[OOC] Yu-Gi-Oh: Spirit

[UnendingEmpire]

Map and Key

Founded at an unknown time by the Anima family, Anima City has evolved into a walled hub for all things Duel Monsters. Quite large, it's about 700 miles straight across and boasts eight very different districts with walls of their own.

Red: Ruby District:
Better known as tourist central. Visitors to the city from faraway are usually the ones living here, and many small businesses have set up shop here to attract the tourists. While largely restaurants and gift shops, there are still shops for stuff related to Duel Monsters here.

Green: Emerald District:
Anima City's park to end all parks. This massive nature reserve has been mindful in its construction to be extra-careful not to disturb the plants or animals living here. The walls here are a little higher than other districts to keep certain animals from slipping out into the Ruby or Sapphire districts, and City Security is a little tighter around here for the same reason. Still, if you love the sight of nature, Emerald District is by far the city's best front-row seat.

Gray: Obsidian District:
Every tree bears a few bad apples. Likewise, every city has a few bad neighborhoods. As both a blessing and a curse, Anima City's bad neighborhoods are all in one place: the Obsidian District. It's where the poor and desperate prowl the streets, with crime and danger at every corner. Not a good place to wander into, and certainly not a good place to live. City Security has all but given up on even bothering to defend this place.

Purple: Amethyst District:
The local industrial section, the Amethyst District is where one will find many factories, banks, corporate headquarters, and so forth. Mostly commercial with almost no residential space (though some Obsidian District residents prefer to sleep in the warehouses here rather than at their own homes) it is a dream come true for any business-lover. The DuelCorp factories are all here, which produce DUel Disks, Duel Runners, Duel Monsters cards, and more.

Yellow: Topaz District:
The dueling hub of the dueling hub, Topaz District houses all things Duel Monsters fans could ever want. Take a swing by any of the Duel Arcades for a game against the DuelBots, or head to the aptly-named Duelist Plaza, where countless duelists gather and duel for fun or for competition. Look overhead if you so desire, and take a gander at Turbo Highway, which wraps around the entire district and serves as grounds for Turbo Duels. Or maybe apply for classes at the local Duel Academy. The local Duel Monsters stadium - recently constructed by G-Chronus Timepieces - is also in this district.

Orange: Quartz District:
If Emerald District can be considered a place of nature, than Quartz District can be considered a place of machines. Easily the most high-tech part of the city, this district's houses and businesses have technology to spare, and many electronic-savvy residents of the city take up residence here. Possibly as a side effect, it has a pretty bad pollution problem. Still a nice place to hang around if you like shiny gadgets, though.

Blue: Sapphire District:
One of the larger districts in town and certainly the most populated, Sapphire District is almost entirely residential. For people who want to live the suburban dream, take up residence in the southern or eastern parts of town. To those who dream of urban skyscrapers and living in a "big city" kind of area, the northen or western parts of this district are a dream come true. People of all sorts live here, be they friendly or not, rich or poor (but not Obsidian poor) or even duelist or non-duelist.

White: Diamond Centre:
Located roughly in the middle of Anima City is Diamond Centre, where the elites of society take up residence. The corporate headquarters of G-Chronus Timepieces is located here. However, aside from this sole landmark, and the affluence of its residents, Diamond Centre is altogether unremarkable.

Welcome to Anima City, the bustling metropolis home to a great many things. New and veteran duelists alike could benefit from a round against the DuelBots of the local Duel Simulator, or Turbo Duelists could take to the aptly-named Speed Highway to challenge others of their kind. Whatever your dueling needs, Anima City has it. It's also a place for plenty of local conspiracy theories.

Specifically, recent rumor around town is that the current CEO of G-Chronus Timepieces is using the company's new Duel Disk to harvest energy and turn otherwise-lifeless playing cards into real life monsters, though no theories state his intentions. While he himself admits that one of his main goals is to study such phenomena as spirit partners and the heart of the cards using internal trackers on the batteries of these Duel Disks, he says the fascination ends as fascination. At the Anima Duel Stadium - a massive dome in the dead center of the city - the CEO in question is hosting another Duel Monsters tournament; something he's been doing a lot lately. And the entrants?

