Random, Is there any rules against using noble phantasm
Have you ever fought any mythical creatures?
I'm cool with whatever you want to try. Experiment, Saber will answer accordingly.

"You could say that. Demons, gods, and old hags that look like little girls. I'm pretty sure there's no Phantasmal being that I haven't slaughtered. Hag got back up though, lucky for me."

Does your sword have a name associated with it?
[click for combat check]
From the demonic mist come a number of serpentine heads, winding in a fearsome illusion. From the fog, a fiercely swift streak of silver cuts with speed beyond the realm of man - the decisive fatal blade of Gajah Merik, hastened by his Noble Phantasm of tremendous swiftness, slashes as he once did the seven-headed king of snakes.
Clang.
Without its target batting an eyelid, it strikes against metal. A large sword, glowing in an eerie light, blocks the blow effortlessly. Saber stares down at the boy with boredom... and a tinge of disappointment.
"Y'know, I'm not really the type to disable my opponents, but you seem to be anyway."
A flick of his wrist. A roaring rush of magical energy.
Merik's arm is thrown aside. In an instant, a knee in his gut.
The boy is sent flying, tumbling against the ground from the godlike force a single kick.
"You've got guts. But I meant what I said. You shitty knock-offs aren't any stronger than each other. It's your foes from your lifetimes who were weak. King of serpents? Give me a break," he glares. "Your enemies couldn't stand up the the faeces of mine."
"This thing? More names than I can count. Most of them are technically the names of fakes though."
He gives it a few leisurely swings.
"Not complaining. Nobody but me can even handle the real deal anyway."

Sorry, About him. I am his master, The guy always seem a bit hotheaded. But Tsukuba no Do as in mount Tsukuba isn't the very mountain that Japan was sprung from do you have any relation with the two creator deities of Japan. Izanagi and Izanami Perhaps and as for you Gerik. I am taking you back to the base. No back talk.
"Oh dear, don't mind me. Just your average overworked, unpaid salaryman here. The Master just enlisted my help to look over Lord Enma's records. I wonder if your name's in the registry somewhere... or maybe you're one of those people too divine or too immortal to ever step foot in his court?"
"It's fine. I can guess how it is with kids."
Saber doesn't seem particularly fazed by the whole affair. It appears that wasn't even thinking about it as a fight.
"Tsukaba has a lot of... adjacent bullshit. I can't rule out that my old teacher was somehow connected to those two, but she was definitely human. As for me... I've never seen 'em, nor do I have much to do with 'em."
"A lackey from old man Enma, huh. We're not on good terms, he and I. Could be because I gave him all that work to sort out," Saber mutters dryly. "Or because I murdered a bunch of his friends, but that seems unlikely."
With a self-depreciating shrug, he puts his sword away.
To the layman's eye, it is a simple act of sheathing the blade, but Takamura is more perceptive than that.
For some reason, Saber doesn't want him looking at it.
"Don't know if I'd be in the records or not. My Divinity's maxed out, so I doubt it. I'm certainly not in his underworld."

Very much a long shot, but was his teacher Wakanuke?
Saber... chuckles.
"Well, you got the era roughly on the mark, but there was no way that she and I could have ever met. Besides, Shishou was a saniwa who used magical arts, not a swordswoman."
He snaps his fingers, and a ghostly fire appears.
"That's what Tsukuba-dō is."

Maxed out divinity, have you always been a god if not how did you exactly pull it off, not even great heroes just became a god. Not everyone is Heracles
"Yeah, well, some of us are Heracles," he shrugs. "My situation is... complicated. I'm a demigod who was born as a shard of a different god. I was a human, but I became a brand new god all of my own after death. Even my sword is a Divine Spirit, both the same Divine Spirit that I am and the original that I was a fragment of. My father was deified too, but for completely separate reasons, so he doesn't even come close to me when comparing the strength of our Divinity. It was different while I was alive, but at this point, I'm basically only a mortal on paper."

wtf is that origin story
so father=sword=demigod<Saber=sword<father
where to start here...
Are you related to Takemikazuchi?

Honestly the most obvious named legendary Japanese sword I can think of is the Kusanagi, and it also had a bunch of names before Yamato Takeru gave it its most memorable name.
So, just to be sure... is your sword the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, or at least a variant of it?
"I see, what kind of god are you exactly. From what you said are since your are quite skilled with that blade and have the aura of a storm. I am guessing you are related either towards Raijin, Susanoo no Mikoto or Takemikazuchi."
"That guy has nothing to do with me. Like I say, I was a human during my lifetime. It's just... Ugh," he clicks his tongue in irritation. "My dad was a demigod. So I'm a demigod. I'm also a piece of another god with no blood relation to either of us. The sword is that god, but it's also the same god that I became. Takemikazuchi has a few similarities with me, but they're surface level. He was born way before I was even a glimmer in my old man's ballsack. And when my dad died, he became his own deity for other reasons that have nothing to do with me or my sword, which means that I'd be a double demigod, as well as a full god."
He grumbles.
"And honestly, given the lengths I went to distance myself from my family, the lineage questions are kind of a fuckin' racket."
"One and the same. There've been plenty of fakes over the years, especially since a certain fucking idiot lost it at Dan-no-Ura, but the fakes are all technically the real deal as well. That's the nature of this sword."
"None of the above. I don't care for lightning. I'm a war god. My storm is the kamikaze."
