Alright, let's get dis show on the road.


The prestigious Chaos Academy, located deep in the mountains of Colorado, in the underground city of Dimensional Anchor. Many duelists seek to enroll and follow in the footsteps of the Chaos Commanders, legendary wielders of decks from the Different Dimension. The academy accepts anyone who can pay tuition, testing their skills before assigning them dormitories. They say the best students can get recruited directly into Team Chaos, while the worst students might disappear while wandering the ever-shifting halls. Whether for wealth, fame, power, or freedom, you stand at the door to the academy today!

Chaos Academy will be an ongoing RP. All you need to become a player is a character sheet, a deck, and some fancy typing skills. Forum rp in general works with many players writing the story. I will be acting as a storyteller, writing the setting that the players ultimately interact and live in.

General Rules:

1: Don't roleplay other player's actions for them. It's okay to play a monster and attack someone. It's not okay to play a monster and attack someone, wiping out their lifepoints as they watch helplessly. Also, when describing yourself or talking, don't use lines like 'your character feels fearful of my red bloody eyes' or 'you can't help but feel attracted to me' as the character you're referring to might think red is cool or that you're ugly as sin.

2: Play nice. This is a silly forum rp on a silly yugioh forum. Just try to have fun!

3: Arbitration. Obviously once characters start interacting with each other, duels will break out, or other fights may happen. After some discussion with Sabbaticus, we will resolve these conficts in a neutral way that doesn't involve having to actually play out duels. There will be a 'Chaos dice' rolling option, similar to the Destiny Board. Each player simply rolls before the conflict is resolved, and then roleplays out the situation according to the result. If the players tie, then the duel or fight will end in a tie as well.

4: You are not Yugi. Nor are you Kaiba, Joey, Yusei, Crow, Jaden, or whoever the dweeb in Zexal is.
- No anime characters. There are alot of anime people so if you share some obscure name I won't fault you, but no one is allowed to obviously be a famous anime character rip-off.
- No gods, demons, saviours of the world, ancient evils, legendary heros or the like. Make someone that would have a reason to apply to a prestigious academy! Aspiring heros and villains are welcome.

Character and Roleplay Rules:

1: Make a character! Making a character is fairly simple. Under each person's Profile there is now a Character Sheet option for everyone to fill out character name, description, background and deck. You can also post your character in the character design thread, but the character in your profile is who you should be playing right now. That way anyone can click on a person and see who they are.

2: Make a deck! Making a deck will be a tad more complicated then just citing a decktype for this thread's purposes. In the Yugioh anime, cards are much rarer then we're used to on ygopro and this will be no exception! The room on your profile is for posting either a picture or a list of your 40 card deck and your extra, as well as a 15 card side deck that will represent extra techs your character sometimes switches in and out of their deck. For this rp, here are the restrictions:

- No more then 1 copy of any card. The only exception is cards that summon other copies of themselves, such as Nimble Momonga or Hyena.
- Staple cards do not exist. Rare and valuable cards such as Dark Hole, Heavy Storm, Black Luster Soldier and others aren't available to the commonfolk. Anything on the Banned, Limited or Semi-Limited list, as well as some other former staple cards are off-limits. The only exception is Monster Reborn, which apparently everyone has.
This list is not all inclusive but includes:
Mystical Space Typhoon, Dimensional Prison, Royal Decree, Fissure, Smashing Ground, Soul Taker, Compulsory Evacuation Device, Dust Tornado, Fiendish Chain, Trap Hole, Night Beam, Sakuretsu Armor, Magic Cylinder, Raigeki Break, Dark Bribe, Hammer Shot, Seven Tool of the Bandit. I will continue adding generic destruction cards to this list as they come up. This list is not retroactive. The point of not using staples is not to just use the next closest card as a staple guys.
- You may only have 3 cards in your Extra deck. Your extra deck monsters should be treated like a mighty creature that will totally wreck the opponent, you're doomed now Yugi! If too many people pick the same monsters I will rearrange people to have different ones. Alternatively, you can use 5 Fusion monsters, other then 'Elemental Hero + Attribute' fusions.
- You must include some type of card that does damage to both players, such as Destruction Ring, in order for tie situations to happen.
- Try to stay on theme! If your decktype says 'Warriors Toolbox' I expect a bunch of warrior cards. If it says 'Chaos Butterflies' I expect to see Chaos monsters (besides the restricted ones) and Butterflies. Random good but out of theme monsters, spells and traps will be frowned upon.

