Quiksilver Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 [center]Hey there! It's Luxray, back with an all-new RP, this one about YuGiOh, if the [YGO] tag didn't clue you on to that. In this RP, we will return to Central Duel Academy- a much different place from when Jaden attended it, and in more ways than one. Now, you're probably groaning at this point- and I don't blame you. There's has been far too many shabby Duel Academy RPs made. However, I am actively working to solve this- in this RP, I aim to get what made Duel Academy so appealing and slough off that which makes it, well, not. So, without further ado, I present- [size="4"][b]Yu-Gi-Oh! Duelist's Prep![/b][/size][/center] [spoiler=Plot] It's a fresh new year at Duel Academy Central, the great school for dueling, located on an island just north of Domino City. High school kids from all backgrounds have been waiting for this day, anxiously waiting to enroll in the school that has spawned such duelists like Jaden Yuki and the Truesdale brothers, as well as having been created by master duelist Seto Kaiba. The summer has drawn to an end, and orientation is starting. The well-known Duel Academy has gone through some changes over the years. For one, the elderly Chancellor Sheppard has retired, and has been replaced by BenoĆ®t Jean-Claude, a Frenchman notorious for being the former European Dueling Champion as well as being one of the most mysterious duelists alive; his past is not even known to most people. The appointment of him as the headmaster of Central Duel Academy caused a bit of controversy, but the gossiping has died down a bit now- a year into his principality and with nothing majorly shocking happening to the School, it was bound to do so. The only things that seem to have been implemented by the use of D-Gazers and the installment of a Riding Circuit, as a new type of Dueling known as "Turbo Dueling" is suddenly becoming famous on the world dueling stage. A renowned Turbo Duelist named Michael Diedrichs has been appointed as overseer of all Riding Duels, as well as teacher of the Riding Duel Basics and Advanced classes. Other than these changes, Jean-Claude keeps himself away from Duel Academy; he doesn't even make public appearances. Instead, most of the day-to-day work of the Academy is handled by Vivian Lang, his vice chancellor. So, it seems after several rocky years of dealing with the Shadow Realm and mad former school superintendents Central Duel Academy is finally settling back down to the peaceful and professional school it once was. Students are flocking in from all corners of the world to attend this prestigious center of learning, just like they have many summers past. However, this year is different. For, the new students enrolling in Central Duel Academy include one special person in particular- you. Yes, you. You are a new freshman, just setting out to attend Central Duel Academy. Armed with deck and duel disk, you aim to learn how to play Duel Monsters and become a champion at the game; you, along with several friends, will battle your way across Duel Academy campus as you become increasingly skilled at this game you will dedicate your life too. Sounds peaceful, right? Wrong. For life at Central Duel Academy will get rocky once more. It will start with a strange series of thefts across the island, but will lead to so much more. What will happen in the next four years is so momentous that Duel Academy, and the entire universe, hang in the balance. Joy, triumph, sorrow, and misery; these all await you at Central Duel Academy. You and your friends, a small group of duelists must stand against forces much larger and stronger, for you might be the only chance we have to save everything we hold dear. The fate of this world and countless others rests in your hands... It's going to be an interesting high school experience, all right.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Central Duel Academy] [spoiler=Duel Academy layout] Unfortunately, I couldn't find a good image of the Duel Academy layout, so I copied the image provided in the anime. This is unfortunate because it only provides an overview of the island, without specifying where the dorms and other buildings are. So, I circled several areas in order to show you where the dorms are, but, if someone had an actual image of the layout of Central Duel Academy, I'd be much obliged. In any case, here it is: [IMG]http://i56.tinypic.com/28rjwg8.jpg[/IMG] Key: Red Circle- Slifer Red dorms Yellow Circle: Ra Gold dorms Blue Circle: Obelisk Blue dorms White Circle: Gym I didn't put a circle around the Main Academy Building, since it's the most noticeable- it's the large domed building in the center. Also, a change has been made; the Gym has been outfitted with a Riding Circuit, which goes counter-clockwise around the volcano, behind the Main Academy Building, and back to the Gym. [/spoiler] [spoiler=Dorms] The dorms have changed a bit since last time; dorm placement is due more to skill than money or influence, resulting in some snobbish rich kids in Slifer Red, and vice versa. It is not uncommon for students to advance in dorms throughout their high school education; Red tends to be made up of freshmen, and Blue of juniors and seniors, while Gold is a medley of all four, though there are exceptions. Nevertheless, there is a certain type of dorm rivalry between the dorms. Here is the location and description for each dorm. [b]Slifer Red[/b]- Located on a bluff overlooking the sea, Slifer Red is the lowest of the three dorms. It's small dormitory resembles a two-story motel, though it's been considerably upgraded and expanded so as to include a girl's dorm as well. While small, it's homely and has great ocean views. [b]Ra Gold[/b]- The middle dorm, Ra Gold is more prestigious than Slifer Red but less prestigious than Obelisk Blue. It's dormitory house is a large two-story house with large windows and terraces for looking out over the island. A second, near-identical house has also been constructed for the girls, as well. [b]Obelisk Blue[/b]- The most prestigious dorm of the Academy, Obelisk Blues are the strongest duelists of the academy. As such, they have the biggest dorms- the boy's dorm is a large castle-like building on the waters edge while the girl's dorms are actually on the water- it's an L-shaped building in the style of the boy's dorm that is actually on the lake to the right of the Main Academy Building, with large supports that are anchored in the lake floor.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Dueling] There are two types of Dueling in Duel Academy; [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Duel"]Regular Duels[/url] and [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Riding_Duel"]Turbo Duels[/url]. I presume most of you know the rules for both, but in any case links have been provided. In this RP, you are free to use whatever cards you wish, as long as they adhere to the current Banlist. No anime cards allowed; only cards currently in print, either TCG or OCG. We'll be dueling through YCM, and not any online duel simulator, and while this gives you quite a lot of freedom in choices of cards, be aware I will be on the lookout for any fishy plays. Please, don't use outrageous combos or once-in-a-lifetime cards; be realistic and fair while dueling, please. There is also a second thing to note for dueling; Central Duel Academy has implemented a "Duel Points" (abbr. DP) systems in the academy, which is tracked by your D-Gazer. Simply put, the DP system tracks your dueling wins and losses, and adds virtual points for you based on the skill level of your opponent, your method of winning, how many turns you won in, etc. DP allows you to "purchase" things at the Academy- these range from class passes to allowing certain people to get into the lunch line first. However, the most thing DP is used for is dorm progression- when you gain enough DP, which differs from dorm to dorm, you may challenge the head teacher of the next dorm (Slifer Red > Ra Gold > Obelisk Blue) and if you win, you move into that dorm. I will track all our DP amounts and if you ask, I can tell you what you can currently purchase with your DP. I will also update the OoC thread whenever someone gains enough DP to try and progress up a dorm.