[Spoiler=My Application]
[b]Name[/b]: [color="#8B0000"]Lauren Winters[/color]
[b]Age[/b]: 21
[b]Gender[/b]: Female
[b]Appearance[/b]: [color="#A0522D"]With long dark brown hair that fell gently to her shoulders, Lauren Winters takes pride in her hair. When people see her they see the long glistening hair that flows behind her when she runs, the soft blue/green eyes that melt even the strongest men's hearts, and the soft perfectly colored lips. Her hair covered her ears which were slightly bigger then "small" that are curved at the top. Completing the beautiful face of this beautiful girl is her small "cute" nose. To top it off her skin was ever so silky and smooth to the touch, which sent a shiver of excitement through those who touched it. Most of the time when Lauren is seen in public her long hair would a shine to it and is almost always "let down." She felt that it went perfectly with her favorite outfit of a simply school girl skirt, with a sleeveless tank-top that stopped just above the belly-button. Although when this was not an appropriate she would wear an outfit that others saw as oldstyle. She thought that just because that it was out of style didnt mean it wasnt cute, so she wore it anyways. A school girl shirt with a school girl skirt. Short and sweet.[/color]
[b]Biography[/b]: Laurn was born and raised in the Dallas Texas. Lauren lived with her older brothers Jacob and Lewis until she turned 19. On her 19th birthday, Lauren moved out and into a house with her bestfriend Rachael. They lived together until tragedy struck Rachaels family in the form of her mother dieing. This left Lauren to pay the bills on her own and, without Rachael with her, she could not keep her job at the bar as a Bartending duet (since Rachael was absent). She then moved back in with her brothers and made money by holding mini tournaments to see who could defeat her in a duel. Lauren is a moderately happy girl who speaks her mind and rarely tries to hide her feelings. She serves as a few peoples emotional adviser. She is a caring young woman who looks on the bright side of things whenever possible. Although she is normally a calm cool and collected girl, Lauren can be very feisty.
[b]Decks[/b]: Inversion - CC's Rule http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/214122-omg-ccs-monsters/page__p__4476834__fromsearch__1#entry4476834 - Piscu Bounce - Jester's Court Lockdown - Inverted Flash [Turbo] - Super Scraps - Medical Magic - Wicked Speed [Turbo] - Genex - Genex Turbo [Turbo] - Gusta
[b]Duel Disk Style[/b]: Lauren Winters' duel disk resembles Akiza Izinski'z Duel Disk. Akiza Kozaki's duel disk resembles Akiza Izinski'z Duel Disk. Lauren's duel disk is grean and pink. When Lauren removes a card from play the purple ball on Izinzki's Duel Disk opens up. The Extra Deck Resides in a slot on the opposite side of the disk from the card zones.
[b]Duel Runner Style[/b]: Lauren's duel runner resembles Sherry Leblehbleh's duel runner. The duel runner is pink and green and the duel disk is to be inserted in a space infront of Lauren's seat and wh-en activated, the card zones seperate so that the Spell and Trap Card zone is seperated from the Monster Card Zone so that one section is raise above the other. The Spell and Trap Cards are played on the bottom sections while the monsters are played on the top sections. In short it'll look like a bird with 2 sets of wings, 1 set above the other.

[size="1"]I will add more Speed Spells as I think of them[/size]

[Spoiler=FAQ]
1) How many Life Points do we begin with 4000, 8000 or something else?
8000

2) Is it okay if I put a song link before one of my turbo duels so it fits with the Runner?
Of course =D

3) Can you add in how Speed Duels work? For those who don't know the full rules of them.
Speed World 2 is the Speed World being used in this RP.

To start a Turbo Duel, at least 2 players have to activate the "Speed World 2" field spell. "Speed World 2" is a unique Field Spell Card that changes the gameplay of normal duels to create a Turbo Duel with additional rules and gameplay. When Speed World is activated, the duel field is covered in a purple dome caused by the effect of Speed World (No purple dome with "Speed World 2", although the scenery does change sometimes).

Normally, to allow a player to focus on a Duel, when a Turbo Duel is engaged the Duel Runners enter autopilot. This autopilot can be toggled on or off to add to the challenge by requiring the duelist to steer the Duel Runner manually while handling the cards. Auto-pilot is not applied when using Speed World 2.

During each of either player's Standby Phases, 1 Speed Counter is placed on both player's "Speed World 2"; although in the counter is not placed on the first turn. There are also cards which can either decrease or increase the number of Speed Counters on "Speed World". There are even cards that can prevent either player from accumulating Speed Counters.

"Speed World 2" also inflicts 2000 damage to a player's Life Points whenever that player would activate a non-"Speed Spell" Spell Card in a duel.

Also "Speed World 2" has additional effects

If you activate a non-"Speed Spell" Spell Card, take 2000 damage. During each player's Standby Phases, place 1 Speed Counter on this card (max. 12). You can remove any number of Speed Counters from this card to activate an appropriate effect:
● 4: Inflict 800 damage to your opponent for each "Speed Spell" card in your hand.
● 7: Draw 1 card.
● 10: Select and destroy 1 card on the field.

