[OOC] Fate/ Transcendent Paradigm (A Fate/GO Based RP)

[Lonewolf685]

@VitaVitaAR

Well then, I best give Faust a good Master. Any preferences?

[VitaVitaAR]

Well, she goes best with someone who can play off of her weirdness. So more of a straightman type?

[Lonewolf685]

Gotcha. So someone who's either blind, a high functioning sociopath, desensitized to demonic invocation, shonen protagonist that rolls with punches, or someone so enamored with faust's cuteness to worry about the demons....wait, that last one sounds like Ryuunosuke.

[FujiwaraPhoenix]

@Lonewolf685: I vote 4 or 5.

[Flamelord]

I'm gonna be pairing with El Cid, as a heads up

[VitaVitaAR]

@Lonewolf685: In fairness, her demons are the type that's formless until emobdied, and she gives them bodies, and, well... they're not always the scariest things around.

[Lonewolf685]

@VitaVitaAR

Option 5 it is then :3

[ADamnFiddle]

Considering applying another character, but am unsure if I wish to apply a magus or a Servant. I presume any servant class that has 3 is full, right?

[KoL]

@KoL: Er... Hoo boy. Well, here we go again.
You subverted problem number 1 but didn't solve it. Just remove that while bounded field mess if it ain't happening in this RP. It's like legacy code in a program: you look at it and remember a past iteration, which is nice for record keeping, but ultimately it serves no other purpose.
Problem number two: Everyone's characters are getting to the starting location by using their own resources. How's an uneducated child who lives on the streets supposed to get halfway across the world to an island in the Pacific?
...
How do you even get in contact or find her to do so in the first place?
Tip: Sometimes elegant, simple histories are the best.

@PKMNB0Y

Got it. I guess I'll have to get back to doing it all over again, or doing a completely different character. Whatever works best.

As to answer why I cram the info on magic parameters on my CSs, I guess that the simple answer is because I like quantifiable stuff, it's not really meant to have any practical purpose in first place. That's just personal preference, it's not to create a, ahem... "dick measuring contest" on the RP. Or annoy anyone.

I agree on the simplistic story stuff, really. I'm too used to doing complicated stuff that I kind of forget what passes as real simple. Either way, I'll get either a reworked version of Fried or another character done by tomorrow at most.

[Cojemo]

@KoL So how does Felix and Diarmuid sound?

Also, here is Scathach! While I do have Victoria in mind for her, that is mainly because I see her as the best fit for Scathach. If anyone makes or thinks their character is a better fit then let me know!

Scathach

Name:Scathach
Class: Lancer
Appearance:

Scathach

Abilities:

• Strength: B
• Endurance: A
• Agility: A
• Mana: C
• Luck: D
• Noble Phantasm: B

Magic Resistance (A): Her divine nature combined with her combat of spirits in the past has given her an extremely high resistance to magic.

Primordial Rune (-): Lancer holds knowledge of ancient Runes that come from an olden age, thus allowing her to use classical Rune magic.

God Slayer (B): As the demonic realms gatekeeper, Lancer gains a plus modifier when fighting Divine Spirits, wraiths, and Servants with the divinity skill.

Clairvoyance (A): Having seen the death of her own pupil, Lancer can track fast moving targets from a distance and also possess clairvoyance, able to peer into the future.

Noble Phantasms:

Gae Bolg Alternative
Type: Anti-Unit/Anti-Army
Rank: B+
Description:
Similar to the spear she bestowed upon her pupil Cu Chulain, Scathach possesses two Gae Bolg Alternatives, both functioning similarly to the one used by her student. As long as her Noble Phantasms exist, those wounded by the spears are cursed, unable to heal their injuries under any circumstance. On top of this, she can call upon its true power, Soaring Spear that Strikes with Death. Leaping into the air, Scathach can hurl Gae Bolg Alternative with a destructive and explosive force that explodes on impact, blowing away all that stands in its way.

Personality:
Scatach has been said to be a very proud and noble woman, while at the same time serving no one but herself. Her birth into the ruling class is evident in how she holds herself. She holds the ideal "reigning as a queen that bestows happiness to the people", bestowing kindness and good will towards those who she deems worthy and even teaching those with great potential. In fact, one can say that she possesses a talent for seeing the true character and traits of a person that even they may not notice. She values courage and great determination, and wishes to always find a good challenge and a worthy foe. Her lust for battle is unquenchable Understanding her talent and ability, Scathach knows full well that few can stand toe to toe with her, though she longs for the day she is proven wrong.Out of all things, what Scathach laments most is her inability to experience death. If she could make a wish on the grail, it would be to allow someone to be able to kill her, especially if it's a certain pupil of hers...

@ADamnFiddle: With the amount of RPers we have? Yes, let's keep it around that much.

@KoL: It's not like I'm asking for something boring and one-dimensional, but sometimes less is more, if you get what I mean. Lets character dynamics emerge and character development occur a tad easier by inserting bits and pieces of history as the cast progresses.

