Yu-Gi-Oh: Domino Elementary [OOC/Accepting/Started]

[0PxPz0]

The monster being all types is the "mechanic". I think it would work better as a type rather than a sub-type because:

 

1) it saves card text space (I wouldn't have to put "this card is always treated as every type", in the card text of every card: especially since there will be a few Normal monsters) and...

2) I'd have to put a type on the card anyway which would be redundant.

 

I guess I can change it to a sub-type, but if I did, there'd be no purpose in making it a type/sub-type at all.

ruing wise wouldn't you have to have it say "This card is treated as every type" though? i can't think of anything that has a mechanic that doesn't have to be included in the card text

I think the only other thing that has an "inherent meaning" in that way are Tuners, but you could apply a similar logic to "Rituals" and every extra deck type.  Maybe the word "mechanic" in my explanation is too strong... "Classification" maybe?  Regardless, how it's formatted shouldn't be super important for the sake of the RP, right?  The above will be how I plan to write it out for my own sake, and hybrid will have the "inherent meaning" of being all types at the same time.  My character will probably explain it a million-and-a-half times in-thread anyway.

as far as tuners they don't have any mechanic text because the mechanic is that synchro's all need at least 1 tuner to summon, as far as some rituals, usually "Normal" ones, and all extra deck monsters now that i'm thinking about it, i guess they do have implied effects (is that the best term for it?) in regards to how they are summoned and it is an RP so it shouldn't be a big deal, my concern was just the ruling towards it not being in the text

[Arkars]

Well, you can simply say at the start of the deck section that even if it's not written down, they are all implied to have in their card text either "(Hybrid monsters are always treated as also being of every other monster type)" or "(This card is always treated as also being of every other monster type)" depending on how you want them to interact with Type-changing cards like Zombie World, much like Summoned Skull is always treated as being an "archfiend" card but is still a normal monster.

interesting motivation, also fun to see some official cards with custom support. Accepted

Just posting to make note that I tweaked the card texts on some of my custom cards to have them work a bit more like they are intended to. Also if we come up with custom cards part way through the RP, will we be able to add them?

that is actually the function of one of the NPC's, Alex Solomon, titled "The Card Seller", is intended to be a way for everyone to add new cards once I've reviewed them (assuming they're custom) and decided on whether or not I'll allow them. since it seems I didn't put that in his Misc.

[spoiler=Jacob Tor]

Gender - Male

 

Age - 10

 

Birthday - 14 April

 

Appearance - Black kid of average height and large green eyes.  He has close-cropped black hair that always seems to stand on end.  He is often dressed up in a button-down or polo shirt and jeans.

 

Home Life - The youngest child with two older sisters, Jacob is often treated as the baby by everyone in his house except his father.  His father - a stern, straight-laced and highly successful businessman - demands excellence from all his children, so when Jacob expressed interest in Duel Monsters, his father expressed that Jacob should aim to be the best.  While Jacob's sisters do play, Jacob really only gets "practice" at school.

 

Personality - Polite and soft-spoken, Jacob is usually quite reserved, especially for a kid his age.  He gets easily frustrated when things aren't going his way and though he usually expresses this in action rather than words, he can be amusingly blunt when told to express himself.

When he plays duel monsters, though, he seems to change slightly, become even more detached.  He had started playing at a younger age than most of his classmates, but because of his father's pushes, the game lost its air of fun.  He doesn't get frustrated at a loss and instead, to most people's bemusement, he often seen smiling after a loss - before playing again and trouncing the unlucky opponent.

 

Token Appearance - Jacob has 3 tokens that are all siver circles each with a unique marking.  One has a traced red and orange fire symbol, one has a traced blue and white water droplet, and the third has a traced yellow thunderbolt.

 

Deck

[spoiler Triple Power Destruction!]

