Noah Burdette

Noah Burdette is one of the four main characters in Intertwined.

Personality
Noah is perhaps the most eccentric of the four main characters. He's awkward, zones out during conversations, and is rather difficult to get to know due to his pushing away of many people who try to approach him. At work, he prefers to keep to himself and get the job done rather than try to socialize with others. Many people think that he's just socially awkward, but it's later revealed that he suffers from severe schizophrenia, where he frequently experiences hallucinations of people who are out to get him, or dark Duelists who he can never defeat. This has caused him to completely mistrust others, and he frequently has a very difficult time even determining whether a certain person is real or not.

Noah seems to find some solace in online relationships, however, where he has a more concrete idea of fantasy and reality. He shows more of his true personality when talking to people over the internet; he's kind, caring, loyal, sweet, and has a penchant for cute pictures and creative stories. As a result of these relationships and the advice given from his online friends, he stabilizes a little bit over time, and comes to also show these traits in person. For a person who is ranked as the #2 Duelist in the world, he is uncharacteristically modest, never talking down on lower-ranked individuals, and respecting everyone's skill. This is in stark contrast to the person ranked #1, who has no respect for anyone a certain level below him.

Original Timeline
In the original timeline preceding the story, there was no social networking anomaly that helped Noah stabilize his mental condition to any degree. He became a shut-in, getting by with only occasional tournament winnings, and grew increasingly self-destructive. This behavior allowed the dark side of to easily defeat him in an illegal, unranked match and steal "" for himself, which would contribute to his rise in power.

Deck (incomplete)
Noah plays an Odd-Eyes Deck capable of performing Fusion, Synchro, and Xyz Summons to overwhelm the enemy. His Deck is fueled by Odd-Eyes Land, a powerful card that allows him to call "Odd-Eyes Dragon" every turn, even if it's destroyed by the opponent.
