The footnotes are because I like footnotes. I mean, yeah, I could have just said "unless the battle or conflict reaches a point where she'll then proceed to stab you in the fucking throat or break your goddamn spine" but that's too Mortal Kombat for me.

    Got slightly bored and been wanting to use Endir as a face-claim for someone. Might as well be for the anti-Roma. I went in a few odd directions for this, but I think I'm happy with it...?

    Class:
    Saber
    Alignment: Lawful Neutral
    True Name: Remus

    Parameters:
    Strength: B
    Endurance: B
    Agility: A
    Mana: B
    Luck: D
    Noble Phantasm: A


    Class Skills:
    Magic Resistance
    Rank: B
    Cancels spells with a chant below three verses. Even if targeted by High-Thaumaturgy and Greater Rituals, it is difficult for them to be affected.


    Riding
    Rank: A
    The ability to ride a mount. All creatures but those of Phantasmal Beast and Divine Beast rank can be used as mounts. This rank is high enough to have aptitude for the Rider Class.


    Personal Skills:
    Natural Body
    Rank: D
    The possession of an almost-perfect body as a living being from birth. More of a shepherd and leader than a muscled warrior like his brother, the owner of this Skill can be temporarily treated as if his STR is Rank-Up. Furthermore, no matter how many calories he ingests, his fundamental design (body type) will not change.


    Crossing Palatine
    Rank: B
    Saber can move and attack while jumping over all kinds of obstacles on the field, including enemies. No matter how difficult the terrain, Saber is capable of leaping movements and unhindered mobility.


    Septem Colles
    Rank: A-
    A skill based on the hills of Roma, where his would-be capital was to be created. Like his brother, Saber can bestow blessings upon those he recognizes as his children - yet in his case, as the progenitor of an unborn nation associated with the malevolent and fearful dead, it is primarily used to summon and control spirits of the deceased, and its efficacy is greatly reduced if attempted to bless the living. While his brother regards all those who live as part of Rome, Saber is left with only the forgotten and the lost.


    Noble Phantasms:
    Redimo Meque Meosque - My Sword Returns to All Things
    Rank: A+
    Type: Anti-Unit
    A corruption of the sword used to end Saber's life after his brother's claim to founding Rome prevailed over his own, taking the uncrowned, mundane weapon and fashioning it into a wraith blade. When Saber and Romulus attempted to decide who had the superior site to found their city, they relied on divination and augury to determine the better choice, deciding that the first to receive an omen would be the victor. While Saber was the one who received an actual omen in the form of six vultures, his brother Romulus then called upon twelve once they returned from their augury. Despite prevailing in their contest, Remus was cheated from his victory by Romulus' late showmanship.

    As a Noble Phantasm, Remus' sword represents his fate to prevail first, yet not find reward for doing so. A deceptive Noble Phantasm that relies on a conceptual curse, empowering Saber's sword by warping the order of events to place his counter-attack first. A technique that may only be used to respond to an attack, Saber is capable of invariably responding first by callously cutting in line as Romulus did to him.

    An almighty counter-attack, the power and weakness of this Noble Phantasm is that it always strikes first - yet it is an otherwise ordinary attack. If Saber is unable to stop the opponent from completing their attack in a single stroke, then the order of events proceed unchanged, with Saber inflicting first blood before taking the full force of the enemy's attack. From the perspective of the enemy, Saber is impossibly skilled, cutting off all of their attempts to attack with divine swordsmanship. Yet through superior endurance or attack power, all of his skill and speed can be undone by pure force.

    Moles Necessrie: My Regret Reaches for All
    Type: Barrier
    Rank: B
    The legend in which Romulus killed his brother Remus, manifested as a deep trench of spite. Rather than the majestic fortress walls manifested by his brother, Saber isolates space by causing the earth to plunge and separate, instantly crafting deep pits and gouges in the earth, allowing him to drop enemies and objects to the ground below. While in this pit, enemy combatants suffer a one rank reduction in strength and agility, as the angry spirits of the dead sap their life force from underfoot. In addition, the number and power of the dead under his command are increased within these trenches.

