Co-Hosted by: .:Blu:.
[spoiler=Plot]Approximately a century has passed since the events that took place during Yu-Gi-Oh 5D’s. The world, or so it seems, is once again in a period of calm. During all of the dark events that took place in the past seems to have left quite a wound on the world, but as history often repeats itself, the world and humanity seems to be able to move on and look pass those events. Nowadays, the center of dueling has shifted from Neo Domino City to an even larger city named Grand Spectra Capital, a city that borders Neo Domino City.

Neo Domino City continues to be a place where duelists come to perfect their skills, but Grand Spectra Capital is where duelists come to prove their worth. Technology over the pass century has improved much. Everywhere you look is now computerized and technology is king. Hovercrafts are now a big part of the dueling scene with competitions held rather frequently. Kaiba Corp still reigns strong as the leading innovator in dueling technology and overall in everything related to entertainment.

Kaiba Corp’s current President and CEO, Seto Kaiba IV, sought to create a new revolution in dueling, but has yet to. He decided to open a chain of new Duel Academies around the world to improve the skills of young students in hopes of one day that they will be the leaders of a new dueling revolution. Three years has now passed since the opening of the Duel Academy located on a small island near Grand Spectra Capital. You are one of the many students of this prestigious academy, and your individual and intertwined tales will now begin.

However, be weary of history, as it has repeated itself once again to bring forth a new order hidden within darkness bent on ruling the world with an iron fist. The Shadow Order is coming, are you ready….?[/spoiler]

Elliot basically looks like the picture above with Shamrock green-colored eyes. Elliot is about 5'08" in height and weighs 119 lbs. Unlike the picture above, Elliot's jacket doesn't have that army patter if you can see it plus Elliot sometimes can be seen wearing a light blue scarf with a snow pattern on the scarf, however, this is not often. Elliot is also seen with a friendly smile on his face regularly. Elliot can also be seen wearing the Slifer Red outfit.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Personality:]Elliot is a happy, kind, and caring person in a nutshell. Elliot has a positive attitude and outlook on things, even when situations get grim, Elliot will still keep hope and think positively. Though, there are times where he succumbs to despair, but these times are rare considering his nature. Though he is the positive kind, Elliot is not the hyper and energetic kind of person, and sometimes may dislike a person when they're too energetic. Elliot is kind and caring, especially to his friends and family. But overall, Elliot is usally kind and caring to everyday people. Elliot is sometimes shy and reserved, especially to girls. Even a simple hold of the arm by a girl is enough to make him blush wildly. Though usually not being the serious type or the type to anger, Elliot will display these kind of emotions when there are situations involving the wellbeing of others.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Hotaru]RP Name: [color="#FF0000"]Dan Kuzakara[/color]

Age: 19

Gender: Male

Bio: Born in the high society life and was one of the lucky ones. His life was perfect in every sense of the word...Save for one little blemish. Or better yet two. His parents. They were cruel and heartless people, never passing a single glance to those "below" them and not once did they give money to those less fortunate. To Dan the words "Snob" and "bastards" were invented solely because of his parents. He hated his parents and whenever they went out together made an attempt to say as far away from them as possible. When he was ten he became interested in magic, and he was positive that h wanted to become a magician when he grew up. Unfortunately his parents disagreed, believing that cheep tricks and illusions were hobbies of the poor. After that Dan secluded himself even more, doing whatever it took to learn magic. When dueling started to get popular, and a lot of the other wealthy kids started playing it, his parents brought him a set and luckily for him it was a spell caster deck. That was the first and last thing that he ever thanked his parents for.

Personality: Dan is a quiet, and reserved man. He chooses not to say much because he just doesn't like talking as he's more on an "Action" guy. Dan is never without his deck, and is always fiddling with his different magician tricks. He's quite fond of kids, often being found on the streets performing tricks for them, and enjoys making them smile. A very charasmatic guy and if you were to meet him when he's not on a mission he's quite the charming and kind guy. There aren't many things that get him annoyed, but his pet peeve is when others bully others for no reason as it reminds him of his parents.

except of a western descent, those are they types of clothes he likes to wear. He is of quite a muscular build and is slightly above average in height. [/spoiler]
Personality: He is optimistic and always sees the brighter side of things, however he is rule abiding and will often never reslt in breaking the rules, he believes in dueling your heat out and never denying your cards, when dueling he likes to be along, however his real strenghth is revealed when his secret hope of having friends with him arises. He often may be criticizing but solely to outline an underlying message.Due to his success at the academy he has developed a cocky attitude and will often treat the students of the other dorms as lesser duelists.

