Yu-Gi-Oh! The Five Dragons [5D's Remake RP|Started|Accepting|PG-13|OOC|NO MORE SIGNERS OR DARK SIGNERS!]

[Premier Alexander Romanov]

Have the people whose apps have been accepted been added to the opening yet?

I am working on it as we speak.
And I think we have enough Dark Signers other than the reserves and the in-progress apps.
Anyone wanna make some PSMB people, Earthbound Cultists, or just some Pro Duelists?

[Kingdom Xathers]

Think I'll try my hand at a Pro Duelist, as well as a "Miscellaneous" character:

 

[spoiler=Gabriel Guerra]

"All lives have value: Satellite, Psionic... even the very Monsters that fight for us on a daily basis.  The trick is getting to know them."

 

Name: Gabriel Guerra
Age: 31
Gender: Male
Allegiance: None
Faction: Pro Duelist
[spoiler=Appearance:][/spoiler]
Personality: Gabriel is usually more reserved outside of dueling and wrestling, usually calm and quiet, keeping to himself (mostly to keep a low profile when out in public), but is by no means a "wall flower". When interacting with people in the general public, he may seem a bit distant at first, but given time as he warms up to you, he can be one of the most talkative people you could meet. Of course, he is highly protective of his mask and face, refusing to allow anyone to see him mask-less outside of close friends and family. While wrestling (he's a face, by the way), he is more charismatic and jovial. While dueling, he's also high-spirited, but tactical as well, and not as over-the-top as his personality in the ring. Also cares a lot about children. Gabriel is devoted to family and friends, and will stick his neck out for them more often than not.  He has little tolerance for bigotry and other forms of discrimination.

Biography: For those who may have known of Gabriel Guerra in another dimension, it may be fair to warn those individuals: This is NOT the Gabriel Guerra they've met before.  Not to say that this Gabriel is any different from any other Gabriel Guerra one has met in another dimension; their personalities are rather consistent... but we digress.

 

Orphaned as a result of the Zero Reverse, Gabriel spent the majority of his teenage years as part of a street gang in the Satellite, doing what he could just to survive to the next day.  One day, during a Speed Duel between his group and a unit from Sector Secur--er, Public Security Maintenance Bureau, the then-14-year-old Gabriel was used as a scapegoat, betrayed by his fellow "brothers" and taking a tumble, receiving a scarring injury to the right side of his face  Gabriel was taken into custody, whereas the rest of the gang made a run for it in the confusion. 

 

Gabriel was soon afterward taken to a hospital in Neo Domino City to have his wounds treated, and was also spared from being branded with a Criminal Mark, perhaps because the injury to his face was punishment enough.  It was during his time at the hospital that Gabriel met another teenager, Russell Oxford, who was at the hospital visiting a relative.  The two boys quickly bonded, with Russell coming over to visit on his own long after his relative was released from the hospital.  On the last day of Gabriel's stay at the hospital, Russell gave him his contact information, hoping that the two could meet up again in the future.  Gabriel was sent to live the rest of his teenage years in foster care.

 

In the years that followed, Gabriel would seek to make one of his childhood dreams come true: becoming a luchador.  At the age of 26, Gabriel would don his soon-to-be iconic mask, going by the name "Aslan"; he auditioned for a spot on DWF (Duelist Wrestling Federation) and, after a grueling year of training, was accepted, and quickly became one of their top competitors, even catching the eye of the Pro Dueling League.  It was also here that Gabriel would once more cross paths with Russell Oxford, starting their friendship anew.

Deck Type: "Masked Bravadors" (a lucha libre-themed Deck that also shares some "Mask" support.  Their gimmick is similar to Vylons and Inzektors in that the individual members of the Archetype can be equipped to other monsters, passing on special effects in the process).
Ace/Favorite Cards: "Masked Bravador - Leon", "Masked Bravador - Rubedo Leo"

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=William Hartford (WIP)]

"Luisa, I made a promise to your mother.... I will always do what I can to keep you safe."

 

Name: William Hartford (... is actually the mortal form of "Elemental HERO Wildheart")
Age: Physically in his mid 30s
Gender: Male
Allegiance: None
Faction: PSMB
Appearance: William stands at an impressive height of 7-feet-5-inches, with a thick, heavily-muscled frame possessing bronze skin.  His black/dark brown hair reaches down to his mid-back and is tied back into a ponytail.  He has tribal-style tattoos covering the length of his right arm and right pectoral. He has a four-inch scar from a through-and-through puncture wound, visible on the center of his chest and his back. Clothing-wise, William prefers simple clothing that doesn't interfere with whatever task he is performing; by default, he wears simple tank tops and t-shirts, jeans or sweatpants, and work boots. He may also wear Native American or Samoan accessories.

