    Possibly not Dumas anymore given how the name's been scrubbed out on the promo art while the others were all left, but likely to still be a writer, yes.

    Wasn't he? Oh, well there you go. I thought they'd just changed him because they didn't want to deal with having a black guy who's more than Archer tanned but less than supernaturally dark Hassan.

    * Alignment: Chaotic Good
    * Noble Phantasm:
    * Strength: B
    * Endurance: B
    * Agility: A (EX)
    * Mana: B
    * Luck: B

    --- Class Skills:

    * Magic Resistance:
    B: Cancel spells with a chant below three verses. Even if targeted by High-Thaumaturgy and Greater Rituals, it is difficult for him to be affected. Saber's magic resistance, despite naturaly coming from his own knowledge of magic was further boosted by the summoning on the Saber class.

    * Riding:
    B: Most vehicles can be handled with above average skill. However, cannot ride the likes of Phantasm Races such as Monstrous Beasts.


    --- Personal Skills:

    * Loyal Knight:
    B: In case Saber and his master share the same goals and methodologies Saber receives a plus modifier on a non-luck attribute while he and his Master are doing something together to further they shared goals. If the friction between Saber and his master is too great and they disagree on a fundamental way, Saber then receives a rank down on three random attributes. (This represents the fact that King Arthur had to order Saber to throw Excalibur on the lake three times.) . It also gives him great resistance to mental effects that would cause him to go against his Master or Lord.

    * Knowledge of the Oak Tree:
    C+: This skill was acquired late on Saber's life. After the fall of Camelot Saber become a hermit. He grew both spiritually and magically, and he refined his knowledge of magic. At C+ Rank Saber has access to skills such as magecraft, meditation, healing, botany, magical lore, crafting of magic items at C Rank (B Rank for his most favored ones, such as meditation).

    Mystic Face:
    C: Saber is famous for being the most handsome man in the world. On social interactions with characters that could be influenced by such things Saber has a easier time to convince, trick, get information from, etc. This effect is natural consequence of Saber's good looks and charisma, so mental discipline is needed to resist it.

    ** A finely crafted one handed sword, and the manifestation of Sabers amazing skill as a swordmaster and his legend as the most skilled user of the one handed sword among the knights of the round table. A unique fighting style created after the loss of a arm. It is said that Saber can strike three men at once and that no three knights of the Round Table working together can draw as much blood from enemies as fast as Saber do. By calling it's name, Saber's speed is multiplied by the number of enemies he is fighting plus one.

    Info
    True Name:Zhou Tai
    Also known as: Youping(Style Name), General of Roused Valour,General who Pacifies the Caitiffs, Tiger's Bodyguard
    Gender:Male
    Alignment:Lawful neutral

    Parameters and Skills
    STR: C
    END: A
    AGI: C
    MGI: E
    LCK: A


    Class Skills


    Battle Continuation
    A - Is the strength of vitality for predicaments. In this rank its possible to fight even with deadly injuries and can remain alive so long as one does not receive a decisive fatal wound. Zhou Tai had to fight through multiple fights collecting multiple scars. To Zhou Tai as long as his lord is in trouble, there is no time to rest


    Magic Resistance
    B - This skill grants protection against magical effects. Differently from the Resistance effect that merely rejects prana, this ability cancels the spells altogether. Zhou Tai had some experience fighting against Buddhist and Taoist sects, so he gained some magical resistance as one of his lords were always being target from spells from those sects. With the addition of the class inherent magic resistance he can cancel spells with a chant below three verses. Even if targeted by High-Thaumaturgy and Greater Rituals, it is difficult for him to be affected.

    Personal Skills


    Voyager of the Storm
    B - This is the talent to impel a ship and those who the user identifies with. Because the ability as a group leader is also necessary, this unique Skill also has the effects of both Charisma and Military Tactics. Zhou Tai as an experient officer of Wu who fought bravely at ChiBi against Cao Cao, is pretty decent at commanding ships and executing orders


    Bravery
    A+ - This is the ability to negate mental interference such as pressure, confusion and fascination. Zhou Tai was feerless in the face of danger, specially if the person in danger was in his lord. Zhou Tai would literally throw himself in front of the swords, if it meant the survival of the Sun family. Besides the mental fortitude, Zhou Tai gains a raise on END if he is protecting someone



