[OOC] Fate/Exit Order (Discontinued)

[Parallel Hearts]

Fate/Exit Order

The Holy Grail War. In another place and another time these words might have meant the word for the Heroic Spirits that reside within the Throne of Heroes, and even some beings who lie beyond its eternal grasp. However, now wasn’t one of those times, not anymore.

This time, what compelled the Heroic Spirits to listen and answer the summons was something much greater. A call to arms, a cry for help, call it what you will but this is the last chance of salvation. For the future to continue to exist, the Heroic Spirits of old, those who became legends, and had their souls recorded by the world, would have to step into action and fight a threat beyond even the most legendary of the Phantasmals.

All that was left to see is whether they would succeed on their efforts or not.

If you’ve clicked on this, I assume that you know enough of Fate for me to not need to go on a long exposition about Servants, Masters, and their exploits through the numerous iterations of the franchise. Nevertheless, I’ll just go through a brief explanation to be sure anyone reading this is close to be on the same page and then, proceed to explain the specific details that concern this story in particular.

The various Fate related works take place in a world — or rather, worlds — not very different from our own, with the exception that spells and magic are a real thing and pretty much every conceivable myth is either real or has sufficient ground in reality to be considered “real”. Normally, a number of mages, known as Masters, summon figures of those legends, Servants, to fight for them in a bloody conflict called the Holy Grail War. The final prize that both Masters and Servants are fighting for is nothing other than the Holy Grail, an all-powerful artifact capable of grant any one of its bearer wishes.

Of course, nothing is ever so easy. Catastrophe and suffering go hand in hand with most Holy Grail Wars ever fought and most of the times, if there’s even a winner, they’ll not be feeling like they won anything at all.

Nevertheless, neither Masters, nor the Holy Grail War will be the focus of this story. Instead of them, the Servants will be working under the command of the Moon Cell, a gigantic magical computer buried deep within the Moon that has existed since before the dawn of World. This incomprehensible machine which has a will of its own, called Servants to fight a threat that could not only decimate it but also deal a finishing blow to the derelict remnants of the Earth below.

While the Moon Cell has been able to fight off big threats at many different times and realities thanks to the interference of a certain unwitting Master who managed to win the last of the Holy Grail Wars on sheer luck, this time it has to fend on its own. There’s no traces of that person, or any other humans left in its data.

This is a story about how those who vowed to protect the world fulfilled their role in a war that’ll remain unsung for now and forever…

[Reflection]

So I mentioned earlier that I have a few options for what I can do for a Saber. But Hagen is one I already have tidied up, so I figured he'd be good for this RP.

Saber of Betrayal

Class: Saber
True Name: Hagen
Origin: Nibelungenlied
Height/Weight: 195cm / 77kg

Appearance

Alignment: Neutral Good

Personality: He is a hero. To many he was the greatest possible hero, and one destined for greatness. But he was a man who was tasked with a mission, and that mission turned him into the villain. The actions he took in life blackened his name, and turned him into the slayer of heroes. As a Saber class servant, he carries the guilt of his actions heavy in his heart. Shamed of what he did, and hopeful to make amends. He is not yet the twisted and heartless killer of heroes, but a man who made a poor choice. It is a wonder what he will be like in later times.
Backstory: Due to Siegfried's nature as someone who did as he asked without question, he was involved in the dilemma between his brother-in-law, King Gunthur, and the woman Gunther desired, Brünnhilde. As the various circumstances came to a head, Siegfried was left with no choice but to die to stop conflict between Brünnhilde and his own wife, Kriemhild. He exclaimed to his friend Hagen, “Ah, the situation is beyond my control. Hagen, I am invincible and so have never once been wounded by you. But even so, if I don’t have you kill me…”

Hagen sought to grant Siegfried's wish, having formulated a plan to slay him after having tenaciously searched for Siegfried's weak point. Though he knew it was a cowardly act, Hagen aimed for Siegfried's back as he drank water from a stream, Siegfried himself not resisting the blow. He died as a "tragic hero who received a sneak attack due to trickery." Hagen became known as "a rare villain who had killed the hero through foul play." The situation after did not go as Siegfried planned, his wife later causing many to die in her revenge plot.

— Parameters —
STR: B| END: A| AGI: B| MAG: A| LCK: E| NP: B

— Class Skills —
- Magic Resistance A+: Cancel spells of A-Rank or below, no matter what High-Thaumaturgy it is. In practice, the Servant is untouchable to modern magi, so it would not be an exaggeration to title the Servant a 'Magus Killer'. Because of his elf bloodline, his strength in this skill sits at this high peak.
- Riding B: Most vehicles and animals can be handled with above average skill, even vehicles that did not exist in the time period one was alive in, for they are no exception. However, cannot ride the likes of Phantasmal Species such as Monstrous Beasts.

— Personal Skills —
- Battle Continuation B: Hagen was one of the last casualties of 'Fall of the Nibelungs.' As such, he was able to refuse the demands of his enemy, and only being beheaded ended his life. His not being fully human can be argued as a part of this unusual strength.
- Half-Elf B: Hagen is a half elf. As a Saber, this part of him is suppressed more than it would be as an Avenger. His power to utilize magic jumps up rapidly, to a degree where his efficiency in magic is beyond anything humans are traditionally capable of. As a Saber, he is more in line with that of a light elf, so the magic he constructs his more pure in nature. More for healing and protecting than for cursing and killing.
- Proof of Friendship A: A Skill to suppress an enemy Servant's fighting spirit to a certain extent, where then a dialogue can begin. However, the enemy Servant must not possess a Mental Pollution Skill. In regard to a Holy Grail War, an advantageous check can be obtained when constructing temporary alliances. This is a skill fit for a man who before his murder of Siegfried, was loved by many, and had many friendships. Something he cast aside when he became a murderer.

— Armaments —
The blade he wields is nothing short of a monstrous weapon, that even heroes look down upon. Dainsleif. The blade that brings the man who wields it to ruin and suffering.
Using Light Conversion, Hagen is able to convert his magical energy into light energy. His main method is to create flashes of light, or to heal those around him. It can be forged into his weapons temporarily, allowing him to strike with bursts of energy.

