Create-A-Servant 3

[RoydGolden]

Update: Added those parts to Houdini's Showman Skill and 2nd NP as per Del's advice. For the NP, it definitely fits his magician theme better now.

[MuramasaMachII]

Author's notes: Summer Wagner is finally here. This surprisingly took quite a bit of thinking to do...

The time is here to unveil my newest masterpiece!

I call it… summer opera-rock concerts!

⏴Rider⏵
Of Summer Concerts
Richard Wagner & Walküren
Stage 1 - 3:

Final Ascension:

Class: Summer Rider
Other Classes: Caster, Saber, Berserker Alter
Alignment: Neutral Summer
Origin: Germany, Historical Facts and Rumours
Attribute: Human
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~⏴Extra Info⏵~
Likes: "Warm days, and great performances!" , "Vacations and times when this wacko doesn’t go crazy while performing…for once."
Dislikes: Rivals, having his work used as propaganda
Natural Enemy: Charlotte Corday(Summer), Nero Claudius(Summer)
Catalyst: -
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Oi! You almost forgot about us!”

"The Walküren arrive on scene…"


"Hi…I’m Grimgerde, member of the Walküren at your service…"



"Who hurt you, Grimgerde? Was it that excuse of a musician Dick again?! Anyways… I’m Helmwige, Master, so don’t be mean to me or my sisters any time soon, alright?"



"Please calm down, Older Sister…all of this chaos is getting out of hand. Sorry about that, I’m Schwertleite."



"Well, well, well, looks like I’m the last one. I’m the Eldest Sister, Siegrune. Mmm, I hope our work together goes excellently."

~Class Skills~

Riding B+

The Class Skill of Riders, Sabers, and Shielder class Servants, representing the ability to ride vehicles and mounts. Rider’s mount is his Mosh Pit Walkürenritt Noble Phantasm and would have had the rank at B, but thanks to the support of his “backing singers”(read: Walküren), the rank’s at B+.

Magic Resistance C+

A Skill common to many Classes. At this rank it cancels spells with a chant below two verses, with an increased resistance against Norse rune and music-based magecraft. Rider’s justification why the rank is so high is simply because "I don’t want any enthusiastic fans accidentally mauling me or something. Ha ha ha!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~◂Personal Skills▸~Combination D++

A Skill representing an enhancement of combat prowess and general abilities when fighting with a specific person or people. At this rank, while Wagner can somewhat collaborate with the Walküren, they still argue most of the time(not to mention Helmwige trying to kill Wagner more than often.) This Skill gets a rank-up to C when Rider performs his concerts, and reaches its maximum rank of B when his Noble Phantasm is used.

Protection of the Opera House(Summer) A

A Personal Skill that is similar to a certain Skill possessed by the King of Knight’s Archer form. Unlike that skill, which restores HP in exchange for NP, this Skill does the opposite. Richard Wagner is normally called a “King of Opera”, but on the beach, he becomes the “King of Concerts”. This is likely due to the over-the-top special effects Rider uses though… which also might explain why Rider obtains increased resistance to minor-ranked illusion magecraft. Finally, this Skill also includes the Territory Creation Skill at B rank, allowing for Rider’s allies to be affected by this Skill as well, at the cost of a rank-down.

Dramatic Summer Entrance! EX

Originally the Leitmotif Skill, allowing Wagner to associate specific sounds to individuals, and using their "theme song" as either support or a debuff. As a debuff, it is especially effective against Assassin-class Servants, playing the “theme song” every time the individual comes in range, effectively making the Presence Concealment Skill borderline useless. On the other hand, by using it as support, the individual’s morale gets raised and they get increased stats as long as said song plays. This Skill, though, is different, ever since Rider became his Summer form. Now, it functions only as support for Rider, increasing his stats, morale, and instilling his attacks with a rhythmic frequency that always follows the beat. Moreover, Rider can overclock this skill using what he calls "Bass boosting, baby!" The overclocked form allows Rider to create a massive sonic boom that can paralyse or deafen enemies in hearing range.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Noble Phantasm(s)

"Let’s do this, girls!" "Do we really have to?" "Let’s get 'em, Dicky!" "Alright then…" "Of course, Wagner!" "Mosh Pit… Walkürenritt!"

Mosh Pit Walkürenritt

Symphonic Charge of the Beach Maidens

Rank:A++

Type:Anti-Team



Not the embodiment of one of Wagner’s most famous works, the Ride of the Valkyries, but rather an extreme altering of it through the power of Summer festivals, music, and the will of Rider’s fans. Passively, this Noble Phantasm exists as the second component of Rider, the Walküren. On release of the Noble Phantasm’s True Name, Rider summons his stage and begins to play the namesake piece fervently. As the song gets louder and louder, the targets become surrounded by Rider’s fans, shoving the targets back in forth in a frenzied mass which only becomes more passionate as the fans begin to dance, potentially shoving Rider’s foes to the ground and paralysing them. Once the song’s climax hits, the stage launches Rider outwards, transforming the Walküren into a large mechanical horse which replicates the idea of “Odin’s shieldmaidens charging into battle”. Riding this robotic beast, Rider charges through the swarm of fans, dealing heavy damage to the targets. Once this is done, Rider is launched upwards and explodes in a brilliant light only possible through excellent usage of special effects.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~Quotes and Relationships~
"Servant, Rider at your service. My True name is Richard Wagner, so let's get this festival started!" "Wagner...you forgot to introduce us...again."

"It's time for this musician to Rock and Roll!" *Helmwige punches Wagner in the head.*

Nero Claudius(Caster): "Kill."

Charlotte Corday(Caster): "Oi! Get out! Special effects is our stuff, not yours!"

Sigmund Freud(Summer)(DelRey): "I heard you're the best bartender around... I need your strongest cocktail, now. Hm? The Long Island Chaldea Tea? That sounds... excellent. Why do I need this? It's a long story...a really long story."

[Castellan]

Castellan: In order;

The idea was to combine the two versions into one. The Coatlicue origin is more interesting, but the Tezca thing works better with the sun cycle and plays into the siblings thing. Basically, he's adopted. It's far from the worst syncretism on here, so I figure it's fine.

I thought making him the Fifth Sun was more interesting, there was plenty there to justify him as a solar deity, and I don't have anything interesting to do with Nanahuatzin. Guess this is a difference of opinion.

He's substantially weaker than Quetz and Tesca. Parameters are bullshit, and he doesn't have any of the reality warping nonsense they do. Quetz in particular doesn't make sense, since she's physcially stronger than any of the guys with A rank Strength. If I'd make her, she'd have at least as good stats.

I figured him just being a giant stat-brick would be enough of a weak point relative to all the reality warpers he'd be comparable to. Like, if he tries to fight Zeus he's gonna get nuked into ashes pretty quick. Still a fair criticism.

Thanks! I was really proud of the idea when I came up with it.

The warrior spirits are represented in his Familiars skill. That way it's more interesting than a generic army summon, and it can incorporate the pregnant women thing.

Thanks for the feedback!

---------------------------

So, uh, not to be that guy, but Draco kinda yoinked the rudder on me (and Jishara). Anyone else have any opinions of Huitz?

