The Class
The Class are the mysterious rulers in the Texhnolyze franchise who manipulate events in Lux from their sealed domain. They represent the ultimate evolution of texhnolyzation technology, with forms of augmentation far beyond the crude prosthetics available to the city’s inhabitants. Their creation, the Shapes—beings who have replaced their entire bodies with machinery save for their heads—embody the logical endpoint of transhumanist philosophy in the series.
