!Xyz Dimension
!!The Resistance
The remaining Xyz duelists who haven't been captured by Academia; are the last remnants of a world that's gone to hell due to dimensional invaders. The Xyz dimension was originally a peaceful place to live in before they were attacked without warning. After repelling against most of the Obelisk Forces, duelists of the Resistance were able to procure the same technology as their enemies and can now inflict real damage on their opponents and seal them away into cards.

!!Shun Kurosaki
!!!'''Archetype''': Raidraptor
[[quoteright:270:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kurosaki_shun_3.jpg]]
Shun Kurosaki, along with Yuto, is one of the survivors of the invasion on the Xyz Dimension, as well as a member of the Resistance. Originally a kind, if a somewhat stoic person, the invasion took its toll on his psyche. What makes this worse is learning that the true reasons why his home was destroyed and his younger sister Ruri, being planned as a "sacrifice" along with his best friend Yuto, being intended to get killed off by The Professor. He later joins up with Ray as her "knight" to ensure the safety of his loved ones and to make Academia pay for their transgressions.\\\
Shun uses a Raidraptor deck, which is made for swarming Winged-Beast-Type monsters to Xyz Summon monsters with low base-ATK, but powerful effects. He also has many Spell and Trap Cards that can counter various situations and exploits his Rank Up spells to evolve his Raidraptors into more powerful forms.
----
* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: In the anime, Ruri being captured by Yuri causes Shun to really start [[SanitySlippage losing it]], and soon became a HeWhoFightsMonsters AntiHero. When being enlightened by the AwfulTruth of the Dimensional War along with the fact that his sister and best friend are to be sacrificed and killed respectively, his thirst for vengeance and hatred goes past the point of no return.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Compare to his canon counterpart, who's already a {{Jerkass}} HeWhoFightsMonsters AntiHero at the start of the story, Shun's relatively "nicer" here due to Ruri never having to be kidnapped by Yuri. Furthermore, his BigBrotherBully and ControlFreak tendencies of his sister are relatively toned down here.
* AdaptationalSexuality: According to WordOfGod, Shun is homosexual in the fic, having an attraction for Yuto.
* AdaptationalVillainy: At the beginning of the canon anime, he was already a GoodIsNotNice AntiHero [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope skirting onto the edges]] of a NominalHero. Here, he fully becomes an AntiVillain since he's helping [[VillainProtagonist Ray]] to ensure the safety of his sister and best friend.
* AntiVillain: After chapter 13, he falls into this role since, despite helping the revival of Ray and Zarc, his goals firmly lie in protecting his sister and best friend, helping the ones they care about and rebuilding their home after it was laid waste by the Academia Forces.
* BadassLongcoat: He wears a long blue-purple coat and looks tough with it.
* BigBrotherInstinct:
** Ruri may not have been blood-related, it doesn't stop him from being a very doting brother if a little overprotective. So much as he's willing to make a pact with Ray to revive her and Zarc as long as she ensures that Ruri will be still alive in the end.
** He also extends this to Yuto and included his safety as well in his pact with Ray.
* ChessMotif: The Knight, as he serves as Ray's agent in chapter 13.
* CyberneticsEatYourSoul: Metaphorically; his Raidraptors monsters resemble robotic avian predators, which symbolizes his desire to protect his sister and PayEvilUntoEvil on his foes. However, his devotion to his sister is what Ray recognizes as a good trait.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Played with. Despite his dark attire and joining up with Ray to revive her and Zarc, Shun cares more about protecting his loved ones and hurting those who try to harm them.
* DeathFromAbove: A recurring motif of his Raidraptors, with Revolution Falcon burying the Obelisk Forces under a hail of bombs in his nightmare.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Despite being willing to commit morally unconscious acts in order to protect his sister, best friend, and homeland, Shun is quite disgusted by learning how petty Leo's motives are in order to revive his daughter.
** He's also horrified to see his sister physically assaulting Obelisk Force members, although this is more so because of how uncharacteristic it is for her to be doing so than out of any sympathy for her victims.
** Although he swiftly demolishes Masumi in their duel, he feels no satisfaction from such a brutal victory, since she wasn't a threat towards him.
* {{Expy}}: Can be seen as one to Rishid/Odion from the original series. Both are TheDragon to their respective {{Big Bad}}s and are the adopted brothers of them (or in Shun's case, a part of them). Neither of them is particularly evil on their own, but their UndyingLoyalty to their family drives them to do terrible things.
* FantasticRacism: Considering what the Obelisk Forces had done to his home, he hates Fusion Summoning. Although this is rather downplayed thanks to Ray and his sister, focusing his hatred on Academia rather than fusion users in general.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Yuto, as the two are best friends from thick to thin. {{Subverted|Trope}} as the "heterosexual" part doesn't apply to them anymore, as WordOfGod states that both Shun and Yuto are homosexual and bisexual respectively.