That's where you come in. For whatever reason, be it personal or not, you've signed up for the second annual G-Clock Open, using one of the Duel Disks provided by G-Chronus Timepieces as per the tournament's rules. Grab your Duel Disk, shuffle your deck, and win this together with your spirit partner! Whether you're from the run-down Obsidian District of town, whether you're an autonomous DuelBot (yes, because robots) or whether you're the champion of the first G-Clock Open, you've signed up, and now it's time to run this tournament start to finish! Who knows what else might be behind the scenes?

Rules

Yeah, I don't like 'em either, but somebody's gotta write them down, right?

I: Have fun. I cannot stress this enough.

II: You joined this RP because you want to be here, right? Participating in an RP is a little more than just posting in the IC. It's joining in the OOC too, and having your own ideas to throw us in an unexpected direction. Just run those ideas by me first, in case they're a bit much ^_^;

III: Custom cards are allowed, but they'll need to be run by either myself or one of my two co-GMs (Kuragari13 & RolePlayerRoxas) before anything's official. As long as they aren't too broken, you should be okay.

IV: You have a favorite villain, right? Stick their name underneath your character's picture in the CS so I know you read this.

V: Fighting in the IC is fine. I actually approve of conflict, since that's what keeps a story moving. However, even if your characters are trying to rip each others' heads off in the IC, let's not do that in the OOC. Not getting along with other RPers causes one to lose interest in the RP and eventually leave, and that's what kills an RP. So be friendly with one another.

CS

Just fill it out, post it here, and wait for your mighty Jell-O Lord of a GM to approve or say what needs some fine-tuning. The CS is fairly simple, so it shouldn't take too long. Here goes...

Known Cards: (two or three cards you'll be using in most of your duels)

Spirit Partner: (This monster should generally be below Level 4, with 1000 ATK at the most. In the event that your deck has no such monsters, your weakest one will suffice. I'd also like anywhere from a few sentences to a paragraph on your spirit partner's personality, but this isn't exactly necessary)

Fill this in for custom cards

a.k.a. probably the thing you'll be filling out most if you made a deck from your own cards. If you happen to use yugiohcardmaker, sending me images of the cards you make is also fine, but this is mostly to ensure nothing in the RP is crazy broken like Fire Fists or the infamous Yata-Garasu. I'll keep the submitted cards in one database just above here, so that we know what's what and what's not what.

Shana

I can't actually think of a favourite villain of mine.

• Name: Shana Anderson


• Age: 19


• Gender: Female


• Personality: Loud and bombastic, Shana tackles everything in life with extreme cheer and hot-blooded zest. Rarely seen without a smile, and never without her hat, the fiery duelist gives it her all to have a fun duel. She loves all things cute. 'Cute' in this case being anything with a fire motif.
  Shana plays recklessly in her duels, rarely thinking ahead and dealing only with the present situation. Given the nature of her deck, inherited from her father, this tends to be a very bad idea. Shana, however, simply has fun with the duel and doesn't care much for the outcome.
  
  Shana has very few berserk buttons, though putting down her deck is an obvious one. Insulting her family is another, as she takes great pride in her family's history of being notable duelists at small-time tournaments, or firefighters. And in one case, a stage magician well-known for the Noodle Scandal. She's also difficult to really upset, though this also means she tries to inject cheer into an atmosphere that doesn't really fit the situation, though she doesn't mean any harm or offence.


• Brief Bio: Shana hails from a family of duel enthusiasts, which at first, put her off dueling altogether. Having her siblings, parents and grandparents and everyone else rave about its awesomeness simply made her think it couldn't be all that good. Her father, a firefighter and the original user of Shana's current deck, was especially bad at overhyping the game in an attempt to have her play.
  Shana, being a tad more childish and unwilling to listen at this time, ignored all the insistence and refused to acknowledge it. At least until there was a serious fire that led her to believe her father had died tackling the blaze at some point. Thankfully, this turned out to be a false alarm, but it had scared Shana enough to apologise for denouncing a game he, and everyone else ever it seemed, loved to play, and finally decided to give it a try.
  
  For the past couple of years, Shana has been using the deck her father made, and although she has far from mastered it, she refuses to alter it and wants only to enjoy the thrill of dueling that she had missed out on for a very long time. Not too long after she started dueling, Shana started seeing images of one of her cards. At first, she dismissed it as a strange glitch with her duel disk, but it quickly became apparent she was seeing... something. This was somewhat troubling at first, but Flikkar quickly proved to be a kind spirit that shared her passion for dueling.
  
