Not at all.
You should fully read the Monthly Contest thread, it's quite fun.
Whilst trawling my files I stumbled across another finished Sheet that I never published...so here it is.
Eh, it's not quite up to my current standards - especially his personality being too vanilla good guy but I can't be bothered to change it.

still decent for an old sheet. how old is it?
I took a look at my old "sheets" back when i started my interest in the Fateverse. It should be around a year ago I started doing stuff, long before i found this forum. And btw in 4 days it is my half-year anniversary here Out of nostalgia I looked up my baby steps. (Edit: Nope, I am dumb, 7 months already then)
Idk how I did this, I think i randomly looked up a skill from arthuria, but instead clicked Invisible Air: Barrier of the Wind King and thought, "well okay, that is how they name skills".
I basically made a dozen sheets for gods in that style, looking like they all have several NP.
The first I am looking at has 3 divine constructs as possible weapons, so basically 3 NP, i at least got the Class Skills somewhat right, perhaps from a later attempt of reworking, three Personal skills that are treated like NP's as well and then two regular NP on top of it. It will be one hell of a mess to recycle my first attempts now that i see them again. KEKW

Hey Skull, is there a reason Edern doesn't have True Name Discernment or God's Resolution (or the requisite alternatives)? Feels kinda weird for a Ruler to lack his Class Skills.
Edern: How dare! How dare you pull something like this? Really, the audacity!
I can kinda see what you mean by vanilla, but there are vanilla people out there. Not everyone is a deeply complex Rubik's cube. Some people like me are more akin to an overhead maze. We look complicated, but that one path to the end isn't really that hard to find.
I see you also went the route of having someone give him a identifying object, only you went armor while I did spear. I actually considered giving him Saint, but I would've done E rank, and being a patron saint of two churches and not generally thought of as one made me just put that one aside. I'm also not so sure on Counsel of the Strategist, as his only real listing as commanding an army is that one note for the Battle of Mount Badon, which is the reason I did the Charisma/Strategy combo. Still, it's interesting to see someone else's take even if you can't help but compare them.
Master. My name is... No. Something's wrong here. Wait. Did you summon me as a Caster? Why? Why would you do that? Saber, Rider, I'd take Lancer, but Caster? You can't be serious!
Source
Class: Caster
Other Classes: Saber
True Name: Sir Erec/Garaint
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Place of Origin: Britain
Height: 157 cm.
Weight: 59 kilo.
Likes: Edine. Adventure. Winning against the odds.
Dislikes: Judgmental people. Rumors.
Natural Enemy: His Saber self.
Parameters:
STR: B
END: C
AGI: D
MGI: C
LCK: C
NP: A
Class Skills:
Magic Resistance (EX):
When he was a child his mother, a powerful sorceress and very distant descendant of Circe named Crisea, enchanted her son in such a way as to make him completely immune to all forms of magic.
Territory Creation (B):
Caster has the ability to form a “garden”. Within this garden, every herb, fruit, and bird known to mankind exists, alongside the ability to magically diminish the power of anyone within who isn’t Caster.
Item Construction (-):
This Skill has been lost due to Familiar Creation.
Personal Skills:
Familiar Creation (A):
Skill that allows the user to create a familiar and control it from a distance.
Due to the knowledge bestowed by his robe and the power of his scepter, Caster has been given the ability to create any creature that has ever existed as a familiar excluding the highest of Phantasmal Beasts. The amount of familiars he can create at a time is proportionate to the magical power of the creature created.
Against the Odds (A):
A Skill that increases the user’s Parameters and certain Skills when in a disadvantageous position such as being caught off guard, afflicted with negative effects, forced to fight multiple opponents, or dealt heavy damage in a battle.
Literally almost every battle Caster fought on his adventure had the odds stacked against him. Between fighting two giants at once, multiple opponents ambushing him, or killing an opponent after awakening from unconsciousness while bearing dangerous wounds. For Caster, it increases his Strength and Agility as well as giving him Battle Continuation as high as A rank.
Oblivious (B):
Let it never be said Erec was a truly discerning individual. Many times, he was chased or hunted by others, completely unknown to himself even as his wife noticed them. He also experienced several times where he could not properly read a situation and even a situation where he couldn’t remember someone he became friends with two days earlier.
This Skill makes him more receptive to effects that deceive the senses and mental interference. It also treats Luck Checks against unknown threats as E rank.
Noble Phantasm:
Robed in Quadrivium: The Form of All (B)
A multi-colored robe made by four fairies from the pelts of Barbioletes that represented the Quadrivium, meaning the four liberal arts of Geometry, Arithmetic, Music, and Astronomy, given to him as a coronation gift by Arthur.
This robe is one that enhances one’s magical capabilities as well as giving them intricate knowledge of magic and the laws governing it. For one naturally talented in magic, this robe is an extremely potent and powerful tool. For someone like Caster, who was completely unfamiliar with magic before being given the robe, it simply makes him a mage far above most.
Emerald Scepter: Authority Over All Beasts (A)
Usually manifesting as a sword made completely of emerald, as he’s much more comfortable with it in this form, this is nothing but a very durable sword. It’s true power can only be utilized by its true form: that of a scepter given to him by Arthur.
A divine construct with a head the size of a fist that paradoxically shows every single creature that has ever existed in its full form while also showing none of them, this scepter is what allows him his extremely powerful Familiar Creation Skill, something he can only utilize due to his robe.
Were this scepter in the hands of a powerful magic wielder, it would give them absolute authority over every creature on earth, including humans. This is because it’s actually the scepter Adam was given to signify his authority over all beasts. How Adam lost this scepter and it arrived in the treasury of Camelot is unknown.

