Number 104: Masquerade V
- Rank 4
- LIGHT
- Spellcaster / Xyz
- 2700 / 1200
- 3 Level 4 monsters
Detach 1 material to add any "Barian's" Spell or Trap from your Deck to your hand. The limit applies to each copy, so two Masquerade V can use it twice in one turn.
An Xyz Monster summoned using Masquerade V on the field as material gains a mandatory trigger for when it is Xyz Summoned. Your opponent can banish 4 monsters with different Attributes and 1 Spell from their Deck. If they don't, you banish the top 10 cards of their Deck. Rank-Ups count, because V Umbral Horror and both Barian's Force Spells treat the summon as an Xyz Summon.
and can each count as 2 materials for it, so one of them plus one more Level 4 monster is enough.
Early listings called it Number 104: Masquerade Vain. It is a different card from the 2013 , but both count as "Masquerade" Xyz Monsters for V Umbral Horror and Barian's Hope.

R4R5 Number
No Spell
Banish it from your GY, targeting a Masquerade Xyz Monster you control, to Special Summon a "Number" one Rank higher on top of it. That is normally C104 Victory, which picks up Masquerade V's banish effect on arrival.
-
Any R4R5 Number C
Masquerade V adds it
Turns any Rank 4 Xyz Monster into any Rank 5 "Number C". It is the backup when V Umbral Horror is banished or negated. The same Spell turns a Number 39: Utopia into Number C39: Utopia Ray V.

R4R5 same Type
Masquerade V adds it
Needs the same Type, so from Masquerade V it reaches either Number C104. It also moves 1 material from one of your opponent's monsters onto the new monster, which still gains the banish effect.

R5 Number CR7 CXyz
No Spell
Xyz Summoned from any one Number C101 to C107 you control, keeping its materials. On top of C104 Victory it arrives with 3 materials and 3000 ATK, and your opponent can't add cards from their Main Deck to their hand except by drawing.
