When you wake a Dragon in his Lair...
Why would I ever do Kay or Percival? A bunch of people have done them. Anything I did would already be influenced by what I've already seen and likely be treading the same ground without much difference. Perhaps with Percival, I could try something the other two didn't, but I see little point in that. I wanna do the ones people haven't considered before. That's the long and short of my want to make them.
Dunno. Might find out at some point, though.
That reminds me, I started on a Percival sheet after doing his son Lohengrin for a Contest submission. I'll have to see if I can find that one as well...
"Here's a bangin lil' tune about takin' on The Man!"
(Check out my Super Special Awesome Servant Compendium here)
Lohengrin is actually on my list.
Ambition. That is the only thing I require of you. If you cannot see past yourself and toward the goal that lies just beyond the horizon, then you may as well die right here. This world doesn't need statues unable to act.

Class: Saber
Other Classes: Ruler
True Name: Galeholt
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Place of Origin: Britain
Height: 191 cm.
Weight: 78 kilo.
Likes: Lancelot. Ambition. Progress.
Dislikes: Stagnation. Incompetence.
Natural Enemy: Dr. Heartless
Parameters:
STR: B
END: B
AGI: D
MGI: D
LCK: C
NP: B
Class Skills:
Magic Resistance (B):
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 (C):
One can flawlessly manage beasts and vehicles if they have received the proper training and adjustments. Most vehicles and animals can be handled with above average skill. However, cannot ride the likes of Phantasmal Species such as Monstrous Beasts.
Personal Skills:
Charisma (B):
The de facto ruler of thirty kingdoms as well as a man beloved by those he ruled over alongside being an intelligent military leader. Saber, without a doubt, was one bearing a great deal of charisma.
Tactics (B):
Even with the advantage of overwhelming numbers, one would be hard pressed to defeat the forces of Artoria due to the sheer power of the Knights of the Round. However, with a tactical mind that was able to conquer kingdoms with far less men and influence that was only honed over the years, he was able to match and even surpass those odds, granting his rank in the Skill.
Affection of the Strongest Knight (C):
Said to be a man that Lancelot loved and trusted with his entire being, this Skill’s rank has been diminished by Lancelot’s final actions, as it seems his love for Saber did not outweigh his madness. His Strength and Endurance gain a permanent rank up.
Noble Phantasm
Arondight: The Faded Light of the Lake (B)
Anti-Unit
A Noble Phantasm not belonging to Saber, but to Lancelot. When it is said Lancelot was buried next to him, it was actually referring to Arondight as a representation of Lancelot, who requested it remain with Galeholt as an apology and a reminder of the life of a knight he had abandoned.
Drawing this blade increases every stat by one rank except Luck as well as dealing extra damage against the Dragon attribute though Saber never slew one. Saber is also able to unleash its True Name, though only its Anti-Army version, as the version Lancelot uses is far too difficult for Saber.

