King Mu of Zhou - Ever want to be immortal? Mu really wanted to be immortal. So he set out on a series of wars, epic adventures, and failed each time. Perhaps one of the most famous anecdotes is about the animatronic that was made for him. A completely autonomous machine, and the first of its kind that had a beating heart and feelings. Christina of Sweden - Gonna be honest, this one was a recommendation to me, and her wiki page is remarkably dense. I can't help you on this one. Gilles De Ries - Non-Caster Class only at the moment. Something seems to be stopping you from summoning him as a Caster. (Canon) Charles Babbage - Wanna pilot a robot? Do it. (Canon) Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - Play me a song Mr. Piano Man. (Canon)
@Heavy Snark I plan to set up an Out of Character soon. I can take sheets here, but I was planning to leave that until the OOC is up. But, after talking with Cu, you can post a character sheet if you want. I have a few sections I'm adding to character sheets, primarily stuff like fighting style. Usually to cover stuff that might get missed out on in a usual sheet.
@SSW Alright, we already talked about a character you're thinking of making, but just in case, here is your gatcha rolls.
Julie D’Aubigny ‘la Maupin’ - Famous fencer of the more modern era. Known for her great skill in dueling, spent her life running around and causing trouble, keeping very in-depth memoirs of her life, and being an arsonist. The flexible sort who can be either a solid saber, or a competent assassin. Jason - Simply the worst. (Canon) Sun Quan - Emperor of the Wu Dynasty of Ancient China. Survived the deaths of his brother and father, and was one of the last great heroes of the era. He had little success, but he ruled over what was probably the most stable of the three kingdoms by forging temporary alliances with the other warring kingdoms. Is he a success? A failure? Only he knows how he really thinks on the matter. Edgar Allen Poe - The father of gothic horror. A great author, but one who suffers from a famous case of character assassination. Rewritten as an evil man, he is perhaps the most famous author in the world. Though Hans and Shakespeare maybe disagree. But at least they never wrote about that damn orangutan. John Dee - Book Keeper, Spymaster, mystic? The life of John Dee is quite spectacular, and despite his library being long gone, he once possessed some of the most powerful mystical texts in the world.
Abraham Lincoln - American President who qualifies as both a Saber, and a Berserker. Known for freeing the slaves, and for being really tall. The anecdote about the sword involves a duel that he won simply by arming himself with a sword as tall as he was. And he was very tall. Astolfo - Pink Hair and Horror. (Canon) John Dee - Book Keeper, Spymaster, mystic? The life of John Dee is quite spectacular, and despite his library being long gone, he once possessed some of the most powerful mystical texts in the world. Sun Ce - Older Brother of Wu Emperor Sun Quan. He is known as 'The Little Conqueror' and many believed he was a reincarnation of the famous warlord Xiang Yu. Considering Xiang Yu is a robot in this universe, it's not hard to justify some rather interesting modifications. Carmilla - Sexy Vampire Lady. (Canon)
Arsene Lupin - A gentleman thief! A master of the criminal arts who outwitted th- Oh just go and get the Joker Faceclaim like you know you want to. You hack! John Dee - Book Keeper, Spymaster, mystic? The life of John Dee is quite spectacular, and despite his library being long gone, he once possessed some of the most powerful mystical texts in the world. Maxwell - Der Freischütz (The Freeshooter) - This is the guy Moriarty ended up fused with. Every seventh bullet goes where the devil wants it to go. Oops. Chen Gong - Good if you've got Berserkers. (Canon) Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden - Called "The Golden King" and "The Lion of the North", he made Sweden one of the great powers of Europe, in part by reforming the administrative structure. His domestic reforms turned a hopeless land into a victorious nation with few rivals in his time.
@Yankee Alright, you're the last gatcha for the day.
