YGO 5Ds medieval AU: Crow the Rogue!

The Runic part is an association of the character with a Germanic Rune (they're all from different sources so not exactly accurate!) - they fit with all the names to give their ancient Runic names ;

they're the equivalent of the Crimson Dragon marks for the Signers! (except here they're called the beam[s] (signs) / beamberend (sign-bearers) -- I'll do a full post with all the lore later! ..when I finally do the other designs..

CROW - the BLACKFEATHER ROGUE

- Archer and rogue: sneaky thief that lives in the Woods and leaps around, tree-to-tree, whilst firing arrows at unsuspecting travellers to steal from them!

- As his rune suggests, he is skilful in his craft, using natural resources to craft his various daggers, arrows and even his worn clothing!

- Carries small hidden daggers for that added efficiency (and in case his enemies take his precious bow! ... he always has a trick up his sleeve - literally!!)

- Looks after orphans that get lost in the Woods, having a soft spot for their lives from having to live rough from a young age himself

BLACKFEATHER BOW (and his Runic power!)

- designed after Crow's signer dragon, Black Feather/Wing Dragon! ((they all have ancient weapons based on their dragons!))

- It's power is Damage-Drain: every arrow drains power from targets, and each is absorbed into the bow, turning the feathers black one-by-one until they all darken and Crow can unleash his arrow flurry... NOBLE STREAM!!!! (based off his Signer Dragon's power!)

MEETING THE OTHER BEAMBEREND (Atlas, Yusei, Runa, Akiza)

- I'll probably do a fuller post later down the line with how they all meet and I'm working on a little comic for their introductions, but I'll include this anyway (because it will take me a LONG time to get to that point!):

- As a rogue, he definitely tried to steal from one of them... Probably from Atlas, who did not let him go! They have a rivalry and constantly fight each other. With Crow as the mischievous type he is, he always winds Atlas up, but Atlas takes it to far with his Absolute Power!

- He likely meets Yusei through Atlas (they meet eachother first!), but tries to steal from Yusei likewise. Yusei's kindness and humility gives him a sense of guilt, and he and Yusei develop a pact to protect each other!

- Runa, as the noble daughter, was a much later introduction! Crow likely travels with Atlas and Yusei to meet her and start the Rune quest! (more info coming later...). Runa, as a healer, protects Crow - but Crow finds out about her troubled upbringing and, as both an orphan himself and looking after orphans, and he tries to give her more of a happy childhood than Godwin does!

- Aki is rumoured to be an evil Witch-botanist, so he and the others have to hunt her out to uncover the truth... and when she joins them she is the only one that can truly discipline him with her tough and apathetic power! Crow still tries to be rebellious though! in the end, they're quite the opposites!

#so i finally finished one of them! #ill eventually post all the others similarly to this and then do a full lore post etc! #trust me ive already thought wayyy too much about this au! #also all the runic/language stuff is mostly based on anglo saxon since im studying that now #but again its all fantasy and loosely based on history #and yes obvs obsessed with 5ds so its mostly 5ds #but other yugioh characters may appear....... #i think the rogue/archer archetype is my favourite in general so im happy with how crow fits into it!!!! #for reference until i post the others: #Akiza is a botanical witch who others fear and bears the Black Rose whip #Atlas is a demon warrior that has absolute power and wields the heavy Red Archfiend Axe #Yusei is an intelligent sorcerer who protects with his magic and leads the runes and holds the Stardust Staff #Runa is a noble Fairy Priestess raised by godwin and taught healing magic and heals with her mystical Ancient Fairy Circlet #and godwin is the elven noble who sends them on the rune quest and knows lots about their runic powers and the legend of the akakiryu runes
