Exactly the same as anything else for the absolute weakest. After that, ice is pretty physical.

Huh. You mentioned it working on specific elements, but what about Curses, like Mira uses?

@Raineh Daze So essentially (if i am understanding correctly) the absolute weakest ice spells could be absorbed into her diamonds, while the spells stronger than that she would attempt to do something like create spikes from the ground or making something like a vortex of air to block or defend from or counter them?

The more obvious ones like Gandr, I guess? Absorption only works on the weak things, more obvious stuff is very much 'dodge, block, or generally deal with more heavily'. Depends how the curses are applied. Curses aren't in the realm of normal thaumaturgy, so they're probably the most difficult thing to work against.

Johanna will build a great wall. And make the other Masters pay for it.

So... Rider, Archer, and Berserker unpaired, huh?

Pretty much.

Cu's Berserker sounds like it would be pretty fun from what's been hinted, plus the canon connection that could be interesting from that perspective as well, and which according to them is easier to control at that. Could be good firepower for the maintenance cost a Berserker tends to have on average.

Not idea on what @WanderingSpirit's archer is like, but if they have a good rank in Independent Action your master could have a long-distance and relatively independent fighter to capitalize on.

And based on general Rider trends, they usually have high mobility and overall good Noble Phantasms despite not being among the Knight classes.

Hey, I know how the classes and systems work, I'm just wondering if any of those three work well with her. Of course none of those players seem to be around. xD

Ok, Ok.

But just for fun, since it is your choice, i'd recommend taking Gil-serker, or at least checking with Cu to see how compatible they could be. ;)

@Raineh Daze Seeing as if she isn't inherently evil, Gilserker might work out as a good servant. He also isn't goody-goody to a point of annoyance, although he is quite a rebellious spirit.

Honestly, she's looking like the most moral Master of the lot. The hell is this war, where merely opposing evil when it shows up earns you that much? xD

Though Berserker seems fun if they're not being Lancelot-level emo and have utility outside of "forced into crazy" (Illya, you screwed that up). Plus she's not going to be left useless by it. I'll take it.

@Raineh Daze The reason why he's a Heroic Spirit is actually because his lore is Nasu'd up, as he'd otherwise wouldn't be considered a summonable spirit otherwise if we follow his legend. He definitely isn't emo, and his Mad Enhancement only takes effect at certain moments, so he's mostly sane. I'll PM you his sheet if you are surely interested, btw

Yeah, I'm interested, just citing that a Berserker that is either always mad enhanced because they don't WANT to think or useless otherwise is pretty... boring. xD

Eeeeee I'm so hyped to finally get this started soon!

I assume we'll be beginning in the usual way? I.E. start at the moment everybody summons their servants/only just a little before they summon their servants and then roll from there?

If so, maybe established Master/Servant pairs should get together and start working on co-op intros for the summons so they're ready when we go IC? It might be a good way to get a feel for our characters right off the bat, with plenty of time to go back and edit if there's something we don't like or aren't satisfied with.

Whaddya think, @Seirei No Hai?


Co-op as in... Google Docs? First time hearing the term in a roleplay forum X3

If it is, I'm not entirely sure.

Yeah, something like that. It's basically the equivalent of each person doing a really quick back and forth of anywhere between one-liners to one-paragraph posts, but put all together so it doesn't flood the thread. It's good for dialogue-heavy scenes between two characters on their own, since it helps get through them quickly without a lot of tiny posts and spam.

They also tend to flow poorly and go on far longer than is necessary. Use with caution. <_<

If you are looking for long-range support or even just decent tactical support, I think Archer could provide that would work nicely with your kind of Master going off the sheet. Assuming that Johanna can deal with parts of his personality but I think some mutual parts would mesh.

That is if you hadn't already chosen Berserker, whoever that Servant may be. Should there be interest then just PM me and I'll give you some of the more details or answers to your questions.

Seems like I've already got Berserker. At least, it would be quite rude to go back on that after already seeing the sheet. That, plus she'd rather not have a Servant for support purposes--eliminating the other Masters is pretty much the bottom of her priorities.

So i think that just leaves Estelle, and the last not-yet-made master, as the ones without a servant. Though i don't recall who is making the last master, if we had anyone lined up for that. XD
