Ao3 account: zephyrdragon362 (note that any and all newer work, including mature work, is updated here. Some may be crossposted here but due to traffic and restricted guidelines, you'll find newer piece first there before here)

Notice: Since Little Shop of Mysteries has been deleted due to new guidelines, I will not be reposting cause it would be too much effort. Any other story that get taken down will be handled the same. Just because I haven't been here cause of my lack of wanting to write doesn't mean I want to see my stories being deleted where people could enjoy them. PM privileges will be open but they will be turned off if I get bothered about updates, the future of stories or why I haven't been working on them. It's about time I enforce this rule on PMs cause they were turned off for that very reason.

Notice 2: As of right now, I am going back to proofread and repost chapters for ALL stories along with moving them to my backup account on AO3. Account can be found under this name: zephyrdragon362

New and Handy Guide of Story Development:

[as always, DO NOT come to me about stories on the discontinued list until given solid reason to give up story for adoption OR if you have ideas of a future setup for the prior plot lost to time]

1. Title: - Story completed or being worked on.
2. Title: Halted - On Break until another story sees end or specific day for birthday/holiday comes along
3. Title: Ended - Has the thinnest line of chance to return with an update or summary to ending
4. Title: Ended - Discontinued due to lost plot over 7 years [i MAY make the exception to give up stories now if they will be treated well in being rewritten/finished and OCs are living to their standards that i had them. hard to do as i feel responsible to finish what i started but if you truly desire it for a sense of completion, it can be up for adoption. OCs used are optional for adopted stories]

OC characters

(can be used only if a PM is sent requesting to use them in another story other than my own)

Anime/Manga

Yu-Gi-Oh

Diamond Rose

Eye color: Persian Blue

Fur color: White

Hair color: Silver

Height: 5'4"

She's only one in many of my ocs that you may find to be the nicest. But she has her bad times. But they can rarely happen if her friends aren't in danger. Try to not harm Yugi or his friends if you do not want to invoke the wrath of a woman scorned. (may show up in more than one anime/manga or game series since she's more of a personal character that would show up in more than one due to her nature)

Ruby Jewelstone

Eye color: Carmine Red

Fur color: Burgundy

Hair color: Merlot

Height: 5'8"

Unlike Kaiba, he's one to tend to figure out things before him which makes him a capable asset to Yugi and the others. His kindness to others while being the sibling of the usually emotionless Kaiba baffled many on how they are considered related. His only weakness are found to be Kaiser and Mokuba. Threaten them and you may not live to see the light of day for a while if not permanently.

Aqua Shiras

Eye color: Crimson

Scale color: Obsidian

Hair/spines color: Dark Slate

Height: 6'0"

The first out of three original yamis and the youngest sibling of Yami despite the height difference. You do not want to mess with him. He is very possessive, especially when it concerns Yugi. Hurt him and be ready for a painful and deadly Shadow Game. You do not want to get on his bad side, ever. Never anger him either. You only have one warning before he makes a move to kill you.

Past self - Nenrion: A charmer and a flirt. Always the eye candy of many females. His heart is solely to Heba (Yugi's past self if ever seen in any of my stories other than TW which has his name serving a slightly different purpose) but he doesn't mind taking the time to flirt around with the women who don't even know he shows little to no interest in them.

Crimson Moyasu

Eye color: Venetian Red

Fur color: Coal Grey

Hair color: Dark Charcoal bordering black

Height: 5'7"

The second original yami and younger sibling of Bakura by only five minutes. He's the other half of Diamond and even though he may not show it, he cares for Diamond and if you hurt her, be aware that he will assassinate you before the day is done. Like Aqua, do not get on his bad side. He wasn't made to be a fearless Tomb Robber along with Bakura for nothing.

