Yu-Gi-Oh!: Perils of The Night

Update:
@The World@King Cosmos@Digmata

I'm working up details and information for the OOC, hoping to have it done and ready by this weekend.

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Perils of The Night

Only one custom card, huh? That might make it a bit harder for my idea, but I'll at least keep my interest on this while I figure out if I can handle another rp, lol. I'll let you know for sure once an ooc goes up if I'll be able to try to join or not, but I'm at least interested!

@The World

No worries! If we get 1 more definite prospect, I'll be making an OOC.

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Perils of The Night

Master Rules 5 is fine, and so are Links.

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Perils of The Night

I'm in. Always willing to give a Yu-Gi-Oh RP a shot.

Power level is always going to be a tricky one with these and some effects just don't work well for RP purposes; aiming for Arc-V is fine but don't be afraid to buff or nerf people as appropriate.

@King Cosmos

Cool! That's 1, for sure! Nice to see you again, Cosmos, it's been awhile ^_^

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Perils of The Night

UPDATE:

After some careful consideration, I'm going to say "Arc-V" is the power level, with any restrictions coming from the current state of the ban list, but primarily the setting, itself.

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Perils of The Night

I'm going to research this and come up with an answer, but I think you're overthinking this a bit.

I'm concerned that you're focused a little too much on the card game aspect, and I would encourage you to focus more on the character. It's an rp, not a video game/local tournament; think "what would make a better story", not "how do I win".

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Perils of The Night

I'm not sure I understand the question. Are you asking if cards from those eras are available? If they're not on the ban list, I don't see why not. If they only existed within their era without a real card in the game, I'd count it toward the "unique" rule I proposed.

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Perils of The Night

For simplicity sake, keep to the current state of the ban list, which I'll be sure to include a link to in the OOC.

As for power level... somewhere between Duel City and Arc V; it's real magic again, and you're fighting real monsters, but what you're doing is supposed to be secret, so escalating to summoning a big monster that's knocking buildings down right away is discouraged within the setting, even though it's technically an option.

Not sure how this can work, but I am supporting this on principle. I hope this game does well.

@Letter Bee

Thanks?

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Perils of The Night

If the title doesn't make it obvious, I'm imagining a Yugioh type setting, but instead of the usual setting (the world and its technology and society's revolve around this card game for some reason), Duelists are a bit more unique. The card game exists within the setting, for sure, but the magical angle (shadow games etc) is back, and with a horror twist.

Urban Horror; there's a supernatural world/society just beneath the surface of our mundane reality, and The Duelists' Society, with their ability to bring the game to life, secretly protects the world from things that go bump in the night, and occasionally clashing with a shadowy cabal of antagonists they know simply as "The Conspiracy".

If this game gets off the ground, I would ask players have no more than 2 characters, and allow 1 unique (made up) card per player (subject to approval). I haven't decided how running the duels would work, I have a system that has worked pretty well in the past, but there should still be more focus on character interaction and rp.