Appearance - Dispite the fact that his last name is Prince he hardly looks anything like most Prince's would. Jayson has long spikey hair which is dyed in a deep Blue, Jayson has done this on purpose to make himself look like his favourite video game character "Sonic the Hedgehog" he has been dubbed "Sonic" because he looks like him according to his peers. Jayson also wears a Blue and White shirt most of it is White but around his shoulders and arms are blue. Jayson wears White pants and Blue Shoes. Jayson is also seen wearing Sun Glasses that also act like a headband. During Turbo Duels he wears a Blue Duel Suit and helmet.
Decks - Blackwing/Gadgets, Level Deck.
Duel Disk Style - Jayson has a Blue Duel Disk that looks similar to those seen in the academies. He has the word "Prince" ingraved in his duel disk in New Times Roman font. There is a compartment that opens up when he activates a Field Spell card. Underneath his duel disk is a box that contains his Extra Deck which is strapped on tightly to prevent being dropped while running or just during a duel.
Duel Runner Style Jaysons Duel Runner is similar to Yusei's runner in terms of Duel Runner body but is alot different in design. Jayson's runner is White with a Blue Flame on both sides, both sides have the words "Jayson" and "Prince" within the flames on seperate sides. Jayson has an inbuilt stereo that connects to his Ipod he usually chooses a song to play before each turbo duel.[/spoiler]

*Name: Keegan Underhill
*Age: 19
*Gender: Male
*Appearance: Keegan is a very tall man for his age, standing at the height of 6'4". He has italian thin style glasses which assist his blue eyes at sight. His hair is moderately short and is a dark black. His usual outfit is a pale blue or grey hoodie with normal blue colored jeans. He also has many scars over his right knee and his arm, making him look, tough per say.
~Biography: Might do one later
*Decks: Machina Synchron, Pineapple Cat, Gadget Variants
*Duel Disk Style: His duel disk is very basic looking, similar to the ones handed out in Battle City, but with some changes. First off, his duel disk is a palish red color, and the lights on the disk, are green. Another thing to mention, is that where his deck would be placed, there is a little compartment below it for his extra deck[/spoiler]
[Spoiler=Shadius]
*Name: Matt Shadius (Lily forced me to do Shadius as a last name XD)

*Age: 20

*Gender: Male

*Appearance: Usually found in t-shirts and a pair of jeans, Matt stands at six feets and holds a lean stature
along with his slightly tanned complexture. As for his hair, the young adult perfers the emo style, usually
covering one of his soft brown eyes with a dark brown bang or simply brushing it to the side so his hair
can frame his face. He also carries a pair of black headphones, usually worn around his neck, that connect
to his matching cellphone. While his apperance can change during the colder months Matt tends to keep to the
same colours and to the same style with the goal of trying to keep a innocent appearence even if he isn't
the innocent type.

*Decks: Dimension DaD (more to come later)

