There are stupid questions, but if you pretend you were just joking you should be okay.

I sometimes hear about someone having skeletons in their closet. Ok? How do you know they're still in there? You can't just assume a skeleton is gonna stay still. This is your house, not a graveyard.

@vancexentanSorry about that. At first was holding off for @Seirei No Hai to post, but the holiday season kept me away longer than I should've been.
Speaking of teams, @Seirei No Hai would you like Achilles for Eira? He's expensive but he can mow your lawn.
@Over Illusion Damn, did you get stung by an ineptly-made CS as a child or something?
I've been busy recently, so I've missed some things, but looking back it seems like a few people are quite against Achilles. Maybe I'll switch him for another hero.
Archer of Black

Summoning Hall, The Clock Tower


"...You're my master."

The man in front of him seemed startled. The fog had only just cleared, but already Archer was on the edge of the circle, only a few feet away from the man who had clearly summoned him. He had wasted no time, striding across the circle as soon as his body had finished taking form. There were other Servants in the room already, and other Masters, but there was no doubt that the man he was now staring down was the mage to whom he was bound with a small smile. "I'm Servant Archer of the Black Faction." He stood about half a foot taller than his master, with an young athletic appearance, but his eyes betrayed a certain primal wildness, as though a storm were brewing behind them. "Hello."

The mage paused, seemingly taken aback by Archer's greeting, before responding. "Yes, I'm your Master. The proof is right here." He held up his right hand, which bore three command seals in the form of a jagged three-pronged shape. "My name is August Thane. I hope we can work together well, Archer." He extended a hand, which Archer clasped after a moment, sealing their contract. "Sorry if I've come off a little strong. It's good to meet you, August. I promise you won't be disappointed with my abilities," His small smile grew into a warm grin.

"That's good to hear." His master replied as he crouched down to pick up the piece of wood that sat on the ground between them. Archer watched his Master with some interest once he realized what the object was, but said nothing even as it was closed away inside a briefcase. Turning his attention to the room around him, Archer noted the others who occupied various parts of the great hall around him. In particular, his attention was naturally drawn to the three other Servants who had just been summoned. "Looks like a strong lineup so far... are those two twins?" August shook his head, "Unlikely. They look to be from very different lands. Anyway, come on." He moved back towards the entrance of the hall, where a group of mages who he quickly explained to Archer as the future Masters of Black and the Director were waiting.

"Just like I thought. I've summoned Archer," was all August said when he reached the Director and rejoined the crowd. Archer gave a bemused look at his Master's curt report, but remained silent as he waited for the rest of their faction to appear.
Maybe a dark blue like 505ab2? The only similar blue so far is Orson, and it's my impression he's not sticking around for the war.

Also, slight delays, but still posting tonight.
Archer post should be up soon. Also the yellow you're using for Jeanne is pretty similar to August's. Not that it matters too much, since they're unlikely to speak in the same post.
I won't go revealing the explicit strengths and weaknesses of it overtly, but all of the information needed to understand its strengths and weaknesses are given in the information.


You say that, but it doesn't help me understand. You don't have to explain anything, but know that if he uses it on Achilles I'm just going to have to interpret the exact nature of the effect on my own.

It's worth noting though that while the prana cost is low, his MGI is still D.


Fair enough.

By designating a legend, he is able to make a single-word change into its nature, altering a core aspect of it and replacing it with something else. As it is an alteration to the a priori information itself, the nature of the existence itself is irrelevant.
Additionally, he is not freely able to alter legends. Rather, he can only change a single component of the legend in question, altering a given word within the legend into the word "Constitution". The United States Constitution is the one thusly referred to in this case.


That is a pretty weird NP. Can it straight up turn Servants into copies of the Constitution? Or is it only objects and details surrounding them? Can it transform NPs into the Constitution, and if so, do they still retain their abilities aside from their shape?

...Actually, the image of Achilles being forced to ride into battle atop a copy of the Constitution being pulled by three horses is kinda funny to me, if a bit out-of-place in an actual Grail War context.

Also, if the prana cost is low, does that mean it can be used repeatedly on a singly target over a short timespan, rapidly turning every aspect of their life into the constitution?
I thought that was only as Santa (Joke Character), but it does make sense. Would she be stronger in that state, though?
