(Otoharada) Ralf

Another work thanks to the inspiration gave me.

Otoharada Ralf is the descendant of Hiroto Honda/Tristan Taylor in Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's timeline and also the last protagonist of my series Yu-Gi-Oh Zokusei. His last name is in Parenthesis because despite the fact his full name is "Otoharada Ralf" very few know his full name and refere to him simply as "Ralf" instead. He has almost the same appearance as his ansestor plus one small antenna on his forehead.

Yup. In this timeline Honda is a duelist too (surprisingly this is one of the best scetches I have done for this series so far and it is my first time of trying to draw Hiroto Honda's character)

Bio:

Name: Otoharada Ralf (音原田 ラルフ)
Age: 27
Deck: Rock
Signature Card: Earth Serpent (土蛇)
Duelist Rank: Very Good

Hair Color: Brown
Eye Color: Brown
Favorite Food: Roast Beef and Gyūdon (Beef bowl)
Last Favorite Food: Mushrooms
Born in: Satellite

Known as: The Mole

Personality: Ralf is a man with many talents, tall and well-built, he was trained to join the Security department. However being the only one from his collegues who was born in Satellite made him hated by them. As a result he was framed for an illegality he hadn't committed and so he quit. Later on he started earning his living with Underground Duels in Satellite. Then was when he got the name "Mole" for the first time. Later on he retired somewhere in Satellite and started becoming "the man for all tasks". Sometimes he is a smuggler and sometimes he passes on information or hacks into Security systems to help his "clients". Usually he asks to be paid in any way possible for his services (meaning either with money, with exchange of information etc) but sometimes he does it for free either because of his friends or for his own fun.
He appears to be a lay-off guy who prefers his peace and quiet rather than getting in trouble but in reality he is just the opposite. He doesn't mind the danger (especially when he is paid well) and he can practically go in any dark or unfriendly part of Satellite to get what he wants. He has personally come close with gangs and "mafias" of Satellite that work underground. He can practically handle any "Godfather" possible and he can tell who to trust who not who to have close and who to be aware of.

His name "Mole" became part of him ever since, not only because of his underground working or his former underground dueling but also by the fact he has done many illegal acts and he has been smugling stuff for years or hacking and yet he could never get caught by Security. His name even has become some kind of "ghost" to them, almost all of them had heard of his existance but very few of them have confirmed it for sure. Public knows him either by the name "Mole" or by his small name "Ralf".
One of the few people that knows his full name is Joe Johnson his childish friend. Despite the fact Ralf has countless Allies and interfaces everywhere he has only a few people he calls "friends". In fact he is the last living friend that grew up with Joe despite the fact they followed different paths in life. He has a loud and sincere laughter and he keeps his cool even if you have a pistol to his temple. He can read people's faces with a single glance and is almost never wrong about what he thinks of them.
He is honest and has a strong sense of honor. Also his training as part of the Security made him a good "bodyguard" to whoever needs him. In other words a "solid rock" to lean on.

Ralf's deck's Attribute is Earth and most of his cards contain the words "Earth" or "Rock" in them. His signature card is "Earth Serpent" a Synchro monster with high defence. He is not great fond of D-Wheels and Riding Duels but he has an old D-Wheel he uses occasionally. He doesn't have clothes for Riding Duels like Joe due to the fact he lives in Satellite so he wears his usual clothes that usually contain comfortable and spacious pants and comfortable boots and jackets with many pockets where he can store up stuff such as his tools, his several papers and stuff. He sometimes wears gloves that leave his fingers bare.

Other Trivia:

His name "Otoharada" 音原田 is consisted by the Kanji oto 音 which means "sound", hara 原 which means "medow" or "plain" and da 田 which means "rice field"

His personality and character was inspired by Saiga from Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's

His favorite drink is straight Vodka

His parents went missing right when he entered the Security department

Despite the fact his name is not Japanese he is not from another country. Saint Raphael was his mother's favorite Saint and that is why he was named after him. His father wanted to name him Takashi (高市) with the kanji taka 高 for "high" or "expensive" and shi 市 for "city".

He is the oldest and second tallest of the group (After Masahiro Seto)

His name Otoharada (音原田) is written the same way with Otoharada Kurou (音原田 九郎) from the anime "Death Note"
