(*)Nuclear(*)Winterland(*)

[notcleverusername]

This is a winter/holiday theme as it was created in December. I decided to be a little silly with it for various reasons.
[spoiler=Theme]This archetype is based on "nuclear winter", which I came up with thanks to showering, like many of my ideas. The monsters are all based on radioactive mutants who share names with classic holiday and/or wintery icons. The randomness aspect is due to spontaneous mutations from radiation. Names are made to sound stereotypically Russian. Some of them have a known factual basis as they are pulled from a Google baby names site.

[spoiler=Thematic Structure]The archetype is structured around the number 6. The maximum result of a die roll is 6; each main monster is assigned a focus on one of the 6 Turn Phases; each main monster gets one of the 6 Attributes. I probably should have tried to make the S/Ts match 1 of In retrospect, I should've made the 7th monster, the boss monster and an anomaly, DIVINE. It would have maximized the silliness. Although, now that I've looked at it again, dual FIRE/WATER is pretty silly too.
Every monster has a coin flip and a die roll effect that is tied to their Turn Phase. Also, the level 5 and 6 can be Special Summoned by effects tied to die roll and coin flip respectively. Wendigo, the aforementioned anomaly, can be used during any Turn Phase.
Rather than the usual approach of certain results being good and others being extremely bad, I made all results good.

[spoiler=The Setting]
Nuclear Winterland
Field Spell
The original ATK and DEF of all monsters except "Wasteland(*)Yvendigo" are halved. Face-up monsters on the field with effects that roll a six-sided die (or dice) or flip a coin (or coins) gain the appropriate effects.

• Die or Dice: Once per turn, if you roll a die (or dice) for this card's effect, you can choose to re-roll the di©e. After you roll a di©e for this card's effect, this card gains ATK and DEF equal to the total result x50 until the end of the turn.
• Coin: Once per turn, if you flip a coin (or coins) for this card's effect, you can choose to redo the coin toss(es). After you flip a coin(s) for this card's effect, this card cannot be destroyed by card effects until the end of the turn.

 

[spoiler=The Monsters]
Radioactive(*)Rudolf
Level 1 DARK Beast
500/100
Once per Battle Phase, at the start of the Battle Phase: Roll a six-sided die, then all monsters your opponent controls lose ATK and DEF equal to the result x100. Once per Battle Phase, if this card attacks or is attacked: Flip a coin. If it is Heads, add 1 level 6 or lower "(*)" monster from your Deck to your hand. If it is Tails, add 1 "(*)" Spell/Trap card from your Deck to your hand. If this card is destroyed by your opponent (by battle or by card effect): You can Set 1 "Rudolf(*)s Reckless Ride" from your Graveyard or directly from your Deck.
Rudolph the red-nosed workhorse. It beams radiation from its glowing nose to weaken its opponents. The denizens of the wasteland depend on it to ferry them to and fro, but its travel schedule is unpredictable thanks to its dementia.
(Battle Phase - DARK - coin flip edited to trigger on attacks)

Frosty the Snowman with a freeze ray built into its body, as well as a variety of other technological enhancements. The radiation that emits from the Magical Hat that forms his power core attracts nearby members of the wasteland to him.
(Main Phase 1 - FIRE - coin flip effect edited to always have a result)

Based on Ded Moroz, the Russian version of Santa according to Wikipedia. He is a bloated corpse that was reanimated from radioactive energy collecting in his body. The radiation he emits can be used to jumpstart other denizens of the wasteland that are "hibernating" when they have run out of energy. He is accompanied by Snegurochka, a part of his body that detached from him and gained sentience due to radiation poisoning.
(Main Phase 2 - WIND - no changes)

Homely(*)Himalayeti
Level 4 EARTH Beast-Warrior

A Yeti, also known as an abominable snowman, although I edited the name because I already had to deal with another y alliteration. No one knows if it was a human or a beast before it mutated into the monstrosity it is now. It emits so much energy that it affects communications and vision around it. It exhibits canine behaviors, such as digging holes, hunting, and playfulness.
(Standby Phase - EARTH - no changes)

Apokalipsis(*)Yolka
Level 5 LIGHT Plant
900/2500
If you activate a card or effect on the field that rolls 1 six-sided die: You can call odd or even, and if you call it correctly, Special Summon this card from your hand.

• Heads: Destroy 1 monster your opponent controls.
• Tails: Destroy 1 Spell/Trap card your opponent controls.

If this card is destroyed by your opponent (by battle or by card effect): You can Set 1 "Yolka(*)s Yuletide Yizkor" from your Graveyard or directly from your Deck.
Based on the New Year's Tree, Russia's equivalent of the Christmas Tree, but it heralds the end of times instead of a new beginning (Apokalipsis is Russian for Apocalypse, according to Goog Translate). It appears to be a cyborg plant whose only purpose is to destroy, and the gamma rays it fires from its "branches" suggest a possible cause for the wasteland's existence.
(End Phase - LIGHT - no changes.)

Ψney(*)Dzhek
Level 6 WATER Psychic
2300/1300
If you activate a card or effect on the field that flips 1 coin: You can call it, and if you call it correctly, Special Summon this card from your hand. During your Draw Phase, before your Normal Draw: Roll a six-sided die. Look at cards from the top of your Deck equal to the result, then place them on the top and/or bottom of your Deck in any order. After your normal Draw, you can: Flip a coin and apply the appropriate effect.

• Heads: Draw 1 card.
• Tails: Send the top card of your Deck to the Graveyard.

You can only use each of this effect of "Ψney(*)Dzhek" once per turn. If this card is destroyed by your opponent (by battle or by card effect): You can Set 1 "Dhzek(*)s Dzhreary Dzhenerosity" from your Graveyard or directly from your Deck.
Based on Jack Frost, known as "Morozko" by the Russians. "Dzhek" means Jack in Russian, according to Goog Translate, while "Iney" means Frost, with the first letter replaced by the Greek letter Psi as a reference to a manga psychic. Dzhek was an ordinary human before he succumbed to radiation that altered his brain, allowing him to randomly see glimpses of the future. His efforts to affect the future sometimes lead to even more destruction.
(Draw Phase - WATER - no changes.)

Wasteland(*)Yvendigo
Level 7 FIRE/WATER Reptile
2300/1300
You can only control 1 "Wasteland(*)Yvendigo". Must be Special Summoned from your hand (during either player's turn) by Tributing "(*)" monsters you control (min.2), and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways. If this card is Special Summoned this way: Flip coins equal to the number of Tributed monsters. Banish cards on the field up to the number of Heads and draw cards up to the number of Tails. Once per turn, during your turn, you can: Roll a six-sided die. Treat your opponent's Turn Phases as numbers 1-6, counting from the Draw Phase to the End Phase, and during your opponent's next turn, skip the Turn Phase that has the same number as the result (this is a Quick effect). If this card is destroyed by your opponent (by battle or by card effect): You can Special Summon 1 "(*)" monster from your Deck or Graveyard.
Based on the Wendigo, a sort of werewolf-like monster with an insatiable craving for human flesh. It appears from warp holes that occur whenever there is a large concentration of radiation in a small area. Though its existence is an enigma, its advanced spacetime manipulation techniques suggest it is from a distant time period in the future. For some reason, Dzhek feels a repulsive solidarity with it...