Personality: William possesses a great sense of justice, willing to protect any in need even at the cost of severe injury (and especially while injured).  Intelligent despite his large frame, and gentle/careful when he needs to be.  Humorous or otherwise random occurrences tend to catch him off-guard, but is used to seeing the occasional clumsiness of others, having dealt with his ditzy adopted daughter, Luisa, on a daily basis.

Biography: When William arrived at Neo Domino City roughly 10 years ago, he was almost immediately involved in the extraction and rescue of a mother and her 8-year-old daughter from the wreckage of a car crash.  The mother died at the hospital, but in her final moments she requested that William adopt her daughter Luisa, even going so far as to call him Luisa's guardian angel....

 

William adapted rather well to the parenting life, taking care of Luisa while performing various odd jobs to support them, such as working as a substitute gym teacher, or, more recently, as the assistant and secretary to Miss Hettie Tendo, as well as being a part-time social worker.

Deck Type: Wildheart Deck (focuses on "Elemental HERO Wildheart" and his various Fusions.  It also utilizes an "advanced form" known as "Elemental HERO Wildheart Ω").  His adopted daughter, Luisa, also uses this same Deck.
Ace/Favorite Cards: Elemental HERO Wildheart Ω

[Admiral_Stalfos19]

Anyone wanna make some PSMB people, Earthbound Cultists, or just some Pro Duelists?

 

 

Actually, about the cultists... Do you mind if Tetsuya actually isn't one? I don't see him wanting to join the cult, and the only real reason why Tetsuya would attend the meeting would probably be just to make sure neither Makoto nor their parents became Dark Signers as well as him.

[Premier Alexander Romanov]

Alright.
Do you want Tetsuya to be a Potential, then?
Cultists are those brainwashed by Talia and the other active Dark Signers. Think Dick Pitt and Tetsu from the anime.

[Admiral_Stalfos19]

No, it'll only be more complicated that way. Dharc and I are already trying to sort out how the two apps will work together, and changing Tetsuya from an active DS will only throw a monkey wrench into the discussion.

[Premier Alexander Romanov]

Got it.
I guess he could be like Misty, and be in disguise.
BTW, we'll need at least 1 Active Signer to be in that state.
Let's call him/her/them Sleeper(s).

[Bringerofcake]

So, with Scrap Dragon being a Signer Dragon (YESSSSS) how do you want to handle its two and three headed forms?Should they just exist? Should I rewrite them to become more powerful/more exaggerated or flashy versions?

[Premier Alexander Romanov]

So, with Scrap Dragon being a Signer Dragon (YESSSSS) how do you want to handle its two and three headed forms?Should they just exist? Should I rewrite them to become more powerful/more exaggerated or flashy versions?

I was thinking on using a similar upgrade system for the Signer Dragons.

Each Signer Dragon has a +1 Level and a +2 Level upgrade.

[Phantom Roxas]

Okay, I think that does it for my App on Page 2.  Anyone wanna give it a once over?
 
Also, I'm still fine-tuning my "Halloween" cards, so I may add for to Sam's "favorite/key cards" area.

Since you and I were discussing your character over PM, I'll say that I like how Sam turned out.

And here's my second app.

[spoiler=Alice Malory]"Yes, I'm psychic, but why does that matter? You and me, we're both human. I don't understand why everyone seems to think we're all so horrible. I know Naoya thinks you're the real monsters, but we can change that, can't we? Come on, let's team up."
Name: Alice Malory
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Allegiance: None
Faction: Arcadia Movement
[spoiler=Appearance][/spoiler]Personality: Alice believes that the Arcadia Movement are true heroes and seeks for equality among mankind. She is a caring individual, and would serve to negotiate an alliance between the Signers and the Arcadia Movement. Her admiration of Naoya borders on a romantic attraction, even though she's a bit too young for him and there's a noticeable age gap between them. She keeps her feelings hidden, waiting until she's older before she can confess to him.
[spoiler=Biography]At the age of five, Alice found herself lost in Satellite, with only vague memories of her life before then. She knew her name, and she remembered her parents, but the last thing she could recall before ending up in Satellite was the hand of a giant, pitch-black monster reaching out for her. Alice looked around for her parents, but was discovered by other youths around her age. She was taken into an orphanage, where she learned more about society. Still, everything seemed off to her, but Alice could never figure out just what. Alice was told that an event known as the Zero Reverse must have killed her family, but no one seemed to understand what the monster had to do with it.

