Reboot: Fate/Crimson Dusk - A PVE Grand Holy Grail War

I'm in for this again. I'll be bringing a different set of characters than last time. Whether my servant is canon or otherwise, I'll be satisfied with just about any class, except maybe Assassin.

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

That's too bad. If you try for a reboot with another interest check I'll certainly follow, but I can't say I'm interested in a story about such a large group if there's only two players.

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

I'm fine to continue so long as both @Seirei No Hai and @IceHeart are. However, if either of them are dropping out I feel the numbers would be too small to be worth continuing. I'll hold off on posting until we have a head count.

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

I guess my word choice was off. Sorry for being late, I'll just go tomorrow instead, although I do still think @Tenma Tendo should get first reaction, considering the situation.

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

I was waiting for Tendo to react to their own injuries. I can't post tonight, but I likely will tomorrow.

August Thane & Archer of Black

Summoning Hall, The Clock Tower

August nodded as the Director proclaimed the completion of their faction. He wondered if Caster's regal disposition would pose a problem, but knew Monica would have to deal with her own Servant's personality. Saber on the other hand seemed like she would be very helpful, since she made clear she would be fine in the position of a Servant and also revealed her identity as Jeanne D'arc, a well-known figure who would certainly have a strong set of abilities. August surveyed the group, trying to pick someone to get better acquainted with, when-

"U-Um...repeat wh-what Director say?"

August paused for a moment, looking down at the boy who was the last person he would have expected to approach him. Ah, so that's why he barely said a thing until now. His rather flashy and odd berserker had seemingly followed him, and was approaching Archer, but August simply took a moment to consider the most comprehensible phrasing before answering, "He said we are the Black Faction and have to fight the Red Faction. Meet the others, then we will get our things and fly to Poland." He waited, searching the boy's mostly-hidden face for some sign of understanding, before switching from quoting the Director to more natural-sounding conversation. "I'm August, by the way. He extended a hand, "Since you were called for this war despite your age and the language barrier, you must be a very powerful mage. Where are you from?" It was an odd thing to say, but August tried his best to give an expression that made it clear he was only complimenting the boy for overcoming disadvantages to be where he was.

Meanwhile, Archer was engaged in an equally unusual exchange with the boy's Berserker-

"W-We'll...we'll be relying on...o-on you from now on..."

He was having some difficulty gauging the reason why she was so hesitant to speak, but her face gave him the impression she found it hard to acknowledge his value. As he shook her hand, Archer spoke, "Sure, Berserker. My range really is quite long, so feel free to call for my help when you're having trouble, as long as you're outdoors." There was no maliciousness in his words, yet if this Berserker's pride was the of sort he suspected it was, the idea that he would help her when she was in trouble might prove rather irritating to her. Still, Archer didn't want to make the group start falling apart before they even reached the location of the war. "You aren't a mindless warrior like most Berserkers, though, are you? That's a good thing, since you'll be able to work better with the faction." Archer spoke disarmingly, so as to avoid sending Berserker in to a rage befitting of her class. "In that case, I'll be relying on you, as well."

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

With Christmas gone by I can get back to this. Also, can we see Caster and Assassin's parameters?

Archer of Black

Summoning Hall, The Clock Tower

"Good to know you as well, Saber," Archer smiled and gave a cheerful nod. "The same obviously goes for you, Assassin and Rider. As well as..." He turned to the nearby circle where a very unusual looking girl had been summoned, "That boy used the extra lines for a Berserker, didn't he? I can't say that Servant looks normal, exactly, but it sounds like she's using full sentences." He glanced at his Master, who also seemed slightly confused by the display. "That's a good point. It looks like she's harassing him, though, so it's possible she just has a low rank of Mad Enhancement." Archer nodded, and looked at the other new Servant, who had been summoned in a chalk circle separate from the others. "That man, on the other hand, can only be Lancer. Which means we're just missing Caster." He glanced at the girl standing near the director, the only Master August had pointed out who didn't have a Servant yet.

Having identified the new Servants, Archer decided to call them over to where most of the group seemed to have gravitated, between Saber, Rider, and Assassin's summoning circles. "Lancer and Berserker! Come join your faction, won't you?" Facing the Servants near him again, he continued, "I myself do have a wish for the Grail, but let's not trouble ourselves with such things while the Red Faction still stands."

Inb4 he steps on a rock and dies

@Gummy1295

Rocks are dangerous to lawnmowers. Fortunately, Ach doesn't die when he's killed.

Fate/Vacuous Radiance

@Seirei No Hai No problem. Ach is still single and ready to mingle.