— Noble Phantasms —

Noble Phantasms

Title: Dainsleif: Demon Sword of the Great Betrayer
Rank: B
NP Type: Anti-Army
Range: 1-50
Maximum Number of Targets: 200
Description: A demonic blade of the Nibelungs. The tribe crafted Balmung, the holy blade designed to kill dragons. But on that day, a slip created another blade. A horrible blade of demons that killed the hero known as Sigurd. Before it traveled many distances, to become the very blade that ended the life of the hero Siegfried. As if the blade itself was destined to ruin the life of heroes.
Eventually though, the cursed blade fell into the hands of Hagen, who wielded it honorably for many years before killing Siegfried. It became his in legend and name, and is tied to his betrayals. The blade draws in all the ruination and curses directed towards its wielder. Becoming what can be called a cauldron of curses and hatred, and uses them to attack.
Any hero struck with this blade will feel the grudges seep into their body. The curses are strong enough to keep any wound from healing, no matter the matters taken. Any damage is also amplified by the surge of curses, dealing extra damage to the victim. As such, a minor cut becomes a blood soaking gash. Tearing victims apart, and ensuring their deaths.
When the true name is called, the grudges and curses become a pinpointed energy. Firing a barrage of curses and grudges that tear apart the ground, and fill the air with death. The potency of this noble phantasm is amplified by the aspect of targeting a servant's weak point. Even if unknown to Hagen, the blade senses weakness in its enemies, and targets those spots. For Servants like Achilles, Seigfried, or those with famous weakspots, this barrage is fatal. When acting in this role of detecting and killing a servant through their weakspot, a luck check is made against the target. The higher a servant's luck, the less likely it will be for the blade's curses to instantly kill them.

Title: Das Rheingold: Cursed Treasure of the Dragon
Rank: -
NP Type: Curse
Range: -
Maximum Number of Targets: -
Description: An unending mountain of treasure that Siegfried gained from defeating Fafnir. Siegfried claims the amount was exaggerated, but says there was a large amount left even by the time his great-grandson was an old man. After killing Siegfried, the treasure fell into the hands of Hagen. This gives him unending wealth, that he can call upon at any given moment to pay his debts. But the curse tied to the treasure remains. If the treasure is allowed to flow freely, the humans who find it will become prisoners of the great wealth, eventually causing much destruction as the country is filled with betrayal and distrust.
Due to being a noble phantasm tied to his actions after the death of Siegfried, Hagen is mostly unaware he possesses it. If a master forces him to use it, his spirit origin begins to change as a result of the curse, and his conflicting existence. As a result, he risks becoming more and more like his form as an Avenger. One that is tied to the the life that came afterwards.

[Moonlit Sonata]

Caster of the Dance Floor

"𝐈 𝐬𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐛𝐚𝐝 𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐧 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐦𝐲 '𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐃𝐚𝐞𝐝𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐬 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐑𝐨𝐛𝐨𝐭, 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐍𝐨: 𝟐𝟖.𝟕𝟐, 𝐔𝐩𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐬: 𝐈𝐭'𝐬 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫, 𝐝𝐚𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭!'"

Class: Caster
True Name: Daedalus
Origin: Greek Mythology
Height/Weight: 190 cm / 140 kg
Alignment: Runaway Good
Personality: Caster is, put simply, an utter lunatic. A brilliant man who could create things that even he could not conceive of prior to the building process, he was an innovative mind ahead of his time by far. At the same time, though, he is obsessive and narcissistic in his craft, going as far as to murder his nephew in cold blood and steal credit for his inventions due to a fear of being one day surpassed. As with any artist of a sufficiently advanced nature, he is an eccentric who will take any chance to prove himself, even taking the riddle challenge of King Minos despite it being an obvious trap, simply to prove that he could.
He is not without morals, and does ultimately act in terms of what he believes to be good, as evidenced in his aid of Ariadne. However, his understanding of what is good is irreconcilably bundled up in the other countless sources of mental baggage that come with his existence. He is loudmouthed, overbearing, and takes every effort to make himself the center of attention even when he is supposed to be incognito and running for his life.

— Parameters —
STR: C | CON: E | AGI: B | MGI: C | LCK: A | NP: A

---

— Class Skills —

Territory Creation: C (EX)

Capability to create a territory advantageous to oneself as a magus.

Caster is not a proper magus, and as such has difficulty even with creation of a Workshop. However, through the passive capacity afforded by the Noble Phantasm “Eternally Changing Innovation”, the rank becomes nonstandard.

At this point, it is possible to create a “Labyrinth” which functions as an alternative texture of the SERAPH in its own right. In other words, creation of a territory beyond the limits accorded by the exterior phantasm. One could call this the next step up from some Casters’ ability to create alien worlds.

Due to Caster’s flighty nature, the ‘mobility’ of his territories are far above the average.

Tool Creation: -

Due to the Personal Skill “Wisdom of the Entrapped”, the Class Skill “Tool Creation”has been sublimated into said skill.

---

— Personal Skills —

Wisdom of the Entrapped: EX

The ability to call in for luck, especially when in danger. The cumulative wisdom of his own natural brilliance and the gifts of the goddess Athena. It is this aptitude which saw him out of countless dangers.

Due to the class container, this also freely allows for exhibition of the Caster Class Skill "Tool Creation" at equivalent rank to this skill. It is no exaggeration to say that this capacity is the nexus of Caster’s being, and is "Caster himself". Caster is not an all-rounder genius such as Leonardo da Vinci, but rather is the hero whose name is most synonymous with “inventor”.

He is credited with such things as creating the first statues with range of limb movement, so lifelike that they would run away were it not for the chains binding them, and a litany of other creations. He does not create potions, but rather structures and mechanisms. In this field, he can be said to stand near the peak. Creation of tools on par with a Servant’s Noble Phantasm is possible...or rather, it might be better to say that "by virtue of being created by Caster, an item is worthy of being called a Noble Phantasm".