*Duel Disk Style: For his duel disk, Matt uses a generic recoloured academy duel disk. The disk is now
black where it was white and the details were done in a poisoness purple to match his emoish attire.
Besides the recolouring a slot where a extra deck could be kept was added to the back of the disk
for easy access.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Time Psyduck]
Name: Walter Reed
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Appearance: Just over 6 foot tall, with a medium build. He is mostly fit, although a little overweight. He has an Aryan look, with short blond hair, including a beard, and blue eyes. He usually wears a shirt or t-shirt and either jeans or cargo trousers, along with a black jacket. He wears glasses, with lenses that tint in sunlight.
Biography: Walter was born and raised in England, and had what could be considered an average life. He started duelling as a hobby, playing with friends and family, although he found he was better than most of them. Even so, duelling was not a major part of his life, and instead he focussed on studying. He eventually made his way to university, where he joined a club and began to face tougher opponents. In this last year, he has been on an exchange to an American college, which has recently ended. With several months before the next year starts, he decided to take a holiday and earn some extra money before heading home.
Decks: Scrap (Ground), Quickdraw/Debris (Turbo),
Duel Disk Style: A rather old, and slightly worn, design, with a circular central section and parallel slots for the cards. The two closest to the hand slide into the other half, to reduce the size, and all five sections slide outwards to clear room to access the graveyard. There are further slots for the extra deck and for cards removed from play. This is not his own duel disk, but one he bought second-hand on arrival in the US, and will leave behind when he goes home.
Duel Runner Style: Walter has hired a bike for his stay in the US. Although he could ride before, he didn't have his own bike, although he plans to get one upon his return. A rather generic design, similar to the ones used by security. It is in green, and has a large storage container on the back, allowing Walter to use it for general transport. The card slots, along with the graveyard, are fixed, with a separate wrist strap holding the deck and hand. This is separate to his grown duel disk, meaning he has to change between them.[/spoiler]
[Spoiler=Clair]
Name: Mion Muzaki
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Appearance: Mion is short and slender, with light-green hair that cascades down her back. She keeps the hair straight, but occasionally puts it up in a ponytail. She has pale skin, and dark green eyes that always seem to shine. She wears a simple schoolgirl outfit, which includes a white, sleeveless top and a solid black skirt. She also wears a light-green tie because she thinks it makes her look official.
Biography: Mion Muzaki grew up in a rich mansion in Tokyo, but it was when her parents decided to move to Miami that the trouble started. Mion could not fit in with the different culture of America and quickly became a social outcast. It was around this time that Mion started to take an interest in Dueling, and since her repressive mother didn't allow her any spending money, Mion took up an early job and set out to buy all kinds of cards, eventually constructing four shoddily built decks. Still, it is apparent that Mion is still suffering in America, under her parent's care. She is regularly scolded, taunted, and beaten by her mother because she is apparently "imperfect", and her father is always away at work. Despite her hardships, Mion always keeps an annoyingly bright attitude about her, starved for affection that her parents keep from her. All she wants in a friend, and she hopes to meet some new people this summer. Mion is absurdly positive at all times, but years of abuse have left her submissive to anybody. She is shy, and quite easily embarrassed.
Decks: Perfect Herald - Six Samurai - Uria - Counter Fairy
Duel Disk Style: Mion owns a standard issue Duel Disk. It is cheap, pink, and plastic. She's not proud of her tacky Disk, but she attempts to wear it with pride. Looking proud about your chintzy Disk seems hard sometimes, especially when a girly voice erupts from the device, shouting life point calculations and encouragement in a strange, robotic voice.
Duel Runner Style: Mion does not yet own a Duel Runner, because she doesn't have enough money to acquire a license, and she thinks she'll embarrass herself if she applies. Therefore, Mion can only attend to grounded Duels. She looks at other Runners with jealousy, however. Mion hopes to obtain a Runner of her very own someday, but for now, it appears as if she will have to wait. She dreams of owning a green Runner.[/spoiler]
[Spoiler=Archwing]
Name: Logan Kruze
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Appearance: Logan is 6 feet tall with short black hair and green eyes. He isnt very muscular, being that hes too lazy to work out. His hair is normally just a mess and the way he dresses in public is nothing special. A plain white t-shirt and some jeans. He dosnt like the sun in his eyes so he weres sunglasses during the day. At night he takes a less normal appearance, being very much a night owl he well trade in his plain white t-shirt for a fuzzy bath robe and enjoy a nice quite twilight covered beach.
Biography:Logan was born and raised in America, Hes quite, calm, and lazy. He prefers to watch people duel rather than duel himself, And he's more intrested in women than in Yu-gi-oh. He dosnt think much of his appearance and prefers night over day so he's rarely seen on the beach in the morning perfering to go at night when noone else is there. Arron Trys to act cool but on the inside hes just a little old nerd so most of his decks are weak due to the fact that he cares more about how the cards look than if their useful. His best deck (Final Countdown) is one he only brings out if you pissed him off or insulted a girl he likes.
Decks: Charmers - Volcanic - Harpie - Final Countdown
Duel Disk Style:Run of the mill store bought brand. Nothing special bout it.
Duel Runner Style:None, He dosnt care about turbo dueling.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=~Jay~]
*Name: Elizabeth Dreads
*Age: 19
*Gender: Female
*Appearance: Short light red hair that only almost reaches her shoulder with gold yellow eyes. She wears a dull brown jacket and a red skirt. She's quite short standing at about 5'4 but this doesn't get to her too often. She won't wear any bright colors, usually the colors will be dark purple, black, or brown. She wears lipstick that matches her hair and speaking of her lips they're quite small this one thing she actually dislikes about herself. Sometimes she can be seen wearing her purple tank top instead, if it gets really hot out.
~Biography: Born in the city of Jacksonville North Carolina. But she wasn't raised there after her parents died in a car accident when she was 3 she was left as a orphan, until finally adopted at the age of six. Ever since then she has a hard time showing her true feelings, she may seem happy and okay, but deep down she's hurting. She just doesn't want to but the burden of her own problems on anyone else. She also is quite quiet, only to speak when spoken to, but she has a habit of saying things out loud and fixing Duel Runners. Most people just call her Liz.
*Decks: Zombie Synchros
*Duel Disk Style: Normal duel disk, but it's in a deep purple color. When she activates her duel disk it makes a eerie sound that can spook a person unaware. This duel disk was the only one she had ever. So she treats it with care it's one of her prize possessions.
~Duel Runner Style: Duel Runner is like Crow's, but black and purple and a bit skinnier. The wings on the duel runner resemble a vampire bat. Much like her duel disk she gave it a eerie sound every time it activates. She constantly shines her Runner, so it's most likely to shine against the sun. Brightening it's colors, which Elizabeth dislikes sometimes.[/spoiler]
[Spoiler=Guuu1234]
*Name: Desmond Smith
*Age: 18
*Appearance: Has short black hair with eyes so brown that they appear to be black. Some has commented that they kind of look golden when seen in the right light. Is pretty tall, around 5’10 or 5’11. Weighs 190 pounds and is a little bit on the chubby side. He isn’t very muscular but is big in the shoulders, which makes him look bigger and stronger than he really is. Likes to wear blue jeans pants and shorts, and stylish shirts. Most of his shirts have designs of dragons, skulls, or knights on them. He has to wear glasses to see things clearly and far away, but his vision is perfect if things are put really close to his face.
~Biography: Blane was born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky. Though it’s a very country state, he lived in the city. He was from the west end, but knew the worst parts to stay out off. He made good grades in school, not straight A’s but pretty close to it, which helped him get into a good high school and graduate at the top 5 percentile of his class. He does nothing but work all day an night, and practice various forms of dance by himself when he gets the chance (which he’s pretty good at by the way). He has a lot of energy and could be very friendly if you know him personally, but can be cold and sometimes shy when meeting new people. His parents has urged him to take a break from all his work, which has led him to Miami, Florida.
*Decks: Gemini, Spirit, Spellcaster, Warriors, Gemini/Spirit Combo (in progress).
*Duel Disk Style: Duel disk isn’t much different than the upgraded version of the academy duel disk. Customized it to be black and silver in color. The monster card zones come out as spikes.
~Duel Runner Style: Doesn’t care much for turbo dueling, but knows how to ride a runner.[/spoiler]
[Spoiler=Saint Dane]
*Name: Ikana Elendril
*Age: 17
*Gender: Male
*Appearance: Ikana wears a long robe that is purple in color. He came from a rather hot place to Miami, so he is used to hot weather, and his material of the robe is thin to were he can easily run in it if needed. He wears sandals most of the time, but they were modified to stay on his feet even while running. The purple robe has a dark blue trim to it, and the rather long sleeves change to dark blue halfway down them. He also has a coat that is also thin so that he can wear it and have pockets as needed.The coat is dark yellow, and is almost a greenish color. It has no hood.
~Biography: Ikana came from the land of, you guessed it, Egypt. He grew up NOT playing Duel Monsters, as he prefers to call it, and only recently started to play it. Needless to say, he’s still a novice, but does enjoy a good duel either way. He doesn’t mess with anything meta, and instead uses a Archetype he has grown to love using, Gravekeeper’s. He just recently arrived in Miami, due to it being a long flight.
*Decks: Guardians of the Grave. (AKA: Strange Gravekeeper build that won't work in any normal world.) Impeaching Reality
*Duel Disk Style: His Duel Disk is of a special craft. Instead of the normal grey paint it normally has, his painted yellow and purple. The yellow is to simbolize the dunes of Egypt, while the purple is the old color of royalty. The edges of the Disk have been sharpened enough to where they could hurt, but only if it was ran straight into.