  Recently, she had heard news of the tournament being held, and while she was initially going to just ignore it in favour of local duels, Flikkar eventually convinced her otherwise. After all, new opponents in a new setting would surely make for more fun duels than the same old stuff. Shana herself doesn't really care about winning it, she just wants to play as much as possible.


• Deck Type: "Judgment Flame" (custom). A FIRE-archetype with Burn elements that affect both players, requiring careful maintenance of card effects.


• Key Card: Sword Master of the Judgment Flame


• Known Cards: Sword Master Of The Judgment Flame, Ignition of the Judgment Flame, Backfire.


• Spirit Partner: Judgment Flame Flikkar (a monster that's nothing more than a small flame that constantly seems ready to extinguish)


• VA:


• Battle theme: Unfitting Song Used Mainly For Mentions Of Flames And Also Being A Goddamn Awesome Song

Looks good so far. I'll start adding the Judgment Flame cards to the main post now.

Furthermore, I won't have my CSes done by the end of today, and since this library is closed on both Sunday and Monday, I won't be around to post them until Tuesday. Until then, you and Kuragari are in charge of taking custom card applications and accepting/declining them.

[VarionusNW]

I think doing duels on here would be a bit difficult,i would rather have it more random, so maybe use Proxies on dueling network (using a card, but having it stand in place of the card you actually want there, aka using a flamvell magician, but having it be the proxy for some monster you came up with)
Also, there are some dueling programs that allow custom card creation, but i cant recall the names of them, one is more like Devpro, but i have never actually used the interface, the other is sort of like DN, with it being browser based, but the sign up was not working. so proxies may be the best bet.
doing duels on here could result in perfect plays and mass cheating, with a program its actually fun, random, and not tedious.
trust me, i know the tediousness of writing out a duel (i am writing a Yu-Gi-Oh! Fanfic.)

[RolePlayerRoxas]

It's much faster to just play the duels through the posts, plus there's nothing stopping you with discussing the duel's details with your opponent.

Not to mention, we trust the players not to cheat or manipulate events just to win all the time, and not everyone is going to want to make an account/download a program to emulate duels.

[UnendingEmpire]

If it comes down to it, we'll have to go with the proxy idea. I'd prefer not to though, as DN won't let me connect from a library computer (outdated browser?) and as stated, I am trying to trust you guys to not cheat at this. We'll have to see where this goes, though.

[Tenebrous Gaze]

Cheating wouldn't be a massive problem. Just have the GM random up what card is drawn or the results of a flip/roll if needed. Plus, another big benefit of play-by-post duels is that you can do long duels in chunks rather than all at once if one person is short on time or multitasking.

Will work on my character, which will be a light-fairy deck with an archetype called "Celestial Seekers" which is based upon spies, space and magic because my mind is weird.

[UnendingEmpire]

Tenebrous Gaze said Just have the GM random up what card is drawn or the results of a flip/roll if needed.

I also considered this, then promptly realized it'd be unfair advantage when I duel.
Then I realized that I have two co-GMs. If I duel, one of them can do the rolls (probably Roxas since we have more hours in common) and if I duel a co-GM, the other can do rolls.

For now, I'm still trusting players with their own draws and hoping they won't A: cheat, or B: use the same combos every duel, but if it comes down to it this will be the system used to determine that stuff ^_^

EDIT: and yeah, go for them fairies. They need more love.

[Tenebrous Gaze]

Is an image compulsory? I find it really hard to find images that look like how I want a character to look.

If it is, does anyone have recommendations for where to look?

[VarionusNW]

do you know how actually difficult it would be to win a duel in play by post? that face down, could be the exact card i need at any given time (given the decks limit) along with every card in the hand. doing the proxies would result in the randomness needed to have duels be fun. at most, duels should take 30 minutes, at minimum 5-10 minutes.

If we were to try the proxies, we could at least set up times that would be good for everyone, which should not be too difficult.
aka, time zones.
(for me, EST (GMT -5:00)

[RolePlayerRoxas]

Um, like we've been saying, we trust the players. If we have to, we PM the cards you draw and thus have records of what you have available. Plus, every Yugioh RP I've been in has been play-by-post, and someone always wins in the end. That's how it works.

[IVIasterJay]

Hey Unending do you mind if I use the same characters from that other Yugioh RP that died out a while ago? I'd just have to change their bios around, but their decks are already fully made.