Toben Hamal

Eye color: Sangria Red

Fur color: Dark Saffron

Hair color: Reddish Brown

Height: 5'9"

The last of the original yamis and pretty much considered the youngest sibling to Marik. While insane, he is quite patient and tame until someone brings about a threat to his vessel. If you don't want to be sent to the Shadow Realm, don't provoke him, he will do so if it happens. Either that or make a move to hurt or take Topaz away from him. [Now comes with the innate characteristic of speaking in third person to be implemented in edited stories when able to be applied]

Jade Nefri

Eye color: Malachite

Fur color: Forest Green

Hair color: Myrtle

Height: 5'5"

A game owner and sibling to Otogi. Not much to say here except do not try to make conversations that involves Ruby, his rival. If you mention Kaiser then be ready to be interrogated. So far, he is still in a heated battle with Ruby to win Kaiser's heart but it's not going in his favor.

Sapphire Adael

Eye color: Sapphire

Fur color: Egyptian Blue

Hair color: Very dark Prussian Blue bordering black

Height: 5'8"

An ocean dweller with a big heart to match and one with the ocean. He cares for those in need of help, that's why he cared for Kajiki when he needed him the most. He will always believe with Kajiki that his father is out there and will do everything to help Kajiki find him.

Kaiser Aurum

Eye color: Olive

Fur color: Canary Yellow

Hair color: Honey-Auburn

Height: 5'7"

A happy-go-lucky male with a heart of gold and the second youngest of the Katsuya family. He may be a street punk but he gave that up once he learned about his half-sister going blind. After the Duelist Kingdom tournament that Yugi won, he, with Jou, used the money they gotten from being in second place to help with their sister's eyes. Now all he cares about now is to make sure his half-sister was safe and avoid Ruby for his feelings for the cold-hearted male may get him into a situation that he would rather not be in. Especially with Ruby and Jade going at it just to win his heart.

Atemu Moriaran

Eye color: Rust

Height: 5'6"

Hair color: Red, black and blond (straighten down and reaching to mid-back. occasionally kept in a braid to avoid it getting into stubborn knots)

The fictional older brother of Yami and a pain in the ass as far as Yami says. The two have enough fights as it is and the older said he would only recognize Yami for anything when the day he is defeated by the younger comes. Has a little attraction to Yugi but knows that Yami would fight his hardest just to make sure he isn't even within 2 feet of the small duelist.

(note on the use of Atemu's name: To lessen confusion, especially with any chapters dealing with the past of Yami and Aqua, when I use the name Atemu, if Nenrion show up anywhere, then it's Yami and Aqua in the past. If Aquarian shows, then it’s those two. Keep a close eye on the sibling's name to determine which Atemu I'm speaking of. Not only that but personality always comes into play when using one or the other if Aqua or Aquarian doesn't make an appearance somewhere in a chapter)

Aquarian Shiras

Eye color: Cardinal Red

Scale color: Midnight Black

Hair/spine color: Obsidian w/slight hue of gold

Height: 6'2"

Fictional older sibling of Aqua and just as much of a pain as Atemu. He too has an infatuation with Yugi and can be determined in his goal to capture the younger's heart. As he said many times before to Aqua: "The best in life belongs to me. If I don't get it, I aim to take it by force." He does have his manners, the problem is he doesn't show them too often.

Zira Ori

A turquoise creature that works alongside Dartz to collect souls to bring back Leviathan. But he hates Dartz for ruining everyone's life, including his and wishes to leave but his contract prevents him.

Gris (only be seen in Vigilantes)

A male Grisolke (ownership to The Dragon's Eye message boards -boards are sadly deleted-) that was sent to protect Yugi when the Night Wolf and Crimson Moon Wolf can't protect him for they have to search for the items of the moon. With strength that no one could compare to makes him a great guardian and friend to Yugi.

Topaz Valyn

Eye color: Indigo-Blue

Hair color: Ash-Brown

Fur color: Light Saffron

Height: 5'6"

A light saffron male that shares a hard past with Malik. He didn't want to become a guardian of riddles but he was forced into it and he cursed himself every time he felt the familiar weight of the collar that marked him as a guardian to the Tomb Keepers. The only one that would soothe him is Toben and he would never wished for anyone better to be by his side than him.