*Name: Sprite
*Age: 12
*Gender: Male
*Appearance: He's your typical-looking boy who's obviously British. He has blonde hair which is turning brown, and blue glasses. He wears a green and white striped top and tracksuit bottoms. On formal occasions he wears a tuxedo with his deck and duel disk stored away ready for action. This may seem uncomfortable but Sprite rigged his tuxedo and duel disk so it looks (and feels) like nothing's there.
*Decks: He only runs one deck which is unnamed. He always uses Curse of Dragon and Mystical Space Typhoon. The rest of his deck is Elemental-Hero/Junk Warrior based.
*Duel Disk Style: The duel disk is rigged with his tuxedo (as seen above) and later on in school-life, rigged with his tops. The duel disk is basically one from Duel Academy, but with extra slots for Fusion and Synchro Monsters, never mind for Speed Counters, when he lends the Duel Disk to his friends. The duel disk is just like the Yami Yugi story's duel disk, which positions into the Duel Academy Duel Disk. [/spoiler]

Name: Noah Reliwant

Age: 14

Gender: Male

Appearance: Noah stands at about four feet eleven inches. His hair is a light brown and goes down to his neck, the same color as his eyes. He often dons a circular hat made of all of his copies of the card Moja. His attire includes a brown t-shirt with a large yellow "x" in the center. He also wears a pair of black jeans with brown shoes and a yellow vest. He is light skinned and has a mild sunburn on his back, caused by a recent vacation to Mollasia.

Biography: Noah grew up in Minnesota, where he lived a mostly average school life, living with his parents and older brother. He came across Duel Monsters when a classmate had left the card "Moja" on his desk. Noah grew to enjoy the card and began playing Yu-Gi-Oh regularly, making a simple Beast Deck centering on Moja. Eventually he began collecting them and entering in local tournaments. Overall Noah is a very cheerful person, fun-loving and not caring about the meta, though he does have a rather large temper that occasionally comes out when someone he knows is harmed. His favorite card is Moja and he includes it in every deck he runs, which is usually not difficult considering most of his decks are Beast heavy.

Decks: Macro Beasts, Moja Beatdown, Beast Mill, and Beast Synchro.

Duel Disk Style: Noah's duel disk is a standard issue one, the only difference between it and the average one is that he has spray painted it brown and painted yellow on the monster card zones. Noah is proud of this disk and treats it as his own creation and wears it with pride.

Duel Runner Style: Being fourteen, Noah is unable to obtain a Duel Runner, however he wishes to get one when he is older and has already prepared his own Riding Uniform for this occasion.[/spoiler]

Biography: John was born in Fayetteville, NC, as the son of a soldier stationed at Ft. Bragg. He grew up normally, getting straight A's his whole life as a child. In 3rd grade, a new card game was introduced, and he fell in love with it. The first card he ever owned was Red Eyes Black Dragon. He loved the card, and ran it in every deck he made, until archetypes came out. When his little sister was a few years old, he taught her how to play the game, and she learned quickly. Shaping up against each other as she got older, he went on to build many different decks, and enter into multiple contests with them, usually winning. He had amassed 15 different decks as he turned 17, and he was met with news on that day as well. He was going to spend a summer in Miami, Florida, so he could experience life away from home. He protested, and was eventually able to convince his parents to at least take his duel runner, and that is where John's story begins.

Only the very tip at the front, the boosters, and the feathers remain white. The spot for his duel disk is located directly below the screen, to accommodate with John's personal tastes. The only other touch he added in was a radio headset for his helmet, that connects to the duel runner, to listen to the radio.[/spoiler]

~Biography: Cal is a old army vet, serving in many wars before retiring and winning many medals, they took a toll on his sanity, making him go senile early and a bit jumpy. Trying to find a hobby to calm down, he took the slightly more dangerous act of playing yu-gi-oh, which merely heightened his madness. He became virtually unbeatable for a time though he would also lose a bit from extremly careless mistakes. One time he even one against a chap using a counter fairy deck when he was using his blackwings, fella named Jona... Oh heck, it's been awhile, how can I remenber. As Cal's fame grew and his sanity dwindled Cal was hired to find some undercover evil drug cartel hidden in the card tornament (or so he thinks, actually he just heard an offer to join the tornament and imagined the rest).

*Decks: Blackwings, Fabled/Darkworld, Mokey Mokey, Senile deck *it's a deck filled with terrible dumb cards that is completely useless, he accidentally uses this deck allot*
*Duel Disk Style: Cal's is special as it is actually his walking stick. Well his walking stick is half of it, it is usen as a stand for the real duel disk, which is a small board that unfolds, this let's him play traditional table top yugioh.
~Duel Runner Style: It's a big green tank. The generic tanks you always image, with the cannon. The tank uses the cannon to fire the card holograms. It's apperantly was a loan from the army for Cal's extradinary service while in it.[/spoiler]

