Prototype Material Character Profiles

[Nortan the Bunny]

Nice to see Rider's profile now up. Though, I'm a bit confused on what they mean on the lack of follow-through on important stuff. For some reason, I'm thinking if you have to work with him on something, don't expect him to get his part done. (Though, that just may be my student mind talking...)

Always wondered if others would be able to tell if he is a foreigner or not. I guess the only way we would know is if they ever decide to do something with Prototype.

[Laith]

You should see her design.

*Looks at avatar.*
*Looks back at Lianru*

Sorry, I have avatars turned off. XD

(it's so people don't creep up on me when I'm foruming)

My moonrune skills are weak, I must learn more. It's even worse that what I put was exactly the opposite of the real meaning lol
Fixed. And thanks for putting up with my crappy translations, everyone XD

[Lianru]

Okaaay, one more before I go to sleep.


Sancraid Phahn
【Status】
Addresses self as: “Watashi”
Master rank: Unknown
Magecraft: Holy Church–8th Sacrament
Magic Circuit/Quality: C
Magic Circuit/Quantity: A
Magic Circuit Composition: Normal (with a little variation)

【Comment from Takeuchi Takashi】
His concept design was supposed to involve a nondescript face……yet somehow he became this sort of character. During the actual production, he became quite popular.

【Explanation】
Berserker’s Master. Uses a pseudonym. A priest dispatched on a mission by the Order of the Templars. Depraved. Has an ordinary face and ordinary appearance, but when seen is hard to forget, and has the looks of a reptile. He does not give off any feelings of being human. Because he had killed so many people, even the Catholic Cardinal could not give him asylum, so he was publicly executed……in reality, he bought himself American citizenship and lives as a Christian priest.

Because he can utilize multiple mobile magic circles simultaneously, he boasts of this supreme defensive power. The rank of Servant Berserker is Rank 2. Originally, Sancraid thought that “After all, it is only the Holy Grail phenomenon that arose on this Far East island nation” and looked upon the Holy Grail War with contempt, but quickly discovered the truth and changed his views. After that, he immediately murdered the person he was expected to assist, Berserker’s Master, and of course obtained the position of Master. Seems to be fond of teasing Ayaka. “I, reaaally like stupid women!”

Dat EX Quality Magic Circuit on Manaka~

Shes right up there with Touko, huh?

I'm going to go ahead and guess that an E rank in quantity means that Manaka's got about 1 or 2 Circuits.

[Five_X]

MISAYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

[Sherrinford]

Among the Servants, only he obtained an ending that wasn’t a “bad end”.

...... ah. Eh. Really?

Although he possesses numerous Noble Phantasms, he is restricted to only being able to use one at a time.

!

A priest dispatched on a mission by the Order of the Templars.

It's always the Order.

/jk.

[Lianru]

Okay, last profile is pretty bad, I was stuck on this one sentence =3= but enjoy~

Reiroukan Misaya
【Status】
Addresses self as: “Watakushi”
Master rank: Rank 2–Cherubim
Thaumaturgy system: Rune magic, black magic, general necromancy
Magic Circuit/Quality: A
Magic Circuit/Quantity: B
Magic Circuit Composition: Abnormal (has a deviation like a mirror image)

【Comment from Takeuchi Takashi】
The original form of Fate/Stay Night’s Tohsaka Rin. Although this time we started over with design, I think the resultant design was faithful to the image that the original author had.

【Explanation】
A flawless and beautiful woman. Extremely proud, showy and cruel. A sadist. Ayaka’s rival and an ojou character, but isn’t of the “ohohoho~” type. The magus family she was born into is several levels higher than the Sajyou family. The two fathers were old acquaintances, but Misaya did not meet Ayaka until after she became a Master. By the way, among the Holy Grail War’s Master ranks, “Princes” and “Thrones” have the same position.
Because of her father’s persistence in wanting to realize the Holy Grail, a curse of “If you become a Master and do not obtain the Holy Grail, you will die” was put on her. That is, after becoming a Master, if she did not achieve victory, she would die. In reality, the one who cursed her was not her father but ■■. Although Misaya’s father struggled to dispel his daughter’s curse, he was murdered by ■■. In the middle of the story, the curse spreads to her entire body, and she dies. After this, she becomes a living corpse on the verge of becoming a fallen angel [demon?].

And then Lancer killed her ;-;

[Sherrinford]

In reality, the one who cursed her was not her father but ■■.