[/spoiler] [/spoiler] [spoiler=Rules] 1. All Advanced Clause Rules apply. 2. Please do not request to be co-host, or the second Game Master (if you actually read through this post). If you deserve it, I might let you on as an owner. 3. Related to what I said in the rule above, I will be doing the Game Master method of RP-hosting. Basically, I can GM post, which is what I use to effect the entire world, and my regular posts, which are just my character(s), like everyone else. I've seen this work out well in other RPs, and hopefully it will work here as well. 4. Custom cards are not allowed. At least, not without my permission. PM me the cards you wish to have, and I'll decide whether or not to include them. Anyone using custom cards without my permission will be instantly banned. 5. Have fun. Also, there is no secret thing you must add to your app- I expect you all to be mature enough to read this entire post before posting, and also, I already have you copying down decklists, and I don't want to add more to that workload. 6. It's okay to lose. Don't pull crap because you don't want to lose. I'll be keeping an eye on all duels happening, so don't make up outrageous combos just because I'm letting you make up which cards you draw. 7. Before starting a duel, please write something like "Duel Commencing: X versus Y" just so it makes it easier for me to find duels. For both, it would be much appreciated if you give me a heads-up in the OoC thread when starting and ending a duel. 8. At the end of each post in the duel, list your LP, cards in your hand, and the cards on the field. It should look something like this: LP: 4000 Monsters: Red Gadget, two Set monsters Spells/Traps: Call of the Haunted, three Set cards Cards in Hand: 2 9. Also, when they are finished, but something like "Duel End." For both, it would be much appreciated if you give me a heads-up in the OoC thread when starting and ending a duel. 10. Before using an OTK or FTK, please consult the other player in a duel first, just so it doesn't turn into a big fight, ok? It would probably also be a good idea to talk to the other guy about who wins before doing so, as well. 11. You may have up to 3 characters and no more.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Application] Delete everything in brackets. [code] [spoiler=Username - Player Name] [b]Username:[/b] --- [b]Player Name:[/b] {First and last are required. Middle is optional. Nothing too outrageous.} [b]Age:[/b] {Everyone MUST start in their freshman year, i.e. 14, but if your character started school late or something, you can put 15, and if they skipped a grade, you can put 13, and so on.} [b]Gender:[/b] [b]Date of Birth:[/b] [b]Personality:[/b] {At least a paragraph is required.} [b]Appearance:[/b] - Height: {Preferably in feet and centimeters.

I'll fill in your schedule once I've accepted your app. I want to do this so I can make sure our classes line up, we have the same amount of classes, et cetera.} [b]Example Post:[/b] {This is purely optional. It's for those who don't want to be in Slifer Red, which is the default dorm. For this, I want you to post about a defining trait about your character- if he's a trickster, make a paragraph or two about him pranking someone. Good people who try this will land in Ra Gold, while I will reserve Obelisk Blue for those whom I think did the best in their example posts. But don't worry- you aren't assigned to a dorm for life. There will be plenty of chances to progress to higher dorms in-RP.}[/spoiler][/code] [/spoiler] [spoiler=Accepted Applicants] [spoiler=Luxray - Trent Connelly] [i]This will most likely be one of several characters I use on a regular basis, as well as some NPCs I use only a couple of times. Also, there will probably be a couple of times in the future where I withhold the NPC's biography- this is for conversational purposes, to bring the characters closer together as they discuss their histories as such. I won't be doing this with this app, but be warned for in the future.[/i] [b]Username:[/b] Luxray --- [b]Player Name:[/b] Trent Connelly [b]Age:[/b] 14 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Date of Birth:[/b] 4/22/96 [b]Personality:[/b] Trent is the kid that the teacher immediately labels as trouble as soon as they walk in the room. Mischievous, the class clown, and prone to the occasional prank, Trent is the type of guy whom you either love or hate, depending on your character. Also quite a bit laid-back and lazy, Trent has a type of "go with the flow" attitude, which doesn't go over well with teachers, who always push him to do harder. It's not that he's dumb or anything- as a matter of fact, he's quite smart. He just doesn't have the motivation, which is mostly why he ended up in Slifer Red. Although it wouldn't be fair to say it's hard to get Trent excited about things, he doesn't have a passion for most things, rather a passing interest. Trent also tends to be a bit on the erratic side. His attitude, as mentioned before, is go with the flow- which makes him very bad at planning ahead. He is spontaneous and decides things on a whim, which can be good or bad depending on the situation. However, there is one good thing that comes from this- he's quite adaptable as a result. In unexpected situations, Trent is always the first one to respond. [b]Appearance:[/b] - Height: 5'9'' - Weight: 149 lbs - Body Shape: Slim - Hair Color & Style: Trent has long, scruffy, black hair. It reaches down to the bottom of his neck and slightly spikes upward at the edges. It covers his forehead and constantly falls into his eyes, which is usually just an excuse for Trent to flick his head to the side fashionably. - Eye Color: Forest green; as said, they usually disappear under Trent's mane of hair. - Clothing: Trent generally wears a short-sleeved white shirt with a large green sweatshirt that bulks out his skinny frame. He wears stone-washed jeans with this ensemble, paired with a cool black-and-white checkered belt. Large gold and white shoes round out this outfit, with a few accessories like the occasional baseball hat as well. [b]Bio:[/b] Born into a moderately wealthy family in America, Trent's family always had a thing for Duel Monsters. The son of a world-class duelist, Trent was groomed from birth to follow in his father's footsteps. He wasn't exactly interested in it, per se, but played the game to suit his parent's wishes. Over time, he got used to it- playing Duel Monsters become almost like breathing to him, although he still lacked motivation for it. His parents, noticing it, talked to their mutual friend, the headmaster of Central Duel Academy about it, and quietly set up for Trent to join their academy. They surprised him with it on his fourteenth birthday, and in his lackadaisical way, Trent agreed to go. Maybe at Central Duel Academy Trent will finally discover a passion for this game... --- [b]Deck:[/b] Trent runs a Synchro Macro Deck, using the splashable effects of the D.D. Monsters to quickly summon Synchro Monsters and use them to overwhelm the field. Psychic Monsters are often used due to their ability to Summon quickly.