This is further amplified by the Noble Phantasm “Eternally Changing Innovation”, though this is not factored into the skill’s displayed information. The details of such are enclosed in the below section.

Curse of Knowledge: -

Not an ability of Caster, so much as a curse inflicted upon him through deification to Heroic Spirit.

Caster’s legend is one in which “those who attempted to use his inventions came to ruin”. The wooden cow which gave rise to a monster, the nefarious Labyrinth that proved beyond any expectations, the wings that killed his own son. When, in any point of Caster’s life, someone besides Caster attempted to use his creations, they were met with demise. This curse is the realization of that rule.

At the time of another individual attempting to utilize Caster’s creations, they must pass a LCK check in order to do so. Should they fail this check, their fate is altered to bring about certain ruin upon themselves. An additional check is required with each subsequent use and each turn that ownership is possessed for. The initial difficulty of this check is high, but it further rises over time if consecutive checks are called.

Caster himself is obviously exempt from this condition, though his allies or those he is contracted to are not. However, in exchange for his inventions being useless to others, Caster himself is implicitly capable of using his creations “to their fullest potential”, regardless of their nature.

Natural Insight: A

The ability to perceive the true nature of things. His sharp eyes for observation will not overlook any sort of information. The wisdom that let him devise the plan of Ariadne's Thread and solve the riddle of King Minos.

Although their principles are completely different, this can read into the future in a way that is similar to the future prediction of Clairvoyance.

In Caster’s case, the theory this abides by is the logic puzzle of Ariadne’s Thread. That is to say, possibility exhaustion. He does not read the future so much as develop contingencies for “all futures”. One might call it an absurdly inefficient, yet somehow absurdly effective cousin of the theories of the Atlas Academy.

Use of this skill consumes mental energy, rather than magical energy.

Disengage: C+

Aptitude to withdraw from the battlefield. A talent of fleeing, gained through his escaping of the grasp of King Minos’s prison tower. Bonus effect of returning battle conditions to what they were at the beginning of the match. Due to the anecdote of escaping with his son, it is possible to aid others’ escapes as well.

Rather than "a warrior retreating from battle", in Caster's case it more resembles "a Saturday morning cartoon villain retreating at the end of an episode".

The plus modifier is the result of synergy with the Personal Skill “Wisdom of the Entrapped”. This activates in the case of Caster being in the condition of “trapped”; in other words, a state of affairs where he is prohibited from leaving.

This does not add additional bonus conditions, but rather drastically raises the chance of escape. For instance, the one-on-one combat of the Knights of the Red Branch could be feasibly escaped from with this.

---

— Armaments —

A lyre. However, his own modifications have been conducted on the lyre, albeit not in the same way that a certain Rider’s bear and drums became a bike and another Rider’s magic boat spaceship became a scooter. It takes the form of an electric guitar, and safely fits into a guitar case, which relatedly happens to shoot ether-propelled explosives.

When asked as to how and why he created such a thing, his sole response is to look at the inquirer as though they just asked why he has a face.

He additionally possesses the wings known for causing the death of his son. These allow for flight, but do not possess any other capability.

Armaments are included in weight assessment, for some odd reason.

Chaos Labyrinthos

Eternally Changing Innovation

Rank: A
Classification: Anti-World / Anti-Unit (Self)
Range: -
Maximum Number of Targets: -

The feat of creating the great Labyrinth.

One might believe that, as its creator, Caster’s Noble Phantasm would be nothing other than that Labyrinth itself. This, however, is wholly incorrect. In the first place, if there was a hero who could do such a thing, it would be that misbegotten child whose world was nothing other than the Labyrinth.

Instead, this is the feat of its creation, of creating a living structure built into the Backside of the World. More specifically, it is the aptitude to create “something that does not belong in this world”. In other words, the passive effect of this Noble Phantasm is the alteration of Caster’s creation skills, giving them the additional property of manufacturing things which function outside the common sense of the exterior phantasm. Naturally, this also weakens the prana, time, and material requirements of all creating by a significant amount, building as though it was still the Age of Gods.

Through release of the true name, the principle is taken to its highest possible point. That is to say, Caster becomes capable of an invention process of something that does not belong in this world, using the fundamental building block of the Fifth Imaginary Element. Undoing a prior edict, free conversion of the Fifth Imaginary Element into the Fifth True Theoretical Element is possible. Naturally, the efficacy of this amplifies tremendously when inside of Caster’s territory. This is generally used as a superior grade of power source for his own creations, allowing them to further break past their standard limits, but it should be possible to utilize it in other means.

...actually, in addition to the Fifth True Theoretical Element, it seems that the substance which it opposes could also be created in this manner, but Caster has dismissed it as a possibility.

[Rune_Alchemist]

@Parallel Hearts

Here we are. Have a lancer Archer

Neith

Class:
Archer

True Name:
Neithhotep

Origin:
Historical Fact

Height/Weight:
171cm/59kgs
5'6/130lbs

Appearance:
A tall woman, with long black hair and distinct, clear blue eyes that would remind one of the Nile. With dark skin, a muscular build, Neithhotep would be physically imposing to most. She dresses in fine golds and white silks, indicating her status as a Pharaoh, sporting a red crown of jewels upon her head as an avatar of Neith.

Alignment:
Lawful Neutral

Personality:
Being the avatar of both a creator goddess, and a goddess of War and Hunting, Neith can somewhat severe in her behaviors. She appears and behaves as she did during the later half of her life, when she was raising both Djer and Hor-Aha into proper pharaohs. Neithhotep is a severe woman. Harsh words abound, especially so when berating those for doing something irredeemably idiotic, yet also has an incredibly motherly side to her when it comes to children and those she sees as family. Harsh on those she loves, yet will stalwartly protect and teach no matter what.

She likes engaging in shows of physical prowess and strength, most notably hunting - even getting a bit carried away at times. If she has one thing that makes her angry, its when people disobey their mother dearest. Of course, she realizes she is not in fact, most peoples mother, but her natural maternal instinct is rather strong. She does however, consider herself a mother to all Egyptian heroic spirits that come after her.

