Love Interests/Crushes/Ships:
Nerdshipping: Ryou Bakura and Sora! The two bond over their shared interests, especially Monster World and the occult. They are a slowburn, friends to lovers dynamic, in which Ryou falls first but Sora falls the hardest. Ryou inspires Sora to embrace others and see the good in the world while Sora encourages Ryou to put himself first more.
Spiteshipping: Yami Bakura and Sora! They have an enemies to lovers dynamic. He’s out for their cuff and tries tricking them into trusting him but ends up falling for them along the way, over time realizing he’s drawn to them for some familiar reason. The two are spiteful enemies with extreme tension until it bursts into fiery passion.
Moirashipping: Marik Ishtar and Sora! They are also enemies to lovers, but end up relating to one another when realizing both were born into a prophecy they never asked to be a part of. Together they will pave themselves a new destiny to follow but the question is, will it be good or evil, or somewhere in between?

Lore:
Backstory: Sora Nazari is one of many links in a generational chain, their family passing down the item known as The Millennium Cuff. This item grants its wielder powers such as soul manipulation and sight into the shadows, allowing the owner to see and hear things behind the veil of the afterlife. This family is in servitude to the god Anubis and the current wielder of the cuff sends unruly spirits off to Anubis to be judged by him.
Sora’s mother Thyia was the last to wield the cuff, one day walking out into the dunes and allowing the item to take her body and soul, in the most peaceful way a cuff wielder could pass on. Their father, Essam, found the cuff and knew what happened to his wife. He also knew this would be the fate of his child.
The day Sora came of age to receive the cuff, Shadi arrived to oversee their bonding to the item. Though Essam begged to take on the burden in their place as he believed they were too young, and somehow began to place the item on his hand. It rejected him, starting to devour his hand and by the time Shadi could save him, his arm was gone down to the elbow.
Sora picked the cuff off of the ground and placed it on their own arm. The bonding was painful, and the sudden visions and voices of the dead overwhelmed them. But they survived, changed by it all.
Sora couldn’t stand to see their father’s new state because of them. They lost their mother and now almost their father. Wracked with guilt, they left home to try and learn the cuff’s secrets all on their own.
Season1: Sora is first seen during Duelist Kingdom but is cloaked and lingers in the background. They arrive to inspect what made their Millennium Cuff draw them towards the island and they run into Shadi when he arrives. He tells them they are not needed on the island but has an idea as to where they should go next- Domino.
Sora stows away on a boat and makes their way to the city, enrolling in the school Yugi Muto was attending to investigate further. They knew vaguely of a prophecy involving someone reawakening the Pharaoh within the Millennium Puzzle, and that it might bring about the end of the world- but many details were left out.
Yugi and his friends are interested in the new student, but Joey is not so impressed, recognizing them from somewhere (Duelist Kingdom) but not quite remembering where he’s seen them before. Joey catches Sora one night holding the unconscious body of his friend Bakura and begins to investigate this strange new student.

☥
Personality:
MBTI: INTJ
Personality: Sora can be described as Stoic, Independent, Cynical, Logical, and Loyal.
They don’t trust others in the beginning of their story and assume that people’s actions are in favor of their personal interests rather than the greater good. For this reason, Sora feels like they’re right while others are wrong. They think logically rather than personally and tend not to consider others’ feelings in the beginning as well.
Sora is a stoic character and comes off as aloof or cold at first glance, but can become more social when an interest of theirs is brought up. Sometimes in social situations they don’t know what to say and simply stare, making them seem intimidating to the other party.
When they do eventually become close with others and let them in, they become very loyal and protective of those who they care about.

Trivia:
☥ Sora is slow to anger but when they do get angry it can be very scary.
☥ At first Sora doesn’t see the value in human connection or friendship, which leads them to make choices that harm others.
☥ Ryou is Sora’s first true friend, they met when Sora dropped their Monster World dice and Ryou picked them up.
☥ Sora is autistic and can become overstimulated at times (especially if there are too many spirits around) and has sound sensitivities.
☥ They can’t always control when they see spirits and the realms often blend into one another, especially when they’re stressed
☥ Their sight is not always a burden though, on a good day they’ll visit the cemetery and talk to lingering spirits, write poetry or draw they ghosts they see
☥ At night Sora follows the tug of their item to find spirits tormenting or possessing people and sends these cruel souls off to be judged by Anubis.