Sekei Resen

A dark brown male that hangs out with Dinosaur Ryuzaki. Many mistake him as a close relative to the dino duelist but he's only friends with the short-tempered duelist. Most of the time he is never seen with the other since he enters tournaments almost only a daily basis but when he is seen with Ryuzaki, he always has a witty comment for Ryuzaki or is just there to laugh at Ryuzaki's antics when in a situation of a duel he's about to lose.

Scythe

A light green colored male that is almost the splitting image of an insect, the exception that he lacked bug-like eyes and feelers, and by all means was born the same way by mysterious means. Haga found Scythe's egg when he was only a child and took care of the insectoid creature and may have gotten his love of insects from Scythe himself. But of course, with Haga taking care of him up until now, even he doesn't give his full trust to the bug duelist and when assisting in duels, he may not help out as much. Sharp scythes are hidden in the tops of his hands along with his fangs being filled with deadly venom but both these deadly weapons are rarely used.

Guest Characters

Keara - OC belonging to Kearitona Sjachraelgil. She is an ether dragon and secret guardian to Yami and Aqua, providing service to them and granting abilities with her magic. A delight to be around and very protective over those that are deserving of the Ether Dragon's protection and will allow no harm come to those under her ever watching eye.

Myrrh [now named Amaya for future stories] and Zella - OCs belonging to Victuuri 4 ever. A bunny girl [Amaya] that debuted in YnG before the reworking. While shy, she won't easily stand back from danger if she can help in some way and always makes sure to keep a bad situation from getting worse lest it goes way over her head. Second to keep Honda and Jounouchi in line when Kaiser isn't available. Her twin Zella offers assistance in keeping the guys in line and being aware to new dangers that would promote themselves later if the spirits don't sense it first.

Beyblade

Shendao Hiwatari

A powerful blader with a cold heart to follow. You never want to get on this Russian Blue male's bad side but that's kind of possible seeing as he always in a bad mood. Especially when Tyson's around. The only time you may see him at peace is when he's sleeping or hanging around Dijah, the somewhat mascot to White Tiger X and Rei's helpful tiger. His bitbeast is the Fire Eagle and it may not be as powerful as Dranzer but it is a force to be reckoned with when partnered up with said bitbeast.

Dijah Kon

Rei's friendly pet tiger and valiant blader. He's in always the confident one of the group and Shendao's only weakness. But don't take that to heart for he can fight and will protect himself if needed. His bitbeast is the Lightning Panther and its not a beast to be taken lightly. With lightning fast attacks, many could never win against such.

Sosulʹka Ivanov

Tala's only friend from what people know. He's as cold as his name describes him so it will take a lot to break through the ice fortress that he built around his emotions. His bitbeast is the Tundra Lupus and with it's Sheer Blizzard Storm attack, it will leave your blade encased in ice.

There will be more in this section but they won't be placed in til later.

Games

Star Ocean

Targe Dragoon

A Brass Dragon humanoid from the town of Surferio. Due to his rarity, he usually keeps his face and body shielded by a cloak and the only way to determine what he was is by looking at his tail which tends to peek from beneath the cloak. He was found by Fayt and stayed around him as a protector because of his interest in new worlds outside of Elicoor II. He is able to listen to monsters and if enough concentration was placed into the thought, control them but he rather fight tooth and nail than with the use of such abilities as a beast user. He is not very good friends with Albel and Furea Veil but he has come to some terms with the two.

Furea Veil

A side captain of the Black Brigade. He too is a rare breed of humanoid from Surferio but found a place within the cold mountainous regions of Airyglyph among his other brethren of Air Dragons. Until needed in dragon form, he is not someone you want to pester too much. Trained alongside the best, few can survive a severe attack from his metal claws that he found quite useful for packing an extra punch in fights with unarmed weaklings. If you can then you best not try whatever you did to anger him or you just may lose your life from his brutal and merciless attacks. You wonder why he works with Albel so much?

