Servant Lancer:
Appearance:
True Name: Phinehas
Alignment: Lawful Good
Alternate Classes: Caster, Assassin
Strength- C+
Agility- C
Endurance- B
Mana- C
Luck- B
NP- B
Personality
Class Skills:
Magic Resistance- B
Confers protection against magical effects. At this rank, spells with a chant below three verses are nullified. Even if targeted by the likes of High Thaumaturgy or Greater Rituals, it is difficult for the Servant to be affected. Lancer's high resistance stems from his burning zeal for God.
Personal Skills:
Zealotry- A+
A Skill where normally unattainable mental strength can be obtained by having so much religious faith in something that it is beyond the understanding of those around the user. Trauma is instantly overcome and a strong resistance to mental interference type Magecraft is obtained.
In Lancer's case, he also gains a small boost in Strength while acting on his burning zeal. Lancer was an extraordinarily zealous man in life. When he saw the Israelite chieftain Zimli conduct himself disgracefully with a Midinate woman Cozbi in the Tabernacle, he drew his spear and charged in to kill both of them on the spot. Afterwards, Lancer's crimes were forgiven as it was deemed that he'd acted on his zeal for the Lord rather than personal anger or grudges.
Covenant Of Eternal Priesthood- A
The crystallized blessing Lancer received for killing the flagrant chieftain Zimli and appeasing God's wrath. He and all his descendants would be recognized as priests for eternity. This Skill allows Lancer to access any and all sacraments deriving from the priesthood. He can even use sacraments of the Holy Church that were established long after his own death, since they trace back to his original priesthood.
Exorcism rites, healing prayers and the ability to manufacture sacred relics like wards and holy water akin to Item Construction are all included in this Skill. He's even adept in the Jacob's Limbs school of martial arts, giving him a decent proficiency for hand-to-hand combat when deprived of his spear.
Since the blessing also applies to his descendants, Lancer can grant this Skill's effects to others by acknowledging them as his heirs. However given his strict sense of justice he wouldn't do so unless he made sure they were worthy...
Plague-Breaker- B
A Skill held by those who were known for dispelling plagues and other ailments by miraculous means. In legend Lancer quelled God's anger and lifted a plague upon his people by slaying the corrupt chieftain Zimli. Renders Lancer immune to corrupting influences like diseases, but also poisons and certain curses below this Skill's own rank. Additionally by resting the tip of his spear on those victimized by such maledictions, Lancer can cure them.
Noble Phantasm
So this is the second sheet I'd been saving up. It's obviously intended as a compliment to the Balaam one I posted up for the contest. As usual, comments and critiques would be appreciated. Thanks for reading!

"I'm not a traitor, I'm not, I'm not... am I?"
Servant Assassin:
Appearance:
Source
True Name: Antenor
Alignment: True Neutral
Strength- E
Agility- D
Endurance- D
Mana- C
Luck- D
NP- A
Personality
Class Skills:
Presence Concealment- D
The ability to cut off one's presence as a Servant. However the level of concealment drops sharply the moment one prepares to attack. At this rank, it's suitable for spying so long as no sudden movements are made. Even as a spy who betrayed his country, he did so through words rather than stealth, and hence merits only a low rank in this Skill.
Personal Skills:
Dissociation- A
The Servant's mentality, thoughts and memories have become irrevocably muddled. This Skill lets Assassin block out mental interference at the same rank, but also weakens his hold on reality. Assassin possesses this Skill due to how his mind is constantly torn between the conflicting halves of his legend, the diligent statesman who tried to do the best for his country and the cowardly, detestable traitor. His memories are a jumble of both accounts, shifting and blurring into each other, leaving no clear way of knowing which is "true". This contradiction- and the uncertainty of knowing his true self- renders Assassin's mindset highly unstable.
Innocent Monster- E
A Skill for one whose true existence and attribute has been distorted by the false reputation and gossip accumulated over the course of their life and hereafter. The Servant's abilities have been altered to conform to the specifications of their legend, without regard for the actual person's will or appearance.