[spoiler=Bio]
His past isn't paved with gold and silver, he grew up with his father, his mother was an accomplished duelist and had left the family as she saw them as a weight on her shoulder, Yurai learnt about dueling and the proper mechanics through the guidance of his father and grandfather. His father was a geoligist and liked collecting unique rocks, in his collection of over 300 different types of stones/crystals he had 1 remaining the legendary "Quartz" crystal. After searching many years with his father it was only when Yurai at 8 had his leg caught on seaweed, 10 metres deep int he water, at this point his oxygen supply was empty, his father was oblivious to this and had already reached the surface before realizing what was happening. It was only then int he dark water that a bright blue crystallic light revealed itself a blue stream of light had dashed across the water and cut the sea weed releasing Yurai, Yurai was unconsiouse but woke up on the shore of the beach with his father and paramedics next to him, yurai was holding a duel monsters card in his hand, "Quartz Diamond".

it is believed that Quartz Diamond saved Yurai's life, His father also managed to excavate part of the "Quartz" rock from the water, he later told Yurai that the rock floated on the water and drifted into his hand. After a few more eyars of searching Yurai had completed his search for the "Quartz Aquatic Stone" Set. His father gave him the Quartz diamond that Yurai puts int he centre of his belt.

When he turned 16 Yurai was recruited into Duel Academy and quickly rose intot he Obelisk Blue ranks after defeating an Obelisk Blue in his opening match.

Ever since the incidence in the water and the Quartz cards, yurai has felt a strange bond with the cards, as if they are his peace of mind, somethiing brought to his attention during one of his hardest fought duels was that his right eye had on the pupil a light blue glowing "Q" on it. It was lkater researched and discovered to be an intense bond with his cards, its during his hardest duels when his soul is connected to his cards that the unique dueling trait in his eye comes out.[/spoiler]
Faction: D.A
Deck Type: Quartz (Alternate Summon Set)
Alternate Summon?: This is a new type of effects I invented, they basically surround their summoning conditions, eg: "You can Special Summon this card from your hand while you control no monsters, you can instead add 1 level 4 or lower Quartz monster from your deck to your hand to ahve this summon treated as a Normal Summon", also the cards are all WATER attribute Rock types.
Ace Card(s):
Quartz Granite Legionnaire|8|WATER|Synchro/Rock/Effect|ATK/3000 DEF/2800|
1 WATER Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner monster(s)
When this card is Synchro Summoned, you can discard your hand to Special Summon up to 2 level 4 or lower Quartz monster(s) from your hand, you can instead treat one of these Summons as a Normal Summon and remove the Summoned card from play to destroy 2 cards on the field, you cannot activate this effect if you have already Normal Summoned this turn. Whiel you control this face-up card, instead of performing your normal Draw Phase, you can instead add 1 card with "Quartz" in its name from your deck to your hand.

Quartz Diamond|1|WATER|Rock/Tuner|ATK/300 DEF/200| When a "Quartz " monster is Special Summoned from your hand you can negate its effect until the End Phase to Special Summon this card, you can instead treat this summon as a Normal Summon and send this card to the Graveyard to Special Summon 1 "Quartz Diamondillion" from your hand or Deck.

Personality: He is optimistic and always sees the brighter side of things, however he is rule abiding and will often never reslt in breaking the rules, he believes in dueling your heat out and never denying your cards, when dueling he likes to be along, however his real strenghth is revealed when his secret hope of having friends with him arises. He often may be criticizing but solely to outline an underlying message.Due to his success at the academy he has developed a cocky attitude and will often treat the students of the other dorms as lesser duelists.

[spoiler=Bio]
His past isn't paved with gold and silver, he grew up with his father, his mother was an accomplished duelist and had left the family as she saw them as a weight on her shoulder, Yurai learnt about dueling and the proper mechanics through the guidance of his father and grandfather. His father was a geoligist and liked collecting unique rocks, in his collection of over 300 different types of stones/crystals he had 1 remaining the legendary "Quartz" crystal. After searching many years with his father it was only when Yurai at 8 had his leg caught on seaweed, 10 metres deep int he water, at this point his oxygen supply was empty, his father was oblivious to this and had already reached the surface before realizing what was happening. It was only then int he dark water that a bright blue crystallic light revealed itself a blue stream of light had dashed across the water and cut the sea weed releasing Yurai, Yurai was unconsiouse but woke up on the shore of the beach with his father and paramedics next to him, yurai was holding a duel monsters card in his hand, "Quartz Diamond".

it is believed that Quartz Diamond saved Yurai's life, His father also managed to excavate part of the "Quartz" rock from the water, he later told Yurai that the rock floated on the water and drifted into his hand. After a few more eyars of searching Yurai had completed his search for the "Quartz Aquatic Stone" Set. His father gave him the Quartz diamond that Yurai puts int he centre of his belt.

When he turned 16 Yurai was recruited into Duel Academy and quickly rose intot he Obelisk Blue ranks after defeating an Obelisk Blue in his opening match.

