X-Laws
Encyclopedia
The X-Laws are the primary group of antiheroes in the anime
and manga
series Shaman King
. Like Yoh and the other protagonists of the story, they oppose Hao Asakura. However, their methods are far more ruthless and harsh. With the exception of the members of X-I, all current X-Laws are ex-military. Most members use firearms as mediums for their spirits.
The X-Laws zealously believe Iron Maiden Jeanne
and her ideals; as a result, they are completely faithful to her and will stop at nothing to ensure her mission will be completed. Like Jeanne, they are convinced they are saving the world from the corruption and evil of Hao. They will eliminate anyone who stands in their way as they believe only those who join them are good.
Because Jeanne is constantly inside her iron maiden
, her defacto leader is Marco, a man completely faithful to Jeanne. The X-Laws obey him without question and his authority to act is overruled only by Jeanne herself.
Each member of the X-Law has an Archangel
(Arch-Spirit in the English dub) as a guardian spirit. These powerful entities is presented to them by Jeanne once she deems them worthy and truly believing in their cause. The spirits are kept inside the ammunition of a gun, and are actually the tsukumogami
of cars. In the anime, all the archangels were absorbed by Morphine/Chloe when the X-Laws all fell to Hao. The result was her "upgrade" to Angel Advent.

However, with their deaths, Hao goes on to reveals his medium, the air itself, to the X-Laws, who had intended to go so far as to sacrifice their own lives as to discover the secret because they knew that regardless of what they did, their fight with Hao would kill them.