Don't remember exactly, but it was initially in an outdated format so probably around two years old. I did take the opportunity to add in a few extra bells and whistles like updating the Relationship list.
I didn't care to use them and neither does the majority of FGO Rulers so it was whatever.
Oh yeah, I forgot you also did an Edern sheet a few weeks back. Oh well, they're plenty different enough so it's no skin off a duck's back.
In regards to the Saint thing, it's all relative really. Sure he's not brought up as a saint in the Arthurian mythos, but the church he founded in the 6th Century is still there today and is a major institution of the Church of Wales so I figured over a millennia of worship was enough to let him have the skill.
While we only get to *see* one battle sure, his status according to Rhonabwy of being on Arthur's Counsel of Wise Men that advise the king is more than enough in my mind to justify a strategy skill.

what a weird, but fun guy. Edit: and oh look! It is Herman the Recluse, but less edgy
The interaction between Against the Odds and Battle Continuation is weird, because AtO would basically always activate and raise BC when necessary.
So I would just merge BC into AtO in general.
And I would make his wife somehow part of his kit. I mean she is half his legend.
And probably because I only know what you present, his NP just seem out of nowhere, because those two coronation gifts make up most of his kit, but they end up being mere mentions at the very end of the Lore section. It is like you tell the story of a different, but similar Servant. So perhaps add more Lore and background to the coronation gifts to fill that hole, else i dont really know what to do with the actual sheet.

I considered giving him a Skill related to her warning him of oncoming danger as a way for her to look after him even when she isn't there, but decided it would be between that and Oblivious, and Oblivious seems more like the Skill he'd have rather than whatever that Skill would be called.
That's part of the point and the reason he's so indignant about it. For him, these two magical objects he didn't really earn and were given to him at the end of his story qualify him for Caster and make him stronger than if he was summoned in a more appropriate Class. It's ridiculous that such a small footnote would make him able to be summoned like this, especially after all the crazy things he accomplished without them.
Basically, this is somewhat of a jokey character, but not completely one. Unless I decide to do a Summer or Santa Servant, this is probably as close as I'm gonna get to a joke Servant.
It's probably only funny to me.

