If you never read about Drifters, relax, theres no need for it to understand this RP.

If you love the Fate franchise, rejoice, you're gonna love this.

Setting
To cut a long story short, we have all been summoned into the world of Vearth. A world not unlike our own except with several quirks. Humans are not the only sentient species there. There exists Elves, Dwarves, Gnomes and even their less civilized counterparts such as Orcs, Goblins or other dark species. There are two catches to this setting though, humans with their vast numbers have conquered the world and we are not your typical summoned people. We are Servants those of history, myth and legend. You may be Oda Nobunaga, the most famous warlord of feudal Japan or you could be Arthur Pendragion, King of Camelot. The choice is yours.

Plot
The summoned individuals fall into two categories; the Offscourings and the Drifters. Offscourings are generally wretched individuals or those who were betrayed in life. Examples would be Morgan le Fay or Jeanne D'Arc. Drifters are not bound by such specifications. The one common aspect between the two is that they were famed and powerful people of the past. The offscourings will be led by Him to eradicate humanity whereas the Drifters will be left to decide for themselves who to fight for.

Hmm, this certainly has potential but a few questions should be considered first of all. If this is like the Fate version of summoning then how would command seals work? After all, command seals do give control over a Servant and binds them to their Master. If a Master told their Servant to have no mercy against the others then, should a battle happen, the Servant of said Master will not stop to consider letting his/her opponent survive. Also, what about classes? Do they exist? How will magic work in this world? Finally, would there be an equivalent of Noble Phantasms in this world?

@Rae Zer Ah, there seems to be a misunderstanding.

Its similar to Fate in the aspect a heroic being is summoned from the past. However, there are no 'Masters' or 'Command Seals'. In short, said Offscouring and Drifters are of complete free will. In the case of Offscourings, they will be led by a certain individual as a plot device but are mainly allowed to act on their own accord. There are no classes, no additional stats and whatnot. Your character will be as his base self. Magic will work as per the original rules of its context; for example if your character is a Voodoo user, then he/she can use it as it originally worked from wherever he/she was summoned from. I do however like the idea of having an equivalent of a Noble Phantasm.
