The Dozen Servant Grail War
Let the Games Begin



It's the year 2152, and humanity has evolved well beyond what we know as the Modern Era. Cities reach the limits of the sky, technology is rather impressive to say the least, and nearly the entire planet's landmass is covered in cities that reach out as far as the eye can see in every direction. It's a good life...

But people have forgotten the magical ways. Those few who hold onto their magic are likely zealots of the old ways, even as magic has evolved over the centuries. It has been a long time since there was a Grail War, but now here we are. The call has gone out, the Masters have been chosen, and the Servants await the call.

The war is a team based war. Six teams of two pairs will fight for the Grail. This is why it has been named the "Dozen Servant Grail War" as there are twelve Master, and Twelve Servants. (This may potentially be changed into four groups of 3 pairs if there's enough interest to bring in another Servant and Master pair. I just don't want the group to get too large because I feel that's when RPs often fail is when you have to rely on too many people to be around and active to keep the RP going.)

So the Servants are ready to be summoned, and the Masters ready to put their lives on the line to be granted their wish.

-OOC-

This is a Grail War set in the future. The technology level is similar to that of Star Wars, with flying speeders and such. Earth is basically Coruscant at this point, so imagine the whole surface being covered in one massive city.

Magic has evolved from what we have seen in the anime, so you can have it be whatever you want. There is no requirement to use crystals or anything like that. Just know that the basics of magic still apply, your characters only have so much prana reserves, and no matter how much magic has evolved, no Master can ever compare to a Servant in raw power.

I'll put more information here as it's necessary.

-Character Application-

Master

Name:
Age:
Notoriety: (What is it that has made your character be chosen for this Grail War, beyond living in the place that it is taking place?)
Magic Description: (A brief summary of the kind of magic they use, how powerful it is, and just in general what makes them unique)
Character Description:
Image Reference: (Not required, you can replace this with a character description if you want. You can also add a description along with it if you want to note anything.)
Extra Notes: (Anything else you want to say about them that you think should be readily available information to others.)
Wish: (Why do they want to win the Grail)

Servant

Class:
True Name:
Image Reference:
Combat Potential: (Any special abilities, attacks, weapons and all that. Basically give a description of their power.)
Noble Phantasm:
Extra Notes:
Wish: (Why do they want to win the Grail)

Please follow this character sheet exactly. Do not add sections or remove them without asking first, and please check to see if there is room available in the RP before sending in a sheet.

So I have a few choices. Tell me which you think you'd like best.




I also have Nicholas Flamel as a caster that I'm still planning, and Zhao Yun as a lancer.

Well I'm playing Caster and I think there's some unspoken Rule in the Fate universe that you aren't supposed to have more than one of the same class on a team xD But hmm. Sinbad looks pretty cool.

Oh I should note, I know there's a big difference between following the anime and the games as far as stats go. In this case in particular, we will be going for a more realistic approach where Servants are to beat their opponents a reasonable, skillful way, not based on who has what stats.

I have actually had run ins in the past with people who insisted on doing RP based on the stats and it just felt pointless to even try because it was all just "I have X rank in this stat therefor I win".

And I don't want this to become that.

I usually use the ranks as kind of a "I'm strong but not very fast." So somebody who is inherently speedy is going to be able to move faster than them when they have to run away. Skill is still a major part in it. So my parameters are more of a shorthand.

That's fine.

Also waiting on word for why exactly my friend got banned pretty much immediately after posting their character sheet. I swear to god if it's because "The picture they linked shows skin" ...

Alright, so I'll clean up Sinbad's character sheet a bit more, and work on his Noble Phantasms and skills. Funny you chose Morgan Le Fey, because at one point I thought of doing Galahad. With the concept that in reality he was betrayed and poisoned by his friends for being so perfect, and they told others that he had ascended into heaven to hide their betrayal.

Okay after some explaining to me... by multiple people... it's fixed lol, Daphelora just got caught up by the anti-bot... uh, bot. All fixed now.

As for Morgan, I let Daphelora choose since she's playing the Master. I let her choose between Morgan, Mordred, and Jeanne and she chose Morgan. Galahad would be pretty interesting since Morgan is very likely to summon Berserker Lancelot Alter multiple times throughout the RP lol.

He seems to have reeeeeeeeeeeeeally powerful Noble Phantasms. But then again, I'm not exactly making this RP out to be a "Try to survive, keep everything balanced" deal as long as we make a good story. My only issue here is the "Completely nullifies reality marbles" deal because reality Marbles can make for some good stories and scenes, but if he can just "Nope" them to oblivion, it kinda limits that.

Beyond that I suppose it's fine to post. I could be a prick and be like "Hey follow the character sheet" but I suppose I shouldn't restrict creativity.

Also I guess the guy who showed interested in playing a Master isn't coming along so for the moment we have a slot for a Master open.

Hey I'm here. Sorry I didn't keep up with the interest check. My bad! Well, as I said there I could play as Assassin or a Master, much like Reflection did, I'll prepare two sheets for them. The master one should be up first because he's ready from the go.

Yes it is to some degree at the very least. That all looks fine, you'll probably need to play Master because right now we have 2 Servants and 1 Master, and unless we have a massive influx of desire for people to join, which I doubt, I intended for it to be a 4 person RP at least to start.

@Reflection Still around and in this?