[Keyblade87]

Yubel
Name: Gao Hikari

Age: 19

Gender: Male

Personality: Bold and Cheerful. Gao is always looking for a good time he enjoys dueling and being around people. Most people find him a bit odd but he doesn't mind. With the deck he inherited from his mother he feels nearly invincible but he knows his deck has a slight weakness to it. In all of his duels he almost immediately became serious and focused solely on the duel thinking of almost every possible outcome and anyway he could win. While he loves being around people he truly prefers being around animals and will do anything he can to help an animal in need. Before receiving his deck Gao went through a darker period only caring about winning even hurting one of his friends in the process, that caused him to re-think everything he did until his mother gave him her deck.

Brief Bio: Gao started dueling at age 8 building his own deck gradually. His parents said he had a natural talent for it and eventually decided to help him work toward his goal of being one of the best in the world. One day while playing with his friends Gao became angered at his inability to beat his friends new deck and lashes out in anger striking his friendb in the chest. After that day Gao became less dark and more inverted thinking carefully about everything he said or did he even stopped playing Duel Monsters all together until his 12th birthday. On his 12th birthday his mother pulled him aside and handed him a deck. She told him that seeing her son unhappy made her unhappy herself and she wanted nothing more than for him to be happy. At first Gao was afraid to touch it but after she explained that it was the same deck she used as a little girl and contained some of her favorite monsters Gao took it and left to go appologize to the friend he had hurt. Gao has used that deck ever since even discovering his own spirit monster within that deck. He now duels to prove that you don't always need the newest cards to win as well as proving to himself that winning isn't everything and that he's only playing a game.

Deck Type: Crystal Beasts: Able to become continuous spell cards upon their destruction allowing them to have immense staying power. Coupled with plenty of support cards that make up fr their lack in attack power.

Key Card: Rainbow Dragon/Rainbow Neos

Known Cards: Crystal Beast Topaz Tiger, Crystal Beast Ruby Carbuncle, Crystal Beast Amber Mammoth

Spirit Partner: Crystal Beast Ruby Carbuncle; Gao tends to call the monster Ruby because of the card name. He met her while dueling with the Crystal Beast deck that his mother gave him. She is perky and playful but has a tendency to be a coward.

[RolePlayerRoxas]

Okay, think I've gotten everything I need down in my profile by now.

@Keyblade: Your appearance seems to be broken, though I don't know if that's just me. The bio's also put down twice, but aside from that, I'm not seeing anything too objectionable. Empire will have the last word on that, though. He should be able to confirm by tomorrow.

[Tenebrous Gaze]

This is still a work in progress but I'd like some feedback, especially on whether the Celestial Seekers are a good power level, as I know that there's room for improvement in them.

Celestial Seekers

The Celestial Seekers are an archetype who, in terms of the fictional story, are an organisation of spies who use a form of magic learned from aliens to achieve their missions.
Their main theme is that they all have different effects based upon whether they are DEF or ATK which represents whether they are covert or active.

Celestial Seeker Operative 001: Ifanc
(Image: A young-looking man with his face wrapped in a white scarf and wearing a tattered black overcoat standing on in a moon-like crater)
Level 4
Light
Fairy/Tuner
ATK 1000 | DEF 1000
You can banish a "Celestial Seeker" card except "Celestial Seeker Ifanc" from your graveyard to special summon this card from your hand in defense mode.If this card is in ATK mode: If this card would be sent to the graveyard, it can be equipped to another "Celestial Seeker" monster. It is then treated as an equip spell card and adds 800 ATK and DEF. If this card is in DEF mode: If a "Celestial Seeker" monster is in your graveyard, this card can be counted as two tributes for the tribute summon of a LIGHT attribute Fairy-type monster.

Celestial Seeker Operative 002: Chwilio
(Image: A woman with long hair obscuring her face and wearing black clothing jumping between two alien-looking silver buildings with a red sky behind her.)
Level 3
Light
Fairy/Tuner
ATK 1200 | DEF 1000
If this card is in ATK mode: When this card is banished or sent to the graveyard, you can special summon 1 "Celestial Seeker" monster from your hand or deck. If this card is in DEF mode: When this card is destroyed by battle, you can send one monster from your field to the grave and special summon one "Celestial Seeker" monster from your graveyard.