Alice stayed with the orphanage for a long time, but she was haunted by the knowledge that she never had the chance to say goodbye to her parents. Eventually, when the orphanage received some starter cards from the Duel Monsters trading card game, Alice played with a few of them, but soon it was revealed that she too had psychic powers, as she summoned a monster that scarred another child at the orphanage. The people in charge of the orphanage knew about the discrimination regarding psionics, but they kept Alice at the orphanage, provided that she could keep her powers in check.

However, one day, when Alice was twelve, a young man appeared to the orphanage, asking if there were any people there with psychic powers. The orphanage was fiercely defensive, forbidding the man from seeing any of the children, and especially forbidding Alice from revealing her powers. In spite of this, the man seemed satisfied with his visit, leaving without another word. After that, Alice though of the man, waiting for the day where she could meet with him. The orphanage knew this, and tried to make her stop such thoughts, but Alice would never listen. Alice tried many times to sneak out of the orphanage, but she would constantly be caught and punished. Resenting their harsh treatment of her, Alice grew convinced that she needed to use her psychic powers.

One night, when she woke up, all the people who were asleep seemed even more at ease than usual, so she carefully made her way to the door, which was suspiciously unlocked. It was raining, and standing outside was Naoya Okudaira, holding an umbrella in one hand, and a Duel Disk in the other. Monsters stood around him, making Alice remember the last day she spent with her parents. Naoya reassured her that if she followed him, she'd be able to control such monsters. Naoya said he arranged for someone to formally adopt Alice from the orphanage, and that they would arrive the following day. Alice smiled, happy that someone could understand her, and Alice returned to bed, waiting in anticipation for the next day.

As promised, she was adopted the following day, although she felt sad to say goodbye to the people she had grown up with for most of her life. After many tearful farewells, Alice left for Neo Domino City, where she was inducted into the Arcadia Movement. Naoya warned her that people would view her as example of the Arcadia Movement corrupting children, but Alice didn't mind. She found people who accepted her for who she was, and she was hopeful that other people would be accepting of psionics. As such, to counter the claims of people believing in the corruption of the Arcadia Movement, she chose Elemental HERO Absolute Zero as her ace monster, hoping that the image of her monster would prove that the Arcadia Movement fought for justice.[/spoiler]Deck Type: Alice uses an altered Gishki deck to overwhelm opponent by decimating her opponent's deck, and allowing her to swarm them by summoning additional monsters.
Ace/Favorite Cards: Elemental HERO Absolute Zero, Evigishki Mind Augus, and Gishki Ariel.[/spoiler]

[Hälō]

[spoiler=Belphor Strider]

“Com’on Mr.Hero, I know you can do better then that! If you don’t win soon, what do ya think will happen to all your friends?”
 
Name: Belphor Strider
Age:  19
Gender: Male
Allegiance: Dark Signer - Giant (Potentail)
Faction: Pro duelist/ Earthbound Cult
Appearance: [spoiler Appearance]  [/spoiler]
 

Personality: Before death, Belphor was a fun loving, and laid back individual. Working as a member of his brother’s pit crew, he spent the majority of his time watching pro matches, and learning about duel runners. When he finally  became a pro duelist, Belphor’s personality took an argent turn. Extremely confident his abilities, he will often accept any challenge, no matter how tough the opponent. Though he enjoys screwing with the competition, Belphor is extremely respectful to his fan's, by which he is adored.  

 

After becoming a dark signer, Belphor has still kept a lot of his relaxed attitude, but now finds an odd satisfaction in watching others fall into despair, or being put into dire situations. Seemingly always in a good mood Belphor tends to use a combination of mocking politeness, and sarcasm to taunt both friends, and foe alike. That along with him being extremely perceptive when it comes to human nature, makes him an expert at getting in his target’s head, and playing mind games. 

 

Biography: Belphor was born into a middle class family that seemed to be cut right from a magazine cover; complete with a stay at home mom, Dad who was always working, and a brother that seemed to be better at everything. He spent his free time in his family’s garage, tampering with duel runner parts, while his older brother went on the road to become a pro duelist. Though he didn't realize it back then, Belphor found the whole situation unbelievable boring, and longed for something interesting to happen.