In Assassin's case, the legend that he was behind the fall of Troy by opening the city's gates to the enemy has manifested in his body becoming charred by noticable burn-scars on the left side. These aren't actual wounds he suffered in the burning of Troy, but Assassin's guilt and anguish over the ruin of his beloved city seared onto his very flesh.
Aside from warping his appearance, this Skill gives Assassin a minor immunity towards fire-based attacks. Albeit this is only damage-wise, and does nothing for the mental pain he feels.
Mana Burst (Flames)- D+
Indicates a boost in performance by way of infusing one's body or weaponry with magical energy that imparts a fiery effect. As one who allegedly invited the burning of Troy, if not sparking the blaze himself, Assassin can channel the very flames that once razed his city to ashes. When using this Skill Assassin's hands ignite, becoming engulfed in brilliant flames. He can then grab the opponent to burn them or expel the fire in a short-ranged, scorching stream from his hands akin to a flamethrower.
As he conducts the flames through his own body instead of a weapon this process is excruciatingly painful for Assassin, as well as inflicting him a small degree of self-damage every time he uses it. But Assassin welcomes that pain as a worthy punishment for his sins.
Noble Phantasms
Thread's gotten a bit quiet lately, hasn't it? I get that people are probably busy getting ready for the new contest, but still, some feedback would be nice. Oh well, here's another sheet from me. Hope y'all enjoy this "traitor who isn't a traitor". I'm pretty satisfied with how I handled the duality in his legend/personality...

Servant Caster:
Appearance:
Source
True Name: Aeschylus
Alignment: Neutral Good
Alternate Class: Lancer
Armaments: A hoplite spear and shield.
Strength- C+
Agility- B
Endurance- D
Mana- B
Luck- C
NP- A
Personality
Class Skills:
Territory Creation- B
The ability to formulate a territory advantageous to oneself as a Magus. At this rank, creation of a "Theatre" equivalent to a Workshop becomes possible.
Item Construction- E
A talent to craft magical items. Caster can only create manuscripts on which to write his plays, and hence merits a low rank in this Skill.
Personal Skills:
Eleusinian Magecraft- C+
Indicates proficiency in the Eleusinian Mysteries, the sacred rites of the goddess Demeter. Like many Greeks Caster was initiated in the Mysteries, and according to legend even incurred assassination-attempts for revealing some of the cult's secrets in his plays. This Skill enables Caster to evoke powerful nature-manipulation Magecraft that stems from Demeter's authorities as a goddess of the wild and agriculture. He can draw on magical energy from his surroundings akin to the Child Of Nature Skill. As well Caster can command vegetation around him, making vines grow to snare the enemy's feet or entwining tree-branches to form barricades.
For his strongest spell Caster can recreate Persephone's feat of descending to the Underworld, vanishing from the mortal World and becoming intangible. While in this state Caster's form becomes a shimmering dark purple afterimage and he can pass through any opponents and obstacles as if they weren't there. However the Underworld is a place where only the dead are permitted, that inherently rejects the logic of the living. As such Caster's magical energy is constantly drained as long as he spends time there, ensuring he can only use this ability briefly. Seven seconds is the longest time Caster can safely stay in the Underworld before having to return, though more might be possible for truly exceptional Masters. This spell costs a lot of magical energy to use so Caster can't spam it.
Tragedian's Eye- A
A variant of Eye For Art Caster obtains as the Father of Greek Tragedy. Makes possible to glean a Servant's true identity provided they came to a tragic end in life.
Bloodstained Demon- B
The Servant boasts a martial story improper for a Caster. Provides bonuses to close-range combat power, since he is proficient with the sword, spear and shield. As well as a legendary playwright, Caster was also a capable soldier who fought against the Persians in several battles. In his own era, Caster was actually more renowned for his feats as a soldier than any of his theatrical accomplishments.
Noble Phantasm
Have a Greek playwright Caster. I struggled a bit making his NP more than a "traps the enemy in a play recreating their worst tragedy" one that'd rip off Shakespeare's. It ultimately ended up more like a generic army-summon instead, though I tried to set it apart in an interesting way. As usual, comments and critiques would be welcome. Thanks for reading!
