[b]Real Name:[/b] Shai Gillespie
[b]Age:[/b] 18

[b]Bio:[/b] Shai was born to a wealthy family, and she had a fairly happy childhood. Always pampered by her parents, she was usually able to get anything she wanted. The family manor really felt like a castle - she had all the space she wanted to play and imagine, although her friends were seldom allowed to visit there. Tragically, her mother passed from a terminal illness when she was at the formative age of thirteen. That shattered her emotionally, and although she eventually recovered, she was never again the bright and happy child she once had been.

She had never been particularly social, thanks to her family's protectiveness. But after the death of her mother she became a true shut-in, isolating herself practically all the time. Her father is still alive, but he's often absent due to mounting responsibilities at work. He is unable to put any pressure on his daughter to change, especially now that her personality has grown somewhat more pointed.

The young woman has spent years engaging with escapist fantasies and games. She has good looks by nature, but doesn't take proper care of herself most of the time. She's a bit out of shape and has alarming dark circles under her eyes from one too many all-nighters. She is often moody, and has developed a certain fixation on the occult. She has nice clothes, generally all black with silver jewelry - striking a definite goth aesthetic.

Duel Monsters was just one of the games she played, but she was drawn to the demons and dark forces depicted within, feeling a certain kinship with them. Defeating her opponents and outplaying their strategies made her feel a certain eager giddiness that was better than her usual emptiness. When the advanced duel system was announced, she made some calls, and was one of the first customers on their list. Now nearly everything is set up, and she's given strict instructions to the house staff that she not be disturbed while she is playing.

[b]Playstyle:[/b] Eternia employs more of a "control" playstyle. Rather than overpowering her opponents with raw strength, she uses the powers of darkness to mitigate threats and turn her opponent's own effects against them.

[b]Duel Partner(s):[/b]

EARTH Monster, Level 3, Warrior. 800 ATK / 700 DEF
A stern woman with a dangerous whip and a leather get-up.

Advanced Duel Effect: Shadow Tamer may take control of 1 enemy fiend-type monster. While controlling a monster, she cannot declare attacks. If the fiend was not a player's duel partner, control can be maintained even outside of battle, until that monster is destroyed.
(Shadow Tamer is always treated as an "Archfiend".)

DARK Monster, Level 2, Fiend. 700 ATK / 600 DEF
A small, dragon-like demon that possesses a mirror with mystical powers.

Advanced Duel Effect: The mirror can divert an enemy monster's attack to any new target, including the original attacker. Afterwards, the mirror becomes inert for two turns. However, the demon can still make its own attacks in this time.

[b]Support Cards:[/b]

[hider=Axe of Despair][img]https://i.imgur.com/7PHj3Xjm.png[/img]
Equip Spell

Advanced Duel Effect: The equipped monster gains 1000 ATK. If this card is in the graveyard: You can Tribute 1 monster; return this card to your hand/library. (Axe of Despair is always treated as an "Archfiend" spell.)

[b]Note:[/b] 1000 attack was a ton when this card came out - it's still somewhat significant today. I chose it because it was on theme and for the tribute effect. We can lower the attack bonus to 800 or so if you think that's more fair