 

Belphor’s hopes for change were finally answered at the age of fifteen, when his elder brother managed to make it into the pro league, as the 12th ranking duelist. Extremely proud of his brothers accomplishment, young Belphor begged to be apart of his team. After whole year of working in the pro league, his knowledge of both duel monsters, and racing were exponential, and his brother's team had managed to move all the way to 6th in rank.  When the season had ended, Belphor's family held a lavish party to celebrate the success of their son's. It was that same night, there was gas leak in leak in the Strider family home, that caused a massive explosion, killing everyone inside. On the doorstep of death, Belphor came to the conclusion that he had wasted his life living in the shadow of his brother, and that he could have done so much more. The Earthbound immortals responded to his desperate will to live, but before they could create a new dark signer, Belphor was miraculously saved by the paramedics.

 

The only survivor of the explosion, Belphor was left confused, and without purpose. The power of the Immortals still lingered within him, trapped, and waiting to be released in his moment of death. Unbeknownst to Belphor this power soon became the drive that pushed him to join the duelist league, and before long he claimed his spot as 6^th ranking duelist.   

 

Deck Type:  Currently, Belphor uses an Evil hero deck, that’s main focus is swarming the field with powerful fusion monsters.

 

As a dark signer, Belphor uses a Fiend/Archfiend deck, that focuses on destroying his opponent’s defenses, before beating them down. He doesn't make use of the Chess based monsters, but instead uses a number of other fiend/dark support cards.

[宇佐見 蓮子@C94]

[spoiler=Dark Signer - Hummingbird]

"Yes! Come on! Fulfill your selfish desire for hope! Hope is naught! Hope is but a lie, lie, lie, lie, LIE!" 

Name: Fuuka Kokoro 

Age: 18

Gender: F
Allegiance: Dark Signer (Hummingbird) Potential
Faction: Neo Domino 
Appearance: 

[spoiler=pic]

OOC: Rare picture of her smiling. She won't do that often, I feel./spoiler]

Personality: As a result of her murky past, Fuuka's personality had been rendered twisted and distorted. She has a nihilist view on the world, thinking that hope doesn't exist, and that it's just a lie made by people to console themselves. This would be fine, if it weren't for her tendency of forcing this belief down other people's throats. She has a weird fixation on destroying other people's hope, either through duels or 'other methods'. But, she still knows her limits and doesn't go around crushing people's dreams, at least for now. 

 

She is also prone to jealousy fits and despises happy couples, since her only attempt at a relationship ended in bloodshed. Fuuka is also a sadist and enjoys seeing her opponents suffer in duels. She can only maintain her calm and collected self for a few hours and even the slightest bit of wrong touch can cause her to snap.

 

Biography: Fuuka was born to a wealthy, high-class family in Neo Domino city and had a normal childhood, for the most part. Her father and mother are both workaholics and heavy drinkers, leaving her to be mostly in the care of her uncle. Her uncle, who was a pretty respectable duelist at the time, taught her how to duel and would often take her for a ride in his Duel Runner. To her, her uncle was like a role model. She aspired to be a professional duelist and be the first female to win a Riding Duel championship. Life seemed fine for her, but things were about to take a turn for the worse. 

 

Shortly after her 11th birthday, her mother fell sick from a liver complication. No matter how much money were put into keeping her alive, she passed away. This incident started to change Fuuka's view on life, as well as forcing her uncle to work even harder to help Fuuka's dad to support her. One thing led to another, and her uncle also passed away after a high speed Riding Duel. Her only figure of hope is now gone, and Fuuka found herself alone for the first time. "If we are going to die anyway, why is it that people work so hard, clinging on to a single thread of hope?" That was a questioned she asked to herself, and often to her uncle's grave time and time again. 

 

2 years later, she found a new hope: One of her classmates in Duel Academy. The short time spent with him felt so sweet to Fuuka, and she was almost prepared to throw away her past and propose to him. Of course, that didn't go well either. Turns out that he was only dating Fuuka under orders of the school principal as some sort of counseling program, and that he already had a girlfriend. Naturally, she didn't take the news well. One night, she couldn't control her anger anymore and snapped. She took a kitchen knife, went to her 'boyfriend's house and murdered him with a dark grin on her face.

 

Since then, she reverted back to her old, nihilist self, but with a new found tendency for destruction. She acts as a sweet, and for the most part, normal girl in Duel Academy. However, her true self starts to show in duels and when people start to talk about hope and dreams. 

Deck Type: Ragion Turbo. A highly unstable deck which focuses on drawing multiple cards through Ragin's effect, before ultimately sending them back to the grave to extend the combo even further. Represents Fuuka's distorted view of hope and tendency for wanton destruction. 
Ace/Favorite Cards: Demon Roar God Ragion, Infernity Gun, Demon Roar God Beast Chawa, Demon Roar God Kushano, Earthbound God Asslla Piscu(not yet acquired, obv)

Started out making a rule 63 Kiryu, ended up with an Ax-Crazy Psycho Bitch. 

