It's the instructors, for the most part, driving the buses.

Just a quick inquiry. Did my opening post not leave enough room to do anything? Did I not describe enough? I never described a fountain.

Yu-Gi-Oh Soul R (Still Accepting)

I don't remember what 5Ds did, but all the parts did more or less the same thing. Level, Numbers, Scale, etc.

Yu-Gi-Oh Soul R (Still Accepting)

Oh look. The IC is up. I left a lot of room in the post for people to jump in. Describe your character in the airport or train station, on the bus, and at the school. Or not. It's all on you.

TURN 1

Sitting in the Pacific Ocean, an archipelago, 377,972.28 km2 large. From around the world, students flew, mostly on separate flights from wherever their homes were to Haneda Airport in Tokyo City Japan. It was not uncommon, of course, for students from around the same area to have met in the airport, or to have perhaps even met each other prior to even going to the school. In waves, students were flown into the airport.

Waiting outside the terminals, stood a man who appeared as if he would rather not be there. His eyes were wandering and if one looked closely enough, it could be noticeable that he was actually simply looking at all the girls passing through the airport. In one hand, he held a cup from one of the restaurants in the airport. In the other hand, a sign which read "SAOTOME DUEL SCHOOL" in both English and Japanese, speakers of other languages be damned. He was well dressed in a suite with a top hat, roughly in his late twenties. His facial structure, green eyes and brown hair were distinctly non-Japanese, and speaking English, he had an American accent. He introduced himself as Mr. O'Dell to his male students, though as Daniel to the females, students or not.

Students who were closer had the option of taking the train, which took about the same time, though with a slightly more scenic view with a few more stops along the way. Awaiting at the train station was an older man dressed in a black suit and tie, hat covering his head, noticeably bald when he picked it up to scratch. He appeared very old, roughly in his sixties if one were to guess. This man introduced himself as Mr. Inoue, and reeked of cigarette smoke. He also had a sign, signalling to students of the school.

The students were rounded up by these two instructors as well as the other students who had arrived earlier and managed to find the instructors. And once everybody was ready, they had left. The instructors, Mr. O'Dell and Mr. Inoue lead their groups into buses which they drove towards the school proper, the ride from the train station being much shorter. For those students heading from Tokyo, however, the trip was almost four hours between rolling hills, city scape, and as they approached, farm land.

The long bus rides allowed the students to get acquainted with one another, sharing phone numbers, emails, and the like as well as simply talking about where they came from if they spoke at all.

---

Filling in paperwork was relatively quick. After which, students were shown their rooms, picked based on their chosen major based on classes and preferences which they had already picked prior to arriving at the school.

The rooms themselves were spartan, single bedrooms with one twin-sized bed, an end table with a lamp, a wooden desk, a wooden chair, a small closet jutting out of the corner, and a sink next to the door. There was a window between the bed and the closet, the view depending on where the student's room was. The dorms each had two shower rooms- one for males and one for females, and one laundry room. That day, the students were all given freedom to roam the campus as they so chose, with of course, more free time to those who had arrived earlier on in the day.

The dorm buildings were all clearly marked with a statue of their dorm's mascot at the side of each of them. Nestled between the dorms and the cafeteria was a large courtyard garden area, several canopies interspersed between walkways and patches of freshly cut grass. Most of which were large open areas lined with tables and chairs, space left in the middle probably for individuals to duel one another.

For the most part, students had the day to settle in.

@Satoshi Kyou

Duel bike might be fun- I wouldn't be opposed to it. Though, I wouldn't expect to go first against proper D-wheels.

@Scarifar

It's not too surprising. There are a lot of strategies that don't need the extra deck. There are also more xyz monsters than any of the other extra deck types.

Also I added a map of the school to the OP.

Yu-Gi-Oh Soul R (Still Accepting)

Random question that won't likely be relevant for some time. For what position monsters are placed in in terms of 1-5 for the purposes of needle wall, will it function like games where it goes 3,2,4,1,5 (I think) or 1-5 or just whatever place the owner decides?

@Eklispe

While Konami did try to make zones a thing, there really isn't any rule that says you can't freely move around where your monsters are. Even cards such as Ojama King and Ghostrick Socuteboss, really do more to limit the amount of monster zones.

I still do want to open the floor to zone control just in case some steely eyed new comer looks at the game and decides that's what he/she wants, so I'm going to say zones are, if the situation calls for it, labeled 1-5 from the player's left to right.

@Scarifar

I've said it like fifty times already. Duel disk blades are for the most part made of solid light. That said, your character looks alright and you can totally keep him in the character sheet section. Which I say as if anybody could move it.

@Eklispe
You're good

I have no idea whether the character was accepted or not but I will quickly make her legacy card and I think I will actually have it connected to her profession and not Madolche it'll still be an XYZ card

@Satoshi Kyou

You can make it so that your character just happens to be a local student.

Also, I'm dreaming up all the NPCs, the dorm leaders in particular.

@Thecrash20
You're good.

@Scarifar
I'll let it slide. Your character isn't a Solar Legacy holder right?

@Eklispe
I'd definitely like you to change the name.