Sir Erec/Garaint: Again a rreally good Arthorian servant my friend i think you are now the specialist for them i think but as i read that his Mother is a descendant from Circe i got the thought how the whatever has got a desecendant a from a Goddess teached Sorcerress from a mediterean Greek Island to go to a temperate Britain Island ? i mean i have read that many tribes and ethnicities have miggrated through out the History and legends like that the Slavs were once Neighbours with the Ancient Iranian peoples because of this is the Duality of Chernabog and Belobog a element were some thought it may be the product of Christian influence or syncretisen .
I mean for me is still what i read that with Herakless Sword that went through some means to Arthorias vaults also a big Question i get almost the Feeling that Merlin is the Reason behind ? Like what is actually your oppinion from Merlin Morg ?

Class: Berserker
Other Classes: Foreigner
True Name: Moonwatcher
Alignment: Chaotic Mad
Place of Origin: Africa
Likes: Food, Sticks, Food on Sticks
Dislikes: Rivals for Food, His Phantasm
Natural Enemy: Lucky Mother
Parameters:
STR: B
END: C
AGI: B
MGI: E
LCK: D
NP: -
Class Skills:
Mad Enhancement (D+):
Berserker did not possess the means of complex communication even when alive, instead relying on rudimentary understanding of others. This creates a barrier in understanding with human masters.
Existence Outside the Domain (A):
Berserker is used as a conduit for something else to commune with humanity. Due to his lacking sense of self-awareness, the existence can exert much more influence than might be possible on one with a stronger ego.
Personal Skills:
Animal Communication (C-):
The ability to understand and communicate with animals. Berserker is halfway between man and beast, allowing for fundamental understanding between himself and other mammals, but he struggles with other types of creature.
Mental Pollution (B+):
A dubious designation to have, it would be difficult to describe Berserker as having much of a mind to pollute in the first place, however, it's notable that when trying to interfere with his mind, a strong barrier seems to exist to keep others at bay.
Monstrous Strength (D+):
Berserker can tap into physical power unheard of for an ordinary human, but at the cost of damaging himself. While his blows can temporarily rank up, recoil will damage his own limbs.
Noble Phantasm:
Africus Monolith: Catalyst of Man (-)
A towering stone monolith that manifests wherever Moonwatcher wills it. While technically being his Noble Phantasm, it would be more accurate to say that Moonwatcher acts as an anchor to allow the monolith to appear.
An existence beyond the scope of human understanding, the black slab delves into the minds of those that percieve it, opening their minds to truths they may not yet be able to comprehend. To those not yet ready to hear its message, extreme mental pain is all that accompanies its manifestation.
Moonwatcher himself hates to call on the Monolith, its power causing him great pain, but when activated, it increases his power as a servant while activating the plus modifiers of his skills.

Notes
Moonwatcher: Cool idea, but wouldn't this be better fitting for Modern Fiction? From what I can tell this is your interpretation of a character and concept from 2001, not any real-world myth or history. Aside from that, given his inhuman strength can he pick up the Monolith and hit people with it? Occurs to me he could maybe qualify as Lancer for an alt Class with the justification that the Monolith is his "spear" piercing forward and opening a path to humanity's future. Also kudos on the FC. I actually paused for a few moments wondering why that looked so familiar and figured it out before reading your author's note.

I did not consider that idea, that's actually a really cool thought, Lancer would work well. It is basically my take on the character from 2001, but I wanted to play more to the ancient man foreigner type angle than as a literary character, though I understand why others might not like that take. Glad you like the FC, I'm quite fond of it too, though it took a bit of fiddling to get the image to load right.
I guess you could take the angle I used for my Big Brother sheet, where he's the archetype of the "primeval man given wisdom" whose manifestation is influenced by the most iconic image of such, rather than the fictional character themselves. (Like my Servant was an incarnation of the concept of Totalitarianism but took the form of Big Brother as one of the most famous symbols of it).
