[COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1][I]Ryan breathed a small sigh of relief, he knew that even though he and Kaiba were pretty good duelists they wouldn't stand a chance against three of these freaks, especially if they were like Ashok's henchmen. Meaning that all of Ashok's goons had rare and powerful cards. Kaiba, Ryan, and Kou proceeded up a stairwell following the cloaked figures. As the neared the top Ryan noticed Kaiba grinning lopsidedly.[/I] "What's so funny Kaiba?" "Oh, just the fact that these guys are copying these two duelists that challenged me and Yugi back in Battle City. I just find it amazing that they are taking us up on such a small building." [I]Ryan nodded, unlike San Fancisco, Honolulu didn't have many tall buildings, the only tall ones Ryan had seen were the hotel that all the contestants were staying at and the Kaiba Corp. buidling that had been completed last year. Stepping out onto the roof of the shopping center that the three figures had led the group to Ryan noticed that they were standing on a large glass window. Nervously stepping onto the glass Ryan knew that there must be some catch as to why they had been brought here. A tall slender man turned around with pitch black eyes and spoke in a deep smug voice.[/I] "Okay, as you may know. We are after your cards and since you accepted our challenge you must think that you are great duelists. Well here's a wake up call. On each corner of this glass section is a bomb that keeps track of all of our life points. The total has been calculated to fit all three into one big sum, meaning that each team will have 12,000 life points, the first team to zero loses. Now if one team member were to lose the bomb on your side of the field would beep indicating that you are down to 8000 life points and then when the second goes it will beep louder indicating that you are down to 4000 and about to lose. Now the two before the last one to lose will not die immediately, but to insure that you will not be escaping anywhere we have had the door sealed and there is a radio jammer so don't try using your little radio Kaiba." [I]Kaiba winced a little at the man's remark.[/I] "All right now, let the duel begin." [I]The set up would follow as so. Kaiba, Baddie 1, Kou, Baddie 2, Ryan, and then the final baddie. Kaiba drew his opening hand and then his sixth card.[/I] "You fools, I'll show you the meaning of true fear. I summon Vorse Raider in attack mode and then I place these two cards face down and end my turn." [I]The one that had been speaking to them drew his sixth card and grinned.[/I] "Kaiba, I will counter your move by summoning Beserk Gorilla in attack mode and then I play the magic card Harpie's Feather Duster." [I]Kaiba merely grinned.[/I] "Fool, I chain with this! Shrink and Deck Destruction Virus of Death!! Meaning that your Gorilla is history and any other monsters with an attack of 1500 or more!! That also goes for you two." [I]Kaiba said pointing towards the other two cloaked figures. Muttering went about the three as they discarded some heavy hitters from their hands. It then shifted to Kou who drew his sixth card.[/I] "I summon my Archfiend Soldier and then I set these two cards face down and end my turn." [I]A large demon appeared with a green cape and purple colored armor. Observed as the second bad guy drew his card and showed it to Kaiba, it was a Yata-Garasu...[/I] "I summon Yata-Garasu to the field and I now attack you Ryan!" [I]The small purple bird appeared and flew a neck breaking speed towards Ryan.[/I] "Archfiend Soldier, protect Ryan now!!" [I]The demon lept in front of Ryan while drawing its sword and cleanly sliced the bird in half.[/I] "Boy, you just made me lose 1700 life points!!" [I]The man screamed as his life points dropped to 2300. Ryan nodded toward Kou as he drew he glanced over his six cards which consisted of Rocket Warrior, Marshmallon, Blue Eyes White Dragon, D.D. Warrior Lady, Sapphire Dragon, and Raigeki. Grinning, Ryan knew just what to do.[/I] "This is pay back for sending that damn bird near me. I summon forth my Sapphire Dragon!!" [I]The oddly winged dragon shot out of its card and landed gently landed on its hind legs and let out a soft roar.[/I] "All right my dragon, attack his life points directly!!" [I]The man fell down to one knee in shock as his life points dropped to 400. Ryan then ended his turn which meant that the last bad guy would show his monster to Kaiba, which just happened to be something else Ryan didn't like, the damn Injection Fairy Lily.[/I] "Well since you all have seen what this is I don't need to announce what I'm playing. Now my Fairy Lily I power you up by offering 2000 life points and now little Braxton I shall destroy your stupid dragon and clear your field for quite awhile." [I]The attack took Ryan's life points down to 2500 which made Ryan not to sure what the other two duelists had hiding in the wings of their decks.[/I][/SIZE][/COLOR]

Okay, I guess we can start today. I will be starting the rpg as soon as I get home because the starting post I have is written in a notebook at home and I'm currently at my mom's school using her computer. So I will definetly be starting the rpg.. Also, if anyone else wants to join there are two spots left, but for now I will be posting as those characters, until we get them filled.

[COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1][I]Dueling the whole time on the beach was pointless, it had zero backdrop and was just monotonous. Trailing after Kaiba, Ryan had told that Rishid and Spike that he wanted to just be alone for awhile. Having followed Kaiba to the Kaiba Corp. building Ryan jogged up to Seto and looked him in the eye.[/I] "Tell me. Is there something more to this tournament??" [I]Kaiba looked around and motioned for Ryan to follow him away from the building. As they proceeded down a regularly walked sidewalk Kaiba propped himself against a building wall and looked at Ryan.[/I] "Remember Ashok? Well I thought that if he had another Egyptian God Card there had to be others, and I decided I could lure another one out if I held this big of a tournament. That way I can.." "That way you can get another god card and then have an Ultimate deck, right?" [I]Kaiba smirked at Ryan's finishing his sentence, but he nodded in agreement.[/I] "Look I have no clue who the bad guy is this time and really I don't care, for all I know that Rishid guy could have been the bad guy and I wouldn't have known it." [I]Kaiba nodded again in agreement and then his gaze went past Ryan and behind him. Turning Ryan saw three cloaked figures approaching him and Kaiba. Glaring and sliding both of their decks into their discs the two readied themselves for a hard duel.[/I] "Seto Kaiba and Ryan Braxton we challenge you two to a duel or else we will take your cards by force, and by force we mean killing you..." [I]Ryan was about ready to lunge forward with his briefcase and clock the nearest guy until he realized that he didn't know if they had concealed guns in their cloaks. Just in the nick of time the boy named Kou, the one Ryan had seen defeat Mako jumped in with a smirk.[/I] "I think two on three is a little unfair, how about we even the score?"[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=Navy][FONT=Palatino Linotype][SIZE=1][I]Ryan watched in awe of the duelist that had gone against Mako, he had a Chaos Emperor Dragon and some crazed fusion of it and a Summoned Skull. It just defied all nature, but it still looked pretty cool. He was a little dumbstruck when the duelist had passed his turn without doing anything until he finally got something worth using which was Terrorking Archfiend.[/I] "Impressive, very impressive." [I]Was all Rishid had said and Ryan nodded in agreement as the entire combo folded out before him. As the holographic dust settled Ryan walked over towards the winner and held out his hand in congratulations.[/I] "Hi, I just saw you're duel and I thought you were pretty great." [I]Ryan said as he grinned.[/I] "Uh..Thanks." [I]Was all he got out before Ryan started yapping again.[/I] "Oh, where are my manners? I'm Ryan Braxton and..." "I'm sure everyone knows who are you are Ryan.." [I]Kaiba said as he smirked at the group.[/I] "So how goes the dueling?? I'm sure you haven't gotten booted off the island yet have you Ryan??" [I]Faking a punch to the stomach Ryan grinned.[/I] "Me? Why I have four locator cards at the moment, only six more to go." [I]Kaiba nodded and turned away from the group, walking back towards the hotel Kaiba spoke back towards the group.[/I] "If you need any rulings, help, or any kind of assistance I'm in the Kaiba Corp building just up the street from the hotel." [I]With that Kaiba left the group to its own doings.[/I][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR]

