    Class: Assassin
    True Name: Zero (???)
    Master: Emiya Shirou
    History: Zero was a revolutionary appearing in 2017 a.t.b. Now known primarily for his killing of the Demon emperor Lelouch vi Britannia.
    Zero was unique as a revolutionary in that while he primarily fought on the side of the subjugated Japanese he called himself a 'Hero of Justice' fighting on the side of those without power.
    Not much is known about Zero himself as his true identity was truly discovered though it is theorized that at least two different people wore the mask of Zero.

    Stats:
    STR: C
    END: C
    AGI: B
    MAN: C
    LUK: B++
    NP: A-

    Class Skills:
    - Presence Concealment B-
    Almost impossible to detect before entering battle however once Assassin enters a battle he cannot use this ability again until the battle ends.

    Personal Skills:
    - Guardian Knight B
    As the defender of justice Zero gains a bonus to his attributes whenever he defends someone weaker.

    - Military Tactics A
    Zero was considered a master Tactician especially adept at taking advantage of the terrain.

    - Information Erasure C-
    All information regarding the Servant's true name, abilities, and appearance are erased from the records and memories of all witnesses, including the opponent, following the conclusion of an engagement. However, evidence of the engagement is not removed from the scene, and by way of logical deduction, the Servant's identity may be revealed. Also anyone who knows Zeroes true Identity is immune to this effect.

    - Pioneer of the Stars EX
    Zero was the turning point of several events during his time that directly lead to the death of Emperor Lelouch vi Britannia and the ascension of Nunnaly vi Britannia. Due to this and the fact that several times he succeded where by all rights success should have been impossible he earned this skill.

    Noble Phantasm:

    Zero Requiem 'the end of tyrany'
    Rank: C+
    Type: Anti Unit
    A ornate sword that was used to kill Emperor Lelouch vi Britannia also known as the 'Demon Emperor' this weapon embodying Zero's ideal as a Hero of jusice it's strength increases proportionaly with the amount of people that hate the target of the wielder.

    Secret trump card 'two wishes'
    Rank A-
    Type: Support/Anti-Unit
    In truth there were at least two people who bore the name zero each with a very different set of abilities. As an Amalgam of both this Zero has access to two Noble phantasm. However since the two who took the name of zero were quite different in personality and ability Zero can only use one of them at a time. Switching between the two takes at least 1 hour of uninterupted rest and has a small mana cost.

    • Geass of Life: Any time Assasin is in a life-threatening situation his STR, END and AGI increase by one rank and he gains the Instinct skill at Rank B


    • Geass of absolute obediance: By looking in the targets eyes Zero can give one irrefutable command. To a servant this counts as a Command spell. Those with high enough willpower may be able to fight it for a few moments but in the end as long as Assasin can provide enough Mana the geass cannot be broken. However it cannot be used on anyone more then once and requires eye-contact it also has an effective range of 272meters.


    One Million Zeroes 'The Burden of Justice'
    Rank A-
    Type: Posession
    Zero was never truly a person. It is a concept. The Idea of a 'Hero of Justice'. This Noble Phantasm represents that fact. Even if Assassin is killed the spirit of Zero will remain in the world for as long as his master can provide mana. Should someone picks up the mask of Zero and choose (of his own free will!) to take on the burden of Zero. Assassin lives on. Whoever takes on the Mask becomes a Heroic Spirit with Zeroes Stats. However he does not have access to Zeroes Noble Phantasm, except for this one, nor does he gain any skills except for Presence Concealment. This is not strictly speaking possession as the one wearing the mask keeps his soul and body however the spirits of the previous Zero accompany him and at any time they can decide that he is unsuited for the role of Zero and revoke his status as heroic Spirit.

  2. #1282
    So having not seen Geass in its entirety, I admit that I don't follow everything, but, erm...

    "Zero is a concept", "There were two individuals who were Zero"- wouldn't that mean Zero would be like the Hassans, with the former Zero Servants being Heroic Spirit Candidates rather than true Heroic Spirits, complete with their own Zabaniya-esque Phantasms using Geass?

    The "I don't die even if I'm killed" concept is neat and all, but what's to stop his Master from taking up the mask? Also, why are two incredibly powerful abilities ranked "A-"? Is that a consequence of Emiya Shirou being the listed Master?

    EDIT: Also given Pioneer, wouldn't Zero's Luck stat be EX as well? Correct me if I'm wrong.

    EX Rank in Luck is basically telling Fate to take a hike, but 'Pioneer of the Stars' is simply defying possiblity and doing the impossible.
    Having both basically allows a Servant become Kamina/Simon the Digger.