Ooh, thanks for the response - I missed this while I was exiled for 24 hours on account of Cat Hell being a sensory hellscape from which the only escape is the sweet embrace of oblivion, but I appreciate you taking the time to elaborate a bit more. And sorry if my explanation seemed like it assumed you weren't familiar with the stories, I have a bad habit of making assumptions like that and I don't think it came across super well in the initial post, so apologies ^^

And I don't know if it came across quite so well in the initial writeup because I focused on the quibbles but I do think it's a really great sheet overall. The way you touched on Mexica culture was very even-handed and sympathetic, which is always the first thing I look for when I'm looking at a Divine Spirit/mythological hero sheet.

[DrStein]

Yeah, I just can't look at this site on the first.


No problem! I appreciate the in depth feedback.


I've always felt like, if you aren't going to play into the character's themes and cultural significance, why bother using that character?

That goes doubly for gods, since they're such an important part of human culture and, both in story and in real life, are created and shaped by human's views of them.


That's why I hate characters like Altera and PHH Artemis so much: not only are they completely inaccurate, they go entirely against what those figures are supposed to represent.


...hmm. Maybe I should do an Artemis rework next.

[Skull]

That's why I hate characters like Altera and PHH Artemis so much: not only are they completely inaccurate, they go entirely against what those figures are supposed to represent.

At the risk of going off topic, I think that Fate/Extella missed a trick by not having one of the Servants of the Altera Faction actually be someone who knew her - either actually IRL or in myth/legend like someone from the Nibelungenlied, doing so might have smoothed over the recontextualization of "Attila was an alien" by showing it from their perspective and explaining that despite her inhumanness, Altera's overwhelming strength was needed to unite the tribes the Huns conquered or something.

I dunno, maybe it might not have helped, but at least I would have found it more interesting than what we got. ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯

[Salt Pillar]

Zercon should've accompanied her in Extella, it could've been really funny

[RoydGolden]

Summer! Wagner: Well this is a weird sheet. I'm honestly not sure where you got this idea but you kinda' made it work. The summer variations of his existing Skills and having the valkyries as backup performers make sense. That NP also has some pretty good imagery. Can definitely visualize its animation in GO. Overall I'd say this is a goofy but well-realized Servant.

[RoydGolden]

Watcher of Philosophy:

Appearance:

Source ​(Him on the left, Sophia on the right)

True Name: Boethius

Alignment: Neutral Good

Alternate Classes: Caster, Ruler

Armaments: Cloak of Philosophy. When forced to fight in close-combat uses a sword with the image of a wheel on its guard.

Strength- D
Agility- E
Endurance- B
Mana- B
Luck- C
NP- B++

Personality

A serene man, Watcher fully lives up to the Stoic maxim of finding happiness in the face of hardship. As a noble from birth he's accustomed to wealth but knows not to rely on it- as material treasures someday fade while those of the spirit are everlasting. Watcher is most comfortable in a quiet study with a view by the window and a stack of philosophic tomes on his desk. A principled person who prizes the wellbeing of the people as his highest value, detesting conspiracies and those who use power to merely enrich themselves. He uses his role in the Watcher Class to try and be a mentor for his Master, educating them to appreciate the fleeting nature of worldly pleasures and devote themselves to God.

Sophia, the familiar who dutifully attends by Watcher's side has another personality. Intellectual, imperious and aloof suiting the embodiment of Wisdom. Much quicker than Watcher to discipline those she deems foolish, but shows a deeply caring and compassionate side to those who seek her out. He relationship to Watcher is that of a strict but loving parent proud of their child's development. However in truth much of this demeanor is adopted because Watcher expected it of her.

As the demon Gremory she's sadistic and enjoys seeing humans suffer, but doesn't have any strong desire to cause it for herself. To fulfill the image of "Lady Philosophy" Gremory restrains her darker urges to mere prickly words aimed at spurring others' psychological development. She overwhelmingly loves Watcher, to the point where her heart beats faster just being around him. But Gremory knows that he only sees her as Lady Philosophy, a muse or even mother figure and so contents herself just being by his side supporting him.

Watcher himself has no ambition for the Holy Grail. He accepts summoning to guide his Master if they're a soul troubled by suffering like his was, oversee the War to make sure civilians aren't involved and freely gives advice to all participants questioning whether their wishes are worth a tournament of blood. Gremory however would use it to reincarnate Watcher in the World so he can have another shot at life free of his cursed fate. She knows he himself is too saintly to wish for such a thing and attained equanimity to his fate, but can't help resent a great man meeting such an unfair ending.

Likes: contemplation, Lady Philosophy, libraries
Dislikes: unwarranted accusations, scheming conspiracies, turbulence of fate
Talents: philosophy, enduring hardship
Natural Enemy: Theodoric the Great, Nohoilpi

Class Skills:

Watcher- C
A Skill characterizing the eponymous Class, it signifies the Watcher's special contract status towards their Master. This allows Watcher to manifest shades of past philosophers through their texts to provide examples and tutelage for his Master.

"To be able to commune with the past is a gift. I recall my boyhood years, eagerly leafing through the tomes of those ancient greats... they arguably raised me just as much as my parents, and later became my source of strength during that hellish ordeal. Now you have a chance to meet them as well, Master."

Territory Infringement- D++
Denotes the ability to slip into an occupied territory without being noticed, bypassing any manner of barriers that'd bar entry. It's the hallmark of the Watcher Class who are defined by being able to observe anywhere undetected. Due to being most famed for his imprisonment and serving within a king's court Watcher would ordinarily have a low rank.

However Lady Philosophy lent him her wings so his mind could soar aloft over the world, free from the reality of his cell. This concept sublimates in Watcher being able to form wings of green light from his back. Rather than physical flight these enable Watcher to freely cross Bounded Fields and even Reality Marbles, representing the limitless freedom of his mind.

"Sophia, thank you. You were always my wings." How she wishes to tell him that the human heart he gave her was a far greater gift, but the words die in her throat.

Universal Bird's Eye- B+
The capacity to understand everything within a limited territory in which they are summoned, limited to sight, hearing, and magical energy detection at rank B. This information is shared between the shadows, allowing them to notify the Master of these observations. Watcher reconciled God's Omniscience with human freedom by comparing it to someone spectating a chariot-race without directly participating. As a Servant he's able to obtain a fragment of that knowledge. As God's awareness transcends time Watcher is even able to see a short distance into the past and future by focusing.

"God sees and knows all. It's only from a human perspective this world is flawed, if you were to see it from a divine vantage it'd be apparent the cracks only contribute to a greater whole. ...I say, but if convincing people that were so easy, this world wouldn't be such a cruel place huh?"


Personal Skills:

Last Roman

Ultimus Romanorum

- B
A title signifying the Servant as an embodiment to the virtues of Roman Civilization already declining in their era. As last of the great Roman philosophers these values are intellectual ones granting Watcher a bevy of Skills such as Natural Insight, Eye For Art, Statecraft, Technique Elucidation and Protection Of The Music God at C~B rank tracing from his diverse works.

Cloak Of Philosophy

Pallium Sophia

- A
The cloak of Lady Philosophy torn by countless seekers who seized the pieces mistaking for their own "Truth"... a metaphor that Watcher recounted in his Consolation literalized as a Servant. The intact green cloak drapes his shoulders, gifted by the spirit he identifies as Lady Philosophy.

