[OOC] Fate/numerus clausus (A Great Holy Grail War RP in Scotland!)

[vancexentan]

I just like making Nasu-esque lost-in-translation magic descriptions. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Oh look a post about being interested in joining. Don't mind if I do. ᕕ-ᐛ-ᕗ

@Asuras

It was in reference to Asuras. If you really want you can work it out with them.

[Cu Chulainn]

Just gonna leave the FC I found for Lancer here so I don't lose it. It's 5 AM, I haven't slept, and my sheet is still a WIP for now. Will be presentable tomorrow.

Also, he's totally not Irish.

Lancer

[Temporary]

@Cu Chulainn A Lancer that's not Irish is nothing but a Heretic.

[vancexentan]

In all honestly I'm surprised I haven't seen a Chinese lancer, or a greek lancer thought. I wanted to make Zhang Fei as an NPC at one point. 'The Stand at Changban' would make an amazing noble phantasm. On top of Zhang Fei already having awesome endurance, and base stats. His fall would be his speed, and luck. He got his head cut off by his own troops for being a drunk asshole in history.

But besides that guys like the five tiger generals, or Alexander the Great would make great lancers.

@vancexentan

Zhao Yun was one of my first Lancer choices, but I already have another Chinese Servant in another Fate roleplay I'm in. And we have Too Many Greeks™

@1Charak2 Congratulations! You've just won the "Rin and Shirou Award for Excellence in the Holy Grail War!"

Actually, the post snaps in two.

Just kidding!

Was it really a trap?

Yes. Yes it was

@Vocab

I fucking knew you were up to no good

Hence why I had my secret plan

Still, you almost almost had this tech priest fooled. If IGNORE wasn't in all caps.

@1Charak2

I fucking knew you were carrying that Diffuse Kit.

So I prepared something special.

@Cu Chulainn

Just because Rome ripped off Greece's religion doesn't mean you get to compare the two so dismissively like that xD

Was told to post the character in OOC

Servant: Berserker

"Golden Boy"

Name - Sakata Kintoki
Class - Berserker
Gender - Male
Alignment - Lawful/Good
Height/Weight - 190cm/88kg

Parameters

STR - A+
END - B
AGI - B
MGI - C
LCK - C

Class Skills

Madness Enhancement - E
A Luck Check is performed whenever damage is received, failure results in him going wild and parameters except MGI and LCK are raised. On that occasion, his whole body becomes red.

Divinity - D
Divine Spirit aptitude that comes from origins as a thunder deity's son. Because his mother was a man-eating mountain witch, the rank is low. It will rarely activate as resistance in regards to the attack of Heroic Spirits that possess thunder deity-lineage roots and legends.

Personal Skills

Monstrous Strength - A+
Grants a rank up to his STR parameter. Originally it is a Skill possessed by monsters and beasts, but Kintoki is the son of Raijin as a red dragon and his mother is a cannibal mountain witch, making him possess this Skill at a very high rank.

Natural Body - A
Naturally, he has a complete (golden) body as a living being. Grants a plus modifier to his STR. Furthermore, even without training he's still beyond brawny. No matter how many calories he ingests, his body shape will not change.

Animal Dialogue - C
Since it's not like the intellect of the animals improve, very complex nuances are not conveyed. Even then, maybe because Kintoki's mental structure is close to animals, they strangely get into a mutual understanding.

Noble Phantasm

Golden Eater

GOLDEN
Rank - B
Type - Anti-Unit
Range - 1
Maximum Number of Targets - 1
Description - A huge Masakari axe that carries the power of the thunder deity and cannot be handled without Kintoki's superhuman strength. This Noble Phantasm probably did not have this shape originally. It is loaded with 15 cartridges with thunder put into them and its destructive power is raised with their detonation, although sometimes the cartridges gets jammed. There is probably a different true name, but Kintoki activates it with this name, even though this name is absolutely not the true name. Unreasonably golden.