[SIZE=1][COLOR=Navy][I]Ryan sat staring out at the beach at the young man and Mako's duel, that was until some fool that also had the name Wheeler showed up and tried being buddies with him. Having read about this boy he knew he was some upstart. Standing up from the table Ryan stalked off, that is until he realized he was being followed by that damn Wheeler. Spinning around on his heel he looked at the red-head.[/I] "Look I have no idea just who the hell you are, and I personally don't care simply because you dare use Joey's last name like that. I honestly don't believe you could be any relation, let alone be anything except an impersonator of Joey, how dare you! You'll never compare to Joey's abilities as a duelist and to me you're just another insect of competition to crush with Apophis." [I]Turning on his heels Ryan stalked off towards the duel with Spike and Rishid still following him. Still feeling sore from what he said to that brat Ryan stared straight out towards the ocean, ignoring the duel he was watching. The nerve, some person using Joey's name and insulting him, the only reason Ryan had even heard about this Jon Wheeler was because of the fact that Ryan had watched him get crushed beneath the person he dueled against in the North American regionals. Knowing damn well and good that if that had been Joey, Ryan would have faced a true duelist that would have given him a good run for his money. Obviously Ryan just then snapped out of haze of anger because he noticed some odd looking monster standing on the opposing Duelist's field staring down Mako's Levia Dragon. Now this was interesting.[/I][/COLOR][/SIZE]

[SIZE=1][COLOR=Navy][I]Ryan had been wandering around the beach watching multiple duels going on, but one specific duel caught his attention. It was a duel between Mako and a teen that was about Ryan's age. Pulling up a seat Ryan watched the duel as he ordered a soda.[/I][/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkSlateBlue][I]Sarim had finally caught back up with Ryan and grinned with maniacal glee because of the fact that he could do so many violent things to Ryan without him even noticing, but he decided to lead the boy on and think that he, Sarim had no idea as to what he was doing exactly. Walking up behind Ryan, Sarim lightly tapped him on the shoulder and looked into the deep blue pools of Ryan's eyes.[/I] "Excuse me, but can I sit here at this table with you?" [I]The boy nodded slightly and Sarim slid down into the seat across from Ryan. He glanced up and noticed that Ryan's gaze had trailed off towards a duel that was going on. Mentally laughing Sarim couldn't believe how trusting Ryan was, obviously he didn't know that he was being tailed. Two distinct cloaks caught Sarim's gaze, they belonged to two of his men, and they were edging towards Ryan. Grimmacing mentally Sarim knew that if they got any closer his cover would be blown and he would be in trouble, but at that moment a platinum blond man walked up behind the two and proceeded to kick the crap out of him.[/I][/COLOR] [COLOR=Navy][I]Ryan turned his attention away from the duel and towards his back and noticed a platinum blond man beating the crap out of two caped goons. The boy looked at him with a slight grin and looked over at Ryan and the other blond man.[/I] "Hello, my name is Spike and yours is?" "Mine is Ryan." [I]Ryan looked towards the other man.[/I] "My name is Rishid." [I]The blond man said. Ryan didn't really care for much introductions, he was more intent on watching the duel, which had already started.[/I][/COLOR][/SIZE]

[COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1][I]Sarim had been walking around the large mansion he owned for about an hour now. He thought the least his men could do was send him a report or something just to let him know that they were doing their jobs! Grumbling a few curse words Sarim left the mansion and proceeded down the driveway with his duel disc on his arm. As he neared the main area where the tournament was he heard the distinct roar of a Blue Eyes White Dragon, he knew that Ryan Braxton and Kaiba only had them, he quickly ran towards the noise and saw a small group there watching an intense battle. He was right, the duelist with the BEWD was Ryan. Grinning rather gleefully he licked his lips lightly and watched as the duel was ended quickly with a Cyber Jar. Sarim knew that he had to follow Ryan so he could beat the boy and take back Apophis. It should have been his anyways, Ashok was so careless and very dramatic. His black cape getting tossed around in the fast breeze Sarim knew he would probably draw attention to himself, but it didn't matter, not when he was so close to achieving his goal.. Ryan had stopped near a card vendor to get his prize pack and Sarim snickered at the thought of conering him right before he could open his pack, unfortunately though his train of thought was interrupted by a ratehr obnoxious person speaking to him. It was some duelist he'd heard about, Sarim searched his mind until he found the correct name, it was Rex Raptor.[/I] "Did you want something boy??" [I]Sarim's voice was dripping with sarcasm, Rex merely looked at him and scoffed.[/I] "Yeah I want something from you. You're rarest card and locator card!" [I]Sarim simply laughed at this and nodded to the challenge he was recieveing, unfortunately for this little Dinosuar duelist he wouldn't stand a chance against Sarim and his deck that was filled with rare and powerful cards. Shuffling his deck Sarim slid his deck into the disc and chuckled with amusement, Kaiba's satellite would pick up on the activation but it would be under the name of someone else, a contestant that had actually recieved a duel disk. Of course he couldn't summon forth his god card because that would definetly perk Kaiba and Yugi's attention and he didn't need that. Rex took the first move.[/I] "I summon my Mad Sword Beast in attack mode and then I play the field magic card Gaia Power!!" [I]An armadillo looking beast with swords on its sides and back appeared and right behind it a massive tree appeared, obviously taking the beast's attack up to 1900. Snickering, Sarim drew his card and skimmed over his hand which consisted of a Tribe-Infecting Virus, Fiber Jar, Injection Fariy Lily, Sebeks Blessing, Vorse Raider, and Beserk Gorilla.[/I] "I shall summon my Injection Fairy Lily and then I set one card face down and end my turn." [I]The small Spellcaster appeared in her white dress with her usual medical crosson her hat and her massive needle, but now her attack was 900 and obviously Rex knew what she could do if he attacked.[/I] "I'll sacrafice my Mad Sword Beast for Dark Triceratops and end my turn." [I]Obviously Rex wasn't thinking clearly, there was still a 1000 power difference between his dinosuar and Sarim's Lily, course that was if Sarim wanted to pay the 2000 life points to power her up. Glancing at the next card he drew which was Drillago he definetly wanted to attack.[/I] "I first shall summon my Vorse Raider in attack mode and then I will pay the two thousand life points to power up Injection and I will have her pulverize your pitiful Dinosuar and now I activate this quick play magic card. Sebek's Blessing which gives me life points equal to the damage I just inflicted to you, meaning that I now gain 1000 life points. Now Vorse Raider attack him and take him down to 1100 life points." [I]Sarim could see the realization that now had dawned upon Rex's face, he'd bitten off more than he could chew and he was paying the price.[/I] "I'll set one monster in defense mode and three cards on the field and end my turn." [I]This was too perfect, of course if Sarim were dueling anyone higher than Rex he could be having a hard time right now because Lily would have been destroyed, but Rex was either playing dumb or he was just flat out dumb. Sarim drew his card, it was his second Sebek's Blessing.[/I] "I grow tired of this and I have someone to look for so I'll end this now. I summon Tribe-Infecting Virus and attack you're face down monster." [I]The monster was revealed as a Giant Soldier of Stone, but since Gaia power was on the field it lost 400 defense power so its defense was equal to Tribe-Infecting's attack.[/I] "Hmph, fine I shall have my Vorse Raider destroy it and then I pay two thousand life points for Lily and now I shall blow you out of this tournament." [I]Rex fell over in shock, but he was then rather rudely hauled to his feet where Sarim yanked Rex's deck out of the duel disk and took his rarest card and then demanded three of Rex's locator cards. Rex reluctantly handed over the three which put him out of the tournament. Gripping his three cards Sarim stormed off to find Ryan again, that pitiful duel with Rex had given Ryan enough time to get away from him and Sarim wasn't a happy camper when things got away from him.[/I][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1]I'd like a banner that had Genjyo Sanzo, Sha Gojyo, Cho Hakkai, and Son Goku on it with the floral background from the Volume 1 manga cover of the Saiyuki manga and on the text I'd like it to read "I'll kill you." Thanks for the help.[/SIZE][/COLOR] Actually here's a pic that I'd like made into the banner. I know its a little big but I don't mind if a lot of it is cropped and such, I'd just like it to keep all of the characters in it. [img]http://daiquiribird.philsites.net/saiyuki/gallery/salty_dog1/bluejay_liv3.jpg[/img]

[COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1][I]Ryan was still in awe of the fact that Jason had Exodia Necross out on the field, course Jason knew full and well that his Necross couldn't destroy Marshmallon, and if he attacked Ryan's Warrior Lady, Ryan would simply trigger her effect and take Necross out of play. Having already processed this in his mind Ryan knew that he was safe, even though Necross' attack shot up to 2300.[/I] "I'll just summon Giant Soldier of Stone in defense mode and end my turn." [I]Smirking, Ryan drew his next card. "Perfect." Ryan thought as he looked at his Blue Eyes White Dragon.[/I] "Heheheheheheheheheh...." [I]Jason looked oddly over at Ryan, as if the boy had finally lost it from being in the sun so long.[/I] "Ummm...What's up with you??" [I]Suddenly turning serious, Ryan's blue eyes turned into deep pools of determination. Jason could feel an icy cold finger running down his spine.[/I] "I sacrafice my Warrior Lady and Marshamllon for this!! Blue Eyes White Dragon!!" [I]The massive white dragon exploded onto the field from its card. Its white body glistened in the sun as its sapphire blue eyes locked onto the massive Necross.[/I] "Rocket Warrior! Attack his Giant Soldier!! Now Blue Eyes White Dragon, WHITE LIGHTING ON HIS NECROSS!!" [I]The soldier was hit by Rocket Warrior and proceeded to shatter into thousands of pixelated pieces while the Blue Eyes fired off a massive stream of white energy at the black exodia which caused Jason's life points to drop to 1100.[/I] "All right Jason, you can take your turn. I'll warn you though right now, once you end it I will take you're necross and you out of the tournament." [I]Jason winced a little at Ryan's confidence but he regained his composure and glared right back at Ryan.[/I] "Yeah, you wish. I play this, Destruction of Heaven and Earth!! Kiss your two monsters good bye!!" [I]Ryan's face contorted to that of pure horror at the realization that Jason had just destroyed his BEWD in one move.[/I] "Also, this little gem ensures me that you can't revive that damn thing because any LIGHT or EARTH monsters in your graveyard are removed from play." [I]Gritting his teeth Ryan could only watch as his Blue Eyes and Rocket Warrior were sucked into a massive abyss.[/I] "Now Exodia Necross, attack him for 2800!!" [I]The massive monster's giant fist came crashing down upon Ryan in an instant. Still gritting his teeth Ryan drew his next card, it was Graceful Charity.[/I] "I play Graceful Charity and draw three cards!" [I]The three were Cyber Jar, Sinister Serpent, and his second Blue Eyes.[/I] "I'll discard Blue Eyes White Dragon and Sinister Serpent and then I place this monster face down and end my turn." [I]Jason bit as his Necross' attack shot up to 3100.[/I] "Necross, attack that face down card!!" "Aww, too bad you activated my Cyber Jar." [I]Jason screamed out a rather vulgar word towards Ryan, who merly tsked the boy for his language. Jason showed his five cards and he had nothing, Ryan on the other hand had four monsters. Sapphire Dragon, Spear Dragon, Tribe-Infecting Virus, and his second Marshmallon. Jason quietly ended his turn and Ryan drew his next card and ended the duel with a direct attack with Spear Dragon.[/I] Cards recieved from duel: Emerald Pendant (Super Rare) Knight Of The East Chains Of A Demon Paladin Of The Runes Crazed Goldfish[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1][I]At first the hanger controller was a little reluctant on opening the doors to let Zero and Deathscythe out, but after some convincing on Heero's part the doors opened and Zero was catapualted out into the sky. Heero sooned followed and brought up a visual transmission.[/I] "I want you to activate the Zero X system now, I'll activate Deathsycthe's cloaking device." [I]Nodding with a large pit in his stomach Alex did so. The system hummed to life as Alex slid the helmet over his face. In an instant massive amounts of data appeared, mainly brining up Deathsycthe Hell's statistics and Heero's tactics, but Alex knew that the tactics Heero used would be different because of the fact he was piloting Deathscythe, the system still gave him a 89% chance of victory. Quickly turning to his right he brought the beam saber up in a defensive move that blocked the beam scythe that Heero had brought down. Mentally this was the part where Alex was worried he'd go crazy again, but so far he was calm.[/I] "You okay over there Alex??" [I]Heero's voice asked in a concerned tone, grinning Alex replied via audio.[/I] "Yeah, so far so good, though I don't want to jinx it." "Alex, are you operating at one hundred percent??" [I]Heero asked in a semi-scolding voice. Alex brought up the screen on the system's operating percentage.[/I] "It says ninety percent, I can't get the system to go any higher." [I]Just then Quatre's voice came over both channels.[/I] "That's because I had the last ten percent locked away in a nice little package in Zero's data banks. You have to align yourself perfectly to activate the last amount of the system, or I have to give you the access codes to over ride that program. At the moment though I doubt I will because you're still inexperienced with the system, right now you're doing great but you'll have to get even better. Right now though we should be heading for California, I know that Une has one last base there and I have a feeling that if we cripple that base it would definetly make Une feel the pressure of war." [I]Sighing reluctantly, Alex thrusted Zero towards the hanger along with Heero behind Wing Zero.[/I][/COLOR][/SIZE]

