[OOC] Fate/Eclipse

[PaulHaynek]

Hey Twilight, we seem to have an abundance of Masters. Whatever shall we do?

Will there be nasty kicking out? 'Cause that'll be... nasty.

[Tatsua Aiisen]

Well, I assume that priority would be given to paired Masters first, so if there's to be a kicking it would take place after everybody's paired up.

[TwilightDragon]

Exactly what Tatsua says. Lets pair up the Masters first and then we'll do the kicking.

Anyway, I finally decided what I'm going to do with my characters. : D Rider is going to be Genghis Khan, I know his Noble Phantasm and everything. My Master is going to someone else. I think I'm going to start working on Rider first, due to the fact that he might be more needed since Masters are looking for Servants to pair up with.

And to those who are still working on their forms; tell me when you're done, okay?

[PaulHaynek]

@TwilightDragon

*gulp* I've got a bad feeling about this.

P.S. Seeing the abilities of the other Masters makes me nervous about mah boi's skills. Hope no one minds a few buffs here and there.

[Flamelord]

And Archer is finished. Let the gun spamming commence.

[TwilightDragon]

Or maybe the Masters can just be demoted to simple mages. ^^

I'll look at Archer in a second, but for now, here is Rider! I'd like for anyone to tell me if they see something wrong. I'm the GM, but I want to be fair too.

@Flamelord Archer looks good. Just put him in the character tab.

Appearance

"I am the flail of God. If you had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you."

Class: Rider

True Name: Temujin, or more commonly known as Genghis Khan

Age: Appears to be in his late twenties to early thirties

Gender: Male

Master: -

Cause of Death: Unknown

Abilities:

Bowman- Genghis Khan does not use a sword or any other type of blade in combat; he uses a bow, instead. He is able to remain sitting on his horse without using his hands and can shoot targets easily on horseback.

Spy: the Mongols were known for their espionage, Genghis Khan included. He is a rather useful spy that can gather information and relay back rather quickly. This does not, however, come close to comparing with the skill of Assassin.

Noble Phantasm:

Jebe- Genghis Khan summons a mount named after one of his most prominent generals. The Mongolian Horse, with trimmed mane and stocky stature, provides him with mobility and speed. Jebe grants him the ability to ride the wind, allowing both beast and rider to get to enemies located above him.

Pinning Shots- with enough mana, Genghis Khan can make an arrow that he shoots spit into multiple ones. They can be blocked and only receive some power increase, but unlike Scourge of the East and West, can be used several times in one battle. Pinning Shots are able to break through magic barriers if used enough.

Scourge of the East and West- summons some of his mounted Mongol army. His Noble Phantasm is more of an anti-city type, but can be used on units as well. The small army is able to rampage and pillage towns quickly and easily, along with focusing an attack on a small home, Master, or other Servant. However, this takes a toll on Genghis Khan and he is only able to keep the army going just as long as he has energy to supply them with.

Appearance:
Broad shouldered and sturdy, Temujin stands at 5'8". His hair is long and wavy and falls down to the base of his neck. Some of his hair is tied into braids, whether loosened or tied. His face is usually set in a frown and at first, he looks like an intimidating person that has no room for friendship. There is some facial hair on his lip, jaw, and chin; he does not bear a full-on beard, but he does not have stubble, either. His arms and legs are rather strong due to the fact that he practices archery while using only his legs to maneuver his mount around. Genghis's armor is composed of steel plating, cloth, and fur.

Personality:
To put it simply, Genghis Khan is known for being particularly aggressive. He had wished to conquer during his days, after all. However, he is not rash and foolish when it comes to battle-- he does not charge headlong into a squabble without studying his opponents, first. A lover of tactics, Temujin adores planning ahead, as he believes that it would grant him more chance of winning a battle. Though he is violent and aggressive, he is another person when it comes to his allies. Genghis Khan is extremely loyal to his friends, standing beside them through thick and thin. Loyalty is important to him; it ties several people together and makes them more of a force to put up with.

He prefers to be called Genghis Khan if one wishes to call him by his actual name as he believes the name suits him better than Temujin. He has no qualms being called Rider, though.

Genghis Khan can get rather impatient if he stays put for too long, and will often go out of his way to explore or take in his environment.

