Lore:Avengers true name is Angéle de la Barthe, a woman allegedly accused and executed for witchcraft in 1275, popularly portrayed as the first person to be put to death for this reason in Europe. It was said she had sexual intercourse with the devil, giving birth to a monster that she fed babies for about 2 years before it escaped into the night. In the end however, this tale was proved to have been fabricated by a 15th century author. The woman known as Angéle de la Barthe had never truly existed, but a legend persisted long enough anyways to manifest as a servant regardless. As the real figure would be impossible to summon, a person who most closely fit the story would manifest, a wraith.
In life, she was just a normal person, living an average life by all means, no witchcraft to be found. Despite all attempts at normalcy, there would come a day in which she would be accused, joining the thousands of dead at the hands of the witch hunts. Giving birth to a son who could not fit this normal life, with rumors of his conception out of wedlock circling, the hysteria of the witch hunts would eventually target her. No matter what was ever said, she still loved her son, even if her heart could only find ire for everyone else. When the day she would be dragged to trail arrived, she would ensure her son could escape off into the night even if she could not. Ultimately, even now, the fate that befell her son remains unknown to her.
Personality:Likes: Her son, Forests, Dog Parks
Dislikes: Everyone minus one, but especially that one author.
Talent: Witchcraft
Natural Enemy: Religious figures
Angéle de la Barthe is as bitter as anyone could hope to be. Through the rage of persecution and the mistreatment of her son in the last years of her life, her personality has become extremely antisocial. Now dead and back again as a servant, there is no reason to hold back on any of her emotions, thus she is the sort of person to speak aggressively and cruelly without a filter of any kind. Fueled by resentment, hatred for the witch trails that cursed her and a complete abandonment of her faith in humanity, meddling with the fates of humans have become something of a pass time. Despite the seemingly twisted soul she expresses, if you asked her to describe herself, she could only say she possesses the self image of a doting mother.
Though once accused of loving the devil, she had never once even met him, but as a servant making the mistake that she did would be easy to make. A mistake that would cost you your life of course. Despite her sons now demonic form, she still possesses the strong maternal love that allowed her to keep going in life. Even as a servant, despite her sons incredible capabilities, she will still insist on fighting in his place. Perhaps sometimes worrying too much, with a second chance at life she will insist on putting her sons needs above everything else to point of being seen as an overbearing helicopter parent. Still, the two possess the powerful bond of love which exists between child and parent. It’s a bond she puts above all else; even the deep rooted resentment which drives her nature as an avenger. Even if the grail could torment all who cursed her, who built this legacy all those years ago, she’d still wish to just be able to live a normal life with her son.
During the days in which the holy grail war is not raging on, she will usually pursue various hobbies that require very few people such as gardening or solitaire. Now faced with the many great opportunities provided by the modern world, she usually spends her days trying out new things she would never have been able to before in search of a good way to spend time.
Class Skills:Avenger (C++)
A Class Skill of the Avenger class, representing the state of an Avenger as one that gathers people's hatreds and grudges onto oneself. It is easier for one to accumulate hatred and resentment. The rate of mana generation becomes higher when receiving damage.Her resentment towards others is normally high but unspecified, however, a dramatic increase in power is seen when ill will is directed towards her Noble Phantasm.
Oblivion Correction (B)
A Class Skill of the Avenger class. People are creatures that forget many things, but an Avenger never forgets. The critical effect of Avengers who attack from beyond one's memory is strengthened. That hatred shall never, ever be forgotten. Like a small, unsightly scar carved unto the history of man, it shall remain for eternity. Not a day has come in which she turned her mind away from revenge. Yet, due to the nature of her existence, the target of her ire is too ethereal, too vague, a concept without a physical form or neck which she could violently deny of breath as she always dreams. A revenge without a goal, no matter how strong the resentment, simply leads to aimless malice that continues to go unsatiated.
Self Replenishment (Mana) (C)
A Class Skill of the Avenger class. One's magical energy endlessly surges until their revenge is accomplished. Recovers a minuscule amount of magical energy every turn.
Personal Skills:Witchcraft (EX)
A Skill that signifies one as a practitioner of Witchcraft. This magecraft has roots in both the eastern and western worlds. While reality might deviate from the narrative told,as a servant who bears the legend of the first victim of Europe's witch hunts, witchcraft worthy of such a title has been bestowed upon them. Having been granted some of the western magecraft of which modern stereotypes and practices originate, it possesses significant power compared to what is expected of someone at her level.
“A subject who bears such a notable name must be equipped to raise hell to the titles standards. The origin for the first, fake or not, is a worthy boon.” - ▂▂▃▃▅▅■■■■▂▂▃▃▅▅■■■■
Innocent Monster (A)
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. Incidentally, this Personal Skill cannot be removed.
