Scáthach

In a place deep within the Moon Cell, amidst the crashing waves of the digital sea, a lone amphitheater stood amongst what looked to be an immense expense of ruins from many ancient civilizations that once upon a time inhabited, the now semi-dead, Earth. In place of what would normally be the honor tribune of such a building, there was a large, obelisk-like doorway, etched with seven seals radiating energy all over it. This door was nothing other than the accessway to the Moon Cell’s deepest level, its one true core, locked away for a reason that all of the Servants who began to materialize and fill a few of the theather’s seats would know already.

Even though the Moon Cell was bound to grant knowledge of the present circumstances for the Servants it summoned, an imposing red-haired woman, dressed in robes that left no doubts about she being a member of the Caster class, said as she stepped upon a podium at the center of the arena, “It’s an honor to be in the presence of so many legendary heroes that got summoned here for the sake of preserving the integrity of the true last beacon of hope for the Earth’s future. I’m Scáthach, the Queen of the Land of Shadows, chosen by the Moon Cell to be your guide in this conflict which exceeds the scale of even the greatest Holy Grail War ever fought.

I believe all of you are already aware of the circumstances surrounding the presence known as Moon Dominion and the locking down of the Moon Cell’s core, thus I’ll spare you of this repetition and cut straight to your first task.

Beyond each of these gates,” Scáthach said as she pointed to a set of seven gates distributed around the arena floor, one of which shone in an intermittent, dim green glow, “lies a different section of the SERAPH which lays unused in any of the previous Moon Holy Grail Wars. Your task is to retrieve an encryption key hidden somewhere in each of these areas. The first one of which this Great Hyperborean Lunar Sea. Based on our scouts, it’s a section of the SERAPH modeled after both Classical Mythology and American Folklore. We expect a fierce resistance of the both the Moon Dominion’s followers and other abandoned programs who inhabit the closed sectors.

I suppose this is all of the information we are certain of at the moment since Clairvoyance based skills don’t work beyond the boundaries of the SERAPH’s locked sections. Even so, if there’s still any questions you may wish to ask, do not hesitate. Otherwise, I’ll be waiting for your decision regarding when to leave.”
Apologies for the longer than usual delay.

Let me see what I have to address, before having the IC up and running.

Thanks. I'll take a look at this later, when I have some proper time.

@Cu Chulainn@Pyromania99@1Charak2
If you wish to change characters for some reason, you are welcome to do so. Just be sure to make a choice you feel comfortable with, since that's the most important thing.

@Froppy
D'Artagnan seems alright, you can move him to the Character's tab if you want.

So just a quick question.

Due to issues with Neil(mostly worrying I couldn't do him justice), decided to look at Henry Ford as I think I noted before, unsure. But anyway, did some digging and found someone had done him before in the make a servant thread. Not planning to take the entire sheet of course, no no, but I was wondering if it'd be fine to use some elements from it? For inspiration, since I'm doing Rider, rather than Caster.

If there's an issue with that, I'll work completely on my own of course.

Well, I have nothing against taking inspiration from someone else's version of an OC Servant. Creativity isn't a limitless resource, after all, especially when it comes to this issue. You are free to do as you wish.

@Breo
He's alright now. You can post him in the CS tab as well.

@GreenGoat
Hanzo is ok as well. You can do as the others.

@Player 2
I'll take a better look at this Asterios later since it's a modified version of his already existing canon self, so I have to analyze him with a bit of caution.

@1Charak2
If Quetz is your final choice, she's ok. Just bear in mind what I said above since changing characters after they are already in the IC will likely not be possible.

@SSW
This choice is rather unexpected to say the truth, but I don't see anything out of the ordinary with it. And, given that Atalanta is a precedent of beastly looking Servant, you can go forward with it. You can move her to the CS tab like the others.
Anyway, with this number of approved Servants, I guess that I can announce what I came up with in terms of plot.