Also, since it just got posted up now I might as well comment on BoktaiMoon's Alcestis/Admetus:
The idea of Alcestis being summoned in Admetus' place because she served as his sacrifice in legend is a cool way to justify them sharing a body. Her chatting with Admetus inside her head so it looks like she's spacing out is also an amusing bit of imagery, and a heartwarming way of showing the love between them.
I like how her Territory/Item Creation variants are themed after "hospitality" but the latter feels a bit high-ranked for just creating common household items even if they are really good. I'd say B would be enough there. Also her Affection Of The God Skill seems to totally break precedent for what that Skill is like in canon, where it only ranks up the Servant's stats rather than granting a plethora of vaguely related buffs. Given it's higher ranked you still don't give a justification for why her version is completely different. Also calling on Apollo's authority to the level of casually destroying cities seems a bit much for just a Personal Skill, even if it's not something she'd normally do. Since divine Authority is supposed to be almost unusable in the modern age, I'd advise toning this part down considerably.
The NP is fine, and a cool way of combining the distinct elements of her legend.

Affection of the Male God- Apollo aiding Paris was more out of vengeance against Achilles than actually liking Paris and yet the latter has Affections at C rank which warps him to his shota body, increases stats and Troia Velos is specifically called out as being 99% Apollo and 1% Paris and Artemis love is called as a 'heavy burden' in Orion's profile so I just went turbo nuts with it for a person Apollo wholeheartedly loves and it wouldn't be calling his authority but more like High-Speed Divine Words but only to spells related to Apollo. Still bullshit but not impossible to surpass
Also holy fuck the entire story of Admetus and Apollo is basically that they dated for a while, amicably split up while still being best friends and then Apollo basically nets him Alcestis hand. ALL OF THIS OUT OF FRIENDSHIP and not a God-King relationship like how Aphro got Paris Hellen because he judged her the hottest of the Olympians
And this is Apollo. Aka Bisexual Siscon Disaster Yandere of Bad Endings and Admetus managed to remain friends with him his whole life
Hospitality isn't only personality its also showing how cash money you are and well legendary for it so....
Also Servants destroying Cities was impressive in FSN. Now? Pfft that's a joke

Servant Shielder:
Appearance:
Source
True Name: Lagertha
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Alternate Classes: Lancer, Rider
Armaments: A traditional Viking longsword and her (Noble Phantasm) shield.
Strength- B
Agility- B+
Endurance- A
Mana- C
Luck- C
NP- C
Personality
Class Skills:
Territory Defense- B
An inherent Skill of the Shielder Class. A power displayed when protecting allies or an allied camp. Exhibits damage reduction surpassing the defensive limit value, but Shielder herself is not included as a target. Also, the higher the rank, the more protective range spreads. As one of the prototypical images of a Nordic shieldmaiden in popular culture, even being likened to a valkyrie, Lagertha obtains a high affinity for this Skill.
Magic Resistance- C
Confers protection against magical effects. At this rank spells with a chant below two verses are nullified. Cannot cope against the likes of High Thaumaturgy or Greater Rituals. Shielder lived past the Age of Gods and has no mention of either encountering or wielding Magecraft in life. As such she'd normally sport only a meager D or even E-rank in this Skill. However, the rumors equating her to an old valkyrie or the Nordic goddess Thorgerd have imbued Shielder's legend with a level of mystery behind that which it initially possessed. Thus her level of resistance has been bolstered to an average, but respectable C-rank.
Riding- B
The ability to ride animals and handle vehicles. At this rank, all mundane mounts can be ridden at a high degree of skill, but not Phantasmal or Divine Beasts. Shielder has a natural knack for animals, having trained a great bear and dog to guard her home. While she can't normally control Phantasmal or Divine Beasts, an exception is made for those conjured by her Noble Phantasm. Though in that case it's not so much "control" as them simply having a preexisting loyalty to Shielder such that they naturally do what she wants.
Personal Skills:
Mana Burst (Speed)- B
A subspecies Mana Burst where the Servant pumps magical energy into their legs, permitting short bursts of immense speed. Shielder obtains this Skill from the legends extolling her agility on the battlefield. She earned the epithet "Valkyrie" for her incredible speed, even seeming like she was flying at times. In combat Shielder dances nimbly over the field like the valkyries of old, able to perform feats like darting around the enemy lines to strike from the rear faster than they can react. She can even propel herself through the air thanks to this Skill, truly living up to the title of Valkyrie.