Short Biography:
Born in north-central Mongolia in 1162, he was named Temujin by his father after one of the chieftains his army had captured. Temujin was born with a blood clot in his hand; in Mongolian folklore, this automatically stated that he would one day become a great leader. At the age of nine, his father took him to live with his future wife. On the way home, his father was met with some of the members of the rival Tatar tribe, who invited him to a conciliatory meal. It was at this feast that Temjuin's father was poisoned and killed. Upon learning about his death, he returned home to take control of his tribe. However, his family did not accept him as the chief of the tribe at first. They pressured him immensely. Due to the stress imposed on him, he killed his half-brother, Bekhter, after quarreling with him during a hunting expedition. Temujin was then confirmed as the head of the family.

When Temujin was twenty, he was captured by a former allied tribe in a raid and temporarily enslaved. One of the tribe's members took pity on him and helped him escape. After fleeing from the tribe, Temujin slowly formed an army with his brothers. The army's count climbed to twenty thousand units, and it was then that Temujin began to strive to unite the Mongol tribes under his rule. After several of the tribes fell under his command, the other tribal leaders agreed to peace and dubbed Temujin "Genghis Khan", or "Universal Ruler". Genghis Khan's empire grew to become the largest one in history, branching from the east of the Mongol empire (some of China, etc) to the west (Turkey, Afghanistan, etc). It was then when his army was known for being an extreme force to deal with and was feared by many.

Genghis Khan died in 1227 after the submission of the Xi Xia. No one really knows how he died; some say that he fell off of his horse and died of fatigue and injury. Others state that he died of respiratory disease. He was buried without markings, as per the tradition of his men. According to legend, the funeral escort killed anyone and anything in its way in order to conceal the location of the burial site, and a river was diverted in order for it to flow over his grave.

Other: Wields a short sword that is used for close combat. While the sword isn't anything special, Rider finds it useful for fending off those who get too close for him to use his bow.

Personally I am interested in fighting Berserker and Archer. (Talking about Jacob Millford here.) If we don't ally that is. I think I can pair good with Assassin. I like Caster and Lancer, but I'm not seeing the synergy. I'd have to see what our lovely leader has planed for the great Khan before I decide there. And before I post there it is. I like it, but he falls in with Caster and Lancer. So here are my desires:

Assassin > Caster=Lancer=Rider > Berserker=Archer (Saber is taken)

Its open for discussion and preference. :)

[Nisemono]

Almost done with my master sheet but I don't think I have a servant to pair with.

[TwilightDragon]

I think there are Servants that don't have Masters. So far I know that Saber, Caster, and Lancer is taken.

So Assassin isn't going to be allied with anyone, then?

@TwilightDragon

Gamerdude said he's interested in Assassin while I'm interested in Berserker. Constantine and mcpop has yet to respond.

Lemme do another 'Let's review...' to sort things out.

[TwilightDragon]

I'm making a Master for Lancer, so~

Thank you Paul. :D

Rider has no Master, so he's free.

@TwilightDragon

Hmm could my master pair with Genghis then?
I've finished her but I don't know how to link the profile so I'll just repost if you don't mind.

Hider

Name: Sinia Dagda
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Servant: ?

Powers/Abilities:

Runic Magecraft
Magecraft originating in old Scandinavia. It consists of symbols that automatically realize mysteries that their meanings represent. They are drawn with straight stick like lines and function similarly to magic crests. Sinia has high proficiency with this subset of magecraft.

General Magecraft
The standard fare for anyone who calls themselves a magus. Includes things like locking doors, breaking falls, etc.

