Blessed

The Blessed are a group of psychic superhumans who control the world from the shadows and the main antagonists of the 12 part Netflix series Cyborg 009: Call of Justice.

History
The Blessed originated as a loosely organized group of humans who developed varied telepathic superpowers. Through their telepathic abilities they were able to rise to become the secret rulers of the world.

Eventually, not content to live among "inferior" beings, a faction of the Blessed, under the leadership of a man named "Emperor", began plotting to evolve the rest of humanity into Blessed using nanomachines, killing 95% of humanity in the process. However, the 00 Cyborgs, after learning of the Blessed's existence from journalist Lucy Davenport, unearthed the scheme and foiled it, destroying the satellite meant to deploy the nanomachines.

In response to this, Emperor decided to execute another plan to wipe clean the memories and knowledge of all of humanity so he could reeducate them from scratch to worship him. However, this plan was foiled when Catalina, a rogue Blessed, linked Emperor and Cyborg 009's minds, so that when the cyborg went into acceleration mode, he brought the Emperor with him into the void.