    Noble Phantasms

    Memories etched into your skin
    12 Scars
    This Noble Phantasm is the crystallization of Zhou Tai as the Sun Family bodyguard and take shape in the form of the first 12 wounds he took during the first time he saved Sun Quan. Having first worked with Quan's older brother Sun Ce, after being impressed in seeing Zhou Tai in action on the battlefield Sun Quan asked his older brother to have him in his unit, and soon Sun Ce left with his army to dispel rebels in another region while his brother stayed to defend the region. But thanks to negligence hundreds of rebels managed to ambush Sun Quan and his troops who caught unaware had no response to the attack. Only Zhou Tai rushed to protect Sun Quan at first, who was being rushed by the bandits. Sun Quan managed to barely escape with life and Zhou Tai got himself 12 deep wounds all over his body from the battle. If Zhou Tai wasn't there, Sun Quan would've surely perished.
    The Noble Phantasm represents Zhou Tai unshakable loyalty to his master, to whom Zhou Tai would give his life to, which is possible with this NP. In short, with it, every fatal damage taken by Zhou Tai's master will be transferred to Zhou Tai instead. Zhou Tai has 12 safe "deaths" that he can protect his master(or someone else under his master orders) from without causing much trouble. These 12 deaths are symbolized by the 12 scars Zhou Tai gained the day he saved Sun Quan. After a scar is wasted, then Zhou Tai will start to bleed from those that scar, but he will not feel any lasting damage. After those 12 scars are used up though, every damage taken will be transferred in full to Zhou Tai which will make him gain new scars and wounds all over his body
    Rank B - Anti Unit

    Standing on Honour or Shame, Sharing Joy or Sorrow
    Banquet at Ruxu
    Much like his previous Noble Phantasm was a crystallization of Zhou Tai's life as a bodyguard, this Noble Phantasm is a crystallization of Zhou Tai's life as a general, or more specifically about the day where he was finally fully accepted by his peers as one of the greatest officers in the Wu Kingdom. During Sun Quan's battle against Cao Cao, more specifically in the battle of Ruxu, an important strategic outpost, Zhou Tai was one of the leading men in the defense of the region who was crucial to the existence of Wu and Sun Quan gave to Zhou Tai the post of Controller of Ruxu and made him a general. But there were many commandants stationed at Ruxu such as Zhu Ran and Xu Sheng who previously outranked Zhou Tai and refused to follow his orders seeing him only as a common fighting man. When Sun Quan heard about this he travalled down to Ruxu to rectify the situation in a somewhat unusual way.
    Sun Quan threw a banquet and had Zhou Tai's as the guest of honor. Sun Quan personally served wine to him as a sign of the immense respect he had for him, then ordered Zhou Tai to strip revealing his body covered head to toe with scars and wounds as if he was tortured with a knife. Sun Quan would then point to each scar and asked to Zhou Tai to explain the story behind those scars. By the end of it, after hearing how many battles he was in, how many times he had distinguished himself and how many times he had sacrificed his body to either save his lord or one of his comrades, his previous rebellious subordinates couldn't help but look at him with immense respect and no one dared to speak a word of complaint to him. Afterwards, Sun Quan with tears rolling on his face hugged him and calling him by his courtesy name treating him as a equal said

    "Youping, you've fought like bears and tigers for me and my brother. You were willing to lay down your life and you've sustained wounds all over your body. [The scars] appear as though they have been etched into your skin. How can I not treat you like a brother, and not grant you any military appointments? You've rendered meritorious service to Wu, and I'll stand by you whether in honour or shame, and I'll share joy and sorrow with you. Youping, be merry. Don't be disheartened by the fact that you come from a humble background."

    Afterwards Sun Quan bestowed Zhou Tai with the Sun's family Imperial Parasol and asked Zhou Tai to use it in all of occasions to prove his glory.
    This NP takes form as very long green Parasol, which is the Imperial Parasol gifted to him by Sun Quan. Normally the Parasol is constantly closed and functions as an unbreakable rank C Noble Phantasm that Zhou Tai uses as his personal weapon. Its true strength only takes form once Zhou Tai has gained at least 6 new wounds, or spent 6 of the 12 scars and once those requirements are met then Zhou Tai will be able to open that Parasol. When Zhou Tai opens his parasol and stands under it, Zhou Tai will heal all damage to him leaving only the scars and one of his parameters of his choice will permanently will rank up. After it the Parasol will close only to be open after the requirements are met. It is possible to "store" more wounds so when he cashes in with this NP its effect will be doubled.
    On a side-note the heal that this NP gives will not refresh the 12 Scars Noble Phantasm
    Rank A - Anti-Unit

    Sorry for the double-post.
    This Servant was inspired on the "The object to your immediate right is your catalyst for the Grail War" thread

    Caster
    Faceclaim

    Info
    True Name:Thomas Alva Edison
    Also known as: The Wizard of Menlo Park
    Gender:Male
    Alignment:Lawful Good(Actually Neutral Evil)

    Parameters and Skills
    STR: E
    END: E
    AGI: E
    MGI: B
    LCK: B

    Class Skills

    Item Construction
    C -This is the skill to manufacture magical items. Caster can make by himself most technological inventions, but they can take time and he is not particularly good with the understanding of magical items with this rank