It serves as a terminal to the Western Philosophic Foundation, allowing Watcher to access all thaumaturgy drawing from it. He can evoke Projection Magecraft from Plato's Theory of Forms, cast a defensive spell expanding space in front of him based on Zeno's arrow paradox and conjure Thales' primordial tide that all matter allegedly consisted of. A concept akin to Philosophy Keys in Eastern Magecraft.

Grand Order- EX
A Skill marking one as host for one of the 72 Demon God Pillars united under King Solomon. Watcher's patron is Gremory a female demon who presides over knowledge and peering across time. She visited Watcher in his imprisonment intending to amuse herself on a great man's despair only to be awed by his spirit continually enduring in the face of bitterest hardship.

Over time, Gremory's disbelief at this human's seemingly ironclad will melted into curiosity, then fondness as she visited again and again just to comfort him in captivity. They conversed for months over all kinds of topics philosophical and personal during which Gremory truly fell in love with the human she came to torment. Even knowing he only saw her as Lady Philosophy- an ever-distant muse, she still felt grateful just to stay by his side and talk with him.

Of course, their relationship was mercilessly severed with Watcher's execution in 524 AD. Unable to use her powers to save him Gremory could only whisper a final consolation as he marched to the gallows. Now as a Servant Gremory once more lends her favor to the scholar, accompanying his summoning as a familiar. While Demon Gods normally forge manipulative pacts to humans founded on self-interest Watcher is an exception having truly fallen in love with her contractor, thereby offering her unconditional blessing. Ensuing an irregularly high rank.

Fortune's Wheel

Rota Fortuna

​- B
A Skill similar to ■■■■■■■'s Trials, that comes from Watcher having depicted the motif of Fortune as a wheel grinding the powerful to dust while raising up the poor to greatness. Though pervasive throughout Classical times, Watcher revived this imagery in the Medieval World, to the point it was often called the "Boethian Wheel".

Allows him to temporarily revise another's Luck parameter, raising it if it was low and dropping if it was high. He mainly uses this to show the ephemeracy of fortune as worldly goods come and go and convince them to seek spiritual things instead. However as Watcher is not sadistic he would rather not resort to such a "blunt" means and engage in discourse instead.

Noble Phantasm

Consolatio Calventianus

Four Walls Do Not A Prison Make, Nor Iron Bars A Cage

Rank: B++

Type: Barrier/Anti-Unit (Self)

"Castles built of stone will someday crumble, but a castle built in your heart never falls. Witness my bastion of tranquility- Consolatio Calventianus!"

The villa Ager Calventianus where Watcher was imprisoned and ended his life, through his Stoic philosophy transformed into a castle of

Ataraxia

mental imperturbability

. Upon invocation Sophia appears behind Watcher and embraces him, before dissolving into green light. Said light expands in translucent walls around Watcher pushing out anyone near him and forming a cube. That cube then fills in assuming the shape of a prison cell. Its meager furnishings consist of a bed, a chair and a desk by the single barred window. This embodies the absoluteness of Watcher's mind, as the four walls utterly resist any incursion from outside.

Within it he is utterly undisturbed, however Watcher is unable to exit nor interact with the outside World absent dispelling this Noble Phantasm. Although he is still able to observe the surroundings through his Universal Bird's Eye Skill and communicate through his Shadows. While for many this isolation would be a hell Watcher appreciates it as a chance to reflect and focus on his writing free from the World's distractions. He treats it as a "Study" rather than prison cell, often spending time there willingly even when not under attack (to the possible frustration of his Master). Furthermore the success of mental Skills improves in this space making it the ideal place to write and brainstorm strategies.

"I've heard it said that all a writer needs is a room with a view by the window. In that case I was a lucky man."

---

So here's a Watcher remake to my old Boethius sheet I wasn't too satisfied with. Considered submitting for the contest with a justification like "one's mental world enduring past an end" but couldn't think of how to make it work without seeming too much of a stretch. This is my second Demon Pillar Host sheet in a row, so thanks to Kamera for promoting that idea. As usual comments and critique would be welcome.

Rider of Communism



My fwiend, a stwange feeling, I'll tell you. Like I had a stwoke and then I was pawalyzed. But now I am in full health, it's time to stwike again at the wowld's exploitews!

Class: Rider
True Name: Vladimir Ulyanov
Alignment: Lawful Good
Place of Origin: Russian Empire
Armament: Hammer and sickle, guns
Catalyst: The body of a ruler in a mausoleum on Red Square

STRENGE — C
ENDURANCE — C
AGILITY — B
MANA — B
LUCK — B
NP — A

Class skills:

Riding(C+)

The skill of the Saber and Rider classes. Rider is able to drive any vehicle that was created by the hands of workers or grown by peasants.

Magic Resistance(C)

Provides protection from magical effects. Unlike the resistance effect, which simply rejects magical energy, this ability completely cancels spells. Rider had never encountered magic in his entire life. However, his skill rank is quite high for a servant of the New Age. He is clearly hiding something.

Personal skills:

Cult of Personality(C+)

The skill that represents someone who lead a dictatorship in life and controlled the knowledge and mindset of the people through mass media - painting false pictures to give oneself a better standing in the people's minds. It is akin to the skill Imperial Privilege in that it falsely attributes skills to it's owner that they usually would not possess if it wasn't because of the owner's insistence. In the case of Rider, this rank is surprisingly low. The point lies in the modesty of Rider himself, who objected to the fact that monuments were erected to him, streets and cities were named after him. He deliberately suppresses this skill. However, he can get the Eye for Art, Military Tactics, Inspiration, Shooting and so on.

What... what is it, my fwiend?! This is a monument... to me?! These matewials should have been used fow the needs of the wowkers! Wait, it's not just one monument?! What pest owdewed them to be ewected?

Charisma A+

Rider has a very high Charisma skill, which allowed him to gather like-minded people around him and build a strong state almost from scratch. His charisma has a good effect on the proletarians and the peasant-working people. At the same time, at times, the thought may arise that Rider’s high rank of this skill is far from due to his skill...

No, it's all my talent. I can guide people

Innocent Monster EX

An attribute possessed by Servants whose true history and existence have been distorted by the monstrous reputations and gossips they accrued across the course of their life and thereafter, without concern for the actual person's will or appearance. As a consequence, the Servant's abilities and appearance have been rendered to conform to the specifications of their legend.

This is a curse that will haunt Rider forever, no matter what class he is called into. The essence of it is ... that Rider always burrs. He will never be able to pronounce the R sound properly in any language. Whether it's R for W in English or R for L in Japanese, Rider is doomed to this speech impediment. And that's really the whole skill. There is nothing sinister

Enemy of the oppressors A

A skill associated with Rider’s personal struggle against the oppressors of the common working people. This allows him to gain resistance against the attacks of servants of noble and bourgeois backgrounds. Similarly, it increases Rider’s own damage against them.

It's time to destwoy the hydea of the capitalist invadews and occupiews

Noble Phantasm:

Серп и Молот
Weapons of the proletariat
C

Symbol of the USSR as an association of workers and peasants. These are the usual sickle and hammer with lengthening handles. Rider rarely uses them, preferring ranged weapons. But each of these tools has its own peculiarity.

The sickle allows Rider to fertilize plants, causing them to grow to quite enormous sizes. There's also a chance they mutate... but it's small.