Remember that duels will be following Anime Rules (tm). If you run a stupid situational combo card, you will draw it exactly when you need it. You will always topdeck the card you want. Diamond Dude will always hit a spell. Witch of the Black Rose will always draw a monster. You will always get Hero Kid with Reinforce Truth, summoning 3 Hero Kids from your deck to sacrifice for Destiny Hero Plasma/Moisture Creature/whatever. And you will never draw a hand of 3 Hero Kids instead, unless you really feel like rping losing.

3: Make an application post! This will be an in character post, in this thread, of your character's application to join Chaos Academy. The letter will be in this format:

Quote :

Name:
Gender:
Location: ((Where your character is applying from, if they trecked directly to CEA to apply their location is Dimensional Anchor))
Deck:
Reason for Application: ((Whatever your character would write as his reasons for wanting to be accepted into the Academy))
Comments: ((This can be left blank if you wish))[/b]

Once enough applications are in, I will update with a list of who the players are. Anyone approved moves to https://chaosera.forumotion.net/t1184-chaos-academy-testing-lobby#8632 and posts an introductory post for themselves after having just entered the academy and been sent by the nice receptionist lady to the tester's lobby.

((There's no problem with being a different gender character. Your character's location can't be in CEA, as they are applying to get into CEA in the first place! You can come up with a name for your former Academy later, or just leave it nameless if you want. You won't be able to play as her though until you complete character creation and make your deck!))

Just a question - can I use custom cards?

Uhm, I'm going to say no to start. It would be a pain to keep track of everyone's custom cards and approving them right away.

Fair enough, what about anime/manga cards?

Regardless, I'm going to submit my character info -

Name: Drake Steele
Gender: Male
Location: Ra Yellow Dorm, Northwestern Academy
Deck: Constellar
Reason for Application:
1. I dropped out of Northwestern Academy because I couldn't keep up with all their crazy demands.
2. I'm too lazy to get a real job
3. I've got nowhere else to go
4. I heard you guys took in good duelists, and I'm gonna be the very best!
Comments: I hate Mondays...

EDIT: On second thought, only being able to use 1 of each card and having an extra deck of 3 cards limits the deck WAY too much so I'll decide to drop till further notice.

If it's available on YGOPRO you can use it, as long as it follows the other rules. I reserve the right to say if something anime is too powerful because some of them are dumb cards. <_<

Here's a copy of what i had planned of my character to be :

cecko0o0o0o0o0 wrote:

Name : cecko / The Great One

Age : 16 .. 16th .. has been living since the 16th century

Dorm : None

Deck : From the time his heroes have evolved : Hero Beat / Hero Drain / Dimensional Heroes / Flame Heroes / Miracle Gemeni Heroes / Debris Heroes / Drain Hero / Hero Burn etc ..

Personality :

During the 16th century a group of expert scientist were working on a top secret project ( X ) which would have changed the world . Among them was our main hero - cecko . Afther years of work , it was finally ready . It looked like a mechanical wordrobe with buttons , though built with alien material found on the planet . It was a time machine . The only problem was testing it . So as you may guess , cecko was the first volunteer . Everything was going very well with the test , but suddenly , a miscalculated time portal opened sucking him and the time machine in for eternity . Now he had acces to every time and place in the planet . But he was forever cursed to be imortal . Over the years he became mad . Then started reading lots of books . And thats how he got to the academy . Is also well - known as The Great One , as he has saved the world several times with his time travel abilites .

Appearance :

Looks like Yondaime .

