Just so I don't open that door, I'll have to ask that you remove his comrades. Everything else is fine.

There's a reason that Lords of the Clock Tower commit incest, you know. Magic Circuits are a mutation that aren't supposed to be there, so you need to use selective breeding to keep and strengthen them.
Nope. Just says "nine".
...you're, uh, you're talking about the guy who's mastered runes from the Age of Gods and was trained by a godslayer, and the girl whose family has runes from the Age of Gods in their bloodline, passed down through a magical blood virus, which lets her block High Thaumaturgy and even defensively fight Servants when coupled with another part of said blood virus.
No Master in this roleplay should be at their level, that's just absurd. If any Master was at their level I would ban them for the sake of balancing.
I'd allow the combination of meanings if he was some sort of prodigy that surpassed a master in skill, but that's not the feeling I get from your profile; feel free to edit it accordingly though. There's not a balancing problem with combining meanings, it's just not something one can do without being prodigy-tier. That stuff's all based in understanding the runic meaning, see the KnK stuff about Ansuz and whatnot for that.
The kicker is that as Caster, someone with Rank A in Age of Gods Runes is incapable of combining meanings. Caster Cu can't combine runes, so you have to understand why I'm hesitant to give that to a Master so quickly.

they just say that the number of generations in a Magus family don't equal power

Waver always believed this fact to be incomparably honorable, being very proud of his talent. I am the most capable student of the Clock Tower since its founding. Anyone would have to respect me. At least Waver himself thought this way. In truth, the magus lineage of the Velvets had only existed for three generations.
As time goes on, the number of Magic Circuits and concentration of Crests constantly increase and expand. Many students that receive scholarships to the Clock Tower are offspring of families with more than six generations of pure magi blood.
The wonders of magecraft could not be completed within one generation; therefore, the results of a whole life of research by parents are passed on to their children... only through this could their magecraft become more refined. The stronger prana of the old magi families is stronger precisely for this reason. Compared to the offspring of well-established magi family, Waver's Crest concentration and Magic Circuit quantity paled by comparison.
Furthermore, because a magi's Magic Circuit count is determined at birth, there are some ancestral magi families that deliberately contrive to increase the amount of Magic Circuits in an offspring, thus distancing themselves from new magi families in this regard. In other words, advantages within the world of magecraft are predetermined even before birth.
OVER nine generations.
Nope. Just says "nine".
His name was Kayneth El-Melloi Archibald. He was the heir of the Archibald family with nine generations of magus lineage, a very popular man that everyone called Lord El-Melloi. Engaged to the daughter of the principal, a lecturer at such a young age (needs to say how old he is), he was the best of the best. He was also the representative of authority that Waver despised.
Neither of them really screamed "Master of the Arcane" to me.

So, magus generations are more than normal ones, given their longevity. The Archibalds' nine generations are regarded as first-rate, for instance. As a rule of thumb, anything above the Archibalds is unreasonable for this.
Combining the meaning of runes means you're a prodigy that surpasses geniuses by far. You can theoretically app that, but expect everyone to know who you are then. If you're just a "master" of runes, you'll be able to access all the meanings of an individual rune, but can't combine meanings. Combining meanings is high-level stuff.

No worries, real life is a thing.
So, if you want more info on how "flow" works in Type-Moon, Kayneth and Meltlilith's profiles have a fair amount of info on that.
Regarding Alchemy, if you're using it for ochem stuff then that's fine, science has surpassed magecraft because science is pretty good nowadays; don't step outside the realms of reason though, I'll just trust you to exercise judgment and not think you can engineer ridiculous impossibilities.
The gun's fine, but there will be some IC dislike from the NPCs if they catch word of you using them, namely the Church Overseer. If you don't care about him though, then no downsides.

My Master will get a revision as soon as I'm back home, or tomorrow morning at most. Just one question, how will we determine which Servant everyone is gonna summon, at random or simply by pointing and calling?
I'm letting people pick their partners, so long as they don't partner with themselves.
@clanjos
How many generations is the family?
Whatever this method of getting around the range problem is, add it to the profile.
No bows from Yggdrasil wood, that's too high-tier. They can be enchanted to go for long distances/ignore outside influences, but it shouldn't be at the level of literal travel for days. If people could do that then brooms would be useless and Arash would be old and busted.
Runes are fine, but since they're runes, I will ask that you provide a runic alphabet. Ergo, pick something like Elder Futhark or whichever he'll use, and give the effect each rune makes. Since he's experienced and runes are his thing, he'll be able to understand the true meaning of the rune.
Let me know if you have any questions or need help with the runes or anything.

Just so everyone knows where we stand currently:
All Servants have been set; @Turboshitter's Berserker was approved in PMs but he hasn't posted it yet.
We have two Masters approved. @KoL and @Turboshitter are working on Masters (@Black Alice is as well), but besides that we need two more.
So, @vFear, @Hantu Kongkek, @Noxx, @Moonman, and @Flamelord, if any of you want to app a Master then feel free. Newcomers are also welcome to do so!
I haven't heard from @Scrapula or @Hinsek since they posted their first apps, so if either of you will be joining then do let me know~

He doesn't have any guns though, just training with them. A GAZ is a type of car.
Besides, if anyone is going to have training with firearms, I'd say it's the unhinged Russian kill-golem.
Also I was under the impression one couldn't cast magic without a crest but if not then alright.
Whoops, I read GAU because I'm blind sometimes.
Crests aren't Circuits. Or rather, all Crests are Circuits but not all Circuits are Crests. Refer to this:
Magic Circuit
Magic Circuits are the pseudo-nerves that a magus has inside himself. These are paths that generate magic energy and access the magic foundation engraved in the world. Magi make magic energy with the magic circuits and use the magic energy to run the magic foundation and thus put magecraft into effect. To do either of these, the magic circuits are necessary.
Magic Crest
The product of stamping the anchored mystery that a magus had spent his entire life building up. Can be said to be mystical inheritance that defines the magus line as a magus line. While the inheritor is young, it is necessary to implant this little at a time while at the same time having the body adjust to the magic crest by medicine and rituals. The magic association also has technology for extracting just the magic crest from the body and storing it.
This isn't relevant yet, but will this start after the Servants are summoned, or does that get RPed out?
Your first Master-post should be the summoning of the Servant.
I mean, you could always walk around in Fuyuki for a few posts without summoning your Servant, but that's basically screaming "hey someone who's summoned their Servant please come kill me".
