Yu-Gi-Oh! GX OCs for The Trials Series

NAME: Kylie Regine Reynolds

ETYMOLOGY: The name, Kylie comes from Australia meaning "boomerang". It is also the feminine version of the name "Kyle". The name Regine is of Norwegian origin and means "Queen". The surname Reynolds is a patronymic surname meaning "son of Reynold", where the given name of the father, "Reynold", or "Reginald", was a Germanic name meaning "Powerful Ruler" (possibly an alteration of the Old French name Reinold).

RELATIVES: Blake Reynolds (older brother), Devon Reynolds (father), Freya Reynolds (mother), Aeryn Reynolds (paternal grandmother)

DECK(S): "Dracosmos" (current), Dragon (childhood) [I was given permission by @EndlessNight025 to use the "Dracosmos"]

DORM: Obelisk Blue, First Year

APPEARS IN: The Trials Series (Trials of Darkness, Trials of Light, Trials of Dimensions, Trials of Nightmares)

APPEARANCE: Kylie is a slim girl of average height and weight. She is an exact mix of her parents, inheriting her mother's signature dark red eyes, and her father's pale, blonde-white hair, which is mid-back length and slightly curly. She eventually dyed her hair black with various shades of blue highlights.
Kylie wears a slightly modified version of the Obelisk Blue Girls' uniform: black sleeveless turtleneck shirt, open jacket, blue skirt, black leggings, calf-length brown boots, and black fingerless gloves. Around her waist, she has a purple belt with her blue Deck Case attached to it. She also wears a pair of silver, small hoop earrings. When not in school uniform, Kylie wears a sleeveless silver-white jacket over a black elbow-length sleeved shirt with a picture of the moon and stars, black jeans with sneakers or boots, depends on her mood.

PERSONALITY: Kylie is a young girl with fascination in ancient history and mythical creatures. With her family constantly moving since she was young, she kept to herself, not making friends, as she knew the friendship would not last. The only friend she could keep for a long time is her childhood friend Jesse Anderson. Even though of her parents' busy jobs, she still maintains a normal parent-child relationship. She has a close bond with her parents.

When she was younger, Kylie was almost always found reading a book and did not know how to make friends and didn't find it necessary since their family was always on the move. However, thanks to Blake getting her into Duel Monsters, her social skills are much better and she isn't afraid of making friends. She's able to interact with people her age and older through dueling and the Duel Tournaments she'd attend.

During duels, Kylie tends to not show any emotion, something she picked up from her brother. Because of this, not many people know what she is thinking about when dueling. She doesn't mean to not show any emotion, but it ended up becoming a habit. Kylie has been trying to show more emotion when dueling, but still, it is a work in progress.

With her newly discovered ability to see Duel Spirits, Kylie still gets freaked out over seeing Halley and tends to jump to surprise when Halley shows up without warning. By the time she is one of the chosen students to protect the Sacred Beasts, she is fine with Halley or any other of her Spirits showing up.
Kylie does not like it when people brag, think they know everything, or don't try. She can't stand people like that but has learned that not everyone is the same and everyone has different ways to go. She learns that after meeting Jaden and his "slacker" ways, especially with not trying hard on his homework. Though, she's kind of declared herself as his tutor and makes him work (his sister and aunt are very grateful for that).

BACKGROUND: Born in Oslo, Norway, Kylie is the youngest child and only daughter of archaeologists Devon and Freya Reynolds and the younger sister of Blake, by eight years. She lived in Oslo up until second grade when they moved due to Devon and Freya's jobs. In kindergarten, she befriended Jesse Anderson who protected her some bullies.

With her parents' busy jobs, the Reynolds family traveled a lot, resulting in Kylie and Blake taking online courses, and never staying in one place for a long time. To avoid trying to make friends, Kylie would just go to the nearest library and read on the country's ancient history. While Blake would try to get her outside and not be so antisocial, most attempts didn't work.

While they were in Peru, Blake began to notice Kylie begin to enter the stage of antisocial. Worried for her and her health, Blake pulled her to a Duel Monsters Tournament, hoping it would spark something in her. To his surprise, it did: Kylie quickly got into it and Blake quickly helped her create her own dark, even gifting her first card; "Red-Eyes Black Dragon", which previously belonged to their father.

The summer before she applied for Duel Academy, Kylie joined Jesse, who was going to be in a Dueling Tournament. In the end, she got a surprise but promised to keep it a secret. Before leaving the Dueling Tournament, Kylie was drawn to a set of cards. It was then she came into the possession of the "Dracosmos" cards and also learning that she can see Duel Spirits. Upon returning home, Blake sent Kylie a notice about Duel Academy.Blake believed it would help Kylie grow as a person and duelist, along with helping her form more friendships (which was something he thought she needed). After talking it over with their parents, it was decided Kylie would apply.
