At first the Archaeology Team thought they had found another ancient Mead Hall, which although interesting and a good experience for the younger diggers, wasn't anything unusual to find in Northern Europe. The find, however, became significant when a staircase, leading into a long unlit corridor with strange images on the walls, was found. These images resisted any attempt by the Archaeologists to translate or understand them, until one of their young interns pointed out that one of the bigger ones 'kinda looks like Gem Knight Crystal'.

From there things moved fast; Egyptologists were flown in, and were quick to confirm that these ruins, like those back in Egypt, were linked to the Duel Monsters trading card game. Maximilian Pegasus, knowing first hand that ancient ruins connected to his trading card game could very well contain something dangerous and powerful, promptly purchased the dig site, called off the teams of researchers, and sent in a handful of elite duelists to explore. All time greats in the dueling world, such as Yugi Muto, Seto Kaiba, Jaden Yuki, as well as several contemporary duelist champions, all set off to explore the ruins at Pegasus' invitation. None of them have been heard from since.

Desperate to see whatever is at the bottom of the dungeon contained and controlled, Pegasus did something that he hadn't done in years; He called a tournament, a contest to explore and conqueror the dungeon. Now eager young duelists flock to what has been named Duelist Dungeon, hoping to earn fame, glory (and the one hundred million dollar grand prize), and prove themselves better than the dungeon that has claimed so many who have tried before...

What is this?

Duelist Dungeon is a character driven game that will combine good role play, dungeon crawling, and of course children's card games. The Dungeon Crawl elements will be carried out on the forums, RP either on the forums or on IRC, and the duels on DevPro.

The story is set 30 years after GX in an alternate Yu-Gi-Oh! universe where Synchro and XYZ monsters have been introduced as regular old cards with no specific plot significance. Cards stated to be exceedingly rare in Yu-Gi-Oh! or GX have since received numerous re-prints, and can be easily obtained. Some cards will have plot significance and extreme rarity, but I will choose which cards do from the cards that my players don't start with.

This game will be run by Myself, Weirdsound, and my equally weird sounding brother nuclearwhale. Players will mainly be selected by the coolness of their backstory, but since we have two GMs, we can have more players than the average game.

Character Sheet:

Age:
Appearance: (Submit a picture please, text description is optional)

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Banned Card Rules:
-We will use the TCG Advanced Format Ban list, but each player is allowed exactly 1 banned card in their deck. If you try pulling some stupid FTK loop, we will respond with GM shenanigans. Please note that this does not apply to us.

Deck Construction Procedure:
1: Start with an actual existing structure deck or starter deck. This will be referred to as your base deck.
2: Clean out additional banned cards. If your base deck contains more than 1 currently banned card, you must swap out banned cards for non-banned cards of your choice until you only have 1 banned card in your deck. You must swap out banned cards for cards of the same general type: main deck monsters for main deck monsters, spells for spells, traps for traps, and extra deck monsters for extra deck monsters.
3: Repeat step two for any limited cards that you have more than 1 of, or any semi limited card you have more than 2 of.
4: If your base deck is at least 5 years old and includes no extra deck cards, you may gain either 4 Xyz Monsters of your choice, or 3 Tuner Monsters and 2 Synchro monsters of your choice.
5: Then gain some additional cards. If your base deck is a starter deck, you gain 4 extra cards of your choice, +2 extra cards of your choice for every three years old your base deck is in real life. If your base deck is a structure deck, you gain 2 extra cards of your choice, +1 extra card of your choice for every two years old your base deck is in real life.
6: After performing steps 1-5, if you have less than 50 cards that can go into your main deck, you may gain level 3 or lower normal monsters of your choice, each with a different name, until you have 50 cards that can go into your main deck.
7: Assemble your final deck from the cards you have started with. Your final deck must include at least 40 cards in the main deck, and no more than 15 in the extra deck. Respect the limited and semi-limited list.

PTW, already in a game, but if push comes to shove I could try to double play.

By the way, why'd you make the deck building process so complicated?

By the way, why'd you make the deck building process so complicated?

We made the deckbuilding process complicated in an attempt to make the older decks as good as the new ones. If we let you take the structure decks as is, the newer decks would have a clear advantage, and we want an even playing field. We want someone who picks Dragons Roar to be just as good as someone who picks Cyber Dragon's Revolution. Its not perfect of course, but we can't let you choose your decks from scratch, because we want there to be a progression, and we think this is the best way to do it.

I'll...consider.

[darkpaladin109]

Hmmm, I'l consider as well.

Posting to play.

I'm trying to find a good music or sound themed archetype or at least series that I could try to work into a structure deck or something.

Any ideas?

Try these guys. As Xyzs they can go into pretty much any deck with the right level of monsters.

So, does 'normal monsters' in step 6 mean they can't be effect monsters, or they can't be fusion/synchro/Xyz etc.?

Ptw will make char later


Also is banned card include anima cards?

As far as I'm aware, there are no non-effect synchro/xyz monsters under level 3 so it shouldn't even come up, unless you plan on using a non effect fusion that is level 3 or under. Nevertheless, I just checked with Wierdsound, who says they don't count.

You can't use anime cards for several reasons, which I will not delve into here because I am typing on my phone. You can find the official ban list here: http://www.yugioh-card.com/en/limited/

I just meant, do we have to take shit like Baby Dragon or can I take more Six Samurai cards?

Shit like baby dragon. Bad stuff can happen in the dungeon. Cards can get lost or stolen or destroyed. Those filler cards are just to make sure you can still field a 40 card deck if you get unlucky early on. I wouldn't recommend putting them in your deck under normal circumstances.
