Fate/Italian job - Roman Holy Grail War

Alright. i'll work on Rider some more tonight.

Roman Holy Grail War RP (Fate RP with heist themes)

I. Think it would be more fun if someone else were to to play the master. That said i can also make my own if not an option. When it comes to Rider, a female companion would be optimal and preferred for her, but a male one is also viable. Ricardo in particular does not match the criteria personality wise however. Someone like 4th war Waver who's not confident to take the lead or who can be flexible and willing to break rules (and give praise) like Kairi from apocrypha war would be best.

Although... Ricardo's goals could share some affinity with Rider, so if there is not a more compatible servant out there for him, Rider could take the mantle.

Now shut up and give me your horn so I can forge mythical weapons.

Granblue Fantasy: Rhapsody in Red

When I come to, I find myself surrounded by a familiar sky. Usually, such beautiful sight would let my mind be at ease, however, in this particular case, the first emotion that shakes my heart is fear. I am falling at an extremely fast pace, and my mind cannot afford to waste a moment to come up with a reason why my life suddenly has been put at risk. All I can do is try to grab a hold of that sky in a futile attempt to save my life. But it is useless, not even when I am this close to it, not even when I am literally submerged in it, can I claim it. It's only natural. From the very beginning, it was forged to represent freedom.

"Ah... Hah..."

The presence of a mighty creature makes itself known. I can tell with just a single glance that its existence is something that is beyond human understanding. It looks like a dragon wrapped up in chains, but that's not what my very being registers it as. After all, had it been an actual dragon, I would have felt fascination, above all. However, even though it has yet to make an actual effort to scare me, all that those black wings seem to inspire is... Terror.

"..."

Embracing my helplessness, I let it do as it wishes and communicate with me. Contrary to its monstrous visage, the words it utters do nothing but assure my own safety. The actual meaning behind them is hard to grasp, however, the firm conviction behind them convinces me that they cannot be anything but the absolute truth.

---What follows cannot be called anything but a trial.

The 'dragon' asks me how far I am willing to go for my selfish dreams, whether I am willing to step on the corpses of others to achieve them or whether I can sacrifice my ideal for someone else's well-being. I guess it would be normal to feel intimidated by the weight behind that question, but...

For some reason, I can only feel my blood boil.

"I do not believe bonds to be burden. On the contrary, I would have never gotten this far without them."

Mother and father.

... And my crew. Even if in the end I was left behind, I don't hold anything against them.

"Should I ever think that way, I am sure one of them will hit me. Our bonds are not something that can be looked down on. It cannot be untied."

I make a picture of them in my head.

Before I know it, I am sharing my sincere thoughts with the 'dragon'.

"But... Should we have to walk our separate ways... I'd like it to be on good terms... So we can all feel satisfied."

The supreme being listens intently. Not once does it try to interrupt me or defy my logic. I instinctively understand that it is not its purpose to do so. That said, once I allow silence to return to the skies, it mercilessly breaks it with another question, one more confusing than the last.

I guess what it wants to know if I am willing to become some sort of hero, or rather, a tragic hero, a martyr, seeing as it mentions that 'I've failed before my real journey has even begun'. To be honest, I do not really know what to answer to that. Unlike the last question, this one actually manages to leave me speechless. I am not trying to conceal anything, and I do not feel confident enough to defy its logic. I just...

"I... Don't know."

But it won't be satisfied with just that. Before I can recover, it delivers another blow in the form of a third question. What is the force that drives me? What is the strength that will keep me moving forward even when tragedy may be inevitable? To that...

"I want to leave a mark, a proof that I've lived my life to the fullest."

Just like mother and father have.

And, more than anything, I want someone to find that 'proof'. So that, maybe, that person will feel the same as I.

In response, the beast does not merely acknowledge me, it breaks free from its bindings and unleashes a binding flash of light, intense enough to cover the entire sky.

Ah, this is bad, at this rate, I will...

-------

"Hnng..."