Backstory:
Not much is known about what is one of the earliest records of a female monarch in history. A Regent in the first dynasty of Egypt, who grew to power as a Pharaoh in her own right. First thought to be a male due to the unusual size of her tomb and royal decorations, she was supposedly the wife of Narmer, the first Pharaoh of Unified Egypt, and later Regent for her grandson.

Reality isn't too far from the historical records.

Consort to Narmer, Neithhotep quickly stood out among others due to her beauty, artistry with a loom, and her desire to hunt. Her early life consisted of sneaking out from her duties with the priestesses and religious folk in favor of hunting and the battlefield, which is where she met Narmer, future Pharaoh of a unified Egypt.

Narmer took her as a consort for such reasons - believing her to be an incarnation of Neith. Something that would greatly aid the fledgling first dynasty. Neithhotep was both strong willed, confident, and had a natural talent for almost everything she did, it seemed, whether it be leading men hunting or attending to governmental affairs with Narmer. Whens he gave birth to her first son, Hor-Aha, she did nothing but want to protect him.

Perhaps this over eagerness to rule, lead, and protect, was why things ended as they did.

Neithhotep held no true desire to rule as a Pharaoh, at least to start with. No, she just wanted to protect her child like any mother would. Wanted the best for them, and as such she did everything in her power to assure Hor-Aha was raised in a manner befitting of a Pharaoh. After all, she had seen everything Narmer had done, all she had to do was raise Hor-Aha to be greater...but that would also mean putting him in danger.

It is said Hor-Aha had a long, successful reign. Opened trade, craftsmanship flourished under his rule, and even mad expeditions outside of Egypt during that time. Unknown to most however, these all happened at Neithhoteps suggestion and action. Hor-Aha, was little more than a figurehead for his mother most of his life, and when he died leaving a child behind - her grandson, Djer, she was instated as Regent.

As a natural course of events, of course.

From there Neithhotep went on to become a Pharaoh in her own right, being fairly popular whilst simultaneously raising Djer as well, just as her own son. Yet, he was far less easily controlled by his mothers ill perceived motions to protect and rule. He made it known quite clearly, he would be Pharaoh one day, much to Neithhoteps chagrin. She ruled for a little over two years, efficiently running the country, until the day came when Djer was to take the throne.

She refused, stating he was nothing but a child and he should let his mother handle it.

She was forcibly removed from the throne of Pharaoh, and walked into the desert for a final hunt.

— Parameters —

STR: B+| END: B| AGI: A| MAG: C| LCK: C| NP: A

— Class Skills —

Independent Action A
Being a creator goddess, and an Pharaoh, you honestly think she'd take orders from anyone? A skill denoted by a high ability to act without a master's constant supply of magical energy. However, even so to unleash a magically draining Noble Phantasm, one would need backup from a master or other source. Allows a servant to maintain form without such a source, for a time.

Magic Resistance B
An innate resistance to magic, which makes most spells completely ineffective against her. Even greater magics would have trouble actually affecting her, and most would find their effects diminished greatly.

— Personal Skills —

Divinity B
The Avatar of the Creator and Goddess of the hunt, and mother of Ra, Apep, and Sobek. Neithhotep has been granted a high level of divinity because of it. Most notably, borrowing from her divine nature as the mother of crocodiles and Sobek. This allows her to summon Neith's offspring as Divine Beasts to do her desired tasks. The Crocodiles are hunting dog like familiars that assist her on the hunt. They may be slightly slow on land, but in any aquatic environment they gain various rank ups in stats that could make them a considerable threat to most servants.

Doubly, this allows her access to her true armament as an archer - the Goddess' Neith's loom that she used to Weave the world into existence, and uses to weave a new world each dawn. She rarely uses it however, outside of the need to activate her true Noble Phantasm. The Loom can fire a number of large harpoon like arrows from its strings.

Guidance of the Unseen Sky B
A blessing from Neith. Neithhotep was gifted with a form of Clairvoyance. A god that is the 'Opener of the Ways'. No matter what one is doing, it allows them to see the optimal path forward in order to accomplish whatever it is they set out to do and lead their followers to victory be it in hunting, battle, and leadership. A composite skill of Charisma and Clairvoyance. Less powerful than true Clairvoyance, and its ability shines during battle, allowing her to predict and plan an optimal path to victory regardless of the circumstances.

Battle Continuation C
A skill that allows for a continuation of battle despite sustaining mortal wounds, and reduces the mortality rate of injury. learned in her early years as a huntress in Egypt, and strengthened by her divinity to manifest as a skill.

Motherly Affection C
A skill brought about by Neith's own influence as a creator goddess, and Neithhotep's own motherly tendencies. A rather odd skill that boosts an allies mental resistances and interference, and can remove such interference from allies while bolstering their resolve. Just listen to mother and everything will be okay. 'Affection' can either be loving words or a sharp disciplining. Best not to anger mother dearest, yes?

— Armaments —
Neithhotep's main armament is a highly decorated hunting Harpoon that doubles as a holy scepter, decked in gold and decorative inlays befitting of any Pharaoh. Despite looking like a melee weapon, they are in fact the 'arrows' for her Loom and are as sturdy as any Noble Phantasm. She doesn't really care, and she often uses it in close quarters as a spear, not really caring so much for overly ranged combat. Can lead to people mistaking her class for a Lancer of some sort.

The Nile Crocodiles that serve as her familiars.

— Noble Phantasms —

True Name: Cosmic Loom, "The Loom which weaves the world"
Type: Anti-World
Rank: A
Range: 1~30
Maximum number of targets: 50

Neith's own Loom that she used to weave the world into existence, and that she uses daily to reweave the world and remake its future. The Noble Phantasm itself exists as both something that destroys what once was, and simultaneously heals it for a new dawn. It is, however considerably less powerful in Neithhoteps' hands.

