When the Millennium Puzzle activates, Yugi is filled with its magical energies and becomes Yami Yugi, his much more powerful alter ego. Not only is Yami Yugi a master dueler, but he is full of confidence and courage. In fact, he's literally the King of Game (Yugi=game) and anyone who challenges him must face the wrath of his many, monster-filled cards, strange games of chance and skill, or rolls of the dice! Yugi Motou
Yugi is the main character and the hero of Yu-Gi-Oh! He was given the Millennium Puzzle by his grandfather, Surogoku Mutou. Yugi then proceeded to solve and complete the Millennium Puzzle, thus accessing the hidden powers that waited in it. Within the puzzle, Yugi gained a hidden spirit, an ancient spirit that comes out whenever Yugi plays a game. This is what is known in the Yu-Gi-Oh! Series as Yami Yugi, or "Dark Yugi" in English. Yami Yugi is the only "good natured" spirit of the Millennium items and continually helps Yugi through all the tribulations set before him. Maximillion Pegasus
Pegasus is the creator of the Duel Monsters card game. He gained the idea for the card game from ancient "games of darkness" (English: Shadow Games) that were played in ancient Egypt. Pegasus owns the Industrial Illusions Company that manufactures the Duel Monsters cards. He also wields a Millennium item, the Millennium Eye, which gives him the power to see in other people's minds as well as an opponent�s hand during a duel. With this distinct advantage, he defeats several major duelists in the span of the Duelist Kingdom Story Arc. Joey Wheeler
He is one of Yugi's best friends and slowly develops himself into one of the best duelists in the world of Yu-Gi-Oh! Along with his tight pack of friends, Yugi, Anzu (English: Tea), and Hiroto Honda (English name: Tristan Taylor) they journey to the Duelist Kingdom and Jounouchi, despite not being invited, is lent one star chip by Yugi and officially becomes part of the Duelist Kingdom tournament. He duels for his sister in this tournament, because she has an eye disease that will eventually cause her to go blind. With an expensive operation though, she can be cured. Tea Gardener
Tea is a freshmen at Domino High School. Her dream is to visit New York and study dance. While that's not happening, she spends her free time at school with her friends. She worked at a burger place called "Burger World", but a criminal there stopped that. Yugi had saved her from getting shot down. That was when Tea started wondering about the person that had saved her, and her friend Yugi. She is often found with Yugi and is sometimes mistaken for his girlfriend. Yugi would love that to happen, but perhaps Tea finds safety in the fact that their just friends. Tea cares a lot about her friends and shows it on a regular basis. Tea can't stand Mai. She only puts up with her because she's another duelist. Later down the road Tea and Yugi find themselves together, accepting each other for who they really are. Among all of Yugi's friends, T�a is the voice of reason. A childhood friend of Yugi's, T�a is also the biggest cheerleader in the group, always encouraging everyone to believe in themselves and to never give up. T�a loves her friends so very much and is willing to help them in any way she possibly can. Mae Valentine
A pretty female duelist, she came to the Duelist Kingdom tournament for the prize money and other selfish reasons. After meeting Yugi and the others, she starts to contemplate about letting her guard down and accepting them as friends. She duels Jounouchi (English name: Joey) once, Yugi once (in the Duelist Kingdom Semi-Finals), and Anzu (English: Tea) once. Mai holds the record for most star chips gained in the Duelist Kingdom tournament at sixteen, six of which she gives to Yugi to enter the castle after Kaiba defeated Yugi. Ryou Backura
Bakura is a new transfer student into Yugi Mutou's high school class. The normal Bakura is a kind-hearted person who encourages Yugi and Jounouchi through their duels in Duelist Kingdom. The bad part to Bakura is that he is the wielder of another Millennium item. He wields the Millennium Ring, contrary to Yugi's Millenium Puzzle, Pegasus' Millennium Eye, and Malik's Millennium Rod. Bakura's Millenium Ring contains a very evil spirit that takes control of him and has very dark ambitions that rival even Yami Malik's ambitions. The Millennium Ring has the power to locate other millennium items with its various pointers. Yami Bakura is first seen when Yugi is challenged to a Game of Darkness (English: Shadow Game) by Bakura in the Duelist Kingdom. Bakura entraps normal Yugi, Honda (English: Tristan), Jounouchi (English: Joey), and Anzu's (English: Tea) souls into their favorite cards inserted in Yugi's deck. Yami Bakura then proceeded to claim the Millennium Puzzle in which Yami Yugi stopped him. Yami Yugi won his duel versus Yami Bakura with a quick use of his shadow powers. He switched normal Bakura's soul with the soul of Yami Bakura in Bakura's Change of Heart card to send Yami Bakura to the graveyard. Seto Kaiba
