WELCOME TO THE SIXTH HOLY GRAIL WAR




The year is 2014 AD, ten years after the fifth holy grail war, and ten years after the Eighth Holy Sacrament declared the Holy Grail vanquished by 'Saber', and now light of a new holy grail reaches the Mage's Association. Rather than announcing its existence to the magi, the Lords keep it hidden away in one of their many facilities located in the forests of Germany. However, hiding an ancient artifact from the Church isn't as easy a task as the Lords thought it would be, and now an Executioner has gathered up five masters to partake in the sixth holy grail war. Even before this masked Executioner appeared, the selected magi felt a warm draw towards something they could not see, almost as if a moth to the flame of glory and promise. Now that this compulsion has only grown more and more the closer they have become, not only the selected magi can’t turn away from this opportunity, but their Servants can’t either; now they’re possessed by their own vainglory, and their own lust for their deepest desire.


THE SETTING


In the mountains for Europe rests the Saint Marvin’s Mana-Lab of Creation, nestled into a valley indented by small towns and villages primarily populated by Magi and some homunculi. The valley is a popular vacation spot for wealthy or otherwise influential families from all walks of life, and it’s not uncommon for a traveler to be passing by. In this particular fate/stay RP there will be visitable locations, similar to a VN, and certain NPCs will be available for socialization and particular services. The broadest location your PC can visit is the surrounding forest, dotted with pines and abandoned farms, which can potentially make the forests of Odal a perilous battle ground, no more perilous than the densely populated villages surrounding the Mana-Lab, which rests in the center of Odal. The largest village is located at the winding entrance to the valley: Idalia, which is host to a theatre and a rather pathetic strip mall, strafed by ancient houses and distantly flanked by decrepit windmills. The next village down the road, Linder, is a tiny one, it is host to a string of inns and a pair of smithies, and is surrounded by quiet little ranches, the ground around Linder is open, however, perfect for a battle. And finally, the last village, the smallest village is the closest to the enigmatic mana-lab, it’s an unsuspecting farming village, scarcely populated and even less densely built around miles of wheat. It has no name, if anything it’s considered an extension off of Linder, connected by a scattered path of signposts and idyllic cottages, watching over muddled ponds and reflective lakes.


THE SERVANT CLASSES


The Archer



The Archer class is a ranged fighter, a servant whose lot in life was archery, and in death wreaks havoc with a bow and pike.


Saber



The Saber class is considered the most powerful Servant, an expert swordsman from the Age of Gods, the Saber is often female.


Berserker



The Berserker is a powerful fool who has given up his sanity for great power in death, and has little to no recollection of their past life - powers included. Despite these apparent set-backs, however, the Berserker is easily considered the most powerful Servant.


The Assassin



The Assassin is an expert at stealth and trickery, and in the shadows, the Assassin is king - but out in the open - that’s a different story.


The Caster



The Caster was a powerful magus in life, and in death the Caster returns as a Servant with a seemingly endless mana pool, however, the Caster class requires much more strategy due to the host of weaknesses they suffer from.


The Lancer



The Lancer, the less fortunate of all the classes, is the most agile, and by far the most accurate, striking his foes with measured strikes from his extensive polearm.

Is it alright to reserve an Archer?

Also, isn't it wiser to hide true names?

Archer is already reserved, along with all the other Master/Servant spots, and Servant character sheets are privately messaged to me, so that other Masters are left in the dark about their abilities, and their true name.

Not really, as long as you don't go so far as to make every skill your Servant has rank 'A'

Affiliation would be in relation to families correct, such as the Edelfelt from the series.

Never mind, that's bloodline.

Leylines are sources of mana, correct? I was never well versed on the matter.

Yeah it's like a pathway in the environment where prana flows. They arent super useful though. However fallen leylines are small spots where many leylines intersect and are huge amount of energy. The spot where a fallen leyline is also is where the holy grail cup is formed.

In Fuyuki city, there were fallen leylines at the assmebly building, Tohsaka house, Ryuudou temple, and Matou house.

Yeah, more likely than not a fallen Leyline is located at the center of Odal valley, under the mana-lab. Thanks for that.

@poog the pig Just a question. Since all spots are filled, when will the RP begin? I hope it didn't takes to much time.

A second one. When will we be allowed to post at least some of our servant info on the CS tab? I wanted to at least post a picture of Saber in her civilian clothes.

Also, my props on the setting is very intriguing while not being far too much ostensibly detailed. I really liked it, though, shouldn't the next Grail War happen only in 60 years? Or are the flukes from the previous two still carrying on?

@poog the pigI'd like to announce that Saber's team will be the Tohsaka representatives for this War. It works perfectly with Wong's bio and Saber's NP.

I'll be sending Saber's final CS to you in a couple hours at most. I'm hoping that we can start still today.

@KoL
The sixty years thing is so that the greater grail system absorbs enough prana to restart the grail war ritual. Since this is a new grail in a different location then perhaps magical energy was supplanted aome other way. Or maybe the lesser grail was destroyed without being emptied.

Just for clarification (and curiosities sake) with all the roles taken, I assume this rp is closed?
