    What even are Skills, anyway? Obviously little girl King Arthur can do more things than Charms, Instincted or Bursts her Mana.

    Sword fighting. Issuing decrees. Holding royal balls.

    Skills should be the most relevant, most essential abilities of the Servant, methinks. Skills bloat doesn't mean they're super at everything, just shit at writing a resume.

    Well, either that or just describing their appearance yourself. Sometimes it's damn near impossible to find a fitting FC.

    Also, regarding the Metatron sheet above, the combination of Magic Resistance and Exorcism of Apparitions is particularly redundant. Attendant Of Iron and maybe even To Unveil The Origin could also be scrapped (since the latter effect is pretty much included under his NP anyway). Because yeah, eight personal Skills is pretty overblown.

    Here's the last sheet my cousin asked of me. I saw the new Logan trailer before starting and I think it showed.

    ==================================


    Source: (X)


    Servant: Rider
    Alternate Classes: Archer
    True Name: Tsubodai "Valiant Dog of the Khan"
    Place of Origin: Mongolia
    Attribute: Man
    Traits: Humanoid
    Armament: Spear, Sword, Bow, Armour, Shield

    STR: B+
    END: A
    AGI: C
    MGI: D
    LCK: A
    NP: B++

    Height/Weight: 191cm/90kg
    Likes: A nice cold beer outside on a warm Sunday afternoon
    Dislikes: War, Assassination, Himself
    Talent: Unrivaled warfare
    Natural Enemy: Genghis Khan

    Class Skills:

    Magic Resistance: C
    Grants protection against magical effects. Differing from the Resistance effect that merely rejects Magical Energy, this ability cancels the spells altogether. Cancel spells with a chant below two verses. Cannot defend against magecraft on the level of High-Thaumaturgy and Greater Rituals.

    Riding: A
    A skill denoting the ability to ride mounts. All vehicles and all creatures but those of Phantasmal Beast and Divine Beast-rank can be used as mounts. Like most of his talents, Rider excelled in the art of mounts and is fully capable of firing projectiles from atop a mount without it affecting his accuracy in the slightest. He would be able to ride divine beasts… if he ever encountered any in life. As he did not, the skill is limited at 'A' rank.

    Personal Skills:


    Eye of the Mind (True): A
    A heightened capacity for observation, refined through training, discipline and experience. A danger-avoidance ability that utilities the intelligence collected up to the current time as the basis, in order to predict the opponent’s activity and change the current situation. This is not a result of talent, but an overwhelming amount of combat experience. Unlike the Khan and his descendents whom had a divine connection, all his talent comes from pure skill as a human.

    Military Tactics: A

    Tactical knowledge used not for one-on-one combat situations, but for battles where many are mobilised. Bonus modifiers are provided during use of one's own Anti-Army Noble Phantasm or when dealing against an enemy Anti-Army Noble Phantasm. Rider was single-handedly the greatest tactician of his time, even the great Genghis Khan himself acknowledged Rider to be superior in that regard and often relied upon his knowledge in combat. Whether it be attrition, siege or guerrilla strategy, Rider possesses expertise in all.

    Protection from Arrows: B
    An increased defence against ranged attacks by predicting the projectiles' trajectories through exceptional means, such as hearing the sound of air being cut, or sensing the killing intent of the enemy. As long as the shooter is within the line of sight, this skill user can track down ranged weapons with their eyes and defend against them.

    Uncrowned Arms Mastership: -
    Is arms competency that was not recognised by others due to various reasons. Despite being arguably the greatest mortal of his time, he was overshadowed by the divine power of his Khan, causing his talent and power to go overlooked. The rank of his weaponry, Military Tactics and Eye of the Mind appears to be one degree lower than what it actually is. If his true name is revealed, this effect will be terminated. Despite granting him an advantage, this skill represents the bane of Riders existence.

    Noble Phantasm:

    Neg Khar Tug
    Under the Shadow of the Khan


    Type: Anti-Country
    Rank: B++
    Range: ???
    Max Targets: ???

    The composite mount and Noble Phantasm of Rider. Although he is a talented Rider, he has no legends regarding a particular mount so he has formed his own. The manifestation of pure destructive force acting as a boon from the Sky Father from beyond… It as a violent and evil horse, thrice as large as most and with a taste for human flesh.

