13 Kamen Riders

In Kamen Rider Ryuki, 13 Card Decks were created for the , each who draw upon the strength of their Contract Monster from the mysterious Mirror World, a parallel dimension only they can access. The creator of the Advent Cards has only one rule: that there can be only one Kamen Rider left. The others must be killed, and the sole victor will be granted a single wish, which leads to a conflict known as the Rider Fight.
==History==
Shiro Kanzaki and his sister Yui lived a horrible life, locked up in the attic of their house by their parents. To console themselves, they drew pictures of them living happy lives together, protected by monster guardians. They were content in each others' company, and of the world they created.
Unfortunately, this barely happy life was destroyed when Yui died. Shiro thus replaced her with her Mirror World counterpart, but learned that this would last only until she will be 20 years old. He thus vowed to find a way to save her.
Shiro would spend his time in America as Shiro Takumi and later under his normal identity Kanzaki studying profusely and conducting experiments to open up a Mirror World and create Card Decks. He was successful, creating thirteen Decks. Twelve were to be given out to Riders for the Rider Fight, with the thirteenth as an for his own undead puppet, Odin. Should his plans fail, he would use the Time Vent card to go back to the past and try again making the Rider War outcome be in his favor.
Each and every time though, he would be unsuccessful in recruiting twelve Riders to be killed by his all-powerful servant, Odin, and save Yui's life before her fated deadline due to one reason: Shinji Kido, Kamen Rider Ryuki, a dogged idealist who despite never being chosen by him would somehow become a Rider in each and every timeline to try to stop the fighting between Riders, delaying the war long enough for Yui to die each time. The idea of multiple endings to the series come from this ability.
Finally, Kanzaki realizes that his efforts to save Yui are futile, and that he has to let go. He Time Vents one last time, erasing the Mirror World, the Mirror Monsters, The Rider War and the 13 Riders from history, making it the only timeline where Shinji Kido doesn't become Kamen Rider Ryuki.
==Later history==
Although Shiro Kanzaki changed history, thus negating the Mirror World and Rider Fight, resulting in the 13 Kamen Rider powers never existing and their users never having participated in the Rider War as it never happened, the 13 Riders (primarily Ryuki) returned on several occasions years later to fight alongside other Kamen Riders. The Contract Monsters also returned to give the 13 Riders their strength, while other Mirror Monsters appeared as part of Dai-Shocker, an alliance of all evil organizations and monsters fought by the Kamen Riders, who have ambitions to conquer the Kamen Rider multiverse.
===Decade===
Ryuki was the third of the Nine first Heisei Riders who, represented by their ninth member Wataru Kurenai (Kamen Rider Kiva), gave amnesiac Tsukasa Kadoya the mission of saving the multiverse by becoming the tenth Heisei Rider, Kamen Rider Decade. 
The first half of Decade's journey was visiting the Nine Worlds. One of which, the World of Ryuki, featured alternate versions of the 13 Riders, including Ryuki, who fought in a Kamen Rider Trial as opposed to the Rider War, as well as a fourteenth Rider, Abyss. 
In the World of Faiz, Narutaki, a mysterious self-proclaimed prophet who believed Decade was a destroyer of worlds, had him sent into another dimension to be killed by Kamen Rider Ryuga, but he overcame this with the help of Kamen Rider Diend. 
Ouja was summoned in the World of Hibiki by Kiva-la, a Kivat from the World of Kiva who was affiliated with Narutaki, wielding a kanabou which he uses to summon a Bakegani from the mountain side after knocking Kiva-la aside. 
When Decade discovered his own world and learned his origins, Ryuki was one of several Kamen Riders who fought in the Rider Battle, a tournament which was supposed to decide the strongest Rider to stop the merging of the worlds, but was actually to get the Kamen Riders out of the way so Dai-Shocker could conquer the worlds, with Tsukasa briefly reassuming his role as Dai-Shocker's Great Leader before being deposed. Ouja appeared to fight Dai-Shocker. However, due to his sadistic nature, he sided with Dai-Shocker along with Kamen Rider KickHopper, attempting to stop Diend and Natsumi Hikari only for Diend to summon Gai, Raia, and PunchHopper to fight him and Yaguruma, he fought Gai and Raia the two riders he killed in the series, the outcome of the fight is unknown. Ryuki later returned as part of a force of 23 past Kamen Riders who arrived to help Decade and Diend defeat the Dai-Shocker army in the World of Decade, as well as destroying their fortress and killing off their leaders (with one exception). 
Decade's journey concluded with a second Rider War, unrelated to the war that Ryuki fought, involving the greater Kamen Rider community, fought in a convergence of the Nine Worlds. As Decade had not only failed to stop but actually speeded up the merging of the worlds due to befriending the Riders of the Nine Worlds rather than defeating them. Ryuki, along with the rest of the Nine Heisei Riders and most, if not all of the 13 Riders, were among the many Kamen Riders who fought Decade and were defeated by him, Ryuki himself being defeated while fighting alongside Kamen Rider Blade
Decade was killed by Natsumi Hikari as Kamen Rider Kiva-la. With this Decade's roles as the destroyer and the connector were fulfilled, restoring all the worlds and Kamen Riders, including Ryuki. Decade himself was restored by the A.R. Nine Heisei Riders. Shinji Tatsumi, AR Ryuki, would go on to help Decade stop the Neo-Organism to continue Decade's story. 
===Let's Go Kamen Riders===
Ryuki appeared fighting Mirror Monsters as one of the 22 main Riders who came to help Kamen Rider OOO, Den-O, New Den-O and the Double Riders fight Shocker in an alternate timeline unintentionally caused by the Greeed Ankh, where it had conquered the world and allied itself with all the evil organizations which fought the Kamen Riders. Though this change in the timeline seemingly erased the legacy of the Kamen Riders from history, as explained by the Owner of the DenLiner, even though Rider history was changed, the people's memories hadn't changed.
After the riders were united, they faced off against the Great Leader of Shocker who, after being defeated by OOO's Tamashiy Combo, remerged as the all powerful Rock Great Leader. The 13 Riders were united when the other 12 Riders arrived as part of a group of extra Rider reinforcements led by Kamen Rider Birth. The 13 Riders along with all the other riders got on their motorcycles and performed the "All Rider Break", ramming into the Rock Great Leader and defeating it once and for all.