When I open my eyes once more, I am welcomed by the foul smell and dark surroundings of my cell, located at the inescapable prison, Ziggurat. For me to have such a fantastical dream, sleep deprivation must have really gotten the better of me. But I guess it was par for the course... After all, we've been working on a plan to finally find freedom. I am not the kind of person who would spend all my chips on a reckless plan with little chances of success, especially if the cost for failure is most likely death, but I have reached the conclusion that my demise will be inevitable if I continue to wait here, arms crossed. A fair amount of inmates mistook me for a Harvin -even when I share my cell with an actual Harvin!- and before I knew it, I was part of a scheme to break out of Ziggurat. I would have liked to plan things more carefully, but time is not something we can stop. Today's the chance of a lifetime and we cannot afford to let it go to waste.

---It cannot be helped, today we might have to fight for our lives.

Gilvan is the one to make the first move. With a body of a child and my magic unavailable, there isn't really much I can do, so I decide to observe instead. Assuming the plan worked and the cell was unlocked by the force behind the impact, it would be reckless to simply run outside. It is likely the guard will notice the sudden noise and make a 180 degree turn to check. In that case, we have a higher chance to neutralize him the moment he gets close to the cell.

Granted, should he fail to register what's going on, we also know what we have to do...

_Identity

Though one might not be able to tell at first glance, Inori is the presumed heir to the Yamanaka Clan. Once a shy and obedient kid, puberty appears to have transformed her into a rebel without a cause. With little regard for family or even shinobi traditions, going as far as dying her own hair a different color and using colored contact lenses to match, the girl struggles to leave the shadow of her clan and become someone unique, someone who is not defined by blood or secret techniques. Her attitude has caused those within the Yamanaka Clan to worry about their future. The current head can only hope that her behavior is temporary, or else he'll have to make the necessary changes to assure that his leadership is passed down to a 'worthy' individual. Regardless, the girl does not seem to care, nor does she show interest in whoever may claim the position. When asked why she intends to become a ninja in spite of it all, Inori confesses that 'it's probably the only thing she's good at' and that it'll be 'the easiest and fastest way to leave home', adding that 'if she proves herself to be capable enough, she'll earn good money'.

Following her own sense of fashion [and life], she is not known to quickly cast away others in prejudice. Things like race, physical shape, clan and overall background are not obstacles in forming a bond with her, however, she puts great emphasis in actions and decisiveness during first impressions. She's no stranger to street fighting, so sometimes things simply do not work out. She is not afraid to join a group of outcasts, and has found the Akimichi and Nara clan to be compelling partners to spend the time with. For one, quietly eating and slacking off can be quite enjoyable provided the timing is right.

When the situation calls for it, Inori displays traits of a realist -and sometimes those of a pessimist-, often being overwhelmed by such thoughts in the middle of combat. She's not someone who finds violence exciting, but someone who dominates it like blacksmiths do with their hammer. This may make her appear to be more mature than she looks, but in truth, she's just another desperate soul in need of guidance. Because she is at odds with her family, she seeks answers elsewhere, and industry has found a way into her heart in the way of music. Most of her allowance has been spent in a CD-player and a set of headphones.

_{Personal History}

Inori´s fist years were no different than those of most. Having been born in a period of peace, she was never exposed to loss and strife, and was able to spend most of her time with her family. At the age of four, however, she was selected as a candidate for a particular investigation that required the mandatory aid of children from the Yamanaka Clan to take off. Seeing as Inori had no brothers nor sisters, and that in the future she would have to become the house head, her parents were naturally against it. However, once they witnessed the results of the experiment in other children, they nodded in approval without a second thought. From that age, every day at evening, Inori´s training regime would begin to include hypnotic sessions. The goal was to create a 'controlled' second personality or 'second mind' that would be able to learn and perform tasks regardless of the user's real motivation, affinity or mental state. For a long time, Inori remained oblivious to the existence of this second aspect of herself and had virtually no recollection of what kind of exercises she underwent during hypnosis. On the other hand, her parents were fully aware, and they were able to witness how their daughter, who disliked kenjutsu and refused to practice it, was no capable to hold her own in combat against someone at least twice her age while in trance.

