Name: Diomedes
Title(s): Clandestine King of Combat, Once Favored Champion of Athena
Class: Assassin
Gender: Male
Attribute: Sky
Era: Age of Gods
Alignment: Lawful Evil
Personality: A pragmatic hero who follows his Master's orders without question, a humble warrior who puts his faith in his masters and in fate itself. As an Assassin, he still displays the skills and prowess of a hero from the Age of Gods. Dedicates himself to his Master and their cause, and does not even allow emotion to get in the way of accomplishing his goals. To his Master who summoned him as an Assassin, Diomedes will serve as a cold tactician, operating with ruthless efficiency to accomplish their goals and sacrificing even his own ideals in order to achieve victory. Despite his humility, Diomedes still sports a sharp tongue, and won't refrain from calling out plans or actions that are stupid. Not even his Master, of whom he is secondary to, is safe from the biting words of King of Combat.
Bio: Hero of the Trojan War and among the mightiest and most skilled of the Achaeans, only second to Achilles in fighting prowess. Favored champion of the immortal Athena, earning her protection and help throughout the war and beyond. A warrior whose bravery is so great, he attacked and wounded Olympian gods. However, he is summoned as an Assassin due to his participation in covert operations alongside the cunning Odysseus, most notably his role in the theft of the Palladium. Despite this, his courage and prowess has not once diminished even as an Assassin.

AClass Skills:
Presence Concealment: B+
The capacity to hide one's presence as a Servant. Suitable for spying. It is possible to disappear and become extremely difficult to be detected. The rank of Presence Concealment drops considerably when preparing to attack. For Diomedes, the attack condition does not apply when sabotaging an opponent's defenses.
Personal Skills:
Divinity:
CThe measure of one's aptitude as a Divine Spirit. The favored warrior of Athena, Diomedes was even granted a place at her side as an immortal after his death. Diomedes sports high Divine Spirit aptitudes. However, rank has decreased due to the act of stealing the Palladium, which is one of his Noble Phantasms when summoned as an Assassin.
Protection of the Goddess of Wisdom:
C+Divine providence granted by the Goddess of Wisdom, Athena. Insight which allows Diomedes to find the most optimal course for accomplishing a goal. However, its effectiveness has diminished slightly due to Athena's waning favor. Normally this skill would also grant Diomedes with an increase in physical parameters, but due to the possession of
Palládio Athiná, he only receives momentary tactical advice whenever the goddess would deem it appropriate.
Determination of Steel (Fate):
AComposite skill combining the effects of
Bravery and
Calm and Collected. Hardens the user's mind to accomplish a task, granting a resistance to mental interference and even the user's own emotions. A courageous heart and a mind of steel tempered further by his confidence in the providence of the gods, Diomedes did not once allow his own emotions to dictate his actions if they would also prove detrimental to his ultimate goals. He allowed the sly Odysseus to live despite an attempt on his life due to the scoundrel's importance in ensuring victory to the Achaeans.
Iroikí Aristeía:
BThe virtues of a mighty warrior whose heroic deeds shine beyond their observable legend. Displays the combat ability of a Knight-class Servant despite being summoned as an Assassin, providing bonuses to close-combat prowess in regards to the user's skills with the sword and spear. Diomedes possesses the capabilities of a seasoned warrior that cannot be diminished, and even class restrictions become something meaningless. Diomedes was one of the only Achaean generals to participate in clandestine missions of the Trojan War not only for his resourcefulness and duplicity, but also for his courage and skill at arms.
Noble Phantasms:
Name: Palládio Athiná
Title: Sagacious Idol of Sacred Protection
Rank: D (A+)
NP Type: Barrier
Range: 0
Maximum Number of Targets: 1 person
Description: The
limited-edition signed Nendoroid wooden statuette of the Greek Goddess of Wisdom, Athena, formerly held within the kingdom of Troy. It is said that so long as the Palladium remained within Troy, its walls shall not fall. After learning of this prophecy, both Diomedes and Odysseus were sent to steal the Palladium and bring it outside of Troy. Diomedes had successfully stolen the idol, and kept it in his possession until well after the war when he returned it to Aeneas many years later. The Trojan Palladium serves as a prototype for other objects or icons of religious antiquity that grants protection to cities, nations, or militaries.
A barrier-type Noble Phantasm that is supposed to grant its user a form of "invulnerability". However, in Diomedes' hands, it seems to only grant a Rank-Up to Luck as well as an increase in his own force of providence. Furthermore, because of Diomedes' possession of an artifact that was not meant for him, Athena's favor wanes as long as he is in possession of it. This Noble Phantasm can be gifted to others (and will grant a similar effect to its new owner), but Diomedes keeps it in his possession because he doesn't believe it would be right to just hand off a religious icon belonging to his goddess (and giving it to the wrong person will upset her further.) However, when given to a true Trojan hero, its true protective capabilities can be displayed, granting the same concept of invulnerability to the holder; so long as the
Palládio Athiná stays within the possession of a true child of Troy, then their survival is ensured, granting the wielder a "certainty to live".
If the
Palládio Athiná were to find its way back within the walls of Troy, then this protection may be able to expand to an entire nation...
Name: Palládio Antistrofí
Title: Devious Theft of the Divine Sanctuary
Rank: C++
NP Type: Anti-Unit
Range: 1~2
Maximum Number of Targets: 1
Description: The crystallization of the act of stealing the Palladium, as well as the various acts that Diomedes performed in order to sabotage the many defenses in place that prevented Troy from being overtaken by the Achaeans. A melee attack that disrupts an opponent's defensive ability by means of a "Diomedian switch", deactivating their protection and inflicting damage vulnerability proportionate to the rank of the defense lost. A devastating ability that can turn the tides of battle, it also has its limits. Firstly, Diomedes must know of the specific protection that he wishes to sabotage beforehand, and upon invocation of this Noble Phantasm, he can only disable that one particular defensive ability. Diomedes also must perform this ability stealthily, as his opponent must be unaware of his presence prior to the activation of this Noble Phantasm.