==World of Ryuki==
In the A.R World of Ryuki, the 13 Riders (14 Riders, if Kamen Rider Abyss is included) serve as a judgmental system for law. When there is one rider left, based on what the rider thinks, he can chose if the suspect is either innocent or guilty. Such an example could be Natsumi Hikari, a subordinate who world-jumps with Kamen Rider Decade, was blamed for killing an Editor-in-Chief of Atashi Journal. However, this matter was resolved by Shinji Tatsumi, A.R.Kamen Rider Ryuki, using Kamen Rider Odin's Time Vent too take him back in time, along with Kamen Rider Decade, to kill the real culprit, Kamen Rider Abyss.

==Notes==
*It is unknown how the Riders gained their names or how others automatically knew them, unless one assumes Kanzaki told them at some point.
*Despite the Rider Fight supposed to have 13 Kamen Riders partipanting, only Verde, Femme, and Ryuga didn't make an appearance in the series' main timeline, instead appearing in movies/specials. However this could be explained with a few following factors;
**If count Goro Yura and the three puppets who've became Kamen Rider Odin, there were thirteen people involved in the Rider Fight. Kanzaki never explicitly stated that the Kamen Riders had to be unique riders.
**Or it is possible that Verde, Femme, and Ryuga did exist in the series' main timeline and were defeated off-screen in some way.
*The 13 Riders appear to be a homage to the original Kamen Rider manga published in 1971, which contains a chapter called The 13 Kamen Riders. However, only 10 official Kamen Riders (discounting the artificial Alternatives) were featured in the TV series. Femme and Ryuga appeared exclusively in the movie Episode Final and the TV special 13 Riders, as well as Verde appearing in only the special.
