Follow your hearts lads
^^^
please do.
At the end it’ll be more for voters to judge than me - imo - if you want to make an argument for discovered the world of the past, I certainly won’t judge or refuse. It’s just the initial prompt I intended was more new land / places like Helena looking for Agartha or going to space and Columbus and the New World.
After that it is making a case for your choice. ^^;
It seems like the sheets will evolve in different approaches of "explorer" and "discovery".
I have at least 3 sheets in my mind and I can't choose which concept of those I will choose hmm... I guess I will wait the first two or three sheets to see what way people are going.
I think I got a good person for this

Personality and History:
"There is no need to worry!"
That single sentence can describe her entire character: a very bright and optimistic person. She will face hardship with a big smile and confidence on her face, she will go through disasters with faith in her heart. Perhaps it just mere luck, or perhaps because that optimism is why she can remain calm in a very unfavorable situation. Calling her a fearless fool is accurate, but calling her stupid is an act of stupidity by itself. Even though her foolishness sometimes shoot her in the feet, in a situation that means the death of her, her head still calculate the best outcome she can think of:
How do we fulfill this voyage?
Even as a Servant, that is the most important thing in her head.
Originally a viceroy of Portuguese that participate in various naval battles, she left her country to serve Spain after an incident with the authorities. She was sent by the future Holy Roman Emperor Charles V to realize Columbus's spice route. She thought that by choosing a new route, the Portuguese will be alright with her expeditions, but Portuguese rivalry with the Spanish caused her being attacked anyway. After various of assaults, she successfully evades death and reaches the Philippines. Due to her overconfidence of European superior technology, battle experiences, and lack of understanding of Maritime social structures caused her downfall in the hand of Lapu-Lapu. In the end, her optimism is her source of strength and failure.
However, she doesn't give up to make her expedition into a big success. As she was fatally stabbed by the warrior tribes, she holds them off so her crews can run away, return to their home and report their navigations. Francis Drake was credited to be the first person alive to successfully circumnavigate the world, but Magellan's expedition team already achieved the feat even though she died halfway on the voyage.
The Holy Grail: Gold cup? I prefer spices. Eh, You can exchange it for unlimited spices!? Wait, but if the spices become unlimited then its economic value will be lost...
Likes: Challenges are fine, but going through calm seas like Mar Pacífico for once in a while is nice too.
Dislikes: Being chased here and there, is kinda stressful isn't it?
Class Skill:
Riding B
Most vehicles and animals can be handled with above average skill, even vehicles that did not exist in the time period one was alive in, for they are no exception. However, cannot ride the likes of Phantasmal Species such as Monstrous Beasts.
Magic Resistance E
Can not cancel spells, but magic damage is reduced somewhat. Originally doesn't have any innate resistance at all, as she underestimated Lapu-Lapu enchanted weapon, she gains this skill at the utmost minimum.
Personal Skill:
Voyager of The Storm A
The talent to sail vessels recognized as ships. Because the ability as a group leader is also necessary, this unique Skill also has the effects of both Charisma and Military Tactics. Magellan is a very talented navigator to be able to navigate an entire armada through narrow straits, harsh storm and other sea plagues.
Equilibrium Fortune B
It is a Skill to gain a higher advantage by disadvantaging oneself in other areas. It allows her to boost her parameter, skill and territorial advantage by 1 rank in exchange lowering other abilities by 1 rank. In case of her LUCK, this Skill activates unconsciously and unpredictably from E to A akin like a curse. Being unlucky to be falsely accused, but that misfortune caused her being able to expedite. She successfully evades the hunters sent by her former country, but that luck caused her to be killed at today's Philippines. Her life can be described as a roller coaster of luck.