* IWantMyBelovedtoBeHappy: Is in love with Yuto, but refuses to act on his feelings due to his relationship with his sister Ruri. Subverted in Chapter 21, where Ruri is more than willing to share.
* InstantExpert: It didn't take him long to master his newfound powers bestowed by Ray and Zarc.
* KarmicJackpot: A villainous example. His love for Ruri is recognized by Ray, who's very happy that her counterpart had such a loving family member and would do anything to protect her and their friends. This leads to him being gifted by both Ray and Zarc with his own powers and gaining new cards as well.
* KnightTemplarBigBrother: He will do ''anything'' to make sure that Ruri is alright, and he extends to Yuto to a lesser extent. It's also what causes him to ally himself with Ray and Zarc in the first place.
* MagicKnight: A pretty good duelist in a world where duel monsters can be implemented with real magic and is a skilled hand-to-hand fighter capable of taking down several enemies at once. This is much more apparent with Ray and Zarc empowering him with his new cards.
* MyMasterRightOrWrong: Well, his sister, but he outright tells Ray that he'll do anything to protect Ruri.
* LoveMakesYouCrazy: His love for his sister Ruri makes him very erratic in his willingness to protect her, which Ray finds endearing.
* LoveMakesYouEvil: He later joins up with Ray into reviving her and Zarc to protect Ruri. To a lesser extent, this also applies to his feelings for Yuto.
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: It's what he ''intends'' to do to The Professor, as his brief fantasy shows, it involves grabbing the man by the throat and bashing his skull against his own throne repeatedly. [[AdaptationalKarma And unlike canon, it's probably going to happen compared to his almost punch at the man]].
* NotSoStoic: He drops his stoicism whenever Ruri or his allies' lives are at stake.
* PowerLossDepression: {{Inverted|Trope}}. As he gains power by accepting the two cards gifted to him by Ray and Zarc, he becomes much more lively.
* PunchClockVillain: All he wants is to protect his home and what little family he has left. If it means working to resurrect two gods who waged war on humanity, then so be it.
* StraightGay: His personality is not much different from canon, besides being much nicer and hopeful, and he holds romantic feelings for his best friend.
* TheStoic: He becomes very cynical and emotionless after Academia invaded his home.
* ThreeAmigos: He has this dynamic with his sister and best friend after the three of them are on the same page in chapter 13. This leads to Sayaka feeling uneasy by how the three "move and spoke with a strange union and synchronicity".
* TookALevelInBadass: In chapter 13, he gains powers like his sister and best friend, and his deck gains two more cards from Ray and Zarc respectively.
* TookALevelInCheerfulness: He became very depressed and stoic after Academia destroyed his home, but after accepting two cards gifted to him by Ray he becomes more lively.
* VitriolicBestBuds: His first scene is him and Yuto having an argument about whether or not it would be wise to attack an Academy Base, with the implication being that this is a common occurrence. Nonetheless, Shun cares for him just as much as he does Ruri, and ensuring his protection is half of the reason he joins Ray and Zarc.
* YouAreWorthHell: "The only truth I know is that Ruri is my sister, my family. Nothing will change that, nothing could make her any less important to me."

!!!'''Archetype''': Cipher/Galaxy-Eyes
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tenjoukaitofull3155057.jpg]]
An alternate counterpart to Kaito Tenjou from ''Anime/YuGiOhZEXAL''. Prior to the invasion of Heartland, he was a Pro Duelist who was on track to be Heartland's next Duel Champion and having fun doing it. Nowadays, he is consumed with wrath and has a deep hatred towards Academia, and is kind of paranoid towards strangers.\\\
He wields the "Cipher" archetype, a deck that revolves around having multiples of cards with the same name on the field, even if he has to manipulate them to fulfill his requirements. His ace monster is Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon.
----
* AdaptationalHeroism: {{Justified|Trope}} since the Resistance is going strong compare to them nearly wipe out in canon, along with Haruto not carded.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: He's far kinder and reasonable than his canon counterpart, who's reduced to a HeWhoFightsMonsters KnightTemplar after losing his family and most of his comrades.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Like in the anime, he lacks the "Photon Change" from ''ZEXAL'', meaning that his trench coat is permanently black, but is not evil and focuses on saving his hometown.
* LightIsGood: His Cipher monsters and Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon are LIGHT Attributes, and he's part of the Resistance.
* OlderThanTheyLook: He's ''18'', a year older than Kurosaki, but he looks much younger and shorter.