[b]Dorm:[/b] [color="#FF0000"]Slifer Red[/color] [/spoiler] [spoiler=Naimo - Kelsie Jayne] [b]Username:[/b] Naimo --- [b]Player Name:[/b] Kelsie Jayne [b]Age:[/b] 14 [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Date of Birth:[/b] 11/11/1996 [b]Personality:[/b] When one first meets Kelsie, she appears to be very quiet, untalkative and somewhat withdrawn into her own world. That's because she cannot speak properly, which is why she says nothing at all. This causes some awkward problems when she first meets people, as she has to write down everything she says, but when one is friendlier to her, Kelsie starts to come alive. Kelsie hates people treating her like she's stupid, and she tends to hit people for that reason, hence she is often misunderstood as having a violent disposition. It doesn't help either that she is very tough and somewhat stubborn, and is willing to get into physical fights if she is forced to. Although she has accepted that she will need to rely on people to speak for her at occasions, she is otherwise fiercely independant, and will insist on doing things exactly as she sees fit; she feeds heavily on pride and praise, and if she makes a blunder or looses a duel, she tries not to break down (that has happened before), and instead focuses on how to bounce back. [b]Appearance:[/b] - Height: 5'5" - Weight: 112lb - Body Shape: Regular - Hair Color & Style: Kelsie has straight, very neat shoulder-length auburn hair that curls outwards at the end. - Eye Color: Silver-blue - Clothing: Kelsie wears a black and purple tailcoat that appears to be supported by a crinoline, as it is so wide she has to walk sideways through doors in order to get in. Underneath, she usually wears a blouse and black skinny jeans, and on her feet are a pair of trainers. She has to wear a belt so that she can carry her deck with her at all times. She continues to wear her duel disk on her right arm. Kelsie wears no jewelry, although she does clip back her hair (so as to create a side fringe) with a clip that has a white and pink fake rose. [b]Bio:[/b] Kelsie's parents hadn't suspected anything unusual about her when she was born, but it was soon discovered by doctors that her vocal cords hadn't properly developed when she was in her mother's womb, which has resulted in her unable to grasp language. To make up for it, Kelsie has shown an unusual attraction to duelling since she was about three; while her father was an accountant, her mother had once been a lesser known Professional Duellist, and it was the latter that encouraged Kelsie to duel. At first, her mother had hoped that Kelsie might be a Psychic Duellist - so as to give her a voice, and to make her life less difficult - but as Kelsie grew older, it became obvious that she was just a normal girl. Her mother then made the decision to send her to Central Duel Academy; although it seemed risky for a dumb girl to go there, her mother had confidence that Kelsie would do just fine. Besides, how likely was it that something dramatic and plot-like would happen during Kelsie's time at the Duel Academy? (Oh the irony) --- [b]Deck:[/b] Kelsie's deck is Warrior-based, and is revolved around Synchro Summoning Colossal Fighter, as well as re-using the Tuners to bring out other monsters. Some of her key cards include [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Colossal_Fighter]Colossal Fighter[/url], [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Junk_Synchron]Junk Synchron[/url] and [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Turret_Warrior]Turret Warrior[/url].

[b]Dorm:[/b] [color="#FFA500"]Ra Gold[/color][/spoiler] [spoiler=Democar - Emma Butler] [b]Username:[/b] Democar --- [b]Player Name:[/b] Emma Butler [b]Age:[/b] 14 [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Date of Birth:[/b] April 8th, 1996 [b]Personality:[/b] Emma's mind is sharp and especially adapted to puzzle solving, making her a fine duelist. She actively hates her deck, which was a gift passed on to her from her sister, because she feels responsible to use it yet understands that it hinders her performance due to its lackluster cards. In order to become a stronger person, her ultimate goal in life, she tries to duel those who are better than her, only to go into a depressed mood if she loses. For this reason she cherishes her friends and remains loyal to them, knowing that they can comfort her and help her feel better. She has little respect for people who she views as weak that refuse to become stronger, like she decided to for herself. Furthermore, she can be a little cold, usually offering little sympathy for people's troubles and leaving them to figure them out for themselves. Her personality is a little off putting for some, and at times she can be polarizing. Still, no one can deny her abilities, which some people envy while she is never satisfied with them. [b]Appearance:[/b] - Height: 5'4" - Weight: 98lb - Body Shape: Slim - Hair Color & Style: Light blonde hair that drops slightly above the waste in a straight fashion. - Eye Color: Dark blue. - Clothing: Emma tends to wear blank t-shirts and jeans, nothing too fancy. [b]Bio:[/b] Emma's father died shortly after Emma's birth, leaving her older sister to take care of her and her ill mother. Always looking up to her sister because of her will and strength, Emma took note of her own weak character at an early age and actively worked to make herself stronger. Noticing her strength with puzzles and strategy, her mother got Emma involved with Duel Monsters, a popular card game. Emma's sister was her only opponent in their small town, and despite her intellect, Emma could never beat her sister in a duel, further propelling her wish to become stronger. Around the age of twelve, her sister became sick with a disease that ran in the family, dying shortly after. With the responsibility of taking care of her mother passed down on to her, Emma nearly gave up dueling, throwing away her cards. However, her mother insisted in Emma enrolling in Duel Academy, and that Emma did not have to worry about taking care of her, for some relatives needed a place to stay and offered to take care of her for some time. Taking her sister's deck and some spare cards she found around the house, she set out to Duel Academy, ready to become stronger than her sister had ever been. --- [b]Deck:[/b] Emma's deck focuses on taking control of enemy's monsters and using them for her advantage. Being mainly composed of Charmer monsters, she has some other additions, the two most notable being the Maiden in Love and Secret Village of the Spellcasters.