By the time Inori was enlisted in the academy, she had already learnt about her alter ego. She accepted it and used it mostly like a tool when the need arose. She was proud to be able to study to become a ninja and she was quite excited, as well. So much so, that one day she decided to spend the entire day tracking a group of Genin as they carried out missions through the village. She felt... Betrayed. From pulling out weeds to walking dogs or bringing pets back home, their labors weren't anything close to what she had been told. Unwilling to accept reality, she repeated the process another day, this time with a shinobi of higher rank, a Chunin. She was glad to see that his tasks carried plenty of responsibility. Delivering messages and watching the gate might look tame in comparison to other kind of tasks, but they were really important. They had a meaning and required ninja talent to be carried out in the best manner possible. Sadly, at certain point the Chunin simply decided to put off his duties and slack off while supposedly on duty. This was because there was no sense of urgency and everyone had become accustomed to the villages being at peace. Inori learned that it wasn't just him, a lot of officers did exactly the same thing, even if they had different forms to display it.

The only ones who were different were those who stood out. Their looks and attitude, it was simply alien in comparison. However, you could tell with just a glance that they actually cared about their job. From this point onward, Inori began to see a pattern. Looking generic meant you were part of a collective whose boring destiny had already been carved in stone. This was especially true within her clan. A lot of members looked the same, learned the same techniques and, in doing so, sacrificed their identity. So Inori did what she had to do and it all began with a drastic change in appearance. Because she wasn't willing to part with her beautiful name, she instead changed her hair color. Every family head had had blonde hair, so this made her immediately stand out. She began swimming against the current, and before anyone could tell, she had gone from sweet and obedient to 'problematic child'. Skipping class, becoming involved in fights, they became usual news for the Yamanaka.

Eventually, swayed by music and the mentality of the new world, her faith for Shinobi decayed and together with it, her drive to become someone truly special. Since it was likely that, even if she put all she had into it, she would end up just like all those 'slackers' nonetheless -And even if she did manage to become special, as things were, her talents would not be needed-, as breaking fate did not simply entail a change in appearance, she figured she might as well stop trying and join the flock. Nowadays, her rebellious nature remains present in her entire being, however, her look on things is now much more realistic/pessimistic.

_{Character Development & Conceptualization}

With a mindset unlike her peers, Inori has seemingly lost her faith not just in the ways of old but in what the future departs, and with it the passion that comes with becoming a 'true' ninja. Having decided to live life in a selfish way just so she can be at ease, watch her struggle as reality continues to prove, time after time, that being a shinobi isn't as easy as she initially thought. Will she succumb under the pressure of hardship and loss, choosing to escape, abandoning the life of a ninja just to continue moving forward? Or will she be able to recall, to re-ignite the embers of a dying flame that some people call 'The Will of Fire'?

Attributes

---

_{Character Focus & Skillset}

Street Fighter: A lot of Inori's fighting experience comes from unarmed fights where no rules are involved. Granted, these were normally small skirmishes between her and other problematic group of peers her age, resulting in the incidents having little consequence. That said, since she was more often than not the one being outnumbered, she has learned how to anticipate and deal with coordinated attacks executed from different directions, how to properly use the environment in secluded spaces to her advantage and has developed certain resistance that allows her to recover faster from attacks that would normally leave one dazed for a good second or two. Naturally, this has come at the cost of Inori being the one at the losing end for quite some time.

Combat-Knife Expertise: Despite seemingly being a natural fist fighter, Inori excelled in Kunai duels during Traditional Shinobi Sparring at the Academy, especially in the ones that involve dual-wielding, managing to emerge on top of her class. Being no genius, however, the spotlight was taken away from her in most other disciplines. Proud of her achievement, though, she has continued to train the art and even purchased her own personal knife weapon, which she can wield as well, if not better, as the regular kunai.

Hit and Run Specialist: Inori might not be the fastest one around, but she is one of the few who has learned how to take advantage of her small stature. In battle, she prefers to sacrifice offensive potential if it means coming out from an exchange unscratched. Rather than someone who aims battles in a single act, Inori likes to play the long game and exhaust opponents, weakening them little by little through 'chip damage'. Through feints, slides and carefully planned jumps, Inori constantly moves around the battlefield, leaving and resuming combat at a fast pace. Naturally, she's at her best against taller foes on closed locations like the inside of a building. In the open, she often needs to resort to the use of traps or outside support.