[b]Name:[/b][color="#006400"] Lloyd Patton[/color]
[b]Age:[/b] 18
[b]Gender:[/b] Male
[color="#0000FF"][b]Appearance:[/b] Lloyd stands at about six feet even but he's adamant about being six foot one, claiming it to be a far superior height for a man to stand at. He has a thin and almost scrawny build. At the least there's not much of fat or muscle to be seen. His legs give him a bit more height than his upper body. His skin is very white, having no pigment whatsoever. For that matter he's an albino compete with white hair and irises that appear to be pink. His face seems a bit more narrow than round and has a slightly longer nose and slightly more narrow eyes than a normal European person. His hair is relatively short but quite thick and can look quite messy in a hurry if there's enough of a breeze. His clothing looks rather refined, or at the least expensive. He'll generally wear short-sleeved single color t-shirts with short sleeved button-up shirts of various styles. As well he often wears slacks of various colors depending on what else he might be wearing. He also wears thinly framed glasses as well as a very expensive looking wrist band that also functions as watch by flipping up a small covering.[/color]
[spoiler=[b]Biography:[/b]]
Lloyd's great something or other was supposedly some big shot general in some big war around 1940 to 1950. The guy never really concerned Lloyd. All he knows is somehow the man's first name became his family's last name, other than that he never wanted to learn anything about him. Lloyd has always had a great interesting in older things, well older things except war. History is fine but he never cares to study war or military history. Antiques are a big hobby of his and he often goes shopping for them. Unfortunately, antiques don't come cheap. Fortunately, Lloyd's family is loaded and he had easy access to a lot of money which is the reason he can always be mailing antiques back home from wherever he goes and buy the latest styles at the same time.

Lloyd got caught up in duel monsters when he heard it supposedly had connections to an ancient type of battle that old time Egyptians took part in. For that reason alone he treats every card like a treasure worthy of the highest praise, care, and perfection. Lloyd is very obsessive about keeping his cards in great condition, mostly because he uses card from the much older sets of duel monsters that you can't really buy anymore. Lloyd has also always been rather intelligent, but he has a rather annoying way of showing it. He prefers to use many big words when simpler words could work so much easier just to annoy people he dislikes. He'll speak much more plainly around people he trusts/likes/is friends with. Lloyd is one to pull a lot of what seem to be personality one eighties. Usually he's friendly though hard to understand. If you mention something about say his height or his albino appearance he usually flips and yells at whoever said anything about him. When he's serious attempted jokes, even horribly poor ones, will make him burst out laughing. He works himself up on things he plans to do as well and acts like the world is shattering around him should what he thought was to happen does not.

Lloyd quickly found a dueling idol as he got into the game himself, an older man of course. His name was Cal Reinfield, who coincidentally was also a general in some big war; not that mattered to Lloyd. Lloyd loved the fact that an older man was not only playing duel monsters but doing rather well in it when he defeated a rather well known counter fairy deck. Though shortly after he seemed to disappear from the dueling word for awhile. This drove Lloyd to want to become an amazing duelist and due to his efforts he was invited to a tournament in Miami Florida. Though due to many complications he wasn't able to arrive on time. His family quickly chartered a private jet to get him there as fast as he could. He has two real goals in the tournament: Find Cal or at least a lead on him, and beat as many duelists as he can.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=[b]Decks:[/b]]
Lloyd was never able to gather whole archetypes and making well known decks, not that he ever really wanted to though. Instead, using the older cards he has he threw together cards he liked into general themes. He has a total of three.

1.) Fire-Light Throw Together.
2.) Random Power Deck.
3.) Weakling Stall.
[/spoiler]
[b]Duel Disk Style:[/b] Due to his affinity for older things, Lloyd was sure to get a remake of the original duel disk design as he felt nothing other than the original should be used by a true duelist, or at the least his hero would have never used anything past the first model if even that. Of course his model looks much newer and much nicer. It's also a fair bit less bulky and the parts that form the playing field come all the way inside so as to take up less space when it's not being used.
[b]Duel Runner Style:[/b] While Lloyd owns a duel runner he dislikes it. If nothing other than he detests the Speed World spell card. His duel runner is not nearly as obvious as others and in fact usually resembles a Harley, dark red in color. Though when he brings his duel disk into it some more protective measures come up around the side and of course the bike can then be set to auto-pilot. Lloyd will far more often than not use the duel runner as a means of transportation as opposed to a means of dueling[/spoiler]

Lauren's eyes fluttered open as the blaring of her alarm clock reached her ears. Yawning loudly, Lauren drew her left leg up and lifted it into the air, stretching it with a sigh. She stretched her arms up over her head before swinging her legs off the side of the bed and sliding off the bed onto her feet. She reached down, grabbed the bottom of her pink shirt and pulled it down in an attempt to adjust the shirt. Then she repeated this with her shorts.

With another sigh Lauren turned to the mirror across from her to her right and smirked at her reflection before turning away and walking toward the glass staircase at the edge of her room. She descended the staircase and reached the bottom, walking past a side table on which one of her decks sat, beside her pink and green duel disk. As she past, she gently brushed the top of her deck with her fingers, before moving toward the kitchen.

Keegan had finally woke up from his long sleep in his beach house, in Miami. As he removed himself from his bed, he picked up some cereal and placed himself on the chair, where he usually eats his meals. After his breakfast, he decided to make his way to his room downstairs, where he kept valuables. He easily found his pale red duel disk, and not far from it, his stack of decks.

“Damn, I have no idea what deck to take today,” Keegan said, ultimately deciding on the one on the left. “That should do,” he said again, to himself has he proceeded to the door, which led him outside.

[Spoon]

When Aaron saw the sun shining in his beach house, he grabbed his Deck and drew the card on top. "Fortune Lady Dark". [i]This can only be a bad day. Why did I went here again?[/i] he thought and placed the card back on the deck. [i]Another day full of joy and hope... I should stay in bed. But maybe some dueling can get me up again.[/i]

With tardy movements he somehow got in the kitchen of his beach house and tried to make something to eat. "A simple toast and some milk will do, and then I'll go out and see if someone's already there", he said to himself, way more energetic than he actually felt and put a toast in the toaster while grabbing for the marmelade in the fridge.