[b]Dorm:[/b] [color="#FF0000"]Slifer Red[/color][/spoiler] [spoiler=Shradow - Hiro Blaine] [b]Username:[/b] Shradow --- [b]Player Name:[/b] Hiro Blaine [b]Age:[/b] 14 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Date of Birth:[/b] January 16th, 1996 [b]Personality:[/b] Hiro is relatively social, however he gets nervous very often, incredibly so around girls, and stutters whenever he does so. He also suffers from clumsiness and bad eyesight, the former possibly being because of the latter. He tends to clean up everything around him, and while not quite a germophobe, but possibly a tad OCD, his room is always sparkling clean and he scolds those who make a mess. Despite this, he is very intelligent and a skilled duelist, but is never one to brag or belittle one of lesser skill. While normally timid and quiet, for some reason, in a duel his nervousness disappears and he never stutters during, becoming confident and outspoken. Giving up hope never occurs to him and he always duels to his full potential. No matter the outcome, Hiro is content, and reverts back to his nervous self the second the Life Points hit 0. When it comes to other people, Hiro is very friendly, even to those who don't particularly like him. He never resorts to violence, even if physical force is used against him. He's also very protective, and if a friend of his is being bullied, he doesn't hesitate to step in. [b]Appearance:[/b] - Height: 5'2" - Weight: 110 - Body Shape: Slim - Hair Color & Style: Straight black hair, shoulder length and parted in the middle. - Eye Color: Green. - Clothing: Hiro usually wears dark blue jeans with cargo pockets, and some t-shirt. However, he almost always wears a black pull over hoodie over it. His glasses are silver, half rimmed, and have a small crack on the right lense. His shoes are always tennis shoes. [b]Bio:[/b] Hiro's life was pretty normal for the school punching bag. He was small and not very outgoing as he grew up, and thus was the target of bullies at school since elementary. No one ever stood up for him or even hanged out with him except his one friend. At the time, Hiro couldn't duel himself, but his friend always showed him his cards and let him watch his duels, and they would talk about duel monsters for hours a day. However, one day, on the walk to school, a car screeched off the road and came right at them. His friend pushed Hiro out of the way, getting hit by the car himself. He died in Hiro's arms, leaving him his deck with his final words, with his favorite card, the Raging Flame Sprite. After that Hiro stayed quiet at school, and the bullies, along with everyone else, left him alone. He promised himself after that day he would become a skilled duelist, in remembrance of his friend. He studied book after book, and dueled anyone who was willing. He never lost spirit if he lost, and was intent on becoming better. When he had become what a duelist that he hoped would make his friend proud, he asked to be enrolled in Duel Academy, and his parents agreed without a thought. --- [b]Deck:[/b] Hiro's deck features around the card [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Raging_Flame_Sprite]Raging Flame Sprite[/url] (he has 3). His strategies include powering them up as quickly as possible with cards like [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Twin_Swords_of_Flashing_Light_-_Tryce]Twin Swords of Flashing Light - Tryce[/url], or using stalling tactics with cards like [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Swords_of_Revealing_Light]Swords of Revealing Light[/url] so as not to be as pressed for time. However, he isn't entirely reliant on them and his deck also constsists of a combination of [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Volcanic]Volcanic[/url] and [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Flamvell]Flamvell[/url] cards.

She doesn't tolerate jokes about things like racism or death, and will hurt anyone who jokes about paraplegia. Most commonly, she runs them down with her wheelchair. Despite this, she does like a good joke every now and then. Some good, clean humor is what makes Heika laugh. Despite her disability, she seems to be the main target for male affection. Flowers are often sent to her dorm from nameless guys on the campus, and her email inbox is flooded with mail. She knows how to shoot down an admirer without him even realizing he's been rejected. She also likes to toy with men, although she really doesn't know what she's doing. She got one boy to buy her a gold necklace, which she later sold. [b]Appearance:[/b] Heika is tragically confined to a wheelchair. Not using her legs caused the muscle to deteriorate, and made them thin and fragile. However, her upper body doubled in strength, as she originally had a manual wheelchair. Her wheelchair now, which is electronic, has a Duel Disk attached to it, and pulls up and out, like food trays in an airplane. Her pale skin matches her her blue hair, but she often wears foundation, making her facial tone darker and less pale. - Height: 5'01" - Weight: 91 lbs. - Body Shape: Her legs are skinny, from her disability. Her upper body, however, is five years older than she is. - Hair Color & Style: Light Blue, tied into a ponytail that reaches halfway down her neck. - Eye Color: Blue - Clothing: Heika has a habit for the color blue. She wears jeans quite often, when she isn't in school uniform. She changes the ribbon that keeps her hair in a ponytail so often, that one may think it changes itself. [b]Bio:[/b] Heika was always an athletic girl. She loved to run, but her favorite pastime was riding her D-wheel in the wind. She drove it anywhere she could find, often getting into trouble with prefects. Her riding life was ended quickly when she crashed with another runner. Her runner was based mostly on leg mobility, and so when her legs were rendered unusable by the crash, she went into a prolonged state of depression. She would practice self-mutilation at times, and seriously considered suicide. However, her parents built an attachment to her wheelchair that allowed it to function like a normal D-Wheel. Immediately after receiving it, she immediately went to test it out. She went to racing courses, and beat many best times. Riding was her passion, but so was charity. 75% of her prize money went to an charities, and the rest went to supporting her family. She very rarely kept money for herself. After one of her races, a recruiter from Central Academy met up with Heika. He said that he knew about her charitable side, and that he was prepared to offer her a full scholarship to Central Academy, provided she become captain of the racing team. She gratefully accepted, and ran home to tell her parents. Unfortunately, a sore loser from one of Heika's previous races, ransacked the house. During the robbery, Heika's father was shot twice. As paramedics took him to the hospital, he wished her luck at Central Academy, and told her, "[i]I always wanted to go there, but my family couldn't afford to..."[/i]. She rode in the ambulance. She stayed in the hospital with her father for three days, but his wounds were too great. He died in the ICU a little before midnight on the third day. She decided to head to Central Academy to live out her father's dream. --- [b]Deck:[/b] Terminal Garden is based off of locking the opponent's Main Phases through a combination of [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Timeater"]Timeater[/url] and [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Terminal_World"]Terminal World[/url]. Terminal World, while active, keeps either player from conducting a Main Phase 2, while Timeater prevents the opponent's Main Phase 1 when it destroys something by battle. Since Timeater only has 1900 ATK, [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Black_Garden"]Black Garden[/url] is often used to give Timeater something to run over. In the case that the opponent is able to summon, cards like Neo-Spacian Grand Mole are used to get rid of anything particularly nasty.