OOC: This post introduces the bad guy for the rpg. [COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1][I]As Sarim walked down the stone floored hall he was lost deep in thought. He was amazed what good luck he had, first Kaiba is stupid enough to hold another tournament as big as his Battle Cruise and just as popular as Battle City (Since Battle Cruise was very selective.), then there was the fact that so many rare cards were running about, and then the last item of buisness was the fact that Kaiba and Yugi had their god cards. But there was an unknown factor thrown into the plans, the fourth God Card, Apophis. Sarim was disappointed that Ashok couldn't beat the brats and keep his god card and then take Yugi and Kaiba's. Of course Ashok hurling himself overboard after he was beaten was just disgusting to Sarim.[/I] "Always the dramatic one." [I]He muttered as he walked silently towards a large door. Pushing it open he stepped into a dimly lit library. Glancing around he walked over to a book shelf that had to be at least ten feet high, but the book he needed was eye level. After grabbing the black covered book he sat down in a rather finely fashioned chair and opened the book to an already marked page. On the page was the stone tablet that had been found in Egypt by Isis and taken to Domino. The only difference was that the picture displayed the tablet in its comepleted form, not only did the Pharoh need Obelisk, Osiris (Slifer), and Ra. But he also needed three other god cards, one of which some brat named Ryan Braxton held, the second one was held by Sarim himself, and the third was held by a woman in Egypt. Shutting the book in a huff Sarim was angry again, and when he was angry things usually had a tendency to get broken of killed. He was angry at the fact that some brat now controlled Apophis and also the fact that he had no idea where the brat was!! Just before Sarim was about to pick up a vase and hurl it across the room a young man opened the door quietly and spoke.[/I] "Sir, we have located Apophis' wielder." [I]Sarim's eyes brightened with a crazed glee, finally he'd found the brat.[/I] "Follow him and don't let him get away, and when the time is right. Crush him.." [I]The man nodded and quietly walked back out of the door. A few minutes later Sarim walked out of his library rather happily, his black cape flitting behind him as he walked at a brisk pace towards his room. As he entered his room he walked over to the bed and picked up his duel disc, if worse came to worse he'd go challenge Kaiba, Yugi, and that brat. Anyone else who got in his way was just suffering from bad luck. Strapping on the disc he turned towards a medium height marble stand that held a glass cube. Nearing the cube he saw his greatest achievement yet. Anubis, the fifth god card that Maxmillion Pegasus made. As history would have it, Pegasus made Apophis, Anubis, and the the final god card before he made the three that Yugi and Kaiba wield. Sarim didn't know the details, only the fact that Pegasus thought Apophis and the others were created by hell itself because right after he finished making them he saw a horrible dream of the apocolypse and people dying. So Pegasus sealed them away, far beneath his castle on Duelist Kingdom. But ever since Pegasus lost his castle became empty, which meant theives were having field days, if they decided to brave all of Pegasus' booby traps. Marik had heard about those three god cards and wanted to lay claim to those for himself so he told Ashok, Sarim, and the woman Tyhara to go to Duelist Kingdom and steal them. They did what their master had wanted, but once they had taken the cards it was Sarim who decided he would not give his god card to Marik. "Marik has Osiris and Ra, why shouldn't we get to keep these? We did all the work!" Sarim had said to the others, it had obviously worked, or it could have been the fact that once they had finally managed to get off Duelist Kingdom Marik had "changed his ways" that tactic had made Sarim's plan work perfectly. As he looked into a nearby mirror, Sarim's green eyes still glinted with malice towards Yugi and the brat, but yet he snickered as he looked at Anubis in his hand, it would destroy Yugi, Kaiba, and the brat and that would give him five god cards!! That is if the incompetence of the people he had tailing the three actually did their jobs, for once.[/I][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[QUOTE=Balinese][FONT=Comic Sans MS] if it's all right, i'll see if i can find an appropriate picture for Vela. i like my characters to have faces in my mind.[/FONT][/QUOTE] All the characters have pictures, they are availible if you click on the name of that character on the line that says [COLOR=Navy]Picture[/COLOR] that provides the picture. To all those who want the pictures you have to click on the second time the name appears in the PICTURE thing, that will lead you to animeshrine, to use the picture correctly though you must put it in URL tag text. Thanks. Hayden has now been filled. Just to make this easier, could the rest of the people who sign up send me sample posts or links to other rpgs they are in. I would greatly appreciate this.

I just thought I'd let you know I will be editing in who get's what part on my first post so be sure to watch that for wether you get in or not.

[COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1]The world of Gaia has existed as a paradise for space travelers from other worlds and besides being just a trade hub it was also a resort with its great oceans and lush lands, it was Eden. Until that day? At first it was just small ponds drying up, then lakes, and finally the oceans dried up. Only three water resources are left, Lake Thyala, Lake M'ihel, and a lake that no one is able to get near due to impassible mountains. The reasons these massive inland lakes have not dried up has been determined that they are constantly supplied by underground water resources that are right underneath the planet?s surface. But the government didn't have enough money to fund the expeditions to get the water out onto the oceans. Enter Axerion Enterprises. A company that was involved world wide supplies before the ?incident" occured, as soon as that had happened Axerion declared a Coup D'Etat. By overthrowing the old goverment Axerion guranteed it sucess. At the present rate though, the population is sky rocketing and the population seems to be devouring up the resources before more can be found or substitutes can be developed. Axerion President Urizukio ordered the launch of a satellite into space so as to see if there were any way to the third large lake. After a few months of research, Urizuko decided that he will fund a small party of elite fighters to go and survey the land, if they meet any people on that side of the mountain range they are to negotiate peacefully, but if the people become violent the fighter?s are to retaliate if needed. They were given supplies, food, and portable tents. They?d need to go by horse through the mountains. Once the group had arrived at the mountains they loaded up the horses and have taken to going through a trail that would lead them out of the mountains.[/SIZE][/COLOR] Okay that's the storyline, but of course with any FF game/rpg there are going to be massive plot twists, love, death, and of course betrayal. So let's get this going shall we?? Before I get down to the basics about what I want for character let me set some ground rules that I have decided that need to be implimented on this rpg. 1. If you get in this rpg I expect decent posts. I will mainly go for Quality over Quantity. 2. I will inform you if you are chosen via PM, if you do not recieve a PM and I get a whiney PM about why you didn't get picked I will simply put you on my ignore list and delete your PM, of course that will be followed by a rather informative reply. 3. When you are in the rpg I expect you to post often, I have grown tired of PMing, IMing etc to get people to post, if I have to do either of those more than three times I'm kicking you out of the rpg and giving your spot to the other person who applied for the place (side note, that is if you have not posted at all). Also, if I PM you and you say that you are too busy or some pile of crap like that and I find out that you are posting constantly in other rpgs and stuff I will be having some rather well chosen words with you and then I will kick you out (also if you have not posted or attempted to post). But if you are having a brain lock up or something like that I understand and am totally okay with waiting a while for you to post. Mainly what I'm trying to get at with this rule is to please not just join this rpg and never post what so ever, I will start getting worried if you post like once or twice and then don't but I'll just PM you and politely ask what's up. I mean we all have our days when we have a brain lock up and can't function. So that's okay. 4. Please, and I emphasize on the word please would you be ever so kind as to not post 5-10 lines of just crap text and then proceed to say "OOC: I'll edit later" and never do. Okay now here is what I want. Name Age Weapon of Choice Bios Picture Spells: (The White and Black Mages and the summoners for the time being now.) Summons: (Summoners only) Double Summons: (Summoners Only) Okay here are the characters that you can sign up as, I will take 2 applicants and decide who gets in via that way. Also once these characters are filled up I will take only a few other people as their own custom characters, but they will not be affiliated with this party. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name: Tylan Age: 24 Weapon Of Choice: Black double edged sword. Bios: Not much is known about his childhood past, but his adulthood life has been an open book to Axerion enterprises. Originally hired as a soldier to serve in the Coup d?etat but that position was scrapped and he was then made as an assassin who was to kill any of the government leaders that refused to surrender. He did his job well, he had to quickly murder the former vice-president and the cabinet of the president before Axerion took over the government. After his job was over Axerion had him practically exiled from the main city and put in a large estate near lake Mi?hel so as to keep him at peace, but since the president of Axerion is wanting some professional fighters to help the party get through the mountain, Tylan has come back out of ?retirement.? Picture: [url=http://www.animeshrine.com/gallery.php?series=warofgenesis&image=4]Here is Tylan[/url] Personality: A rather cold hearted person who seems to have his own agenda. Usually he can be seen around Acacia chatting about their times as mercenaries. [COLOR=DarkOrchid]Name: Edana Age: 19 Bios: She is one of the younger members of the party. She was rather young when the Coup took place and doesn?t remember the fact that her father was killed in the fighting. Her family lives at lake Mi?hel on a small farm raising horses for riding lessons and they also raise some small crops also. Edana grew weary of the farm life and headed to Lake Thyala where she joined Axerion?s elite military services (this is because of her sharp shooting skills). So far she has risen to the rank of colonel Weapon of Choice: Horse Whip and Hand Gun Picture: [url=http://www.animeshrine.com/gallery.php?series=warofgenesis&image=30]Edana[/url] Personality: Perky, light-hearted, and always good natured. She?s always the one to help cheer people up when feeling bad. Cryiel has this character[/COLOR] [COLOR=Red]Name: Hayden Age: 20 Bios: Hayden was 13 when he was sent to military school by his mother, despite his father?s protests. When he was being tested for what field he would excel in Hayden saw a gun laying on a target practice counter. Quickly picking it up he fired off all the rounds in the gun and got all perfects on the shots, this of course meant he was going into sniping/sharp shooting field of expertise. But as all things start with a good note they usually crash with a bad note, this happened when Hayden was continually harassed by his fellow classmates, all because his father had shown him how to use a gun since he was five. After being continually harassed by classmates, treated like dirt by the staff Hayden never got the respect he deserved, even when he told the C.O. to kiss his *** and proceeded to walk off the campus grounds with his father?s pistols in their proper holsters. Weapon of Choice:His father?s two pistols which are energy bullet based Picture: [url=http://www.animeshrine.com/gallery.php?series=warofgenesis&image=3]Hayden[/url] Personality: Usually a ladies man, meaning that he?s continually flirting and is always turned down. No matter if he gets a date or gets a smack in the face he is dead serious in battle. The Vampire Ed is Hayden now.[/COLOR] Name: Acacia Age: 25 Bios: She?s always been a loner at heart, ever since she was in high school. Though she was an outcast she at one time had met true love. He was a year older than her but he treated her like an equal. Unfortunately though, he was part of a gang that had arranged a hit on her gang and Acacia was forced to kill him at age 17. Ever since that fateful day Acacia has sealed herself off from all contact with people. In fact she joined the Axerion elite assassin corps which requires that she not associate with people and if she does they must be with people in her own department. Personality: Has been a mercenary for most of her life. She always carries her jobs out to the letter and despises relationships that involve love. Picture: [url=http://www.animeshrine.com/gallery.php?series=warofgenesis&image=42] Acacia[/url] Weapon of Choice: Throwing Knives and a Katana [COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]Name: Bedros Age: 20 Bios: He has always been one of the more diligent mages in the village. When he was at the young age of 10 he began studying the black magic arts. By the age of 11 he was conjuring minor spells, by age 12 he was able to conjure first level spells such as Fire, Ice, Lightning, and Water. As the years progressed Bedros became more adept in magic usage, but he wanted more training so he took fighting lessons with a staff. When Bedros was 15 he gained the ability to use level 2 spells such as Fira, Blizzara, Thundara, and Watera. So far, Bedros? spells are extremely powerful but he knows there is a higher level of magic that he has yet to tap but he just doesn?t want to attempt it just yet. Picture: [url=http://www.animeshrine.com/gallery.php?series=warofgenesis&image=26]Bedros[/url]Siplhspeed Pilot has this character Weapon of Choice: Staff Personality: A strong willed Black Mage of 20, he has always been skilled in the dark magic and is always willing to teach others how to use magic correctly. His main weapon of choice is a staff which he has learned how to use since he was 14. Most people don?t challenge him to long range weapon spars because he would simply over power them. Spells: Fire, Thunder, Water, Blizzard, Fira, Thundara, Watera, Blizzara[/COLOR] [COLOR=Purple]Name: Vela Age: 17 Bios: When Vela was ten her parents both decided that she would be a White Mage so she would equal the balance of White and Black Mages in the village. She still is being trained in the finer arts of White Magic such as the defensive magic spells along with offensive spells. At the current moment, Vela is also taking sword lessons and is in the advanced level of fighting. This meaning that she is best of the best in her class. Vela?s past is somewhat of a blur. She doesn?t remember when the world seemed to fall into a haze of dust and heat but she knows that it wasn?t always like this. Her family are some what aristocrats because of their massive library on ancient arts of magic spells, chants, sutras, exorcisms, etc. Vela on the other hand really doesn?t care about the ?aristocracy? of her family, she just would rather go outside and hang out with her friends. Personality: One of the younger White Mages, she is very adept for her young age. She has a tendency to be an airhead but other than that she has a level mind. Vela?s weapon of choice is a medium length double-edged sword Spells: Cure, Esuna, Protect, Shield, Life Weapon of Choice: Medium Length Double-Edged Sword. Picture: [url=http://www.animeshrine.com/gallery.php?series=warofgenesis&image=31]Vela[/url] Balinese has this character[/COLOR] [COLOR=Magenta]Name: Reese Age: 19 Personality: Usually quiet, mainly because she is deep in thought or she doesn't have anything worth saying. But when Reese has something to say everyone listens because she drives her point across and strikes the heart of the discussion. Bios: Reese has always been different from all her friends. They all discovered their talents at a young age while Reese just seemed to be there to cheer them on as they succeeded and she didn?t progress. One day though her life totally changed. When she was eighteen, she and her mother and father were out in the fields collecting some food for the harvest, but out of no where a large monster appeared and at first didn?t harass Reese and her parents. But after a few more minutes of staying there the monster then proceeded to attack them, her parents were able to cast defensive magic but even their combined strength wasn?t enough to protect them. Reese finally became so distraught that at first she thought she was going insane when she heard the voice but then she realized it was a summon monster calling to her. Brining her hands up she made very complex yet quick motions which then called forth the creature known as Ifrit. Ifrit quickly disposed of the monster and then disappeared, that day Reese knew that she was to become a summoner. When she first arrived at High Summoner Prynn?s estate she was in awe, she?d heard about him being a very selective person on who would be his apprentice. Upon entering the estate her parents were told to stay at the front gates while she went further in to meet Summoner Prynn. While she wandered what seemed to be endless halls Reese wondered if she was going to be forced to do the summoning again or not. If she had to she had no idea how, when Ifrit came to her. Lost in her thoughts Reese finally entered the room where Summoner Prynn was. Reese finally snapped out of her train of thought and looked around the room and noticed where she was. Prynn had been observing her for quite a bit before she?d snapped out of it. Reese standing there rather nervously didn?t know what to do so she just introduced herself and Prynn simply stood up and looked her in the face and said ?Welcome my new apprentice.? Weapon of Choice: Rapier which is located on her back because her long hair is able to cover it most of the time. Summons: Ifrit, Ramuh, Leviathan Double Summons: Odin, Magus Sisters, Phoenix, Madeen Picture: [url=http://www.animeshrine.com/gallery.php?series=warofgenesis&image=10]Reese[/url] Ohkami has this character.[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkGreen]Name: Prynn Age: 26 Bios: The High Summoner of the Mage village. He is on the village council and is highly respected along with the head mage Cid. Though very different from the head mage, Prynn lives in a massive estate which has been in his family for generations. Prynn is a bachelor, which is rather shocking to the gossipy women in the village seeing as how he?s still so young. He is single still because he is focusing on finding an apprentice worthy of being his equal. Prynn is doing this because he knows that the village must have a High Summoner. Unfortunately though, some of his past apprentices have either come close to death or quit and turned to practicing magic again. Finally one day Prynn opened his estate doors to a young girl named Reese who had supposedly summoned forth the hell demon Ifrit to defend herself and her parents. When the girl arrived in his testing room he saw a massive aura surrounding her and then the aura took the shape of Ifirt itself, but there was something else, her aura matched his own aura?s wavelength. He?d finally found his perfect apprentice who would be able to do the double summoning with him which was the ultimate technique a summoner could accomplish. One night, after many months of training Prynn decided that Reese?s power had matured enough that they could attempt the double summoning. When they arrived in the courtyard where they had been practicing (Reese had summoned several other monsters, Ramuh and Leviathan had appeared to have chosen her as well.) they performed the Double Summoning but they were only able to see the aura, the creature could not be seen or heard. Prynn though, was not so easily subdued, neither was his apprentice. For the rest of that year the two devoted themselves to perfecting the Double Summoning. Finally one day they were able to summon forth the wandering knight known as Odin, but according to Prynn?s scriptures there were several others that could be summoned as well, he and Reese just needed to practice the other movements to get them summoned forth. Weapon of Choice: Staff Summons: Bahamut, Shiva, Alexander Double Summons: Odin, Magus Sisters, Phoenix, Madeen Picture: [url=http://www.animeshrine.com/gallery.php?series=warofgenesis&image=28]Prynn[/url] Strike Gundam has this character[/COLOR] Name: Cid Age: 44 Bios: Not much is known about Cid?s past except that he is an expert at using his magic to repair machinery and other things. He is head of the village council and is highly respected Picture: [url=http://www.animeshrine.com/gallery.php?series=magnacarta&image=8]Cid[/url] Weapon Of Choice: N/A --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Okay now for my character [COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1]Name: Cael: Age 21 Bios: Cael was about 16 when the Coup D?etat happened. Both of his parents were in the military. Unfortunately for poor Cael, his parents were killed in action. Now at first when the army came and told him that he had an uncle alive Cael was overjoyed. Sadly Cael?s uncle was a pimp of young boys, and he was fresh out. So Cael?s innocence was lost at his tender age of 16. His uncle had sex parties every weekend in which he would force Cael to wear nothing but a collar with a chain in the back, and every time he would have to ?entertain? some 30-40 year old man who was about as perverted as his uncle. As if that weren?t enough, when there weren?t parties Cael was forced to take sodomy from his uncle who said that Cael was his best boy yet. At age 17 though, Cael?s uncle had an unfortunate meeting with a steak knife, glass vase, and then was stripped of his penis and balls. The authorities, when they arrived saw Cael practically naked (his uncle never bought him any clothes) and a cold distant look on his face. At that moment in time they either didn?t figure it out or didn?t give a damn, but Cael had murdered the bastard and then when he removed the man of his pride that he had constantly used to torture Cael with, was rammed into his own buttocks. After that incident Cael was given some clothes and set loose in the city where he wandered aimlessly for a day or so until he came upon a dojo where an expert sword master resided, he had lived there until he was 20 which was when Axerion hired him. Picture: [url=http://www.animeshrine.com/gallery.php?series=warofgenesis&image=14]Cael[/url] Personality: Cold on the outside but has a calm and good natured personality when with people he trusts. Weapon of Choice: The Black Sword he usually carries.[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1][I]Hot tears of anger and sorrow brimmed and spilled down his face freely from what he'd done to Anya and her gundam. As Alex proceeded down the corridoor of the Desert Moon he wanted to head for the bridge so he could give Raul and the others a good kick in the face for what they had made him do. But then as he neared the lift he stopped, it was his own fault for activating the Zero X system. He'd activated the system willingly to see what it was capable of and he now damn well knew what destructive force he had. Still stepping into the lift he punched the button that led to the hanger level. Once the lift's humming stopped Alex stepped out and proceeded down the corridoor towards the large metallic doors that housed all five of the gundams. The door opened with a quick whoosh and Alex stepped in lightly and started towards Zero in the far corner of the hanger where a large group of mechanics were milling about it. Altron on the other hand had a larger group of engineers, mechanics, and system repairmen working on it's battered and nearly wrecked body. Hanging his head down he walked past the reminder of what he'd done to Anya, but that was soon replaced by the hatred of the gundam that looked like an angel.[/I] "Pfft.. More like an angel of hell." [I]Alex said bitterly to no one, that is until he noticed Heero standing by the gundam and staring at it rather dreamily. The seasoned pilot turned around and looked directly into Alex's eyes. Heero's eyes still burned with the intensity that they had back when he was still a gundam pilot.[/I] "I know you hate yourself for what you did, but get over it." [I]Clenching his hands into tight fists he stared daggers back at Heero who seemed unphased by this, seeing as how he walked calmly over to Alex who now had tears of anger coming down his face in full force. Still with their eyes locked Alex didn't see the hard punch coming towards his face until it was almost too late, he brought his arm up in defense.[/I] "See, one of the effects of using the Zero system, you are able to predict your opponent's move. Course I have no idea what the PX system did. I think Quatre was babbling about how it was able to practically slow down an enemy's movement in the user's eyes. Maybe that's why you were able to stop me at such a critical moment. Either way I want you to get over what you did to Anya, she knew the risks. Right now she may be pissed at you but you need to focus on getting this damn thing to work for you and not the other way around. Clear???" [I]Alex nodded semi-bitterly towards the lecture. Heero was right, he really couldn't do anything for Anya since she was majorly pissed off at him, and he still needed to be able to control this gundam.[/I] "Get in, I'll borrow the deathscythe gundam. I doubt Tanya will mind if I do." [I]Heero headed towards the large black behemoth that was Deathscythe Hell as Alex climbed into Wing Zero. [/I][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1]I personally think Astro Boy is a really great show, in all honesty the animation reminds me that of Cyborg 009; which I also enjoyed watching. The episodes up until yesterday though just seemed to be character development for Astro (which is a good thing in my opinion) but yesterday *proceeds to drool* I believe was one of the finer episodes thus far, I mean here we introduce a robot that is actually as powerful or not more powerful than Astro himself until he gets a little "jolt" from the past which then allows him to pull off an impressive manuver. All in all I think Astro Boy was an improvement from the repeating episodes of my chibi gundams. I mean I love the chibiness but Astro Boy is really a great improvement and I can't wait to see more. Also, Tezuka Osamu is a bloody genius for making this series.[/SIZE][/COLOR]

