Sherry LeBlanc

Sherry Leblanc, often spelled Cheri or Cherie among fans, is a female Turbo Duelist of French origin.

Biography
She appears after Yusei Fudo gets kidnapped and saved by Akiza Izinski, from an opposing team from the World Riding Grand Prix. She forces Yusei to challenge her in a Turbo Duel, by threatening there is a bomb in his Duel Runner and if he stops, it'll explode.

At first she doesn't reveal her face to them. The duel progresses with Yusei taking most damage and her negating his attacks. Then Sherry stops in the middle of the Duel. Yusei realizes her threat was a bluff, so he stops his Duel Runner too. She takes off her helmet revealing her appearance. As she does, Akiza is surprised to see a woman Turbo Dueling.

Sherry reveals that her goal is to have Yusei join her team, in order to help her gain revenge on Yliaster, who supposedly murdered her parents when she was a child. She was luckily rescued by Mizoguchi, who took her in his care since the incident.

The duel is ultimately called off because of Boss' interruption,in which he tries to crush them with a truck. However, Akiza summons Yusei´s Stardust Dragon to escape the situation, and in the process Sherry acknowledges her as a Psychic Duelist. After Boss tries to leave the scene with his thugs, Mizoguchi appears to beat them up and later joins them.

Deck
Sherry plays a Fleur Holy Knight Deck, which is composed of monsters with different effects ranging from drawing cards to negating and destroying her opponent's traps. Because of that, her Deck takes advantage over Speed World 2's effect which seals Spell Cards so she can preform an easy lockdown on her opponent. Her monsters seem to have a theme reminiscent of the French Revolution, and other important events in the history of France.