She is very gullible and naive, and as she still has a firm belief in things such as fairies many consider her weird and tease her for it. Some people find this naiveity cute and it gives her a childish innocense that people tend to either find annoying or adorable. She is also easily hurt and has a hard time grasping things like irony and sarcasm, which often leads to her getting sad when someone was actually making a joke. When she's saddened she tends to walk (or run) away as she hates it when people see her cry. Gabrielle also tends to cry when she's angry, but in these cases she doesn't run away. Instead, she takes the arguement, tears streaming from her piercing eyes of female fury. Even if she's angry she tends not to throw punches or physical as she's mostly a pacifist. It has happened that she gets violent though, but it's not common. Even though she's a bit of a "cry baby", Gabrielle is no coward and she always speaks her mind. This sometimes gets her in trouble though, as she tends to say [i]exactly[/i] what's on her mind and she doesn't always know when she should just keep quiet. Due to her personality she has troubles when it comes to dueling. She's quite easy to read as she hasn't grasped the meaning of "poker face" at all and she sometimes tend to say what she sets on the field. Opponent's that know of her being gullible often use this to their advantage by tricking her and playing mind games. People often dislike having her close by when they're dueling someone else as she tends to comment on cards they draw or play on the field, thus informing their opponent(s) about their cards. Even though she's not an excellent duelist herself (okay to be fair, she's not much of a duelist at all) Gabrielle still loves the game, as she knows it's just that: a game. To her it's not about winning or losing, it's about having fun and making friends, and it's very unusual for her to walk away from a duel without a smile on her face (no matter the outcome of the duel). [b]Appearance:[/b] - Height: 5'5''/170cm - Weight: 143lbs/65kg - Body Shape: slightly thinner than average - Hair Color & Style: She has wavy blonde hair that reaches her waist, with a crown braid going around undeneith (being visible by the hairline in the front) and functioning a bit like a headband. - Eye Color: Emerald green - Clothing: When outside of her school uniform Gabrielle usually wears brightly colored sundresses with floral patterns. If the weather is too cold for that she usually just wears plain jeans along with a cute top, maybe along with a cardigan or jacket in a matching color. She tends to favor the colors green and pink in her clothing choices, although she usually doesn't wear green and pink together as it's hard to match. When it comes to shoes she usually wears sandals or tennis shoes. [b]Bio:[/b] Gabrielle grew up in the suburbs of Domino City along with her parents and two older sisters (who are both students at the Duelist's Prep School). Her father has been absent for a large part of her life as he works in the army, but he always made time to see his family as often as possible (at least for a weekend every four months), and as such Gabrielle was raised mostly by her mother and older siblings. Her mother is a freelance writer and as such she could work from home, thus being able to keep up with both work and children with much more ease. As she was basically growing up in a single parent household Gabrielle learned early on about responsibility and chores, something that has made her quite independent in terms of cooking and cleaning. Gabrielle was often made fun of in school due to her innocent and naive personality. She was even brought to tears about four years ago when she was teased about still believing in santa (she still refuses to admit that Santa is not real). Even though she was teased she still had a couple of friends, so she wasn't a complete outcast. Her older sisters, being two and three years older than Gabrielle, were the ones that introduced her to dueling and are the reason to why Gabrielle plays. To her it was never about the game itself, it was about spending time and playing with her sisters. Of course she loved the game itself too, but the love for it originated from the good times she had when playing with her sisters. However, compared to her sisters, Marie and Josephine, Gabrielle is not much of a duelist. Gabrielle strives to become better at the game and advance in the dorms, wanting to make her sisters, who both started in Ra Gold, proud. --- Deck: Gabrielle uses a deck revolving around the [url="http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/247451-angels-angels-angels-so-many-angels/page__gopid__5168589#entry5168589"]Angel Archetype[/url]. Angels are Fairy-Type monsters that cannot be destroyed by battle and who return to the owner's Deck after they've battled, much like the Gladiator Beasts. Similarly to Gladiator Beasts, Angels have their effects activated when they are "tagged out" by another Angel. However, opposed to the Gladiator Beasts, Angels can only tag out one specific Angel and their effects are only activated if they are tagged out by a certain Angel. The key cards for the Angel Archetype, and of course Gabrielle's Deck as well, are the "Angel X" monsters, which are quite hard to summon but that wreck havoc while they remain on the field and can completely turn the tables when they appear. As of now there are only 2 "Angel X" monsters known, "Angel X1" and "Angel XO", but there might be more of them in store for the future.

Naimo Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 [spoiler=Naimo - Kelsie Jayne] [b]Username:[/b] Naimo --- [b]Player Name:[/b] Kelsie Jayne [b]Age:[/b] 14 [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Date of Birth:[/b] 11/11/1996 [b]Personality:[/b] When one first meets Kelsie, she appears to be very quiet, untalkative and somewhat withdrawn into her own world. That's because she cannot speak properly, which is why she says nothing at all. This causes some awkward problems when she first meets people, as she has to write down everything she says, but when one is friendlier to her, Kelsie starts to come alive. Kelsie hates people treating her like she's stupid, and she tends to hit people for that reason, hence she is often misunderstood as having a violent disposition. It doesn't help either that she is very tough and somewhat stubborn, and is willing to get into physical fights if she is forced to. Although she has accepted that she will need to rely on people to speak for her at occasions, she is otherwise fiercely independant, and will insist on doing things exactly as she sees fit; she feeds heavily on pride and praise, and if she makes a blunder or looses a duel, she tries not to break down (that has happened before), and instead focuses on how to bounce back. [b]Appearance:[/b] - Height: 5'5" - Weight: 112lb - Body Shape: Regular - Hair Color & Style: Kelsie has straight, very neat shoulder-length auburn hair that curls outwards at the end. - Eye Color: Silver-blue - Clothing: Kelsie wears a black and purple tailcoat that appears to be supported by a crinoline, as it is so wide she has to walk sideways through doors in order to get in. Underneath, she usually wears a blouse and black skinny jeans, and on her feet are a pair of trainers. She has to wear a belt so that she can carry her deck with her at all times. She continues to wear her duel disk on her right arm. Kelsie wears no jewelry, although she does clip back her hair (so as to create a side fringe) with a clip that has a white and pink fake rose. [b]Bio:[/b] Kelsie's parents hadn't suspected anything unusual about her when she was born, but it was soon discovered by doctors that her vocal cords hadn't properly developed when she was in her mother's womb, which has resulted in her unable to grasp language. To make up for it, Kelsie has shown an unusual attraction to duelling since she was about three; while her father was an accountant, her mother had once been a lesser known Professional Duellist, and it was the latter that encouraged Kelsie to duel. At first, her mother had hoped that Kelsie might be a Psychic Duellist - so as to give her a voice, and to make her life less difficult - but as Kelsie grew older, it became obvious that she was just a normal girl. Her mother then made the decision to send her to Central Duel Academy; although it seemed risky for a dumb girl to go there, her mother had confidence that Kelsie would do just fine. Besides, how likely was it that something dramatic and plot-like would happen during Kelsie's time at the Duel Academy? (Oh the irony) --- [b]Deck:[/b] Kelsie's deck is Warrior-based, and is revolved around Synchro Summoning Colossal Fighter, as well as re-using the Tuners to bring out other monsters. Some of her key cards include [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Colossal_Fighter]Colossal