[OOC] Fate/Grand Jackpot - Gamble For Humanity [DISCONTINUED]

[Rezod92]

Gentlemen......

Our story begins...

[Rezod92]

Errr....sorry for the double post, but do we already have our Servants summoned?

[Enkryption]

Coolio. At this point we should write the characters heading toward and arriving in the assembly hall, yes? I'll work on it this week!

@Yankee

You can, if you want to. However, I would suggest a little interpersonal interaction and kinda establish what kind of student you are. Since, it's better to have some established characterization and have your characters going, "Oh, hey! It's X from my Imaginary Numbers class!" and "That's Y from my High-speed Incantation lessons!" versus, "Hi, I'm Z." and, "Who are you?"

Errr....sorry for the double post, but do we already have our Servants summoned?

@Rezod92

Yes.

In this CHALDEA, you summon as soon as you pass the Aptitude Test and a Psychology Exam. So, you've had your Servants since Day 1. Not full control over then - technically, they are your partner, but you have no authorization to use your Command Seal on them, until you are put in the Master Program.

Which, you are now.

So, all Masters and Servants are well-known to each other, but how you personalize their characters and relationships is entirely up to you.

[Yankee]

Another question since it wasn't super clear in the OOC, apologies. So the masters are studying at Chaldea prior to this? I had assumed they were going to Chaldea specifically for the situation so my bad on that. Is it basically now like a facility that takes in students and trains them for the purpose of Rayshifting and other such things? And to follow up Rezod's question, how long has it been since "Day 1"? Just want to figure things out before I write and get everything wrong haha.

[Enkryption]

So, I did answer that question ahead of time, but I don't think anyone really caught onto it, or I just wasn't clear. I don't know, but the answer is the same one I gave you in the IC:

"The Masters in mind are pretty much like Ritsuka - freshman with unusual talent - however, you can be upperclassmen; so, juniors, sophomores, and seniors are the optimal choices for aesthetic.

Please, however, avoid being any kind of adult that wouldn't fit in CHALDEAS, if you don't wanna be a teen."

Admittedly, towards the end, I was so stunned, as they filled with prospects faster than I expected, so I prioritized accepting sheets on a basis that this question would return, and I could fill in the blanks with my original answer.

Day 1 is minimum of a month, to be specific there. None of you are actually starting your first day at school - which, do not get too hung up on that. It's a backdrop for downtime and presents more to do than traditional FGO. You won't be attending classes with a requirement to pass tests and whatnot, but you can attend classes as part of your scenes.

This particular universe is one that is ahead of FGO-Prime, but fell pray to hubris, and wound up in a similar situation of failure - minus the bombs.

@Yankee

[Yankee]

Gotcha. Honestly I thought you were using the freshman, etc. terms as mere descriptors and didn't realize you meant literally, but it's all good as Chabi was still written with "young/teen magus" in mind. Thank you for explaining!

[Enkryption]

@Yankee

No problem. I, honestly, like the idea of the facility as a school/training facility. That's the vibe it gives off, in-game, so figured I'd run with that.

Again, I, admittedly, could have been clearer and more proactive with making sure people understood that, but I was dumbfounded that anyone, much less a full cast, was interested, lol

[SSW]

Heat is killing me but I'll try to have something up soon.

@Enkryption Are Servant identities public knowledge? Pasiphae would likely have kept hers secret if possible, but if not that's fine

[Enkryption]

@SSW

Partner Servants, and Servants in general, are referred to by their Class Names, and not their True Names, unless they give them out or their Master does so.

Da Vinci-chan is the only Public Servant in CHALDEAS.

[SSW]

@Yankee@Rezod92

Would Medusa and Amalthea/their masters have given out their true names? It'd be a fun interaction for Katerina (goat and snake) but that doesn't have to happen immediately.

[Rezod92]

@SSW @Yankee

Wait, I just had a potential idea for some interesting interaction/dynamic.

Reginald, Chabi and Katerina's Servants are Greek in origin, right? And Amalthea and Pasiphaë, in particular, being 'moms', right?

So what if, sensing Medusa's introverted nature.....the two began dotting on her?

Just a thought. XP

[Yankee]

@Rezod92@SSW Technically Medusa is a mom too, hehe. Mom squad real (plus nanny). As far as if their true names would be known, assuming it's been about a month, I think Amalthea's identity would definitely be known. So yeah, feel free to assume she has doted on any and everyone.

[Enkryption]

Seems like I might have to rename this to "Fate/Grand Mommies - Milkies for Humanity".

[SSW]

More than being greek, Amalthea and Pasiphae are even from the same island. And a goat and cow... Maybe I should have gone for something a little more different, but they should be pretty different in personality in any case.

[Yankee]

Personally I like the similarities, and like you mentioned they have different personalities and approaches to things I'm sure.

As for posting, should be in the next day or two for me.

[The Irish Tree]

Took me a bit, but finally managed a post.

[Enkryption]

@SSW, @Anza

How's post progress?

[SSW]

Should be able to get something up in the next couple of days.

[Rezod92]

@Anza

Hey. It's...actually been a bit since you posted here in general. Is everything good on your end?

@Rezod92

It’s been a rough week.

Fortunately all is well now so I’ll try and find an opportunity to write something soon. If you need to skip me for a round then I won’t mind.