Loading up the Loom, it fires a highly compressed jet of water towards the targets, (oddly enough, in the shape of a cow) ripping through whatever stands in its way in a matter of seconds. Doubly so, it completely drenches the area in Neith's divine waters completely remaking the field into her favor. This water has special properties, most notably, it reinvigorates those that are soaked in its divine power.

[The Red Seelie]

So, a question on the common battlefield.

Are we fighting within or outside of the mooncell? (asking because inside the mooncell there is no pressure from the world which is what allows the insanity of the sakura AI to even exist)

[Moonlit Sonata]

(asking because inside the mooncell there is no pressure from the world which is what allows the insanity of the sakura AI to even exist)

@1Charak2

This isn't quite the case. The corrective influence of the world in the standard sense isn't a thing, but the Moon Cell's rules are still enforced. For instance, Malignant Information isn't something that's generally able to exist on the Near Side, and is sent to the trashbin that is the Far Side as 'useless data'. Servants also still require a line of magical energy to function, and SERAPH is itself a series of layered Reality Marbles which function under World Egg theory the same as anything else.

The Sakura Five also aren't something that existed on the Near Side. A big chunk of BB's plans was based around camping out in the Far Side where the Moon Cell's eyes didn't generally reach and taking advantage of how imaginary number space works to further that. It's not related to the lack of a corrective influence, because BB would've been zapped the second the Moon Cell properly noticed her, which is why she had to avoid detection until she acquired the core.

[DocRock]

Considering joining this, but before I do that, would any of the following be deemed acceptable? Asking just so I don't take up anyone's time. I probably won't be submitting anything until Weds, due to a trio of papers slamming into my radar at the same time.

CCs:
Charles Babbage
James Moriarty(Archer since I don't know what his Caster stats would be)
Thomas Edison(Caster)
Nicolas Tesla

OCs
John Watson(Caster)
Winston Churchill(Rider/Caster)
Theodore Roosevelt(Rider)
FDR(Caster/Rider/Archer, I can explain the other classes aside from Caster if needed)
Alan Turing(Caster)
Albert Einstein(Caster/Rider/Archer, same deal with FDR)

ACs(Altered Canon)
Neil Armstrong(Rider)

Well aware I'm listing mostly modern servants, but they're all people I know well enough that I could attempt something. Armstrong is AC since while I'm aware that an astronaut is present in Extra(And gets wrecked by Drake), I'm not sure if they named him or not. Neil Armstrong does however make the most sense as to that Astronaut's TN due to his historical legacy(fight me on it if you like, but as someone with connections to the first Moon Landing, I know a lot about that event). I would have listed other CCs, but I wasn't sure if there was anyone else I could try my hands at.

[DocRock]

Also forgot someone OC wise

Henry Ford(Caster/Rider)

If adapting CCs from other series were to be permitted, I have other ideas as well, but I'll not say so just yet.

@Reflection

I don't see any particular problems with Hagen. However, I'd say to add a mention of some sort of check (most likely Luck) to Dainsleif's instantkill bit, just so that it's more on the same page of similar NPs.

@Moonlit Sonata & @Rune_Alchemist

Both are alright, you can post them to the CS tab.

So, a question on the common battlefield.

Are we fighting within or outside of the mooncell? (asking because inside the mooncell there is no pressure from the world which is what allows the insanity of the sakura AI to even exist)

@1Charak2

Inside, but not as deep as the core, at least. And certainly not anywhere near the Far Side.

Considering joining this, but before I do that, would any of the following be deemed acceptable? Asking just so I don't take up anyone's time. I probably won't be submitting anything until Weds, due to a trio of papers slamming into my radar at the same time.

CCs:
Charles Babbage
James Moriarty(Archer since I don't know what his Caster stats would be)
Thomas Edison(Caster)
Nicolas Tesla

OCs
John Watson(Caster)
Winston Churchill(Rider/Caster)
Theodore Roosevelt(Rider)
FDR(Caster/Rider/Archer, I can explain the other classes aside from Caster if needed)
Alan Turing(Caster)
Albert Einstein(Caster/Rider/Archer, same deal with FDR)

ACs(Altered Canon)
Neil Armstrong(Rider)

Well aware I'm listing mostly modern servants, but they're all people I know well enough that I could attempt something. Armstrong is AC since while I'm aware that an astronaut is present in Extra(And gets wrecked by Drake), I'm not sure if they named him or not. Neil Armstrong does however make the most sense as to that Astronaut's TN due to his historical legacy(fight me on it if you like, but as someone with connections to the first Moon Landing, I know a lot about that event). I would have listed other CCs, but I wasn't sure if there was anyone else I could try my hands at.

@DocRock

That Astronaut is 90% certain to be Neil Armstrong. The only reason they don't namedrop him that he was alive until very recently and Nasu doesn't like to use people from too much recent History as Servants because it's harder to write about them with enough creative freedoms. If you want to use that as a concept, you can go ahead.

I'll not give any opinions about who you should pick though, since that's supposed to be on your own. I'm just making sure you know that Armstrong is ok as a concept.

[DocRock]

Yeah, thanks for the feedback. Agreed on Armstrong, as he was alive when Extra came out.

If I do any of the OCs, no promises they'll be perfectly fine from the getgo, since I've gotta figure out skills for some.

Churchill is fun, he'll probably get a tank if I made him Rider(Due to his connections to the first usage of a tank in warfare). Alan Turing is fun because he's the "actual" father of computers, given Babbage died before he could complete the first modern computer, whereas Alan actually succeeded. Learning more about him in a spyfare class gave me more respect for the man than the recent film already did.

tl;dr: Thanks for feedback, I'll get back to you when I can with a profile. Might just do Armstrong since I can ask my dad for help, as he's ex-NASA(retired recently).

Sure, I can add a luck check when I get home. Probably gonna aim for C or higher to defend against the weakpoint kill. Or just roll a dice if you prefer.