Uaithne

Hider

Uaithne was the harp of Dagda, an elder god of Celtic mythology. This harp has been passed down to Sinia's family line through service to Dagda incurring his favor and remains as a carried on tradition. Uaithne is capable of manifesting elemental mysteries simply by plucking its strings, mimicking the original capacity of the artifact to alter the weather and incur natural disasters with its playing. Of course, Sinia is incapable of fully utilizing Uaithne and is many leagues away from mastering it. Uaithne has the capacity to heal mental interference and sway the emotions of others depending on the tune it plays. A nervous and staccato tone would make those hearing the harp nervous and fearful, while a slow and melodious tune would cause somnolence and so on. The harp is capable of casting certain spells such as healing and reinforcement with its notes towards an intended target or object if said target hears these notes as well as mental interference. The notes that Uaithne plays enact mystery by themselves, much like divine words. Uaithne as a guardian artifact also increases the physical resistance of its wielder slightly, but provides a powerful inhibitor against magic many times more potent than an amulet. By calling its name, Uaithne can be recalled to its wielder with frightful speed easily capable of smashing through most things to deal considerable damage, a watered down version of Dagda's recalling that killed nine divine spirits with the harp's trajectory. This recalling is the harp's most powerful ability in terms of offense, and will devastate most targets with ease but cannot be directed and will automatically take the shortest linear route to Sinia regardless of blockades. The harp itself is quite large and clumsy, being almost as large as Sinia herself, and thus renders her an immobile "fighter" if she can be apt to be called one. Instead, the harp characterizes Sinia more as a "support" type fighter, as well as being capable of producing music of exceptional other worldly quality.

Appearance:


Personality:
Sinia is a rather quirky figure with a joyfully capricious and open minded view of the world. She is rather forgetful and often stumbles down the path of life, but remains cheerful and optimistic under pressure and misfortune she often brings unto herself. She is an empathetic and easily moved individual, but regardless has a capable tact and flavor of pragmatism that allows her to have a surprisingly clairvoyant perception of characters and their motives. Sinia is marked with a distinct gentleness about her that engenders a calm that contrasts with her high energy aura. In consequence, Sinia is rather pacifistic and mentally unfit for high tension and violence situations such as battle. However, her perceptiveness and infectious energy allows her to empathize and connect with others and understand them. Sinia possesses an ardent passion for music in all its forms, and often immerses herself in her playing completely in almost vitrification induced manner. Sinia possesses a rational and insightful side to her also, facilitating her ability to keep track of minutiae and discern slight changes in both physical and emotional atmosphere. Sinia has a keen sense of curiosity and an equally acute will and passion to match, granting her a whimsical method of action based on her own capricious curiosities.

Short Biography:
Hailing from a secluded family that had serviced the god Daga and had received his cherished harp, Sinia enriched herself with the isolated culture of her homeland. She learnt the foundations of magecraft and imbibed the knowledge of runic magecraft that her family possessed. In unprecedented fashion, she entered the Association but found it unfitting for her specific and niche talents. Instead, in an even more unprecedented fashion, Sinia decided to immerse herself in her music rather than magecraft, which didn't consist of much more than runic knowledge. She put her knowledge of magecraft on dusty shelves and instead took to fostering her musical knowledge in the modern world, causing her to settle down in Ukata university. However certain circumstances led her to pursue the grail war in Ukata, and with resolute determination Sinia brushed away the settled dust from her magecraft knowledge.

Other:
"Music is a tool more refined, more piercing, and more durable than any sword or gun"

@Nisemono

In the top right of the post there is a chain/link icon. Click that and it will make the url in your address bar the link to the post.

[TwilightDragon]

Sure, if you'd like. And you can link the post using the chain button on top of your post, it'll permalink you to the post itself.

I edited Pinning Shot a little bit, just so it can be a little more useful than a glorified multi-shot.

Reminder, put your characters in the character tab so I may add them to the list!

@TwilightDragon

Oh alright, I get it now.
went ahead and posted the character in the tab

[TwilightDragon]

Okay, I have most of the Servant characters up on the first post. Once Paul provides me with the info on which Servants go with which Masters, I'll edit it again.

Does no one see any issue with Rider? If so, I'm going to go ahead and add him to the character tab.

Just let us know if I got anything wrong, a'ight?

[TwilightDragon]

The thing is, I didn't want him to have a similar Phantasm as Iskandar. Trying to be a little more original. ^^ He's going to have a mount, but he's going to summon it instead, since it doesn't grant him any powers. He's simply going to have more mobility.

Sinia is going to take Rider. ^^ He belongs to Nisemono.

Lancer is also going to be taken by my Master. :)

<Snipped quote by TwilightDragon>

@Nisemono

I agree. He also strikes me as having both strong Leadership and Independent Action skills, being a nomad and what not. His biggest strength would defiantly be his military tactics, this excites me.
