Create-A-Servant 2

[Bird of Hermes]

Cú Chulainn was also physically stronger than Aife (after tricking her, he wrestled her into submission).
Perhaps you could stat her as more of a direct counterpart to Scáthach? For instance, perhaps, instead of knowing magic, she could have a much stronger resistance to magic than normal for her Class?

Sounds fair, I'm on it.

Also I ditched Clairvoyance for an original skill, make some more distance between the two. Better?

[4score7years]

Ended up finishing Leibniz before anything else I was working on. So here he is:

Servant Caster: Gottfried Leibniz

FC is fanart of Okabe Rintarou from Steins;Gate. Source

Class: Caster
True Name: Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz
Alias: None
Alignment: Lawful Good
Region: Germany

Strength- E
Endurance- E
Agility- D+
Mana- B
Luck- B
NP- A+

Height/Weight: 5’9/170
Gender: Male
Likes: mathematics, philosophy, inventing
Dislikes: Being mocked for his ideas
Talent: Philosophy, mathematics, optimism
Natural Enemy: Voltaire, Isaac Newton

Class skills:

Territory Creation: (B)
The skill to build a special terrain that is advantageous to oneself as a magus. At this rank, creation of a workshop becomes possible. Leibniz was not incompetent in this particular area, but his skills were generally unremarkable when compared with the rest of his legend.

Item Construction: (C)
A Caster-class skill. It is the skill to manufacture magical items. Leibniz spent a large part of his life developing a early version of the universal calculator, one able to perform all four basic operations. This calculator would make basic computation easier and less-time consuming, thereby multiplying (heh) the ability of a mathematician to do complex mathematics in a shorter period of time. This idea has manifested as an ability to produce devices that make Mages more effective by reducing casting times. He is able to use these devices himself, but they have little use in his own style of Magecraft, and he will thus usually just give them to his Master or other allies.


Personal skills:

Clairvoyance: (B-)
Leibniz possesses an odd version of this skill. He focused mainly on mathematics and philosophy in life, but he also occasionally worked in other fields. During these periods, he was able to anticipate major future advancements in those fields, predicting developments in quantum mechanics, geology, and even computing. As such, he does not possess the enhanced long-ranged aiming skills traditional of this skill, but instead “merely” possesses a limited ability to see the future.

Animal Dialogue: (D)
The ability to communicate with animals that do not speak “a language of words.” Leibniz understood that animals were not truly capable of rational thought, but he did believe that they were capable of feeling and possessed souls. From this conclusion, he gained a limited ability to interact with and influence them. He mainly uses this ability as another way to gather information, but even that use is limited because of his low rank. He is also technically able to use this ability on plants, but there is no practical value to doing so, as they are largely incapable of movement or sight, and they are obviously still not capable of true speech.

Mathematical Genius: (A)
Leibniz was one of the greatest mathematicians of all time. He invented the field of mathematics known as calculus independently but at the same time as Isaac Newton. His gift for numbers allows him to comprehend and conceptualize the world around him. Using this skill, he is able to predict the probabilities of any event and act on his results. This ability when combined with Clairvoyance becomes astonishingly powerful, allowing him to create detailed and complex strategies in both the short and long-term future.

Noble Phantasm(s)

Greatest of all Possible Worlds

Philosophy Made Reality

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

One of Leibniz’s most famous arguments, which he explains in five parts. Firstly, God could theoretically create any universe, and, with his omnipotence, it could be said that he has the idea of all possible universes he could create. Secondly, only one universe can actually exist. Thirdly, God’s actions have reason and meaning. Fourthly, God is an inherently good being. Therefore, finally, this universe must be the greatest possible, as God would not create an imperfect universe if any better universe could possibly exist.

This Noble Phantasm could be considered the crystallization of this idea of the “Greatest Possibility.” When activated, this Noble Phantasm allows Leibniz to visualize all possible immediate actions and choose the action that leads to the greatest outcome. For example, if someone were to attack him while he had this ability activated, he would be able to move in the ideal way that would allow him to dodge. Even if there were an impossibly low-chance for him to dodge, as long as the possibility existed at all, he would be able to execute the dodge perfectly. Offensively, his attacks always hit in the best possible way to deal the most damage, as long as the possibility exists. (If it is literally impossible for his attacks to connect, for some reason, they will not be able to.) The main weakness of this Phantasm is its mana drain. It is difficult for him to maintain it for the duration of a battle without risking his Master’s health. As such, he usually uses it for singular actions, activating it to dodge attacks that would otherwise assuredly kill him and then deactivating it immediately afterwards, or ensuring that his own Phantasmal attack, Monadology, strikes true.

Monadology

Reality of Distorted Perspective

Type: Anti-Unit, Anti-Spirit
Rank: A+
Range: 1-40
Max. Target: 1

This Noble Phantasm originates from Leibniz’s famous ideas of Monadology. Essentially, he believed that ideas of space, time, causality, and even material objects did not exist in the conventional sense, and were merely a way for the mind to make sense of things. The only things that he recognized as real were God and Monads. Even God he thought of as a kind of Monad. To put it simply, a Monad could be considered something of a fusion between an atom and a soul, an immaterial spiritual element more complex and superior to both.

This idea of Monadology has been crystallized into a Noble Phantasm that serves as Leibniz’s strongest (and only) truly offensive technique. Upon invoking this Noble Phantasm’s name, he able to unleash a “prana bullet” of pure magical energy from his finger. This bullet is incredibly powerful, but it will deal very little damage to objects or terrain. It deals weakened damage to plants, animals, and regular humans. The attack challenges the nature of these things, essentially claiming that they exist “on a lower level of reality” and thus does not affect them as much.