Anyway, I can flesh out the personality a bit more, if so needed.

 

[Phantom Roxas]

And now for my final character.

[spoiler=Solasiro]"The script does not say that you survive this battle. Allow me to be the one who conducts your requiem."
Name: Solasiro Antologia
Age: 32
Gender: Male
Allegiance: Dark Signer - Dog
Faction: Satellite
[spoiler=Appearance][/spoiler]Personality: Solasiro believes that "all the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players." However, he views himself as the director, and as such is very over the top in nature. Believing everything to have been pre-ordained by fate, Solasiro strives to ensure what he is certain is meant to happen. It can be difficult to read his emotions, as though he may remark what a pity it is when he has to kill an enemy, in truth, he thrills killing people. While he is aware that Talia is the leader of the Dark Signers, Solasiro is biding himself, seeking an opportunity for when it would be appropriate to usurp her control.
[spoiler=Biography] Solasiro was a member of the Public Security Maintenance Bureau, although rather than taking criminals to the Facility, he would often dump them into Satellite, thinking that it would be a waste of money to keep the prisoners in what relatively decent conditions would be allowed. At first, he was able to get away with this, but soon his exploits were discovered. As punishment, he was sent to the Facility, the one place he liked to avoid. What little humanity was shown by the officers there disgusted Solasiro, and so he refused to eat his food, hoping to starve himself. The warden, familiar with Solasiro, held Solasiro down and forced him to eat his food. After that, Solasiro began to respect the warden, but warned him that if a riot were to ever ensue, Solasiro would make sure to kill him.

Solasiro's threat earned him a place in solitary confinement for a month, but Solasiro's body would not fail him. When he was returned to his cell, he waited, hoping that Hell would soon take him. Remarkably, it seemed like someone had answered him, as when Solasiro woke up, he found himself with a blank card. He kept it hidden, but not for very long. The warden challenged Solasiro to a duel, and supplied Solasiro with a deck, but there was another condition to the duel. Electric manacles to attached to both Solasiro and the warden, with Solasiro having a high enough voltage where, if he lost, he would die, but if he won, he'd be allowed to apply for parole. Alas, the duel was rigged, as Solasiro was given an incomprehensible deck rife with incompatible cards, and the duel quickly ended with Solasiro's defeat, and the electrical shock ended Solasiro's life. He had received the death penalty, although the warden would have him reported as being shot by an officer in self defense.

It was then that the officer was trapped. As officers approached him to free him from the shackles, violet flames began to surround him, incinerating the approaching guards, but keeping the warden within the ring of fire. Solasiro, having made a pact with the King of the Netherworld, was resurrected where he was lying, now reborn as a Dark Signer. He challenged the warden to another duel, this time with a more coherent deck, based on the Crystal Beasts. This duel was more drawn out, and on the final turn of the duel, Solasiro summoned his Earthbound God, Ccoshobar, and upon its summoning, the souls of all the people within the Facility were absorbed, save for Solasiro and the warden. However, within the same turn of the summoning, Solasiro won the duel with a direct attack, laughing as Ccoshobar devoured the warden. With no one around to stop him, Solasiro immediately left the Facility, and met up with the rest of the Dark Signers.
Ace/Favorite Cards: Earthbound God Ccoshobar, Ancient City - Rainbow Ruins[/spoiler][/spoiler]

[Admiral_Stalfos19]

After some thinking, and wondering how to make this balanced, I've finally decided to try and make an evo for Ice Heart Dragon. Here it is, in written form:

 

[spoiler=Majestic Ice Dragon]Dragon-type/WATER/Level 10/3900 ATK/3400 DEF

"Majestic Dragon" + "Ice Heart Dragon" + 1 other non-Tuner monster

When this card is Synchro Summoned: You can discard 1 card to target 1 Normal or Quick-Play Spell Card in your Graveyard; add it to your hand, but banish it instead of sending it to the Graveyard after its effect is activated and resolves. During your Main Phase 1: You can place 1 Ice Counter on each card your opponent controls. If you do: This card can attack your opponent's Life Points directly during that turn's Battle Phase. In addition, until the End Phase of your opponent's turn: The effects of all face-up cards that have had Ice Counters placed on them by this effect are negated, and your opponent cannot activate or Flip Summon Set cards with Ice Counters on them. During the End Phase: Return this card from the field to the Extra Deck; Special Summon 1 "Ice Heart Dragon" from your Graveyard.[/spoiler]

 

Hopefully it's not OP'ed, but I have my doubts. Although I could remove the Set card stunning effect and take away a lot of power if it needs to be done :/

[The Warden]

Okay, this should be sufficient.
 
