Occult Research Club
Formed by Rias Gremory during her first year at Kuoh Academy, the Occult Research Club is the extracurricular club that our heroes are a part of. Despite the club's name, very little actual research is done; after all, the members are not (or in some cases, no longer) human. The club is just a front for Rias, her "family," and later, other supernatural beings, and it provides cover for their operations; namely dealing with paranormal activity and destroying hostile supernatural beings. They get involved with the FMian invasion after Rias reincarnates Netto as her Pawn. In General

- Technopath: He can manipulate and talk to machines, even before Omega-Xis showed up. He describes it as ‘hearing the inner workings and examine the structure of a machine or appliance by touch.’ He can even guess what a machine can do just by looking at it, though he’s sometimes wrong.

However, it's just a facade. She is up to something sinister and has her FMian partner Gemini to thank for that. As the name implies, Gemini Spark are two twins, one cool and mature, the other childlike and wild, who can both command electricity and are incredibly sadistic.
