Lucien Grimley

Lucien Grimley, known in Japan as Ikaku Tachibana「橘一角」(Tachibana Ikaku) is a duelist who enters the Genex tournament from North Academy. A failing duelist originally from North Academy, Lucien makes a deal with the malevolent spirit of the forbidden and cursed Grim Reaper (voiced by Scottie Ray / Shinobu Matsumoto) card (Possibly an incarnation of Reaper of the Cards) sealed by the school, selling his soul to obtain incredible draw power. The reaper imbues his right hand with the symbol of himself. Although he claims that his goal is to be victor of the Genex tournament, his true wish was to experience a trusting bond with his deck. He eventually loses to Jaden but promises not to lose trust in himself again. To that end, he threw the Reaper's card away, committed to winning without its assistance.

Lucien is also notable for being the first duelist in the entirety of the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime series to be portrayed as left-handed, or ambidextrous. He duels with his right hand while influenced by the Grim Reaper, but is able to switch to his left hand with ease.

Deck
Lucien plays a Reaper Deck. Using various Spell Cards to force his opponents to automatically play or set cards on the field, he builds up to a certain number before activating Slash Draw to instantly wipe out his opponents' Life Points after he draws another copy from his deck. As a back-up, Lucein's Invincible Demise Lord can revive itself with near invincibility to destruction, allowing it to survive the effect of Slash Draw, which would destroy it under normal circumstances.