    Oh? For some reason I thought Pioneer = EX in Luck as well, I must be misremembering xD

    Also, not to distract but is nobody guessing/commenting on Assassin? I thought the signs were fairly obvious, but maybe the character's not as immediately recognizable as I thought given the description I gave xD

    (The bullet catching should be a huge hint though, just saying)

    It's never explicitly stated, but it would make sense, because the only person to ever have EX Luck is Drake, who also has Pioneer of the Stars, which is a skill that directly affects what the Luck stat does. The only other character I can think of with an EX stat is Spartacus in Apocrypha, who has EX Endurance but also has a NP that specifically augments his endurance. It's probable, but unofficial speculation. ^^;

    That's my interpretation of it, at least. Which ties up with my interpretation of EX Luck: being free from the bounds of Fate, all results are dictated by the Servant's own ability. Luck rolls are substituted with appropriate stats ie Gae Bolg can be dodged based on AGI, Librarian of Stored Knowledge uses its Skill rank for checks, etc. Though this interpretation would make Eye of Mind (True) potentially more broken on an EX Lck Servant.

    I always wondered how to interpret EX Luck but I really like that idea. Fate no longer plays any role when you do the impossible on a routine basis. Yes, that's how I think I'll treat it from now on.


    Though it is entirely fan-theory of course. But good enough until an explanation is forthcoming. So forever, basically.

    Welll, given there's been either a serious lack of interest in my Assassin's identity or people just haven't figured him out, may as well pull off the mask and unveil him now-

    Adrian Veidt, eh? Hmm...maybe bump EotM down to D Rank.

    Where the hell does this Wiseup! silliness come from?

    ...If you're referring to the term itself it's a reference to the fact that the status screens in the F/SN visual novel denote new information about the various Servants by having the word "Wiseup!" appear next to it. If you're referring to the Phantasm's name, an allusion to both Veidt's master plan and a particularly telling line he speaks near the end of the story. If you're referring to the fact that I unveiled it afterward, I just like keeping things secret the first time I post a profile, occasionally :P

    As for whether I should down-grade Ozymandius's EotM, bear in mind that rank is bolstered by Perfection. I'm split on having it be baseline C, but somehow I still doubt that D is literal bullet-catching reflexes and anticipation (remember, he actually jumped and caught the bullet as Laurie was squeezing the trigger.) And while he hasn't been through "hundreds of battles", he's certainly wandered "hundreds of miles" and studied a fuckton of BS, the guy is a self-made superhero.

    Ah, really? I was right then, damn it. I should have lodged my guess but I thought Ozymandias would be too obvious with the bullet-catching, so I went searching for another bullet-catching human. Silly me :/

    I did say that the identity was obvious. :3

    Yeah, Veidt just kind of struck me as being one of those fictional characters who doesn't just make for a good profile, he deserves to have a good one, somewhere- whether that's mine is, of course, a topic on which I'm sure opinions will differ, but the fact remains that the type of character he is and the type of things he does make him one of those "modern-era" characters who could conceivably have made the Throne of Heroes without any BSing whatsoever.

    Except for the whole "different universe" thing and such.

    Yo. I'm back, I had to do a bit of research plus re-watch a few episodes. More Coming Later:

    Spoiler:
    Heroic Spirit: Hidari Shoutarou (Kamen Rider W)

    Servant Class: Rider
    Alignment: Lawful Good

    Attributes:
    Strength – E
    Agility – E
    Endurance – D
    Magic Energy – E
    Luck – B

    Noble Phantasm:
    Double Driver (N/A)
    Rider’s transformation device, it is a belt that can channel the power of the Gaia Memories into Rider’s other form. Not only does it transform him, but it also puts him into telepathic contact with his so-called other half on the Throne of Heroes, this other half seems to be able to connect with Akasha at Will…

    Gaia Memories (EX)
    The Gaia Memories are the physical representations of the powers and skills of everything that makes up our World, in a sense they are pieces of Akasha given physical form. Rider has access to only three of these memories, and it seems like his other half also has three they could access as well. Between them, they have nine different transformed forms, each one with its own strengths and weaknesses.

    Rider calls himself the Body of their partnership and his Gaia Memories seem to echo that, each dictating the way his transformed state will fight and even changing his physical attributes until the battle is over or he switches Memories. Furthermore, each of his forms have one Ultimate Attack called a Maximum Drive that unleashes the true power of the form with the aim of destroying the Concept that powers the opposing Servant when it is weak enough.

