The leading successor of the organization Mad Burnish. After surviving a housefire as a child, he aims to extinguish all flames. Voice castĪ recently recruited member of Burning Rescue describing himself to have a 'burning soul'. The Burnish become normal humans, and Galo and Lio resolve to rebuild the world together. Having fused with the Earth's core, Lio convinces Galo to combine the drive with the mecha to protect life on Earth while allowing the Promare to envelop the surface, causing the Promare to burn completely and harmlessly, satisfying their natural urge and allowing the rift in the core to close. Using Lio's flame, he defeats Kray, and while Lio is nearly killed due to the warp drive, Galo revives him using the mouth-to-mouth technique. However, Lio's flame had managed to save Galo, and using a drill designed by Prometh, Galo makes it to the core of the ship in time. Kray seemingly kills Galo and takes Lio to use him to power the warp drive. After seemingly destroying the ship and warp drive during the battle, Kray reveals that he is a Burnish, and was also the one who indirectly started the fire he forcefully rescued Galo from, using it as the start of his political uprising, and only recommending Galo to join Burning Rescue in order to let him die.

In a mecha of Deus' design, known as the Deus X Machina, Galo and Lio return to the city to confront Kray. He proceeds to reveal the collective agony caused by the Promare-powered warp drive will cause the Earth's immediate destruction. The surging magma is a side effect of subjecting the Promare to pain, and Kray's experiments on the Burnish using incomplete, stolen technology are accelerating its growth. The Promare naturally desire to burn, an instinct inherited by the Burnish. Deus explains that the Burnish can communicate with the Promare, a race of inter-dimensional flame beings residing in Earth's core after a dimension rift opened shortly before the Great World Blaze. The flames melt the ice and reveal a laboratory run by a holographic projection of Deus Prometh, a scientist killed by Kray. Galo escapes from prison, and with the help of Burning Rescue, intervenes in the conflict, restraining and cooling him down enough, as Galo's colleague, Aina Ardebit, sends them off to the frozen lake. Infuriated by the abuse done toward his people, Lio unleashes all his hatred, turning into a giant flame dragon and burning down the city, with the intention of confronting Kray. Meanwhile, Freeze Force manage to track down and recapture all of the Burnish population but Lio, who is sent into a nearby volcano by his companions. Galo objects to this plan, but Kray orders the soldiers to arrest Galo for treason. He reveals that the abilities of the Burnish can be used to create a warp drive, which he intends to use to flee Earth with a select portion of humanity. Before they escape, Lio tells Galo that Kray is capturing Burnish for human experiments, shocking Galo as he worshipped Kray after the latter saved his life several years ago.Īfter Galo confronts Kray, he informs him that the Earth will soon be destroyed by an uncontrollable surge of magma from the earth's core.

He sees Lio failing to revive a mortally injured Burnish using a mouth-to-mouth flame transfer technique.

However, Lio and the other Burnish prisoners break themselves free, and escape to a cave near a frozen lake, where Galo just happens to be nearby. As Galo succeeds in the mission of taking down the Mad Burnish, including their leader, Lio Fotia, they are sent to prison by Freeze Force, a police force owned by the city governor, Kray Foresight. The team responds to incidents involving Mad Burnish, a group of radical Burnish accused of being terrorists. Thirty years later, Galo Thymos is a member of the firefighting group Burning Rescue living in the city of Promepolis. Certain humans developed pyrokinetic abilities during and subsequent to the event, and become known as the Burnish.
