Yugioh Stars Concept #5: thinking on antagonists and ruminating on the heroes' parade

In a few days im gonna start posting ideas and stuff for the more or less main antagonist group of my oc yugioh oc, so lets start it off with some text stuff on it. here's a very rough concept for the main mooks for now. Consider it tentative art as i wanna redraw them with my current skills.

Their name is the Karman Acolytes. Their name is inspired by the karman line, the definition that is the unofficial (as in widely but not used by all) definition for the 'edge of space' or the point where the atmosphere 'stops,' to roughly put it. Their garb is vaguely black hole themed too cause it looks cool haha.

More details under the line obviously.

Lurking in the shadows cast by Kirakira City's past is the mysterious group known as the Karman Acolytes. A strange and shady organization that lie beneath notice until summoned, all for their mysterious goal.

"Expand the world. Expand our universe. Expand to paradise itself."

Their goals seem to be linked with the acquirement of special cards created through unknown methodss, the Planet NEXT cards. Rumors has it that the reason is to power up an unknown engine to recreate or even destroy the world.

Their leader is the elusive Sol, and they populate the city without any notice unless summoned/ordered for a mission, in which case they abandon their normal lives and submit themselves under the thrall of the Acolyte's mission. It's as if they're brainwashed, or worse, cult members...

The uniforms pictured above are for the lower rank foot soldiers, the Pupils. Often personalized throughout each member with small flourishes, but this is the general uniform for the grunts that follow each Planet Holder. The colors of their coat highlights and mask shape change depending on their squad.

As for the Planet Holders...what defines one? In short, the Planet NEXT card will only activate with few users, depending on random attributes in order to solidify during a duel. Perhaps there's something wrong with the construction of these cards... (so claim the scientists, but others believe that these cards choose their wielders).

A Planet Holder in the eyes of the Karman Acolytes, however, are those who willingly side with their goal. As such, just because you hold a card doesn't make you automatically one of the Acolytes. Issue is, They rather perfer it to be that way, so woe to those who randomly get the lucky draw, bond with it, and then either swayed by or crushed by these guys.

They also are rumored to grant special powers to their wielders. A strange boon to be sure, perhaps born out of the frequency energy these cards emit (or maybe the spirits gave them their powers but who believes in that). In order:

Mercury: Energy related, often results in being gifted with technology and being used as an easy power source with risk of overheating. A glorified energy bank, and even then not really its intended usage...

Venus: Emotion related, sort of a buff onto eithers, can either increase or lower mood. Perfect to ease tensions or to induce riots.

Earth: Mind related. the power of absolute remembrance. What that means, remains to be seen. Lost due to an incident.

Mars: Power amplification. The apex of your body, your soul, pushed to the limit. Could risk your mental health. No one has been able to activate this card yet...

Jupiter: Mind related: Memory control. Simple masses can either remember you were there the whole time, or not at all. A simple parlor trick. It's user is currently rogue and planning on destroying Karman.

Saturn: The power of destruction. Nothing more than a tool to obliterate anything in sight, a simple gun. However, and this applies to all cards, the user can influence the 'limits' of what a card can push. If you can erase something, what and how "much" can you erase?

Uranus: Body control, often used to 'freeze' people in place against their will when applied. Easy to manipulate others like a puppet if you dare.

Neptune: Emotion related: the power of allure. Can seduce others through simple words. In layman's terms: simple mind control. Depends on the minds but one can often pull it off if you distract them while activating the power, such as, i dunno, singing a song...

Those are the main cards. There's a dwarf planet card, and satellite cards, as well as a rumored Sun card, but those are the main ones key to Karman's mission.

how far would they go for their glorious purpose, and what will await them at the end of the line?

Who knows...Perhaps Sol knows...

Yugioh Stars Characters #17 Supporting Cast: Hiro Mitsuhide

"Hope you enjoyed your time under the spotlight, Hide. It's my turn."

Name: Masahiro "Hiro" Mitsuhide

Age: 15-18

Occupation: 1st year back at yuji's home town high school [tentative] -> transfer to 3rd year Nexus Tech

Deck: Samurai related, screw it give him a superheavy samurai

Duel Disk: KC Duel Disk v.9 -> Nexus Tech Nextech Duel Disk

Likes: dueling, being the best (among his friend group and even then...), Fame, an old show he and Yuji watched together, gyudon

Dislikes: small town boredom, inability to act on desires, being shown up, old friends showing him up...

