== Biography ==

=== Yu-Gi-Oh! GX ===
In ''Yu-Gi-Oh! GX'', the Sacred Beasts are legendary entities whose cards were sealed by Kagemaru beneath Duel Academy, behind the Spirit Gates. These gates require seven Spirit Keys to open. Although Kagemaru initially failed to unlock their power, the Sacred Beasts were prophesied to bring chaos and darkness upon the world if ever released.

The Shadow Riders sought to acquire the Spirit Keys to awaken the Sacred Beasts. However, opening the gates required a strong dueling presence, making attempts like Don Zaloog’s theft of the keys ineffective. To counter this threat, seven top duelists from Duel Academy were chosen to guard the keys: [[Jaden Yuki]], [[Zane Truesdale]], [[Chazz Princeton]], [[Alexis Rhodes]], [[Bastion Misawa]], [[Professor Banner|Lyman Banner]] (secretly a Shadow Rider), and [[Vellian Crowler]]. Although the Shadow Riders were defeated, Kagemaru used the dueling energy generated from the battles to awaken the Sacred Beasts.

In exchange for their release, the Sacred Beasts began restoring Kagemaru’s youth by absorbing energy from Duel Monster spirits. Kagemaru summoned Raviel as part of his strategy to dominate, but Jaden Yuki’s resilience led to Kagemaru’s downfall. Following his defeat, the Sacred Beasts were sealed once again.

In the third season, after Duel Academy was transported to an alternate dimension, a Yubel-possessed Marcel Bonaparte retrieved the Sacred Beasts and constructed a deck centered around them. This deck enhanced the speed of summoning the Sacred Beasts and facilitated the summoning of their fusion form, ''Chaos Phantasm Armityle''.

Later, [[Jesse Anderson]], also possessed by Yubel, used a deck designed to quickly summon the Sacred Beasts and ''Armityle''. Although Yubel did not use the Sacred Beasts in her final duel with Jaden, Raviel appeared in her deck. Following Yubel’s merger with Jaden, the ultimate fate of the Sacred Beasts remains uncertain, though it is presumed that Jaden returned them to their resting place.