[Breo]

Level 100 Road Brawler

Class: Rider
True Name: Theseus
Height/Weight: 181 cm / 82 kg
Alignment: Neutral Good
Origin: Greek Mythology

Personality: A hopeless thrill-seeker by nature and a shameless tease by choice, or perhaps the other way around. In this form, his disposition is naturally inclined to that of his youth — someone that faces what the world throws at him head on, a man for whom the road he will take is dictated by his heart alone.

At a glance, getting along with him is easy, provided you aren’t the sort he had to put down so often. More than anything, do not insult the memory of his loved ones — the people he met on that voyage, the sworn friends he made, the two women he loved and the son he let disappointed — doubtlessly the kind of idiot for whom such people are his world.

A simple man that likes to see people smiling, a fool that cannot bear tears without acting. Even to that beast within the labyrinth, his last words were neither hateful or mocking as he kept it company in its last moments, but rather, a single heartfelt statement.

”I wanted to save you, as well.”

He remembers his victories with fondness. He mourns his failings with sorrow. But he accepts all of his life equally, and can only hope that he might be able to do better one day. Therefore — smile, and always hold on to the hope of a brighter tomorrow.

—Even if the core of the hero named Theseus is “one who wins the battles before him, but loses what matters the most along the way,” all that means is that he will have to conquer that mountain with his own two hands.

Thus, his wish is: “to hold my wife and son again.”

Armament: He possesses the sword that was left behind by his father and he retrieved as proof of heritage. While a good blade that has seen use, however, it does not possess any special characteristics as a Rider beyond its age and emotional value.

STR: B+ | CON: B | AGI: A | MGI: B | LCK: D

Class Skills

Magic Resistance: C

Ability to negate or abate the effects of magecraft, differing from the “resistance” of magi. In practice, he is immune to any magecraft of up to two verses — albeit it cannot cope with the likes of High Thaumaturgy or Greater Rituals.

Riding: A+

Ability to handle vehicles and mounts, extending not only to what existed in the Servant’s lifetime, but modern contraptions. Even state-of-the-art transports can be handled expertly.

Boasting the highest classification owing to accounts of his figure subduing the Cretan Bull, he possesses the capacity to ride even those creatures of Phantasmal or Divine Beast classification.


Personal Skills

Divinity: B

Refers to one’s aptitude as a Divine Spirit. At higher Ranks, one can be treated as a mixed breed of sorts.

In addition to also being related to Zeus through his mother, it can be said that among all mortal children of the Sea God, none were closer to his father or received the blessings he did — the quality of the divine od suffusing his form is truly superb, and the Rider iteration emphasizes his figure as “the wandering, divine-blooded hero,” bringing such attributes to the forefront.

Pankration: A+++

The staple martial art of Greece that was jointly developed by Rider and Heracles and then passed on to other heroes.

Understand the nature of the enemy, grasp the conditions of the battle, and then refined skill, natural talent and accrued experience will work together to forge a path that will lead to their absolute submission. Rather than simply “an array of ready techniques”, it can be classified as “Rider’s identity as a combatant”.

A tool for humans, against humans, that nonetheless was used to carry out the absurdity of “conquering that which is beyond humanity”. Such is the true nature behind Rider’s use of the oldest martial art in Greece — found in the blows that trounced the mother of the Calydonian Boar, subjugated the Marathonian Bull and slaughtered the Minotaur — born out of nothing more than pure human will yet bestowing the aptitude to “wrestle to death even what should be impossible to wrestle to death.” In that regard, he certainly stands alongside that great hero he sailed and trained with.

. . .One can only wonder how terrifying the result of him meeting a certain “nee-san” would be.

Eye of the Mind (False): B

Refers to the combination of an inborn talent to sense danger and battle experience gained over one’s life used to refine it, utilizing such things in order to grasp both one’s own condition and the opponent’s so as to “avoid a lethal predicament”. Additionally, it also offers the bonus effect of lowering visual and hearing penalties.

A skill resulting both from his natural talents inherited by blood and refined by his battles all over Grecia and beyond — from the hidden dangers behind amiable faces to the capacity to instantly grasp the winning path even against the one that was called “the strongest wrestler in Attica.” Even in the utter darkness of that labyrinth, he found his way and beat the enemy without receiving a single wound to show for it.

The joint prescience, battle experience and accumulated techniques of a hero that never lost a fight in his lifetime.

Ship of Theseus: —

A skill bestowed not due to anecdotes of the legend, but due to the association with a thought experiment that has taken to bearing his own name. It should be considered a “burden of existence” gained through deification as a Heroic Spirit.

Fundamentally speaking, it denotes the fact that “no matter how drastically the shell changes, one’s self continues uninterrupted.” That is to say, regardless of what occurs, it can be said that Theseus will always be Theseus, so it could be compared to a sort of "guarantee" of conceptual integrity.

It also encompasses the ability to “run repairs upon oneself” as it were, though of course such thing naturally depends on availability of materials. However, if such condition is met, it is entirely possible to adapt those same materials for one's own use.

Noble Phantasm

_{Sea God’s Heavenly Hammer}
Aldebaran Crusher

Rank: A+
Type: Anti-Fortress
Maximum Number of Targets: 500
Range: 1 - 99

The great bull that Poseidon ordered to wreak havoc upon the land after Minos’ greed caused the king to not to sacrifice it as he had been ordered — a great Divine Beast that Herakles himself subdued in his labors and was later tamed by Rider and brought to Athens for sacrifice as he followed in his cousin’s footsteps.

Fundamentally speaking, one can say that Rider’s ability to call upon the bull stems from that episode just as much as it does from the parallel nature of their roles regarding Crete’s ultimate fate — the divine and mortal sons of Poseidon who broke Minos’ kingdom due to his own greed and arrogance.

With regards to its capabilities, its main characteristic is purely “destruction” by means of trampling the lands underneath its hooves and forcibly crushing it, a gift born from its connection to the “Earthshaker” and necessarily gifted due to its role as a punishment for Crete. Releasing the rather suspicious True Name causes the beast to materialize high on the heavens, along the Taurus constellation — and by gathering the “light” of its brightest star, Aldebaran, it charges down the enemy camp at impossible speeds. The merciless retribution — the “calamity” — unleashed by the Sea God.