Ever since the incidence in the water and the Quartz cards, yurai has felt a strange bond with the cards, as if they are his peace of mind, somethiing brought to his attention during one of his hardest fought duels was that his right eye had on the pupil a light blue glowing "Q" on it. It was lkater researched and discovered to be an intense bond with his cards, its during his hardest duels when his soul is connected to his cards that the unique dueling trait in his eye comes out.[/spoiler]
Faction: D.A
Deck Type: Quartz (Alternate Summon Set)
Alternate Summon?: This is a new type of effects I invented, they basically surround their summoning conditions, eg: "You can Special Summon this card from your hand while you control no monsters, you can instead add 1 level 4 or lower Quartz monster from your deck to your hand to ahve this summon treated as a Normal Summon", also the cards are all WATER attribute Rock types.
Ace Card(s):
Quartz Krustallos Legionnaire|8|WATER|Synchro/Rock/Effect|ATK/3000 DEF/2800|
1 WATER Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner monster(s)
Rock/Synchro/Effect|ATK/3000 DEF/2800| 1 “Quartz” Tuner + 2 or more non-Tuner monsters When this card is Summoned return any number of “Quartz” monsters you control to your Deck, this card can attack 1 additional time for each “Quartz” monster returned by this effect during your next Battle Phase.

Quartz Diamond|1|WATER|Rock/Tuner|ATK/300 DEF/200| When a "Quartz " monster is Special Summoned from your hand you can negate its effect until the End Phase to Special Summon this card, you can instead treat this summon as a Normal Summon and send this card to the Graveyard to Special Summon 1 "Quartz Diamondillion" from your hand or Deck.

Personality: He is ruthless, calus and cold hearted, he is strictly one minded and beleives that pain is a sin, he likes to consider himself the bringer of the "8th" sin. He acts mercilessly, and when speaking maintains his very deep tone he words are allways condesending to prove a point, even with his allies he doesn't consider them friends, his onl bond is that with his "inability to feel pain". He loves to fight, and once started a duel with his cannot end until one duelist is unconsious or worse, he is a psychic duelist, which suports his damage inflicting deck.

[spoiler=Bio]
The Bringer of Pain, as he is called has always been with his state of mind of pain infliction. There were no traumatic experiences in his oast that ingfluenced this, it is said he was born with the natural desire to inflict pain. ASlthough never proven a thought occcurs to some about his past, when he was born a small sample of blood was exchanged from his body and mixed with a Deck famous for its infliction tactics the "Glorious Flame" set. The blood was then injected back into his body, it is thought that this is the reason why he causes real damage. He first discovered his abilities in his first ever deul as a neighbouring bully, at 8 he seriously injured a kid, and due to the circumstances he was pardoned of his infliction of pain, Rafa at 18 was recruited into the shadow order and willingly accepted his soul is intertwined with the order's goals and expectations.

RP Name: Elliot Rune
Age: 15

[spoiler=Appearance:][IMG]http://i812.photobucket.com/albums/zz46/wirespy/l_96f1f19888df99734b3d6dd9aef314-11.jpg[/IMG]

Elliot basically looks like the picture above with Shamrock green-colored eyes. Elliot is about 5'08" in height and weighs 119 lbs. Unlike the picture above, Elliot's jacket doesn't have that army patter if you can see it plus Elliot sometimes can be seen wearing a light blue scarf with a snow pattern on the scarf, however, this is not often. Elliot is also seen with a friendly smile on his face regularly. Elliot can also be seen wearing the Slifer Red outfit.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Personality:]Elliot is a happy, kind, and caring person in a nutshell. Elliot has a positive attitude and outlook on things, even when situations get grim, Elliot will still keep hope and think positively. Though, there are times where he succumbs to despair, but these times are rare considering his nature. Though he is the positive kind, Elliot is not the hyper and energetic kind of person, and sometimes may dislike a person when they're too energetic. Elliot is kind and caring, especially to his friends and family. But overall, Elliot is usally kind and caring to everyday people. Elliot is sometimes shy and reserved, especially to girls. Even a simple hold of the arm by a girl is enough to make him blush wildly. Though usually not being the serious type or the type to anger, Elliot will display these kind of emotions when there are situations involving the wellbeing of others.[/spoiler]

Hopefully these are detailed enough. I didn't do the Bio, since it was optional. I might have a third app sometime soon.

[.:Blu:.]

Can you add a bit more detail Dementuo? Other than that accepted, but just a warning, your Shadow Order character will have to be hidden in the shadows for a bit before he can reveal himself, the story isn't going to jump in right away with the characters in peril lol

[Ghoulish]

might actually make a second app but not sure yet

[.:Blu:.]

Well if you're gonna make a Shadow Order member just know that he/she won't be in the RP's story for awhile. Wow, this RP have more apps than I thought, me and SSD was actually thinking it would be a bit low on apps

[Zextra]

I am definitely reserving

[Dementuo]

K, thanks Blu. I'll try to make the apps slightly more detailed, but there isn't much to add. Without a Bio, that is.