    Territory Creation
    A - This is the skill to build a special terrain that is advantageous to oneself as a magus. Edison can build a R&D Lab that differently from a temple, is purely made to help with his Item Creation skill, making him able to make more and more complex items faster than it normally should be. the R&D Lab starts being used only by Caster will only raise that skill a just a bit, but a well equipped R&D Lab with people and money thrown in it would reach truly absurd levels of science. To an outsider entering a properly equipped Lab would be like walking into a set of a sci-fi movie.
    Once someone said "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." and this skill makes Caster able to reach those levels and beyond using purely human skill & technology. With the Lab, Caster could potentially mass produce Items near the quality of a Noble Phantasm and even replicate True Magic.
    "useful things every man, woman, and child in the world wants at a price they could afford to pay"
    One could say this is Caster true strength rather than his Noble Phantasm.

    Personal Skills


    Golden Rule
    B - This skill measures one's fortune to acquire wealth. Thanks to his numerous patents Caster has a low but steady flow of wealth constantly reaching him but all that wealth is automatically spent on his R&D Lab and he is able to use only about 10% of that fortune freely.

    Subversive Activities
    A+ - This is the talent to reduce the enemy forces in the preliminary stages, before going into battle.However, the higher is the ranking of this Skill, the more one's spiritual status as a hero declines. Like what he did against another rival scientist, Castle is able to slander and create a bad publicity against someone character. Caster is able to change his opponent character in the perception of the world. Their alignment will seemingly change, normal people will see them in bad light and their will be unable to fully draw mana from the grail, while Caster will be seen in a more favorable light to the rest of the world

    Noble Phantasms

    A Full Record of All Inventions.
    The Edison Papers
    This Noble Phantasm symbolizes Caster innumerous patents, making him the most prolific scientist in existence, a record he still holds today. But in truth, Caster was not the one that invented everything, a big part of it was members of his R&D lab and even other people, but thanks to some arguably shady business practice he is able to claim ownership over them. With this Noble Phantasm Caster is able to somewhat recreate that and take ownership from his rival's noble phantasm.


    First Caster has to see the Noble Phantasm in action and try to understand all the mechanics that goes in the work of that Noble Phantasm. He uses in this step his Item Construction skill and that step can take a while depending on Noble Phantasm, Lu Bu's God Force that is an almost purely mechanical Noble Phatasm can be understood reasonably quick compared to say Caster's Spellbook that is completely magical. After it Caster will written on a paper how that Noble Phantasm works and how he could reach those effects using his skills and if his explanation is serviceable the paper will glow and Caster will gain full ownership of that Noble Phantasm. What Caster is doing is essentially rewriting history so to make him the one who invented that Noble Phantasm.
    Now with full ownership Caster is able to create(or even mass produce depending on how high his Item Construction skill is at the moment) the Noble Phantasm, and whenever someone else uses that Noble Phantasm, that someone else has to pay "royalties" in form of Mana to caster. Constant use of that Noble Phantasm will constantly drain mana from that someone else until they're unable to use the Noble Phantasm.
    There are Noble Phantasms that Caster isn't fully able to replicate like Excalibur and Ea, but he could theoretically reach an effect closer to it
    Anti-Unit - Rank A

  9. #9709
    Class: Lancer

    Identity: Zhao Yun / Zhao Zilong
    Alternate Classes: Saber (with legendary sword from Cao Cao), Rider (with White Dragon as mount)


    • STR: C
    • END: D
    • AGI: A
    • MGI: D+
    • LCK: E


    Class Skill

    Magic Resistance (D): Cancel Single-Action spells. Magic Resistance of the same degree of an amulet that rejects magical energy.

    Personal Skills

    Riding (A): All creatures but those of Phantasmal Beast and Divine Beast-rank can be used as mounts. This rank is high enough to have aptitude for the Rider Class. His riding ability is depicted in a mural "Zhao Yun's fight at Changban" inside the Long Corridor on the grounds of the Summer Palace in Beijing, China. This is further supported by his ability to tame and ride "White Dragon", one of the fastest horse in that era, losing only to the Red Hare.

    Bravery (A): Ability to nullify mental interference such as coercion, confusion, and glamours. Also damage in melee combat also increases slightly. His bravery is shown in many battles. The most well known case is the Battle of Changban where he single-handedly saved Liu Bei's infant son, Liu Shan from 5000 Elite Infantry. He is praised by Liu Bei as absolute embodiment of courage” ( 一身是膽) , while his fellow soldiers honoured him with the title “Mighty Tiger General” (虎威將軍). His bravery is not only acknowledged by his peers and lord, but also by the enemy leader, such as Cao Cao.