    Joker – The Trump Card Memory, it is the Memory that fully unlocks one’s fighting potential and enhances their body across the board. All Maximum Drives using this Memory have him plugging the Joker Memory into a special receptacle on the Double Drive. When combined with his other half’s Memories:
    - CycloneJoker – Rider’s preferred form, it combines the Trump Card Memory’s power with that of the Cyclone Memory, control over wind. (New Attributes: Strength C; Agility C; Endurance C)
    - HeatJoker – Combining the Heat Memory which can control fire with Joker. (New Attributes: Strength B; Agility C; Endurance C)
    - LunaJoker – Combines the strange Luna Memory and Joker. In this case, Luna grants Rider stretchable limbs. (New Attributes: Strength D; Agility B; Endurance C)

    Metal – The Steel Memory, it empowers Rider with great strength and durability, it also grants Rider with the use of the Metal Shaft, the weapon is also where the Metal Memory is plugged in to activate Maximum Drives. With other Memories:
    - CycloneMetal – Mixing the tough Metal memory and the fast and agile cyclone. (New Attributes: Strength B; Agility D; Endurance B)
    - HeatMetal – A preferred combination much like CycloneJoker, combining the power of Heat and the toughness of Metal. (New Attributes: Strength B; Agility D; Endurance B)
    - LunaMetal – Combines the strange Luna Memory and Metal. The Metal Shaft can be used like a whip in this form. (New Attributes: Strength C; Agility C; Endurance B)

    Trigger – The Sniper Memory, it grants its user with not only the TriggerMagnum, but also the skills to use it to its full potential; it is also where the Trigger Memory is plugged in for Maximum Drives. When paired with other memories:
    - CycloneTrigger – A combination of Cyclone and Trigger, this is capable of shooting bullets of compressed air at the opponent. (New Attributes: Strength E; Agility C; Endurance D) (TriggerMagnum damage output: C)
    - HeatTrigger – Combines the Heat Memory and Trigger, this form can shoot blasts of fire with a high damage output. (New Attributes: Strength D; Agility C; Endurance D) (TriggerMagnum damage output: B)
    - LunaTrigger – Combines the strange Luna Memory and Trigger. Luna’s power allows for homing shots. (New Attributes: Strength D; Agility C; Endurance D) (TriggerMagnum damage output: C)

    RevolGarry (N/A)
    Once it was the machine that allowed Rider to extend his flexibility to his personal vehicle, but it has since been lost. However, its spirit lives on:

    HardBoilder – An amazing bike, it’s quite possibly one of the more powerful bikes ever made. However, beyond that, it does nothing else of note.

    HardTurbuler – With a thought, the back end of HardBoilder transforms into the Turbuler attachment and with it, grants the vehicle flight, along with arming it with Scramble Cutter guns (C-ranked in damage).

    HardSplasher – The Boilder attachment could also transform into the Splasher attachment and grant the vehicle true aquatic capabilities both above and below water. It is also armed with a torpedo launcher (C-Ranked in Damage).

    Class Skills:
    Ride – A

    Personal Skills:
    Body’s Skill – A (Regardless of circumstance, there is no degradation to his fighting skills)
    Keywords – B (By remembering even the tiniest detail of an opposing Servant and through the contact he has with his other half, not only is the Information Erasure skill up to this skill’s rank nulled, but he could gain the true identity of that Servant)


    Spoiler:
    Heroic Spirit: Phillip (Kamen Rider W)

    Servant Class: Berserker
    Alignment: Lawful Neutral

    Attributes:
    Strength – E
    Agility – E
    Endurance – E
    Magic Energy – B
    Luck – D

    Noble Phantasm:
    Double Driver (N/A)
    Berserker’s transformation device, it is a belt that can channel the power of the Gaia Memories into Berserker’s other form. Not only does it transform him, but it also puts him into telepathic contact with his so-called other half on the Throne of Heroes, this other half seems to be just another hero.

    Fang Memory (EX)
    Created to protect Berserker at all costs and the source of Berserker’s class, it has a live mode were it moves on its own. However, Fang is a Gaia Memory and as such, Berserker can use it to transform:

    FangJoker – Though it can only be paired with Berserker’s other half’s Trump Card Memory, FangJoker is perhaps physically the strongest of all the Combinations, but it is also the most uncontrollable. When transformed, it is up to his other half to activate FangJoker’s weapon set and Maximum Drive. (New Attributes: Strength B; Agility B; Endurance B)

    Gaia Library (EX)
    Connected to an aspect of Akasha, what he calls the Gaia Library, Berserker can surprisingly be a wealth of any sort of information that one may need, including who an opposing Servant could have once been. This cannot be used under Mad Enhancement.