OOC: Everyone, every duel that is started is at 4000 life points. Please make the correction if you have started any duels with 8000 life points. Thank you. [COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1][I]Ryan watched with satisfaction as Jason drew his next card. With a grin the young boy started his Main Phase.[/I] "All right, I play my Archfiend Soldier in attack mode and then I set this card face down and end my turn." [I]Nodding Ryan drew his next card which was Rageki he nodded with approval.[/I] "I play the magic card Pot Of Greed which allows me to draw two more cards from my deck." [I]A large green pot with a rather large grin appeared as Ryan drew two more cards from his deck which were Marshmallon and Holy Crucifixion.[/I] "All right Jason, I'll play this monster face down and end my turn." [I]Jasno's face was that of pure glee as he proceeded to draw his next card.[/I] "I first play the magic card Foolish Burial and discard my Left Leg Of The Forbidden One and then I play the magic card Graceful Charity and draw three more cards but then I discard my Right Leg and Right Arm Of The Forbidden One. To end my turn I then summon out my Goblin Attack Force! My goblins, attack his dragon!!!" [I]Ryan's life points dropped to 3600 but as Jason's Archfiend Soldier withdrew its attack from his face-down card Jason's life points dropped down to 3000.[/I] "Heh, I guess you don't know my new best friend. Marshamallon." [I]Drawing his next card Ryan grinned happily, it was United We Stand.[/I] "I summon forth Rocket Warrior in attack mode and then I equip it with the magic card United We Stand taking it up to 3100!! Now my warrior, destroy his Archfiend Soldier!!" [I]As the dust cleared Jason's life points had dropped to 1800. Already things were coming to a close.[/I] "All right that will end my turn so go Jason." [I]Jason drew his next card and then snickered.[/I] "I now play the magic card Painful Choice! My five cards that I choose are Exodia The Forbidden One, Nimble Momonga, Backup Soldier, Strike Ninja, and Kuriboh." [I]Looking over the cards Ryan decided maybe Jason was getting arrogant about not needing to use Exodia, but obviously Jason's theory was wrong seeing as how he was getting creamed by Ryan.[/I] "I'll let you keep Strike Ninja." [I]Jason grinned as he discarded the rest of the cards to his graveyard.[/I] "Now you fool, I play Contract With Exodia and summon forth my Exodia Necross!! HAHAHAHA!!! I hope you can try to beat that!" [I]Ryan's eyes widened in shock. Jason had comepletly reformatted his deck for Necross. As he drew his next card Ryan hoped there was something he could do to get rid of that creature, and the second Rocket Warrior he'd drawn wouldn't do it.[/I] "All I can do is summon my D.D. Warrior Lady into defense mode and end my turn." [I]Already preparing for one of his monsters to get destroyed Ryan watched as Jason took his turn.[/I][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[quote name='ArgolisDragon']Uh no, he does not negate her effect because Hades negates effects of monsters he DESTROYS in battle. Lily's effect resignates in the battle phase before she is destroyed.[/quote] [COLOR=Navy]Oops, my bad. ^__^;;; I guess I misinterpreted the effect. See I know that if it destroyed a Witch Of The Black forest its effect would be null and void so I thought that if he attacked/battled an Injection Fairy Lily her effect wouldn't work. I guess I just goofed up on that interpretation.[/COLOR]