Fighter[/url], [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Junk_Synchron]Junk Synchron[/url] and [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Turret_Warrior]Turret Warrior[/url]. [b]Schedule:[/b] [b]Example Post:[/b] [spoiler=Post] Kelsie hated meeting new people. Well, not "hate" - maybe that word was a bit too strong; "dislike" was probably better. It wasn't her fault that she couldn't speak - not that she wanted to blame it on her mother, it wasn't exactly her fault either - but she just despised the way that people reacted to her. This meeting was no different either; so far, she had shaken hands with three people, and although each had been curious and eager to meet her initially, the moment she started scribbling on her notebook and explaining that she couldn't speak, the dynamic changed. Everyone had jumped to their own conclusions that she was deaf, and began speaking in that unnaturally slow, patronising way, like she was an infant; although she [i]was[/i] only fourteen, and therefore not old enough to be considered an adult, she really hated being patronised. She must have looked angrily at them, because they had all shut up after literally six or seven words, made a very weak excuse, and promptly scuttled away to someone less would-be-aggressive with fully functioning vocal cords. Kelsie couldn't winge at her behaviour, she was too used to it anyway; what she really seeked was somebody intelligent who wouldn't treat her like she was different. Yes, reality may have made her different, but she was still human with a passion for duelling. Alas, she really was stood facing the ugly side of society. The fourth person she met appeared fine; he was a boy about the same size and height as her, although there was a sharp, unfriendly stare in his eyes, and his lips curled, alive with very troublesome mischief. He introduced himself as Rod, and when it came to Kelsie, she wrote down her name and explained she was unable to speak. She almost immediately regretted lingering with him, because he burst out loud laughing and said something so unpleasant Naimo will not even dream of putting it down here - and immediately, Kelsie's volcanic anger exploded. Her dragonic wrath formed itself in her fists, and she punched him directly on the nose. He yelped as he fell over backwards, blood splatters staining his hands, and Kelsie leapt onto him. He recountered by trying to hit her back, just as her second fist slammed into the side of his face again, cutting short his would-be attack as he changed focus, and instead tried to scramble out of her clutch. Her countenance was terrifying to behold, her eyes alight with fire, her teeth so ferociously gritted she was in danger of chipping them with her own upper/lower teeth. In that moment, she lost any femininity about her, and her blows, though limited only to two, were devastating; the volcano had exploded, and there was no way that she would stop. She grabbed him by the scruff of his shirt, and would have kicked him had several people not dragged them apart in time. While Rod was being treated for (Kelsie had both broken his nose and bruised him), people were either looking at her in terror, or shocked, or appalled. Several people demanded to know why she hit him, and when she was reunited with her notepad and pen, scribbled down her reason. [i]He insulted me, the filthy disgusting b******d. You would have attacked him if you heard him.[/i] She could barely write properly, for her hands were shaking through uncalmed anger. If only she could elaborate! But her rage blocked her from writing down the very words he had used, and yet, Kelsie still had the impulse that no matter what she wrote, everybody else was still going to scold her for launching the attack.

He competed in a few local tournament, and came 2nd or 3rd for most of them. He is very friendly, but hates anyone who acts like they are better than everyone. He seems to always make lots of friends, and is never alone. The only time he gets angry is when someone tries to hurt someone else, physicaly or mentaly. If that happens, he can go beserk and seriously hurt someone. He tends to blurt things out, making him often lose some of his friends for long periods of time. Other than that, he is usually quite nice. When he duels, he gets serious and becomes completely focused on what he is going to do next. He plans every duel, considering every move he knows an opponent can make, and then taking action. He likes to have fun though, and always tries to make his friends laugh.

He has blue denim jeans. He wears Black converse shoes, and plain black socks. He always has his duel disk on his left arm, and even wears it while he sleeps. He has a black watch on his left arm, underneath the duel disk. He always seems to wear the same clothes, and it is belived by many people that he never washes them, despite them always being completely clean. [b]Bio:[/b] Nothing eventful really happened in Aiden's life. His mother was a nice lady, and had always been genorous. His father was a bit stern, but still very nice to his son. He lived in a small town on the edge of a city, where his father works at industrial illusions, which is were he got his mainspring cards. One day, he saw some kids playing a card game in the park. He went over and asked them what they were doing, and through so, discovered duel monsters. After a few games with the kids, he started to get the hang of it and found he was pretty good at dueling. One day, after winning a local tournament, he came home, and his parents had a surprise for him. They had got him a chance to apply to an unlocal duel academy, famous for its high exam results. Aiden was very happy to except. --- [b]Deck:[/b] He uses a "Mainspring" deck, cards that he got from his father, and were cancled before they were officialy made, so Aiden has the only ones.

rustyowl Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 [spoiler=Democar - Emma Butler] [b]Username:[/b] Democar --- [b]Player Name:[/b] Emma Butler [b]Age:[/b] 14 [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Date of Birth:[/b] April 8th, 1996 [b]Personality:[/b] Emma's mind is sharp and especially adapted to puzzle solving, making her a fine duelist. She actively hates her deck, which was a gift passed on to her from her sister, because she feels responsible to use it yet understands that it hinders her performance due to its lackluster cards. In order to become a stronger person, her ultimate goal in life, she tries to duel those who are better than her, only to go into a depressed mood if she loses. For this reason she cherishes her friends and remains loyal to them, knowing that they can comfort her and help her feel better. She has little respect for people who she views as weak that refuse to become stronger, like she decided to for herself. Furthermore, she can be a little cold, usually offering little sympathy for people's troubles and leaving them to figure them out for themselves. Her personality is a little off putting for some, and at times she can be polarizing. Still, no one can deny her abilities, which some people envy while she is never satisfied with them. [b]Appearance:[/b] - Height: 5'4" - Weight: 98lb - Body Shape: Slim - Hair Color & Style: Light blonde hair that drops slightly above the waste in a straight fashion. - Eye Color: Dark blue. - Clothing: Emma tends to wear blank t-shirts and jeans, nothing too fancy. [b]Bio:[/b] Emma's father died shortly after Emma's birth, leaving her older sister to take care of her and her ill mother. Always looking up to her sister because of her will and strength, Emma took note of her own weak character at an early age and actively worked to make herself stronger. Noticing her strength with puzzles and strategy, her mother got Emma involved with Duel Monsters, a popular card game. Emma's sister was her only opponent in their small town, and despite her intellect, Emma could never beat her sister in a duel, further propelling her wish to become stronger. Around the age of twelve, her sister became sick with a disease that ran in the family, dying shortly after. With the responsibility of taking care of her mother passed down on to her, Emma nearly gave up dueling, throwing away her cards. However, her mother insisted in Emma enrolling in Duel Academy, and that Emma did not have to worry about taking care of her, for some relatives needed a place to stay and offered to take care of her for some time. Taking her sister's deck and some spare cards she found around the house, she set out to Duel Academy, ready to become stronger than her sister had ever been. --- [b]Deck:[/b] Emma's deck focuses on taking control of enemy's monsters and using them for her advantage. Being mainly composed of Charmer monsters, she has some other additions, the two most notable being the Maiden in Love and Secret Village of the Spellcasters.