Battle Continuation C
A Skill that allows for the continuation of combat after sustaining mortal wounds. It will also reduce the mortality rate from injury. This Skill represents her mentality to never give up, consisting of her's strength of vitality in predicaments. Even if wounded by mortal wounds, Magellan can stay conscious for a few minutes and give the necessary order to her allies for what to do after her death.
Unyielding Will B
A Skill that represents one's extremely firm will that never yields to any sort of agony, despair or circumstances. Able to delay damage from physical and mental assaults, causing her to not feel pain for certain period of time. Her optimism towards the expeditions, even attacked by plagues and sickness, hunger and bandits, death and betrayal, will never waver.
NOBLE PHANTASMS:
Armada de MoluccaThe Impossible Voyages
Anti Army
Rank B
A Noble Phantasm that can be activated using and summoning all 4 ship of Armada de Molucca: The Victoria, Trinidad, San Tiago, and Concepcion. While these ships are an asset of battle, they were no match for legendary ships like the Golden Hint or The Argo whos have a legend codified them as powerful battleships. They are, however, noted to be the first armada to circumnavigate the world, even though only 1 of them returning, even though the leader already long dead by that point. They are 3rd rate ships for battle, as their combined firpower is only comparable with D rank Anti Army NP, but they are the most trusted ships in regard to fulfilling their missions.
It is a Noble Phantasm similar to Gae Bolg, which will ensure one of the ships to deliver any chosen object until its destination, bending the law of distance as a result. If the armada is destroyed, one of the ships will survive; if the ship is wrecked beyond repairs, Magellan will survive using its wood pieces; if Magellan or her allies died, the object they carry will wander until it reaches its destination. Like Bellerophon, the ship itself is not the Noble Phantasm, but the act of 'sending object' that performed by the ship is. In a way, it is the most powerful Noble Phantasm that will guarantee its success once activated.
Join me, O adventurer! There is nothing to worry about, the time for us to dream as wide as we can have come! Lets those unbelievers who turn their face from us to be unseen, let those who have faith in us proud of their sons! The sea up ahead is waiting to be navigated, and the world beyond is waiting for our arrival! Now, Estrecho de Todos Los Santos, open the strait to the unknown!
Estrecho de Todos Los SantosCircumnavigation of The World
Anti Barrier
Rank A
The true Noble Phantasm of the Armada that symbolizes Magellan's role as the one that opens the circumnavigation of the world. The Strait of Magellan was found by her and said to be impossible to be navigated. It was even named as Cape Famine, the sea of plague that perhaps the last stronghold of Mapuchian Gods until the day it conquered. Magellan's armada voyage safely from it is a symbol that the impossible can be done, somethings far phenomenal are up ahead, the world beyond that no one ever set foot before is possible to be visited. The lost of its unconquerable status mark the start of a new era, where other sailors inspired to took the same path as Magellan and carve their own name in history, kickstarting the race for world circumnavigation.
Its manifested as a wormhole-like Noble Phantasm that can be accessed as long Magellan activate and boarding Armada de Molucca. It allows one to enter or exit boundary that supposedly unable to be entered or exited, ignoring any kind of restrictive conditions like concepts or even time. A cave without entrance can suddenly be collapsed to open a path, a mountain range with no apparent way to be hiked can be explored, a Bounded Field or Reality Marble that conceptually unable to be set afoot at becomes penetrable, a secluded Singularity can be suddenly visited via independent Rayshift.
The two Noble Phantasm can be combined, removing law of distance and making connected wormhole in the air, as a result, allow the ships to gave an illusion of warping in lightspeed. Visually, Armada of ships warping together looks as glorious as the hyperwarp from a certain space war movie.

