| − | * According to [[Master Guide 2 card storylines|Master Guide 2]], "Goldd" and "Sillva" are the heads of the Dark World's military and serve beneath "[[Reign-Beaux, Overlord of Dark World|Reign-Beaux]]," the political and religious authority, and "Goldd" is in fact the junior partner of the two. The two are in turn immediate superiors to "[[Brron, Mad King of Dark World|Brron]]"; the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]]'' anime portrayed this relationship in the exact opposite manner, with "[[Brron, Mad King of Dark World (character)|Brron]]" acting as the superior to both "[[Sillva, Warlord of Dark World (character)|Sillva]]" and "[[Goldd, Wu-Lord of Dark World (character)|Goldd]]".