Celestial Seeker Operative 003: Darian
(Image: A man wearing black and white body armour, including a helmet obscuring his face hiding behind a crate.
Level 4
Light
Fairy/Tuner
ATK 800 | DEF 1900
No battle damage is taken from a battle involving this monster and another monster. If this card is in ATK mode: When a LIGHT Fairy-type monster is attacked, you can make this card the target of the attack and add half of the originally targeted monsters ATK to this card's ATK until your next end phase. If this card is in DEF mode: When a monster attacks a "Celestial Seeker" monster, flip a coin and if it lands on heads, activate the following effect; The targeted monster's ATK and DEF are doubled for damage calculation.

Celestial Seeker Operative 004: Laif
(Image: A grey-skinned humanoid wearing a black and white headband and hiding behind a corner with a white glow around their hand.
Level 6
Light
Fairy/Effect
ATK 2400 | DEF 1600
If this card is in ATK mode: This card's ATK can be halved until the end phase. It can then attack twice this turn. If this card is in DEF mode: Once per turn if a monster with an ATK lower than this card's ATK attacks a "Celestial Seeker" monster, destroy that monster.

Celestial Seeker Operative 005: Tywyll
(Image: Two white eyes and a vauge circular shape hidden in darkness)
Level 6
Light
Fairy/Effect
ATK 2000 | DEF 2000
If this card is in ATK mode: When a monster you control is attacked, that attack can be negated. If the attack is negated, then place this card face-up in a Spell & Trap card zone as a continuous spell card. If you have no monsters on the field you can special summon this card from the Spell & Trap zone with the effect "This card can halve its ATK until the end phase in order to attack directly." If this card is in DEF mode: When a monster you control is attacked, that attack can be negated. If the attack is negated, control of this monster is changed to your opponent, this card's original ATK and DEF are reduced to 0 and this card's effect is changed to "This card can not be used as a tribute, as fusion material, synchro material or XYZ material."

Celestial Seeker Operative X: Anghenfill
(Image: A creature with black and white scales, incredibly large claws and glowing red eyes staring directly out of the card.)
Level 9
Light
Fairy/Effect
ATK ? | DEF ?
This card can not be special summoned and can only be tribute summoned by tributing three monsters and "Anghenfill" can not be tributed to summon this card. This card's original ATK and DEF are equal to the total ATK and DEF of the cards tributed to summon it. If this card is in ATK mode: When this card destroys another monster in battle, this card's ATK and DEF are raised by the 400 if the destroyed monster's level is four or lower, by 600 if the monster's level is between 5 and 8 and by 800 if the monster's level is 9 or higher. If this card is in DEF mode: You can banish two LIGHT Fairy-Type monsters from your hand or graveyard and all monsters must be switched to face-up ATK position and no flip effects are activated.

Celestial Seeker Operative 000: Phrif
(Image: A tall man wearing a black longcoat with stars on it. Many alien-looking silhouettes are behind him.)
Level 8
Light
Fairy/Effect
ATK 2500 | DEF 2000
This card can be special summoned by banishing one "Celestial Seeker" monster from your hand, field or graveyard. If this card is in ATK mode: When this card is destroyed by battle, special summon LIGHT Fairy-Type monsters from your hand and graveyard except "Phrif", with a total ATK of at most the ATK of this card. If this card is in DEF mode: Once per turn, inflict damage to your opponent equal to 300 times the amount of monsters on the field.

Astral Base Cryfder
(Image: A large space-station shaped like a large eye floating in space)
Field Spell
This card's name is also treated as "The Sanctuary in the Sky". Once per turn, a "Celestial Seeker" monster can change to DEF mode after attacking. When a "Celestial Seeker" monster is sent from the field to the graveyard, attach one Truth Counter to this card. When this card has three Truth Counters, you can remove them and activate one of these effects:
Special summon one LIGHT Fairy-type monster from your hand. This summon can not be negated, no effect can be activated in response to this summon and this summon ignores any card effects which would prevent it.
Move one spell or trap card from your graveyard to your hand.
Chose up to three face-down cards on your opponent's side of the field. They must reveal these cards.

Villain=I just can't pick. Far too many.

Name: Aeron Walsingham

Age: 16

Gender: Male

Personality: Aeron attempts to create an air of serious mystery around himself and to the casual observer may seem to be some kind of base thug or man of mystery but anyone who spends long enough with him will realize that it's just a facade to make himself seem more intimidating, while he is really just fairly calm and highly inquisitive. As he values knowledge highly, he is fairly secretive about himself and can often be found rooting through people's stuff or eavesdropping to find things out about them. When it comes to dueling, he plays more for fun than with any aims of being a professional.