Megaman/Rockman X

Flazer

A red animal reploid that has the same attitude as Zero. With fast saber skills and his hyper mode, Flared Agony, he is a force to be wary of. Many would think he's a maverick but he's not and he would rather not remember when he was one.

Sharp-Shooter aka Maturi

After the incident at Red Alert, he went along with Axl to find a new home. Arriving at MHHQ, he thought they would have a chance there but it didn't look all that good for them. He was tempted to tell Axl that they should find somewhere else to go but after seeing Flazer changed his mind. Now this little blue and red sphinx reploid wants to prove himself to the unresponsive saber master but will he gain the reploid's trust like Axl did with Zero?

Airaxe

Public Enemy #1. You never want to be trapped in a dark place with this two headed chimera reploid. A confident person with a evil plot. He always wanted to take over the Hunter Base, get rid of Zero and his hyper mode (alter ego in Midnight Visitor), Absolute Zero and have Axl but will he succeed in such or get killed in the process?

MegaTen (Spoilers revealed in bios. Read with caution)

Kunda

Guardian of P3 world and Kaja's twin sister. She arose from slumber once Minato's potential showed. Now she assists SEES with defeating shadows and preventing the rebirth of Nyx at the cost of her life alongside Minato.

Kaja

Guardian of P4 and Kunda's twin brother. Second protector of the TV world alongside Teddie and became a somewhat guardian to Souji during his quest to solve the murder case. Sly and smart, he is a master at what he does best and can figure out any hidden feelings between the gang. After saving the TV world and Souji's headed back home, he stayed in Inaba with everyone else and made himself at home with Kanji Tatsumi, making a prayer at the local shrine to his sister that their home was finally restored.

The World Ends With You

Treble

A rarity among the UG. As a one of a kind chimera Noise, his power was unchecked but after being spared by the ever innocent Rhyme, it was given a human conscious and began to see the UG for what it really was. Taking on the form of an impossibly tall black haired human of 6'4", he traveled with Beat and Rhyme on their quest to be reincarnated and showed his usefulness in battle by the use of five Classes [Flight, Stealth, Power, Monster and Clone] learned from other Noise.

Zypher: There will be more as soon as I pick them out of my head from the different game and anime/manga series that I watch or play. If you would like to use any of them then you may do so. I also have a request, for those who would like to create a fic for the original characters, I will be grateful and give your credit for doing so by adding you or a character you have as part of one of my stories of your choosing. Edit: A good half of these characters are never used cause fanfiction world frowns upon useless OCs. Most familiar are YGO ones so if you have a beef with OCs, don't worry about the extended list UNLESS one appears in a fic then the bio is there but most are probably one story use if anything [cleaning up the profile so never written story OCs are off the list]

Note to anyone who actually reads this:

Zypher: Alright, as a warning, I happen to be very horrible at spotting spelling and/or grammar mistakes until after I post up the chapter and reread it when I get bored. So please, do not mention them for I wish I can smack myself for not seeing them as I write and look over them just as I do so. But if you don't care, then that's fine with me. Fear the horrible spelling and grammar errors. -evil laugh but gives up-

Just as an extra, I will explain Aqua's form a little more since I'd evolved him from the original Aqua Dragon and continued to change him as my stories, new and old, progressed. Besides, I know many of you would want to know how Aqua came to be.

1st: Aqua Dragon (Duelist of the Roses, thinner and taller)
2nd: Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon (Duelist of the Roses)
3rd: Red-Eyes Black Dragon (Duelist of the Roses) 4th: Red-Eyes Black Dragon/Winged Dragon of Ra mix (The gem and Ra's long tail are the only things you see of this form and he keeps these even after this formation)
5th: Red-Eyes Black Dragon/Bahamut (FF8) mix
6th: Red-Eyes/Bahamut mix (Bahamut similarities showing more than Red-Eyes)
7th: Red-Eyes/Tiamat (FF8) mix
8th: Red Eyes/Random Dragon (Still keeps some of the part from other forms such as Ra's gem and long tail and Bahamut's wing joint claws)(current random dragon is small elements from Meteor Black Dragon)
Current: Dragon of his own design, inspiration of Red Eyes Black Dragon to influence design choice
Secret Side Form: Red-Eyes/Timaeus (was only used during the Doom Saga after Yugi and Yami obtained Timaeus. Others secret forms include Kaiser/Hermos and Ruby/Critias)