Mind Body Switch Technique

Mind Division Technique: Alter Ego

Mind Division Technique: Alter Ego
Rank: C
Description: A new Jutsu in experimental stages developed by the Yamanaka Clan with the aid of Konoha's Scientific Team for investigation purposes. Though weaker in complexity in comparison to the Mind-Body Switch Technique, the time required to 'nurture' it makes children more suitable for testing than adults. In essence, once one has learned how to artificially develop a 'second personality', the next stage is being able to willingly be able to swap between them. This makes the Mind Division Technique: Alter Ego the required 'switch' to awaken the 'second personality' as well as the safeguard that 'allows one to go back'. Since the Yamanaka possess the knowledge required to mold and separate a 'second personality' to their liking, there is little risk of the mind becoming unestable as a result. Indeed, this 'second personality' is often raised to feel no pain or emotion and focus entirely on a single task. In a sense, it's currently more of a strange form of self-suggestion than anything else. In Inori's case, the chosen focus for her 'second personality' has been 'Swordsmanship'. When this state of mind is awakened, her skills with the sword raise significantly for a short period of time, usually no more than three minutes. However, once the time is up, she displays no recollection of what happened during that time. Though the 'body' can learn, the mind 'seals away' the acquired experience in order to protect mental integrity, leaving skills trained by one's 'alter ego' as exclusive to their personality and vice-versa. This was the technique's original goal, to be able to master a greater number of skills by dividing the effort between two personalities. As it is still in experimental stages, it will take at least a few years for it to yield reliable results.

_{D Rank}

Earth Style: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique

Mind Division Technique: Accel

Mind Division Technique: Accel
Rank: D
Description: A hidden Jutsu that allows the members of the Yamanaka Clan to effectively separate their current 'awareness' into two or more and then redirect each part's focus to a specific process. As a result, the one's thought process become faster and more accurate, akin to a calculator. So long as the user's senses can properly 'perceive' phenomena and their bodies can 'keep up', anticipating the immediate future becomes a trivial matter. However, speeding one's thoughts in this way can cause an effect similar to 'overheating' if used for too long. Usually the greater the number of mind-partitions the Yamanaka creates, the greater the risk. At her current age, Inori can only create accelerate her thought process through a single additional partition for about a half an hour before she is assaulted by a sharp headache and has to stop. When is use, her awareness becomes such that it becomes hard to surprise or distract her, and although prediction of the immediate future is impossible, the success of actions that involve throwing or intercepting projectiles is greatly increased. It also provides a bonus in close-quarter combat where being able to 'read one's opponent' is vital, but a more experienced fighter can easily cancel it, due to differences in skill.

Earth Style: Stone Pistol Technique

Earth Style: Stone Pistol Technique
Rank: D
Description:After forming the necesary handseals, the Ninja molds Earth Natured Chakra inside their mouth, creating pebble-sized projectiles that are later expelled with great speed and force. Five singular consecutive shots can be fired in a small window of time. The aim can be slightly adjusted between each shot, but they will all follow a linear trajectory.

Granblue Fantasy: Rhapsody in Red

Kagami

Appearance

Name: Kagami

Gender: Male

Age: 23 (Real), 12 (Apparent)

Race: Human

Element: Water

Dream: Kagami dreams to be the first man to publish a complete map of Tyragrande. However, since he believes a map should include more than just a geographical guide for travelers, it would be more accurate to say that what he is working on is more akin to an expansive tour guide, including landmarks, native customs, figures of interest and famous legends of each place. As a result, it is written in book format and will most likely take at least a decade to finish in the best case scenario. As a secondary goal, he hopes to undo the curse that has been placed on him, which has transformed his body into that of an infant.

Home: Kagami comes from Egrea, an island known for being at a considerably lower altitude than the rest. There exists a widespread rumor that Egrea was once much higher up in the sky, but fell to its current position sometime during an ancient war. As a result, skyfarers prefer to avoid visiting it, and even their own inhabitants fear that the island may one day fall down to the Earthly Realm. Despite its favorable weather conditions and lack of extremely powerful or 'rare' monsters, about seventy percent of the current generation has already left the place behind and set out to explore the world or in search of another home, one with a more promising future.