In addition to the simple power of the Noble Phantasm, it also places a great deal of “pressure” on the enemy camp, befitting its role as a beast whose purpose can be defined as “bringing nations to their knees.”

In terms of performance, it certainly seems similar to the pet that was once possessed by that goddess of Mesopotamia — fitting, as that bull in particular was also this one’s conceptual predecessor.

However, this one unfortunately lacks the ability to “crush the enemy without crushing the location” due to its proclivities, so Rider jests about it being a Noble Phantasm “uniquely suited to causing property damage.”

_{Divine Gifts from the Bountiful Sea}
Ἀρας

Rank: D
Type: Anti-Unit
Maximum Number of Targets: 1
Range: —

The crystallization of the episode where Saber met his father after Minos had thrown his ring to the sea and challenged him to retrieve it so as to prove his heritage. Eventually making his way to Poseidon’s kingdom, he was welcomed with open arms and the ring was given to him — alongside a gift to his favored child, promising him to “see any three wishes Rider made granted”.

The reason for the presented specs is because the Noble Phantasm is not “the wishes themselves”, but rather “Poseidon’s promise to his son” — therefore, the actual function is simply “allowing for completely unimpeded communication between Rider and his father.” The field of use is so narrow that it might be considered peerless within it, but its applications regarding direct combat are nonexistent for obvious reasons.

At the very least, the cost is practically negligible in turn.

The proof of his father’s love for him, but at the same time, the means through which his son Hippolytus reached his grisly end.

Indeed, Theseus’ prayers are Theseus’ curses.

_{Unwavering Proof of a Tear-Filled Love}
Ethos Ariadne

Rank: D+
Type: Anti-Unit
Maximum Number of Targets: 2
Range: —

The legendary magic thread that Ariadne gifted Rider in the tale’s most famous episode. Fundamentally speaking, its purpose was to give him directions toward the Minotaur and then allow him to leave once the deed was done, thereby providing a workaround to that accursed labyrinth none had ever escaped.

Its basic characteristic is that of “connection” by means of having the string latch on to something, following which it cannot be broken and will extend endlessly so long as magical energy is provided, which allowed Ariadne to key it to the Minotaur and herself once the beast was dead, after which Rider only needed to follow it. Perhaps in order to accurately describe it, one could say it is “connection given the shape of string,” allowing comparisons to concepts like that red thread found in Eastern cultures. Additionally, it boasts the capacity of shaping itself according to the owner’s command.

Naturally, since he exhibits the traits of his youth most strongly within this container, it has manifested as his third Noble Phantasm, but instead of simple thread, it has found itself altered due to his own proclivities.

That is to say, he used the string so as to make what human understanding as of the twenty-first century refers to as a “wrestling suit.”

As an aside, because of its nature as a Noble Phantasm coupled with the truth behind its creation, the connections formed need not be between purely physical bodies.

You're welcome.

@Parallel Hearts
Sure, I can add a luck check when I get home. Probably gonna aim for C or higher to defend against the weakpoint kill. Or just roll a dice if you prefer.

@Reflection

Thanks. That's really just to make it more like other similar that can be avoided sometimes by those who have a great power to defy fate. In the same way as say... Gae Bolg works. As soon as you've done so, you can add him to the characters tab.

@Breo
Well, most of Theseus is ok, but there a few points that need to be addressed.

- Reducing Magic Resistance from B to C, since I don't think there's anyway to justify he having a stronger rank in this than Achilles. In fact, most of the points I'm working on are in comparison to Achilles' stats, since he's also a top-notch Greek Rider who can be used a fair benchmark to Theseus.

- I don't think that Pankration needs to be considered a skill, since all of the oldest Greek heroes are good at a level or other of it. The two best examples being Achilles and Chiron don't have it specifically noted on their sheets. However, since skills such as Li-Shuen's Chinese Martial Arts and many other similar ones exist, I think you can keep if you want to specify. This is just a consideration, you can chose whatever you do with it.

- However, when it comes to Self-Modification, I'd say that you either have that skill sealed, or make Theseus into something weird enough to warrant it. Even with a concept such as the one you brought up behind it, this skill is really something that makes anyone who owns it "weird".

The rest of him seems ok.

[Parallel Hearts]

PS: This host of Servants is giving me some good ideas of what Servants and challenges to use as opponents as well as what kind of scenario to built out of it while taking advantage of the SE.RA.PH.'s ability to create some pretty interesting environments.

If everything goes alright, this will end up being a pretty big clash of legends. I hope you all are looking forward to it.

[Breo]

@Parallel Hearts

-On MR, not a problem. The reason I put it as B is mainly that he’s from an older generation and also the fact that high-quality divine od is a thing that can give you higher MR if you have it as per Strange Fake — as well as the fact that he kinda scared Medea when they met again at Aegeus’ court, so I figured B was fair and he wasn’t the only Rider to have had it at that Rank, but sure, I’ll drop it to C.

—Pankration is because I wanted to make it super explicit that he was good at it and give it his own personal spin. Sure, you see Greeks with it not explicitly listed but at the same time, that’s part of why Theseus’ is supposed to be absurd — Achilles and Chiron wrestle people, but Theseus used it to wrestle monsters and Divine Beasts, and he’s really one of the only Greek heroes to have done so other than Herc legitimately.

Admittedly, Herc doesn’t have it explicit on his sheet either, but that’s partly because Bravery covers hand to hand and he has Nine Lives as the sublimation of his combat style, but it didn’t feel correct to give Theseus anti-mental interference stuff and his Pankration is, while a big part of what he does, not the sum of his legend, so the second venue is also a no. So yeah, I’ll keep it as is, if you don’t mind.

