The Dars Group
Nameless, faceless, hive-minded servants of HOLY, these masked soldiers, apart from looking identical, all possess an identical Alter power. At first, this power is the use of large, powerful, disembodied hands, often used to restrain other Alters. However, later Dars show variations of this power.

In reality, the Dars are actually Native Alters who have been captured and reprogrammed by The Mainland, because they were either weak Alters, or opposed HOLY. No matter what their abilities were before, they were refined and changed completely. None of them possess any sense of individuality.

Funding
Tadanori Kiryu, the Mainland's top adviser for the Lost Ground, funds both HOLD and HOLY.