This is because the bullet targets what Leibniz sees as the only true reality: spiritual energy. It’s full power is realized when it is used against Spirits or beings of high spirit energy. This makes it an absurdly powerful weapon against Servants, capable of completely annihilating a Spiritual Core entirely on a successful hit. However, such an ability is not without its weaknesses, with the main one being simply the cost to use. Due to the nature of the attack, these bullets expend a tremendous amount of mana to fire, meaning that Leibniz cannot waste a shot, as he will not be able to fire more than a few bullets successively before running low on Mana. Thankfully, with his skills or other Noble Phantasms, he is able to capitalize on this Phantasm through cunning strategy and skillful execution.

Lore

Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz was a prominent German philosopher and mathematician during the late 17th century. He was noted for his invention of the mathematical field known as calculus, independent of yet at the same time as Isaac Newton. He also did a large amount of work towards developing a universal calculator. In philosophy, he had ideas unique for their optimism. He believed that the universe was the greatest possible, for reasons detailed in the Noble Phantasms section of this sheet. He also had a number of notable ideas on the nature of reality, which he used to solve problems such as the Mind-Body Problem and the Problem of Evil. He remains one of the most important thinkers of all time.

Tactics

An odd caster without much offensive Magecraft. Instead, Leibniz is best utilized almost like an Assassin: relying on carefully-crafted and well-executed plans to quickly eliminate his enemies. Most of the time, he won’t win in direct confrontation, but he rarely ends up in such situations anyway because of his planning. Usually, it's simply a matter of preparing and then taking out enemy Servants from a distance with a well aimed Monadology bullet.

Personality

Optimistic almost to a fault, he perpetually has a smile on his face. He truly believes that he lives in the greatest of all possible worlds, and finds happiness merely in existing in such a world. He trusts that everything will work out, and has faith in the genius of God. Because of this, he sees the bright side in everything, and he doesn’t seem bothered when things don’t go his way. Even hearing criticism for his ideas doesn’t really faze him, as he has incredible confidence in them. It would take a truly catastrophic event for his beliefs to be shaken.

He is also incredibly smart. As one of the inventors of calculus, he is arguably one of the most intelligent people of all time. He is capable of complex strategy and makes good use of his Noble Phantasms and futuresense. He is an inherently optimistic person, but that doesn’t make him an inherently stupid person.

He finds the modern world even more amazing than the world he left behind. The simple fact that everyone is able to carry devices capable of advanced computation in their pockets fills him with joy, as do countless other aspects of the world. He will spend most of the Grail War simply researching or experiencing the modern era.

For him, simply having another chance to experience life is enough. He has no particular wish beyond that, except perhaps a vague wish for knowledge.

Comments/Criticisms/Thoughts? Man, concisely explaining philosophy is hard.

[Bird of Hermes]

I like the guy, though I think the first noble phantasm could be ditched and just expand on his Mathematical Genius and Clairvoyance skills. Aside from that he's fairly well rounded with his second NP being something I wouldn't have expected to see from him.

[Alexcoene]

Well, I decided to make my first OP Hindu Servant. Also, my most wanked servant thus far, in my own opinion.

Gender: Male
Likes: Good warriors, Teaching
Dislikes: Friendship falling apart
Attribute: Earth
Traits: Human

Class Skills:


Magic Resistance: (B)
Protection against magical effects. Different from effects that merely rejects Magical Energy, this ability cancels the spells altogether. Cancel 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: (B)
Tthe ability to ride mounts and vehicles. At this rank, most vehicles can be handled with above average skill. However, the likes of Phantasmal Species such as Monstrous Beasts are not ridable.


Personal Skills:

Military Tactics: (B)
Tactical knowledge used not for one-on-one combat situations, but for battles where many are mobilized. Bonus modifiers are provided during use of one's own Anti-Army Noble Phantasm or when dealing against an enemy Anti-Army Noble Phantasm.
After the death of Bishma, Saber became the Chief Commander of the Kuru Army. Highly skilled in tactics, he even created a unique strategy that nobody else managed to reproduce.


Divinity: (A)
The measure of whether one has Divine Spirit aptitude or not. At high levels one is treated as a mixed race of a Divine Spirit, and the level declines when the Heroic Spirit's own rank as a Monster raises. It can also decrease due one's dislike for the gods. It also has an effect which reduces special defenses called "purge defense".
Saber is the incarnation of the god Brahma.


Wisdom of the Weaponry: (A+)
A skill granten to those who became a uncompearable master in all weapons and spread this weapons to others who became great heroes in their own right. With exception of those particular of certain heroes, Skills related to the proper uses of weapons can be displayed with a proficiency level of B~A Rank. Also, only towards those he has recognized as princes, it is also possible to teach such Skills. Furthermore, it grants the benefit of Eternal Arms Mastership at an equal rank.
Saber was taught in the uses of every weapons by the great sage Parasuruma. He thereafter took the Kauravas and the Pandalas under his wing.

Noble Phantasm

Chakravyūha
Trap of the Blooming Lotus

Anti-Unit
Rank: C+
Range: 1-20
Max. Target: 1

A special formation conceived by Saber to trap Yudhishthira, the leader of the Pandava side. It was a unique strategy that has never been successfully reproduced by anyone else, and thus it has been crystallised as one of his Noble Phantasm.

