Jokers (Characters)

The Jokers are a series of creatures that are created by Joe Kirifuda under the help of Deckie. They are creature spirits that often serve Joe in their daily life, but come with many flaws and quirks that they are sometimes very unreliable.

Story
The Jokers are created when Deckie befriended Joe and Joe had him create a deck for him. The process of Deckie creating a card goes by the following:


 * 1) Joe creates an drawing of the creature
 * 2) Joe sticks the drawing in Deckie's mouth and Deckie forcefully swallows it
 * 3) Deckie dances Samba
 * 4) Joe inserts a key on Deckie's rear hole
 * 5) A creature appears from Deckie's mouth

Deckie can also turn these creatures into cards when Joe shows him to the creature and Deckie emits a light. Using this, Joe makes an entire deck of Jokers. However, no jokers resembling Dragons can be made by Deckie as the fallout caused by Dormageddon X, Forbidden Armageddon in the previous season had wiped them out.

In order to make the Jokers spirits alive, hot water must be poured on the card. Therefore, Joe carries a canister of hot water just in case. However, in the creature world, rubbing the card or calling them was needed to make the Joker's come alive. While they are of the Zero Civilization, unlike past Zero Civilization creatures, they have emotions and are friendly towards humans because they originated from the human world. In episode 15, it was revealed that the Jokers reside in another creature world planet far away from the main planet. Depending on the civilization lands that the Jokers were in, their abilities and properties of the specific task changes, which was proven as the food made by The Ramen and Chocolate House was unusually hotter than the ones made in the human world when in the Fire Civilization lands.

Just like other creature spirits in Katta's Era such as Hamukatsu and Katsudon, when Jokers appear outside duels, they appear in 2D. In duels they appear in 3D CGI animation.
