I'll admit, I laughed a bit. But yes, that suits Ba'al very well.

Not an objection exactly, but you misspelled Judgement. When referring to the Major Arcana, it's traditional to use the older formal spelling of the word rather than the colloquial American English spelling.

Also what made you pick Judgement for Morito? XD

... Nonon has essentially none of the qualities associated with Justice.

I think Archer would be The Tower, not Death. Though you could make a good case for The Magician. Depends whether you'd want to focus on his role as a Counter Guardian and his cynical attitude, or the underlying personality. Death, however, is all about change; not really accurate.

Honestly these ones were the ones I was most dissatisfied with. Mostly because nothing really fit them, or fit someone else better.

The Tower: "Omen of doom or disaster, ironic demise, destructive change."
Death: "Metamorphosis, deep change, regeneration and cycles."
The Magician: "Trickery, manipulation, action, initiative, self-confidence."

Precisely. The Tower or The Magician. Death's meanings aren't relevant at all.

I was thinking in terms of his metamorphosis from Shirou into EMIYA, and the cyclical nature of the Holy Grail War.

I really don't understand how the Tower relates to him.

Because a Counter Guardian's purpose is to kill and destroy, no matter how many it is and regardless of the devastation, so that humanity survives. Ironic demise? The whole reason he's so bitter is that always wanting to save people has made him an indescriminate murderer beyond comparison. Plus there's the whole 'try and kill myself in the past to break this mess' goal.

The Magician equally seems to apply to post-Fate and post-UBW Shirou, especially when you look at all its meanings.

I'll reiterate that the Tower symbolises chaos, catastrophe, failure, and the end of a journey.

I will admit the Magician really seems to fit him best, but that same Arcana is really the only one that fits Sorin in the least.

In the end, though, I may decide to forgoe this endeavor. Still in the planning stages. That said, does anyone have any music groups or songs that they would associate with their character? Popular ones, preferably from the 80s-90s?

You've changed the meanings you're using for the Tower. Chaos, catastrophe, failure--still describing Archer's life, here. And death.

I swear if you're planning a Jojos thing I really need to make this work this time. XD

...Although still going to wait until the dragon fight is over until I introduce Meiling. No matter how much fun it would be to intro her by having her rainbow kick it in the face.

All of them apply. There's a rather wide range of themes that apply.

I kinda feel like this is a suitable theme for Ba'al, given the megalomaniacal cliche evil involved with all goa'uld to some extent.

Well, or this. There are a lot of options. :p

How do you like the sound of 「Prince of the Universe」?

「Touch of Evil」 will be delegated to Sorin.

I have a couple of other ideas... 「Iron Maiden」 for Saber... 「Primal Scream」 for Evahld. It's more about thematics in the title than song relevance, though the latter is a plus.