Quiksilver Posted April 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 @Psychic Almighty: First, Nova Sands, really? Why would he have such a name? You give no indictation for the reason he would have such an outrageous name, and if he did have that name, wouldn't he be teased by his friends about it? Instead, you said that his life was completely ordinary- something else I rather don't like. The bio is poorly done, talking about all the things he "didn't" do. I don't care if his life is boring, just say something about his parents, or where he lived during his youth, or why he got into Duel Monsters in the first place. Personality as well- give Nova some flaws. Right now, he's perfect in nearly every way, unless you don't count his tendency to hurt bullies, which is more ways than not makes Nova seem like your typical "hero" character. Also, get rid of the picture- you don't need it, seeing as how you filled out the description regardless. I personally dislike pictures when using them for apps- they limit your creativity in designing your character. Exceeds are fine, by the way, but I need more than one key card. You are [b]not accepted[/b]. I'm sorry, but right now, Nova Sands is bland and boring, and doesn't say much about your roleplaying skill as well. You need to make some serious changes before I can accept you. @Democar: Nice app. Emma should create some interesting tensions, just like Kelsie- good to see we're not having any Mary Sues around here. Next time, please link the cards to the YGO Wikia, but since I recognize both cards, it's fine. Before I accept you, I must ask- you wish to remain in Slifer Red, is that why you deleted the Example Post? @Shradow: Yes, it is, but I prefer Gold because it seems to more befit the character of "The Winged Dragon of Ra" and just seems more appropriate for a prestigious school dorm. This messes up the whole primary colors thing, I guess, so feel free to call it what you wish. Reserved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shradow Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 [spoiler=Shradow - Hiro Blaine] [b]Username:[/b] Shradow --- [b]Player Name:[/b] Hiro Blaine [b]Age:[/b] 14 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Date of Birth:[/b] January 16th, 1996 [b]Personality:[/b] Hiro is relatively social, however he gets nervous very often, incredibly so around girls, and stutters whenever he does so. He also suffers from clumsiness and bad eyesight, the former possibly being because of the latter. He tends to clean up everything around him, and while not quite a germophobe, but possibly a tad OCD, his room is always sparkling clean and he scolds those who make a mess. Despite this, he is very intelligent and a skilled duelist, but is never one to brag or belittle one of lesser skill. While normally timid and quiet, for some reason, in a duel his nervousness disappears and he never stutters during, becoming confident and outspoken. Giving up hope never occurs to him and he always duels to his full potential. No matter the outcome, Hiro is content, and reverts back to his nervous self the second the Life Points hit 0. When it comes to other people, Hiro is very friendly, even to those who don't particularly like him. He never resorts to violence, even if physical force is used against him. He's also very protective, and if a friend of his is being bullied, he doesn't hesitate to step in. [b]Appearance:[/b] - Height: 5'2" - Weight: 110 - Body Shape: Slim - Hair Color & Style: Straight black hair, shoulder length and parted in the middle. - Eye Color: Green. - Clothing: Hiro usually wears dark blue jeans with cargo pockets, and some t-shirt. However, he almost always wears a black pull over hoodie over it. His glasses are silver, half rimmed, and have a small crack on the right lense. His shoes are always tennis shoes. [b]Bio:[/b] Hiro's life was pretty normal for the school punching bag. He was small and not very outgoing as he grew up, and thus was the target of bullies at school since elementary. No one ever stood up for him or even hanged out with him except his one friend. At the time, Hiro couldn't duel himself, but his friend always showed him his cards and let him watch his duels, and they would talk about duel monsters for hours a day. However, one day, on the walk to school, a car screeched off the road and came right at them. His friend pushed Hiro out of the way, getting hit by the car himself. He died in Hiro's arms, leaving him his deck with his final words, with his favorite card, the Raging Flame Sprite. After that Hiro stayed quiet at school, and the bullies, along with everyone else, left him alone. He promised himself after that day he would become a skilled duelist, in remembrance of his friend. He studied book after book, and dueled anyone who was willing. He never lost spirit if he lost, and was intent on becoming better. When he had become what a duelist that he hoped would make his friend proud, he asked to be enrolled in Duel Academy, and his parents agreed without a thought. --- [b]Deck:[/b] Hiro's deck features around the card [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Raging_Flame_Sprite]Raging Flame Sprite[/url] (he has 3). His strategies include powering them up as quickly as possible with cards like [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Twin_Swords_of_Flashing_Light_-_Tryce]Twin Swords of Flashing Light - Tryce[/url], or using stalling tactics with cards like [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Swords_of_Revealing_Light]Swords of Revealing Light[/url] so as not to be as pressed for time. However, he isn't entirely reliant on them and his deck also constsists of a combination of [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Volcanic]Volcanic[/url] and [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Flamvell]Flamvell[/url] cards.

