ZEXAL|89|ref}}</ref>, is a being species of beings originating from the [[Barian World]], a high-energy world in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL]]'' anime. Most of them were once human, but they all have been reincarnated as Barians when they died. The majority of those lived in the [[United Lands of the Poseidon Ocean]] before their deaths, hence why [[Reginald Kastle|Nash]] was reborn as their leader. An elite group of Barians are the [[Seven Barian Emperors]] is . The [[Fearsome Four of the Dark Dueling World]] are also an enforcer group of Barians. Since [[Barian World]] was originally part of [[Astral World]] before the power of [[Chaos (power)|Chaos]] was banished from it, a group made up small portion of the Barianswere originally denizens from Astral World. The only known Barian to fit in this category is [[Don Thousand]].

===Appearanceand physiology===PhysicallyWhile in Barian World, Barians appear as redhumanoid, though they tend to conceal themselves in cloaks.<ref name="ep74">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|74|ref}}</ref> One Barian, [[Vector]], fiery has also exhibited the ability to take on an energy beingsform while on Earth, which resembles a winged, red version of [[Astral]].<ref name="ep71">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|71|ref}}</ref> However [[File:A_barian's_heart.jpg|thumb|left|A Barian's heart]]The Seven Barian Emperors, formerly human, resemble humanoid beings with unnatural skin color, such as purple or red. Furthermore, all of them have what seem to be crystals and/or armored-like plates on their bodies, such as Mizar's face resembling a mask, Girag's face resembling a helmet, and Dumon having gems on his body. Also unlike humans, they often hide seem to lack certain organs such as mouth or nose, or perhaps those organs are otherwise not seen (the only exception being Don Thousand, due to being from Astral World); despite this, their senses appear unhampered, as is their ability to speak. In the English dub, the Barians in their Barian forms even have an echo effect in their own worldvoices when they speak. They also have crystals for hearts and as seen with Mizar, instead wearing concealing cloaks of various colorsthey seemingly have the ability to survive in space.<ref name="ep74ep133">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|74133|ref}}</ref>They also cannot maintain their Barian forms on Earth without the use of a [[Sphere Field]], with the exception of [[Number ruins |Number ruins]]. In contrast, other Barians, such as those belonging to the Fearsome Four of the Dark Dueling World, take on less humanoid forms depending on the different species based off of them, like a [[Erazor|cicada]], a [[Chironex|jellyfish]], a [[Scritch|mosquito]], and even a [[Mr. Heartland|fly]]. They can even survive in low-energy enviornments such as Earth in their true forms.

Every known resident The Seven Barian Emperors of the Barian World (except [[Rei Shingetsu|Rei]]) is are loosely named after one of the stars of the [[wikipedia:Big Dipper|Big Dipper]]in the Japanese version: [[Dumon|Durbe]] after Dubhe, [[AlitAlito]] after Alioth, [[MisaelMizar]] after Mizar, [[GilagGirag]] after Merak and , [[Vector]] after Phecda, [[Reginald Kastle|Nasch]] after Benetnasch and [[Rio Kastle|Merag]] after Megrez.

[[File:Alito and Girag training.png|thumb|left|[[Alito]] and [[Girag]] training.]]While on [[Earth (planet)|Earth]], Barians can are forced to take on a human form on Earth, though not knowing that this form was the one they do not choose what had from the time they look like; were humans, although, [[Dumon]] apparently only needs to do this if his [[Baria Crystal (jewelry)|Baria Crystal]] is damaged. The only major resemblance between both their hair Barian and human form is the same as that in their true formhair, which only changes color.<ref name="ep80">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|80|ref}}</ref> As energy beings, they are impervious have remarkable tolerance to pain, even in human form; [[GilagGirag]] was able to take a punch in the face from [[FumaFender]] without so much as a flinch, though they are not immune to pain and injury entirely.<ref name="ep74" /> Barians Dumon, Erazor, Chironex, Scritch, and Mr. Heartland however, can travel from the retain their true Barian World using portals and can also utilize the ability forms on Earth, vanishing and reappearing on a whim.<ref name="ep80" /><ref name="ep82">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh!

==History==Barians inhabit the [[can travel from Barian World]] and live with great happiness. They use using [[Barian glyphsOverlay Network]] to communicate with one another. They were protected by [[Barian's Guardian|individual]]s which are similar to a police and badges. Later can also utilize the ability onEarth, they began to have feud with those of the [[Astral World]]s vanishing and seek to destroy itteleporting on a whim.

With the defeat of both human pawns and [[Vector]], [[Durbe]] determined they would have to intervene directlyFile:Barian_energy_inside_a_Chaos_Xyz. To that end, he sent [[Gilag]] to Earth.<ref name=png|thumb|right|200px|"ep74"/> Another Barian also arrived [[Rei Shingetsu]] on earth. A [[BarianNumber C105: Battlin' Boxer Comet Cestus (anime)|Number C105: Battlin's GuardianBoxer Comet Cestus]] sent to stop the plans of the evil Barians. <ref name="ep76"/>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 has winged-like and are unable to wield "[[Chaos Xyz]]" monsters.<ref name="ep80" /> Following Gilag's failed attempts to get Yuma's "Numbers"parts on its body, back which all have Barian energy seen in the [[Barian World]] Durbe sends [[Alit]] to try retrieving the "[[Numberit.]]s" from [[Yuma]].<ref name="ep80" />

Barians possess the ability to [[Rank-Up]] their [[Xyz Monster]]s by the use of "[[File:Misael!.jpgRank-Up-Magic Barian's Force (anime)|thumb|left|MisaelRank-Up-Magic Barian's arrival.Force]]After ", which possesses the constant failures power of Chaos to let them [[GilagSummon]] and "[[AlitNumber C]], " and "[[DurbeCXyz]] decides " monsters. "CXyz" monsters originate from Barian World and are produced there as "weapons" to sends defeat the "[[MisaelNumber]] " monsters.<ref name="ep74" /> While in human form, Barians cannot wield them, but they can use "Barian's Force" to Earth giving him three brainwash humans into doing so for them.<ref name="[[ep80" /> The brainwashing effect seems to vary depending on who does the brainwashing. Girag's victims retain their personalities, but become devoted to serving BarianWorld, while Vector's Sphere Cube]]victims are more like sleeper agents; retaining their original personalities until the brainwashing activates when they draw "Barian'sForce" , at which lets Barians collect "Numbers" themslevespoint they become ruthless and sadistic like Vector himself. Alito's brainwashing on the other hand completely robs the victim of free will and personality. MisaelDon Thousand's arrival was via brainwashing has two levels; the first altering the victim's personality (and possibly their memories) to become more aggressive, while the second puts the victims completely under his control. Interestingly, the Barians themselves are not immune to being brainwashed as seen when Girag brainwashed Vector (though he could have been faking), and when Don Thousand brainwashed Girag and Alito. In addition, if a giant energy ball crashing into Barian were to lose a Duel to a person using a forest"CXyz", causing they would vanish from existence, just as Astral would if he lost to a deep crater"Number".<ref name="ep82ep81">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh!