An unknown enemy naming themselves the "Moon Dominion" hijacked the control of the Moon Cell's core following Velber's last fly-by. In order to protect its integrity, the Moon Cell locked its core behind seven layers of encryption (sealing the Moon Dominion inside of it) and spread the access keys through several different points of the SERAPH. The Dominion selected a number of agents (Servants) to try and recover the encryption keys. Without any other choice, the Moon Cell had to do the same and summon a number of Servants to recover the keys before the Moon Dominion ones, in order to have them fight the Dominion head on and try to eliminate the threat.

The location of the 1st key is going to a land where traditional folklore meets classic mythology. A mix of North (and perhaps Central and South) American legends with Greek Classics. Though I'm yet to come up with a fitting name.

This is the gist of it so far.

Anyway, if there's any questions or suggestion you can make them here. I'll try to be back tomorrow with the IC already up so that we can get going.
@Parallel Hearts

While I'll move medusa into the cs tab as is, I might app a couple skills seperately for you to review in order to better distinguishify her kit, Mostly because the base is done, I think I can attempt to add a few creative replacements,

Namely replacing IA, and MS with slightly differing forms, having decided this medusa is closer to gorgon then rider medusa

(Also her alignments Chaotic neutral now)


I don't know if allowing to change her now that she has been approved would be fair with everyone else that already got an approved character. I'll think about it, though.

@SubjectVision

I like this Servant idea. Also, I don't see any problems with the CS, so you can move him to the Characters' tab as well.

@floodtalon

Siegfried is alright as well. You can add him to the Characters' tab.

That moment everyone on the allied team, bar Scathach is vulnerable to Cybele so far.

Seems like medusa might actually end up killing her allies by accident.


I'm pretty much sure that MR will help anyone who has it and Constantine is a Ruler so...

@Parallel Hearts A question, if i may ask out of sheer curiosity:

Would "El Dorado" be applicable as a servant? The mythical priest-king who spawned the legend, specifically.


I don't see why not. You are welcome to do it, if want.

@Parallel Hearts

Will we be getting a discord?


It's as @Moonlit Sonata said. If you want it, you can do one and send me a link as well. But, I'll not be there most of the time so try to ask any important questions over here preferentially.
@Red Alice

I hope this helps with your questions from the interest check.
Ok, for the (probable) last update of today, I'll give you all a glimpse of one of the enemies that'll appear in the 1st chapter of the story. Hopefully, this will be a fun game, since this cast is giving me some interesting ideas:

@Cu Chulainn

Like I said before, I think that Constantine is alright. You can add him to the Characters tab.
@floodtalon

Well, almost everything there is alright. I just have a couple questions:

1st, why is it that he has Clairvoyance when he's neither an Archer, nor a Caster, and (as far as I remember Siegfried's backstory in Fate) he's a very short-sighted individual who takes bad decisions at the drop of a hat if he thinks that he's doing good? In its place, he probably could have Disengage, or maybe something else in its place. Unless of course you have a reason behind it.

2nd, the Luck rank down on his last Noble Phantasm is too harsh. Perhaps something like "Two-Three ranks down to a minimum of E" would be a little bit more fair, I think. After all, there are some Servants that are born just so lucky that even the greatest curse of them all wouldn't be that much of an issue to them.
@Duoya@BlueHelix@floodtalon@Yukitamas@Crusader Lord@Love Detective@Sunglass

If any of you are still interested, the link to the main thread is a couple posts above.
@Parallel Hearts

Sorry this is clearly a fault on my part. This is the 'blackened' version of medusa lancer your referring which is technicallly a altered form (The kind we see in the OVa) Regular medusa lancer does exist (one of her varients being lily (But the ova proves the adult form doee exist)) I was just a bit strangled for good medusa art outside of her rider self.

This one is unblackened and thus her alignment remains unchanged.

If it makes it easier I can change her art to that of her rider self. I simply liked the different in spirit dress for telling them apart.

That said the presence of gorgon breaker makes this one a bit further from her monstrous self, (Its mostly there to avoid insta gimping the other PC's by accident, Cybele is one hell of a op mystic eyes


No problem, it was just a misinterpretation issue.

Like I said before, she's ok. You can move her to the CS tab.
