Abidos regained physical form through the powers of the Shadow Charm headband he wore. With an army of mummies, Abidos gathers [[Jaden Yuki|Jaden]] and company on his celestial yacht for a duel. During the duel with Jaden, Abidos realizes that the only reason he kept winning was because his opponents always lost on purpose, simply because he was pharaoh. Jaden, however, manages to give Abidos a real duel in which the opponent actually tries to win. Satisfied with his defeat, Abidos departs for the afterlife, giving Jaden his Shadow Charm, the latter making a promise to meet him again in one hundred years time.

He captures [[Alexis Rhodes|Alexis]] and forces Jaden to duel for her life. Despite his reputation of possessing the power of a [[Millennium Item]], it is in fact a fake [[Millennium Puzzle]], and Titan uses various tricks to mimic a Shadow Game. He becomes the victim of a real shadow duel, however, and is dragged into the Shadow Realm, but is saved by [[Kagemaru]] under the condition that he will serve as the sixth of the [[Shadow Riders]], wearing a Shadow Charm mask to bind him to the real world. Taking advantage of Alexis' desire to restore her brother's memories, Titan challenges her in the abandoned dorm where they first met. Following his defeat, his soul is pulled back into the pits of darkness.

| |
| − | [[Image:Amnael.jpg|220px|thumb|left|Amnael]] '''Amnael''' 「アムナエル, ''Amunaeru''」 is the seventh and final [[Shadow Riders|Shadow Rider]], who challenges [[Jaden Yuki|Jaden]] to a duel. Amnael first duels [[Chazz]] and [[Alexis]] and took [[Atticus]] as his prisoner as well. It is revealed that he was the one who took [[Atticus]] to the alternate dimension, and the latter was forced to use [[Nightshroud|Nightshroud's mask card]]. There, Nightshroud got his shadow charm medalion (only one-half of the medalion was given). It is also the same place where Banner took Jaden in [[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX - Episode 028|Episode 28]], and where Jaden gets the other half of Nightshroud's shadow charm. It is inferred that Banner did this in order for Jaden to have his own Shadow Charm as well, which can negate someone else's shadow charm (seen in [[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX - Episode 033|Episode 33]]). "Amnael" is actually a pseudonym used by [[Lyman Banner]], who eventually reveals his body to be is a crumbling homunculus vessel. [[Image:Amnael_(Amnaeru).PNG|thumb|lright|240px||Amnael defeated by Jaden Yuki]]Banner overpowers his former pupil, but Jaden manages to summon a monster that defeats Banner's strategy and Banner himself. After giving Jaden his Shadow Charm, the Emerald Tablet, Banner turns to dust, along with his original mummified body. His spirit, however, is swallowed by his cat, Pharaoh.

| − | | |
| − | '''Deck'''<br>
| |
| − | Amnael plays an '''Alchemy Deck''', which draws a relationship between the science and universe. His strategy relies on the removal of his own cards [[Removed from Play|from the game]], supported by the special summoning of '''Alchemy Beasts''' (Alchemic Beasts; 「錬金獣, ''Renkinjū''」), based off common base metals and animals used in alchemy to transmute and refine gold, and the Alchemic Processes, based off four of the seven main stages in transmutation, falling under calcination, dissolution, separation, conjunction, fermentation, distillation, and coagulation. In the Japanese version, the positions of the two words making up each Alchemic Beast's name are inversed, as well as "the" being omitted entirely. (Their names, as well as the names of the Alchemic Processes, are not hyphenated.)

| − | ===Kagemaru=== | + | ==Trivia== |
| − | [[Image:Kagemaru.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Kagemaru]] '''Kagemaru''' 「影丸」 is the leader of the Shadow Riders and former superintendent of [[Duel Academy]]. In horrible health, he hoped to attain eternal youth by sacrificing Duel Monster spirits to the Sacred Beasts. During his duel with [[Jaden]], his youth gradually returned. After being defeated, however, he returned to his aged state. He then promised to renounce his former ways and asked for forgiveness, which Jaden was happy to give. Kagemaru was last seen being carried to the hospital by helicopter.
| + | * 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. |
| − | In the fourth season, Kagemaru returns to Duel Academy with Sartorius to tell Jaden that they have sensed a crisis that might happen somewhere down the road. After that, he was also in Jaden's graduation ceremony.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The "Kage" portion of his name is derived from the Japanese word "kage" 「影」, meaning "shadow," while the "Maru" portion means "path." Therefore, this character's name could mean "shadowy path" or "dark side." | |
| − | | |
| − | In the English version, [[Wikipedia:David Wills |David Wills]] plays the old, frail Kagemaru while [[Wikipedia:Marc Thompson|Marc Thompson]] plays the young Kagemaru. In the original Japanese version, [[Wikipedia:Mugihito|Mugihito]] plays the old Kagemaru while [[Wikipedia:Nobutoshi Canna|Nobutoshi Canna]] plays the young one. | |
| − | | |
| − | '''Deck'''<br>
| |
| − | Kagemaru's plays a '''[[Sacred Beast Deck]]'''. He carries a basic [[Fiend Deck]] to support Raviel, and plenty of [[Spell]] and [[Trap Card]]s to support Uria and Hamon.
