barian Emperors manipulated or exploited humans including Dr. Faker and Vetrix.[3]

With the defeat of both human pawns and Vector, Durbe determined they would have to intervene directly. To that end, he sent Gilag to Earth.[3] Another Barian also arrived Rei Shingetsu on earth. A Barian's Guardian sent to stop the plans of the evil Barians. [9]Later after Gilag's Failure, Durbe sends Alit to gather the "Numbers". On Earth, Barians can take human form, though they do not decide what they look like and are unable to wield "Chaos Xyz" monsters.[4] Following Gilag's failed attempts to get Yuma's "Numbers", back in the Barian World Durbe sends Alit to try retrieving the "Numbers" from Yuma.[4]

Misael's arrival.

After the constant failures of Gilag and Alit, Durbe decides to sends Misael to Earth giving him three "Barian's Sphere Cubes" which lets Barians collect "Numbers" themsleves. Misael's arrival was via a giant energy ball crashing into a forest, causing a deep crater.[5]