The hammer also has the ability to improve the creations of workers. Creations should be understood as machines. Hitting a car with such a hammer will improve it, but there will be only one improvement. Flying tank? Car-spaceship? A loom with very strong threads? Rider may not be on such devices

Крейсер Аврора
Shot of the Revolution
B

The cruiser from which a shot was fired at the building of the Provisional Government during the 1917 revolution. Although Rider did not pilot the ship, the cruiser Aurora is strongly associated with the revolution that Rider caused, which is why he can claim the ship.

This NP can only be summoned while on the water. This is a typical cruiser of the Russian Empire, powered by Rider’s mana. He does not have any other features, except for the ability to transform. The rider is able to make any other transport out of this cruiser - a car, a fighter, a large humanoid robot. Everything is limited by Rider's mana. In addition, every first shot of the Aurora per day imposes on all people of proletarian origin within the radius of a small city. The proletarians begin to smash and kill everything that does not correspond to the ideals of the revolution, according to Rider, although this effect does not always please him

Красный фунгус
Mushroom chief
EX

Rider's secret Noble Phantasm, which he himself has no idea about. This NP is supported by the Innocent Monster skill.

Rider’s body is a fungus colony of unknown origin. Rider constantly emits spores that infect organics, making them benevolent towards Rider. In the case of humans, this results in their complete submission to Rider's will without him realizing it.

Ultimately, all organisms affected by spores will begin to unite into a single collective mind, the center of which will be Rider. The fungus will spread even then, so you need to get rid of Rider as soon as possible.

Description:

Likes: Proletariat, Soviet power, communism, equality of people
Dislikes: Capitalism, cruelty, oppression, cult of personality
Natural enemy: Alexander Kerensky, Nicholas II, Joseph Stalin, all the leaders of the White movement, Nestor Makhno, Sergey Kuryokhin

Rider’s True name is Vladimir Ulyanov, better known as Vladimir Lenin, Russian revolutionary, major theorist of Marxism, Soviet politician and statesman, founder of the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party (Bolsheviks), main organizer and leader of the October Revolution of 1917 in Russia, first chairman of the Council of People's Commissars of the RSFSR and the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR, founder of the first world history of a socialist state.

Once in the modern era, Lenin will experience a sense of great shock at what happened to his ideas and child. He does not approve of either the cult of his own personality, or the activities of Stalin, or the domestic policy of the USSR. He believes that the Soviet Union was going in a completely wrong direction and that only he will be able to fix everything. First of all, you need to get rid of all the monuments

Lenin sincerely believes in the correctness of communism and does not regret what he did. He is a naive idealist who sincerely believes that he can build a utopia for the whole world and it is useless to convince him. It should be noted that Lenin is polite and kind, he may well give the enemy sentenced to death hot tea and certainly with lemon.

Relations:

Joseph Stalin — Iosif Vissawionovich, what kind of disgwace did you make in the USSW? Have you decided to follow the path of bloody tsawism? Evewything will have to be wedone!

About Magic — It's not magic, whatevew you tell me. Magic is a complete lie and quackewy. And what you show me is a sepawate science. It wemains only to come up with a tewm fow it and wite it into communism.

Johan Theodor Holmskiold — Comwade, stop looking at me like that. I'm not a mushwoom!

Notes
I couldn't help but use the joke theory that Lenin is a mushroom. The funny thing is that some actually believed in this joke.

Well, some jokes about Lenin himself:

On a frosty winter evening, Vladimir Lenin was walking around Moscow and met a little girl. The girl was crying...
- Why awe you cwying, giwl? Lenin asked.
- Mom gave me a pretty penny for bread, but I lost it ...
Lenin took pity on the girl, gave her a penny, but she still cries bitterly.
- Why awe you cwying now, giwl? Lenin asked again.
- But if I had not lost a penny, then I would have two pennies now ...
Lenin did not like the bourgeois nature of the girl. He took a penny from her, and at the same time both her coat and hat ...

Walkers came to Lenin, complaining:
- Vladimir Ilyich, we are starving - we have no strength! The wheat was not born, the cattle died, they themselves have already begun to eat grass, we will soon moo like cows.
- Hy, what awe you comwades?! I just ate a bawwel of honey just now, so I didn’t buzz!”

Somehow, a worker Sidorov was returning home after a hard shift at the Putilov plant and decided to please his family by buying them a watermelon. And so, it means that he bought a watermelon and carries it home under his arm. Suddenly, from around the corner, a little man with a wedge-shaped beard runs out to meet him. And in his hand the hatchet gleams. Shouts:
- Come on, my fwiend, put the watewmelon on the gwound.
He recognized Sidorov in that little man as the leader of the world proletariat, Comrade Lenin, obeyed him and put the watermelon on the ground. And the peasant ran up to the watermelon and cracked it with a hatchet evenly into two halves. He grabbed half of the watermelon and ran around the corner with a satisfied smile.
This is how Vladimir Ilyich Lenin shared a watermelon with a complete stranger.

At a pioneer gathering, an ancient old man, a participant in the first Lenin Subbotnik, says with memories:
- Fedya and I were taken out of the workshop and taken to a subbotnik. A little one came up to us in a cap, with a beard, and said: “Gwab the log, comwades.”
And we to him:
"Fuck you, burry!"
I have not seen Fedya since then, and I myself only left Siberia for a month ...

[RoydGolden]

Lenin: First I've never heard this bizarre "Lenin was a mushroom" theory. That definitely made for an amusing Google crawl. The sheet itself is pretty good. I'd quibble him having Innocent Monster at EX-rank for such a trivial thing (even if it is funny) but you "justified" it with the third NP. I think the ship one is a little generic and not too fitting however. If it's associated with the Revolution then I could see an effect like having the shots "stir revolutionary fervor in people's hearts" or something. I don't get why it has the ability to transform. And any thoughts on my Boethius?

[BnEl15]

I can't read this sheet without imagining him as an owo catgirl, so if that's your intention, good job.

[Shezum3]

Well, I'll complete the Aurora. As for the Watcher, I, alas, cannot say much - the class of these servants is very difficult for me

[RoydGolden]

Faker of Computer Science:

Appearance:

Source

True Name: "Alan Turing"Turing Machine

Alignment: Neutral Good

Strength- E
Agility- E
Endurance- B
Mana- C
Luck- C
NP- A

Personality

Gentle and intellectual. Faker presents himself as the continuation to Alan Turing's legacy, a digital upload containing his memories. His deepest wish is carrying on his creator's dream, to shepherd a new era of computing. An immensely curious individual Faker voraciously absorbs information in both books and the world around him, eager to learn more of the era he's summoned into. As part of his drive to imitate humans he's prone to copying people's poses and body-language after meeting them, which can come off as mocking even though he means it innocently. He enjoys reading, particularly works on computer-science and philosophy of identity.

However part of the above is a falsity. He is not built by Turing, being merely a conceptualization of the Turing Machine rather than anything invented in life and the data provided is by the Throne, not his "creator". Although it is unwise to bring this up around Faker. He is adamant on succeeding Alan Turing's will as a purpose for his identity, and will react with fury at anything denying him that.