Divinity- C
Qualifies one's aptitude as a Divine Spirit. At higher ranks, one reaches the level of a "Demigod"- a mixed-race of divine and mortal. Though Shielder had no divine blood in life, some theories paint her as an equivalent of Thorgerd, an ancient Norse goddess. This connection affords Shielder a modest amount of divinity.
Flowing Hair Of Valor- A
In legends Shielder was described as one who fought as bravely as a man while letting her hair flow freely down her shoulders. This is a composite Skill that attests Shielder's nature as one who embraced both her femininity and prowess in battle without denying either. Bestows Shielder a bevy of both beauty and battle related Skills including Bravery, Grace Of God, Knowledge Of Melee, Golden Rule (Body) and Battle Continuation at ranks ranging from C to A.
Her delicate figure while fighting valiantly on the battlefield was enough to charm King Ragnar Lodbrok, who immediately sought to claim Shielder as his bride.
Noble Phantasm

Paris actually has Affection Of The God at B-rank, not C. But you've convinced me that Admetus merits a stronger version of the Skill, and the pseudo-Divine Words effect you've given is fair enough. I'd still advise changing the part about destroying cities though. The problem isn't the feat itself, it's that Apollo is the one doing it and only through a Personal Skill at that (even the strongest Servants generally need their NPs to reach city-destroying territory). As I said, Authority of the gods is established to be practically unusable nowadays, so I really doubt Apollo would be able to intervene in the present World so easily.
Brynhilde being able to call on Odin's authority as a Servant was an extremely exceptional case that was only possible because Odin exists outside of the time-axis or something. It's not a feat every god should be able to replicate. Artemis managed to manifest in the present to tag along with Orion, but that in itself required sacrificing most of her divinity and latching on to Orion's Saint Graph. For Apollo to be able of just casually showing up and wrecking stuff really doesn't jibe with how Gods and their Authorities work in Nasuverse. So you can keep the buffs, but the "calling down Apollo himself" bit should really be reworked IMO.
By the way, any thoughts on my two latest sheets?

Valid. I kinda forget Cerberus is a weak ass bitch in SF because divine beast but its weird how Phoebus Castastrophe is strong as always despite it being a prayer to Artemis or did that change?
Aeschylus- I liked how his whole kit is being a godamned cockroach until he can work the enemy into his story its a pretty amusing sight given most Author Casters just crumple if anyone gets at meele range
Lagertha- SMT Chaos Waifu is that you? I am reminded of Brynhildr being okay with Sigurd's amnesia as he is still 'happy' with Gudrun then she finds out he remembers everything and flips her shit. Very unga bunga monster girl. Beat me=husband and gimme kids. Is that Ragnar the Aslaug one?
Last edited by BoktaiMoon; August 4th, 2020 at 06:36 PM.
Yasuke: I was actually wondering when someone was going to write up a Yasuke sheet with this FC. His personality is interesting, though a little under fleshed-out. I'm kind of curious what his hobbies are or what he does when not fighting/serving his lord, but the glimpse you gave is fair enough for a simple Servant profile. Though, if he has no interest in the Grail why would he even be summoned normally? It sounds like he's loyal to Nobu in particular, not just any lord, so he wouldn't have a "second chance at life so I can serve my liege properly" wish like Diarmuid. Or would he only answer if he senses his potential Master to be a kindred spirit?
His NP is simple, but works well. The demonic imagery makes a fitting reflection of Nobu's, and the art you chose for it is certainly badass. (I presume from the same chara as the FC? Haven't been keeping up with Guilty Gear lately...)
Anyways, thanks for the feedback Boktai. On Lagertha, her FC is actually Chariot from Black Rock Shooter. And yeah, that is the same Ragnar as with his much more famous second wife. Turns out nearly having your prospective husband eaten by dogs and bears isn't a great recipe for a long-lasting relationship, who knew. That reminds me, Ragnar would probably make a pretty interesting Heroic Spirit in his own right...