[.Leo]

As Keegan walked outside of his house, he didn’t see anybody, or anything living for that matter, except for a few birds passing in the sky. As he walked out with his duel disk attached to his arm, he decided to walk around the beach, looking for somewhere to sit for a while. A few houses done, he saw a bench, which obviously had nobody sitting on it. He decided to sit there, waiting for something to happen, like he usually would do.

[♥Łövëły-Ċħän♥]

As Lauren reached the refridgerator she opened it and pulled out a sub that her mother had made her yesterday before Lauren left. She unwrapped it and took a bite from it. She could taste the mayonnaise and lettuce and cajun chicken and groaned, relishing in the taste. She closed the fridge and turned around and walked out of the kitchen back to her deck and duel disk. She picked up her duel disk and set her sub down on the table to strap on the disk. When she finished, she grabbed her deck and slid it into the deck slot before picking her sub up once more and walking to the back door and opened it. Then she stepped out and turned around and locked it before closing it.

Stretching, her sighed "Time to get crackin! Nothin like some early morning dueling!" before setting off down the beach.

[Time Psyduck]

Walter yawned and pushed himself out of bed. It was still early, and yet the sunlight was strong and bright. [i]This doesn't happen often back home,[/i] he thought to himself as he washed and found some new clothes, [i]and it'd be colder than this. Guess I'd better enjoy it.[/i] He pulled on a lightweight shirt and shorts, which whilst not his favourite clothing was far more comfortable in the heat than his preferred choice of outfit. Once dressed, he headed to the kitchen, prepared some cereal and stood eating it, looking out over the ocean. The beach was rather quiet but there were a few people already there. Walter glanced at the clock, and decided it was time to leave. He dropped the empty bowl into the sink and, grabbing his duel disk and decks, headed out to his runner.

[.Leo]

Keegan looked around the beach, hoping someone would be out by now. [i]Where is everybody [/i] he though as he looked through his deck. He took out the card Naturia Bamboo Shoot. [i]I think this card is going to save me from whatever happens today, whether it be a duel or a trade I don’t care [/i] he said to himself as he fell asleep, too tired to keep his eyes open, to watch his deck fall over the warm sand of the beach. He started to dream, about his days back in his old town. They seemed to be a blur, but it was interupted as he fell off this bench. [i]Ugh, that wasn't pleasant[/i] he said to himself.

[Limited Edition KING]

Jayson felt like he was dreaming when he woke up and saw his room it looked slightly different but it did not phase him to much so he ignored it. [color=Blue]"Ah good morning world! Today is a great day to be Jayson Prince!"[/color] Jayson jumped out to the side of his bed and opened up a closet to his right. In it had a bunch of the same clothes [color=Blue]"Eh, why do I wear the same clothes everyday? I must go shopping one of these days while I'm in Miami."[/color] Jayson quickly got dressed and looked in the mirror his hair was in a mess so he picked up his hair gel and applied it to his liking. [color=Blue]"There good as normal!"[/color] Jayson smiled and raced to his kitchen and opened up his fridge nothing was there, he looked in all the cupboards around the kitchen yet no food was there. [color=Blue]"WHAT? NO PANCAKE MIX, NO WAFFLE MIX, NOT EVEN ANY CEREAL?"[/color] Jayson suddenly had a frown on his face [color=Blue]"This morning is not so awesome as I thought it would be."[/color] Jayson turned around and looked at the table there was a note on it which wrote.

[i]"Dear Jayson,
Good morning sweety! Hope you like the beach house sorry but you'll have to buy your own food here I'll give you 1000 dollars to get you through to the summer be sure to spend it wisely and not to waste it on trading cards! The moneys in the evelope on the table oh and your duel runner should be arriving sometime tomorrow so if you duel anyone it will have to be using your duel disk. Anyway hope you have a good time and make some new friends!"

Love mother. xxoo ^,^[/i]

Jayson looked at the envelope and pulled out the 1000 dollars and put it in his wallet. [color=Blue]"Awesome I'm going to the store and buy some pancake mix right now!"[/color] Jayson rushed outside his beach house and saw the beautiful Miami beach he stared in amazement for about 2 minutes until his stomach growled from hunger.

[Spoon]

Aaron got dressed and put on his Duel Disk. "Alright, let's start things of with a nice and heart warming duel!", he said, but immediately thought that it sounded an aweful lot not like him. He chose the Fortune Lady Deck and left the house. [i]Elvis has left the building.[/i] he said to himself and smiled. He loves useless jokes nobody really gets.

Some people were already out. The one that stood out was one guy who slept on a bench, with his arm hanging off at one side. [i]Isn't that uncomfortable?[/i] Then he saw the cards on the ground. Just as he wanted to go there, the guy fell off. [i]Well, that can at least make for a conversation...[/i].

Aaron, trying to be as polite as possible, but without really looking at him, he said to the boy: "Erm... you look like a duelist..." [i]Damn, that was wrong! He just fell, maybe he hurt himself! You're stupid, just go and leave that guy alone![/i] He can shout at himself if necessary, but in this case, it didn't help. He just stood there, staring, and didn't know what to do...

As Lauren walked down the beach glancing around, kicking the sand as she moved. After a few moments of walking Lauren noticed someone on the beach. From a distance Lauren could tell they were asleep. She glanced around before jogging towards him, her stepped muffled by the soft grainy sand. She passed dazzling sea shells as she jogged, but her attetion was on the sleeping man. Excitement shot through her. "First duel of the day!" she called as she ran faster.

[.Leo]

Keegan decided to get up to meet the person above him. “Yeah, sorry for my failure, I am really tired today. I didn’t get much sleep last night,” Keegan said to the person as he began to pick up his deck that had fallen on the sand. He cleaned off all the sand and placed the deck in the duel disk. “So, who are you?” Keegan asked curiously as he stood up, dusting off all the sand from his clothes and in his hair. [i]This better be a good day[/i] Keegan randomly thought in his head, like he usually does at the start of a bad morning.

