Background
ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

Shinobu Shinomiya is the head of the royal family; Shinomiya Family and the father of Suzaku Shinomiya (篠宮 スザク) and Tomoe Shinomiya (篠宮 伴恵). Ever since his wife's death, he was drastically changed into a cold-hearted and ruthless man. He was also a professor of St. Francesca Academy, but, in reality, he is the most corrupt teacher who has always bribed and blackmailed many female students and forced them to do his bidding like "served" him, just to satisfy his urges. He is also helping his son escape from the punishment by using his position as a professor of the school.

However, his times as the teacher of this school and to repeatedly forced many female students to "served" him has come to an end, as Yuuki Kusanagi managed to gain the evidence about both of his and Suzaku's wrongdoings with the help of his family and the victims' testimonies, thus, he was fired from his job and were sent to the jail for a very long time for corruption and sexual assaults while his son was expelled from the school and was sent to the institution for his bullying and violent manner. No one would ever be heard from them again...

But, what they don't know is, Shinobu and his son were sent in time to the alternate China, where every major figure have become the beautiful girls and they've gained the ability to transform into Kamen Rider Duke (仮面ライダーデューク Kamen Raidā De~yūku) and Kamen Rider Bujin Gaim (仮面ライダー武神鎧武［ブジン・ガイム］Kamen Raidā Bujin Gaimu) respectively.

After hearing about Yuuki Kusanagi and his friends is also sent in time to ancient China, Shinobu and Suzaku joined with the White Clothes in their quest to destroy this world and most of all, to kill Yuuki Kusanagi for their revenge.

Arms
ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

Like the other Sengoku Riders and Genesis Riders, Kamen Rider Duke's forms are called Arms (アームズ Āmuzu). His Genesis Driver announces "Soda" (ソーダ Sōda) before every transformation.

By pushing the Genesis Driver's Seaboll Compressor into the Energy Lockseed after transforming from one to two times, Duke can activate one of two finishing moves based on her current Arms form:

　・Squash (スカッシュ Sukasshu)
　・Sparking (スパーキング Supākingu)

In addition to the Genesis Driver's finishing moves, Duke can perform a Sonic Volley (ソニックボレー Sonikku Borē) finishing attack by inserting an Energy Lockseed into the Energy Drive Bay of his Sonic Arrow.

・Genetic Ride Wear

Kamen Rider Duke's Genetic Ride Wear

Kamen Rider Duke's Genetic Ride Wear (Dragon Energy Arms)

The Genetic Ride Wear (ゲネティックライドウェア Genetikku Raido Uēa) is Duke's default form undersuit which is briefly seen during Duke's transformation sequence, before the Armor Part attaches. However, this form is completely vulnerable to any incoming attacks when shot at directly in the suit, rather than at the Arms that is descending down on the Rider.

When using the Dragon Energy Arms, Duke's Genetic Ride Wear receives minor modifications, denoting it as a particularly powerful Arms.

Kamen Rider Zangetsu Shin's Genesis Driver

Genesis Driver w/Folding Band

The Genesis Driver (ゲネシスドライバー Geneshisu Doraibā) is the transformation belt for the Genesis Riders. It utilizes powerful artificial Lockseeds known as Energy Lockseeds (エナジーロックシード Enajī Rokkushīdo). Unlike the Sengoku Drivers, the Genesis Drivers didn't have DNA Restriction features and the Genetic Ride Wear undersuits are programmed within the Energy Lockseeds rather than onto the Driver itself.

The Genesis Driver is composed of the following parts:

　・Seaboll Compressor (シーボルコンプレッサー Shīboru Konpuressā) - The handle. Pressing it into the Genesis Driver releases the Energy Lockseed's power and allows for transformation and deathblows.

　・Genesis Core (ゲネシスコア Geneshisu Koa) - A connecting terminal where Energy Lockseeds are inserted. Because plans to mass-produce the Sengoku Driver ran parallel to the Genesis Driver's production, it can be removed and attached to the Sengoku Driver.

　・Vascular Duct (バスキュラーダクト Basukyurā Dakuto) - A straw-like pipe that runs from the main body to the Concentrate Pod. It sends energy extracted from an inserted Energy Lockseed to the Concentrate Pod.

　・Concentrate Pod (コンセントレイトポッド Konsentraatio Poddo) - The clear cup-shaped energy pod located towards the bottom. It stores and stabilises any liquified energy extracted from an Energy Lockseed.

　・Lift-off Switch (リフトオフスイッチ Rifuto-ofu Suitchi) - A switch that releases the Genesis Driver from the user. Located on the right top section.

Like the Sengoku Driver, the Genesis Driver is usually only in its buckle form. If the user wants to use the belt, all they have to do is place it on their waist and the Folding Band (フォルディングバンド Forudingu Bando) will automatically wrap around their body, fastening the belt.

