Manco Capac

What luck. What luck indeed. A custodial ghost who was merely curious about who was tapping into the Leyline. And a familiar of the grail no less. Without a doubt this put them in the greatest advantage. Knowing before all others just where the grail will appear. Best of all, they sat right upon it. Unfortunately, while sitting on it, they had become targets to anybody else who may figure this out as well. And it put a hamper on his plans to use this spot as the location of his finalized noble phantasm. But, there were other spots that had less value to him. He could easily set up elsewhere, or better... Expand.

"To be honest, I'm glad you do not consider yourself the same as me." He bowed softly, with his golden staff being used to hold himself. "After all, had you marked yourself as a familiar, you would have robbed yourself of the things that make you different. Human individuality... It's the very reason I came here today. Because Mr. Giuseppe is an individual. An individual who sees things on individual levels. Had my summoner been anybody else, I would have resisted, and sent one of my descendants in my place. I am going to keep active, by increasing my network. But detective..." The blue haired Caster smiled at his summoner now.

"Go with her. I will keep an eye on both of you. But I will keep my focus on the grail war." He placed a hand on Giuseppe's shoulder, pushing him closer to the Guide. There was a soft screeching on the floorboards, as Caster's push was like that of a strong man, and Giuseppe was just a regular man. "You summoned me to participate in this war in your steed, while you investigated the happenings of Boston. We should keep to our roles for the time being." Caster's smile broadened, and he turned his attention back to his workshop. "Keep me up to date on what you learn. I'll be crafting some... Particular artifacts. As I suspect I'll have some materials coming in soon."

With that, Manco stepped away, a flick of a long feline tail showing him off, before he realized he'd forgotten to remove that, and pulled it back in. The caster returned to a makeshift workbench, and he gazed upon the very thing he'd been working on. A slender bow, carved with delicate hands. Silver was used in it's creation, the most valuable metal in the mind of Caster. "Soon. Soon I will have need for you."

If anybody has interest in insta-kill swordsman, let me know. Just be ready for "But Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaster!"

Fate/Eternum

Okay, ladies, you're both pretty. Take it to Discord or private messages.

Fate/Eternum

@VitaVitaAR Medusa needs a separate NP to Ride and control Pegasus. She has to use Bellerophon specifically to control pegasus. Something she can't do otherwise. It's a combination of Pegasus being born from her blood, which she recreates, and then uses Bellerophon to ride. Otherwise she'd just summon Pegasus, and then he'd fly away because she has no control of him otherwise.

Sinbad neither has the means to summon the Leviathan, Roc, or Elephant King, and neither does he have anything that would allow him to control him.

Fate/Eternum

Not to be that guy, but I think the issue with Sinbad is that you're giving him mounts of animals he met, not rode. He never tamed the Leviathan, the Roc, or the elephant king. It'd be like if Hercules could summon the Nemean Lion and ride on that. Or if Artoria could ride a Dragon. Just because they met or fought something, doesn't mean they're gonna be riding it.

Fate/Eternum

@PKMNB0Y I'm mostly thinking of making a Persian, but what they'll be doing for like a job still has to be decided.

Fate/Eternum

From Spears to Swords

Name: Diarmuid Ua Duibhne
Class: Saber
Appearance: A True Knight of Fianna
Personality: Saber is an extremely proud and noble knight who wishes to serve his lord to the best of his abilities. The geis laid upon him by Gráinne was taken by Saber as a test of his pride. He never once blamed her for forcing it upon him, and he truly admired her ability to throw away her pride, title, and future for the sake of her love. He was constantly distressed by the fact that he betrayed his lord, and even as he died while Fionn did nothing, he did not blame his lord for his actions. Saber believed that despite the cruel twist of fate that led him down this path, the days spent with his lord and his love were used to the fullest.

Stats:
Strength: B+
Endurance: B
Agility: A
Mana: D
Luck: E
Noble Phantasm: A

Class Skills:
- Magic Resistance A+
- Riding B
Personal Skills:
- Mana Burst (Jump) A: An increase in performance caused by infusing one's weapons and body with Magical Energy and instantly expelling it. Simply put, recreating the effect of a jet burst by expending large amounts of Magical Energy. For Diurmuid, this power is concentrated in his powerful legs. Accelerating his speed in leaps and bounds, literally. His speed as such can only increase.
- Honor of the Knights of Fianna B: A skill derived from the desire to protect the honor of a great kingdom. A skill that applies Battle Continuation and Bravery together. When damaged, or acting in defense of another, this skill activates further, granting Diarmuid strength and endurance in the face of increased danger. A Skill that make those who have it become more powerful as they are inflicted more pain. The cost used to heal injuries via magecraft or similar methods is reduced.
- Eye of the Mind (True) B: A heightened capacity for observation, refined through training, discipline and experience. A danger-avoidance ability that utilizes the intelligence collected up to the current time as the basis in order to predict the opponent’s activity and change the current situation. This is not a result of talent, but an overwhelming amount of combat experience. A weapon wielded by none other than a mortal, gained through tenacious training. So long there is even a 1% chance of a comeback, this ability greatly improves the chances of winning.
- Love Spot C: It is because of this curse that he is known as 'Diarmuid of the Love Spot'. A woman who confronts Diarmuid gains a strong love affection for him. Effects are similar to those of Charm-type Mystic Eyes. Avoidable with the Magic Resistance Skill.

