Not me being so late to the party...
But I guess I still owe our brave creators some praise. I'm so sorry I took this long.
John III Sobieski: I ADORE HIM. I ADORE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS SHEET. I wish I could have recorded my reaction because I was having a blast reading it... I don't even care that you bullshit'd your way through it (hey, good to know my philosophy is getting to you) it's still amazing and amusing and I want this pseudo-servant right now in the canon. Please Nasu, if you're stalking this thread, please make it happen. I'll pay good money (no I won't I don't have any but).
Zumbi dos Palmares: Absolutely AMAZING entry here. I think that your respect to this figure is pretty evident in the way you crafted such a respectful character. The way he's like this Asian grandparent looking disapprovingly at our life choices is also a plus - I like so much of these type of characters. And his skills? And his noble phantasm? And the way he's such a fighter in all the good ways? I really wish I could find a lot of other great words to make you very aware of how much he pleases me. Great job!
Temujin: OOF. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH??? I think you've captured that alien feeling that he'd emanate pretty well. Something that is barely human and still has a human face is so much more scary, the uncanny valley of the character got to me. At least, that was the impression I got from him. And also I have to say, this is one of the best NPs I've seen in a while, I dunno, the idea of him being a virus nested in our civilization for all this time is so terrifying.
Kublai Khan: All hail big bad waifu. I liked this sheet so much but then you had this PRESENTATION... I'm a visual person myself, so I like to make the reading experience a fun time for people by messing around with colors and fonts and other unnecessary details, so this way you found to make it stand out pleases me a lot. And hoo, what a pleasant experience it was. The character has no faults (HEWWO EVIL WAIFU) and the sheet is also immaculate. What else could we ask for?
Empress Jingu: EXCUSE ME? I LOVE HER?? The way this FC alone already made my heart flutter... And then comes the sheet and just obliterates me even further. I already love this character and every time someone does a sheet of her is a blast, but I think there's something so... So unique about your rendition of her. I dunno, I can't even explain, is this what love at first sight feels like?
Miguel I of Portugal: THE ABSOLUTE MADMAN, YOU DID IT. I love this man so much. And I'm so honored that I could inspire you to create such a character, really, I'll put this in my list of accomplishments... Because everyone in the world should love him. What is there to hate about a vengeance-filled, hate-mongering asshole? He's perfect. Look at him, all grumpy and crazy. Look at him, the cutie. *pinches his cheeks* BUT REALLY. I loved the way you transformed what was a pretty normal character into this crazy experience of a sheet. I hope everyone loves him as much as I do.
Jacquotte Delahaye: THE WAY YOU BLEW ME AWAY, MAN. I wish I had more compliments to tell you because hoo boy, this is a sheet that deserves every single praise it gets! I could NEVER write her dialogue, I barely understood what was being said myself, but damn if it wasn't so fun to get her personality from her interactions. She seems like such a fun person to be around, perfectly embodying the "pirate character" that even the pirates aspired to be.
Paul von Hindenburg: You guys have to STOP droping these bombs (hah) here. THIS MAN, THIS MAN RIGHT HERE. I can't even fathom the work that must have been coding this sheet but the final result is astounding. I was having so much fun reading everything and also pretty sure my mouth was agape at how good it was. I can feel the hard work poured into this character and the long hours it must have took to type this all. I dunno, to look at this sheet is like to look at a pretty picture in the Louvre museum, I guess.
Tiberius: Best FC of this entire competition? Check. Amazing concept of a man that just wants to have a peaceful life and then remembers that he is the ruler of a place? Check. Absolutely crazy execution that made me love him so much I want to see him thrive I want to protect him? Check. What can I say... He's perfect. You did it again, you crazy motherfucker.
Thuŋkášila Šákpe: OH MAN. I did like you ordered me to and the experience was indeed enhanced by it. I absolutely loved this sheet, what a great job you did here! (And I also learned about a figure I had no idea that existed before, so thank you for also enlightening me.)
Constantinus: I'm so glad someone picked him. You did such a good job too, I'm just so glad overall of seeing a good character being done justice and coming out great in the end. One thing I love about your sheets is how you also take care to present the skills and abilities of their alternative classes, it always enhances the experience so much... And in this case it wasn't different. It made me perfectly picture his two versions, and both are terrifying and amazing in the same way.
Vlad Dracula Tepes: KOGA? THIS IS ACTUALLY GOOD? I like how you are visibly improving in your sheet making abilities. This dude right here, it's pretty nice. Wanked but pretty nice. (I think it's part of your style to wank your characters, but I guess it still surprises me in a "wow he really did it!" way. I'm jealous of your bravery lol). The way you took everything that makes this man terrifying and amazing and transformed in either a skill or a noble phantasm... I guess this is your superpower, huh. I hope you can continue to give us more awesomeness like this.
Henry Tudor VIII: I'M SO GLAD SOMEONE PICKED HIM. I'M JUST SO HAPPY. Thank you. I'll praise you to the moon and back for this idea, for this amazing execution and for the FC. Oh lord this FC is perfection. What a greasy asshole, this is perfect!
Kim Il-sung: I'M SO DEAD AT THE AUDACITY OF THIS SHEET. I loved it so much. Thank you thank you.
EXCUSE ME I'D NEVER FORGET ABOUT YOU, BAE. <3Originally Posted by Morg van Destro
But hey, I guess I'll take this opportunity to apologize to everyone for deliverying a half-unsatisfying final experience, all things considered. I wish I could blame outside factors for this but ultimately it was just my writer's block doing its job and blocking me from achieving ultimate performance and not relaying properly all the ideas I wished to convey?
The reason why she's a Faker (and the reason why she's impersonating Pedro II) are pretty much like "the last defense mechanism" of this own servant against her own ""derrangedeness"". ("But WF this is not what the Faker class is about!" "My dear reader, do you think I care? I'M THE BULLSHITNATOR.") Like someone that locks a diary with a key, this servant locks itself in an alternate personality embodying what she thinks it's "a proper ruler" or even "a proper human being". It's why she has such a high rank of Camouflage, she is hiding all the ugliness of her own reality behind this. I wanted to make someone that deep down knows she is a lost cause but is so far down in the rabbit hole that chasing after freedom - even from herself - is really the only thing she can do by this point. This is why she'll never truly be a Beast, despite being a candidate, much in the same vein that Douman tried to become a Beast himself in his LB: she hates humanity, she hates herself. She doesn't love a thing anymore.
And you're so right, she definitely is that person who likes to be "the one who saves", not really carying about "the way she saves". I think you got much of her character right - which makes me so happy - but the part that got lost in the translation is entirely my fault. I'm sorry ;_;
BUT EVEN THEN I'm so glad and so humbled beyond belief that so many people still liked her. You guys make me happy to be here everyday. ;_;
Also I need some time to think about what I want to do with my ranking... I TOLD YOU GUYS YOU'D PUT ME IN A BAD SPOT IF YOU KEPT POURING ONE BANGER AFTER ANOTHER.
