Here's my last one (didn't want to spam the thread with all three at the same time). I'll see if I can't work on personality and character appearance on my next one:

Region of Origin: Lydia
Time Period: 6th BC
Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Gender: Male
PARAMETERS
Strength D
Endurance D
Agility D
Mana A
Luck D+
Noble Phantasm EX
Class Skills
Item Construction (False) – C
The Skill to manufacture magical items. In Croesus’ case, it is labelled (False) because in spite of possessing no such ability of his own, he can produce reproductions of many different low-level magical objects through a function of his Noble Phantasm.
Territory Creation – --
The skill to build a special terrain that is advantageous to oneself as magus. Croesus does not possess this Skill as he did not possess that kind of knowledge or techniques in life. It is effectively rendered obsolete by his powerful Noble Phantasm, in any case.
Personal Skills
Golden Rule – B+
A measure of one’s fortune to acquire wealth. Croesus was so wealthy that the old expression "as rich as Croesus" originates in reference to him. His wealth, it is said, came from the sands of the River Pactolus in which the legendary King Midas washed his hands to rid himself of the 'Midas Touch' (which turned everything he laid hands on into gold) and in so doing, the legend says, made the sands of the river rich with gold. Croesus is credited with issuing the first true gold coins with a standardized purity for general circulation. Indeed, the use of gold and silver coinage is attributed first to Lydian civilization. However, they were quite crude, and were made of electrum, a naturally occurring pale yellow alloy of gold and silver. The composition of these first coins was similar to alluvial deposits found in the silt of the Pactolus River, which ran through the Lydian capital, Sardis. Later coins, including some in the British Museum, were made from gold purified by heating with common salt to remove the silver.
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. It increases the ability of allies during group battles. A rare talent, and an ability inherent to Servants of the Saver class. At this rank it is sufficient to lead a nation as its King/Queen. The morale of military forces he or she commands is extremely high, though due to the disastrous effects of the last campaign that Caster participated in, there is some unevenness in its effect.
Noble Phantasm
Both Bank and Church to Travelers and Citizens
Rank: EX
Type: Anti-Army
Range: 85
Maximum Targets: 200 people
A Noble Phantasm showcasing the duality of Croesus’ wealth and the faith preserved within the rebuild temple designed and constructed by the Cretan architect Chersiphron and his son Metagenes. Originally its original function was an ability/attribute booster through the blessing of its patron goddess Artemis based on the faith and belief of its caster. However with its new sponsor Croesus it has also gained the ability to act as a combination bank/mint in reference to his great wealth. In addition, whatever items and goods that were offered to the temple during its lifetime (among them several low-level magical items) are available for Croesus to use as he sees fit.
Biography
Croesus was the last king of Lydia of the Mermnadae dynasty, which had ruled much of Asia Minor since 680 B.C. The father of Croesus was Alyattes, and during his reign (609-560 B.C.), Lydia conquered many of the Greek cities on the Ionian coast, and made them pay tribute. As a consequence of this, and also the discovery of some gold and silver mines in Asia Minor, they kingdom of Lydia became very rich. Croesus inherited this wealth, and continued his father's policy of conquest until virtually all of Asia Minor was subdued. He developed a friendly relationship with the Greeks however, and generously contributed to some of their temples.
When Cyrus of Persia conquered the kingdom of Medes, whose king Astyages was an ally of Lydia, Croesus began to prepare for war against Persia. He made alliances with Egypt, Babylon and Sparta for the defense of Lydia, and he consulted with the Oracle at Delphi. The first battle of the war with Cyrus inconclusive, but when Croesus returned to Sardis for the winter, the Army of Cyrus followed him, and unexpected besieged and conquered the city. Instead of killing Croesus, however, Cyrus made him an advisor and confidant, and Croesus spent the rest of his life at the court of the Persian King.