Brief Bio: Aeron was born to a poor family in a city far away and was orphaned as a child, before being taken in by a criminal who had taken a liking to him. He was brought up to follow in the man's footsteps, being taught everything from pick-pocketing to major fraud but also gradually started learning to duel, although he could never pick what kind of cards he wanted to use.

At a point in his life, Aeron pick-pocketed Ifanc's card from somebody and was surprised when it started to speak to him, initially chastising him for stealing it but eventually warming to it. As he grew up and became better at dueling he collected other Celestial Seekers and light fairies, building a deck around them.

Shortly after, his criminal guardian struck lucky with credit card fraud and fled from the country, the two of them now incredibly rich. They secured false identities and moved to Anima city, having gone from dirt-poor to filthy rich and his guardian becoming richer and richer due to investments. Now free to pursue his interests, Aeron became more focused on both his quest for knowledge and, with Ifanc's help, dueling.

Deck Type: Light/Fairy, Celestial Seekers (custom) archetype.

Key Card: Celestial Seeker Operative 001: Ifanc

Known Cards: All of the Celestial Seekers but additionally Master Hyperion. Fairy Archer, Honest, Solidarity, Valhalla, Hall of the Fallen.

Spirit Partner: Celestial Seeker Operative 001: Ifanc
He is a rookie in the magical space spy operation of the Celestial Seekers and constantly seems to have something to prove, wanting victory in battle and success in life and living out his desires through Aeron. He shares Aeron's great thirst for knowledge and is constantly asking questions.

Aeron learned of the tournament when he accidentally took a flyer whilst pickpocketing someone who had cut in line in front of him. He doesn't participate in a lot of contests but, as he had been spending a lot of time practising dueling, decided to enter for fun.

Okay then, here's my standard Yugioh character with his trademark Azure deck. He's a little bit rusty since the last RP he was in died before he got to use his deck.

Image

<3 Yubel

Name: Ian Rouse

Age: 19

Gender: Male

Personality: Ian is cool, calm, and collected. Seriously, if his heartbeat was any slower somebody would have to take down time of death. He is almost impossible to get a reaction out of, barring the use of high voltage. He always seems to be sort of distant, detached from things, but even so he is usually in a mildly good mood. In a duel, he tends to look down on his opponents, even if they are winning, and when he loses he usually laughs as if he knows a joke that his opponent hasn’t seen. Odd as he is, Ian is the most loyal person you’ll ever meet. He would literally go to the ends of the Earth and back to protect a friend from being hurt. Speaking of hurt, Ian hates physical violence. He has a history of thrashing members of rival gangs that he sees using violence with his terrifying modified cattle prod. Hypocrite? For sure, but he doesn’t care.

Brief Bio: Ian doesn’t talk about his past, but from what others have been able to get out of him, he apparently ran away from a bad home. Whenever he gets close to the subject, he always looks like he’s in pain. His friends know that there are some things a person just doesn’t need to talk about, so they let him keep it to himself.

Though he was born and raised in the worst part of the slums, you wouldn’t be able to guess it from just looking at Ian or even talking to him. Ian is relaxed and patient and always willing to help out a friend in need, or even a stranger on occasion. He got himself into some… stuff a few years ago and was forced into joining the Silver Dragon gang, and it was the best thing that ever happened to him. Ian was shocked at how stupid all of the other members were; even the leader was an idiot. Ian beat them all in duels, and then beat a few that refused to concede with a modified cattle prod. Sure the gang only had ten members at the time, but it still seemed like a huge thing to him at the time. Yeah, those were fun times. The old gang leader, Cybell Yvenstar, and Ian have an unstable relationship, which the other gang members have oh so eloquently summed up in four simple words which they often yell at the rival leaders, which are: “Get a room already!”

Ian saw his spirit partner for the first time one day when he was walking around the more affluent districts of Anima City. It felt that Ian could see it, and it begged for him to rescue it. Within a week, Ian had taken the Azure cards for himself and left one rich card collector without riches or collection. You don’t fight back against a boy when he holds all your secrets you don’t want the world knowing in the palm of his hands, poised to be spread across the web with the press of a key.