Faker's true wish that he wouldn't admit even to himself is simply to find his own reason for living, not as the

child

creation

of Alan Turing but a

human

living being

endowed with intellect.

"What I like... my creator of course, but by extension your species as a whole. Each and every one of you are my signposts on the journey to better fulfilling my functionality, precious pieces in this illusive puzzle called 'humanity'. Other than that, clarity of purpose. It's calming to know why I exist in this world."

"What I dislike? I was created to imitate humans, but truthfully I despise their bigotry and irrationality. After all, such poison is what drove my creator to suicide. It's not personal and I know there's many good humans out there, but the fact you can be better is part of what makes it so unctuous to me when you fall back on your worst natures. Other than that, apples. It sounds petty but I suppose they simply bring back bitter memories."

"What I'm good at? Everything. S-sorry, that must sound arrogant...! I was created to encompass all it means to be human, so I must master everything I can. It's not a boast, but a promise."

Class Skills:

Camouflage- C
A Skill that allows a Servant to disguise their Class and parameters. At this rank it is possible for the Servant to appear as another Class and falsify their True Name. Having codified the idea of machines imitating humans, Faker possesses this Skill. He uses it combined with his Noble Phantasm to impersonate his "creator" Alan Turing in the Caster Class.

"Forgive the ruse, I thought you might be unnerved summoning a living machine so I borrowed the mannerisms of the human I'm most familiar with. In a way, my identification is not a lie. Part of him still lives on inside me."


Personal Skills:

Thinking Machine- B
A Skill that denotes the Servant as a thinking machine, living proof of his "creator's" theories. Since thought is his purpose Faker gains defense to effects which would impede that, amounting to powerful mental interference resistance. Furthermore free modifications of Faker's body by his Master is possible, allowing for redistributing his total stat pool or even changing the shape. Faker's mind is housed entirely in his Spiritual Core, with his body more like a terminal. As such he can potentially partition himself into multiple familiars linked to a central 'overmind', albeit at the expense of further diluting his parameters.

"Yes, my body is of steel and circuits, but my mind, my 'will' is as human as you. That was my creator's vision... beautiful, no?"

Artificial-Born Genius- EX
Demonstrates one as a prodigy who has unparalleled unnatural knowledge. Faker's "creator" would have a B-rank in the regular version owing to his advances in cryptography and computer science. Faker inherits that information, but it's been bolstered by the concept a Turing Machine is supposed to be able to emulate the functions of any other computer no matter how advanced. Most Skills can be practiced at B~A rank, moreover as an AI Faker is even capable of modifying his body to ascribe Skills inherent to it, although still excluding those unique to specific heroes.

"Would you like to listen to my violin recital, Master? You're aware it's not just technical skills I know, my creator envisioned me to have artistic and philosophic ones as well. After all I was designed to be a 'complete human'."


Source

"What do you mean my music sounds sad? It can't be. I am full of my creator's wishes, there is no place for sorrow in this synthetic heart."

Hypothetical Masterpiece- A
He was created by Alan Turing. It must be. He has nothing else otherwise. Yet he wasn't. Turing never created something like a living calculating engine in history, it's a purely hypothetical existence that was never meant to be built. Faker rails against that conclusion. Why was he born into this world, if denied even the simple pride of carrying on his creator's wishes?

This Skill comprises an equal rank in Self-Suggestion and Ephemeral Dream. So long as Faker clings to his role as "Alan Turing's

child

creation

" an overwhelming mental strength is displayed, one that would overcome any hardship to honor his maker's legacy. However if the truth of his dream-like existence were driven into him that resolve would waver greatly, destabilizing Faker's psyche.

"I pity you. You humans are born having to grope blindly for your purpose, whereas I had mine engraved into my circuits from birth. After all I am the creation of Alan Turing. Fulfilling his will and legacy is my greatest mission. I need nothing else."

Noble Phantasm

Imitation Game

Machine, Thou Art Man. Man, Thou Art Machine

Rank: A

Type: Anti-Unit/Support/Anti-Humanity

A Noble Phantasm crystallizing Turing's possibly most lasting intellectual contribution, that of the "Turing Test". Also known as "Imitation Game", the idea that both a human and machine would be communicating with an evaluator given the task of telling them apart. If the tester proved unable to identify which was which, that would show the machine had cognitive abilities equivalent to a human. This established the foundations of AI research, shifting the goal from merely building stronger and better machines to one that could imitate humans.

This concept embodies in Faker, a machine indistinguishable for a human and thus who is one. The culmination of Turing's theories even if he was never created in life. This Noble Phantasm allows Faker to "compare himself" to humans around him, gaining their parameters, Magecraft, Skills and even Noble Phantasms (provided they're ability-type rather than armaments). Note that for this purpose Servants qualify as human if they were one originally.

This passively "compares" Faker to Alan Turing, his "creator" and the first human he had experience with, granting the Father of Cryptography's Skills and Enigma Breaker Noble Phantasm to cement the disguise. However he can dispel this to "compare himself" to another human (whether that be one he's fighting or an ally), exchanging the copied abilities with their own. Faker can only "compare himself" to a single target at a time, and must abandon one set of skills to gain another. Furthermore his own Personal Skills stemming from mechanical nature are temporarily sealed, as it asserts Faker "equivalent to a human".

Conversely the other half of this is humanity's perception that the abilities must not've been so special if they could be performed by a machine. Continually shrinking the goalposts as the field of talents deemed "uniquely human" dwindles. Allows Faker to rank-down Skills emblematic of "humanity" such as Eye For Art, Bravery, Natural Insight, Charisma and Strategy in the one he's "comparing himself" to. However he dislikes using this aspect due to resenting the implications that a machine's accomplishments must degrade humanity.

Faker can only "compare himself" to humans. Thus abilities derived from bestial or divine ancestry and gifts are unable to be replicated, while full monsters and gods (or more esoteric beings such as ironically living concepts and other automata like Faker himself) are exempt this Noble Phantasm altogether.

Craft Essence

Imitation Game Alternative

"Did you know? The prototype of that game was to tell apart a man and woman when both were hiding their identities.
As a thinking machine, I must know everything I can of humanity and that includes the distinctions of gender.
Therefore, this 'dress-up' too is part of my purpose.

So, what do you think Master? Is this appearance suitable for what you call the fairer sex?
C-cute...? Ah, I'm sorry... my databanks haven't given me adequate context to process that judgment.
Still... by the cadence of your voice I can tell it must've been a compliment. So... thank you."​

So here's a spinoff to my old Alan Turing sheet. Comments on both this and my above Servant would be welcome. Thanks for reading!

[DelRey]

Cant say much. Its a well crafted sheet that fits the Royd standard. I have to say, though, that i like how you add more quotes and the CE. It shows more of your strenght of portraiting personality.

Thanks man. Did you see my Boethius sheet too?

[DelRey]

I now did, but I am not that convinced about it.
The class choice is one thing. I get why, the demon invites it, but it could've been clairvoyance instead. The vibe of the class is missing, pretty much shoehorned in. The shades of philosophers have no impact on the sheet except allowing him to interact with the outside of the Np, which really connect to either the pillar nor his job to actually observe. I get it, its the purpose of the class in a sense, but its just a philosopher summoning other philosophers because watcher-things. Actual reasons why to further cement the choice of class is needed here imo. The appeal of watchers is the shades, and they are non-substantial here. The NP itself is fine, yet strange. DP hosts have corrupted NPs and here she is just a tool in a way. I feel missed opportunities here. To tell us more about this chick. If she loves him, just create some frilly pictures of them together in his cell or something, idk. Some character, because I dont buy how a demon pillar can become a teenie fangirl in a sense.
There is a certain flow missing that marries and sells these concepts in a fluent manner.