Upon activation, Saber will first materialise before him two ghostly figure vaguely ressembling soldiers. These are not true spirits and only exist to execute the formation. The pair will charge of the opponents, attack them with their spectral weapons and then almost imediatly disengage them. After that, they will circle around the enemy and Saber will produce another pair to repeat the proceading, and then another pair, and so on. They do very little damage and are easily blocked or avoided. Their purpose is to distract the victim so they doesn't notice the growing number of wraiths spinning him around them.

When Saber felt that he had gathered enough specters, he will then command them to transform in the form of a blooming lotus flower that imprison the opponent. The strength of this prison will be determined by the amount of spectral warriors that form it. At higher numbers, it is downright unbreakable. While in the lotus, his enemy will then be vulnerable to further attacks. Note that while the formation is unnoticeable by one that is in the center of it, it is obvious to anyone outside. If an ally of the intended victim is near, they could easily interrupt the use of this Noble Phantasm.


Brahmastra
O Brahma, Cover the Earth

Anti-Army
Rank: A+
Range: 2-60
Max. Target: 300

Saber was taught in the use of this divine weapon by his mentor Parasuruma. It has no physical form of its own as it is more of a special attacks materialized trough any weapons that its owner wield.

By calling upon its True Name, Saber will release a devastating beam from his sword. This beam will attack all who Saber designate as enemies, be they only a couple or an outright army. It cannot be avoided, as it will follow its targets relentlessly, and it can only be blocked by confronting with a Noble Phantasm with a rank at least as high as it.

Furthermore, Saber is one of the rare persons that know the strongest variations of this weapon. By spending more mana, he can use Brahmashirsha Astra: O Brahma, Ruin the Earth. An Anti-Country attack four time stronger than the normal Brahmastra and will ruin the area where it was unleashed in the same matter as a nuclear bomb. As such, he will almost never use it, as he does not desire needless destruction.

Theorically, Saber could also uses Brahmanda Astra: Oh Brahma, Destroy the Earth, a attack so devastating and powerful that it would be counted as separate, Noble Phantasm if he evr used. However, because it has the potential to destroy the whole world, Saber will never use it and hewill be quick to tell his master that if he were to do that, the amount of energy required would instantly kill them both.


Asi
Oh Brahma, Give Me Victory

Anti-Unit(Self)
Rank: EX
Range: N/A
Max. Target: 1

In the beginning of the world, the righteous Daeva were persecuted by the wicked Asura. They looked to Brishma, the creator of the world, for help. In response, he created Asi, the first sword from wich all later blades are descended from, and gave it to Rudra. Upon holding, he was transformed into a truly mighty warrior who defeated all of the Asura. Afterwards, it was passed on amoungst various persons before finally being given to Saber by his mentor. He thereafter used it during the Kurukshetra War.

It is a beautiful Khanda with a entirely blue blade. After calling its true name, it will imbibe Saber with its energy and concept of "sure victory against the enemies of the god", transforming him in a similar manner as it transformed the deity Rudra. He will grow two additional arms, his skin will change into a complex pattern of blue, white and red, he will gain a third eye that shine like the sun and his two other eyes will become black and brown while paradoxically growing almost as brightly as his third. He will continuously sprout flames from his body, efectively giving Mana Burst(Flames) at A-rank and allowing him to reinforce his Brahmasta much like a certain other indian hero.

However, this form's most spectacular quality is the boost given to his speed. He become so fast that it seems that light itself seem slow compared to him. To the opponents, it would seem as if a billion other Saber appeared beside him to attack them as their mind can't register something whose speed is unmesureable. He will become impossible to hit as he will see his opponent's attacks before they finishes, his own attacks will become impossible to avoid or block. To put it simply, he is practically invisible in this state. Its only drawback is that it will quickly drain Saber and his master of Mana and thus can only be used during a short amount of time.

As a side-note, this sword is not Asi's original form. Indeed, upon its creation by the lord Bishma, it first appeared as humanoid being that terrified all of the Daevaes before changing into a sword at the Creator's command. It is still sentient, but doesn't seem to hold much care about the War or the world of mortals in general and thus almost never show sign of it, not even by talking. It is possible that in events of outright cosmic importance, it may chose to manifest itself by taking in humanoid form. Almost nothing is known about his abilities or personality, but is it doubtless that such a being, who terrified divine spirits and provoked natural disasters just by existing, would be only challenging by the strongest entities in the universe.

Lore

The royal preceptor to the Kauravas and the Pandavas. Drona is the son of the sage Bharadwaja, produced not from the womb of a woman, but directly from the elder's semen. While born in poverty, he was childhood friend with the prince of Panchala, Drupada.

As a young man, he learned that the immensely rich Parasurama was giving away his wordly posessions. He then went to see him with hopes to be given something. Unfortunately, the elder had nothing but his weapons left. The wise men then proposed to the young Drova that he teach him in the uses of all of them. The youngster accepted. He then became Parasurama's disciple in the mastership of weaponry for many years before finally becoming a master himself and being granted the title of "acharya".

However, he was still as poor as before. For the sake of sustaining his familly, he visited his old friend Drupada, who in the meantime has suceeded his father as the ruler of Panchala. The new king refused, denying their past friendship as they were now "too inequal to have a friendship". Disgruntled, the weapon master left the kingdom.

He travelled to Hastinapura. There, the king Bhishma asked him to become the teacher of the Pandavas and the Kauravas, wich he accepted. He taught all of his charges, along with his own son Ashwatthama, the art of fighing and the mastership of weapons. Amongst them all, Arjuna was his absolute favorite. One time, he convinced them stole half of the kingdom of his former friend Drupada. This act of vengeance would eventually be the source of his downfall.