[spoiler=Kirkmond Troy]
“Try as we might to think otherwise, humans would be nothing without progress. The future IS progress, and the longer we lament on the past the more we lose sight of our progress. The past is the venom that poisons the future, and the Arcadia Movement will be the one to remove that venom.”

Name: Kirkmond Troy

Age: 39

Gender: Male

Allegiance: Dark Signer - Snake (Potential)

Faction: Arcadia Movement

Appearance: Kirkmond is 5”9 with a trim build. His hair is kept short but slightly wavy, and is toned light brown with slight gray patches. His gray eyes are hidden behind a pair of reflective rectangular glasses. He has no other defining features aside from a little bit of stubble on his chin and a small cross-shaped earring on his left ear.

He constantly wears his lab coat, which is always buttoned up by the top two buttons, but the remainder of it is left open and swishing. Underneath his coat he wears a simple brown vest, buttoned up and with hanker chief folded in the top left pocket. His white button up shirt is always done up and tucked into his black pants, though the ends of his sleeves are always pinned together with cuff links. He wears a simple black tie which is tucked neatly under his vest.

His black pants are ironed every morning, and always have a perfect crease along the sides. Like his pants, his black shoes are also always polished every morning, and can always capture the light. They’re so shiny you can see your face in them.

Personality: Kirkmond is a scientist, and the most important thing to him is progress. Progress of humanity, and progress of his research into Venom. Everything else is purely an after thought; especially the Signers. He deems them an eyesore as well as another drop of venom to be removed from humanity. As for the Movement, he adores them. The Psionics are the way of the future, the way of progress. They are the shining stars in the dark sky of humanity. In case it was not richly apparant, he would do anything and everything for the advancement of the Movement.

 

He has a special kind of malice for the hopeless fools who always lament upon their past. What good is looking back? All it does it make you trip as you walk forward. Always look forward with your head held high, for there is nothing of importance behind you. Nothing. At. All.

Biography: Roughly a decade ago, Kirkmond was a scientist who had immigrated from England to a shady Chemical Research Lab in Neo Domino City in order to study venoms to be used as 'medications', though he knew full well that they would be used as drugs. He was in charge on researching into the effects of animal venoms and their reactions on humans… the venoms were distilled of course, except for that one incident; but that was the assistant’s fault. He made many advancements in chemical study, and was the only man brave enough to milk the venom of the most dangerous animals on the planet. Through his research Kirkmond came across an extract from the venom of what was perhaps the most common species of snakes. This extract was a part of the neurotoxin that normally killed people; but, when distilled and purified, it could be used as a potent mental stimulant.

Jump four years later, and Kirkmond was still working on his commonly dubbed Venom. It was at that point that he learned of the Arcadia Movement, and their goals. It was only through whispers, but it was enough for Kirkmond to know that this was the next step of human evolution. In the dead of night he found and approached the soon-to-be leader of the Arcadia Movement, Naoya Okudaira. The young man was silver tongued, and Kirkmond eagerly offered his Venom to the Movement. Aas it turned out, Venom became an incredibly powerful tool to the Movement, allowing enhanced use of their powers at the cost of several hours of sickness afterwards.

Jump cut to now, and we have Kirkmond as the lead Movement’s Research group and the only non-psionic of the Movement. And he is so very close to completing Venom, so very close indeed…

Deck Type: Venom - A deck type based on placing Venom Counters in order to destroy the opponent’s monsters with Venom Swamp.

Oh yeah, future Dark Signers are supposed to potentials right now. Okay, amended Solasiro's backstory.

[Mugendramon]

I have a suggestion and it's probably for best that you hear me out:
 
There will be Duels. Duels, if they are played post by post, will be immensely awkward and slow. They'll make people lose interest at hilarious speeds.
 
So you should find some- ANY program, that allows duels to be played out. So that they can be written and posted in just one post rather than dragged along for pages. It makes things a lot smoother.
 
That said...
 
[spoiler="Alfred Garrison"]
"Seriously, what Scheißdreck. This will be the last game."
Name: Freud Garrison
Age: 49
Gender: Male
Allegiance: None
Faction: Foreigner (Arcadia Movement)
[spoiler=Appearance:][/spoiler]Personality: Freud is most, utterly fucking tired of children's card games. Just look  at him. He's a well-educated man, living a slightly above-average life in a respectable place, and his position in life is now to be decided by Scheiß-karten? No thank you.  He despises anything and anyone related to these games, and Pro Dueling is no more than a glorified staring contest. When things need to get done, bullets need to get flying. And he knows that. Even so, a businessman cannot be running his tongue or telling more than he's saying. So he plays his obfuscating stupidity pretty straight, and even learned his card games to the point of not needing to draw his gun all that often, in public.