Yeah more or less implied that Yasuke might have been his people's last resort with magic bullshit (the servants with natural body are Roma, King Hassan, Kintoki, Altera, Magni) and with his intellect he'd be King but then everything went wrong and he ended up as a slave. A super smart strong slave is just screaming for rebellion to happen so he was given to the shadiest jesuits around whom tried to break the shit outta of him. It worked on some levels given he hollowed himself a la Shirou but not all of it at once then bam Nobunaga talking to Yasuke and taking him in after bribing the jesuits with some loot she got from burning the monkmen, monkwomen and monkchildren. 100% Orange-kun loyalty started from there but as Nobu treated him as a friend and equal he slowly recovered from the trauma (would still murder conquistadores and slavers on sight with no chill at all). He became a Hero because being Nobunaga's friend had that as a requirement lol
Outside of it he's a real quiet guy who is more or less the wholesome chad meme who wants people to live up to their potential....even if that potential means being a crazy fucking warlord. Also just hearing about a 'Holy Grail' automatically makes him fucking hate it because he had to live through the utter hypocrisy that was slavery of africans so to him its all made up bullshit and if this God exists it doesn't love humanity at all and cue Nobunaga showing how corrupt the religious caste of Japan was and Yasuke wrote off magic and all things related to it forever in his mind. Might be a lead up to an event with African Heroic Spirits and Nzambi hating Yasuke for 'forgetting/abandoning' the past? Then again I don't know jack about african religions and Yasuke's origins are impossible to trace so....
Ragnar is not a smart man
"I will trade this waifu for the obvious unsettling witch whom claims to be a descendant of the all fa---OH SHIT SHE ACTUALLY IS SIGURD'S KID"
And constantly trying to cheat on her when she made it clear she wasn't going to be cheated on and would use her super runic powers to fuck his shit up if he tried
Last edited by BoktaiMoon; August 4th, 2020 at 08:10 PM.
I hadn't actually heard any legends that Aslaug was "unsettling" or their marriage ended badly, if that's what you're implying. Sure he did try to cheat on her once, but he was sort of pressured into that and quickly called it off once he found out about the whole "daughter of Sigurd" deal. And she doesn't seem to have held a grudge, since she even wove a magical shirt of protection for him when he went off on his last sail.
He called Auslag a worthless slut to her face and Auslag got so fucking pissed she had Sigurd 2 be born with Fafnir's eye and said if her next kid was truly Ragnar's he would be born without bones and surprise he has no bones
She is kinda a monster but let's not pretend Ragnar didn't step on landmines constantly around her

Apologies for being kinda away lately. Life is happening. BUT I've been reading our latest sheets and gagging over the quality of them! I still have a long way to adress all of them properly, but I suppose I should start from somewhere huh...
Yasuke: I love this dude. I seriously do. You've made everything so simple and yet I was so engrossed in the reading... Also he's such a bro and you did his character justice. Also, that noble phantasm? A "hell created by Nobunaga"? Oh man, I loved that. Overall, this is such a fun dude. (AND HIS FACECLAIM THO. I WISH I COULD FIND THE WORDS TO DESCRIBE MY HAPPINESS.)
Lagertha: Yess, I miss our Shielder servants. You're on a roll aren't you, Royd? I'm only seeing quality coming from you lately. And this one is no different, truly! I love strong warriors, especially when they're women, so this one is right up my alley. The idea that her beasts are her shield is so cool as well! And I loved to pieces the idea of you putting a second NP, in the occasion she's summoned in an alternative class... And what a NP! What a character, really!
Adelin: I LOVE THIS MAN PLEASE LEMME PROTECC. Oh man, his personality already won me over... What can I say, gotta love those who are always armored with that dry, self-deprecating humor. (Also, I feel like he and Ciabhan would get along greatly hahaha.) Not only his abilities and Noble Phantasm were a blast to read and helped me to feel more of the character, but his lore is also so sad... I can definitely understand why he thinks he's such a failure.
I read a different version of the Ivar legend where he was born boneless because Ragnar broke a prophecy she gave him where he was supposed to wait a certain amount of time after their wedding before bedding her. But with figures like these, there's probably many different versions of the legend to choose from...