Okay this first deck I made is just a casual play deck and I emphasize the word CASUAL PLAY. So I really do not want ratings, just suggestions and fixes. And yes I know some of the major things are missing but there is a simple explination to that, they are all in my other deck. [B][U][COLOR=Red]Tribute Monsters[/U][/B] Mystical Knight Of Jackal Marie The Fallen One Airknight Parshath Dark Triceratops [B][U]Low Level Monsters[/U][/B] Fire Princess Cyber Jar Injection Fairy Lily Kaiser Sea Horse Witch Of The Black Forest Skilled Dark Magician Twin-Headed Behemoth Dancing Fairy Cannon Soldier x2 Des Koala Sangan Sinister Serpent Nimble Momonga x3 Skull-Marked Ladybug [B][U]Magic Cards[/U][/B] Premature Burial Graceful Charity Token Thanksgiving Dian Keto The Cure Master Dark Hole Monster Reborn Snatch Steal Giant Trunade Confiscation Scapegoat Pot Of Greed Axe Of Despair Mage Power Swords Of Revealing Light Heavy Storm Change Of Heart [B][U]Trap Cards[/U][/B] Solemn Wishes Gravity Bind Waboku x3 Mirror Force [B][U]Side Deck[/U][/B] Solemn Wishes x2 Gravity Bind Freed The Brave Wanderer Magic Jammer x2 Light Of Intervention Negate Attack Ceasfire Magic Drain The Forceful Sentry Dian Keto The Cure Master Multiplication Of Ants x2 Wave Motion Cannon[/COLOR] That was an attempt at a Life Point gainer for me and burner for you kind of deck. I would just like suggestions and not ratings for that deck. The next deck I have is a Fiend deck, and is my competitive one.

I have a second Hades and Necrofear in the side deck so that I could quicken the chances of having a field control with Hades and my other fiends, plus with all the darn Injection Fairy Lilies that have been making a comeback I'm glad that if Ha Des is on the field he would negate her effect since she would most likely end up charging at a fiend and if Dark Ruler is on the field, can we say big ouchie for Liliy's controller??? Anywho, I was just wondering if I could get some suggestions on this. Thanks

[QUOTE=ArgolisDragon]Eh, if anybody would like to take a shot at finding some weaknesses in this deck that would be greatly appreciated.

OOC: Marcus, please improve your posting quality. I'm growing very sick and tired of reading 6-10 lines of text. [SIZE=1][COLOR=Navy][I]As Ryan and Aidian entered the cafe Ryan could feel his stomach growling in protest. He'd been dueling on an empty stomach for this long, and his stomach was too pleased with him. Sliding into a booth, Aidian and Ryan looked around the medium-lit room. Obviously this was the best place to get some trades and buys. An old man with hair that reminded Ryan of Yugi was sitting at a table next to the windows and was selling some cards to some of the duelists and some kids as well. Plopping his briefacse on the table Ryan thew in the combination with ease and opened the case quickly. Skimming over the cards Ryan smirked a little before he noticed Aidian was looking at him rather puzzled.[/I] "Heheh...No worries, I'm just grinning over all the major stuff I brought. I especially am pleased with the cards that are in this set, especially this Cherry Blossom Ninja." [I]Glancing back up Ryan noticed a young man sauntering over towards their table. A duel disk on his tanned arm. As he neared the table Ryan realized that the boy was in fact a former opponent he'd gone against in Battle Cruise. Jason, the Exodia deck user.[/I] "Well, well, well. If it isn't Ryan Braxton from Battle Cruise. I heard you got a rather powerful card in that deck of yours. Well as you can guess I use Exodia still, but not in the sense that I use Exodia to win, that's used by another person. Anyways, Ryan Braxton! I challenge you to a duel!!" [I]Still intently focused on the cards in his deck Ryan turned slightly with his eyes half closed and a dreamy grin on his face.[/I] "First, I eat. Then I shall duel you" [I]Jason nodded slightly and returned to the bar stool and ordered some food as well. After eating his burger and fries Ryan picked up his briefcase and tapped Jason on the shoulder who then followed him out to the beach.[/I] "All right Ryan! Prepare to lose to my ultimate deck!!" [I]Ryan chuckled slightly and placed his deck into his duel disk which then triggered the disk to flip around and connect and bring up the life point counter which bleeped to a healthy 4000. Ryan had lost sight of Aidian who must still be in the cafe or who had slid out to duel some more, but that didn't worry Ryan. Aidian was a big boy and could fend for himself.[/I] "All right Ryan, I start off by playing the magic card Foolish Burial and I discard my Left Arm Of The Forbidden One into my graveyard and then I summon Reflect Bounder in attack mode! Its your turn." [I]Ryan drew his cards and glanced over his hand which consisted of Rocket Warrior, Sapphire Dragon, Lord Of Dragons, Blue Eyes White Dragon, Pot of Greed. His sixth card was D.D. Warrior Lady.[/I] "All right Jason! I summon forth my Sapphire Dragon in attack mode and end my turn!" [I]Watching cautiously Ryan waited for Jason to make his next move.[/I][/COLOR][/SIZE]

