(👻: The character remains as a soul or ghost) †: The character is deceased and passed on to the afterlife (✩: Subsequent leader / ✦: Leader of their own faction within the group) Led by Kars, this group awakens in 1938 to continue seeking out the Red Stone of Aja, which, combined with their technology of the Stone Mask, will transform them into 'ultimate beings' immune even to the Sun.

The four remaining representatives of this species in the world are Kars, Esidisi, Wamuu, and Santana, in descending order of hierarchy, now called 'Pillar Men' since they were discovered sleeping inside stone pillars. Their near immortality causes them to produce only very few children, as there is little need, and sleep for millennia instead of hours, staying awake for comparable periods. Moreover, these beings are inherently powerful, have athletic physiques exclusively, and have long life spans. An individual being can possess one or several small horns for them, displaying their horns is a sign of honor. The only visible feature that can differentiate them from humans is the horns on their forehead. Their physiology is very different from humans, though outwardly they appear very similar. They are highly intelligent, extremely strong, and able to manipulate their bodies to a very fine degree however, they are vulnerable to the rays of the Sun and to the Ripple.

These beings are now nearly extinct, but used to live hundreds of thousand of years ago in the American continent. The Pillar Men are from a race of ancient, humanoid, super human beings.