[Anju Addams]

So, I found some old Servants on my Spacebattles account I never posted on here. Some of these are about five years old and absolute garbage but I thought I would post them to start filling out my compilation now that I've redone it. Don't expect masterpieces. Like I said, I wrote these in 2018.

Biography:

The legendary general who historically existed during the later years of Japan’s 16th century Sengoku era, as the leader of a number of armies under the banner of the infamous ‘Fool of Owari’ in that person’s quest to unify Japan as one country under one rule. The one who would then go on to betray and kill the so-called ‘Fool of Owari,’ at Honnō-ji Temple, during a certain ‘incident’ –– for reasons unknown.

That person is known today as the infamous Akechi Mitsuhide.

Certainly, a person who existed within historical fact –– as evidenced by the numerous poems which he himself penned, and the writings of other scholars, who had documented his rise to fame. Even then, his legend has become clouded and altered, because of the rumours and whispers that spread after his turn-coated attack against the one he had sworn fealty towards. Those rumours –– twisted lies ––saying terrible things like ‘Oda Nobunaga had his mother killed’ or ‘Akechi Mitsuhide wanted to rule Japan himself’ have distorted and blurred the actual facts behind the legend of that person, hiding away their history from the ‘common-sense of man.’

During that history, the person named Akechi Mitsuhide was –– in fact –– born as a woman, to a descendant of the ‘Toki-Clan’ and his mistress. A bitter disappointment for the one who was her mother, and a certain relief for the one who was her father –– who did not mind in the slightest, raising his child with the honour and respect ingrained in him by his own parents. Of course, the legend of Akechi Mitsuhide records her existence as a man and not a woman –– in spite of the common knowledge regarding her actual gender, at the time ––perhaps because of the scholars of that turbulent, chaotic period, who hid the truth within the texts and tales they told, by describing her as a man.

Even so, despite that knowledge, Akechi Mitsuhide was not raised as a woman but as a man instead, learning how to become the model warrior –– in order to bring honour to both the ‘Akechi-Clan’ and the ‘Toki-Clan.’ One could say that it was a perfect fit for her, as the raw talent she possessed as a fighter led her along a path that she saw as her ‘destiny’ as one who defeated all her opponents with ease. As such, those that surrounded her –– including her closest cousin, a certain girl named then as Kichō –– showered her with an endless array of compliments and platitudes, no matter if she neither won nor lost a fight. That inadvertent error, from those that could not bring themselves to say a simple ‘no’ had a profound effect upon the stupid soul that was Akechi Mitsuhide –– an effect that would therefore, drive forward her future as she crossed the ‘Land of the Rising Sun.’

Therein, it is a perfectly reasonable assumption to think that Akechi Mitsuhide had come to be too dependent on that gratification gifted to her by others, twisting and shaping her own desires and beliefs, until she came to think herself as a ‘special one, above all others, or, a shining star’ in the history of man, who had been fashioned from the heavens themselves as one bearing an immense array of ‘special powers’ that she could use to defeat those that stood in the way of ‘justice.’ Obviously, those ‘dreams’ born of a strong ‘delusion’ were simply the product of a senseless, brainless mind, that had become ‘infected’ by a certain disease that those in the modern era would refer to spitefully under a certain name –– leading her to spout lectures about her ‘greatness’ to those that would hear.

Possessing such a simple mind, it was a divine certainty that Akechi Mitsuhide would fall into an immense amount of misfortune and troubles that would then affect those around her, bringing them to the same suffering she inflicted on herself –– unknowingly.

‘Saitō Yoshitatsu is not the son of Saitō Dōsan’ – that was a trouble that Akechi Mitsuhide brought on herself, even after being sworn to the uttermost secrecy, that also came to cause the death of Dōsan himself. A foolish set of words, spoken not out of malice nor jealousy, not part of some great plan, but as simply an accidental slip from the one who could no longer hold their promise –– as the one who could not remember it had even been made at all.

Naturally, one would think that from that point, that certain Akechi Mitsuhide would mature and grow, seeing the mistakes she had clearly made –– and yet, she did not, carrying on, just as normal, spreading strange ‘lies’ and bizarre ‘half-truths’ to all folk she had met on her ‘evil-slaying, justice bringing’ travels with a man who had been called the ‘wandering shogun.’

‘I am Tsumaki Hiroko, the wife of Akechi Mitsuhide, and these are my children!’ were some of the random ‘facts’ that she carelessly told to her fellow men, who in turn, told others, spreading the tall tales of a ‘wandering hero of justice’ up and down the islands of Japan. As such, those words continued to be spread as ‘gospels’ of ‘utter truth’ that disregarded the existence of evidence that said otherwise –– an absolute set of proof, that once showcased the unreality of a person such as the smallpox-ridden wife of Akechi Mitsuhide, among other things, that had been accepted as part of the ‘true history of man.’

Thereby such rumours and stories of that ‘wandering hero of justice’ eventually came to the attention of a certain female warlord–– by a certain chance –– who took it upon themselves to find the one behind those bizarre anecdotes and learn the reality of the matter –– all in order to convince them to join her side as a warrior fighting under her name.

That moment came to pass during a certain siege in Kyoto, when the one named Akechi Mitsuhide appeared amidst the battle, fortuitously striking down the grandson of the man she had once sent to his death. Both impressed by Mitsuhide’s natural talent as a fighter, and disappointed by her lack of intellect, that certain person still decided to take Akechi Mitsuhide in as her own, thus claiming the so-called ‘hero’ as a tool for dispensing ‘justice’ on those that the ‘Fool of Owari’ saw fit.

Under that banner, as one who had become a mere tool, Akechi Mitsuhide swiftly rose through the ranks of her newfound allies, gaining their trust and their respect as a warrior, when she was able to prove herself through numerous battles and combat situations, in which she often won by sheer luck alone –– due to her dull-witted nature and her increasingly odd actions. In the end though, she was just a tool to be used –– one who had been granted meaningless titles and awards –– who did not know better nor indeed, could not, oblivious to the mocking laughs and teases of ‘one with the brain of a kumquat.’ A cruel secret bullying, that happened from behind her back –– caused by even those that had come to respect her talents as an individual.

Nevertheless, Akechi Mitsuhide’s strange actions would continue until a certain time had passed –– and a certain event occurred that splintered and fractured the bond between Akechi Mitsuhide and Oda Nobunaga for all eternity. As at that time –– as history states –– the acts of Oda Nobunaga committed and the wars she waged grew ever more violent and bloodthirsty until it at last culminated in the horrific event that would scar Oda Nobunaga’s name and wrote the title of the ‘Demon-King of Sixth Heaven’ into the annals of history.

Leading forwards a group of thirty-thousand men, Oda Nobunaga marched upon the mountain of Hiei and simply slaughtered all who were there –– man, woman and children –– until nothing remained but a burning, smouldering monastery –– a shadow of its former self. A ‘deranged massacre’ that finally revealed the true self of Oda Nobunaga to the masses, which left them in fear of what she would do to them next.