To transform, the user opens the lock on the Energy Lockseed, which causes a dimensional opening into the Helheim Forest to materialize above them and an Armor Part that corresponds to the Energy Lockseed used to appear from it. Afterwards, the user attaches the Energy Lockseed onto the belt's Drive Bay (ドライブベイ Doraibu Bei) and closes the lock to secure it into the Lock On Arm (ロックオンアーム Rokku On Āmu). Finally, the user pushes the Seaboll Compressor (シーボルコンプレッサー Shīboru Konpuressā) juicer in, which extracts the juice from the Energy Lockseed itself through the Vascular Duct (バスキュラーダクト Basukyurā Dakuto) and into the glass-like Concentrate Pod (コンセントレイトポッド Konsentraatio Poddo) at the bottom, causing the Armor Part to fall on top of the user's head and the Driver to announce the Arms granted, along with its corresponding music (or in the Lemon Energy and Matsubokkuri Energy Lockseed's case, its corresponding phrase).

When the Seaboll Compressor is pushed in between one and two times, a Rider can activate a certain ability.

　・Once: The Squash (スカッシュ Sukasshu) function can either power up a Rider's Sonic Arrow for a Rider Slash or trigger an alternate finishing attack.

　・Twice: The Sparking (スパーキング Supākingu) function can either enhance a Rider's finishing attack to its full potential, allowing the user to initiate a Rider Kick when infused with the fruit-shaped/nut-shaped energy of their Arms, or temporarily convert the user's Armor Part into its original fruit/nut form to spin and use as a shield.

・Lockseeds

The Lockseeds (ロックシード Rokkushīdo) are mysterious devices that are the source of the Sengoku Riders' powers. They all have powers associated with fruits, seeds, berries, and nuts. Lockseeds were originally fruits that grow on trees in the Helheim Forest.

The Inves love Lockseeds and Helheim's fruits, regarding them as their favorite food. However, if an Inves consumes a Lockseed, it assumes its Advanced State, and if it consumes yet another Lockseed, then that Inves will evolve into its Strengthened Form.

When a person wearing a Sengoku Driver/Genesis Driver picks a Helheim fruit, they will quickly convert into Lockseeds.

If a Sengoku Rider summons an Inves in a battle, then they will be fully materialized in the real world, however, if a Genesis Rider summons an Inves, one Lockseed can call in three at a time. If one manages to jailbreak a Lockseed, they can summon fully materialized Inves as well without being an Sengoku Rider, although there is a chance for the Lockseed to malfunction.

Lockseeds are given ranks, from D to A, but it is unknown if either the number of the Lockseed, the chance of rarity of such a Lockseed being found, or a combination of the two makes the Lockseed's ranking.

A-Class Lockseeds are normally unbreakable (though they can be devoured by an Inves or destroyed by powerful attacks). Given their powerful nature, they are useful for both transformation as an Armored Rider or to summon a high-class Inves. One drawback is that the summoned Inves is in its Advanced State, and if said Inves consumes a Lockseed that summoned it or an entirely different Lockseed, it will evolve into a second form of itself called a Strengthened State (強化体 Kyōka-tai).

Beyond the normal variety of Lockseeds, there exists another brand of Lockseed in the form of Lock Vehicle Lockseeds (ロックビークルロックシード Rokku Bīkuru Rokkushīdo). They are indicated by their rougher design and their theme being based on flowers. Once unlocked, the Lock Vehicles will unfold from their Lockseed Modes into their Vehicle Modes and have the capacity to breach into the Helheim Forest by forming a crack (either at a certain speed or with a beam). Due to these Lockseeds being made mainly as a mode of transportation, Lock Vehicle Lockseeds do not have a Lockseed ranking.

A certain organization has managed to created fully functional artificial and more powerful Lockseeds Energy Lockseeds (エナジーロックシード Enajī Rokkushīdo) that sacrifices the ability to summon a normal Arms Weapons when used in a Driver, instead of summoning a Sonic Arrow (with the exception of Kamen Rider Kurokage Shin). These particular Lockseeds can only be used by a New Generation Rider with a Genesis Driver, though there is a roundabout way Sengoku Driver-wearing Sengoku Riders can use Energy Lockseeds. In terms of rankings, Energy Lockseeds are given the general rank of Class S, outranking even the more powerful nature-converted Lockseeds (except skilled users of the Suika Lockseed). Like A-Classed Lockseeds, they are normally unbreakable.

The Genesis Bow Sonic Arrow (創世弓ソニックアロー Sōseikyū Sonikku Arō), more commonly referred to as the Sonic Arrow, is a bladed bow-like side weapon used primarily by any Kamen Riders who transforms using a fruit-based Class-S Energy Lockseed. Non fruit-based Class-S Energy Lockseeds provide an Arms Weapon instead.

The bow is a modernized bow with blades on the front of the bow, allowing its users to use it as a melee weapon. It features a laser point tracer to aid the user in landing important shots. Depending on the Energy Lockseed the user is equipped with, the Sonic Arrow can serve different purposes, serving a wide range of utility.