Golden Spark

Golden Shock
Rank - C
Type - Anti-Unit (1 Cartridge) / Anti-Army (3 Cartridges)
Range - 1~4 (1 Cartridge) / 5~20 (3 Cartridges)
Maximum Number of Targets - 1 (1 Cartridge) / 50 (3 Cartridges)
Description - A Noble Phantasm that carries the power of the Raijin, loaded with 15 cartridges. Can be utilized as an Anti-Army Noble Phantasm by using 3 of the charges, releasing a flash of lightning that mows down surrounding enemies. The fact that it activates with a suspicious True Name is just like Golden Eater. The True Name is probably not this, but is activated with it regardless. Unreasonably Golden.

@MeteorD

Golden... Boy...

[MeteorD]

If only the actual songs about him were that extravagant
Also concerning Masters, are they assigned by the GM or? As in, paired up by the GM.

[vancexentan]

@MeteorDIt's player choice.

With thanks to @Shadow Daedalus, here is my Master CS.

Olympia Whitehall - Master

"Huh? Hiya! I'm Oly! Are you here for that... Holy Grail Thingy too? I didn't really read the note."

Name:

Olympia Whitehall

Gender:

Female

Age:

16

Height/Weight:

158.5cm/53kg

Alignment:

Chaotic Good

Master Of:

TBA

Personality:

Olympia differs vastly from her brother. Unlike him, she was not groomed to be well mannered, as her parents saw very little in her. She has a short attention span, and seems to care little for studying, even though she expresses that she understands how important it is. Due to constantly living in her brother's shadow, being neglected by her family, and emotionally abused by her Professor, she lacks the confidence Marcus possesses, but unlike him, she has a strong sense of what she believes in. She's a kind person at heart, and enjoys living life by ear, however she can be known for having episodes of considering herself worthless, a belief Arieh kindly strengthened for her. She hates people who use others suffering for entertainment, or to make them feel better about themselves, but she doesn't actively pursue ways to deal with them.

Background:

Olympia is the daughter of the Whitehall Family, one of the two members of its fifth generation of Magus, and the Fraternal Twin of Marcus Whitehall. They were born as twins through the use of magic, however Olympia got the short straw of the birth. The magic used was imperfect, and it resulted in Marcus's fetus absorbing the majority of Olympia's Magic Circuits, and so Olympia was born with very little Magical Power, and Marcus with far above average Circuit Numbers, and Magical Ability.

Because of the magic that was used, though, and the way her Circuits were stripped from her body, Olympia was born with a set of powerful Mystical Eyes, which helped make up for her lack of circuits, and over time helped her regenerate some of the ones that had been damaged, however they did not manifest for several years. At first, after discovering her ineptitude, her family had her put up for adoption, but no Magus family wanted a defective Mage. She had no aptitude, she had attention problems, and her brother was far more suited to carrying on the Magical Crest, and so her family treated her as though she were close to nothing. But, despite that, her brother always remained kind.

It wasn't until she was 12 that her Eyes became active. While she had little to no aptitude for Magecraft she was still made to attend a school which taught it. Because of her ineptitude in the skill, she was often bullied and abused by her "Superiors", and her brother was unable to get involved. Tired of being treated like a lower class, her eyes lit up with green and blue, and she set fire to everything around her.

The abuse stopped, and instead she was feared. At least, until she joined Clocktower, and Arieh Ayondale became her teacher. He must have felt some kind of jealousy or something similar because of her Eyes, and so, every class, the man would ask her to perform some kind of spell that they had learnt. He knew she had little aptitude for Magecraft, and that she found it incredibly difficult to learn spells, so he used that to make a mockery of her every single class. Alongside that, every test she took she was marked down on. When she did poorly, she was scorned, and even if she got the right answers chances were they would be considered wrong. It got to the point where the Clock Tower suggested moving her to a different class to help develop what abilities she did have, but Arieh insisted she stay with him; after all, everyone said he was a great teacher and Mage. Who else could help her if not him? She's still in his class to this day.