A deck focused around the underwhelming but oversupported "hybrid" type.  The "hybrid" type is more of a mechanic than a type; basically, the card is every monster type at once (as explored in the irl Monster League Battle Pack).  Because of this, they can use every powerful type-specific card (RotA, Limiter Removal, Mezuki, etc.).  Problem?  Most things of the hybrid type are Normal monsters or have effects that go -1 or more.  Jacob uses the versitility of the hybrid monsters to help summon his three big bosses (a Thunder-type, an Aqua-type, and a Pyro-type that gain more powerful effects depending on how many of the other types you have)

 

Post on some of his cards: https://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/376323-hybrid-type/

 

Misc. Information - His trio of bosses are 3 Level 7 Spellcaster Synchros that were considered garbage before the hybrid type.  Of the three, "Zanathos, Patron of Thunder" is his favorite with its shocking "Infinite Thunderbolts!" attack.  "Nero, the Aqua Madoor" is his second favorite with its cool "Absolute Zero!" move.  Finally, "Braisqie, the Matron of Heat" is his third favorite with her hot "Plasma Melting!" ability.  Besides his trio of boss monsters, his favorite card is his Secret Rare 4D-Kuriboh and its awesome power "Prism Block!".

 

Jacob has been trying to get his hands on "Sorcerer of Dark Magic" for months now.  Because his three bosses are Spellcasters and his deck can output (Hybrid) "Spellcasters" pretty easily, he always wanted to build a deck to summon the master magician.

 

 

 

unless I missed them or they're actual cards that I don't know about it looks like you didn't add your characters three ace monsters? Can't accept without knowing all the customs he'll start out with.

Accepted.

while I personally would rather wait for at least one more person if everyone is ready we could start within the next couple of days

that is actually the function of one of the NPC's, Alex Solomon, titled "The Card Seller", is intended to be a way for everyone to add new cards once I've reviewed them (assuming they're custom) and decided on whether or not I'll allow them. since it seems I didn't put that in his Misc.

I think he added them?

[0PxPz0]

I think he added them?

yep, the updated app has been added

[Tinkerer]

I think he added them?

 

Yeah.  I'm sorry.  I meant to post that I updated it after 0 mentioned I didn't put the bosses.

[0PxPz0]

due to the small number of participants, for the time being at least, I will be allowing second character, however they will be judged harsher as managing two characters at once in a battle royal style tournament, while not necessarily harder, requires a certain understanding of how you want their individual stories to play out. they don't need to be connected directly (friends, siblings, ect.) but any second character has to be just as fleshed out as your first and isn't meant to be just a prop for your first to further their story with

[0PxPz0]

Class is in session, for your first post you can either begin the project Miss Chara has given the class, socialize and observe the class (in which case I may or may not reveal other students), or question the strange note on your desk about duel monsters on the hill at recess.

[Tinkerer]

Ok, cool.  I've got an exam tomorrow morning, so I'll probably make a post around this time tomorrow.

[0PxPz0]

a character page for Luna Ermine and Elenor Saphri have been added

[Archtoddler]

Is this RP still accepting?

[0PxPz0]

it is indeed! we've only just started so there's easily room to organically integrate a new character

[Archtoddler]

Alrighty! In that case two more questions:

 

1. Are there any posting requirements I should know about, such as time in between posts, posting orders or minimum post size?

 

2. It may take me two or three days to have a character ready with a deck draft is that alright?

1.  i don't have any personal requirements, especially in this more light-hearted RP, but all the YCM RP rules apply obviously including the 100 word minimum per post

2. the amount of time it takes to make your app is nearly inconsequential, it mostly depends on how far the RP gets and, as i've said we just started, it's not likely a few days will get us to a point where adding new players is to difficult

[Archtoddler]

 

 

Ok, then if you'll have me, you can count me in!
 

[Tinkerer]

I have an idea for the direction of my next post but I'm kinda waiting on @@Arkars intro post.  I don't want to stagnate the RP though, so I'll probably post on Tuesday at latest even if Ark doesn't get their post in.

[0PxPz0]

Rhea seems distracted by her drawing ATM so i'm not sure how active Arkas' posts will be until something actually happens, there are other NPC's to interact with besides the four i've started with, Aster hasn't made an appearance and there are a couple I haven't even put in the OOC yet, so you could always place an NPC near you if you just need someone to play off of
