Yu-Gi-Oh!: Perils of the Night

Luna

Character Sheet

Image

Character Name:
Luna Abbott

Age:
16

Personality:
A chaotic girl who doesn't know the meaning of the words "calm down," Luna tends to be the type to take things too far in every situation. This has manifested in the past in various ways, some of which are:
1. Punching her second-grade "boyfriend" in the neck when "breaking up" with him because he "cheated on her" by hugging another girl. (That girl was his cousin. Luna did not forgive him.)
2. Inventing a tarot system using regular playing cards in order to attempt to divine the answers to a yearly test in fourth-grade that would occur the week after she "figured out" the "magic." (This somehow succeeded and she still occasionally uses the "magic cards" to try to figure out how to handle important things.)
3. Breaking a handheld video game system's screen by headbutting it when in last place in a racing game. (She finished in fourth place.)
4. Winning her sixth grade track-meet because another student made her mad by stealing her water-bottle. (Nobody knows why this was her response to that particular "offense.")
5. And countless other examples.

She's a hardheaded almost-narcissist who loves gambling and picking fights, whether they be literal or figurative, and tends to win those she starts. She's regarded by her schoolmates as either "really cool" (which is only said under duress about half the time) or "a total loser," depending on which group of students you ask. Adults tend to (rightfully) consider her a troublemaker and a slacker, the latter of which titles she wears with pride.

The last thing of note about Luna is that she considers herself a "punk" and tends to listen to music that correlates with that self-given descriptor, usually at a loud volume from headphones that she always wears around her neck but rarely on her ears. Her phone, mp3 player, and headphones are some of her most prized possessions.

Background:
Luna has grown up in a middle-class household and rarely wanted for anything. When she did, it was usually because she was in trouble with her parents, which was relatively often, actually. She lived most of her life in a town near Old Domino City, but as of her 15th birthday, she and her younger brother (12 at the time, currently 13) have been living with their aunt and uncle in an urban town just outside the city she grew up in, a fact that she both hates outright and hates to think about.

A week before she began living with her aunt and uncle, her parents were killed by a drunk driver. Their car was totaled, but for unknown reasons their bodies were never found. The police have never publicly released a report on what happened to them, other than that they were presumed dead. After a week of packing for her and her brother, the two moved in with their mother's brother and his wife on Luna's birthday, a day that now only reminds her of her parents.

Recently, her brother has gotten her into Duel Monsters, a card game that he greatly enjoys. To be blunt, the main reason Luna started playing, aside from it being an escape from her life that she could enjoy with her brother, is that her new school has a rather large "underground gambling ring" where the main attraction is playing Duel Monsters for prizes. So far she's used her brother's deck to win a rare structure deck for herself based around the Egyptian Gods from the show. However, she lost a good half of these cards in subsequent duels and has had to try to rebuild it from its damaged state. This has resulted in her current deck being quite different than it began, but with help from her brother who is much more knowledgeable about the game she's managed to craft something relatively usable.

Two days ago, she packed up her portable video games, her phone and mp3 player, her headphones, a few changes of clothes, and some money she stole from her uncle's wallet, and has run away from home for the second time since her parents' death. Her brother was unaware of this, but she left him a note; at least he gets treated decently by their guardians, unlike Luna. The last thing she grabbed was her incomplete Duel Monsters deck, in the hopes that its popularity would mean opportunities to gamble if she needed more cash.

Symphony on High

Marrie Knight

While her initial plan had failed, her secondary idea seemed to be working. Maybe they'd be able to talk things out after all! That was the thought that died in her mind as the leader of the homeless shouted something about his "pale guards." She didn't have any time, there was three pale-guards attacking Sovereign, and-... And another giving out water. That was either a very bad sign or something that could be overlooked. She had only a second to decide, so she did. A melody was cast.

{Silver Beam - Rain - Scatter - If Foe - Damage X}

As she fired the prelude beam of the rain of destruction into the air, Marrie was terrified that she may have made a mistake that would hurt the homeless people around her. She only intended to harm the paleguards, the man with the bare boned arm, and the water bottles that were outside the truck, but she knew that it was likely she'd overlooked something. She desperately wished she could do more, but even this was probably the strongest and most costly melody she'd ever cast.

As she raced towards the back of the group, towards the paleguard there, so too did her mind. With any luck, the three espers would be able to handle the other people relatively peacefully once the ringleader and his dark-souls minions were out. Plus, there was the chance that the water being handed out was the only water that might be dangerous. Of course, it was also possible that by "some of" the leader had meant "most of" as well. Suddenly, Marrie wished she knew how to Purify...

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Perils of the Night

@RickyG85
Right, the link is why I'm asking. In Advanced, there are cards that are flat out banned, but in Traditional, those cards are Limited instead.

But having now read the story excerpt too, I think I've got the gist of it. Though considering how many monsters are giant, that limits a ton of archetypes, and field spells too probably. Still, I'll see what I can come up with and PM you when I have something.

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Perils of the Night

I'd like to run my custom card by you while I still think over this, since it being accepted or rejected will decide what deck I go with if I join. So I'll come up with something and throw it in a hider here or pm, whichever you prefer. (Since you said to pm CSs, after all)

For the record, I haven't read the entirety of the opening info yet, I'm trying to get mechanics info before story info, so sorry if you answered this in the story section, but: is the banlist Advanced or Traditional format? It doesn't really matter for me personally, but it might be useful to know for others or for second decks.