Biography: Freud was born to a cold family. Parents too business-minded to worry about a long-term asset that was currently a liability, left his upbringing to their elder son. He did a good job at it, too. Having been treated the same way, Freud's brother made sure  his sibling got a proper, attentive upbringing. And when he wasn't busy with his own education, or, as Freud later understood, doing his girlfriend in his room, teaching him and playing card games. Duel Monsters was a novelty back then- it marveled Freud, it was fun, interesting, and skilled. And so the kid grew into an adult, the game evolving with him.
 
But then one day shit hit the fan. There he was twenty years old, in the living room with his now thirty-six years old, married  brother; playing. Goddamn. Card games. He stood up abruptly and argued. And in his mind a switch was flipped forever: Fuck this game, and fuck the world that embraces it.  He never spoke to his brother again, and he regrets it every moment of his life- for a few years after this incident, his brother had moved into that, THAT place. Neo Domino. And sure enough, there was an explosion there. Big tragedy. Thousands dead. His brother among the ones missing.
 
His brother was killed by card games. And so he would kill those card games himself. He spent nearly fifteen years, growing colder and colder both inside and outside, learning. Training. Becoming a deceitful bastard, perfectly ready to weight the worth of a life against his own personal gain. He became a true machine. And as a cruel irony, he decided; he would use exactly those cards to wreak havoc on this damn city. Through his years of study, he came across a certain organization... one which used... "psionic" powers to trample their opposition. To spread their ideals, and... to wreak havoc as well.
 
And it was so that he set sail for Neo Domino. He would machinate his way to this cult, or whatever it was. And he would use it to finally make this game stop mattering. He would make it disappear, for good.

Deck Type: Karakuri. Harmless wooden toys. Or are they?

Ace/Favorite Cards: Machiners Fortress, Karakuri General Blay, Karakuri Great General Blade, Naturu Beast, Naturu Barkion.

Faction: Earthbound Cult

[spoiler=Appearance][hr][spoiler=Picture][/spoiler][hr]Victor is a tall, bone-thin and sinister-looking man, standing at 6' and only weighing 130 lbs. He has wavy white hair like in the picture and very large and cruel-looking eyes, made further evil-looking by the fact that the whites are black, showing that he is in fact a Dark Signer, and that he wears a very twisted expression on his. His apparel are as is in the picture.
[hr][spoiler="Duel Disk"][/spoiler][/spoiler]
[hr]
[spoiler=Personality]Just by looking at him, one can tell he has more than a few screws loose, Victor is completely crazy and reckless in pursuing his goals, not caring for any consequences of his actions, not caring at all for human life. It is unclear whether his Earthbound Immortal has wormed its way into his brain or he is simply crazy, though he does maintain control and is conscious of what he is doing. Despite being crazy, Victor is very smart and cunning, able to prepare and plan ahead, predicting possible future situations.

 

Victor is very dramatic, often using large gestures while speaking very loudly as if announcing to a large audience or otherwise hissing and croaking out his words with utter spite. He laughs often, in quite the maniacal way and he can have unpredictable mood swings.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Biography]Victor was born as the single child to a very poor couple living in Satellite a great many years ago, but his mother died for an unknown reason when he was six and he ended up growing up with a pathetic single father who would beat him and neglect him greatly, but would then cry and apologize as Victor reminded the man of his wife. Though Victor was often spared from beatings as Victor's father spent all of his free time holed up in his study. Victor later found out when he was twelve that his father was trying to study alchemy, reading from a ancient book that had been passed down the family for unknown generations and his father let it slip one day when he was drunk that he had accidentally sacrificed Victor's mother in an alchemical ritual which apparently failed and only left him with a bunch of children's cards.

 

Victor was enraged. He had very fond memories of his mother when she was alive. In a fit of rage, he took the kitchen knife which he was holding and was using to chop vegetables to make a stew and stabbed his father to death. Victor had already known about card games from the other children living in the slums of Satellite and he took them, as well as the book, intending to make his fortune as a Duelist.

