History:
Born in Beijing, Sima Yunru's early life was much better than most. He was blessed with an outstanding intellect, one that made the harsh school years of Asian children only slightly more difficult than walking at a brisk pace. His skill in the academics did not go unnoticed. Not by his parents, not by his teachers, and certainly not by his classmates. Yunru was not only smart, he was greedy. Despite his parents being quite well off -- his father the head of a large firm in Beijing, his mother his secretary, Yunru had an insatiable taste for pampering himself. His intelligence offered him a way to get that and more. He did homework, wrote reports, helped his classmates cheat on exams, all for the best price. He auctioned off his skills and felt no less the genius for it. While the adults expected him to go far, Yunru did not care what he did as long as money could continue to buy his happiness. And it did.
It was by accident he was introduced to Duel Monsters. One of his 'clients' paid a furious Yunru in rare cards, ones he accepted only at the others tearful promises that they would be the price he asked for. And valuable they were. Yunru received nearly double the payment he requested. The obsession struck. The game was simple enough and rich enough. It became no better than a gambling problem. Purchasing new cards and selling the best, fighting to win cards to pawn off to the highest bidder: Yunru found himself hooked. So much so that he found how deep the ties of Duel Monsters run. Groups of people willing to hack off arms and legs for certain cards to fill their collections or their decks. Black markets of sorts that would kill for what they wanted. It wasn't a child's game anymore, it was a trap, one that Yunru fell happily into.
He moved to Japan, continued his schooling, this time at the center of the Duel Monsters craze. He found groups of people willing to hire him for cards. For a while, he was even among the Rare Hunters, but it was brief, their leader erratic and not concerned with the monetary value at all. Yunru found another group, nameless but effective, one he works with today. And with them, he has power and money. He may not lead them, but they know his strengths. Theft, manipulation, physical harm: Yunru is not above any of it. And because of it, Sima Yunru can have anything he wants.