Galeholt: I've seen a few versions of this guy before and they've all emphasized his devotion to Lancelot as his primary character trait. Here you did a good job of fleshing out his beliefs and convictions even prior to meeting Lancelot. Giving him Arondight as an NP is a little derivative but given his own fairly sparse legend and ties to Lancelot it makes sense. Overall quite good sheet.
By a couple, you mean one, unless someone messaged you without posting. I can see why he sticks out in your mind, especially after the conversation you had with him, but the character seems pretty bland. I can see what they were going for, but I think they really made him just a less compelling... well Servant. Not to say my version is anything special, but a True Neutral person wouldn't have done the things Galeholt did, nor would it make much sense if they did, given the described personality, stop it because of Lancelot or form such a connection with him.
Then we get bogged down by the NPs that honestly qualify him more for Faker than Lancer (in fact, the entire way he's written there lends more to that Class) that seem to be an attempt to make up for the lack of actually exploring the character and more trying to make it, for lack of a better term, wanked beyond believability for a character that's still somewhat obscure. Besides, touting his feats so highly to create them just feels like too much, in my opinion. I'd feel it'd be more acceptable if he actually had more story going for him, or if Artifact explored the character in his writing of the sheet.
Does this count as a rant? I didn't mean it to.
Yeah, I knew that going in. I was gonna list that Lancelot allowed him to use it as an NP both out of guilt and to keep his friend safe, but I felt that could be somewhat understood or interpreted without it. I do appreciate what Artifact tried to do with the second NP, but it just didn't feel appropriate to give something like that to him. I considered giving him an army summoner, but that also didn't feel right despite it being part of his claim to fame.
The Bull of Iardanus
True Name Allignment Class Alternative Classes Omphale Lawful Insane Lover Berserker / Faker
Height 1.90m Weight 82kg Region Libya Source Greek Myth Likes Hunting, Weaving Dislikes Pan, Iardanus
Parameters STR END AGI MAG LCK NP A+ C C E D B
Background The Daughter of King Iardanus, Omphale was a wild child determined to break as many rules as she could out of spite for her father’s attempts to curb her temper and free spirit. Spending weeks on end at a mountain, hunting beasts and attacking travelers, all the while wearing the skull of a horned monster.
Earning herself the nickname Iardanotauros, the Bull of Iardanus.
At a loss of what to do in order to reign in his daughter and her destructive tendencies, Iardanus pleaded with the gods, who sent him Tmolus, a son of Ares they said would be able to bring his unruly daughter to heel in exchange for becoming the next King.
Iardanus agreed, desperate for a solution.
And so Tmolus ventured forth into the mountain, looking for the savage princess. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that it was more of a hunt than a rescue, with days spent tracking down the cunning woman who’d spent most of her life making herself at home in the wilds.
But Tmolus was nothing if not determined and eventually found her hideout.
Needless to say, their first meeting wasn’t the most romantic. Tmolus ambushed her as she came back from a hunt, intent on capturing her. Only to be astounded by the woman’s strength, which rivalled those of the strongest men. A fight which Tmolus could not win.
Instead he left to nurse his wounds and think of a different approach.
If he could not force her to leave the mountain. Then he would tempt her.
Over the course of months, Tmolus would visit Omphale’s home whenever she left to hunt, leaving her gifts such as dresses, baskets of wool, small trinkets for her to amuse herself with. The wild woman grew to see it as a game, coming back earlier each time to try and catch him.
Day after day, night after night. Tmolus would avoid Omphale after leaving her gifts.Until she finally caught him.
They fought a second time and Tmolus lost, forced to remain in Omphale's home. He feared for his life, thinking the wild woman would eat him just as she had monsters and beasts alike. Only to be shocked when instead of killing him for his trespass, she allowed him out of her home the next day.
Omphale enjoyed the chase and the gifts, and thought it would spoil her fun if she killed Tmolus. Choosing to let him continue each day, catching him every so often as he tried to elude her.
Until the day he stopped visiting.
The gifts stopped and Omphale could no longer see the signs he’d visited her home.
Distraught at the idea that some ill might have befallen him, Iarnadotauros descended the mountain for the first time in years, only to find her playmate had been imprisoned, the King having grown dissatisfied with his lack of results, thinking Tmolus intended to trick him and take his kingdom.
Omphale rampaged, demanding Tmolus be returned.
She was strong, far too strong for normal soldiers. Stronger than even her father, who was seen as a god by his subjects. It was only a matter of course that she would barrel her way through whatever obstacles.
She confronted her father. Only to be met by a sickly waning king who admitted to sending Tmolus after her. Desperate to see Omphale return. Fearing Tmolus had killed her and lied about it so he would have the throne. And that he could not rule for much longer.
Omphale, for her part, was torn.
Indeed, she’d grown attached to Tmolus and would not find enjoyment in returning alone to the mountain. But if her father died, then there would be no kingdom and Tmolus would leave. What did she value more? Spite or Love?
In the end, Omphale chose love. Trusting the man who’d stubbornly chased after her for years, going along with her whims and games, respecting her strength to one who’d driven her away. She chose to take Tmolus as her husband and allow him to rule on her stead so long as he kept visiting her at the mountain.
A Happy Ending, no?
Unfortunately… the story doesn’t end here.
For the next few years, Omphale and Tmolus would have a stable loving relationship. He would rule and she would be allowed to pursue her passions, fighting monsters and hunting beasts at the mountain.
Her feats of wild strength, however, invited the affections of Pan, who enamoured with the woman’s wild nature, was derisive of the love which tempered it. After being refused many times by the queen, Pan felt he no longer could be denied, and cursed Omphale into rampaging.
Tmolus ascended the mountain, looking for her was he’d have countless times.
And was confronted by his bewitched wife.
Unable to calm her down, Tmolus tried for a final time to wrestle the wild woman and restrain her. Only to be gored by one of the horns she so proudly wore. Bleeding out before her very eyes, the sight was shocking enough that it brought Omphale back to her senses.