Class Skills:
Magic Resistance: D
Grants protection against magical effects. Differing from the Resistance effect that merely rejects Magical Energy, this ability cancels the spells altogether. Cancels Single-Action spells. Magic Resistance of the same degree of an amulet that rejects magical energy. A famous modern figure, he possesses rather low resistance for his class.
Riding: C
A skill denoting the ability to ride mounts. Most vehicles and animals can be handled with average skill, even vehicles that did not exist in the time period one was alive in for they are no exception. Caster was never depicted atop a… conventional mount and had no legend regarding vehicles. Why he actually possesses this skill is best left unsaid.
Item Construction: B
A Caster-class Skill. It is the Skill to manufacture magical items, from implements of war to items for daily use. Also, this Skill requires time to gather components and manufacture items. Lancer is capable of crafting minor Conceptual Weapons and highly sophisticated Mystic Codes with numerous complex functions
Personal Skills:
Founding Father (Wisdom): A+
A skill possessed by those who founded the United States, with each one possessing a unique variant. Caster is capable of using any skill from American Heroic Spirits excluding those inherent to the body (such as Divinity) at proficiency of A~B Rank, he can only use a few at the same time – it allows for significantly enhanced combat prowess at close and long range. Even though as one of the last ‘Renaissance Men’ to give him a wide variety of skills, he primarily he uses the Shapeshift skill continually to maintain appearance to a more modern and ‘Cool’ visage that (he believes) will be popular with the ladies of the new age and vary it to the person he’s trying to woo. It doesn’t help that his true form is that of a wrinkly old and obese man.
Galvanism: A+
A Skill that allows unrestricted conversion and accumulation of magical energy and bio-electricity. Like Phlogiston and Ether, the concept of Galvanism, which explains organic activity as a bio-electric process, falls under the domain of Alchemy. There exists a magical engine functioning within Lancer, descended from a secret lineage of powerful Magi and awoken when struck by lightning. Magical Energy is constantly produced within his body granting him a strong affinity to the Lightning element as well as changing his Origin to it as well. He is also able to convert formless attacks into electricity and recharge himself. In this case, one is able to infuse weapons and body with divine lightning from the Age of Gods with ability akin to Mana Burst… at least according to Lancer. He’s probably lying though, right?
Protection from Lightning: A
The ability to counter electrical attacks due to exceptional means such as, either near instantaneous reflexes to evade or simply just natural damage resistance. Lancer's fame as the one who tamed lightning without getting hurt has granted him the use of this skill.