And lastly, are there any story-banned cards? I'm guessing the Egyptian Gods are banned, for example?

Disgaea - Join the Netherworld Support Force

I'm saying this here to avoid clogging up the OOC, but I'm going to have to bow out. Sorry. Didn't want to end up ghosting after expressing interest here. I hope the RP goes well, though!

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!

Symphony on High

Marrie Knight

Sovereign, huh? Well, despite the somewhat pretentious codename, she seemed like a decent person. She didn't quite get a chance to reply before she had to go quiet to listen to the speech. Whoever was giving it was certainly a good orator. It wasn't all that dissimilar to a preacher of any of the one true gods that were out there, at least. Probably thought himself one of them, too. But wait, purified the water? That really wasn't something she wanted to hear.

When the homeless started pouring out into view, though, Marrie blanched. The chance of innocent people getting hurt, or worse killed, was now much higher than she was comfortable with. As Sovereign stated the mostly obvious, Marrie ran her eyes over the "cultist" group. Something didn't seem quite right here. Didn't the speaker say his "appendage" was white? Did he mean that literally or was she thinking too hard about this? She was roused from her deepening thoughts by Sovereign pointing out what was hopefully another (friendly) esper on a nearby roof. How had she not noticed her before? Her bad habits of overthinking and getting too distracted by her own thoughts only gave her further pause. The bad feeling in her gut was getting even worse, but she wasn't going to let things go to shit this time.

Sovereign seemed to be letting her make the decision on an approach. The sight of her firearm reassured her a bit. Being a mostly melee-focused fighter herself, having a ranged esper there was good. Marrie took a deep breath, squared her shoulders, and did her best to focus.

"If you don't know the person on the roof, that makes two of us. Since they haven't attacked us, I just hope they're friendly." She glanced at the semi and back to Sovereign as she pulled Apexer Predator out of her sleeve, letting some of its mostly contracted chain dangle next to it. "If you're not for stealth, that's fine, but you have a range advantage on me. I do have an idea though. If I mess it up, I'm screwed, so some cover fire would be great. Just please try not to kill anyone if you can avoid it."

With that said, Marrie began to cast a melody, aimed about 150 feet (45.7 meters) in front of the truck's path. With any luck, she wouldn't get instantly run over.

{Bronze Spawn - Blink}

This stupid idea was a huge risk, but if someone was going to get hurt, better her than anyone else.

Digimon: Fallen Knights

Kari Primrose

---

"Humans aren't real. They're just stories that bored Digimon came up with to pass the time."

Well, that made some sense, at least. There were plenty of stupid people who denied dinosaurs exist, well, existed, it would make sense for a dinosaur to deny that humans exist, especially if it's from another world entirely. At least this thing didn't seem hostile, and Kari was just beginning to lower her guard when another "digimon," she assumed, showed itself. A head with legs, and one that seemed more aggressive, based on what it was saying.

Really wish that I had some prep time before this... Would be nice to have a knife. Actually... She had just finished her thought and was about to speak when Isaac made a better point. Was there some sort of digimon collective, a city or something, that they could use as a starting point? Surely other digimon would have information on the world the humans found themselves in, it would just be a matter of finding some that were sympathetic to them. Which if the angels were telling the truth about needing them to save the world, should be most of them.

As she began talking, she found herself relaxing again. "That's a really good point. Surviving off the land isn't really in my skill-set. I sort of doubt it's in any of yours, either, so finding a place with food, water, and shelter should be our first priority. We might even find these 'partners' we're supposed to find there, too. Plus, if we can stock up on gear it would probably help with saving the world or going back home or anything else."

Symphony on High

Marrie Knight

Marrie had spent the past few weeks after the Diver incident mostly recovering, and reassuring her mother over texts and calls that she had survived with little problem. Not exactly the truth, she knew, but making her worry even more wouldn't be a good idea. Luckily, her second-floor apartment wasn't horribly damaged from the incident, so she could show video of it to "prove" that things were relatively okay. There were even a few government subsidies for rent, so she would have to thank G.E.M.I.N.I. for that.

As she prepared to head out for the newest job from Shimr, she couldn't help but wonder how Stacy and the others from Maverick Alternative were handling the rising tensions. Once she'd grabbed her things, including her new pistol she had invested in after quite a lot of thought, she went outside to the alleyway behind the building and transformed. A quick glance over her things to make sure she didn't forget any of it, and she was on her new bike and headed to the Micromart.

When she arrived, Marrie noticed another girl there, one who was wearing a mask. So she got off her bicycle and spoke up to her, pulling out her phone with Shimr loaded. "Hey, what are you doing here? Here for some water or are you just wandering?" Sure it wasn't the most subtle way to announce her status as a Freelancer, but it was better than flat-out saying it.

Marrie paused a moment after her question. She was getting a terrible feeling of deja vu. Memories of her first job in Pax sprung to mind, the battle with the Monkeys and the Bees, those horrible, horrible memories. She was glad she had been able to compartmentalize what had happened that day, but times like these still brought a terrible feeling to her mind.

Marrie shuddered, both from her memories and anxiety. Hopefully this wouldn't turn out like that had.