One of Yuji's friends back home, geeking out about the field of dueling. cocky and self-assured of his dueling skills, so it isnt surprising that Yuji got accepted into one of the top places that HE wanted to be in, which slightly grinds his gears a bit. Somewhat. It bothers him a lot. However, later in the story, he reappears as a Nexus Tech student, and he seems he wants a proper match between him and Yuji...

a bit of a prick whenever he wins a game.

[soutakuphi]

Yugioh Stars Characters #16: Rivals re-done: #6: 'Siren Melody'

"Everybody! Listen to my spell and sing along!" (As Siren Melody),

"I still got a lot of life left in me. I'm going to push this until I'm number 1, just like we promised."

Actual Name: Mikasa "Mika" Shiren

Age: 17-19

Occupation: Duel Idol singer, Nexus Tech Institution

School year at first appearance: 3

Deck: music and sea themed, tentative title Wave Sirens

Duel Disk: Nexus Tech Nextech Duel Disk

Likes: singing, writing down stuff in her book, the sea, Nexus Tech's life mission, keeping her promise...

Dislikes: working in the idol industry, the sponsors, hospitals, her ill body

Alternative Career: There is no 'alternative,' Se has to do this to keep her promise! huh, deja-vu...

Frequently summoned/Ace monster: Wave Siren Nep Tune

Card Holder of: Neptune Planet NEXT Card

The most popular newest Duel Pop sensation that appeared on the spot and has swept the competition in a wave of amazing music, Siren Melody is here! Once active in the underground scene, enrollment in Nexus Tech has skyrocketed her popularity to the point where she's an household name. As such, whenever she goes out in public, she hides her identity under the name "Shion" (which was her old idol name but no one cares enough to put 1 and 1 together...). It helps that her pesonality off the clock isn't the same: bubbly and cheerful on the stage, lax and serious otherwise. Both however showcase her love for singing, a skill that is at risk of losing forever due to her illness. Has a close connection to Kenta and Willard for some reason...

ask her during a show and she'll claim that its a magical eye given to her by the goddess of music but ask her off the clock and she'll traumadump on you if you have the time, her bone itis is at max right now

[soutakuphi]

Yugioh Stars Concept #5: some defined eye ideas

Honestly i was in the mood to try my hand at some eye rendering and decided to use the Stars main group as my test subjects for more detailed eyes.

Nothing much to stand out, other than the obvious 'alt' version for the main trio. Yuji's is a secret sssssh, Jun is fairly obvious cause clearly thats the Witch and not Jun as the red one, and for Kenta imagine the green determination light from Ippo and thats basically it.

[soutakuphi]

fine-tuning the dynamic of the main three amigos of my yugioh oc idea is very funny considering how they started off as. the main concept was and still remains as a dork in a school of elite, but its funny to remember that yuji was more outwardly goofy and nerding out about his favorite stuff, Jun was outwardly more expressive, more 'rich girl with a heart of gold' leaning with a touch of occult obsession, and Kenta was the aloof rival who doesnt need no friends darn it, he fought his way to the top

Now look at them.

[soutakuphi]

Ma there's a weird looking witch outside the house.

haven't drawn her in a while, it's the oc yugioh duel monster card and partner in crime for Jun herself, Calamity Coven Firestarter. she and her friends were posted here a while ago and i felt like drawing her up again. For her and any other OC monster cards i might just draw them and not touch up their designs...more or less.

I did change her up a tiny bit...

Yugioh Stars Characters #15 Supporting Cast: Nexus Tech Chairman

tentative art but still wanted to draft a concept for him

"Brave heart, young man! I'm quite sure you'll figure it out someday."

Name: Chairman Newton

Age: Pretty hearty for someone in his 60s

School: Chairman of Nexus Tech Institution

Likes: nurturing the unseen talent in people, teasing people, sour things, being easily impressed, technology and how it can benefit people, astrology, coffee

Dislikes: He likes and respects everyone he meets.

The chairman of Nexus Tech, who considers himself part of the 'old guard' to raise and nurture the next generation. He recalls the incident that devastated Pelican Dice-cho, and is determined to makes ure Kirakira City and its next generation can stand firm against anything. Mr. SHINE hates him with a dazzling passion because he thinks Newton stole his barber. Newton treats him with the same professionalism he always has but time to time leans on their 'rivalry' to poke fun at him

His hair looks familiar, hmm.
