legendhiro Posted August 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 so, after taking a much longer absence from this site than i ever intended to, i'm back. i wanted to post here that i will be posting the first pole as soon as possible. it will remain for one week, unless i decide to extend it for some still-unforeseen reason. this will act as a preview, so i will only be focusing on pairings between my posted characters and existing Yu-Gi-Oh! characters at the moment.

Brinolovania Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 Screw those, and do Jack vs. Kaiba. But if you insist...Max is the guy who uses the Spirit Reaper deck, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Cakey Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 Could you provide links to the stories that the characters appear in? I have no idea what they're from. And, since I've been posting chapters from my ancient, unfinished story Yu-Gi-Oh! Raging Gods, why the hell not submit one of the characters from it? Yamimaru is basically the original version of a character that has gone through a huge amount of revision and very little change, and who I will definitely put in some story some day, under the name Kira (no relation to legendhiro's Kira...). -Name: Yamimaru -Description: Tall, slender, blond, [s]bishounen[/s]. Wears an Obelisk Blue jacket. -Deck: [spoiler='Relinquished Chaos Deck'] Just a general idea... Relinquished* Dark-Eyes Illusionist* Manju of the Ten Thousand Hands Senju of the Thousand Hands Sonic Bird (?) Djinn Presider of Rituals Djinn Releaser of Rituals Armageddon Knight Chaos Sorcerer Lava Golem (?) Also, possibly as an alternate strategy: Garandolf, King of Destruction Advanced Ritual Art Zoa Ritual Raven Black Illusion Ritual Mystical Space Typhoon Heavy Storm Monster Reborn Allure of Darkness Metamorphosis Foolish Burial Magic Cylinder Draining Shield Call of the Haunted Threatening Roar Mirror Force Extra Deck: Thousand-Eyes Restrict* *These monsters are played with slightly different effects, as follows: Dark-Eyes Illusionist: Once per turn, when a monster your opponent controls attacks, you can negate the attack, and that monster cannot attack while it is face-up on the field. Relinquished: Once per turn, you can equip 1 monster your opponent controls to this card (max. 1). This card's original ATK and DEF become its ATK and DEF. When this card would be destroyed by battle, destroy the equipped monster instead. When this card battles while equipped with a monster and you would take Battle Damage from that battle, inflict that Battle Damage to your opponent instead. Thousand-Eyes Restrict: Identical to Relinquished, plus no other monsters can attack. [/spoiler] -Play Style: Conservative and methodical. Yamimaru is Dangerously Genre Savvy in that he utilizes core concepts of the game - he maintains card advantage, and is well aware of how OP'd Burn is when you're playing with 4000 LP. He does not rely on topdecking. -Mannerisms: Arrogant, but deservedly so. He finds the actions of ordinary people more amusing than anything else. Extremes of emotion, whether anger, sadness, or fear, he finds irritating, because he does not see why people cannot compose themselves. -General: Had I actually finished Raging Gods, he would have beaten her in the tournament finals. Then, at the end of the story, there would be a three-on-one duel against him. He would win again. It's ridiculously self-centered to say "noep my caracter r better den all of urs so he wins", but, idk, keep that in mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote]basic information on the characters is located in the first post. further links can be found in my signature. as for the character, approval is pending, since i want to say i've done the research, but i'd say your chances are pretty good.

IceDorago Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 I'm going with Tucker v Jonouchi. And I forgot, I meant to submit a character from my fic earlier: The deck lists may have some anime/manga only cards, but I'm leaving out the custom ones as I tend to use few of them. -Name: Drake -Description: A tall seventeen year old Japanese male, somewhat athletic. Drake has black hair, usually untidy from being kept under a helmet while D-Wheeling and tends to wear either black or dark red or blue clothing. -Deck: Drake plays a Blackwing deck like his father, supporting them with their own support cards, a few staples, and DARK support cards like Allure of Darkness, using Dark End Dragon as his ace. His strategy usually revolves around swarming with his monsters, and using Vayu in his Graveyard. However, while he has them, he tends to avoid using the Synchro staples. [spoiler=Decklist] Monsters: -Blackwing - Blizzard the Far North x2 -Blackwing - Bora the Spear -Blackwing - Elphin the Raven -Blackwing - Fane the Steel Chain -Blackwing - Gale the Whirlwind -Blackwing - Gust the Backblast -Blackwing - Jin the Rain Shadow -Blackwing - Kalut the Moon Shadow -Blackwing - Mistral the Silver Shield -Blackwing - Sirocco the Dawn -Blackwing - Shura the Blue Flame -Blackwing - Vayu the Emblem of Honor -Blackwing - Zephyros the Elite -Dark Armed Dragon -D.D. Crow -Necro Gardna Extra Deck; -Ally of Justice Catastor -Blackwing Armed Wing x2 -Blackwing Armor Master -Black-Winged Dragon [In deck after Ch. 4] -Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier -Dark End Dragon -Orient Dragon Spell Cards: -Akashic Record -Allure of Darkness -Black Whirlwind -Book of Moon -Burial From a Different Dimension -Foolish Burial -Forbidden Lance -Monster Reborn -Monster Reincarnation -Mystical Space Typhoon -Pot of Avarice -Smashing Ground -Spellbook Inside the Pot Trap Cards: -Bottomless Trap Hole -Mirror Force -Nutrient Z -Shock Draw -Solemn Judgement[/spoiler] -Play Style: Drake doesn't usually go into a duel with a strategy, and just uses whatever is in his hand the best he can. However, after defeating his father, Drake begins to duel more ruthlessly, focusing more on staples like Orient and Brionac, and ignoring his Blackwings, using them and even his favorite monster, Dark End Dragon, only as stepping stones for monsters like those and Dark End. -Mannerisms: Generally a serious person, somewhat fixed on the past. -General: Drake blames his father for the death of his mother and brother, driving him to join an evil organization and even attempt to murder his father.

[/quote]i like it. it will give me an excuse to have pit a pre-synchro era duelist against a synchro user. i might even be able to work time travel in there somewhere. plus, blackwings are kinda awesome.

legendhiro Posted September 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 so it's about that time, kiddies, and we have a tie between Yugi v. John and Jonouchi v. Tucker. and as we all know, we cant have that. so i've re-posted the poll to include only the two finalists. please vote again so that we can move on to the fun part!

legendhiro Posted September 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 so it looks like the winner is tucker vs. jonouchi! i've been thinking about how such a duel would go since it pulled ahead in the poll earlier this week, so you all can expect the actual duel to be posted later this week. also, i've decided that, since we still don't have too many submissions yet, the next duel will just be the runner up, john vs. yugi. thanks all for voting!

legendhiro Posted September 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 [quote name='Lonely Horus' timestamp='1315622567' post='5503661'] I don't understand why the character must be from a fan fiction. [/quote] simply because i need to have enough details to accurately characterize them in any short story that ends up featuring them. if someone were to submit a completely original character, including so many details that their characterization were completely clear, i would probably accept them whether they were from a fanfiction or not.

legendhiro Posted September 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 Further details on the first duel. it will be in two parts, which will not be posted at the same time, and before the duel, we will get to see Tucker and Jonouchi team up in a particularly desperate, non-Duel-Monsters-related situation.

Dr. Cakey Posted October 2, 2011 Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 Hm...it was alright. Two things: 1) Graceful Dice, anime or otherwise, only lasts for one turn. 2) Where did that dice come from?

[/quote] i completely understand that, but as my own fanfiction, the one that tucker comes from, exists in the same continuity as the original anime, i had no excuse not to use them, so i used them. besides, the anime effects for the dice fit perfectly into the vision i had of the duel.