At the beginning of the famous Kurukchetra War, Drona didn't approve of the conflict between the Kauravas and the Pandavas, but his loyalty toward the Kaurava king Duryodhana pushed him to fight against half of his beloved disciples. Tough they were enemies, he never lost respect toward the Pandavas and always acted cordially when fighting with them. He even began to think that it wouldn't be that bad to fall in a fight against one of his former students. However, he was not killed in battle, but rather from abject trickery.

It was a plan designed by Dhrishtadyumna, the son of his former childhood friend Drupada, shortly after Drona had killed his father in battle before lamenting the deteration of their frienship. He named a random elephant after Drona's son and killed it. He then spread the rumor that Drona's offspring was killed in combat. Unbelieving, the weapon master asked Yudhishthira, who knew everything and always told the truth, if it was true. The king answered positively. Drona then meditated, intent on finding his son's soul in the spiritual world. However, while he was distracted, he was treacherously killed by Dhrishtadyumna. And thus the mighty warrior Drona died not in a honorable duel, but rather from a sickening and underhanded scheme. It also brought his son to the path of bloody revenge and damnation, but that is another tale entirely.

Personality

Saber is the epithome of the old master. He is always level-headed and greatly appreciate warriors who make great uses of their weapons. He will tend to either compliment or correct his opponents on their fighting skills. That said, his experience in the war has left him surprisingly pragmatic, making liberal uses of his least devastating and/or powerful Noble Phantasm when he think it's necessary. He relishes the tought of fighting someone that match him in the mastership of weaponry.

If there's one thing he hates, it's seeing frienships falling apart. He kept very bad memories from his falling-out with his childhood friend and the bloody fights between his disciples. If he sees friends having tensions between them, he will surely tries to convince them to rethink about their friendship and to not throw it away so easily.

His wish is, like many great warriors, to be able to die in a truly honorable battle. Indeed, he knew that his falling-out with Drupada and the war between his students were inevitable and thus think it would be arrogance to try to negate it. However, he deeply resent his dishonourable death. Thus, his biggest fight would be to be able to fight one last battle against Arjuna, his most precious student, and to thus die in glory. He also hopes that a more prestigious death would save his own son from his grisly fate.

4Score: Man, that Leibnitz sheet above is pretty dang good. Rare you come across many philosopher Heroic Spirits around here, and you did a good job managing to turn Leibnitz' rather esoteric stuff into fitting Noble Phantasms (especially Monadology which even I had trouble wrapping my head around). The FC is also very nice, though it does make me imagine him shouting "I am a mad scientist, sunuvabitch!" which... might not've been exactly what you had in mind personality-wise.

[Bird of Hermes]

Given I haven't heard anything else on Aife now, I'm assuming she's (now) acceptable.

True Name: Drona

I'm surprised you didn't mention the Narayanastra in any way at all, given it's one of the three ultimate weapons in Hindu mythology. Also the sword is a bit similar with the one you gave to Susanoo, I think you would have gotten more out of him by making him an Archer though I do like Chakravyūha though. One final point, regarding Wisdom of Weaponry, why not just give him Eternal Arms Master as a separate skill?

Glad you liked it and thank you for the comments! Philosophical ideas are weird to adapt. They're very abstract and broad, but I like that you can go in a lot of ways with them because of it. I might do another philosopher at some point, but I'll have to pick someone who isn't too similar to Leibniz or else I'd just copy paste the skills over. (I probably won't do Newton for this reason.)

Maybe. I suppose if I actually tried I could differentiate them well-enough; they weren't really that similar outside of mathematics. The tricky part is going to be ensuring that they are roughly equal in power, since they were rivals. It wouldn't do to have Newton absolutely shit-stomp Leibniz or vice-versa. Newton is probably going to end up a bit more powerful because fame, but still. I'll think about it.

Well, the Narayanastra was more his son's thing, and I'm currently toying with the idea of making a sheet for him. To be honest, I mostly make this sheet because I wanted to write this sword as a NP in the first place. I didn't make Eternal Arms Mastera separate skill because I tought it be a bit redundant if he had two seperate skills that represent his mastership in weaponry.

[Adlet]

Sounds fair, I'm on it.

Also I ditched Clairvoyance for an original skill, make some more distance between the two. Better?

Well if you really want to make her stronger, there wasn't much of a reason to ditch Clairvoyance since 4 personal skills should be fine? Unless you don't like giving more than three skills, I guess. The sheet seems fine to me right now, but this is coming from someone who's knowledge in the Ulster Cycle is p minimal so dunno if there's any material you could have used.

True Name: Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz

Nice sheet. You did well to translate his ideology into NPs. I'd likely have a hard time with that lol. Also silly faceclaim pick, but it's kinda fitting since you made him super confident about his philosophies.

Hello. Have another Nazi. Not really sure if he's applicable since he's born exactly on 1900 and I didn't quite get whether the cut off is 100 years prior to the start of 21st century (so 1900) or 100 years prior to start of FSN (so 1904), but I made him anyway. Also, I got lazy with lore section.

Next one is a Soviet or Ally Servant prolly for a change of pace.