Meleager - The guy who REALLY killed the Calydonian Boar. He was blessed with a piece of wood as a child that was considered his lifeline. If the wood ever burned, then he would die. Until then, he was a great hero. (The piece of wood will probably be the hardest thing to make even remotely balanced.) Rama the First - The first king of Siam's current dynasty. He possessed a weapon called 'The sword of Victory.' When it first entered his kingdom, seven bolts of lightning crashed down upon the castle, and the sword is considered one of the prized possessions of the king's family. Astolfo - Pink Hair and Horror. (Canon) Fierabras - A giant that fought Olivier and the Twelve Peers. He wielded three swords, one of which was stolen by Olivier. He was eventually made into a Spanish king. Crazy Horse - A native American chief, perhaps as famous as Geronimo. He managed to fight off the white settlers for a while, and is most famous for the lightning scar on his chest.
@Duoya Welcome aboard Douya. As a head's up, masters can be fairly powerful, since I don't want them to just sit at base and eat all the crisps. So feel free to throw in some decent power if you want it.
@Red Alice Unfortunately there is no justification for that man's fabulous hair, and as such I will need to deny him completely.
"With the passing of the Age of Gods and the start of the Common Era, Mankind has become the most prosperous species in the world. The fate of the planet is in our hands. We are the ones who will write its epitaph. Thankfully, there is a map to prolong mankind's survival and ensure its everlasting prosperity. In the world of magi, this is known as... the Human Order." ______________________________________________________________________
Welcome to Chaldea. You are the best of the best. At least that what we’re telling you. But we’re just thankful you’re here at all. Chaldea exist as an observation facility primarily. But since the founding of our organization we have found the odd moment in human history that is a blemish. A point that exists to mangle our timeline, and send humanity off its course. These are better known as Singularities.
To combat each Singularity, a team of two mages are gathered, and then sent into the field. Summoning Heroic spirits in the process. Chances are you have had time to talk with your servant from a prior summoning, or perhaps the servant summoned in done on the field. It’s your choice.
Consider this your mission briefing in that regard. The facility has been in need of fresh blood for a while. You’re it.
Your first point is a small singularity in Fuyuki. Something about things going off path. Anyway, small squabbles like this happen all the time. Show up, find who or what went wrong, and set it right. Time will set itself right when that’s done.
Are you ready? Don’t respond, we’re sending you there now.
This Roleplay is based off the game Fate/Grand Order. You do not need to play the game to follow the story, as this RP uses the concept as a jumping off point, rather than a bible.
Rules 1 - Don’t Godmod 2 - Be a decent person. If you have a problem with another player, you are invited to tell a GM. We’ll do what we can. 3 - There will be only two Master slots. But six Servant slots. Each Master can provide mana for three servants at a time. (It is heavily recommended that the RP max out at six players, two players playing both a master, and a servant so they can participate in heated battles.) 4 - If a servant dies, the player is allowed to perform a re-roll. If a Master dies (Which is less likely) they are not allowed to re-roll until the end of a Singularity. If a Master quits, another player is allowed to take over the character, and replace them when the Singularity ends.
Servant Gatcha: While likely unnecessary, the mods have elected to include a Gatcha system. We have made up a list of Servants/Classes, and if interested you can ask to roll the Gatcha. Five options are generated from a list, including a little blurb on each. (You can decide to do something else entirely if you like none of the options.) It’s for those who have an interest in random chance, or want to try something different.
Servants and Master Applications
I haven't made any applications yet.
Servants should be roughly in the D-B tier. Strong servants, but not anything that can destroy a city on a leisurely stroll.
A-Tier Knights of the Round Table (With some exceptions), The Twelve Peers (With some exceptions)
B-Tier Diarmuid, Medusa (Rider/Lancer), Hector, Robin Hood, Saint George, Astolfo (Though C rank under certain circumstances)
C-Tier Caligula, Billy the Kid, Blackbeard, Hundred-Faces Hassan
@Duoya Sure. Actually, if Slaine is teaming up with Domitian, I think it'd be interesting if he thought Slaine was blessed by Flora or something of that nature. I think that'd be an interesting association for them both.
Are all servants being summoned earlier, or just a select few? Because Berserker would be... Well he's a Berserker. You don't want them around that long.