Noble Phantasm(s):
Name: Moralltach: Surging Seas of Fury
Rank: B
Type: Anti-Unit
Effects: If we were to pick the strongest among the many weapons Diarmuid Ua Duibhne wields, it could only be this fearsome demonic sword. A blow bringing certain death, another certain victory. Unsheathing the demonic sword, Diarmuid is gifted with a blade of instant death, bringing defeat and ruin to the opponents. The demonic sword Moralltach, which can almost control even destiny, was awarded to him by the Celtic God of of the Sea and Underworld Manannán. Manannán is for sure the deity who gave the Noble Phantasm Fragarach to the Sun God Lugh, he possessed many Noble Phantasms and was a being who donates.
Should the blade strike flesh, death is sure to come. As the demonic blade's power rips through the body of a target, and tearing their life away.
When the true name is called, Time and space ripple and collide. Jumping Diarmuid directly to the target, and applying a single strike. At this time, Moralltach, resembling the "leg of the god Manannáns" from the legends, becomes the three blades to tear the enemy into pieces. This, combined with the blade's ability to kill with one strike, is a a certain death to those who do not possess a means to block all three strikes at once, or avoid.

Name: Beagalltach: Ripples of Passion
Rank: B
Type: Anti-Unit
Effects: Known as the blade of small fury, it is a counterpart to Diarmuid's Gáe Buidhe in that when not using Moralltach he would use Beagalltach in its steed. While Moralltach is a demonic blade, Beagalltach is a heavenly blade. It passively draws in magical energy, feeding it into Diarmuid. The blade is also a perfect defense, as it defends Diarmuid against attacks much like an angel would. It guides itself to intercept any attack directed at its wielder. Any sword or arrow can thus be considered 'worthless' against the defense this blade grants him.

Alignment: Lawful Neutral

Manco Capac

The cat was scooped up like a toy, and thumped against the floor. But as soon as the belly rubs ended, the feline faded away. Dark fur rolling into a soft skin, with a blue tinge around the ears. The massive jungle cat rose to his feet, revealing the face of Caster, having transformed himself into the large creature earlier. There was a flick of the tail as it began to curl back into Caster's body, and whiskers receded back into his face. The feline form vanished, and Manco raised up a hand, helping his summoner to his feet along with the strange woman. He didn't fully trust her yet, but the fact that she acted passively suggested she wasn't here to cause a fight. But they should be cautious.

"Well, it is a pleasure to meet you. I apologize for the strange method of introduction, but I am Caster." The servant said, a smile on his lips. Layering on the friendly aura. It helped that he had Negotiation B as a skill, easily making the situation a lot more amicable. "We did notify proper authorities, and all the documentation of our visit is in state hands. In all honesty, our goal is to provide protection for the people of Boston during this war. If you are invested in protecting the lives of innocents, then throwing your hat in with my summoner and I would give you the best means to do so." He bowed just a bit, but his guard never lowered. "We are bringers of peace, not war. Men who dedicate our lives to punishing the wicked. You are the same."

With that said, Caster hoped an understanding could be made. After all, it would be a shame to have to detain somebody on the premises for the period of the war.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
HAPSBURG RUINS!

The eyes of a crow. How... Valuable. Caster's web was massive. Caster's knowledge of the city was perfect. After all, he possessed Navigation A and Map-Making B as skills. Naturally he had already found the manor well before the attack upon it. The attack only made it more obvious to the eyes of the many familiars that lurked around the city. One such crow among others had settled on a part of the ruins, overlooking both Rider and her master. He spied the vehicle they came in on, and they guard who's life they spared. Even if it was for personal gain, Caster knew they weren't bad people. Already the odd raccoon was rummaging through the building, searching for anything of value. Animals were so easily ignored. They could squeeze into places humans could not. At best they might pilfer the smaller things, before Archer got his hands on the real prizes.

The crow fluttered in closer, landing on a clock, and watching as the golden archer returned. It was clear that this was the Archer class servant. A man with many gifts and blessings bestowed upon him. That much was clear. Furthermore, this was the servant of the Hapsburgs no doubt, but the crow did not speak, nor did he do anything to give himself away. After all, there was another servant here. Let Archer have them. The crow had his other things in mind. Even if the Hapsburg's magecraft was well beyond his own, some of it might have value.