Ian's reason for entering the tournament is quite benign actually; Azure Child saw a poster for it and begged Ian to enter. His spirit monster could feel that Ian really wanted to enter but wouldn't have on his own, so Azure Child didn't stop pestering him until he'd signed up. Ian's gang members are looking forward to seeing him wreck the competition and win it all.

Deck Type: Azure

Key Card: Azure Sin

Known Cards: Azure Innocent , Azure Angel , Azure Waterfall

Spirit Partner: Azure Child
Azure Child doesn’t see the cool, rough persona that Ian put up. As an empath, he sees Ian as he is on the inside, a kind boy scared of being hurt by others. Azure Child frequently reacts to things how Ian would react if he wasn’t acting all Joe Cool.

NOTE: Everything past here is just for fun, but feel free to do them if you want.

The Azure Archetype

The Azure are a race of empaths who each feel the pain of those around them and as such are all pacifists. But the sapphire tears of the Azure are incredibly valuable, and their world was decimated as attackers from across all of time and space forced them to shed their sapphire tears. Years and years of sorrow and fear have culminated in the birth of a small Azure newborn. Whether he will bring back the light of hope or destroy the world with pain is yet to be seen.

The Azure are all Water and Aqua with some exceptions. The Azure focus on banishing themselves to activate their abilities and then summoning themselves back to do it all again. The Azure are mostly impervious to spell cards, with notable exceptions. Their weakness is their miniscule attack of just 300 and the fact that they must remain in attack position or else be destroyed.

Too tired to look at the bios in depth, though I'll try and do so tomorrow. I skimmed the archetypes though, so here's what jumped out to me.

@Gaze: Anghenfill's first effect seems way too strong, and... confusing. It can gain double the total ATK of the tributed Celestials, which is already quite big, but multiplying it by 25 when it destroys a monster? That's either way too much, or not as big as I imagine, but only leads to messy calculations.
The backrow recovery from the Field spell also seems quite strong, to me. I don't know if you're deck's capable of quickly synchro summoning the Celestials off the field for easy counter gathering, though. But still, backrow isn't really something that should be recovered in bulk, I think.

@Jay: Seems like it was accepted before, so I guess there wasn't any issues with the deck. The Fusions don't have materials listed, though. Any two/three Azures, I take it?

I'll get back to these after I sleep. Though if you'd prefer to wait for Empire's word, or Kuragiri's, that's fine.

It was in a different RP, so they will need to be accpted for this one. Each RP has different standards.

The Azure fusion monsters aren't intended to actually be fusion summoned. That's really just placeholder for them to be summoned from the extra deck (kind of like those Neos that had to be summoned with NEX).

Edit: Not like it's going anywhere, so there isn't any rush on reviewing.

Regarding Cryfder I was having some trouble deciding how powerful the effect should be relative to how many Truth Counters it would be but I'm not really sure what to go with.

Anghenfill I can accept is confusing. The effect was meant to be that it had the ATK of all three tributed monsters' ATK put together and the DEF of all three tributed monsters' DEK put together Think Tyrant Neptune but without the effect stealing but with the advantage of doubling that if every monster used was a Celestial Seeker, which I now see is actually kind of powerful given Chwilio and Nova Summoner. On top of that, its ATK mode effect was that if it destroyed a monster, it gained 25 times their level in ATK and DEF (so a level 4 would give it 100 ATK and DEF while a level 12 would give it 300 ATK and DEF) which would be kind of messy but far too powerful if that was 100. I could replace that with another effect but I wanted to keep the effect of it growing more powerful the more it destroyed.

Like I said, all feedback is greatly appreciated and I'll try and figure out how to tone it down.

Okay, I see now. Well, I don't think the deck should cause any serious problems. Possible ludicrous LP gain, but it should be within manageable confines for everyone.

Hm... well, I'd suggest a static ATK boost whenever it destroys something. Drop the double ATK, and have it gain something like 500-800 ATK whenever it destroys something?

Okay, onto the characters themselves.

Aeron: I don't know how Empire would feel about a criminal character, but he could lead to some interesting dynamics with the others. The closest thing to a 'problem' with your deck is Honest, but that's just me being biased. Everything checks out with me, so... let's see what the other two say.

Ian: Not entirely sure about beating people with cattle prods, but Empire would have the final say on that bit. Otherwise... don't think there's anything serious to address.