BY THE WAY GUYS. Once everyone's paired up (give or take), we'll be kicking this off. :D

Edit:
Scathach is accepted, by the way.
Just be careful not to scratch anyone friendly with those things.

@Cojemo

Shishou a qt

@PKMNB0Y

I presumed so. Just wanted to clarify, ya know? Didn't wanna potentially come up with an idea for a servant that was not within the confines of what I could currently apply at this time, ya know? I am the sort that questions themselves many times before I come up with a construct, so I wanna know the boundaries as to what I can do. Still on the fence for producing anything at this time, but a few ideas might fester into something passable and those passable ideas might construct themselves into a working sheet.

Hyppu for the second.

And for the third, anyone stabbed probably deserved it :^)

[FujiwaraPhoenix]

@ADamnFiddle: tl;dr: Just checking.

So... Note: I'm going to be splitting the RP crew into two groups here. Doing this based on the Servants, but each scenario is built towards a certain dynamic.

I'll reveal the sets once the RP starts and we're about to get moving.

[GreenGoat]

@Cojemo Yes, I would love to have the Scathy for Victoria.

[Cojemo]

@GreenGoat Great, that settles that then! They're a near perfect pairing!

That just leaves Diarmuid to be officially paired with Felix and I'm all set!

[Lonewolf685]

I don't know why I spent the last two hours trying to think of a reason why a child Taiga Fujimura would show up as Faust's Master. After sitting there staring at a wall for some time I came to three conclusions.

1) Zelretch is trolling everyone with child Taiga.

2) It's actually the child of Taiga and Shirou.

3) This is a really bad idea.

Whelp, now to make a sweet old lady for Faust to get sweets from.

[KoL]

That just leaves Diarmuid to be officially paired with Felix and I'm all set!

@Cojemo

Diarmuid's spears are his.

[Flamelord]

So @PKMNB0Y what happens to Servants that end up not having Masters? (Like poor Nevsky)

[FujiwaraPhoenix]

@Flamelord: Anyone who isn't paired up by the time we start will be assigned another part of the pair. If every slot is thus filled, then those Servants will be paired up with another Master anyways.

[ShadowKingman]

@PKMNB0Y

A Cheerful Dragon Slaying Prince

Prince(ss) Nezha

Name: Prince(ss) Nezha
Class: Rider
Abilities:

Strength: B
Endurance: C
Agility: A
Mana: D
Luck: D
Noble Phantasm: B
Magic Resistance: B

Riding (B): Most vehicles can be handled with above average skill. However, cannot ride the likes of Phantasm Races such as Monstrous Beasts. Due to Nezha's... less than cordial experiences with them it is understandable.

Nature of a Rebellious Spirit (C+): the temperament to never remain at one location and never embrace a lord. A wandering star that does not have the capacity to be king nor is capable of finding his own king. Negates the effects of Charisma with the same rank.

Princess of Loveliness (C): a Skill representing one's charismatic nature in regards not to leadership, but the ability to charm the people around oneself.

Noble Phantasms:

Wind-Flame-Wheel (風火輪) - (B Rank Anti-Unit): One of the two treasures given to her by her immortal teacher Taiyi Zhenren, the Wind Flame Wheels are two flaming wheels by her feet that she rides. Passively appearing and making her steps rather impressive by leaving a trail of flames behind her if she wished; the Wind-Flame-Wheel enable her to "skate" through the sky and perform a fiery charge at her opponent of immense power and speed as a special attack.

Red Armillary Sash (浑天绫) - (C rank Anti-Unit): Used in her battle against Ao Bing, the third son of the Dragon King of the Water, the Flame-Spitting Scarf struck Ao Bing and revealed his true form of a dragon. Aside from the intense heat which it can fire out with each "slash" of the scarf the fires launched by this scarf has the capability of dispelling concealment and illusion.

Fire-Tipped-Spear (火尖槍) - (B rank Anti-Phantasmal Beast): One of the two treasures given to her by her immortal teacher Taiyi Zhenren. While some legends state that Nezha used this to wage battle against her father for desecrating the temple used to house her spirit other versions of the legend professes that she used the spear to subdue and end the atrocities of Ao Guang, the Water Dragon King. Although some of its properties and capabilities are locked due to her summon as a rider instead of lancer, the Fire Tipped Spear is nevertheless extremely dangerous to creatures of mythical origin, especially to those of draconic affinity and ability.

Personality: Nezha is a spirited and carefree youth who is extremely friendly and amicable with young children. Often excitable and animated, Nezha despises the concept of "sacrifices" due to the fact she both battled the dragons of the sea to protect the children of her father's land from being sacrificed and the fact that she sacrificed herself in order to (temporarily) appease Ao Guang's rage over the death of his son. She has a strong sense of justice, right or wrong and will disobey any order in order to save an innocent, no matter how much trouble it may land her in. As a result, it is safe to say she is not a far planner, often neglecting - or outright ignoring - the long term consequences of her actions in favor of the immediate justice.
