Eight Powerful Warriors:
During the Grim times, a period when Shinigami wore his former mask and was free to roam, a group known as the "Eight Powerful Warriors", formed by Shinigami himself existed. As the name suggests, it is comprised of eight members which are now known as Great Old Ones. They were dedicated to eradicating the existence of evil beings from the Earth and to prevent the coming of a Kishin.
History
During their reign, the Eight Warriors battled against witches and foes alike while preventing the birth of another Kishin. At one point there was strife between them and witches known then as the Witches of The East. Evidently, Shinigami had gathered the members of the group and sent them to battle against the witches, but when the members who were sent on the extirpative expedition arrived, they discovered the witches had all been eliminated. When Shinigami arrived and asked about the remains of the witches, a member told him Asura had eliminated them.
At an unknown point, the most suspicious member of the group went mad and began consuming souls. During Asura's rampant period, he consumed 3 of the Great Old Ones. Ultimately, Shinigami put a stop to him by defeating him and ripping off all his skin and sealing him away inside a bag made of it.
Present Day:
200 Years Have past since the last War between the DWMA and the Kishin up rise, so now a new list of members have taken the Powerful Warriors seats.