 

He, in fact, succeeded and became a very famous Duelist, almost becoming the King of Games, but then left to South America to study the Nazca Lines, as he had enough money to afford such trips. It appeared that he had been reading from the book, which was apparently called the Codex, and it spoke of legendary monsters sealed within here, the Earthbound Immortals. He succeeded in creating a portal to the Netherworld by kidnapping and sacrificing many people, however, he was sucked in himself and died in the process. He was chosen by the Earthbound Immortal Sach'a and remained in the Netherworld for a long time until he escaped along with the Earthbound Immortals. He was found and taken into a hospital as his body had grown incredibly weak during his time in the Netherworld and only now is he able to move around again.[/spoiler]

Here's my app

 

[spoiler=App]

"Everyone has dreams, no matter how small and obscure they may be. Despite losing my best friend, his spirit will live on and I will use my deck to achieve my dreams of meeting my grandparents in Neo Domino."

Name: Silver Kaiyuja
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Allegiance: Signer (Claw, Potential)
Faction: Satellite
Appearance:

[spoiler=Silver Kaiyuja]

.................Duelist......................................................Duel Disk

[/spoiler]
Personality: Silver is a fun-loving guy who enjoys a good laugh and even though he lost his best friend to a tragic accident involving a duel gang, he misses him, but he doesn't want to show it very often especially to some of the other duel gangs around satellite as he knows that some of those are roughnecks. Despite this, he is still a great guy to hang around with and he often puts his friends' welfare ahead of his own. When Duelling, Silver has been shown to respect his opponents but he would only resort to trash talking should he get provoked, and in recent years he has learned to channel his anger in the cards that he uses and this helps him keep a clear head.
Biography: Silver was born within the satellite sector and has dreams of living in Neo Domino City as his grandparents reside there and he would like to meet them before they die as his parents had told him that his grandparents were nice people. Growing up, Silver was taught that if he had a duelling deck of his own that he would be respected by others living in the satellite. Whilst running an errand for his parents, Silver had found a pile of cards on the ground under some scrap metal, he looked to see if anyone else had noticed them and a couple of minutes later he confirmed that the coast was clear and he walked up to the pile to pick it up, but it turned out that the he was watched by a few boys who were standing around the corner and thought that it was odd that someone would be standing on the spot for a few minutes for no reason, and so they walked up to him to see what Silver had in his hands. Silver turned around to the boys who asked him what he had found and showed them the cards and explained that he was told that having a duelling deck would hopefully earn him some respect around here which caused the boys to get their cards from their pockets and agree with him as the cards that they had on them were also found lying around the place and the possession of said cards gained them some respected from older kids in their district who engaged with trades and duels with the boys. With that in mind, the boys wondered if Silver wanted to become an honourary member of their duelling group in their district to which he said yes and they shared a fistbump, symbolising that they would be friends.

At the age of 12, his parents handed him a deck that has been passed down by his grandparents, an "Eradjinn" deck in which hopes that by using this, he will reach his dreams of going to Neo Domino. A few years later, he and 3 of his friends (Who were the guys he made friends with when he picked up a pile of cards lying around) formed a duel gang and wanted to make a reputation of themselves. During a battle with the Duel Gang "The Hunters", Silver's best friend James chased after the leader up a building that looked unsafe and when they got to the top floor, the leader had made a dangerous jump and urged James to go on depsite pleas from Silver and his other friends down below to not make the jump, however they were jumped by other members of "The Hunters" and the leader threw a hook onto James' duel disk and walked forward, forcing James to jump at which point, the leader let go causing James to fall to his death. Silver and his friends (Kyle and Steve) were deeply saddened by this loss, but they decided to man up as well knowing that James would've wanted them to continue living towards their dreams.
Deck Type: Eradjinn deck. (A deck that centres around destruction)
Ace/Favorite Cards: Enma Dragon - Red Demons, King of Divine Punishment, Black Highlander, Eradjinn Gauntlet-Daemon, Eradjinn Doom-Daemon

Oh f*** I forgot about the quote thingie.

Basically, they saw that he picked up a few cards and after some talking, they became friends.

Well what I meant was that if you can't even elaborate in an APP I think it's going to be even harder to get you to elaborate in-character.

You know what, I have a feeling that this is gonna escalate into an argument. I even took the time to elaborate on this obvious BS just now.

Damned bios/backstories, typing them for characters are the bane of my existence.  @__@

 

 

 

... I'm trying to figure out what kind of job I should give to Wildhea--err, William.

[Ｄｈａｒｃ]

Gotta say, I friggin' love Mugendramon's character. It's like the father of every person on this site. Also, in reference to the dueling suggestion...My only problem is that most of my posting is done via iPhone, which has no Dueling Network-type program. My only access to DN would be at my school, until my laptop is fixed (it's already been over a year since it broke). Not that you had a bad idea, though.