    Lore:
    Spoiler:
    The twin brother of the founder of Rome, Saber is Remus, one of the two heirs of the princess Silvia and the god Mars, destined to found the city of Rome. Abandoned to die by their uncle Amulius' treachery, the twins were protected by a series of miracles, saved by a she-wolf and rescued by a shepherd and his wife. Raised in secret, Romulus and Remus alike were born leaders and heroes, acting together to avenge their family and found a new city at the site they were rescued.


    When the two disagreed on where to found their new city, they elected to settle the agreement by divine judgment, each selecting the site of what would be Rome and Remuria, and allowing a divine omen to show the superior choice. Remus received the first omen, six vultures, while his brother returned with nothing. Yet it was Romulus who prevailed, subsequently summoning twelve vultures instead, cheating Remus out of his victory despite failing the terms of the contest.

    Angry about the outcome and Romulus' recklessness, he critiqued the walls that were being raised around Palatine Hill, the site of the future Roman republic - they could easily be jumped over, to which his brother responded it wouldn't matter, as its citizens would cut down anyone who tried. When Remus insisted and demonstrated the ease with which he could leap the ramparts, he was cut down and killed on landing - sources disagreeing on whether it was by Romulus himself or a duty-bound follower.

    An equal to the superhuman crimson founder-god, his life nevertheless ended in spite and disgrace, with no land to his name. It is said that the festival of Lemuralia, in which Romans performed ceremonial rights to appease and exorcise wicked spirits, or lemures, was begun by Romulus as an attempt to apologize or soothe the spirit of his beloved brother, who was cheated out of his birthright as the founder of Remuria. While his brother went on to raise the eternally briliant Roman empire, Remus died with a forgotten land and the angry dead as his only namesakes.

    This one might be a bit of a stretch.

    Source:http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.p...st_id=59913793
    Class: Caster

    Alignment: Neutral Good
    Origin: Historical
    Region: Russia

    Parameters
    Strength: E
    Endurance: B
    Agility: E
    Mana: A
    Luck: C
    NP: C

    Height/Weight: 166cm/58kg
    Gender: Female
    Likes: Expensive clothing, yogurt, her people
    Dislikes: Trespassers, Russians
    Talents: Horseback riding as a hobby
    Natural enemy: The heat
    Attribute: Sky, Water
    Traits: Human, Female
    Armament: Fancy robes

    Class Skills:


    Item Construction: (D)
    Item Construction is a Caster-class skill. It is the skill to manufacture magical items
    By putting her own spin on the Scythian practice of using linden scraps for divination, Caster can reinforce certain parts of her Master by a marginal degree by enchanting the same linden scraps and tying them around her Master. At this rank, only two makeshift Mystic Codes can be applied, and their use is limited.

    Territory Creation: (B)
    Territory Creation is a Caster-class skill. It is the skill to build a special terrain that is advantageous to oneself as a magus.
    Creation of a "Workshop" becomes possible. At this rank, creation of a "magic workshop" becomes possible. This workshop generally can be the size of a building, self-sustaining, reduces the cost of all spells cast by the servant by half, increases mana regeneration by 40%, and warns the servant of all intruders within the workshop.​

    Personal Skills:


    Preservation Techniques: (A+)
    A modified form of Medical Techniques, specializing in the posthumous preservation of the body rather than the upkeep of one's health in life. Still, this Skill does not make a comparison by modern standards, instead determining by the standards of the age in which the Servant lived. At higher ranks, this skill doubles back to encompass the medical techniques necessary for preparing a perfect specimen of preservation. An Independent Action-like effect is also ascribed if summoned around ice or snow, lessening the strain she puts on her Master's mana.
    Caster belonged to the Pazyryk culture in life, a separated national tribe that lives at the base of Russia near Kazakhstan and Mongolia, at the base of the Altai mountains. The Pazyryk are famed for their preservation techniques because unlike other cultures who participated in mummifying the dead, the Pazyryk lived in an incredibly harsh, wet, and cold environment--completely unsuited for the practice (as opposed to the Egyptians) as one might think.