At first, she wasn't interested in revenge, but since the idea was posed, it is a very tempting offer.

Origin:

Inverse

Element:

Void (Ether), Fire

School of Magecraft:

Runic Magic

List of Skills/Spells:

• Eyes of the Verdant Flame: Olympia possessed a set of Mystic Eyes of Flame, brought on by the damage the the magic Circuits in her eyes. When activated, her usual blue-ish purple eyes swim with green highlights. The external effect is completely invisible, as it has no form, however if one is able to see things without form - with Pure Eyes, for example - they would note her power being a set of interwoven tendrils of green that snake their way towards the target. Once the tendrils come in contact with something big enough to stop them, that object immediately combusts into a bright display of green flames. Small things, such as candles, take very few Units to ignite, however larger things like Human bodies take much more, often times 8 Units and above. Even though her eyes are considered Unranked by the Noble Colours System, they are considerably powerful, and Oly's most powerful asset in combat.
• Runic Magic: The Whitehall family specialises in Runic Magic, and, more specifically, a system that combines Old and Modern Runes into single spells. Once a Whitehall Mage begins training, they are tested to find their Elemental affinity, and are thenceforth taught Runes which mirror that. Olympia was a special case, in that her Element was that of Void, meaning she could easily use all kinds of Runes. Each Rune takes a single Unit to activate, and an additional Unit for every 5 minutes they are kept active. This means that Runes creating Bounded Fields can very easily incur great Mana costs.
  • Oly has sets of almost invisible Runes tattooed onto both her palms, as per her families request, which allow her to cause certain Mysteries. On her right hand, she has three sets; a set of one, which creates a light about the same as a normal torch; a set of six, which gives her the equivalent of a telekinetic push; and a set of two, on her index and middle finger, that when activated imbed a sigil into whatever object they are in contact with, which alert the caster if magic is used nearby. On her left hand, she has two sets; a set of four, which when activated can create the casters choice of minor optical illusion; and a set of eight - her most powerful premade set - which creates a shield around her palm which can reflect most any physical attack, if with some reduced strength.
• Fireball - Just your standard, run of the mill fireball. It costs 6 Units to create, and can be strengthened by her Mystic Eyes. It travels in a straight line, and explodes upon contact with something that can stop it with enough force to blow a hole in a wall. However, it is somewhat slow, or at least slow enough that a person at a fair distance who can see it coming can just about get out of the way.

Mystic Codes:

• Regarding the King - At first glance, and even with detailed inspection, the book Oly carries around appears to be a science fiction novel, which tells the story of a rebel group attempting to defeat a super advanced artificial intelligence which made the world perfect, but at the same time destroyed freedom and civil liberty. In actuality, the real book is disguised by a powerful illusion spell cast by its maker. Under the illusion, it is a somewhat negligible, yet somewhat old fashioned, book, which contains an artificial replication of the Whitehall Magic Crest, produced with the help of her brother and a Clock Tower Professor who had been researching such Mystic Codes. By passing her Mana through it, she can place Runes inside of the pages, effectively making it a portable spell tome. Runes engraved in this way cost 2 Units a Rune, however they do not incur extra costs to keep active. This means that, in theory, the book could be used as a Bounded Field without costing anything to keep running, however the book would have to remain where she wanted to Bounded Field to be, meaning she would either have to part with the book or stay static with it.

Circuit Quality: B
Circuit Quantity: D-
Number of circuits: 12, no Stubs
Od (units): 24
Maximum circuit capacity: 60

Other:

Her Magic Circuits are a testament to her own power, and the power of her family. Even after having most of her's stripped from her, and the rest damaged, she was able to regenerate those that were harmed. Those circuits she has remaining are of a high standard, and so despite her lack of them, she is a formable opponent in the right circumstances.