Gimmicks: Kagami has never been someone suited for physical combat, even more now that his body is that of a child. That said, even though he wouldn't stand a chance to emerge victorious in an actual fist/arms fight, his small figure combined with professional experience as an escapee make him a nimble adversary to face. His most noteworthy trait is the knowledge he has accumulated during his twenty three years of life, some from his parent's library, some from his time as an adventurer. He is well versed in deciphering codes, can write in a good dozen languages and speak fluently in at least half of them, and has received teachings in the arcane arts as well. In combat, he unleashes a variety of spells through the use of magical tomes called grimoires [He is pretty much defenseless without them]. The element he is most attuned to is water, and his skill set sacrifices offensive power for a good number of support spells, defenses and healing. However, if a big enough mass of water is present nearby, his offensive potential gains a significant boost [although still tame in comparison to more offensive-oriented elements, like fire or darkness].

Personality: Kagami possesses a personality that is too mature for a child, mostly because he is an adult-who-has-been-turned-into-a-kid. He may be gentle and somewhat innocent, but his serious demeanor often makes him stand out immediately. He's the kind of person who thinks about something a lot instead of just letting emotions take the reigns of the situation. As a result, sometimes he can be hesitant or shy, especially in social encounters. Some jokes and idioms seemingly fly over his head. On the other hand, when he is familiar with a certain task, he can focus on it in a way only a few can, his actions well-executed and accurate, like those of a machine. Naturally, Kagami is also very curious and shows interest whenever he comes in contact with something new or rare. That said, he tries not to peek where he is not welcome, so he doesn't really insist when he doesn't get the answers he seeks. Personally, Kagami enjoys devoting most of his free time to his dream, meaning you can regularly spot him reading, writing or drawing. Although there are benefits from being confused with a kid, he doesn't like when people seemingly ignore his opinions because he looks like one. He also insists he is not a 'Harvin with undeveloped ears', but a lot of people seem to start thinking of him as one once they realize 'he's too smart to be a human kid'.

Background: Kagami's parents were indeed strange, for despite living in Egrea, they had no desire to leave the island. With the promise that one day the island would crash into the Earthly Realm, most of those who stayed in Egrea were people who simply lacked the means to leave. This was not the case with Kagami's parents, who had even spent a good amount of time and effort pouring all their knowledge into the island's library, which they owned. Some of the books were even written by them. After all, the two of them had been, at some point in the past, skyfarers. And so, Kagami grew surrounded by stories of adventures, all of which involved air travel and wondrous creatures. It was only natural for him to develop the desire to see these things for himself and live the life of a skyfarer. He urged his parents to help him build a ship and accompany him in his travels, but they only agreed to the former, arguing that Egrea was the place where they had fallen in love, and so they were not worried about its promised downfall. Seeing that, as things were, this meant that he might not see them again, Kagami promised to someday return with the fruits of his labor, to share stories with them the same way they had with him.

The years that followed saw Kagami traveling around Tyragrande alongside a group of friends, becoming the pilot of his own skyship. His life was not just that of an adventurer, but also that of a treasure hunter [Although rather than steal, he'd merely write what he found about them], and this often got him into trouble with local authorities, from which he had to escape from a good dozen times in the past. His luck began to run out when, one day during his expeditions to a certain island, he came across a temple and ended up -accidentally- waking a strong primal beast. The island was swallowed in its rage and entire villages were destroyed. More importantly, a mysterious curse caused Kagami's body to revert into that of a little child. His crew, eager to abandon the island, didn't recognize him and so he was left for dead. Believing the primal beast to be the source of his misfortune, Kagami set to undo his wrong-doings. Having investigated the creature's myth and origin, he developed a plan to calm it down. Sadly, he didn't have enough strength to pull it off and was promptly defeated. A certain female hero appeared at that time, when Kagami was about to lose consciousness, a mysterious figure whose strength defied reason: Someone who those familiar enough would call 'an Eternal'.

When Kagami woke up, he had been nursed back to health, but his position was no better. He had been captured by the Zweite army and accused of being the cause of the whole incident [which was actually true]. Moreover, even though the Primal Beast had returned to its slumber, his body had not returned to normal! You'd think Zweite would be kind enough not to throw a kid into prison, but what do you know? To them, he looked like a Harvin with undeveloped ears-!

And so, under the guise of a human kid -a harvin to some-, he waits for an opportunity to escape to arise.

Inventory:
- A good number of grimoires.
- A compilation of old Tyragrande maps and notes, mostly outdated.
