Fate/Stay Night Casual RP

@KoL
Yep, Lancelot is just cool as hell.

[Turboshitter]

I'll take Lancer.

[DoktorSchnabel]

Alright, well since everyone's jumping into picking and choosing roles, I need five people to take the role as Servant.

@poog the pig

Assassin Here!

@DoktorSchnabel

Well that's a bummer. Looks like I'm shafted into the Caster spot if reservations are taken into account.

[KoL]

Since I'll be playing as the Servant, I'd like to call for Saber for now, 'cause Lancer has already been taken. Though I may change to Rider or Archer depending on how my idea swings.

[Medjedovic]

Berserker then.

Do you have a sheet for us to use?

@Sublimation

There will be a sheet when the OOC is up.

@poog the pig

A question on that, thought. While I do have Ideas for original servants that I could use? I'd like to ask if we could play as canon servants too, just on another incarnation as it's usual. Since their memories are wiped clean (even though they preserve the knowledge of it !? go figure what Nasu was thinking when he wrote that) of any previous time that they were summoned, I think it's fair game.

[KoL]

I'll call Saber, for the hell of it, I have an idea that I really want to use.

@KoL

I'm going to have people PM me their hero ideas, soon, however I don't feel entirely comfortable with people using canon characters, unless you can play them really well. Original characters are fine, however, as long as they make sense, however KoL, unless I can convince somebody else to play a master, you might not be able to play a servant, since we're two over the limit, but we can fill in spots with NPCs.

[Sublimation]

Servants are just photo copies of the heroic spirit data in the throne of heroes. They dont retain any knowledge since they are separate things from the actual spirit. The only known exception is Arturia because of her pact with the world making it so that she hasnt technically died.

@poog the pig

It was just a casual question. And it's not like I was going to pick Arthuria or anything like that, Gil on the other hand... It's just because of the many servants that were used in supplementary material, like F/E and F/A, people can easily overlook some of them if they aren't big Nasuverse know-it-alls and so it might grate with established canon.

On that matters there's no need for a CS Template for the servants, just use the canon one, it saves a lot of thought. Also, how powerful can our servants be, 'cause creatures like Spartacus (that ugly Berzerker) make no sense at all, if you're wondering the source of my complaints about that guy, it's because he has a canon EX rank endurance, which pretty much makes him unkillable, the only reason why he died on F/A is because all servants from that LN are as imbalanced as hell.

@Sublimation

Actually not, there's a point on the VN where archer mentions that servants, thought perhaps it was supposed to hint to his Counter Guardian nature, know what happened to them during a summoning just like they've read it from a history book. They're memories per se, but general knowledge of vents. Then again, like I said, perhaps this is just with Counter Guardians, 'cause that is the whole reason why he got so cynic after his death, Gaia kept fucking with him until he just gave up trying to be a hero.

[Sublimation]

Spartacus isnt strong because of his EX endurance tho, its his crying warmonger NP that lets him live through anything and convert damage into buffs that turn him into a walking mountain of arms and legs.

[lif]

So, if we really do want to go with seven servants, we need two people to have NPC masters, get somebody in here, or just give up on being a Servant.
====edit====
Irish Tree just dropped his Servant stats.

@KoL

I was talking about them retaining memories from previous summonings.

@poog the pig

I'll be doing mine shortly, just allow me some time to thinker with my Saber.

@KoL

As in he stopped being a servant, we don't even have the OOC up, I'm just trying to get a good idea as to who is what.
===Update===
However, I think it's fine if you really want to rush ahead and rough out your character stats, I guess.

[Turboshitter]

I'm Lancer, and am also willing to provide a Master!