Now , how am I supposed to be playing the awesome neutrall "Great One " and run a Elementla Hero deck , with no straples , 1x Alius and every 1 of the main cards of the other types i have choosen ? Even the Idea of runinning a Hero deck with 3 extra deck cards denies it self . I guess choosing such a deck will definetly mean i'll have to run from each one of Jaden's normal cards ( including 1x of every polymerization) just to manage 40 cards .Excluding any type of Light / Hero Beats .
Also rolling a die to see how a duel plays out , are you serous ? Why would we make decks , if we're not using them to settle bussines between characters .Or are we running dialogue duels ?
Maybe you should also allow banned cards , because in th there is no ban list in the anime .
Another thing i do not see here , is how we will comunicate . Because obvously it will only be done in this thread .

P.S. Do not count this as an apply for the RP , because it's obvous i'm not going to play Heroes . I will post an apply if / afther I get an aswer to the questions above .

Um you might want to make a list of cards we cannot use. Otherwise just don't add anime cards at all.

To answer your question, you are running dialogue duels. That's how RPing works. If we were actually playing out the duels it wouldn't be roleplaying, it would be plain old playing yugioh. That's how you'll communicate as well, by talking in the RP thread as your character and roleplaying out his actions.

Making a hero deck that incorporates all those strategies would be pretty anime actually. "The Penultimate Hero Deck That Does Everything (tm)" I think in your case I would roleplay as if the "Great One" had left many of his cards in hiding to apply in secret to the academy, pretending to be an ordinary student, so naturally he would have to restrict himself.

No, I'm not allowing banned cards. In the anime banned cards are rare and mighty cards that only one copy exist of. If they were allowed then everyone would want them.

Darkanen, no you may not create your own cards. Just cards on ygopro please.

That would take forever. >_> To get an idea of my expectations: Things like Pegasus's support cards for Toons are okay. Things like Bakura's spell that makes all your slots magic and trap slots are not okay. Also no alternate anime win condition cards or cards that can do like 10000 damage to someone.

Name: Leona Kuroda
Gender: Female
Location: Natsugi (A town almost isolated in the mountains. It has few tourists and few inhabitants ever leave their hometown. Therefor their ways of living are often described as "ancient".)

**Decklist will be in my Profile**

Name: The Stig
Gender: Unknown
Location: Unknown
Deck: Monster Mash
Reason for Application: Unknown
Comments: None

Oh yes, before I forget: There will be opportunities given to pick up new cards for your decks during rp, which includes banned or limited cards that fit your decktype. You still aren't likely to find all the staples laying on the ground though.

Name: Ralfe Descabil
Gender: Male
Location: Dimensional Anchor
Deck: Feral Shadows
Reason for Application: To learn and duel other styles. To find his mother.
Comments: This will be interesting, hopefully it's going to be fun. Finished writing my character's background.

EDIT - I've edited my character's deck and took out the ones mentioned on the new ban list. I sense a lot of editing in the future. lol

Name: Hako
Gender: Male
Location: Dimensional Anchor
Deck: Warriors of the Rock
Reason for Application: looking for fun
Comments: Deck will be in character sheet

Name: Calx Crownguard
Gender: Male
Location: Demacia
Deck: Noble Gems
Reason for application: to learn strategy to help his country with the war while playing the game he loves.
Comments: Deck on character sheet - deck finished

Alright, I updated the list of non-banned staples that aren't allowed as well as specificying what I expect out of themes. I noticed people are throwing Smashing and Fissure into everything. :V We want less generic cards that do things and more ridiculous combinations!

Shadow Server, in my deck, I use Stardust Dragon, but can I use Flashing Carat Dragon instead?

Darkanen: Yes, that's fine. Take Stardust out of your picture, and add Flashing Carat Dragon - Stardust in text on your decklist

P.S. Since I actually decided on Heroes and they'r mainly based on extra deck card(s) , i'd like to have atleast 5-7 extra deck .

You can have 3 ^_^/
Alternatively you can have 5 Fusion monsters as long as none of them are the 'Elemental Hero + Element' monsters. Just for you. Also Reason for Application is not a field you may leave blank. Especially since I'm curious why the Great One is applying.