Creators Notes:
- Tesla gave electricity to the world, Benny here showed it could be done in the first place and opened up whole new fields of study that others used for exploration. Technically it was him who “brought an existence that belonged only to beings from the Age of Gods down to Earth”.
- I know that this is pushing the prompt to the extreme and very similar to Tesla but i wanted to and making him as a Caster was too straightforward.
- The American Revolution was a turning point in history, but this isn’t a super serious sheet.
- Given the opportunity; he would explore your mother. The sad thing is that this isn’t a joke, in France the dude caught basically every STD known to man and would give a speech as to why older women were better lovers.

Class Skills
Existence Outside the Domain (EX): This skill represents a Foreigner who was not born on Earth, a being outside of reality and the known universe.
Insanity (C+): A Mental Pollution-like skill gained from contacting an evil god that can easily erode the fragile common sense and morals of humans. However, the main qualification for the Foreigner class is to defy this erosion, either by maintaining their integrity as they descend into madness, or instead of being consumed by madness, they consume the madness itself. Due to the anecdotes of people doubting Foreigner’s achievements, considering him to be a fool and/or a liar, this skill the side effect of ‘doubt’, with his words carrying an aura of mistrust that shakes the souls of those who talk to him. His madness has been sublimed into curiosity, driving him to forever seek things unknown to him.
Divinity (D): The measure of whether one has Divine Spirit aptitude or not. At high levels, one is treated as a mixed race of a Divine Spirit, and the level declines when the Heroic Spirit's own rank as a Monster or Demonic Beast raises. It can also decrease due to one's dislike for the gods. Those who have A Rank Divinity or above has reached the Throne of Gods. It also has an effect which reduces special defensive values called 'purge defence' in proportion to the Divinity's Rank. It can break through Skills such as Protection of the Faith and Enlightenment of the Sacred Fig. Foreigner's divine nature does not come from his bloodline, but because his powers are derived from a contact with an eldritch being.
Personal Skills
Voyager of the Storm (B): The talent to sail vessels recognized as ships. Because the ability as a group leader is also necessary, this unique Skill also has the effects of both Charisma and Military Tactics. Foreigner is a skilled sailor who managed to safely navigate notoriously dangerous seas and return home without incident.
Midnight Sun (D): A phenomenon present in the Earth’s polar regions, where, due to the planet’s axial tilt, the sun always stays above the horizon in summer and below it in winter, creating a perpetual day and night respectively. A simple support skill that means that, no matter the time of day, around Foreigner’s presence checks are made as if the sun is constantly present. Thus Servants who only have skills or abilities active at night, such as Caligula or Jack the Ripper, are at a slight disadvantage.
Prana Burst – Ice (A): The increase in performance caused by infusing one's weapons and body with Magical Energy and instantly expelling it. Simply put, recreating the effect of a jet burst by expending large amounts of Magical Energy. In this case, the expelled mana has a freezing effect, being aligned with the ice element. Foreigner’s body has become a gate to the cold beyond, and as such radiates a cold aura, and any weapon he grasps becomes coated in permafrost. He also possesses a dragon-like cold breath attack, breathing out freezing pale blue flames.
Noble Phantasm
"Rise, Yikilth! Answer the summon of your Master! Let the north wind fill your sails, let Callisto be your guide! Turn them to ice with your frigid breath! Fall into the abyss beyond this world!"
Yikilth HyperboreaCitadel of the Arctic Sea
Anti-Army (A): The mighty iceberg that serves as the flagship of the outer god Rlim Shaikorth that has been gifted to Pytheas under the Foreigner class. Rather than leave it as a simple berg, he has transformed it into a gargantuan floating warship made of clear, glittering ice. It comes equipped with cannons that fire massive snowballs, and the main gun, concealed beneath the prow, fires a bright blue beam that leaves enemy vessels frozen solid. The ice produced by this ability has passed into this world through the gate of Foreigner’s body, and cannot be melted, so fire and the like are simply not an issue. It has the power to erode life, and simply touching it can cause one’s health to sap away. Thus for beings other than Pytheas and his otherworldy crew, simply boarding the ship is dangerous, though his Master has a degree of protection due to their link with Foreigner. Though it is a ship, Yikilth can fly through the air, and if all else fails, Foreigner will likely use it to ram the enemy, in the grand tradition of naval battles.
Lore
At some point I was thinking on doing Pytheas and I am glad I didn't choose him because I would never be able to do a sheet that good for him.
1 proper day in and there are already 3 entrees. Nice. This'll be a popular one.

Author's Notes:
Decided to go the scientific discovery path with this sheet though I wonder if it even qualifies for the "Discovery" qualification considering he discovered: liquid fertilizer (reason the world is currently around 7 billion people and won a nobel prize), chlorine gas, chemical warfare, phosgene gas, mustard gas, cyanide gas, and attempted to discover how to collect gold from particles in the ocean. So would his "discoveries" allow him to qualify?

AGI: B

LCK: E
NP: A
Class Skills:
Mad Enhancement: E
His parameters and sanity are left untouched by this skill. It appears that Dr. Livingstone naturally has a mentality that makes mutual understanding difficult.
Personal Skills:
Medical Techniques: D
Although he was a medical missionary, Dr. Livingstone was much more focused on the "missionary" part of his job, resulting in the low rank of this skill.
Protection of the Faith: B
Absoluteness of the body and mind born from a strong faith. It was from his strong religious zeal that his evangelism and abolitionism were born, and from those two came his decision to explore the Dark Continent.
Unyielding Will: EX
Possession of an iron will that reduces physical and mental damage. Once he decided to do everything he could to put a definitive end to slave trade, David Livingstone never once considered giving up. Even as he failed to convert the Africans, even as he lost his funding, even as his companions died or abandoned him, even as diseases wracked his body - he simply kept going forward.
Noble Phantasm
- Anti-Army, Rank AVictoria FallsThunder at the End of the World
The crystallization of Dr. Livingstone's greatest achievement: the discovery of the world's largest waterfall, referred to by natives as "The Smoke that Thunders", and named by him in honor of his queen. A Reality Marble built upon his long and arduous journey through Africa, that encapsulated the moment he remembers most fondly.
Upon activation, all those nearby are immediately transported to a replica of the Zambezi River Livingstone saw with his own eyes back in 1855. While he and his allies are able to safely admire their surrounding from the island that now bears his name, enemies will be assaulted by the furious waters endlessly falling from above and rushing forward, requiring a successful STR check to avoid being dragged away and left incapable of taking offensive actions.