    While atop this mount, all of Riders physical parameters gain a 'Rank-Up'. It boasts great speed and power equal to an 'A' Rank physical attack however it's greatest ability is it's charging attack. This attack is the crystallisation of Tsubodai's military feats of defeating nations within days of each other, the longer it charges, the more power it gains and the faster it becomes and given enough time it could once again destroy nations within days of each other at a non-stop rush. However the greatest weakness is the mana cost, such an attack used constantly could very easily drain the Master dry if used carelessly.

    Lore

    The greatest general of Genghis and Ogedei Khan. He directed more than twenty campaigns in which he conquered thirty-two nations and won sixty-five pitched battles, during which he conquered or overran more territory than any other commander in history.

    Born in 1175 as a commoner, his elder brother served with Genghis Khan (then known as Temujin) who rescued the Khan from the most powerful blow he ever received in his life - an arrow shot by his enemy Jebe who would later become one of Genghis's greatest warrior generals.

    At the age of 14, he left his tribe to join the army and follow in his brothers footsteps. He proved himself invaluable and became a general in less than a decade. As one of the first generals he won many decisive victories with minimal losses, manoeuvring the enemy into a position of weakness before committing to battle. He played a key part in the campaigns against Xi Xia and Jin and a number of western campaigns. He also mentored the first "Son" of Genghis Khan and considered him a close friend Jochi was much like Genghis but with a kinder disposition and a need to prove himself - however then Jochi rebelled, Rider was the one to end it by assassinating him. A part of Rider died that day.

    After the death of Genghis shortly after, Rider focused into his work as he served the heir - Ogedei Khan. He turned west to fight on against eastern and central europe. He had little trouble facing against knights for the first time in Russia and famously destroyed the armies of Hungary and Poland within two days of each other, by forces over five hundred kilometres apart. On the verge of assaulting the Holy Roman Empire he heard the news of the death of his new Khan which effectively put an end to the Mongol invasion of Europe. He later retired and spent his twilight years with his family at home where he died a quiet death in his home at the age of 72, a blessing few warriors ever receive.


    Personality

    Despite being a proud, loud and boisterous warrior in his youth, a lifetime of war has worn that away. Rider is a callous and cold old man who remembers everything. A man who was made a weapon and had the misfortune of living a long life in that regard. He tries to hold back having gotten sick of bloodshed and war and not prefers non-lethal ways to beat his opponents - he couldn't show much of this in life but did where he could, after conquering a nation he would only pillage. Now you might not say this is much but many questioned him from that level of restraint alone.

    Rider would happily take the role of a mentor who lets his pupils do the legwork while he has a beer. However if he decides killing is the only way to win or survive, Rider throws himself fully into the fight, intending to end his enemy as quickly, efficiently, and brutally as possible.

    He has a number of wishes; to step out of the shadow of Genghis and gain fame as his own warrior, that he did not kill Jochi and was able to negotiate a truce between father and son, that he died earlier and didn't have to live a life of chaos or just have a quiet life. He'll make his mind up eventually.

    Tactics

    Just sit back and do what this guy says fam. He's gonna do all the thinking from now on, Tsuby got ye covered. Just focus on supplying mana for ya boi.

    Key Words/Craft Essences

    Secret History of the Mongols (Level 10 Bond CE)

    "They are the Four Dogs of Temujin. They have foreheads of brass, their jaws are like scissors, their tongues like piercing awls, their heads are iron, their whipping tails swords . . . In the day of battle, they devour enemy flesh. Behold, they are now unleashed, and they slobber at the mouth with glee. These four dogs are Jebe, and Kublai, Jelme, and Tsubodai."

    Not quite sure what you intended to say here, but I presume "cancelled" isn't it.

    Alright then. Edited. Thanks for the feedback. I'm not too experienced in writing these sheets, but I try to get better every time.

    Source: Artist is Craig Mullins
    Class: Berserker
    Alignment: Lawful Good
    Origin: Historical
    Region: Hungary

    Parameters
    Strength: A
    Endurance: B
    Agility: B
    Mana: D
    Luck: C
    NP: C++


    Height/Weight: 190cm/91kg
    Gender: Male
    Likes: Christianity, Vlad III, king and country
    Dislikes: Vlad II, Wladyslaw III
    Talents: Initiative
    Natural enemy: Ottomans
    Attribute: Man, Fire
    Traits: Human, Male, Servant, Draconic

    Class Skills:

    Mad Enhancement: (EX)
    Mad Enhancement is the Class Skill that characterizes a Berserker, raising basic parameters in exchange of hindering mental capacities. In some cases, it also affects and/or seals away some techniques, Personal Skills and Noble Phantasms.
    Parameters are ranked-up, but is deprived of most reason. He speaks calmly if gruffly, but his fixation on “acting first” means a mutual understanding is difficult.