    Class Skills:
    Mad Enhancement – B (Activated only when he transforms into FangJoker)

    Personal Skills:
    Adaptable Body and Mind – C (The skills he can access in the Gaia Library he can use them at the rank of this skill, however, the skills that call for physical modifications cannot be copied, this skill cannot be used under Mad Enhancement)


    Spoiler:
    Justification behind the EX Ranks, I really couldn't figure out how to grade how the Gaia Memories worked to transform the Servant and their Physical stats, but then to go on and destroy Concepts that power their enemy...which seems to be canon. Now as for their Attributes' Rankings, if you follow the link and go down to the capabilities of the Rider, you would see that they are measured in tons and from there I simply extrapolated with FangJoker as a benchmark. None of the other forms are Faster or Stronger than FangJoker. Oh and yes, not using Xtreme, it complicated things a lot.

    The "I don't die even if I'm killed" concept is neat and all, but what's to stop his Master from taking up the mask? Also, why are two incredibly powerful abilities ranked "A-"? Is that a consequence of Emiya Shirou being the listed Master?

    EDIT: Also given Pioneer, wouldn't Zero's Luck stat be EX as well? Correct me if I'm wrong.
    Ok explanation time.
    The way I had imagined it Zero is both a Concept and a person.
    There exist a Heroic Spirit by the name of Zero who is made out of the souls of all who decided to take on the mask of Zero. In other words it's one heroic Spirit who is currently made of two persons. Most of the time the a mixture of both is in control (in this case Lelouch and Suzaku) of course should someone else take on the mask of Zero they'd become a heroic spirit as well (which is the whole reason for the 'One million Zeroes' NP) However at the same time each of them is also a true Heroic Spirit on their own.
    And yes he is quite similar to Hassan the main difference is that there only ever is one Zero (well most of the time) while there can be multiple Hassans at the same time.
    And yes the mask could simply be taken by the enemy which is one of the reasons why it has a -. It's also not indestructible and if it's destroyed no more Zero... (maybe I should give it a second minus...)
    I assume that you mean 'Secret trump card' for the two powerful Abilities (Though it's actually just one NP only with two different effects) The reason it has a - is because while both are quite powerful each has a limit on their usage.
    And yes they are weakend (at full Power Assassin can activate 'Geass of Life' at will and 'Geass of absolute Obediance' has unlimited range and can affect more then one target at once) and I guess it could be due to having Shirou as a Master...
    Zeroes Luck isn't EX all the time because the way I saw it it isn't always that good. Most of the Time he's got a Luck of B it's only when doing the impossible that his Luck rises to EX (Which is what the ++ is for... and which is signified by the Pioneer of stars skill) basically while Drake always has incredible Luck, Zero only has it when he realy needs it. (In fact the way Karma smacks him arround I'd considered reducing his Luck even more...)

    Hmhm. Well, I admit I like this W a lot more than your previous one (though come now, qsurf, you still owe me two profiles! This is a man's battle!) I'm surprised you picked Berserker as Philip's class though, since while FangJoker is a berserk memory, he has a lot more basis as a Caster given the range of Personal Skills he'd really have- and Gaia Library is actually pretty much guaranteed as a Caster skill, and one of the reasons I shrank away from doing it until I could square Philip with the Nasuverse. Regardless, he's canonically got basis for both Item Creation and potentially Territory Creation as well (EX, "Creation of a "Detective Agency", superior for Caster's purposes to a Workshop, is possible? [/silly]). Remember, Philip actually contributed to the development of many of the Gaia Memories.

    There's some minor inconsistencies in your profile for Shotaro still- for example, the Hardboilder really wouldn't rank EX because its effects are clearly measurable, and CycloneJoker is actually listed as having the same speed as HeatJoker and Lunajoker- technically, strength is a baseline point for all the forms, it's only the attack's "attribute" which changes- CycloneJoker is presumably a bit faster, HeatJoker adds fire damage to the punches and kicks, and LunaJoker allows for the manipulation of the user's body. I'd also note that Metal's speed, while well-placed in comparison to Joker's, seems very off- no, W doesn't have, say, Lancer-class Agility, but Shotaro by the end of the series can actually hold his own without transformation in a short skirmish with Utopia- the guy really deserves B for his transformed state, with C as the baseline, particularly since his conceptual attacks in-series can only specifically target Gaia Memories. It's not really a legend-breaker so much as it is designed-to-break-the-stuff-Philip-built-in-the-first-place (though I could see giving his attacks bonus damage against magical constructs such as amulets).