Sweetie Belle Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 [quote name='Luxray' timestamp='1303844844' post='5169922'] @Psychic Almighty: First, Nova Sands, really? Why would he have such a name? You give no indictation for the reason he would have such an outrageous name, and if he did have that name, wouldn't he be teased by his friends about it? [/quote] I have a friend whose name is Freeze. It really is; it's on his driver's license! And no one ever makes fun of it. I personally think it's pretty cool. And if we did make fun of it, he'd kick our @ss. [s]By the way, my app is almost done. Firefox decided to die on me, so it deleted my app when it was almost done.[/s] I just realize that all my Bio's for RP's tend to involve someone dying... =\ [spoiler=ElectricKirby - (Family Name First) ę°øåÆć»ē č± ļ¼ćććććć»ćøćććļ¼ćEishin Heika] [b]Username:[/b] ElectricKirby --- [b]Player Name:[/b] [size="1"](Family Name First)[/size] ę°øåÆć»ē č± ļ¼ćććććć»ćøćććļ¼ćEishin Heika [b]Age:[/b] 14 [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Date of Birth:[/b] ļ¼ęļ¼ę„ćļ¼ćApril 7th [b]Personality:[/b] The fact that she doesn't have usable legs, and is confined to a wheelchair, made her sensitive to most problems, and most importantly, human mortality. She doesn't tolerate jokes about things like racism or death, and will hurt anyone who jokes about paraplegia. Most commonly, she runs them down with her wheelchair. Despite this, she does like a good joke every now and then. Some good, clean humor is what makes Heika laugh. Despite her disability, she seems to be the main target for male affection. Flowers are often sent to her dorm from nameless guys on the campus, and her email inbox is flooded with mail. She knows how to shoot down an admirer without him even realizing he's been rejected. She also likes to toy with men, although she really doesn't know what she's doing. She got one boy to buy her a gold necklace, which she later sold. [b]Appearance:[/b] Heika is tragically confined to a wheelchair. Not using her legs caused the muscle to deteriorate, and made them thin and fragile. However, her upper body doubled in strength, as she originally had a manual wheelchair. Her wheelchair now, which is electronic, has a Duel Disk attached to it, and pulls up and out, like food trays in an airplane. Her pale skin matches her her blue hair, but she often wears foundation, making her facial tone darker and less pale. - Height: 5'01" - Weight: 91 lbs. - Body Shape: Her legs are skinny, from her disability. Her upper body, however, is five years older than she is. - Hair Color & Style: Light Blue, tied into a ponytail that reaches halfway down her neck. - Eye Color: Blue - Clothing: Heika has a habit for the color blue. She wears jeans quite often, when she isn't in school uniform. She changes the ribbon that keeps her hair in a ponytail so often, that one may think it changes itself. [b]Bio:[/b] Heika was always an athletic girl. She loved to run, but her favorite pastime was riding her D-wheel in the wind. She drove it anywhere she could find, often getting into trouble with prefects. Her riding life was ended quickly when she crashed with another runner. Her runner was based mostly on leg mobility, and so when her legs were rendered unusable by the crash, she went into a prolonged state of depression. She would practice self-mutilation at times, and seriously considered suicide. However, her parents built an attachment to her wheelchair that allowed it to function like a normal D-Wheel. Immediately after receiving it, she immediately went to test it out. She went to racing courses, and beat many best times. Riding was her passion, but so was charity. 75% of her prize money went to an charities, and the rest went to supporting her family. She very rarely kept money for herself. After one of her races, a recruiter from Central Academy met up with Heika. He said that he knew about her charitable side, and that he was prepared to offer her a full scholarship to Central Academy, provided she become captain of the racing team. She gratefully accepted, and ran home to tell her parents. Unfortunately, a sore loser from one of Heika's previous races, ransacked the house. During the robbery, Heika's father was shot twice. As paramedics took him to the hospital, he wished her luck at Central Academy, and told her, "[i]I always wanted to go there, but my family couldn't afford to..."[/i]. She rode in the ambulance. She stayed in the hospital with her father for three days, but his wounds were too great. He died in the ICU a little before midnight on the third day. She decided to head to Central Academy to live out her father's dream. --- [b]Deck:[/b] Terminal Garden is based off of locking the opponent's Main Phases through a combination of [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Timeater"]Timeater[/url] and [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Terminal_World"]Terminal World[/url]. Terminal World, while active, keeps either player from conducting a Main Phase 2, while Timeater prevents the opponent's Main Phase 1 when it destroys something by battle. Since Timeater only has 1900 ATK, [url="http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Black_Garden"]Black Garden[/url] is often used to give Timeater something to run over. In the case that the opponent is able to summon, cards like Neo-Spacian Grand Mole are used to get rid of anything particularly nasty. [b]Schedule:[/b] [b]Example Post:[/b] Heika wheeled around the empty hallways. She was allowed to leave class early, so she could get to her next class safely, without someone being run down. She made her way to her next class was. The door opened, revealing a large room. However, each row of desks (which actually was one long table, like the ones in college rooms that I have no idea what they're called) was separated by two steps, which she couldn't traverse. The door itself had steps in front of it as well, making it pretty much impossible for her to enter the classroom. "Hey, can someone help me out, here? Whatever idiot designed this room obviously has no regard for invalids like me." One boy decided to let out a smart remark. "Who would," he said under his breath. Unfortunately, Heika heard him, and she knew who said it. With a quick reflex, she pulled a textbook out of her bag, and threw it at the offender with as much force as she could. It hit him in the face, knocking him out of the chair, and into the person next to him. His nose was broken in two places, and his skull was fractured. However, her reputation preceded her, and no charges were pressed. The boy did curse her out, however, and he was taken to the nurse. "Here, I'll help you," said a tall boy nearby. He picked her up and carried her. "Where do you want to sit?" Heika, blushing, replied, "Oh... the front aisle seat..." She was embarrassed by the boy, but more embarrassed by the fact she liked him. Even more, when she got to her seat, the girl next to her told her that her feelings were obvious. [/spoiler] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quiksilver Posted April 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 @Democar: Alright, it's fine, don't worry. [b]Accepted[/b]. @Master Red: Do you think you could go a bit more in-depth about Gabrielle? Right now, she seems a bit one-dimensional- the dim yet happy girl. Give her a bit more complexity, y'know? Other than that, you're good. I presume you wish to go into Slifer as well, is it? @.Logic: Reserved, of course you may do so. Just give me a heads-up when you do post it. @Psychic Almighty: A bit better this time, just proofread it and fix the grammar and spelling, and you'll scrap by. I'd appreciate if you added a bit more to the app, but right now, if you check the grammar and spelling, you'll be accepted. One more for Red, eh? @Shradow: A nerd who is social?! What nonsense is this? I'm kidding, it was a good app, if a bit scant. That's okay though, as there is a lot of stuff in there that I can draw from. Ah, time to test my characters' minds...obviously [b]Accepted.[/b] @ElectricKirby: You're joking. Do you have a nickname for him or just call him Freeze? EDIT: How sad, but once again, a very good app. Methinks I have one of the Sacred Cards heal her legs?...Ah, pondering for the future. I presume she's from China, due to the name? [b]Accepted[/b].