    Personal Skills:

    Mana Burst (Flames): (C)
    Mana Burst is 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.

    The bastard son of the Holy Dragon Sigismund, Berserker carries a piece of the Order’s aspect in his blood, allowing him to unleash flame-filled strikes. It is a lower rank than it could be if Sigismund had been aware of his paternity to Berserker and nurtured his skill. Mana expenditure is thus rather inefficient.

    Demonic Vanguard of the State: (A)

    Demonic Vanguard of the State is the capacity for a Servant to strengthen oneself by following a specific set of steps before reaching a goal. By mapping a conceptual path to a target, the Servant may increase their combat capabilities by fulfilling the predetermined path. Expressed as a forward path to the target that’s in reality a series of events, the power earned from Demonic Vanguard of the State fluctuates depending on how closely the events are followed.

    The inversion of Demonic Defender of the State, the Vanguard variant seeks to create a false leyline road that gains power the longer it’s traveled on--as Defender gives bonuses for safeguarding said leylines. However, the first step in conceptual journey must involve preemptive defense of something.

    Berserker’s unique Personal Skill. As the only one to strike out at the Ottomans first before they attacked Christian soil, Berserker enjoys a high rank. Accurate travel of the false leyline gives him a combat boost equivalent to Mad Enhancement B. Deviations from the path result in less lost potential power than usual.

    Protection of the Faith: (A++)

    Protection of the Faith is a Skill possessed only by those who have sacrificed themselves for a religious view. Despite being a form of divine protection, it is not a blessing from a higher existence. It is only the absoluteness of one's body and soul, which is born from faith. But if it is too high, it causes abnormalities in the personality.

    Berserker, as the man who gave the Pope cause to call a new Crusade purely based on his actions, possesses this ability for his extensive and unforgiving attitude towards the Turks and in the defense of Hungary.

    Secret of Pedigree: Fehér Holló Korona: (C)
    Berserker’s white armor and helmet, meant to disguise his true identity on the battlefield.
    A false knight who entered war of his own volition who feared the loss of glory due to misidentification over any connection the enemy could make to him and his family. What could be considered a Noble Phantasm that’s been sublimated as a Skill, possibly only due to his class constraints.

    His True Name and skills are hidden from view, but fluctuating parameters as well as his class are clear for all to see. However, for some, the white armor will shine to them like a beacon...

    Noble Phantasm
    Noon Bell
    Victory at Belgrade

    Type: Anti-Army
    Rank: C++
    Range: 1
    Max Target: 1

    The Siege of Belgrade occurred from July 4–22, 1456. After the fall of Constantinople in 1453, the Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II rallied his resources in order to subjugate the Kingdom of Hungary. His immediate objective was the border fort of the town of Belgrade. Berserker, the Voivode of Transylvania, who had fought many battles against the Turks in the previous two decades, prepared the defenses of the fortress.

    The siege eventually escalated into a major battle, during which Berserker led a sudden counterattack that overran the Ottoman camp, ultimately compelling the wounded Mehmed II to lift the siege and retreat. The battle had significant consequences, as it stabilized the southern frontiers of the Kingdom of Hungary for more than half a century and thus considerably delaying the Ottoman advance in Europe.

    The Pope celebrated the victory as well, as he previously ordered all Catholic kingdoms to pray for the victory of the defenders of Belgrade. This led to the noon bell ritual that is still undertaken in Catholic and old Protestant churches nowadays. The day of the victory, 22 July, has been a memorial day in Hungary ever since.

    A strange sword that Berserker wields more similar to a club than a traditional sword. It has three points like a rapier, but the shape of the blade itself is triangular and hollow like an oversized windchime. The edges are indeed sharp, but the obtuse angle at which they meet makes actually cutting anything basically impossible.

    When struck against something, the sword produces a loud, rebounding ringing sound. Although the sword itself is a C rank Noble Phantasm, the rebounding sound waves are as well. By stacking the damage with consecutive strikes, the sword’s raw vibrational power is capable of rending fortresses apart.
    It develops a curious effect during the hour of 12 o'clock...


    Lore

    John Hunyadi was a leading Hungarian military and political figure in Central and Southeastern Europe during the 15th century. According to most contemporary sources, he was the son of a noble family of Romanian ancestry. He mastered his military skills on the southern borderlands of the Kingdom of Hungary that were exposed to Ottoman attacks. Appointed voivode of Transylvania and head of a number of southern counties, he assumed responsibility for the defense of the frontiers in 1441.