A witch whose story was entirely fabricated, yet possesses a legend strong enough to manifest. A soul who existed in simply unfortunate circumstance, she has been forced to bear the twisted legacy that comes with the tale. Despite the beliefs about her, it is her Noble Phantasm which has been forced to bear the brunt of the distortion, enough to be what has really pushed Avenger into the domain of witches.
“Do the nuances of the origin really matter? It’s all the same in the end, every story blends together. Only this time, you get an epilogue. And a new name.” - ▂▂▃▃▅▅■■■■▂▂▃▃▅▅■■■■
The Devil's Eye (B)
A curse for those who have garnered the affection of the devil, whether they truly met them or not. It’s a karmic bond with the devil manifested as an ability whose capabilities are mostly unknown to the user.
Always trailing behind like a second shadow, subtle in it’s ways but unsettling when noticed, no matter where Avenger travels the world becomes unearthly in her wake. An uncanny presence which manifests in every dark ritual and eerie place yet is never seen, reality ever so slightly seems to warp, and as if pulled by the gravity of a dense evil, misfortune gathers. At this rank, the closeness of their karmic bond can only manifest evil through a slow and indirect matter. Not powerful enough to pull the truly eldritch into the world, it can at first only bring about bouts of misfortune and terror upon those who catch the devil's eye. Given enough time spent in one place, it can become possible for demons of the uncanny valley to manifest. Ultimately, this ability and its various benefits and attacks sit outside of Avengers hands, for everything is at the devil's discretion.
“The devil can only meddle in another’s affairs. Direct intervention has never been as effective as a web. Action is more suited for you, and this new adopted son of mine.” -▂▂▃▃▅▅■■■■▂▂▃▃▅▅■■■■
Noble Phantasms:“Ye wander into forbidden realms, unbeknownst of what lies beyond the taboo. The universe has some place man mustn’t go, yet to see someone travel there anyways, it’s the most amusing beauty. How far will this child of mine go?”
“Your child!? That’s just a story they always told! I won’t let you get away with slander like that!”
“You should be fully aware by now, all that is evil belongs to me.”
“Then I’ll prove my sons innocence to be true.”
“We’ll find out if that’s the case when the curtains close, it’s almost here. The gates of hell now lie open! Come! Pay the consequences for meddling so deeply with the Devil! Hell Hou-.”
“Rise to the occasion my son! Hell Hound of Toulouse!"
Hell Hound of Toulouse
Devils Prodigy
Type: Anti-Army
Rank: A++
The monster supposedly born from the union of Angéle de la Barthe and Satan, it is a demonic beast of the highest order, exceptional more for its potential than its inherent capabilities. Originally just a boy, by becoming a wraith alongside Angéle the legend has transformed him into the baby eating monster once said to torment Toulouse with his mother's assistance. Despite the devils current endorsement and patronage, he can only be called a crude imitation of a demon due to lacking the proper origins of one. In essence, a fake with big shoes to fill. When first manifested, he appears in the monstrous form of a beast with wolfs head and snake tail as described in legend, but outside the great strength inherent to such a beast, this is as far as he can go. The true power of this Noble Phantasm comes from its ability to evolve. By making use of it’s supposed incubus heritage as some legends describe, it is capable of learning what a true demon is supposed to be by consuming the nightmares of mortals. Under the guidance of the voice of the ultimate demonic influence, it can use these nightmares to influence its own body and capabilities in an attempt to become one of the most horrific demons to ever prey upon mankind.
Despite it’s incredible potential, for strong emotional reasons Avenger will attempt to use this Noble Phantasm as little as possible.
Relationships:Abigail Williams:
“The center of Salem's madness has returned to life once more, it seems you couldn’t help but undo your one good deed.”
A figure directly involved in the accusation of witches, these two figures are especially incompatible.
Saints:
“If you’re gonna glare, look me in the eyes not behind me.”
Whenever she encounters a saint, there's always a strong feeling of animosity in the air. She can never identify if it’s actually being directed towards her or elsewhere.
Raikou:
As she radiates a motherly energy, she is spared Angéle’s poor attitude. Perhaps they could connect over their own cherished maternal bonds but Angéle has become a bit too socially inept to do so, thus she mostly avoids her.
Asterios:
“...... Do you wish to play with my son?”
Mephistopheles:
Do to being rejected by other witches, and most servants in general because of her cruel nature, the demon who shares a few notable traits with her is one of the few people she is seen hanging out with, often caught up in various forms of mischief.
▂▂▃▃▅▅■■■■▂▂▃▃▅▅■■■■:
There have been numerous complaints of a loud domestic dispute over what seems to be a nasty child custody case, despite the fact that it appears to be happening with no one is particular.