—Self Modification. . .well, I’m a bit unsure as to what you mean? The idea is that he’s literally the living proof of the Ship of Theseus problem and what it posits, which is why he doesn’t have anything overtly “weird” going on — if the experiment posits “is a ship that has had all of its parts replaced still the same ship?” and in his case the answer is “yes” then he can’t really have weird stuff with his personality because he is still the same at the core even if weird things happen to his body. It’s also partly the reason for him to have Elimination rank, since “no matter what, Theseus is Theseus.”

If anything, it should be more easily justified in the Moon Cell because it is an “information world” so its basis should be stronger. Making him have weird stuff going on goes entirely against the premise of why he has it and the specific circumstances behind his EX in it, so I’m a tad confused.

[Parallel Hearts]

@Breo

Apologies for the late reply. I only look over here once or twice a day at most.

Anyway, what I meant with Self Modification is that it doesn't sound right as a skill when you consider it. Self Modification is something done willingly to change your own self (like CA Hassan's Arm, or how NR does change identities, appearance, and even her mindset, depending on her Master and which fairytale is more aligned with them). Hardly it has to do with changing parts for repairs, like the thought experiment posits.

The ability to remain himself, despite any gradual changes that happen doesn't sound, or works, like Self Modification at all.

It's not a bad concept, but you probably should make it into a new skill.

@Parallel Hearts

Here you go~! Something simple. A one-on-one cage-fighter

'Shinji' doesn't need his lance anymore.

---

Class: Lancer
True Name: Medusa
Origin: Greek Mythology.
Height/Weight: 172cm and 57kg
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Personality:
Medusa's personality is simple at the surface and complex beneath it. At The surface lancer apears to be a cold and cunning fighter on the battlefield, taking pleasure in the enemies hopelessness. She does not crave the enemies fear, but it is not wrong to say that she enjoys them being fearful of her. Yet she is also not one to take in the sadism of battle during the moment, and certainly not in a life-threatening scenario. She'll only 'play' with weaker individuals or those that are perceived as weak.

In confidence and outside the battlefield she takes a more 'big sister' esq personality, with great compatibility to other wayward heroes or people whom do not seem like they belong. She is also quite a fan of the sass when in a relaxed mood, and its not uncommon for her to give backtalk. Perhaps its lasting remnants of her goddess-hood.

— Parameters —
STR: B | END: C | AGI: A | MAG: B | LCK: E | NP: B+

— Class Skills —

Magic Resistance: B

Cancel spells of B-Rank or below, no matter what High-Thaumaturgy it is.

— Personal Skills —

Divinity: E-

Medusa was once a beautiful goddess, so she originally has very high Divinity. However, because she later became a monster, she is an unusual being possessing the 'monstrous' attribute that is antithetical to normal Heroic Spirits. Thanks to this, Medusa manifests as both a goddess and a monster. Nonetheless, her aptitude as a goddess Divine Spirit is mostly degraded. However, her Divinity has not been completely eliminated, and it appears that she still has it.

Mystic Eyes: A+

Medusa has possession of Mystic Eyes of the highest level, 'Cybele'. Unconditionally petrifies those with Rank C Mana or lower and even those with B Rank Mana can be petrified if they are negligent. Those with Rank A or higher won’t be petrified, but will sustain 'pressure' from the Eyes and receive one Rank-Down to all parameters.

Monstrous Strength: B

A rank-up to one's Strength parameter for a time limit determined by the ranking of this Skill. This Skill is borne from the holder's nature as a monster. For Medusa, the longer she is under the influence of this Skill, the more she turns into the legendary monster Gorgon

Independent Action: C

The ability to remain independent even when rejecting the Magical Energy supply from one's Master; the ability that allows for action even in the absence of the Master. Since Medusa can also obtain mana by drinking blood, she can prey on humans as the situation demands and extend this duration.

— Armaments —
She is capable of transmogrifying her hair into chains, of varying lengths. Perfect for ensnaring targets and forcing a confrontation.

Harpe

Immortal Slaying Scythe

Type: Anti-Unit

Rank: B+

Range 2-4

Maximum Number Of Targets: 1

---

A divine sword from Greek Mythology used by Perseus to kill the Gorgon Medusa and one of the many weapons inside Gilgamesh's Gate of Babylon. It is described as a monster-killing holy sword with a special shape similar to a scythe, having the cutting edge on the inside of the blade, though it isn't actually an outstanding sword by itself. Its true strength is its trait of 'Refraction of Longevity', which is a divine ability that nullifies the "undying attribute" of immortals and inflicts wounds that cannot be restored by any methods other than healing in accordance to the natural laws

Breaker Gorgon

Breaker Gorgon

Self Seal, Dark Temple

Type: Anti-Unit

Rank: C-

Range 0

Maximum Number Of Targets: 1

The blindfold of Medusa's, a type of powerful Bounded Field Noble Phantasm on the scale of another World. It was a complement to the Temple of Blood that "enveloped the World" on the Shapeless Isle, having "sealed the World" instead. It only requires a steady supply of energy from the user to affect a target, unlike Mystic Eyes that requires a direct line of sight.

It has the ability to "seal all magical properties", and if used on others, it will imprison the consciousness of the enemy within her own mind; it can even obstruct the invocations of abilities such as magic, Skills, or Noble Phantasms, before removing any abilities they possessed in the outside World once inside.

Those trapped within are said to see a nightmare mixed with both delight and taboo. When it was reversed on Medusa in the past, both the abilities of her eyes and her superhuman strength are removed. It is manifested with a magic circle, and it dyes the affected target's eyes crimson.

Due to its properties, it makes an effective mystic eye killer, for sealing her excessively powerful mystic eyes of petrification. It completely seals her sight, and it is generally manifested as a physical blindfold (although in this case it is more akin to the hood to she wears signifying it being active upon herself). Sealing her eyes also means completely sealing her eyesight, so she instead perceives the world through senses such as hearing, touch, smell, and magic-detection that allow her to acquire more precise information than sight

[Parallel Hearts]

@1Charak2

I think that Medusa is pretty much alright, except for the alignment. She clearly should be Chaotic Evil. This incarnation of her is much closer to Gorgon than her Rider self, as shown in the First Order special, she can't be Good by any stretch of imagination.