    Hunyadi adopted the Hussite method of using wagons for military purposes. He employed professional soldiers, but also mobilized local peasantry against invaders. These innovations contributed to his earliest successes against the Ottoman troops who were plundering the southern marches in the early 1440s. Although defeated in the battle of Varna in 1444 and in the second battle of Kosovo in 1448, his successful "Long Campaign" across the Balkan Mountains in 1443–44 and defence of Belgrade/Nándorfehérvár in 1456, against troops led personally by the Sultan established his reputation as a great general. The bells of Catholic and older Protestant churches are daily rung at noon to commemorate the Belgrade victory, although the pope had ordered this in advance, a week before the siege, in order to encourage the soldiers fighting for Christendom.

    John Hunyadi was also an eminent statesman. He actively took part in the civil war between the partisans of Wladislas I and the minor Ladislaus V, two claimants to the throne of Hungary in the early 1440s, on behalf on the former. Popular among the lesser nobility, the Diet of Hungary appointed him, in 1445, as one of the seven "Captains in Chief" responsible for the administration of state affairs until Ladislaus V came of age. The next Diet went even further, electing Hunyadi as sole regent with the title of governor. When he resigned from this office in 1452, the sovereign awarded him with the first hereditary title (perpetual count of Beszterce/Bistrița) in the Kingdom of Hungary. He had by this time become one of the wealthiest landowners in the kingdom, and preserved his influence in the Diet up until his death.

    This Athleta Christi ("Christ's Champion"), as Pope Pius II referred to him, died some three weeks after his triumph at Nándorfehérvár/Belgrade, falling to an epidemic that had broken out in the crusader camp. However, his victories over the Turks prevented them from invading the Kingdom of Hungary for more than 60 years. His fame was a decisive factor in the election of his son, Matthias Corvinus, as king by the Diet of 1457. Hunyadi is still a popular historic figure among Hungarians, Romanians, Serbians, Bulgarians and other nations of the region, many of them even considering him as their own hero.


    Personality
    "To escape is impossible, to surrender unthinkable. Let us fight with bravery and honor our arms."

    A pick-yourself-up-by-your-bootstraps type. Though he retains his mind, Berserker’s impatience and tendency to march headlong into conflict is reminiscent of a more classical individual of his class. Please refrain from playing the Futurama theme on Noon Bell, it will probably kill you one way or another.

    Relationships
    Romulus
    “Praise from a heathen...I cannot deny Rome’s might, so I will allow it. Hm? An honorary Roman, is it. Fine.”
    Liz
    “...Surely this must be some kind of joke, Master. This is the creature that’s inherited the noble position of Bator?”
    Vlad
    “You’re grown, boy. You command the same majesty as Sigismund through all that you’ve suffered and the pain you brought to the Turk. Me? I’m only a wandering knight, but I’m glad that leech of a father of yours didn’t prevent us from reconciling. You took good care of Matthias I hope."

    Just saying, I think it's a little overkill to quote the entire post just for one remark. Just the True Name should be enough.

    @John Hunyadi: Never heard of the guy before, but the sheet is pretty solid. There are a few nods to Vlad and Liz which work rather well without making him feel like just a half way house between the two.

    I finally had some inspiration to make a sheet, I had some fun making this sheet so I don't really care if its bad or not. Its probably a bit overwanked but I don't care.
    ---------------------------
    Servant:
    Caster
    Alternate Classes: Berserker
    True Name: Isaac Newton
    Alias: The Last Magician
    Alignment: Chaotic Good
    Place of Origin: United Kingdom

    Face Claim:



    Strength: E
    Endurance: E
    Agility: D
    Mana: A
    Luck: C
    NP:

    Lore:
    Sir Isaac Newton was an English mathematician, astronomer, and physicist who is widely recognized as one of the most influential scientists of all time and a key figure in the scientific revolution. His book Philosophić Naturalis Principia Mathematica, first published in 1687, laid the foundations of classical mechanics. Newton also made seminal contributions to optics, and he shares credit with Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz for developing the infinitesimal calculus. Newton's Principia formulated the laws of motion and universal gravitation that dominated scientists' view of the physical universe for the next three centuries. By deriving Kepler's laws of planetary motion from his mathematical description of gravity, and then using the same principles to account for the trajectories of comets, the tides, the precession of the equinoxes, and other phenomena, Newton removed the last doubts about the validity of the heliocentric model of the Solar System and demonstrated that the motion of objects on Earth and of celestial bodies could be accounted for by the same principles. Newton's theoretical prediction that the Earth is shaped as an oblate spheroid was later vindicated by the geodetic measurements of Maupertuis, La Condamine, and others, thus convincing most Continental European scientists of the superiority of Newtonian mechanics over the earlier system of Descartes.