But it was too late.
And so it was said that King Tmolus, husband of Queen Omphale, died at the mountain named after himself. Gored by a Bull.
Pan succeeded in ridding Omphale of the pesky love which contained her.
At the cost of driving away all form of joy from her life.
Omphale left the mountain, taking the place Tmolus’ place as ruler and refused to return to the mountain. Until years later, when her elderly father would purchase the mighty Heracles as a slave, as penance for the man’s murder of Iphitus. In actuality this was a ploy by the Oracle Xenoclea to rid the great hero of the persistent madness which afflicted him.
By putting him on the path of Omphale.
Heartbroken, dissatisfied with life after the loss of Tmolus, Omphale used Heracles for petty amusements. But soon found herself a kin spirit in the form of the mad hero. For had she not suffered the same madness and killed someone beloved to her?
In the end, she chose to help him in the only way she knew how.
She let him out into the mountain. She fought and wrestled with the mad hero every day, and every day would leave him gifts, the same ones Tmolus had left her back at the mountain. And every day, Heracles would be dragged closer and closer from the edge of madness.
Amusingly, when he finally came to himself, Heracles found himself stark naked and in need of clothes. Of which he could only find dresses. The amusing image of the great hero forcing himself to wear a dress as he descended the mountain to meet with Omphale is one engraved in legend, but its true meaning has been lost.
Omphale, satisfied with her task, and having grown fond of him over the course of their games, took the man as her second husband.
Of course, that wasn’t the last time Pan would attempt to interfere with her love life.
Fortunately, this time there were no casualties.
The pair had children, Omphale regained some semblance of enjoyment out of life after helping Heracles as she had been helped by her husband. And the hero left soon after, continuing his journey after a few years with the wild woman.
No account is given of how Omphale died.
Some believe she returned to the mountain after passing on her responsibilities as Queen to her children. Content to return to the place where she found love. Not once, but twice.
This is the story of Queen Omphale, Iarnadotauros, the woman who forced mighty Heracles to wear a dress.
Personality A wild woman through and through. Omphale rejected the rules and restrictions of her father’s upbringing in favor of living in the mountain, free to pursue her interests such as hunting monsters and wrestling mighty beasts. A wild edge which she never lost as a Queen or even as a Mother.
Brash and physical, Omphale is playful and finds amusement in toying with others in a position of weakness. Which she did to Tmolus during their courtship and to Heracles. It could be said that she is sadistic the same way a cat is, playing with their food.
Nonetheless, Omphale is not needlessly cruel. Nor is she without a gentler side. Indeed, when she grows attached to others, she can develop a protective streak, rampaging and barreling through anything that tries to hurt them in the same brash confident way she’s always has.
Her sense of humor is also… unique, appreciating the irony of gifting her second lover the same presents she was given when Tmolus ‘courted’ her. So long as she initiates the courting, Omphale will always follow this pattern. That is not to say she won’t appreciate being the one courted.
She enjoys the chase and the gifts.
As a Heroic Spirit, Omphale is very straight forward. She wishes to find and conquer a new love. Much like she has done before. Seeing other heroic spirits as prime candidates and accessing her Master for the same qualities.
One of the few ways to earn her wrath is to try and control her actions. Restrict her behavior the same way her father tired in her youth. Omphale will react as she always has, by rebelling, fleeing, or killing the one who tries it.
Variant Class - Lover Heroic Spirit of Romance and Affairs.
Defined by the relationships of love and romance which they have built in their lives, these servants derive strength from the aspects of their legends connected to individuals they held romantic feelings for or those who held strong feelings for them. On the other hand, Lover class servants are also those who were the target of unrequited love.
Loved by others they did not love in turn.
Helen of Troy, Guinevere, Mark Anthony, Romeo.
They can all be considered candidates for the Lover Class.
Class Skills
LoverB One of the Skills associated with the Lover class, its rank determines the boost in power this Servant gains when they fall in love with an individual.
Beloved
C The degree of protectiveness this servant can inspire in other people. Omphale’s wild nature and domineering nature makes it rank low.
Personal Skills
Panic Roar
C+ Pan’s continued obsession with Omphale given form as a Skill. Giving her a boost in places considered wild such as forests and mountains. Since Omphale spurned Pan’s advances in life, its rank is low. Monstrous Strength
B Omphale’s raw natural strength. A skill which represents her rebellious upbringing, allowing her to match heroes and monsters alike in physical contests despite not having any divinity of her own whatsoever. Wild Queen’s Charisma
A A presence which entices and intimidates even those whose minds have been taken over by madness. Omphale is able to reach an understanding with them and give them orders.
Noble Phantasms Iardanotauros: The Bull of Mt. Tmolus Anti-Unit (Self) C
In many interpretations of the story, this incident isn’t considered an accident but a premeditated murder of Tmolus by his wife, Omphale. In actuality, Omphale was the one who caused Tmolus’ death by accident. This Noble Phantasm allows Omphale to recreate the incident by strengthening Pan’s Curse, turning herself into a more monstrous version with great horns, similar to the Minotauros. Omphale in this form cannot tell friend from foe and will only return to her senses after having killed someone. While active, this Noble Phantasm grants her Mad Enhancement at Rank A.
Queen’s Order: Labors of the Great Hero Anti-Army B
The story of Omphale stripping Heracles of his weapons and wearing them. While something that didn't occur as described, is something that Omphale as a Lover Servant is able to do. Summoning the items Heracles had on his possession when he was sent to Omphale. Those items include the Pelt of the Nemean Lion and the wooden club the hero was known to carry. Although Omphale can't use Heracles' techniques and these borrowed Noble Phantasms are a rank lower than they would otherwise be. Getting hit by them with her level of strength will definetely hurt. Not to mention the level of protection bestowed by the pelt.