    At this rank, Caster can keep her Master free from the effects of even the harshest weather. Anointing her Master's body with the proper set of oils and rituals, Caster's Master will not succumb to frostbite no matter what, can walk across even the hottest coals and survive prolonged exposure to fire without suffering as much as a burn, and live without consequence of sickness or disease. It might even be possible for Caster to preserve her target against effects it might have been impossible to imagine otherwise, such as surviving for long periods underwater without air. However, to achieve these latter more costly and dubious effects, continued application of Caster's techniques will most likely be necessary. This skill carries no defense towards any direct injury or attack.

    Mana Burst (Ice): (A)
    Mana Burst (Ice) is a version of Mana Burst that infuses weapons with Magical Energy that imparts a freezing, icy effect.
    In Caster's case, freezing ice become Magical Energy to dwell in the weapon used. This Skill is usually active and all the weapons that Caster grasps receive this effect.
    As much a curse as it is beneficial at this rank, everything Caster touches is at least partially infused with magical ice energy.
    The "burst" effect is achieved by devoting more mana to her ambient freezing touch, creating such cold as to make permafrost possible.
    Because of Caster's higher Preservation Techniques skill, it's possible that she might fashion multiple mana-filled weapons for others also under the effect of Preservation Techniques to use.

    Shamanism: (B)
    Shamanism is a practice that involves a practitioner reaching altered states of consciousness in order to perceive and interact with a spirit world and channel these transcendental energies into this world.
    Though little is known about Caster aside from what her kurgan tells us, her style of dress and assorted objects buried with her, as well as the lack of a man found with her, tells us that she was a virginal shaman maiden of some import.
    By putting herself in a state of suspended animation, Caster can connect with the Pazyryk pantheon of animal spirits, exchanging information and ideas that might prove useful for herself and her Master.
    Caster is largely helpless when using this Skill unless preparations are made in advance.

    Noble Phantasm

    Heavily Marked Maiden
    A Little Bit Closer To Heaven


    Type: Anti-Unit (Self)/Team
    Rank: B+
    Range: 2-5
    Max Target: 100


    Caster's arms are heavily adorned with sleeves of tattoos, a cultural tradition for everyone in the Pazyryk tribe. Compared to all tattoos found by archeologists around the world, those on the mummies of the Pazyryk people are the most complicated, and the most beautiful. More ancient tattoos have been found, like the Ice Man found in the Alps - but he only had lines, not the perfect and highly artistic images one can see on the bodies of the Pazyryks.


    Tattoos were used as a mean of personal identification - like a passport now, if you like. The Pazyryks also believed the tattoos would be helpful in another life, making it easy for the people of the same family and culture to find each other after death. Pazyryks repeated the same images of animals in other types of art, which is considered to be like a language of animal images, which represented their thoughts.


    The same can be said about the tattoos - it was a language of animal imagery, used to express some thoughts and to define one's position both in society, and in the world. The more tattoos were on the body, the longer it meant the person lived, and the higher was his position. For example the body of one man, which was found earlier in the 20th century, had his entire body covered with tattoos. Caster has only her two arms tattooed. So they signified both age and status. The tattoos on the left shoulder of the Caster show a fantastical mythological animal: a deer with a griffon's beak and a Capricorn's antlers. The antlers are decorated with the heads of griffons. And the same griffon's head is shown on the back of the animal. The mouth of a spotted panther with a long tail is seen at the legs of a sheep. She also has a deer's head on her wrist, with big antlers. There is a drawing on the animal's body on a thumb on her left hand.


    The Pazyryk also believed that the steppe in which they lived was a sort of [second heaven], a place alienated from the rest of humanity but not quite in the spirit realm; a place where the boundary between the real and phantasmal was thin and prone to stretching. Thus, as a Servant, Caster's relation to the steppe and what it meant is closer than ever. By becoming the spiritual foundation for the racial memory of her phantasmal homeland, Caster is able to channel the same [second heaven] through her body, displayed through her tattoos. By choosing a specific tattoo to focus her energies on, Caster can achieve a variety of different effects.


    Deer (Anti-Unit Self, C)
    When activated, raises her Agility for up to 30 turns.


    Crane (Anti-Unit Self, C)
    When activated, ascribes a temporary E ranked Clairvoyance skill: giving her sharp sight for 30 turns.