    Personality:
    Isaac Newton is a very troubled man that who for most of his life was emotionally unstable. A man who, while a genius, had few friends with most of his peers hating him. Through a combination of Asperger’s Syndrome and Bipolar Disorder Newton is both socially inept and reclusive, often struggling with small talk even to those he was friends with. He would often switch from moments of anger to those of repentance quite often. While it is said he supposedly got better with these traits in his later years, the traits are brought back because of the effect of romanticism has had on his legend. Newton also suffered a great fear of criticism. Other beliefs for Newton’s upset emotional state come from the theory that he was gay which he felt great guilt for due to it clashing with his religious beliefs. Because of his personality Newton is hard to work with but he can be best utilized by a master with lots of patience and a kind heart.

    Likes: Alchemy, Science, Theology, the few friends he had.
    Dislikes: Critics, Robert Hooke
    Talent: Alchemy, science
    Natural Enemy: Robert Hooke or any other enemy of his



    Class Skills:

    Item Construction (B)
    The skill to manufacture magical items. Through his many decades of researching Caster has learned a wide variety of alchemical recipes though he has mastered them to different degrees making the quality of the constructed items vary but he can construct a wide variety of them. This can be greatly enhanced by one of Casters Noble Phantasms.

    Territory Creation (A)
    The skill to build a special terrain that is advantageous to oneself as a magus. At this rank creation of a "Temple", which is superior to a "Workshop", becomes possible. By following his blueprints Caster can construct his version of The Temple of Solomon which also serves as the crystallization of Casters faith. Caster believed the temple was constructed using sacred architecture and contained great wisdom, telling of man’s relation relative to the universe. Because of this, being inside the temple Caster gains an even greater understanding of many things he is not well versed in, the most useful of which would be a greater understanding of magecraft and combat allowing Caster to have in depth analysis when in combat scenarios. Because the Temple also had great influence in Casters predictions of the future, when he is in the temple he is granted Clairvoyance (False) at rank B+ allowing for short insights into the future.

    Personal Skills:

    A Disease of Men of Genius: (A+)
    A skill that serves a combination of Natural Born Genius and Mental Disorder that serves as a representation of Casters genius and Bipolar Disorder. Caster has been said to be one of the smartest if not the smartest man to ever live. This skill allows the use of most skills excluding those inherent to the body (such as divinity) or ones unique to particular heroes, at proficiency or A-B rank. Caster also gains a high physical pain tolerance, like when he stuck a needle in his eye to study how humans perceive color, but he often suffers mentally. The effects of this skill fluctuates as at times he will often enter periods of rage with little to no mercy, willing to go to great extremes like when he threatened to burn down the house of his parents, to great periods of depression and remorse, prone to make long lists of his “sins”. This makes the effects of the Mental Disorder skill very unstable.

    Pioneer of the Stars: (EX)
    The unique Skill given to heroes that became turning points in the human history. All difficult voyages and challenges which are considered "impossible" turn into "events that can be realized". Whether he likes it or not his many great scientific achievements have greatly altered the course of the world and his work are considered to have brought an end to the age of mysticism and brought about the age or reason which supported the Newtonian world view.

    Knowledge of Alchemy: (A)
    A skill for those who have great knowledge of Alchemy. Caster is known to have devoted decades of his life alchemy, studying many of the works of great alchemists before him and delving into research of his own. Caster has written over one million words on the subject of alchemy and that doesn’t include his works that were lost in a lab fire. Caster has also done great research into other famous alchemists exemplified by his translation of the Emerald tablet and his studies of the works of Geber. This allows Caster to have a wide variety of abilities from numerous sources and he can use them to varying degrees. Caster also researched heavily into Greek myth for his alchemy allowing him to identify Greek servants easily.

    Single Mindedness: (B)
    The ability to immerse oneself in something, exhibiting a superhuman degree of focus. According to Humphrey Newton, Caster devoted himself completely to his studies, going to bed late and eating little, often absorbed in thought and careless about the things around him. These traits are one of the reasons some believe Caster suffered from Asperger’s Syndrome.