History: After playing Duelist of the Roses for the first time and learning of the codes to gain new cards, Aqua Dragon became one of my favorites to use. When I started reading shounen-ai/yaoi stories, I came up with the character Aqua based of the Aqua Dragon from the game and it was like that for some months, then I switched his form to that of a Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon with arms and wings (cause when I look at the card picture, it look like its arms are part of his legs). That too went for a while until I obtained Red-Eyes with a different picture on its card.

At that point, his form was that of a regular Red-Eyes only with pupils, a thinner body and hand-like claws. A few weeks of keeping that form did I come up with the elongated spikes along his back but it resembled silky hair at first before it became plain spikes/spines that can hardened or soften at his command or the mood he's in. Mostly changes based on his mood.

That form was kept for at least a year before I had the gall to play FF8 and remembered Bahamut as one of my favorite summons so I combined some parts of Bahamut to him and that stayed for a few weeks (including the change from Red-Eyes features to more Bahamut features) before I switched it to being Tiamat. That too stayed for a while before I started seeing other dragons in fanart and pictures so parts were changed for a bit in my mind before I stuck to having at least a certain number of other dragon parts added to his Red-Eyes form (demon side included).

So now, in most stories but maybe not much, you may see a slight difference in forms compared to other stories and that because I can't choose a permanent form as of yet but the only time you may see much of a change of his form in a story is if I do one that was set during the Doom Saga so as stated above, he will share elements of Timaeus.

Note: As of now of this new update to info, Aqua now has a reference of his form in the second edition version of Yami no Game only to be found on my AO3 account [chapter 27]

For those of my YGO readers that read this far. Yes, my YGO fiction have been lacking updates for a while. A good long while. Half is from writer's block and lost plots over time, half is from slowly losing interest with fiction writing for the category. I assure you that these will be done, maybe not all of them as I planned but I will do my best. For the moment I'm making it a duty to work on at least one story at a time to it's completion, even using down time at work to write up future chapters, so please bear with the withering writer. -bows- Update is stories are being moved to AO3 as they are being edited on here. This will be more of an archive for stories that don't make the cut for AO3.

FINAL UPDATE: MOST OF THIS PROFILE IS BEING CLEANED DUE TO OBVIOUS WITHERED DOWN POSTING OF MOST FICTION HERE! I WILL ASK AGAIN TO NOT ASK OF THE STATUS OF STORIES IN REVIEWS OR TO PM [IF I DESIRE TO KEEP OPEN] ABOUT HOW THEY ARE.

I do miss writing for the YGO genre but things have been pretty much dead for it [and i sadly havent been keeping up with the series from GX, 5-D, Arc-V and so on] so I've moved on to a different series. There are plenty of incomplete stories and most that have a basis of plotline that can be recovered but for those 5, 6 or 7 year old stories, the hope that they can be given at least a summary is viable but again, i IMPLORE to avoid asking about them. 90% of PMs before is repeated questioning of when something was going to be done/updated/abandoned and it gets rather annoying.

For those fans that are still sticking around for my YGO work, i thank you for your continuous support and give the deepest apologies that everything pretty much came to a halt. getting old and keeping interests going is a pain. edit: still getting old is still a pain but may as well claim that yes, got a second wind in my passion for this fandom BUT most of my work is going to be over on AO3. the audience here is slowly growing stale and i get a better response there. i thank those that continue to find interest in my work here but the likely chance of new items to be posted here is very small. visit me over in AO3 under zephyrdragon362 for current updates~