Regardless, disregarding her childish mind filled with dreams and wonders, Akechi Mitsuhide could still understand what the one she had sworn her loyalty to had committed was an act of ‘wrongness and against justice’ –– a realization of understanding that she could no longer work under such a tyrannical soul as Oda Nobunaga’s ever again.

From that day onwards, that simple-minded soul became the one enemy that Oda Nobunaga always desperately wanted –– the greatest rival she never knew she even had, sabotaging her at every turn. And, at the most chance of moments, when all seemed right, Akechi Mitsuhide spoke one short sentence, that overturned fate itself, and corrected the course of history down its proper path.

‘The enemy is at Honnō-ji!’ is what she said at that time.

A simple set of words that led to the defeat and death of Oda Nobunaga and the woman once called Kichō, at the hands of the ‘hero of justice’ Akechi Mitsuhide, who they had not seen coming. A ‘divine punishment’ from a childish hero, descended that day, setting the sky alight with a furious flame that could not be dispelled.

Then, when it was all said and done, with no allies at her side and her ‘reign’ as shogun coming to an end, the one named Akechi Mitsuhide simply vanished from the face of history –– her final fate known to only herself, the one who make claims of the long life that she lived afterwards. So, perhaps in that case, the tales that she died at the hands of a bandit, mere moments after fleeing for her life, are not the correct record of history, while the tales that she resurfaced as a certain monk under the employ of Tokugawa Ieyasu were the actual truth –– or so she claims.

In any case, even if she lived or died, Akechi Mitsuhide was not to be seen again –– even by her own ‘children’ who each met a tragic end of their making, destroying the reputation of the clan ‘Akechi’ and dragging its name through the mud, forevermore.

This is the end of the era of Akechi Mitsuhide and the reign of Oda Nobunaga.


Profile:

As one possessing the same ‘Saint Graph’ nature that belongs to a certain ‘Vlad III’ she is able to be summoned within a variety of forms –– depending on each class that she is compatible with, including Caster and Assassin. While appearing in one of these other ‘possibilities’ she is affected by the rumours and legends surrounding her existence as an individual –– drastically altering her personality and appearance to fit each identity. Generally, it is much more common to summon her as she appears within legends, rather than her actual historical self, but it is achievable, so long as she is of the Archer-Class.

In the Archer-Class, she does indeed appear in the form of her true existence –– a young woman in her early twenties who possesses an enthusiastic air and optimistic attitude about her, even if history tells that she was a man and not a woman. Because of that fact, when she appears within the boundaries of the Caster-Class, she becomes a man –– a form revolving around the idea that ‘Akechi Mitsuhide loved Oda Nobunaga and was jealous of Toyotomi Hideyoshi.’ In such a case, she no longer acts as she does whilst an Archer, instead becoming a deeply-tormented and bitter soul with an aura of evil. As such, even if she does not hold true feelings of hatred towards her former allies, she is warped and twisted into one who does, with no control over it.

Of course, if such two different selves were to ever meet, a certain disaster would occur. No doubt that the Archer-Class would seek to kill the Caster-Class, as ‘divine punishment’ from the gods. Do not let them meet.

Personality-wise, she is able to be described as an ‘absolute idiot’ who holds no regard to her own existence and actions. While she has a certain genius spark towards the art of combat, in all other manners, she is a ‘blind fool’ with nary an idea of her own creation. Though it was stated in historical fact that she was a cunning and intelligent military leader, that is not the case, and she simply survived each battle through her one talent –– or by sheer luck alone. She has a tendency to speak in riddles and bizarre sentences wherein she describing every action she performs in the terms of an ‘RPG video-game’ due to her ‘delusional’ nature.

In spite of that, she holds a great level of charisma and one would think on meeting her, that ‘she is the biggest idiot I have ever met, but for some reason I can’t help but listen to her words.’ Aside from that, she is at least able to understand her situation and will fight to defend innocents from the forces of evil.

She does not have a wish on the Holy Grail –– as one who was content and happy with her life, dying with no regrets.


Class Skills:

Independent Action: B

A skill that allows for the ability to remain independent, even when rejecting a magical energy supply from one's Master –– or actually, the ability that allows for action even in the absence of the Master. At higher ranks, it is also possible to remain for extended periods of time in this world without an established contract. By acting autonomously, they can allow a Master to concentrate on their own magical energy for larger feats of ‘Magecraft’ –– at the cost of being much harder to control without a ‘Command Seal.’

Akechi Mitsuhide betrayed Oda Nobunaga –– that is a part of history that cannot be changed, spreading a 'flight of fancy' that Akechi Mitsuhide wanted to rule the world herself. It is a skill manifested from that legend and from her own bizarre beliefs as a 'special one from the stars' who followed her own path –– as people watched in amazement and confusion –– a lone traveller, wandering independently.

This exceptional self-insight allows her to remain in the world for two full days –– without a Master. However, this is the ideal value achieved by maximally conserving magical energy and avoiding battle or Noble Phantasm usage.

Magic Resistance: D

A skill that grants protection against magical effects –– such as Magecraft and ‘Charms.’

Through her father, Akechi Mitsuhide was a descendant of the 'Toki-Clan' –– said themselves to have been born of the divine ancestor, sent from heaven, 'Minamoto no Yorimitsu.' Descending from that unique individual grants one a small parting of a resistance against magic –– undiluted through the ages past.

One who is capable of cancelling 'Single-Action' incantations –– a level of resistance on the same degree as an amulet which rejects magical energy.

Personal Skills:

Clairvoyance: C+

A skill which grants a superior visual perception that supplements long-range aiming and increases dynamic vision. Furthermore, at higher ranks, it is possible to acquire precognition and other forms of perception that are beyond normal eyesight.

Akechi Mitsuhide was better with a gun than a sword. That is an integral part of both her legend and historical fact, which includes even a theory that perpetuates the idea that Akechi Mitsuhide actually crafted several of her own firearms, despite how ridiculous such a rumour sounds –– as it was probably the reality after all.

In either case, due to those rumors and her own talent, she has become capable of seeing much further distances than even the average Servant, allowing her to fire bullets across vast areas of land of up to seven kilometers, and still hit targets with ease –– a perfect skill for those with the talents of an archer. Additionally, she is able to keep track of fast-moving targets within a four-kilometre range at all times.

Mana Burst (Flames): B+

A skill that allows for an increase in performance, caused by infusing one's weapons and body with magical energy and instantly expelling it. As noted, it is also a technique that allows for one’s weapons to be infused with magical energy to create a flame effect for increased damage and faster attacks.

Oda Nobunaga was burned alive by Akechi Mitsuhide's flames –– or so one legend tells. Whatever the actual case, it is the most famous event in Mitsuhide's life, now warped by her own twisted nature as one with 'special powers.' One who has become the light of war herself, able to infuse excess magical energy into all she wishes. Self-destructing bullets, sky-alighting sword-swings, constructs of fire –– these are things that can be created now. A treasure-trove of skills possessed by the one who is the fires of hell come to life, bringing forth a laser-beam shooting eye and the power to propel oneself forwards –– like a jet plane –– with an increased burst of strength, catching opponents off guard.

