Class and Personal Skills
Class Skills
Magic Resistance (E):
A skill that denotes a Servant’s ability to resist or cancel magic. At this rank Lancer is unable to cancel spells but reduce the effects a little. Born in an era where machines and industry was on the rise, science ruled over magic and so magic became few and far between.
Personal Skills
Inherent Wisdom (B):
A skill given to a Servant in recognition of their feats of wisdom or for the creation of a scientific advancement such as taming lightning. Provides a rank up equal the difference between this skill’s Rank and Lancer’s MAG stat after a spell has been used.
The skill that makes up for Lancer’s low magic resistance. Due to being born in a era where science was on the rise, the use of magic was few and far between, this lead Lancer to study science instead. Through his wisdom in science, Lancer is able to breakdown the make up of high level thaumaturgy and greater rituals and reduce the effects even further after the first casting.
Light of Possibilities (C+):
A skill given to a Servant in recognition of their ability to see the light in everything. This light can be as abstract as the good in humanity itself or the pure will to protect everyone around you. This skill provides a rank up in LCK.
In life Lancer longed for freedom for the world. This longing is most apparent in the meaning behind his iconic marvels, both stand for the births of freedom in two nations. this longing for the freedom of humanity manifested itself in the form of a skill. Now as a Servant, Lancer strives to protect that freedom that the world has obtained as a defender of the righteous.
Child of Industry ~ Marvel Maker ~ (A):
A unique skill given to Servants whose legends arose during or because of the industrial era. This skill acts as a pseudo Territory Creation skill of the same rank and allows the Servant to create a domain akin to “Eiffel Works” that is greater than a workshop in replace of an existing structure. With sufficient mana and materials, this workshop allows for the creation of golems or other structures.
The skill that idealizes Lancer’s profession that made his legend possible. An engineer by profession, the time in which he was born only propelled his desire to create works of modern marvel. This skill allows Lancer to create the workshop needed for his first Noble Phantasm to be used. With sufficient materials, Lancer is able to create Golems and weaponry that can be used by the golems at a relatively fast pace however he cannot construct his noble phantasm and golems at the same time.
Noble Phantasms
Libertas
Liberty Enlightening the World
Anti-Army Noble Phantasm (B)
Targets: 10 (1-10), Buster
A pseudo Noble Phantasm that Lancer can call upon after creating it. Libtertas takes the form of a giant bronze mechanical Golem in the form of the Roman goddess of freedom of the same name. This golem comes with a rank of B STR and END and a rank of E for MAG. Due to Lancer’s legend of construction Libertas in his workshop, this Noble Phantasm must first be constructed before it can be called upon. The materials needed to construct this noble phantasm must be the same as the original construct but the time needed to create it can be levied by the amount of mana expended during the creation process.
“Subjugation is stagnation, and that stagnation is the antithesis of evolution and change. The freedom that evolution provides is the light of humanity. Now sound the horns! Fire up the engines! Build the symbol of humanity’s new found light. LIBERTAS”
Exposition Universelle de Eiffel
My Marvel that Shines Across the World
Anti-City Noble Phantasm (A+)
Targets: size of Paris (population of Paris), Arts
Lancer’s true Noble Phantasm, the realization of the dreams inspired by his most iconic creation, the Eiffel Tower. Since it’s creation, the Eiffel Tower has stood as a physical representation of the hopes and dreams of millions of people. When invoked, Exposition Universelle de Eiffel creates a beam of light that surrounds where lancer stands. This light is made up of the pure forms of the hopes and dreams that the Eiffel Tower creates converted into pure magical energy. This light then forms into a glowing tower resembling the Eiffel Tower. Then upon the declaration of this Noble Phantasm’s name, a ring of light of incredible power is shot out from the tower reaching the area of the city of Paris. While to the outside observer this attack might seem like just a ray of light, this attack is truly considered hope personified. Due to Lancer’s love of architecture, this attack does not harm structures but instead all enemies within them. As long as the light of his Noble Phantasm touches his enemy they receive the full effects of the blast.
“What is impossible? Nothing I say to you. Has humanity not unlocked secret after secret of this world? What is impossible today is common the next. Let us seize this opportunity. Shine forth and give the world a symbol of possibilities. EXPOSITION UNIVERSELLE DE EIFFEL”
Background
Lancer was born into a family of modest wealth. Not one of power but also not one that lived paycheck to paycheck. During his formative years, lancer often complained about his schooling being to boring an easy. This boredom accompanied Lancer until he approached the railway engineer Charles Nepveu, who quickly noticed Lancer’s potential and took lancer under his wing.
At the end of 1866 Lancer managed to borrow enough money to set up his own workshops at 48 Rue Fouquet in Levalois-Perret. Where he began to quickly grow a name for himself in the world of architecture. Most notably creating two bridges in both Spain and South America. By the Exposition Universelle in 1878 firmly established his reputation as one of the leading engineers of the time.
Then then his first marvel was born. In 1881 Lancer was contacted by Auguste Bartholdi who was in need of an engineer to help him to realise the Statue of Liberty. Lancer then devised a structure consisting of a four legged pylon to support the copper sheeting which made up the body of the statue. The entire statue was erected at the Eiffel works in Paris before being dismantled and shipped to the United States.
After the birth of this modern marvel and representation of freedom Lancer took to planning his next miracle. The design for his tower was exhibited at the Exhibition of Decorative Arts in the autumn of 1884. The tower had been a subject of some controversy, attracting criticism both from those who did not believe it feasible and from those who objected on artistic grounds. Just as work began at the Champ de Mars, the "Committee of Three Hundred" (one member for each metre of the tower's height) was formed, led by Charles Granier and including some of the most important figures of the French arts establishment. However, Lancer was able to complete it I’m just a mere 2 years since breaking ground. Completing a modern marvel akin to pyramids in Egypt. The tower was later named after him. Lancer spoke of this tower as not only modern art, but also the culmination of the last era and it’s impact on the freedom of humanity and science.
Lancer is not normally what one would call a heroic spirit. In life he did not fight some great evil or was born of divine lineage, instead lancer was called upon by the throne of heroes due to the fame two of his most iconic works have gained and the emotions they inspire. As long as those monuments stand, Lancer’s memories cannot vanish. lancer is normally summoned in the CASTER class, if a spark of hope is added to the incantation for his summon, he can manifest in the LANCER class. If summoned in the CASTER class, his Noble Phantasms retain the same name but change effects.

One thing is for sure in this world, that is that change is constant ultimately requiring courage and adaptability to forge a name for oneself.

It was said that he had never met a stranger and would go out of his way to meet new and interesting people. This love of people and carefree attitude only fed his love of freedom. Lancer was known as an anti-monarchist and staunch proponent of freedom for the world.