He is Yugi's main rival, and an extremely good duelist. He is the Duel Monsters World Champion, and has only lost three times in his life. He loses to Yugi before Duelist Kingdom because of Exodia, he then loses again to Pegasus, and finally loses in the Battle City semi-finals to Yugi. While extremely cold on the exterior he has a soft-spot for his little brother Mokuba. Seto inherited Kaiba Corp from his father that adopted him. The Kaiba brothers were adopted when he beat Kaiba Corp's former chairman at a game of chess. Kaiba's "father" trained him to be cold, which is what turned out to be Kaiba today Granpa (Sugoroku Motou)
A game shop proprietor and expert gamer all around. Sugoroku Motou is Yugi's grandfather. Not much is really known about Yugi's parents, but we're shown that he is raising Yugi. Sugoroku owns the game shop below where they live. Yugi gets most of his games and other items from there. Sugoroku has his own mystery behind him. He's been to America and has several friends there. He has connections to Egyptian artifacts, mostly games, and he has friends in the universities in Japan and other places. We don't know what else Sugoroku has or where he's been or even what else he's gotten in his travels. Sugoroku is a great player of Duel Monsters. He has a special card, the "Blue Eyes White Dragon". It's said that it can only be used by the person who's heart it belongs to. Seto Kaiba tried to steal it from Yugi, and was successful in his attempt. In the end however, the heart of the card was for Yugi's grandfather and Kaiba couldn't use it. Sugoroku cares a great deal about Yugi, perhaps that's why he gave Yugi the "Millennium Puzzle". He knew what secrets it held, and perhaps he wanted Yugi to become stronger. But strength comes at a price. A former world traveler, Yugi's grandpa now owns the neighborhood gaming shop. Sugoroku knows everything there is to know about games, but is especially well-versed in the ways of Duel Monsters. Sugoroku teaches Yugi about believing in the "heart of the cards." Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Charecters Jaden Yuki
15-year old Jaden Yuki joins Duel Academy, a boarding school that was established by Seto Kaiba. Before he actually gets to the Academy, Jaden obtains a Winged Kuriboh card from Yugi Muto. While at the school, Jaden gets a low score on the duelist entry exam and is therefore placed in Slifer Red , the lowest dorm, along with Syrus Truesdale. Although Jaden gets a bad score on the exam, he is a very talented duelist and has good instincts. This causes many of the other duelists at the Academy to fear him. He was later asked in an episode to be promoted to the Ra Yellow Dorm, but did not accept as he wanted to be with his friends. His Deck is built around Elemental Heros and he uses them to great effect.As he claims his favorite Elemental Hero is the "Elemental Hero Flame Wingman". He loves dueling deeply and focus' on the luck of the draw. He has a fighting spirit and never seems to give up. He also has the ability to see "Duel-Spirits" as he has one in the form of his "Winged Kuriboh". Syrus Trusdale
Syrus is the weaker younger brother of Zane Truesdale, who is in the Obelisk Blue dormitory. He himself joined as a student in the Slifer Red dormitory along with Chumley Huffington and the main character, Jaden Yuki. He is a decent duelist, but has a great deal of self doubt, hindering his performance. He uses a Vehiharoid deck and has a powerful Powerbond card.He also has a crush on the "Dark Magician Girl" and can be a little crazy at times but always quietins down. He fears his brother Zane because of the way he treats him.
Alexis is a strong female duelist from the Obelisk Blue dormitory at Duel Academy. Alexis, along with Zane Truesdale and Chazz Princeton, is in the best dormitory of the academy. She is regarded as the "madonna" of Obelisk Blue, yet she does not follow the crowd nor does she regard herself as better than other people. Many fans (as well as her own brother, who picks on her about it) believe that Alexis has a crush on Jaden Yuki, the main character, who is a student in Slifer Red.
17-year old Zane Truesdale is the stronger older brother of Syrus Truesdale. He is given the nickname the "Kaiser". Zane is highly respected, and a duel with him is reserved only for the elite. Zane is close friends with Alexis and her brother, Atticus Rhodes.When Syrus was younger, he almost used the card Power Bond without thinking during a duel. He was stopped by Zane who revealed that if he used it, he would have lost the duel at the end of his turn because of the card's drawback. Paying off Syrus' opponent to end the duel, Zane sealed the card, stating that his brother could only use it when he was truly ready. Syrus, believing himself to be a disgrace to his older brother, did not unseal the card until much later after his friend Jaden Yuki faced off against Zane. Zane was selected by Camula, the second member of the Shadow Riders,as a victim of her shadow duel. Though he easily overpowered her, the vampire forced him into an intentional loss by offering his brother's soul as payment for her Illusion Gate card. As a result, he was turned into a doll for a short period of time, before Jaden managed to defeat Camula. Zane is famous for being one of the 2 people to have ever defeated Jaden in a duel thus far, the other being Kaibaman.