■■, we meet again!

And then Lancer killed her ;-;

Wait, seriously?

Magic Circuit Composition: Abnormal (has a deviation like a mirror image)

What? Going to assume Rin didn't inherit this.

^
I would assume Lianru is being serious, also the bad end thing refers to how most legends are tragedies that lead to the hero's death (even someone like Heracles, the greatest hero of Greece) Perseus is one of the few whose legend ends with him getting the girl.

[aldeayeah]

The ending he's talking about is his original death, I think.

EDIT: ninja'd

[Lianru]

Wait, seriously?

It says it in Lancer's profile.

After Misaya became a fallen angel due to ■■, he used his killing of Misaya as a bargaining point, and became the Servant of Ayaka, who had lost Saber.

[TypeWannabe]

Lancer, better bro than any bro except Arihibro.

[Sherrinford]

Ah, yeah, I forgot about that talking about "summoning a positive hero" (or something like that).

It says it in Lancer's profile.

(Another thing I forgot.)

Sad. ;_;

[Lianru]

Since no one cares about this part, I might as well just use my best interpretation and be done with it lol.

Postscript
Takeuchi Takashi
This work, Fate/Prototype, was brought up during the production of Fate/Stay Night, an incomplete romance novel that Nasu Kinoko wrote during his high school days. It is the original story of Fate. The setup of the youth, Saber, and the girl magus who uses black magic, together as Master and Servant; the enemy Servant who lives with the protagonist’s friend; the double-sealed holy sword……these are charms unique to the original. Because our reluctance to leave behind the key parts of what was discarded from Fate/Stay Night deepened every year, we thought about how to somehow give it shape…
We had the fortune of all kinds of good timing, and we decided to release Prototype as bonus material with CP, but to tell the truth, touching Prototype again after 20 years was extremely interesting after all. The fragmented scenes Nasu told us about that were “developments after this” had much more impact than I could have imagined, and I felt that they combined all of the key factors that we had liked back then.

To all the staff who supervised and worked on this production which was quite high-calorie [lots of content] to be called bonus material, I am deeply thankful.
I must apologize to everyone who was looking forward to a brand-new Fate story. At present, we have no plans to make an anime or game of the complete version of this work. Everything of interest has already been included in this bonus material.
An episode containing both core fragments and chaotic sections. I would be honored if everyone enjoyed watching Fate/Prototype.


Nasu Kinoko

The unbelievable Proto Fate.
Originally, we planned to do something different from TAKE-MOON at the end of CP Season 3, and make a surprise with some original work.
For example, there were movie proposals like Princess Arc VS Saber Lily, or one scene from Tsukihime 2, but in the end it was decided “As a joke, let’s release Proto just like a movie. Pretend it is a movie trailer. Pick the best parts, but make sure to tell the story properly”.
So, we decided to “just once, return to the original” for our 10-year anniversary.

That being the case, after I reread the original work during the script-making, I couldn’t help but be extremely interested. The main idea of this work, Prototype, was in the style of the ‘80s romance, or “A story of revolutionizing the world”.
This story was released in 2004 as “A story of revolutionizing oneself”, keeping the basic rules the same but massively different, Fate/Stay Night being the result. The large differences in purpose for obtaining the Holy Grail represent the changing of trends of the period, interesting.
For me, this is an undiluted existence, an already left-behind storyline of “As long as the young hero looks good, it’s fine”. I guess this is the so-called FPT [Fate/ProtoType].


I wonder what I should work on next...maybe zero material or something

[Mcjon01]

FPT = Fate ProtoType, probably.

[Lianru]

derppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp. XD

[Crown]

like Princess Arc VS Saber Lily

Well shit, that sketch looked like something nice.


Too bad I guess.

[Seika]

I wonder what I should work on next...maybe zero material or something

Zero Material would be neat, actually. I understand there were quite a few bits translated which were lost with old BL?

[Lianru]

I'm not sure, but I just looked at it and it's gigantic - it even has bits on characters like Kotone. But I figured that with the anime, people would be more interested in fanwanking learning about the characters. Maybe I can finish it by the end of Zero S2...

It's interesting that even after Zero material, they released an "animation material" with the BD box, and the character descriptions are different ;_; I might wait a couple weeks and see if that gets translated into Chinese first, then skip over zero material for the newer booklet (which has some interesting stuff on the legends of the heroes, I think).