    Whew, that was a little text-wall-ish. Anyway, we had a Beatrice in one of the other threads (and an Umineko one somewhere back in this one), and since I am far too lazy to go back and check, I think it's my responsibility to go ahead and add the obvious follow-up.

    True Name: Dante Alighieri

    Class: Caster

    Parameters-

    Strength-
    D
    Agility- D
    Endurance- C
    Magic- A
    Luck- B (B+)

    Class Skills-

    Item Creation- E- A low level of aptitude for the creation of magical items and potions. Caster received this skill as a result of his class, but his magecraft moves outside the realm of 'academic' magecraft and his faith prevents him from using most traditional magics. As such, Caster is limited to using this skill to create minor trinkets with little magical value.

    Territory Creation- A+- Cast from his home in exile, Caster nonetheless creates "worlds". Creation of a "Temple", superior to a Workshop, is made possible. Territory may additionally be expanded outward up to the boundaries of a small city given enough time and prana supply.

    Personal Skills-

    Eye for Art- B (B+)- the many allusions to literary classics such as Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, as well as Virgil's Aeneid found within his own art proved Caster's artistic knowledge. If the enemy's Noble Phantasm has artistic anecdotes, Caster may be able to recognize both it and the true identity of the opposing Servant. Furthermore, the skill's trait may be conditionally increased if Caster comes into contact with a Heroic Spirit whose name formed part of his own Divine Comedy.

    Mental Pollution- D- The Servant's mind is clouded, granting bonuses to defense from mental interference magecraft, but preventing those without a similar level of mental pollution from coming to an understanding with the Servant. Caster believes that the Grail War is merely a test of "Beatrice" inviting him to come further up toward heaven, and thus acts not to seize the Grail directly, but solely to rebuild his fictional journey through hell, purgatory, and heaven into realities within the World.

    Noble Phantasm-

    Divine Comedy- Chain of Blessing- A- A Phantasm constructed not of the Servant's true life, but of his works, built from his greatest accomplishment- the creation of a legend which was greater than his own existence- and granted to him in place of magecraft by the Grail itself. Caster begins the Grail War as a "candidate" at first, neither a true Heroic Spirit but not unsuitable to be summoned as one. Once his territory has been created, he will enter within it and begin, from memory, rebuilding the world of his 'legend', the poem he wrote for himself both in retaliation for his exile and to exalt the woman he regarded as "ideal". Caster, once his territory is confirmed, may invoke his Divine Comedy as a grand-scale Reality Marble, imposing the internal world of his legend and its false realities upon the World, only within the confines of his territory. Anyone may enter or leave the Marble by moving out of the boundaries of Caster's territory, but once inside, the territory will begin defying space- expanding even a small area such as the inside of a house to encompass all of Caster's ideals of hell, purgatory and heaven. Time, as well, changes its flow within the Marble- while the maximum that Caster may maintain the Marble is one day before the strain of prana will kill even an ideal Master without some sort of external source, that time is expanded to a period of up to five weeks within it.

    The Marble itself is stranger still- rather than being intended for use in combat, the disturbing images, false demons, and tortures imagined by Caster are within it to test Caster and his Master, not the other participants. Caster will, once the Phantasm has been invoked, enter it along with his Master and guide him through "hell", "purgatory", and "heaven", taking the role he assigned to Virgil within his story. While the internal world is not hostile to Caster, since one cannot be destroyed by their own soul, it is created according to his desires and beliefs about the cosmos, which include "the possibility of the Master's destruction". Caster's Master will be sorely tried, both by the torments they must witness and avoid in hell, and by the tortures they must endure to walk through purgatory. If the journey is not completed within the time limit of the Marble, Caster and his Master will both die. If Caster's Master dies within the Marble, it will end as well. If Caster's Master- or indeed, any Master/Servant pair- reaches the end of the Phantasm, however, witnessing the Mystic Rose in the center, they will be granted the true purpose of the Phantasm- an elevated connection with the Great Grail which will allow them to instantly dispel the summoning of the other Servants, returning their essence to the Grail and bringing the war to a close, potentially within a twenty-four hour period.

    If Caster's territory is disturbed or destroyed while the Marble is in effect, Caster himself will be required to recreate it before he can invoke his Phantasm again. Furthermore, this Noble Phantasm, while a work of great magical skill, is in fact a miracle granted to the Servant through their legend and the power of the Grail, giving Caster only the most worthless works of Magecraft outside of it. Indeed, compared to modern magi, Caster's skills would be considered amateur at best. However, inside the Marble, while Caster cannot perfectly defend his Master due to his mental compulsions to "test" them, he has complete control of the various creatures his imagination has created within it, and may send them to deal with others who enter.