Omphale: First off, cool formatting style. That aside, yours is definitely one of the most fleshed-out takes on this figure I've seen here. I like the touch that her giving Heracles women's clothes wasn't to humiliate him but just an innocent attempt to recreate the kindness that'd been shown to her. The 'Lover' Class doesn't really seem necessary (a Berserker with low-level Mad Enhancement that rises when she uses her first NP would be enough) but it does add some flavor to the sheet and it's always nice to see people attempting to come up with original Classes.
WELCOME BACK !! WyVERN !
A very good comback servant and i must seriously ask how you made this layout and she is indeed a Wild Cutie . I hope that you was alright in the meantime ?

The Lover Class was supposed to be a one time joke class I made in another forum. I decided to use Omphale for it, but the end result was a touch more serious than expected for a one-time joke. Maybe I'll post more Lover Servants down the line, maybe explore other Original Class ideas. And I'm glad you enjoyed this Omphale's backstory instead of the usual garden variant dominant woman with Heracles-flavored Noble Phantasms. I included that too, but gave more focus to her upbringing and her role as the 'bull' that killed her last husband.
Thank you for the warm welcome, and yes, I've been busy but well nonetheless. I did the layout on Google Docs and had to do some editing to make everything fit on BL's formatting system. If you want to add thse you need to click on the Table options and tinker with them until you get a handle.

Interesting idea in any case the class you "invented" which reminds me i also Invented A Class Remainer class which lets even non Heroic Spirits allowes to be summoned like what do you say About this servant Remainer "Wrangel" and thank you i will then try if i can make iit like this . And do you still working on the ither Lostbelt Olympians as they were quite fascinating and inspiring to be honest.

Omphale: Well, now I just want to make a Beatrice Lover.
I have to say, I enjoyed the comedic spin of one I've seen before, but I much more enjoyed this, probably because I like the story. Simple, a little different than what people expect, and all in all informative on her as a person. Add in a Class idea I might use at some point, and I have to say I've very pleased to have taken the time to read it. Good job.

Wyvern, there's so much I want to say about this Omphale. (But first of all, THAT FC? YOU CULTURED YOU.) Everything about this sheet - the format you used, the flavor text, the abilities, the character itself - is just s o g o o d! It all blends seamlessly into a fully formed and realized being. I also absolutely loved the "Lover" class designation too (and I wish I could create a Servant based on that now, ngl) I can totally see her being someone belonging to this class too indeed. BUT SERIOUSLY. I hope we can see more of you because every time you come back it's like this. An absolute bang.
Also WAAAAH I'M SO LATE I'M SORRY I'M SORRY but since I finally had the proper time to read everything I want to thank ya'll so so so much, thanks everyone that commented on my silly chuuni man. I love each and every one of you.
