Fate/Crimson Dusk - War of Light, Grey, and Dark

@vancexentanThat was never my plan. I was originally going with reanimating small animals with magic circuits, the way most mages do it. Making little rock creatures seems thematically better, though, as long as a rock bird can still fly.

Fate/Crimson Dusk - War of Light, Grey, and Dark

@vancexentanLike a small animal or something. I assumed that was the default, but after reading up on the subject on the wiki I guess it's worth specifying.

EDIT: Come to think of it, maybe he should build small creatures out of earth/rocks instead.

Fate/Crimson Dusk - War of Light, Grey, and Dark

@vancexentanYou're forgetting me. Now that I'm home, I'll set to work on my master's more character-based components. How does his spell sheet look, by the way?

Fate/Crimson Dusk - War of Light, Grey, and Dark

@vancexentanI have been distracted these past few days. I'll try to have my master complete and ready for review by Thursday, though I'll likely be busy tomorrow.

Fate/Crimson Dusk - War of Light, Grey, and Dark

@vancexentanI've gotta finish my master. I think it's mostly masters we're waiting on, actually.

@MigyudonHigh-Speed Incantation is a personal skill, not that the distinction comes up often.

On another note, I'd better finish my master soon, before I'm holding back the RP. I'll put him here as a W.I.P. in case anyone has any advice.

Master of Archer of Black (w.i.p.)

Name: August Thane
Age: 37
Gender: Male
Master of: Archer of Black
Command Seal Location: Right Hand
Origin: Seeking

Appearance

Personality

A man who doesn’t give up easily, August believes that the best approach to a difficult situation is to remain calm, confident, and focus on making optimal decisions. His respect is highest toward those who deny their lot in life and never give up, while he has little patience for people who give up easily or waste time worrying about their chances of failure. August isn’t afraid to contend with enemies while at a disadvantage and has very few moral qualms. However, he has a strong understanding of the value of mage bloodlines, and tries to refrain from killing a mage when it would result in the destruction of their family’s careers as mages. As a mage trying to further his family, August’s intent for the Holy Grail is to reach the root. However, if he should end up unable or unwilling to sacrifice his servant, he would be satisfied with gaining the second magic: “Kaleidoscope”.

Biogaphy

The Thane's magic bloodline stretches back many generations, and for most of those generations, they’ve been just barely tolerated by the Mage’s Association. The Thanes were known for taking little pride in their own work as mages, making indecent use of modern technology to make up for what was seen as a weak magic crest, and were suspected of stealing mystic codes and research notes from various minor families throughout history. In a secluded home in rural England in 1978, August Thane was born into the family as an only child. His mother, Marianne, was little more than a stooge, selected by his family because for her high capacity to bear magically inclined children, and because she wasn’t from a high-up family that would demand much in return. His father, Charles, was a somewhat unforgiving man, and so August began an early education in magic, combat, and “treasure hunting”. When August was 19, Charles suffered an unusual injury during an expedition that left him unable to properly utilize his magic circuits, and August inherited the Thane magic crest. Throughout the years that followed, August completed his training under his mother and set off to salvage the Thane family name in the eyes of the greater magic community.

In the years that followed, August managed to establish himself as someone the clock tower could rely on, retrieving various artifacts for private clients in positions of power in the association. Recently, however, his jobs have gotten riskier and risker, causing August to wonder if the Association is testing the limits of a new operative, or trying to get rid of him without getting blood on their hands.

@MigyudonOkay, I'll certainly try to help you out with whatever I can. Vance will probably be more help, though, since they're obviously very experienced and as GM have the final say on what's allowed and how things work.

Fate/Crimson Dusk - War of Light, Grey, and Dark

@vancexentanTo be fair, all Archer has now in relation to the divine is extra resistance to holy magic.

@MigyudonLooks like you missed the Item Construction class skill for Casters. I don't know much about this guy, but is their any reason he should miss out on one of his class' skills altogether?