    Noble Phantasms:
    Spoiler:
    Net of Vulcan
    The Net That Captures Divine Adulterers

    Type: Anti-Unit
    Rank: B
    Number of Targets: 2


    One of the most famous alchemical achievements of Isaac Newton where he created a stone resembling a net in some of its features by following a recipe based on a legend where Vulcan found his wife Venus in bed with Mars, so using his abilities as a craftsmen god, created a net which could trap both of them so he could hang them from ceiling as punishment. By following the recipe based on this myth he was successful in transmuting the net from the stone he created. Because it is a net that can entrap two gods at once, like Enkidu, it exists as one of the few anti-divine weapons that holds the concept of "reigning over the gods" though because it is a copy made through alchemy and is not the true net it is a little weaker than the original. The net first appears as a rock that is a mix of yellow and purple with a net like texture over top of it, but when gripped in his hand Isaac Newton can transmute it into the net, firing it from his hand like it was a net launcher. If he wishes to do this again he must create another rock using his item creation skill. The higher a captive’s divinity the harder the net is to break out of and has bonus for those famous for adultery. The net is basically a slightly weaker, and less versatile version of Enkidu.



    Star Regulus of Antimony
    The Precursor to the Philosophers Stone

    Type: Anti-Army
    Rank: A
    Number of Targets: 1-99


    The greatest dream of alchemists has always been to achieve the Philosophers Stone and this was no exception for Newton. With the many documents Newton had on alchemy it is revealed that while he did not achieve a Philosophers Stone he had recipes for what was supposed to something one step away. Serving as a prototype to the Philosophers Stone rather than the true item, it can replicate some of the powers of the stone but not all. One of the abilities it can use is, like the Sword of Paracelsus, is the simulation of True Ether which can be used to destroy anything around it. Newton also talked about Ether in his theories of gravity and because of the stones relation to this, the stone also has a strong gravitation ability powered by the Ether. But like Paracelsus he needs the 5 elements as a catalyst which could become possible with use of the wisdom found in the Temple of Solomon. While able to perform many forms of transmutation which can enhance his item construction skill it still lacks many of the other abilities of the Philosophers Stone, most notably would be its healing abilities. It is unknown exactly what the stone Newton created from his recipes would have actually been allowing for it materialize in the form of Newton’s most precious stone, one which supposedly played the role of apple in inspiring his theories of gravity.


    Spirit of Gravity
    The Force That Holds All Things to the Earth

    Type: Anti-Army
    Rank: A+
    Number of Targets: 1-99

    This Noble Phantasm is a conceptualization of Newton’s Theory of Gravitation, the most famous of all his academic achievements. In his works Newton would use the word force but he did not actually know what exactly this force was but because of his spiritual beliefs he believed this force was the work of spirits. Because of this the Noble Phantasm is a powerful Nature Spirit who control of gravity. The spirit has a number of attacks and abilities it can perform through its manipulation of gravity but the most common attacks is greatly increasing or decreasing the force of gravity in a given space. A magic circle will appear on the ground and the space inside of it will either greatly increase or decrease in the force of gravity forced on to the area. The larger the area the longer it takes for the magic circle to form and multiple magic circles can be created at once. A high ranking in strength is needed to resist the force of gravity if it’s increased so a caster may die very easily but someone like Hercules could probably handle it though his attacks will be much slower. The spirit serves as both great defense and offense. The spirit can block most if not all projectile attacks, though projectile Noble Phantasms could probably break through it defense.

    An interesting take on Newton that's unlike anything I've seen before. You've definitely emphasized his alchemic studies and mental instability, the latter of which I barely even knew about (though I do remember that he obsessively recorded lists of his "sins"). The Vulcan's net thing is also wholly new to me, so overall it feels like I actually learned more fascinating trivia about this guy from reading your sheet.

    The gravity NP is of course obligatory for a Newton Servant but it's pretty well fleshed-out and again, different then what I've seen in other Newton sheets. Out of curiosity, did you have any specific imagery in mind as to what the gravity spirit looked like? Is it a cute girl...?

    That explains why he never married, his true Waifu was the gravity he discovered.

    puts a whole new spin on the Apple story....

    very solid sheet
    i like how you focused on the mystical portion of newton which makes sense because he's a caster. People forget that.
    i'd say the minuses aren't really necessary and i didn't like the precursor philosopher's stone np.
    very well done though