Source: (X)
Class: Caster (Alternatively Berserker)
True Name: Heinrich L. Himmler
Alias: Reichsführer-SS
Alignment: Chaotic Evil
Origin: History
Region: Germany



Height/Weight: 173cm/53kg
Gender: Male
Likes: Germany, Adolf Hitler, pride towards one's nationality, control, his family
Dislikes: 'Untermensch', opposition to Adolf Hitler and the Nazi movement, the Holy Church, the Magus Association
Talent: Improving ideas and enforcing them, observing others, putting genocide into motion
Natural Enemy: Joseph Stalin
Attribute: Man
Traits: Human
Armament: Pistols, military knife, torture utensils
Catalyst: Due to very little of Himmler's personal belongings surviving past the World War II period, it might be harder to attain the required catalyst for Himmler's summoning. Regardless, if one truly wishes to summon him for some insane reason then possible catalysts could be the personal uniform he wore which has surfaced in the collecting world to be sold at a high price. Another catalyst could be the rare printed communion certificate Himmler received for his acceptance into the Roman Catholic Church. Perhaps even one of his personally signed official letters could be obtained as a catalyst.

Class skills:

Territory Creation: (B+)
The skill that allows for one to build a terrain advantageous to themselves as a Magus. At this rank, creation of a ''workshop'' becomes possible. As someone who is responsible for building many concentration camps over the Nazi controlled areas and managed them for the sake of using them as his own personal ''workshops'', Himmler is someone who's quite knowledgeable in the creation of a territory advantageous for himself. But in actuality, his true talent does not lay in building a territory that serves to his advantage, but rather he is more adept at building a territory that is disadvantageous to the enemy. When it comes to building a trap riddled territory where the enemy can be cornered and defeated easily, Himmler possesses extra-ordinary skill. Facing him on his own territory can be considered a potentially deadly situation and one that should be avoided.

Item Construction: (B)
A skill that measures one's ability to construct items that are magical in nature. With this rank, it is entirely possible to create items possessing magical energy. In Himmler's case, he specializes with the creation of torture tools and chemicals that serve the purpose of aiding him in his human experiments. Though he has attained the knowledge to create potential healing potions, convincing Himmler to do so would be a hard task unless it was for his own good. He wouldn't consider even saving the life of his own Master if faced with immediate danger. At best, he would keep the Master in a state one step short of death, making them unable to take their own action but remain as a mana battery for Himmler's sake.

Personal skills:

Devil's Advocate: (A)
A personal skill possessed by an individual who had a high zealot-like faith in something during their life and subsequently enforced it onto others by the employment of constant violence, further oppressing the rise of any other form of belief differing from that of his own. Essentially, it is a personal skill granted to Himmler due to his enforcement of the Nazi ideology. As someone who was one of the closest subordinates of Adolf Hitler in life due to his unwavering faith towards the man, Himmler was granted many perks and positions until he became arguably the second most powerful man in the Third Reich second only to Hitler. Using his authority, Himmler quickly enforced the ideology presented by Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party, squashing any differing opinions quickly and quietly.

However, by far one of the most powerful evidence of his status as the advocate of Adolf Hitler was his preparation of the war against Christendom. Believing that the Holy Church is brainwashing the noble Germanic people and is the pioneer of the undesirable and evil subhumans, Himmler desired for the German society to abandon all Christian values and use the history and legend of the Germanic people as the basis of everything. As a man highly obsessed with Germanic history and legend, his wish post-war was to create a - in his mind - noble movement against the Christian ''propaganda'' and squash their grip on the people's minds. It was under this belief that the notorious secret police Schutzstaffel (SS) was formed as Himmler saw that the main task of the SS was to act as a noble vanguard which's purpose is to overcome Christianity and restore a 'Germanic way of living'.

As an ambitious enemy of the Holy Church, Himmler saw that preparations for attacking it's orders post-war would be arranged. In his mind, the Holy Church is a dangerous entity which's principle of mercy and morality is an immediate threat to the planned battle against subhumans. With permission from Hitler, it was under Himmler's instructions that the Holy Church faced potential destruction during the 20th century. In regards to the Holy Grail War, Himmler is granted a heightened battle performance when battling those that use the techniques of the Holy Church or have fought on their side during life. More-so, he possesses excellent skill at shutting down the effectiveness of Holy Sacraments (being able to tap into and alter the very basis of their Thaumaturgical Theory upon activation) and interfering with personal skills such as Saint or Revelation. This skill also includes Zealotry at an equal rank. When fighting in the presence of Adolf Hitler, all stats receive a rank up.

Pioneer of the Atrocities: (EX)
An unique skill given to villainous individuals who became infamous in history for their ability of putting evil ideas into practice and became known for their crimes against humanity. Essentially, all difficult voyages and ideals considered impossible of realizing can be turned into ideas that can effectively be put into practice. In order to have aptitude for this skill, the owner has to meet the requirements of being applicable to both the personal skills Torture Techniques and Sadistic Constitution at a high rank as well as have anecdotes in life where they committed cruel atrocities against human kind. As long as Himmler is working with a plan or an idea that is built on the misfortune of others, he will leave only excellent results. A dangerous skill to be possessed by an ambitious maniac like himself, as it is made possible to take full advantage of enemy weaknesses, creating innovative counter-measures that have the best possible result at harming another individual.

As a skill that represents the destruction of human civilization, when Himmler is faced off against Servants that have the capability to make difficult voyages realized in a way that benefits others, it is made possible for him to dismantle the success of his opposition and return it a state of naught. At this level, it even functions as a form of curse which heavily decreases the morale of enemy troops if they are fighting for a just cause. This skill's effectiveness depends on the size and form of the enemy being fought. Should the enemy have traits of a Monster such as the Three Great Yokai of Japan (Tamamo-no-Mae, Shuten Douji and Emperor Sutoku the Tengu), Himmler's lack of experience in dealing with such enemies will result in the failure of this skill's full effects. On the other hand, if the enemy being fought is a hero who possesses human traits then the effectiveness of Himmler's counter-attacks will only raise - it's highest effect taking when committing atrocities against masses rather than individuals.