    Griffin (Anti-Army, A)
    The most important animal to the Pazyryk. The griffin is perceived not only as a “heavenly bird clawing a horse,” but also as a heavenly horse-bird. in the expression that goes back to antiquity “to interbreed a griffon-vulture with a horse,” which literally means “a vague relation between griffon-vultures and horses". An ungulate torturer, The mythical griffin is the most popular figure in Pazyryk art, suggesting that the Pazyryk people may be identified with the “griffins guarding gold,” mentioned by Aristeas and Herodotus.


    While it's true that the Monstrous Beast is superior to Astolfo's Hippogriff, Caster's griffin doesn't have its [impossible nature] that it can take advantage of. Still, the griffin tattoo is Caster's most powerful, and not to be underestimated. Bringing the griffin forth from the [second heaven]--the only environment it can factually exist--Caster unleashes the specter of the griffin in a single lightning charge. Incredibly cost heavy.


    Argali (Anti-Unit Self, C)
    A species of mountain goat found around the Altai mountains. When activated, raises her Endurance for 30 turns.


    Winged Snow Leopard (Anti-Unit Self, B)
    When activated, Caster's movements become absolutely muffled. She is more easily able to camouflage even in environments she's unfamiliar with, and she can also glide for short distances.



    Lore

    Caster is the Siberian Ice Maiden, otherwise known as the Ice Princess, or a myriad other names.
    Though not normally qualified to be summoned as a Servant, the Maiden achieved global fame recently due to her excavation and subsequent return to the Altai region. She's singlehandedly responsible for making the Nation of Altai a household name.


    Personality

    A bubbly sort, Caster is friendly to most everyone. If she has one fault, it's that she takes the richness of her Master for granted. Valley girl levels of incomprehension aside, she's eager to please and helpful to Masters who respects her culture and religion.


    Tactics

    Let her buff you to kingdom come and wreck shit yourself. Last ditch birblion beamu/

    I didn't make him a Saber because I didn't wanted to make third Saber in a row. And how do you think it can be improved ? Because just vaguely declaring "it can be improved" doesn't really help me. And is it really that bad ?

    Ok, I removed dakini from the skill description. I didn't remove the skill outright because Mephistopheles has it, and I'm pretty sure he's not indian.

    We were only giving crap about the dakini. Mepho's profile does say that he uses western-style jujutsu.

    Now if only we could actually agree on what jujutsu should be rendered as.

    Nah, it's really not that bad. Maybe adding a little more reasoning as to why he deserves those skills and at those ranks. I know Kalevela Servants are popular around here but I haven't gotten around to looking too in depth into it just yet.
    It's mainly that Casters with physical stats but nothing to detract from them might as well be magi proper or something. Even though he probably deserves it. I'm probably just being picky, keep it up.

    Well, keep in mind that it represent his parameters after the bonuses given by his skills. And he was described as absurdly strong and resistant in his legend. From the start, I tought of him as really powerful servant whose main drawback would be that he would bring misery in the master's life. But I added more decription to his skills, like you said.

    @Remus: Why doesn't he have Divinity ? He's the son of Mars and the only reason his brother doesn't have it is because it's sealed by his Imperial Privilege. Otherwise, it's a nice sheet for someone without much feats of his own.
    @Ice Maiden: Nice sheet. I especially like how you used several part of Pazyryk culture in making her abilities.

    Isn't Double Summon limited to Classes other then the three Knight ones? So right away I'm not sure if that works. Also, what is the 'penalty' for having it? Her NP is also kind of generic but I get that you might not've had all that much to work with here. It'd come off as more interesting if you added some kind of imagery to compliment the buffs.

    Hmm, I forgot about that! Nice catch, eheh. I'll have to add it, though I wonder if it feels too bloated with 4 PS...

    And yeah, it was a challenge, when he's famous for so little. But if Nasu can get Pillar Man Superhero out of it, I can get Masked Revenger.

    Dunno and don't care.

    I removed it but the penalty is one of the other class skills is lowered in rank. In this case it's Independent Action.

