Atem attempts to return to the afterlife with the Millennium Puzzle after assisting Yugi and Kaiba, only to suddenly have his spirit (although he is corporeal) transported to an island he does not recognize, and has never seen before. [attr="class","rcappleft2"] [attr="class","rcappleft3"] [attr="class","rcappleft4"] [attr="class","rcapplefttitle"]CHARACTER ABILITIES [attr="class","rcappleft51"] KING OF GAMESA firm believer the Heart of the Cards, Atem is a natural master at nearly any game of his choosing. There have only been a handful of times in his lifetime (and afterlife) that he has lost a game. This, compared to a countless amount of victories. One of his losses was with what he believes to be his successor in every way, Yugi Mutou. Learning how to quit when the consequences of winning were too great and how exactly to accept defeat remained a major part of Atem's journey with Yugi, but even after having learned this, he does not go down without a fight. Atem will accept any challenge given to him. Even though Yugi has taught him kindness, Atem still struggles with his pride from time to time as it is both his greatest strength and his greatest weakness. GAMES OF DARKNESSAs Pharaoh and as a former part of the Millennium Puzzle (as well as its current wielder - or one of them, anyway), Atem has the ability to play a Shadow Game with an opponent of his choosing that accepts the challenge. No matter the rules of the game, it is unlike any other. Through sorcery, a Shadow Game can not be interrupted and cheating is strictly forbidden, punishable by death. The winner of a Shadow Game can inflict a Penalty Game punishment upon the loser (or cheater). He is capable of giving supernatural punishments. This punishment typically involves an a gruesome illusion being cast on the loser's soul. However, Atem has long since stopped his use of Penalty Games.

From ruling over Egypt in his original lifetime to being a steady part of his successor's life in the modern world, then to the afterlife and back again for the slightest of moments (though that one moment would change everything)...Atem is no stranger to unfamiliar lands or mystical events. In his existence he has made several mistakes. He would not say he has seen everything life has to offer—surely with the endless possibilities of life there is always something new around the corner, even if you are immortal. Certainly with the way he is aged mentally well beyond the years he truly lived, he has seen enough. Truth be told, a battle rages on in his beating soul even now. There is an exhaustion there, that would want nothing more than to stay in the afterlife and sleep, sleep for as long as he could (which would be forever, as you can achieve anything you want in your personal heaven). But the stronger part, his pride, refused it. He would like to keep watch over all of his friends and all of their lineage as it continues. And as long as he is able, he would do anything to protect them.[break][break] I vow never to go against your wishes again.He promised Yugi. He did not have to, but he did, and he intends to keep his word. He told him they would never truly be apart, and the one way to make that a reality was to watch his movements, to listen for when Yugi would call to him. Yes, perhaps it was prideful of him to interfere with the world of the living. To return to the puzzle. His pride would be his downfall once more, doomed to walk between all dimensions, forever a dark guardian. A shadow, for as long as the Earth spins. Is it a penalty for that which he inflicted on so many others? When he opens his eyes and sees the sand, he's relieved. It fades into nothingness as he realizes this is not the sands of his home, his desert, but of a coast unrecognized. A frown would cross his face, gripping the chains of the puzzle harsher. Let it leave an indent in his bronze skin. There is silence, nothing but the waves beyond him crashing. He closes his eyes. Takes a deep breath. When he opens them, people in the distance are looking at him. A stranger, unsurprised by his appearance, calling him over. [break][break] You have but one more task to complete.And Atem knows they are alive. From their bored expression, currently devoid of gratitude for the time they had been given, the lazy wave, their clothing, more akin to what Yugi's friends would wear. If he was a lesser being, he might feel resentment for the way they carry themselves, maybe he would choose to let darkness consume him once more, the way he was when he took it upon himself to protect Yugi no matter the cost. No matter what Yugi thought of his methods. Those days were long past, and he would let them pass. Like the sand of the beaches retreating into the blue sea he knows is behind him, his memories leave him, and he must focus on the present. Atem must learn what he can from this, his posture straightening and putting his hand up in acknowledgement, to let this person know he is listening, listening to the living as well as the dead, as he always has. Such is the way of a Pharaoh.[break][break] Atem must learn to let it go once more.
