The '''Shadow Riders''', known in Japan as the '''Seven Stars Assassins''' 「セブンスターズ刺客, ''Sebunsutāzu Shikaku''」, serve as the main antagonists of the first season of ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]]'', intent on resurrecting the [[Sacred Beasts]]. They are composed of 7 [[Duelist]]s and their leader of varying origins and backgrounds who each have their own agendas.
==History==
Enlisted by the elderly [[Kagemaru]] in his quest to retrieve his lost youth, the Shadow Riders are a collection of elite duelists who work towards the goal of reviving the [[Sacred Beasts|Sacred Beast Cards]] (三幻魔, ''Sangenma'', Three Phantom Demons). Each of the members that [[Jaden Yuki|Jaden]] and company face possess a [[Shadow Charms|Shadow Charm]] (闇のアイテム, '''Yami no Aitemu''', ''Dark Item'' in the Japanese Version), similar to the [[Millennium Items]] in terms of supernatural power, but of unknown origin. These relics bestow upon their owners different abilities depending on the Shadow Rider in question.
In the past, [[Kagemaru]] was forced to seal the [[Sacred Beasts|Sacred Beast Cards]] away behind the [[Spirit Gate|Spirit Gates]] underneath [[Duel Academy]] due to their inability to grant his wish at that time. In order to access their true abilities, he bestows upon [[Chancellor Sheppard]] the [[Spirit Keys|seven keys]] capable of unlocking the [[Spirit Gates]] and then pits his subordinates against the school's finest to create the strong dueling presence needed to resurrect the [[Sacred Beasts]] cards.

==Trivia==
* The groups original name, The "Seven Stars" may be a reference to the Biblical Seven Stars in the Book of Revelation.
* In their debut, only six members were seen; including a silhouette of a member that did not resemble either Abidos or Don Zaloog.
**Though it's not impossible Kagemaru simply fired his original fifth choice, given the first four blew it; Abidos was supposedly undefeated, while Titan and Amnael were fighting to exist.