    Might add a Second Noble Phantasm when I think of more shit to make up,

    Region: Finland

    Parameters
    Strength: C
    Endurance: D
    Agility: B
    Mana: C
    Luck: D
    NP: B

    Height/Weight: 167m/54kg

    Class Skills:


    Magic Resistance: (B)
    The ability to resist magic. At this rank, spell below three verses cancelled. It is difficult even for High-Taumathurgy to affect the servant.
    Archer lived in the Age of Gods and was familliar with magic.

    Independant Action: (B)
    The ability to remain in this world without gaining mana from a master. At this rank, the servant may stay two day in the world without a master. It is the ideal time gained by economising energy.
    As a wandering minstrel, Archer is used to survive alone in the wilderness.

    Presence Concealment: (A+)
    The ability to hide one's presence as a Servant. At this rank, it is possible to disappear completely and become almost impossible to detect. However, the effect will decrease once the servant attack.
    While hiding for a ambush, Archer was unnoticeable even to a god.

    Personal Skills:


    Alluring Nightingale: (C)
    Mesmerizing ability possessed by those with a naturally beautiful voice. It works as a magical fascination effect toward women, but it can resisted by Magic Resistance or simply having a strong will.
    Archer was a talented minstrel greatly proud of his skill. Even so, his talent was nothing compared to his demi-god archenemy.

    God Slayer: (D)
    Ability given to those who were famous for defeating gods in their legend. The servant's attack gain a slight bonus against Divine Spirits, Wraith and Servants with Divinity.
    While he didn't kill him, Archer nonetheless managed to snipe his goldy enemy and make him fall into the water of Pohjola.


    Evaporation of Sanity: (C)
    Dissapiration of reason, making it really difficult to keep secrets. The servant may brag about their own weaknesses and true name, forget important things, etc. In exchange, they benefit from Instinct at the same rank.
    Archer was an arrogant fool who recklessly challenged someone far more powerful than him and was almost killed for it.


    Double Summon: (A)
    A rare skill that allow the user to possess Skills exclusive to two different classes. Its rank is more dependant on the quality of the summoning than that of the servant. At this rank, even members of the knight classes can possesses it.
    Since his greatest feat of archery was done while hiding from his target, Archer's master has used a unconventional summoning process so he could use his full potential.

    One of Archer's familly keepsake, it is a extraordinaly light crossbow that may even be used by a young child. It was one of the potential prices that he promised to Väinämöinen in exchange for sparing his life. The god refused, saying that he got hundreds of such weapons.


    Accordingly, the lightness of this crossbow is obvious, allowing it to be wielded far more graciously than other of its kind. Furthermore, it's lightness has been extended to its bolts made out of magical energy, making them extraordinarily fast. Only those with a agility of B and above and possessing a skill like Instinct may be able to accurately perceive and avoid them. While these bolt don't do much damage individually, a large enough number of them may eventually prove deadly for the opposing servant.


    Raskaus Isä
    Only strength can bend it


    Type: Anti-Unit
    Rank: C
    Range: 4-60
    Max Target: 1


    The sister weapon of Keyves Ati. In contrast to it, it is a absurdly heavy weapon that normal humans have no chance of succesfully carrying. .

    In contrast to its sister's light and quick bolt, the magical projectiles launched by this crossbow, while relatively slow, carry the force of a B-rank Noble Phantasm. However, to use it, Archer need to "charge" it for a few minutes, wich gives the enemy plenty enough time to avoid it if they see him while he is preparing it. It's best used while using Presence Concealment.

    The Wicked Crossbow

    Type: Anti-Unit
    Rank: B
    Range: 4-100
    Max Target: 1


    Archer's ultimate Noble Phantasm and also the only one he built himself. It is a steel crossbow with a multi-colored bow trimmed with silver and gold and a copper top-piece. Its sinew are made from the hair of a Phantasmal Beast. It is decorate with a painted courser on the back, a colt on each end, a beautiful maiden near the curve and a hare near the notch. It was coated in a powerful poison that was intended to kill Archer's hated foe, Väinämöinen. However, during his ambush on the god, he missed and instead touched the Divine Beast, forcing the fall of the divinity into the dark waters of Pojhola.


