Someone really likes Stella as a half dragon girl…

These are cards from “Rising of the Aurora”, the upcoming Rush Duel Core Booster Pack.

Prior “Clad Dragon” cards

Theme Lore:

This is a world where enormous dragons called “Clad Dragons” exist.

The plants and minerals scattered about their habitats are traded as materials known as “Dragon Loot” at high prices. (1)

Many explorers and researchers set off for the Clad Dragondoms with dreams of striking it rich.

Stella, a young female explorer just starting off, one day encounters Vezzal, the highest-ranked Clad Dragon.

Stella held her breath and somehow managed to survive, but the scales of Vezzal she picked up inflicted her with a curse.

Will the curse consume her body? With the help of her senpai, she manages to find out a clue about how to lift the curse.

For some reason, the curse’s spread subsides when she’s together with the Clad Dragon whelp, Llates.

And so begins her journey to break the curse.