It's not known to many, but even though it was Adolf Hitler who desired the destruction of the Jewish race it was not him who made such a notion possible. The one who made such an idea possible and put the sickening ''final answer to the Jewish question'' into motion was Heinrich Himmler - the architect of the Holocaust as well as the organizer of the police force that committed various cruel violations on human rights. Along with Reinhard Heydrich, Himmler oversaw the Holocaust project which served to torture many innocent lives in the guise of ''racial purification''. As the architect of the proclaimed worst genocide in human history, Himmler further sought a violent and bloody war on the existence of any non-Aryan races in which by his own word, millions on both side would have lost their life.

Disposition of a Mass Murderer: (A)
A personal skill granted to mass murderers who are capable at reading other individuals as if they were an open book and subsequently put that knowledge into effective use. In it's basics, it is a skill very similar to Human Observation in it's ability to not only understand others at a glance, but also hypothesize their livelihoods, likes and lifestyles. However, rather than just observing this skill encompasses one's capability to put such talent into practical use by altering their own personality to fit the course of conversation with another individual in such a way that makes one's personality most favourable in dealing with others. Not only that, but it also allows for one to choose the best optimal choice of action similar when fighting single enemies rather than troops in battle.

In it's effects, it is similar to the personal skill Instinct, but it is different because rather than feeling the best course of action, it is knowing and predicting the best course of action by observing one's own opponent and calculating what their next move will be. The knowledge granted by this skill also allows for one to choose the best possible subordinates fit for a task simply by observing them. For Himmler, aside from the named capabilities, this skill has a handful of advantages. For one, because he does not possess the ability to draw others to himself and charm them through oratory skills as well as the strength of his presence like Hitler does, Himmler instead has developed a kind and soothing personality fit for a loved family man through his observation of the livelihoods of other people. In essence, it makes him fail to register as a hostile individual that carries underlying agendas to the eye of an individual inexperienced in dealing with lies and trickery.

The reason Himmler possesses this skill is simple. He is claimed to be a good decision maker who possessed extra-ordinary skill in selecting competent staff based on his observation (such as Reinhard Heydrich) and further apply his secret police the SS into every aspect of daily life - a skill he gained by observing the common folk and constraining their lifestyles into conditions where he would have powerful control over. It is said that even though Himmler was a dull individual who possessed neither the charm Hitler possessed nor the military competency that Heydrich possessed, he was so skilled at organizing all of his power and staff that he became the second most powerful man in the Reich.

Rune Magic (Armanen Futharkh): (A)
A type of Magecraft that originated from Scandinavia during the Age of Gods. They are symbols that realize great mysteries upon their inscription. In the Third Holy Grail War that took place in Fuyuki during the World War II period, there were reports that a Master supported by the Nazi regime had entered the war. That Master was Darnic Prestone Yggdmillennia who, in return of pledging his loyalty to Adolf Hitler, was granted control of an order of Nazi trained Magi. With their help, Darnic managed to fight off both the great three families and the Imperial Japanese army, securing the Holy Grail.

The source of these Magi was a branch organization of Ahnenerbe inside the Third Reich that focused on raising and training soldiers who possessed excellent aptitude for Magic into extra-ordinary Magi soldier which would give Hitler the edge in defeating both the hated British army - which at the time was being funded and supported by the Clocktower in London - and Stalin's Red Army. The one who was tasked with the control of this branch organization and the job to bring up powerful Magi warriors for Hitler was none other than Heinrich Himmler himself - who was claimed to be a powerful Satanist heavily interested in the occult. Himmler's interest in the occult was tied to the racist philosophies of the Nazi regime as he often believed that the Aryan people possessed a history full of great tales of the supernatural which proved their ''racial superiority'' to other races.

In his quest for the occult, Himmler had obtained the knowledge and use of the eightteen Armanen runes created by Guido von List - which he later further established as the symbol of the SS. One of his most powerful runes is the ancient Sowilō rune which originally symbolized the sun, but was later changed to Sig symbolizing ''victory''. It is a rune that, once inscribed, summons a scorching flame that spreads over the target and leaves nothing of their flesh. It is Himmler's favourite rune and due to having practiced often with it by scorching the bodies of the victims (such as Hebrews) that his SS had procured, he has become very proficient in it's usage. It is said that Himmler's proficiency with Magic is high enough to be on the Bride level if measured by the system of Magi rankings found within the Clocktower.

Noble Phantasm(s)

Schutzstaffel

Always Watchful Eyes

Type: Anti-Concealment

Rank: E
Range: 1~99
Max. Target: 100 people

A major paramilitary organization under Adolf Hitler's control during the Third Reich period. Under Himmler's direction, it was reformed and grew from a few hundred members to one of the most powerful organizations of Nazi Germany, with numberous smaller branch organizations. Himmler effectively employed the SS and made sure that it's involvement would find itself in every aspect of daily life. The SS organization is most notorious for sniffing out and massacring up to 6 million of the Jewish people in the Holocaust during their time as an active organization. All of it's members were responsible for both war crimes and crimes against humanity. As a Noble Phantasm, it's purpose is the same as it had been in life.