[Limited Edition KING]

10 minutes later Jayson arrived at a store not to far from the beach first thing he wanted was to eat something. He dashed randomly through the store looking for pancake mix among other things eventually he found some and picked two bags of it. Then he decided to buy some drinks as he would get thirsty, he rushed down the isles and grabbed some soft drink, orange juice and some milk. Jayson then realised what would he need milk for besides drinking it? cereal! so he rushed down the isles and picked some cereal and some bread.

30 minutes later he had a shopping trolley of food and went to the cashier [color="#48D1CC"]"and the total comes to 244 dollars please!"[/color] [color=Blue]"Whoa 244 dollars are you sure about that?"[/color] the cashier showed Jayson the amount of money on the computer screen to prove thats the amount needed. [color=Blue]"So I see here's 250 I should get 6 dollars change."[/color] Jayson paid the cashier and recieved the exact amount of change he calculated. Jayson had forgetten that he had to carry all this to the beach house and tried lifting all the bags up but kept dropping them. [color="#48D1CC"]"would you like to use one of our trolleys to push to where you need to go?"[/color] the cashier asked Jayson. [color=Blue]"Yes I'll return it I promise!"[/color] Jayson put all his bags into the trolley and pushed it out of the store.

Logan flopped out of bed, Closed the blinds, "Damn Noisy People, Who wakes up and yells what their gonna do for the day? Might as well get up and go eat. I feel like pancakes, I wonder if theres a store around here?." Logan put on a plain White T-Shirt and a pair of jeans then looked down at his decks. "Hmmmm, I guess volcanic should be fine." Logan picked up his Volcanic deck and stuffed it in his pocket. He flipped on some sunglasses and walked out the door. He looked up and down the beach and saw two people talking to each other at the far end. "Dueling this early in the morning, These people are crazy..".

[♥Łövëły-Ċħän♥]

Lauren smiled, "It's fine, I'm Lauren Winters, just came by to see if you were awake." She stepped back a few steps, letting her toes sink into the sand. She lifted her duel disk slightly, letting the sun's rays reflect off the clean shiny disk. "I was also wondering if maybe you'd like to have a duel?" She tilted her head to the left slightly and smiled nervously, "But who are you?" An itch on her upper arm caused her to lift her hand up to scratch it. The sun beat down on the back of her neck and warmed her skin making he smile.

OoC: Talking to Leo/Keegan

Aaron was still a little shocked, but tried to overcome it by shaking his head back and forth. That always worked. Then he said, stuttering: "My name's A-aron. Ehm... nice to meat you." [i]Now ask him if you can help him already![/i] But he already got up. "Ehm...", he didn't know what to say anymore, so he just let this last tune go off smoothly by turning it down. Then, form somewhere in his head, he got an incredible idea. At least he thought it was incredible, when, in fact, it was the obvious choice. "I asked you about being a duelist... so... how about it? A duel I mean? You know you have cards, and a Disk, so I thought... eh...", and his voice died away once again.

Edit (OOC): Now I'm confused... who did you talk to again?
Edit 2 (OOC): No, I wanted to ask Leo who he was talking to

Walter had almost reached his runner when he had second thoughts. He didn't need anything from a store or anything, and he may as well enjoy the beach now whilst it was cooler and quieter, and then head into the town when the late risers hit the beach. He turned around and headed back for the seafront, before taking a slow walk up the beach. It was very clean, and well kept, although it somehow seemed a little stale. He moved a little down the beach, away from the beach houses that may have had sleeping people in, to avoid waking them, however he saw a trio of people with duel disks back up near a house. He changed course again, heading back up towards the trio. He may be close to leaving the US, but he didn't see why he couldn't still meet new people.

Keegan finished dusting all the sand off his clothing and in his hair and responded to Lauren. “A duel you want? Sure, you better get ready for a damn good duel because I sure am,” Keegan said as he activated his duel disk. It started flashing green as his life points appeared with a big red 8000. His deck was auto shuffled and he drew five cards to start off this duel. “Alright Lauren, you ready for our duel? I will give you the first turn of the duel,” Keegan said smiling at the hand he drew. [i]Perfect, this is going to be an amazing duel. [/i]

OoC: I guess I talked to CC..

[Spoon]

Aaron turned away. [i]He didn't even see me. Well, let them have their fun. I'm going to get a book and relax a bit. The day is young, after all... or whatever they say to this.[/i]

He got back to his cabin and got the book. On the title it said: "Troposphere", by Scarlett Thomas. [i]Might as well blow my head off with this...[/i]. He thought about that stupid pun and laughed, then he went back outside to search for a nice place. The guy ([i]Kerrigan? Keeran? Something like that[/i]) and that girl just started a duel, but he didn't want to watch. He found a shadowy place under a large palm tree and laid back, with the book in his hands, and started to read. Something about mathematics and meta-physics...

Jayson eventually returned to his beach house and unpacked all his items. He made some toast and buttured it he ate it quickly and made another piece, then he poured a glass of Orange juice and guzzled it down in a matter of seconds. [color=Blue] *Hic* "Damn it I drank and ate to fast now I've *hic* got hiccups, well at least I'm *hic* not hungry anymore."[/color] Jayson walked back into his room and thought about what to do next he grabbed his deck and duel disk and walked outside his beach house and noticed that a duel was about to take place, he grabbed a chair and umbrella and placed it near where the duelists where but left enough space not to be noticed by them. [color=Blue]Alright time to check out some of the competition around here."[/color] Jayson looked on waiting for the duel to begin.

OoC: Oh crap Leo lol were you talking to Spoon? Sorry!