OOC: I added in two Rocket Warriors to my deck. [COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1][I]Ryan's anger was seething at the two opposing boys. Their strength seemed insurpassable to Aidian's and his own. The Devil Token that was in play was obviously very dangerous but yet something didn't seem right about it. Ryan's question was soon answered when the boy's Life Points dropped to 1300.[/I] "Due to Devil Sanctuary's effect I must pay 1000 life points as an upkeep for my token. I think its rather good though since I can wipe you two out without even lifting a finger, so go ahead angel boy and summon your big scary Apophis. You'll just screw yourself.." "Enough you pin headed redneck! How about I show you what true fear is when I run you and your sorry deck into the ground with my god card!!!!!!" [I]Ryan said in such a manor that Aidian looked like he was about to back away in fear. Smirking though Ryan knew that he'd have to wait awhile before Apophis would rise and win them the duel. It was still pig-face boy's turn and he looked obviously happy.[/I] "I summon Melkid the Four-Faced Beast in attack mode and then I play this! Nightmare Steelcage!!" [I]Ryan was a little put out by this move but it didn't matter, he'd have the card out of his way soon. The other boy drew his card and smirked as well.[/I] "I now summon Injection Fairy Lily in attack mode and set one card face down and end my turn." [I]Ryan drew his card with a rather angered look on his face. The card was his Rocket Warrior.[/I] "I summon Rocket Warrior into attack mode and that gives me three monsters. You fools have just one more round to beg for mercy, for once I release Apophis from my deck there's no telling what may happen in the end!!" [I] Aidian glanced over at Ryan with a look that warned him not to be too cocky. Cautiously drawing his card Aidian nodded and then grinned.[/I] "I've just drawn one of the strongest cards in my deck! Now prepare for this!! I remove my Archfiend Soldier and Reflect Bounder to Special Summon my Chaos Soldier-Messenger Of Creation!!!" [I]At this a soldier that appeared to be the Black Luster Soldier appeared but it had a more confident look on its face.[/I] "I now activate my monster's special ability and remove your stupid Injection Fairy Lily from the field so that I dont' have anything to really worry about. I then end my turn by placing one card face down." [I]The pig faced boy took his turn, his face then turned into one of pure ugliness.[/I] I offer my partner's Strike Ninja and my Melkid for this!! MASKED BEAST DEATH GUARDIUS!!!" [I]Ryan now felt his stomach falling head long into his feet and just staying there as he found himself staring down one really sinister looking monster.[/I] "I now end my turn." [I]The other boy drew his next card and snickered with happiness[/I] "I summon my Goblin Attack Force in attack mode and end my turn!!" [I]Ryan closed his eyes and quietly hopped that he had Apophis as his next card. Slowly opening his eyes Ryan about wanted to gag, he hadn't drawn Apophis, in fact he'd only drawn another Marshmallon.[/I] "I'll play this card face down and end my turn." [I]Aidian drew his card and smiled slightly at what he drew.[/I] " I play the magic card Cost Down and discard Helping Robo for Combat and sacrafice Ryan's Rocket Warrior for Dark Magician!! I now activate Chaos Soldier's effect and remove your stupid Masked Beast from play! Meaning you don't even get its darn effect! I now end my turn meaning that your stupid Cage is no more!" [I]At this the cage disappeared with a holographic hiss and the piggy boy looked at his token, Ryan then realized he'd payed another 1000 for the token leaving him with only 300 life points.[/I] " I can no longer use my Devil Token meaning its destroyed. But I do play this! Slate Warrior in attack mode!!" [I]A large monster with a yellow torso and blue face appeared but it still looked pitiful to the large force Ryan and Aidian had mounted against the two boys. The other boy took his turn and placed one monster face down and then it was Ryan's turn, his card was what he'd been waiting for, Apophis.[/I] "All right you fools! I sacrafice both of my Marshmallons and Aidian's Dark Magician for this! Apophis The God Of Dragons in attack mode!! Arise my great beast!!!!!!" [I]The similar pentagram appeared and Apophis landed with a massive thud on the pier and let out a massive roar at the two boys who nearly seemed to piss their pants. [/I] "Now my beast! Attack piggy boy's Slate Warrior! Now Zeraato wipe out the other's Goblin Attack force!!" [I]The pig faced boy fell down to his knees in anguish as his life points dropped to zero and the other's dropped to a measly amount. Aidian soon finished him off with his Chaos Soldier and Magician. After gathering their one locator card from the boys Ryan and Aidian walked off towards the card vendor. Grabbing his pack Ryan tore into it and was surprised with what he got. Queen Of The Blue Rose Cherry Blossom Ninja-Ultra Rare Chains Of A Demon Crazed Goldfish The Wandering Scientist Being rather pleased Ryan slid the cards into his briefcase and looked at Aidian who had just slid his cards into his case as well.[/I] "Well, shall we go get something to eat??" [I]Aidian nodded as the two walked off towards a small cafe by the hotel.[/I][/COLOR][/SIZE]

[COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1]Well I saw Astro boy replaced SD Gundam, I'm sad to say it but good riddance to SD. I mean yes I loved the chibiness of the gundams and such, but they kept repeating the series, and I darn well know there are more than that many episodes, that had to be at least only 20ish and there are freaking 49 episodes, I want to know what happened to CNs quality of brining us new episodes and not continually repeating episodes two and three times in a month. I mean look what they did to Yu-Yu Hakusho, the DVDs are ahead more than CN is letting on. I was extremely angered when they brought Dragon Ball Z back to the TV. That jus annoys the crap out of me, I mean for god's sake if you're going to air the episodes THAT WE'VE ALREADY SEEN 10-20 TIMES DO IT ON SATURDAYS! *pants* I wish that CN would at least try to cater to their more older watchers and stop putting everything on the weekends, I mean for crying out loud it isn't that hard at all. All in all I'm very disappointed with some of the series airing choices CN has made. [/SIZE][/COLOR]

[QUOTE=ArgolisDragon] Domon: Jackal lock and Yata-lock are nothing new to the game. Too many high level monsters whether it be the Chaos Black Magician or the Jackal Knight. Your monsters will never stay on the field long enough versus a rush, control, chaos, or aggro deck. You can't go for a Yata-lock when its only support is Delinquent Demon Duo. As it stands, the current standard for monster removal in a deck is five. Rai, Black Hole, Twilight Zone Female Warrior, Mercenary Troop, and Clan Virus, and someone with a creative mind would add Calling Reinforcements to thin their deck and get either Twilight Zone Female Warrior or Merc Troops. You have 3 w/o the the Calling Reinforcements, control players will Spirit Reaper yo butt ^^. I don't understand the Cyber Pod in a lock deck, but that's because it has nothing to do with this deck. Fiber would be better. By the looks of it, you have WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY too many monsters. Your hand will get clogged with monsters even though you can only normal summon one per turn, and not enough m/t to blow enemy set cards away and remove monsters. Needs some tweaking. I'll give it a 37% if I was grading it. Knows the game and major cards, just can't make a decent deck out of them yet. Knows how to base a deck on theme, but not effectively just yet.[/QUOTE] Well, like I stated in my post its a prototype, it still has bugs in it, that is why I only asked for suggestions. Unfortunately I don't have Exiled Force, or Reinforcements Of The Army, most people I know don't run Spirit Reaper anymore due to IOC being out at the moment. But anyways thanks for the suggestions.

[COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1]I have a quesion about Drillago from IOC. If my opponent summons an Injection Fairy Lily and doesn't attack with her and I summon a Drillago on my turn and declare an attack and my opponent powers Lily up, would Drillago's attack then be a direct attack since it states that if my opponent controlls a monster with an attack of 1600 or more Drillago may attack directly.[/SIZE][/COLOR]