Upon activation, a wide ranged tracking spell will be casted. Inside of a ~99 space radius, the spell will lock onto any being that has a beating heart beat. Once that is done upon every locked on target a spiritual eye-ball familiar will manifest above them - it's purpose being to monitor the everyday life and actions of every single individual in it's radius, effectively sniffing out any enemy units or ''subhuman'' individuals much like in life. It is a wide range monitoring Noble Phantasm that connects back to Himmler. By closing his right eye and focusing his mana into the left one, Himmler's eye will glow a bright orange colour and he will be able to tap into all of his additional 'eyes' (the SS). An effective Noble Phantasm for finding enemy Master-Servant pairs, monitoring their actions and gathering a wide range of information as well as having thousands of 'eyes' walking around to give him a clear picture of the territory. Furthermore, this skill allows to impose light suggestions to the inexperienced masses, such as influencing them to arrive to a certain location at a given time as if it were just a simple, every day walk in the park.

The eyes themselves are invisible to normal people, but on the other hand, people who are experienced with the supernatural will be able to visualize the eye behind them, monitoring their actions. Though the eye is indestructible when active, it does possess a particular weakness of it's own. To anyone who sees them, the eyes will impose a powerful ''fear'' effect into the target, but anyone who can shake it off will be able to feel the line of connection between the artificial eyes and their Master, Himmler. In short, in exchange for revealing his own location, Himmler is able to pinpoint the location of any of his enemies at any given time. Extremely effective against Assassin class Servants in particular.

Lebensraum - Holocaust

Purification of the Lesser Ones

Type: Anti-Human, Anti-Freedom (Imprisonment)

Rank: C (EX)
Range: 1~10 (Alternatively, up to ~99)
Max. Target: 100 people

By far the most horrible deed committed by Heinrich Himmler. It is the cause of death of about 11 million innocent people. Holocaust - the alleged most horrible genocide of human history and an event that Nazi Germany is infamous for. It is a Noble Phantasm possessed by both Heinrich Himmler and Adolf Hitler. However, while in Hitler's case the aspect of Holocaust that is conceptualized as a Noble Phantasm is the ''deaths of the innocent people that have lost their life in it'' - which has manifested as a Reality Marble that contains millions of wraiths-, in Himmler's case what is conceptualized as a Noble Phantasm is the project itself rather than the deaths of the people.

When it's true name is activated, through the act of marking the enemy, Himmler is able to entrap anyone in a radius of a ~10 space. While staying out of it's range can be an efficient way to counter this Noble Phantasm, should one be caught in it, a powerful mental curse will be imposed onto them. First their physical body will be devoured and stored in a ball of flesh similar to Shinji Matou in the Unlimited Blade Works scenario and then it will fly up into the skies, above the city, in which the most horrible project will commence. The purpose of the curse is simple. Since Holocaust is allegedly the most horrible deed in human history, it's purpose is nothing but the suffering of it's prisoners. The prisoners of Holocaust will be trapped into an artifical Reality Marble-like world in which one's worst regrets and fears will be the building force of their artificial world. It is the projection of one's worst nightmare.

It's prisoners will be forced to a fate of battle with their deepest regret and fear. Should they overcome it, the Reality Marble-like world will be shattered and they will be able to exit the confinements of the Holocaust, but in order to do so... One must have an absolute will in defying the very worst fear they hold in their heart. On the other hand, the longer one is unable to defeat their fears and overcome their regrets, the longer they will become starved of mana and mental fortitude - the Holocaust absorbing their life force and converting it back as a source of mana for it's Master, Himmler. The more regret one holds, the less likely they are to overcome this Noble Phantasm. For someone such as EMIYA, this would seem like a certain kill Noble Phantasm so it'd be best for him to discover Himmler's identity prior to him falling victim to it.

Additionally, there is a different purpose to this Noble Phantasm. One that Himmler cannot tap into with the source of his own mana. In order to be able to use it's fullest potential, Himmler must have a large source of mana that he himself could never procure in a reasonable time frame. On the other hand... should he ever come into contact with such a large mana pool, he will finally be able to start his darkest ritual. Inside of a ~99 space of radius, a large fiery Swastika mark will be inscribed across the fields. The Holocaust will take any life as it's victim, starting the process of creating thousands of worlds out of everyone's personal demons. Because the average person cannot defend from such a mental attack, they will undoubtedly face their demise inside of Holocaust's confinements. The more people Holocaust devours, the more the flesh balls will expand and form into a Throne created out of flesh - a hand made out of flesh portruding high into the skies as if it were trying to grab and pull something down.

....And indeed it is... The hand's purpose is clear. It is a ritual that uses the basis of their victims' suffering as a way to form a bridge between the living world and the Throne of Heroes, acting as a catalyst to summon back the most prominent members of Nazi Germany and with them... it's leader, Adolf Hitler. Each finger of the hand is a throne in itself - corresponding to Joseph Goebbels, Dietrich Eckart, Reinhard Heydrich, Hermann Göring and Erwina Rommel. However, rather than their summoning being necessary, the true purpose is to, along with the throne and purification of the place of summoning, grant them as a gift to the man being summoned in the very centre of the hand. The most important figure; Adolf Hitler.

Read personality section for the rest.

Lore

German National Socialist (Nazi) politician, police administrator, and military commander who became the second most powerful man in the Third Reich. The son of a Roman Catholic secondary-school master, Himmler studied agriculture after World War I and joined rightist paramilitary organizations. As a member of one of those, Ernst Rohm’s Reichskriegsflagge (“Imperial War Flag”), he participated in November 1923 in Adolf Hitler’s abortive Beer Hall Putsch in Munich. Himmler joined the Nazi Party in 1925, rose steadily in the party hierarchy, and was elected a deputy to the Reichstag (German parliament) in 1930.

