Name: Sikao Yuryu Sex: Male Age: 18 House: Odd-Eyes house
Appearance: Yuryu's hair is medium black with a blue-streak in the shape of three lightning-bolts running through his fringe. His eyes are dichromatic, his right eye a darker shade of blue while his right eye is blue, slowly turning a foggy-grey at the bottom of his iris. This is something that developed in his early childhood while living with his half-brother. His skin is a light shade of olive, and he stands at 5'8" tall. He often wears a blue singlet over top a black, sleeveless coat. (Artwork will be provided later)
Duel Disk: Yuryu's duel disk is very similar to the current times duel disk. Colored Black with white trim, the play field is a bright-blue, and the screen is a large circular window. The difference between Yuryu's duel disk, however, and the current is that on the surface next to the screen, an insignia of two dragons circling is embedded on the face of the duel disk. One of the dragons is shaded dark-red, while the other is a clear picture of Yuryu's "Lock Rage Dragon" card.
Personality: Yuryu takes a very serious tone to dueling, as well as towards any duelist who seeks to challenge him. Otherwise, he is quite laid back, however prefers to keep to himself, trapped in his own thoughts, rather than make conversation. He does not shy away from communicating with other duelists when the topic of becoming a better duelist arises, although he very much prefers people address him as Yuryu, as he was not raised to use his first name lightly. If annoyed or tested, he can become easily frustrated, snapping at a moment's notice at people who try to get on his bad side.
History: Raised with his father and stepmother, his late mother had left him and his father mere months after he was born, with no notice of why she left or where she went. As such, he and his half-brother lived together during their childhood. Unlike his younger brother, who was often kind and laid back, Yuryu had trouble befriending others and was easy to anger while he was little. This anger was tempered as he grew older, and although Yuryu and his brother were very different, they both had three things in common: They both loved to duel, they were both very prideful and the both HATED to lose.
One day, during his early teenage years, Yuryu had recieved a card from an unknown sender: Lock Rage Dragon. The moment he had touched this card, duel's began to play out very different, especially his brohter. He couldn't explain it, but all of a sudden his win rate shot through the ceiling. He was even offered the chance to go to The Saotome Duel Institute, a place where he could study and learn more about duel monsters. Jumping at the chance, Sikao Yuryu took the next boat off, excited to begin the next chapter of his duel monster's career.
Wish: To duel against his younger brother until the end of time.

I've said it before. I'm a little biased against dragons just because of how pervasive they are in the game, so you might be shafted when it comes to getting custom cards/support later on. I'll try to be as impartial as I can though.
I'm a little curious about your character's family; whether you want the little brother to attend the school, possibly in the next school year assuming we get there. My guess is that his biological mother is still alive. This of course might be spoiler-y to the other players, but if this is something you want to include as part of your character's story, please do PM me about it so that I can plan accordingly.
I like the over-all cohesiveness of your character's deck.
All in all though, these are just notes and I really have no problem with your character as far as it being accepted. So. Accepted.
Sorry to say I've been absurdly sick all week and unnecessarily busy besides.
We're talking 3 hours of tired consciousness, woozy-all-day runny nose fever headache levels of bleh.
That first part was probably to counterbalance my insomnia, since for some reason earlier this week, a night of uninterrupted sleep started meaning 3 hours. The rest is probably just my weak immune system. I have the constitution of a dead horse, but that's probably to be expected since I've eaten ramen daily and fruits or vegetables about twice a year over the course of a decade or so.
I don't expect to live past 40 or 50, but it's worth it.
"Gotta find a perfect theme song for this character. The last 50 songs weren't good enough, I must keep looking."
I'll be trying to post something tomorrow. For now, I'm going to sleep before the sun fully rises.

Thanks, glad to hear it.
The little brother, as far as it goes, pretty much acts as a timer for if one of my friends joins in. If he doesn't, though, then it will basically be used as char development.
Nonetheless, I can't wait to get started.
Edit: Oh yeah, just to be clear, the deck's custom cards aren't building Dragon-type as the Archetype. It will slowly build an archetype around... I guess you would call them "emotion" dragons? I searched back into similar issues, and thought I should make it clear.
Hey, @KOgaming, how can you synchro summon with a card that prevents you from special summoning at all while it's on the field?
Is that an effect of the whole "Ra's" archetype, or is it something special to the synchro, or what? Same goes for the whole tributing two monster that literally can't be tributed for effect burns thing.
Ra's Disciple is a LIGHT fairy with 1100ATK and 600DEF. The very last line of it's effect states "You cannot Special Summon monsters, except by the effect of 'Ra's Disciple'.". A quick trip to the wiki confirms that this is a continuous effect, and so is active all the time that Ra's Disciple is. He has three of them out on the field when he Synchs for Royal Guard.
Cause otherwise you'd see that card everywhere in R4nk or Frog Driver Decks, given that drawing into one means having the three of them out immediately.

Ahhh, OK. Wow, can't believe I missed that. Yeah, @KOgaming, that's an illegal move you made. You should probably fix that somehow.