Lauren smirked and lifted her duel disk and activated it. An 8000 flashed on a strip of pink. "I should be telling your the same, but thanks" she drew 5 cards and placed them in the hand of the arm hosting her duel disk. "I draw!" she said, pulling a card from the top of her deck. She glanced at it for a moment, then placed it into her hand and plucked another card from it.

"I Summon CC's Baton Jester in Attack Mode!" called Lauren, throwing down the card vertically on the middle monster card zone. A tall winged fairy seemed to drop down from the sky. She was wearing a top hat with small wings on each side and held a baton in her left hand.

"Now when CC'S Baton Jester is Summoned to the field, I send the top card of my deck to the graveyard and draw a card," she acted accordingly, pulling a card from the top of her deck and adding it to the Graveyard and drawing a card. Glancing at the card she smirked.

"Now I Special Summon CC's Priestess in Defense mode!" Lauren called, throwing the card down horizontally. A smaller fairy burst up from the ground holding a red scythe, "She can be Special Summoned when she is drawn by the effect of a CC monster! Thats not all, I can return CC's Baton Jester to my hand to send the top card of my deck to the Grave," the Jester suddenly leaped into the air and vanished as Lauren removed it from the card zone on her disk before she discarded the top card of her deck to the graveyard.

"And thanks to Priestess's ability I gain 100 Life Points each time a card is sent from my deck to the grave," a ring of light engulfed Lauren and her Life Point bar increased to 8100.

"I end with 1 face-down" she said inserting a card face-down into her middle Spell/Trap card zone.

Logan began walking down the street towards the store, Hands in his pockets back to the sun. "I guess being up early isnt horrible as long as its quite..." He walked briskly for about 7 minutes before giving up and stopped at a small beach shack that was serving food. He ordered a Large Strawberry Smoothie and started walking back to the beach. "Mabey ill find somewere quite to relax...." As Logan got back he saw the people from earlier were starting a duel. He walked over and sat down a distance from the match, He scanned the beach for other people and distanced himself from them so that he wouldnt get in a fight with any of these battle maniacs.

“Ah, nice move indeed Lauren, but you helped me. The effect of my card Naturia Cosmobeet lets me special summon him from my hand. I will draw!” Keegan said as he picked up his sixth card from his deck. “I will activate Cold Wave! This makes it that we cannot set or activate spell or traps until my next turn! Now, I will summon my XX-Saber Darksoul from my hand in attack mode!” Keegan said as he placed his card into a random card section on his duel disc. “I will now synchro summon a new monster, that monster being Naturia Beast!” Keegan said as he sent his two monsters to his graveyard, and placed Naturia Beast on the disc. “Naturia Beast, attack CC’s Priestess! Now, I will end with and end phase search from Darksoul, adding Airbellum to my hand!”

OoC: You mean Priestess

"Alright," said Lauren, removing Prietess's card from it's monster zone and sliding it into the graveyard. "I draw!" she called, drawing a card. Glancing at it she frowned before adding it to her hand. "Damn Cold Wave," she muttered glancing at her hand. "I guess this is the best I can do for now, I Summon CC's White Lighter in attack mode!"

As she placed the card into the middle Monster Card Zone, a beautiful and tall winged fairy swooped down from the sky and landed before Lauren, white flames dancing around her. Lauren bit her lip, "I end."

[i][size="2"]This card cannot be used as a Synchro Material Monster. When this card is returned from the field to your hand or sent directly from the Deck to your Graveyard, you can Special Summon this card. If you control "CC's Imperial Throne", this card cannot be destroyed by battle. If an opponent's monster that battles this card is not destroyed, you can return 1 card your opponent controls and 1 card you control to their respective owner's hands. You can only control 1 "CC's White Lighter".[/i][/size][/spoiler]

Walter moved around the two duellists, putting them between him and the sea, and thus lower due to the slope of the beach. Despite watching the duel, he noticed that two other people had come in to watch as well, although the other guy he'd seen seemed to be uninterested in the duel and instead was reading a book. Walter walked over towards a boy with blue hair who had gotten a deckchair and drink, and leaned against a nearby tree to watch the duel.
[i]Interesting,[/i] he pondered, [i]opening with Cold Wave. It lets him build momentum without interruption, and it seems it stopped her doing something, but now he won't have it later on, where it might be more pivotal.[/i]

"Mion, get up, dammit!"

Mion Muzaki nearly fell onto the floor as her mother's sharp words knifed through her like an axe. [i]Great[/i], she thought. [i]Mother is in a lovely mood today, just like always....[/i]

Rolling out of her modest bed, she squinted as the Miami sunbeams glanced off her face. Taking a cursory glance at her alarm clock, she was surprised at the numbers showing on the green display.

It was past noon.

"Darn it, darn it, darn it..." Mion continued this panicked mantra as she slipped on her typical clothes and combed her hair back into what she hoped was a respectable style. She stumbled out of her room, her white top still halfway over her head.

Mion staggered downstairs, finally managing to slip her shirt on. She was met with a growl and had no time to react as a rolled-up newspaper rapped her on the forehead.

"Baka!" her mother screamed. Mion winced as the newspaper met the back of her head again. "What took you so long? You have to deliver this bento to Mr. Bushida right away! You're sleeping on the job!"

"S-sorry," squeaked Mion, quickly ducking out the way, expecting another swipe. However, her mother was already pushing her out the door, the bento in her hands.

"Sloth girl... sleeping in until noon..." her mother muttered, roughly shoving the food into Mion's arms.

"Be back by seven, no later," she hissed, slamming the door on her bewildered child.

Mion let out a huge sigh, picking up her faded green bike. She slipped the bento into a small backpack, which also contained her Duel Disk and cards. If her mother ever found these... Mion shuddered at the thought.

Putting her hair in a special basket behind her bike, Mion pedaled off towards the beach, on her way to another delivery.