The foundations of his future importance, however, were laid with his appointment as Reichsführer of the SS (Schutzstaffel; “Protective Echelon”), Hitler’s elite bodyguard, which was nominally under the control of the Sturmabteilung (SA; “Assault Division”). Himmler immediately began expanding the SS, which reached a membership of more than 50,000 by 1933. After Hitler gained power on January 30, 1933, Himmler became head of the Munich police and soon afterward became commander of all German police units outside Prussia. As such, he established the Third Reich’s first concentration camp, at Dachau.

Personality

A cold and ruthless individual. Himmler has absolutely no regard for the very concept of life. A highly ambitious who sees only his goals at the end of the tunnel and for the sake of them, he will go to any lengths. His presence is unpleasant to anyone who has even a shred of morality, including even individuals that were villainous in life. Even someone like the Witch of Betrayal, Medea, would feel sick talking to Heinrich Himmler should he shove his true colours. That is... IF he shows his true colours. When summoned, Himmler usually takes on a pleasant, laid back personality reminiscent of perhaps an old affectionate father who only wants to sit back and enjoy his time with family.

Because of this, anyone who speaks with Himmler might find him to be a kind and goofy parental figure without realizing his true underlying cruelty. As long as they are inexperienced with liars that is.

Adolf Hitler

''H-he is watching... I can feel his gaze cutting into the very core of my soul, his claws ready to sink into the flesh of my throat at any moment now... N-no! No, no, nonono..! I cannot make the same mistake as last time! I HAVE to prove myself. This time... I have to make it all... right.''

It is no secret, but much like most people during that period... the appearance of Adolf Hitler is something that struck Himmler to the very core of his being. Having felt like the pride of the nation was lost in Versailles and life in Germany was looking bleak, Hitler's sudden appearance and ideology drew Himmler to a state of absolute fanaticism towards the man. Himmler, like many, believed and still does believe that Adolf Hitler is a real life hero that swept down to save the German people from their despair. Himmler feels absolute respect towards Adolf Hitler and as the second most powerful man in Nazi Germany, he desires nothing more but the approval and praises from Hitler. Because of this state of mind, Himmler often desperately tried pleasing Hitler in any way possible, going to such lengths that made Hitler jokingly call him the ''the loyal Himmler''.

Though Hitler considered the man in high regards, he often considered Himmler's aspirations to be ridiculous and dismissed them. As such, Himmler grew increasingly more desperate to please Hitler. But because of that, his failures become more apparent and displeased the highly impatient Hitler, making their relationship turn sour. With his relationship with Hitler deteriorating and the loss of Nazi Germany becoming more and more apparent, in the end... even after pledging his undying loyalty to Hitler, Himmler ran away with his tail behind his legs. Because he couldn't stand the sight of Adolf Hitler losing - it was as if his very aspirations were being deemed impossible. After-all, ''if Adolf Hitler cannot achieve victory and save the world, nobody can''.

This action of cowardice, however, became Himmler's biggest regret after his ascension to the Throne. Instead of dying like a foolish and cowardly traitour, he should have died by Hitler's side... Brave and loyal to the very end. Or so he believes. As such, his biggest purpose when summoned into a Holy Grail War and enacting the ritual, mentioned above in Holocaust, is to summon Hitler and make up for his mistake of betrayal - once again asking for Adolf Hitler's forgiveness and approval.

On the same note... While he possesses resistance to mental attacks, he is also extremely weak to an attack which amplifies this very regret. It is very likely he would submit to a visualization of being crushed in the claws of a smiling giant Hitler, cowering like a fool and asking for forgiveness to the very end.

Erwin Rommel

He feels nothing, but discontent with her existence. He considers her a fool of the highest grade, and at the same time he is jealous of Hitler's favoritism towards her. While he is prancing around like a fool trying to please Hitler, she receives his approval as if it were nothing. An annoying little squirrel, that is what she is in his mind. It was due to a collaboration plan between Goebbels and himself that they framed Rommel for participation in the assassination attempt at Hitler's life, in order to finally remove her from Hitler's side.

Should she ever be summoned into a Holy Grail War along with him, he would take absolute pleasure in toying with her and making her submit until all her spirit has drained away and she has finally accepted the ideology of Adolf Hitler. Only then would he allow her to return to Hitler's side because after-all... He could present himself as the one who fixed the rebellious behaviour of one of Hitler's most favourable individuals to him!

Tactics

A Caster class Servant that prefers working from the sidelines and driving his enemies into destruction, he will work excellently with a Master that does not try to take control of the situation. Arguably the third most dangerous person in the Nazi order second only to Hitler and Heydrich, Himmler possesses excellent skill in manipulating facts to get his way.

He will prepare for atrocious means of defeating the enemy and drive them into his territory, where they can be cornered and slaughtered like mice.

[Bird of Hermes]

Another solid and well rounded sheet as always but how many of these guys do you have in store?

[4score7years]

Another solid and well rounded sheet as always but how many of these guys do you have in store?

Presumably, Joseph Goebbels, Reinhard Heydrich, and Hermann Göring are still to come because they were mentioned in the Phantasm. Plus various allies or Soviets.

As for the sheet, it's clear that a ton of work has gone into it. There is so much detail in the skills and NPs that it is almost hard to get my head around some of them. I think that being able to summon five heroic spirits is probably worth of more than a C rank Phantasm tho, even if it isn't the main usage of the ability.
