From left to right: Hamilcal Balkus, Tuarhan de Galenos, Waferdanos, Jabir Ibn Hayyan, Shin Rubeo Amniculus, Alkanphel, Fried'rich van Purg'stall, Edward Caerleon, Luggnagg de Krumeggnik, Kablarl Khan, and Li Yentsui.
The twelve most powerful men in Guyver's Chronos Corporation, and post X-Day, the twelve most poweful men in the world. Nine of them have been given dominion over the entire Earth, and the other three hold powerful positions within Chronos itself.
Known variously as the Council of Zoalords, the Council, the Twelve Zoalords, the Divine Twelve, the Twelve Holy Warriors, and the God Generals.
The first members of Chronos' Council of Twelve were as follows:
Alkanphel
Hamilcal Balkus
Waferdanos
Shin Rubeo Amniculos
Fried'rich van Purg'stall
Edward Caerleon
Li Yentsui
Jabir Ibn Hayyan
Kablarl Khan
Tuarhan de Galenos
Luggnagg de Krumeggnik
Richard Guyot
Since then, Richard Guyot has been ousted for treason and replaced with Imakarum Mirabilis. Luggnagg, Jabir, and Kablarl have broken away from Chronos entirely, and Kablarl has been killed by Aptom. Li Yentsui and Waferdanos have died in combat against Gigantic Dark, Griselda, and the Libertus. And Edward Caerleon has come out the worse for his encounter with the mysterious Apollon.

The Council in Warrior Guyver
The Council in Son of Mine ('verse)
Like its canon counterpart, Chronos' Council of Twelve is the most powerful group in Chronos. Supported by their legions of Zoanoids, the Council is a force to be reckoned with. Unlike some iterations of the Council, the Council in this series has been shown to have a concrete hierarchy.
The initial composition of the Council, their rankings, powers, and positions, were as follows:
Initial composition of the Council.
Alkanphel – First Zoalord – Master Zoalord
Hamilcal Balkus – Second Zoalord – Zoalord of Telepathy
Waferdanos – Third Zoalord – Zoalord of Plants
Shin Rubeo Amniculos – Fourth Zoalord –Zoalord of Water
Fried'rich van Purg'stall – Fifth Zoalord – Zoalord of Lightning
Edward Caerleon – Sixth Zoalord – Zoalord of Fire
Li Yentsui – Seventh Zoalord – Zoalord of Teleportation
Tuatha De Galenos – Eighth Zoalord – Zoalord of Stone / Fire
Luggnagg de Clumeggnic – Ninth Zoalord – Zoalord of Wind
Jabir Ibn Hayyan – Tenth Zoalord – Zoalord of Ice
Cabraal Khan – Eleventh Zoalord – Zoalord of Bio-manipulation
Richard Guyot – Twelfth Zoalord – Zoalord of Gravity
Following the betrayal of Guyot, and the destruction of both Mt. Minakami and Relic's Point, the roster changed slightly:
Imakarum Mirabilis; Guyot's replacement as Twelfth Zoalord.
The Council with Imakarum.
Alkanphel – First Zoalord – Master Zoalord
Hamilcal Balkus – Second Zoalord – Zoalord of Telepathy
Waferdanos – Third Zoalord – Zoalord of Plants
Shin Rubeo Amniculos – Fourth Zoalord –Zoalord of Water
Fried'rich van Purg'stall – Fifth Zoalord – Zoalord of Lightning
Edward Caerleon – Sixth Zoalord – Zoalord of Fire
Li Yentsui – Seventh Zoalord – Zoalord of Teleportation
Tuatha De Galenos – Eighth Zoalord – Zoalord of Stone / Fire
Luggnagg de Clumeggnic – Ninth Zoalord – Zoalord of Wind
Jabir Ibn Hayyan – Tenth Zoalord – Zoalord of Ice
Cabraal Khan – Eleventh Zoalord – Zoalord of Bio-manipulation
Imakarum Mirabilis – Twelfth Zoalord – Zoalord of Gravity
Still later, with the death of Luggnagg in a failed attempt to eliminate two Zoalords that he considered troublesome, the roster was changed once more. Currently, the Council consists of these twelve members:
Ingriam Mirabilis; replaced Clumeggnic as Ninth Zoalord.
Alkanphel – First Zoalord – Master Zoalord
Hamilcal Balkus – Second Zoalord – Zoalord of Telepathy
Waferdanos – Third Zoalord – Zoalord of Plants
Shin Rubeo Amniculos – Fourth Zoalord –Zoalord of Water
Fried’rich van Purg’stall – Fifth Zoalord – Zoalord of Lightning
Edward Caerleon – Sixth Zoalord – Zoalord of Fire
Li Yentsui – Seventh Zoalord – Zoalord of Teleportation
Tuarhan De Galenos – Eighth Zoalord – Zoalord of Stone / Fire
Ingriam Mirabilis – Ninth Zoalord – Zoalord of Wind
Jabir Ibn Hayyan – Tenth Zoalord – Zoalord of Ice
Kablarl Khan – Eleventh Zoalord – Zoalord of Bio-manipulation
Imakarum Mirabilis – Twelfth Zoalord – Zoalord of Gravity
Whether the Council will undergo further changes beyond this is currently unknown. However, considering the ambitions of Jabir and Kablarl, it still remains a possibility.
The Council in Adaptation ('verse)
Like in the canon, the Council of Twelve consists of the twelve most powerful beings on Earth. However unlike in the canon. Alkanphel is not considered to be apart of the Council, but rather the Council's Over Seer. Also, unlike in the canon, Alkanphel tells Balkus to find twelve, instead of eleven, other men to fulfill the role of Chronos' Leaders. He then literally "Ripped out, twelve Zoacrystals from his own body" and handed them to Balkus. Alkanphel does not refer to himself as a Zoalord, but rather as "Something More", and had the Council created to serve him as his own disciples. In all, there are thirteen Zoalords at a given time.