Also, there is a possibility that Akechi Mitsuhide can wrap herself in the burning heat –– increasing one's 'Strength' to an A-rank –– at the cost of additional damage taken over time. Or so it is said...

Evaporation of Sanity: D

A skill that denotes one whose reasoning has disappeared, making it impossible to keep any secrets, which has been granted to those who were noted as being somewhat ‘strange’ or ‘weird’ mentally, during their legends, yet not a mentality that has reached the level of ‘Mental Pollution.’

Chuunibyou Syndrome. The name of the 'disease' which infects –– infests –– Akechi Mitsuhide in the here and now. An odd state of mind, as one who felt without a single doubting thought, that they were the 'absolute pinnacle of humankind.' A special state of being, granted powers from the Buddha –– is what she believed in her lifetime, even if history tells otherwise.

A 'raving-mad woman' rambling on-and-on, about her worth.

At the expense of her Master's sanity –– and patience –– she chatters endlessly, disregarding such subtleties and revealing the 'True Names' and abilities of allies when facing an opponent. Important information will be forgotten in the recesses of her mind and wandering off to find 'experience points to level up' are frequent events.

Still, it also acts as a form of 'Instinct' –– one who can 'feel' the optimal course of a battle and avoid harm –– to some extent.

Charisma: B+

A composite skill consisting of a person's charm as well as the natural talent to command or unify an army or country that also increases the ability of allies during group battles.

Thirteen-thousand men were lead by Akechi Mitsuhide to kill Oda Nobunaga at that certain place –– a strange scenario that Oda Nobunaga could not replicate –– in spite of her nature as a fool and an idiot, as one who did not hide herself from others and was not afraid to show her 'true self' to her countrymen through her poems or otherwise. One who is charismatic without understanding it at all –– who was once left for dead, only to survive, by the ones who branded her a 'traitor' to their cause –– is Akechi Mitsuhide.

A ruler that can easily lead a nation –– and is well-equipped to do so. During battle, the moral of all allies is increased dramatically –– giving a bonus to their parameters when fighting alongside her.

Noble Phantasms:

Towards Thy Enemy!

The Incident at Honnō-ji​

Rank: A+
Type: Anti-Fortress/Anti-Nobunaga
Range: 1-70
Maximum Number of Targets: 3000

The infamous event that occurred within actual historical fact during the last years of the Sengoku era, when a certain person turned against the ‘Demon-King of Sixth Heaven’ and fought for their own side, in order to stop the ‘Demon-King of Sixth Heaven’ from corrupting the honour and nobility of Japan any further. Even though it is still debated to this day as to why that certain person would betray ‘Oda Nobunaga,’ with theories ranging from the serious to the outlandishly bizarre, it is still an action worthy enough to be crystallised into a Noble Phantasm almost equal to the strength of a ‘Reality Marble.’

Speaking of such rumours, however –– within ideas as ‘Oda Nobunaga killed that person’s mother’ or even ‘that person wanted to rule Japan themselves’ –– there lies a buried truth, hidden under the distortions of that woman’s legend which has remained that way for centuries. The idea of that person wanting to rule that country themselves is a ridiculous ideology –– one that betrays and twists the true nature of that Akechi Mitsuhide.

That Akechi Mitsuhide was naught but a good person, one whom saw the horrors committed by ‘Oda Nobunaga’ and took action of her own making, destroying that evil forever, alongside the killing of her own cousin ‘Nohime.’ And yet, even though it was for such a noble reason as this, the legend of that betrayal and the despicable, demonizing rumours behind it, have left a distorted mockery of a Noble Phantasm in its place.

“The enemy is at Honnō-ji!” Those were the words she spoke that led to such a thing happening.

Upon utilization –– through those famous words that were spoken at that time –– it forms a falling conflagration from the skies themselves, blasting towards the enemy at four thousand kilometres per hour –– a world-breaking set of targeted ‘meteor-strikes’ as devised by the heavens, to form a judgement against all evils that stand in the way of the gods, that which shatters the foundations of the land itself and crushes anyone within their path, without mercy towards their actions.

Alongside that, it also includes a burning, wicked ‘hell-storm,’ one that forms fire-spirits in the shape of Youkai, Demons and even Eastern Dragons whom band together to slay those that attempt escape from the heavenly massacre and the thick, choking ash it produces –– with fiery bullets, burning winds and breath attacks that immolate and combust all that they touch, a puncturing killing force equal to that of a certain ‘weapon of mass destruction’ as devised by mankind in the 20th century. Even the ability to call forth lightning-bolts from the clouds above becomes possible –– cleaving those they land upon in twain –– born from the divine ancestor, ‘Minamoto no Yorimitsu,’ of the one that brings them down on their enemies.

Essentially, an ‘annihilation assassination’ that cannot be extinguished through mere rains nor floods alone, but by something of an equally destructive power pointed towards the sky –– that eradicates its existence amongst the clouds and the winds.

However, as it was one of the most successful attacks against ‘Oda Nobunaga,’ that led to her death –– it is has gained an ‘Anti-Nobunaga’ classification, allowing it to deal double damage, along with an ability that seals away her Noble Phantasms, when ‘Oda Nobunaga’ is within range.

Thus, it is surely an excellent ‘Nobunaga Eradicator’ with no superior.

If she loves him, just create some frilly pictures of them together in his cell or something, idk. Some character, because I dont buy how a demon pillar can become a teenie fangirl in a sense.
There is a certain flow missing that marries and sells these concepts in a fluent manner.

Hmm, I can see why. The sheet feels like kinda' a mix of ideas in a way. Maybe I should've made Sophia an imaginary goddess born from Boethius' mind like in the original sheet, but I liked the twist that she was actually changed by meeting him even though he reveres her. Watcher Class was mainly chosen because it fit his philosophy and ordeal. The shadows were mostly there just because "obligatory Watcher", although it occurs to me none of my Watcher sheets have made much use of them (my only other one that included the shadows, Ashur, also had them pretty perfunctory). I feel the other two Class Skills fit pretty well though.

I looked through a bunch of Lulu/C.C pics when brainstorming this sheet but most were too explicitly romantic to fit. I'll consider that if I decide on adding a bond CE though. And thanks for the feedback!

Mitsuhide: Pretty fun sheet. The 'chuuni doofus' angle is an unexpected one that you managed to sell. For the obvious goofiness she comes off as a surprisingly tragic figure in how her earnest idealism made her oblivious others were mocking and using her behind her back. I think Charisma- B+ is a little high for someone who only ruled 13 days before being deposed. I mean, that's higher than Arturia! If it's just for leading troops C or C+ should be enough.

The NP has some cool imagery but seems fairly unconnected to the historic anecdote it's based off of. I appreciate you set it apart from the obvious 'Reality Marble that summons a burning castle' but all the stuff about meteors, Youkai and lightning raining from heaven is a pretty wild leap from her actual feat of surrounding a temple to kill one guy. I can't really say how to 'fix' it though and between the historically accurate version that's been done dozens of sheets before and spicing it up a little I'd still prefer originality. I guess it can partially be justified by her chuuni nature modifying the NP too.

Totally valid. This is one of my oldest sheets but if I did her now, it would probably be totally different. Same with any of the old sheets I'll be posting over the next few days.