    It is a Cursed Weapon that indeed carries a virulent poison trough the bolts it launches. However, it is not a poison that kill. Normal targets will see their physicals parameters rank-down by one if they are touched by them, making them more vulnerable against Archer's other weapons. Furthermore, the poison, the hair of a Phantasmal Beast and it's anecdote of killing a Divine Beast has transformed the weapon into a veritable [Beast Killer]. All members of the Phantasmal Beast and the Divine Beast kind will see their body dissolve immediatly upon being struck by one of its bolts, no matter what their normal resistance is. Only Dragons are capable of resisting this effect, and they will still see all of their parameters rank-down by two. If the destroyed beast is part of the Noble Phantasm of another servant, then they will be unable to be summoned for at least a day. Thus, it may be said that it is the perfect weapon against members of the Rider class.


    However, to use this Noble Phantasm, Archer need to charge it even longer than Raskaus Isä, so he is only capable of utilising it properly when hidden.


    If he was summoned as a Rider, he would be capable of summoning twin Phantasmal Horses and two magical boats as his Noble Phantasm.




    Lore

    Archer is Joukahainen, a finnish minstrel who was in life, disproportionally proud of his talent. One day, he heard about Väinämöinen, known as the First Man, who was said to have no equal in singing. Angered by this claim, he foolishly went to defy him in a context of singing. But when it was the old sage's turn to sing, his song provoked great desolation in the surrounding area and almost buried the foolish youngster. The latter plaided for his life, promising mounts of wonders and riches to the former, wich were all refused. Finally, he promised out of the desperation the hand of his sister Aino to the old man. That offer was accepted. When he returned to his familly home to tell them what he has promised, she didn't react well at all. She killed herself by jumping into a violent river. Joukahainen was mortified. He held Väinämöinen, as the sole responsable, ignoring the fact that the minstrel was the one who challenged the sage and that it was he that promised his sister's hand. Despite his mother's warning, he set to make a poisoned crossbow and wait for Väinämöinen to ambush. Indeed, the First Man came to see the body of his "fiancee". The would-be murdered then shot at him, accidentaly killed his mount and made him fall into the waters. The ambusher was pleased: nobody ever survived a fall into these waters. While his mother berated him for his sinful act, he was elated. He was finally victorious.
    Of course, his mortal enemy did not die in these dark waters. But that is another tale, as the arrogant minstrel's role in his life has already ended.





    Personality

    Archer is a unabashed braggart. He is overly proud of his oratory skills, saying that he is greater than the likes of even legendary singers such as Orpheus. While he has a naturally beautiful voice and his melodies carry nice tune to them, his lyrics are horribly vapid and innane, far inferior to the soulful soungs created by true masters. Ultimately, Archer is a fool: his most profound toughts on the universe are mostly things like "fire is hot", he tends to act really impulsively and give away details about his abilities to his opponents by bragging about them. He is also unable to carry responsability, constantly blaming others for his failure and calling those who triumph against him "dirty cheaters".





    Tactics

    Archer combines the strengths and special abilities of the Archer and Assassin class. As such, it is best to make use of it by using him as a sniper. By remaining hidden at one spot, he is able to shoot his opponents without them ever seeing him, his skill as a Archer making him able to be away from his master without much complications. However, he can still protect himself if forced into direct combat, trough master supervision is more needed in these cases as he tend to give away importants details in these kind of situation.

    I removed it but the penalty is one of the other class skills is lowered in rank. In this case it's Independent Action.





    .
    It is. The skill for the Knight Classes is Distortion, which does have the class skill penalty. Add the penalty back in.

    distortion happens when you are forcibly made to change class because of an outside agent but that transformation isn't complete. Therefore have remnants of both classes.
    double summon is when you are summoned in both classes. This only works for the 4 non-knight classes and gunner.

    To summerize, the difference is that distortion is a gray area between the two classes while double summon means you are in both.

    also no need to be so snippy.

    Distortion is a skill Alcides has due to being subjected to Grail mud + being forced to remember the episode where he slaughtered his children, iirc.

    It's not a skill that Servants normally have, I think.

    Edit: nvm lol
