Creating a King Of Games[edit]

Were they given to you by someone special? Did you acquire them by a sinister way like theft? Why do you use your deck? Do you plan on reaching the title of "King of Games" like the great Pharaoh, Atem, and others before you or will you use your deck for your own personal gain? What is your bond with your deck? Are the cards simply a means to an end for you? Do you truly believe in the heart of the cards or is every card in your deck just as replaceable as a rock?

Standard Duelist Equipment[edit]
Starting at first level, you gain the standard duelist equipment listed below. These are magic items that are bound to every duelist. They are gifted to you by the god Atem and cannot be sold or traded. While they are indestructible, they can be lost, so make sure to keep good track of them. The combined weight of this equipment is 1lb.
Millennium Cards= A set of 200 magical cards produced by the god Atem and given to worthy duelists. These cards can house the souls of creatures, magic, and items. These are displayed on the cards and referred to as monsters, spells, and traps. All of these Cards are initially blank and useless. they can only be "imprinted"(putting the soul of something onto a card) through class features. If these cards are left outside a soul "container"(Deck Box, Millennium Tin) for 1 hour the soul inside the Card is released and the Card returns to its blank state to be used again.
Dueling Deck= Choose a set of 3 monsters and one spell from the Starting Millennium Cards list(at the bottom of the class page). These cards become your dueling deck. Each Card in the Dueling Deck is given a number ranging from one to the highest number on your Draw Die shown in the Class Table. Cards in the dueling deck, side deck, or extra Deck can only be changed out (with cards from the millennium tin) during a long rest. Cards that are not in the deck can not be used.
Deck Box = This small magic Box which is usually fastened to your leg or hip that houses one of your dueling deck for easy access. It can house millennium cards up to the highest number of your draw die(shown in the Class Table) without their souls seeping out(acts as a "soul container"). A Deck Box may only contain up to 3 copies of a card.
Millennium Tin = This small metal box allows you to keep any Millennium cards that are not in a Deck without their souls seeping out(acts as a "soul container"). If you lose possession of this item, you can NOT return it to your hand like the Dueling Deck, you will have to find it.
Draw[edit]
Starting at first level, as a free action, at the start of each of your turns you may roll the Draw Die and pull one card from your dueling deck(stationed in the deck box) based on the result of that roll. If you roll the number of a card you have already drawn you must go with the next lowest number. If there are no more cards with lower numbers you must go with the next highest number. The draw die starts as a 1d4 and increases as you gain levels indicated on the class table. As long as you have at least one card in your hand, you cannot hold anything else in that hand.
Shadow Games[edit]
Starting at 1st level. You have the ability to transmit the souls within your Millennium Cards into a physical form. Theses forms cannot be extended beyond 30ft from your position(this is referred to as the Field). Any form that goes beyond this range is sent to a pocket dimension(referred to as the graveyard).
-As an action you may summon a Monster from a Millennium Card in your hand. Hold out a Monster card and will the soul of that monster to appear within 5ft of you. A Monster cannot be summoned in the same space as another creature/Monster or in midair(unless that monster has flight/hover). Monsters that you Summon can be a CR equal to or lower than the Summon CR Level shown in the class table. You can only have a maximum of three Monsters on your field at any time. This is increased to 4 at 10th level and to 5 at 15th level. You must state the monster you are summoning aloud.
-When holding a spell card in your hand you can cast it with it's casting time. Hold out a Spell card and will the soul of that spell to appear somewhere on your Field. Spell requirements such as a target and/or concentration still apply. No materials are necessary to cast a spell this way. You must say "I activate (Spell name)" when you cast a spell. The King of Games table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell’s level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest. For example, if you know the 1st-level spell cure wounds and have a 1st-level and a 2nd-level spell slot available, you can cast cure wounds using either slot.
-As a bonus action you may "set" a Trap Card from your hand. Hold out a Trap Card and will the soul of that Trap to appear face down on the field. Traps Cards can only be activated when their activation conditions are met. Trap cards can only be gained through class features.
Any Millennium Card in your Hand or on the Field can be returned to the Dueling Deck at any Time. Any Spell or Trap used during combat or Monster killed in combat is sent to a pocket dimension referred to as the Graveyard and can only be returned to the Dueling Deck during a long rest. Monsters that are not killed or returned to the dueling deck disappear after 1 hour. You can use a bonus action to command all Monsters you have summoned to use their movement and attack a target creature. Monsters can be controlled separately. Lastly, you must state when you end your turn.
When applicable your:
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier

At 1st level, you gain the ability to spend 30 minutes to imprint a written spell equal to your highest spell level or lower(indicated on your class table) into a millennium card(becoming a spell card), or copying a spell cast at or near you while participating in a shadow game. You can also instantly imprint a defeated creature(must be defeated by a member of the party) into a millennium card(becoming a monster card) to be added into your millennium tin. The creature must have died in the last 10 minutes in order to be scanned. The stats and abilities of the creatures can be modified at the discretion of the DM, but the creatures traits are ignored. Any equipment the creature is wielding is also copied but can only be wielded by that creature.
Trap Card[edit]
At 2nd level, you gain access to 3 trap cards, listed at the bottom of the page. When you choose these trap cards they are imprinted on your millennium cards. You can choose the same trap multiple times. You can "set" a trap card as a bonus action. Once a card is "set", you can't activate it until the restrictions on the card are met. You have to use your reaction in order to activate set trap cards. Set trap cards that have not been activated disappear after 10 minutes, and go to the graveyard. You pick 2 more trap cards to imprint onto your millennium cards at levels 6, 9, and 18.

The monsters you send to the graveyard must have a combined CR equal to or greater than the monster being summoned through tributes. For example, an adult red dragon has CR 17, so you could tribute 2 monsters with a CR of 9 to get a combined CR of 18, letting you summon the adult red dragon.
Soulbound[edit]
Starting at 5th level, your duelist equipment is bound to your soul and can be summoned to you from anywhere as a bonus action and you can store items inside your millennium cards.

While the duel spirit is summoned you can choose to re-roll the first draw die of each turn, if re-rolled the second result must be used. When the spirit is sent to the graveyard, you may make two draw rolls at the start of your next turn. You can always see this monster as a ghostly spirit following you around (you, and those with true sight are the only ones who can see it).

At 15th level, your bond with your monsters has gained you the favor of the legendary Crimson Dragon and thus you have earned the right to use his disciples, the signer dragons. Choose one mark of the Crimson Dragon to determine which Signer Dragon card you gain. When a signer Dragon is summoned, the mark of the Crimson Dragon that corresponds will appear on your right arm and glow with a dim light. Each signer Dragon comes with their own unique ability. You may only have one mark at a time and may switch during a long rest. The signer dragons can be summoned twice per long rest.