    Charisma (C) (B): Was born with rank B, but was toned down to C because of his humble personality and decision to serve Liu Bei as subordinate. As rank C, he is suitable for a high officer of a country. Zhao Yun is known as perfect warrior - one who possesses powerful combat skills, unwavering loyalty to his lord, tremendous courage, keen intelligence, strong belief in justice and handsome appearance.

    Eye of Mind (True) (B): Capable of calm analysis of battle conditions even when in danger and deduce an appropriate course of action after considering all possibilities to escape from a predicament. So long there is even a 1% chance of a comeback, this ability greatly improves the chances of winning.

    Son of Dragon (C): Not literally son of dragon but one who born or possess the blood of dragon. That person receives a rank or all rank boosts. In the lost ancient folklore, Zhao Yun is said to be the descendant of dragon. His alias Zilong (literally mean son and dragon) supported it. In his case, Zhao Yun has mediocre ranked dragon’s blood. His mana is given a modifier, D to D+. He can doubles his mana temporarily but not permanent because he is not pure dragon blooded.

    Noble Phantasm


    • Gaikakusou - None Surpassing it, Even in the Heavenly Sea of Stars
    • 涯角槍 - 生涯に敵う者なし
    • B-A++ (Effective Rank: B+)
    • Anti-Army


    Gaikakusou is one of the strongest spear in the China. Gaikakusou power is superior than Green Crescent Moon Blade of Guan Yu. Gaikakusou is a Noble Phantasm made by the Phantasmal Being: Yellow Dragon while the latter is made by Azure Dragon. The reason it is stronger is because half of Guan Yu's weapon was made by human while Gaikakusou is made completely by the Phantasmal Being. However, despite being the stronger weapon, Zhao Yun had never defeat Guan Yu because he couldn't unleash the full potential of the mythical spear.

    Upon activation by shouting its name, it causes large tornado around the spear. It absorbs prana from the surrounding and also the owner. Then the tip of the spear explodes, causing a large explosion of mana. Zhao Yun normally swings his spear on the ground and blast all enemy away including himself. Blasting himself to the sky is the best way to minimize the backfire damage. Of course he can choose to throw the spear instead, but the reason he did not is obvious as it will make him unarmed until he retrieves it.

    The prana capacity is extremely large. Technically speaking when it is fully filled with prana, it can deal A++ ranked damage. However, it is an impossible mission to Zhao Yun as the channeling process is way too short. It lasts only a few seconds, and cannot be extended unless one is Phantasmal Beast or has the blood of Phantasmal Beast (with Son of Dragon, he is able to extend an extra second). Apart from that, Zhao Yun is not a skilled magus, thus his transfer rate of mana to the spear is slow. Zhao Yun at most, with the help of Magus and also his personal skill "Son of Dragon", can only achieve rank B+.

    Well, its an interesting adaptation of Zhao Yun, though in my mind some of the skills seem a little off

    For example, i don't personally agree with the usage of Charisma on non-statesmen specially with A as the rating

    Just a question though, is his (very japanese sounding)Spear something you created or is this something from his legend?

    (Gaikakusou / Shore Edge) Yajiao Qiang 涯角枪 - 海角天涯无对, in Chinese
    It's a legendary spear mentioned in (三国志评话, Sanguozhi Pinghua), earlier version of RotK. I don't use Chinese because not everyone know how to pronounce it and Japanese definitely sound cooler :P just like Kanshou Bakuya (Gan Jiang and Mo Ye in chinese). The origin however, was created by myself because the background of the spear was barely mentioned. I made it as strong as possible because it is roughly translated as unmatched to the end of shore edge. If it is unmatched, then it is supposed to be made by non human being, after all Moon Crescent Blade and Snake Lance were made by dragon and giant snake (in some folktales).

    About the Charisma, I think I will decrease it to C B (since he didn't become a king). At first it was B, but my friend suggest for A because he is popular and the lore of A is "...achieved the greatest level of popularity as a human being".

    Oh, i see.I think this a fine sheet.
    At first i wasn't keen on the "Gaikakusou is stronger then Guan Yu's blade" deal, because in my mind there are clear powerlevels in ROTK and they are
    A)Lu Bu, Guan Yu
    B)Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, Zhang Liao
    C)The Rest
    But on a 2nd view to it, i realize Berserker Lu Bu is statwise much stronger than Zhao Yun so its nothing really.

    On a sidenote, if i were to do Zhao Yun, i would probably change the Luck Stat for the END stat, considering that one of the myths involving Zhao Yun is that he never bled in a fight, but when his wife prickled him with a needle in jest he bled profusely and died. But thats just me

    I probably won’t chg his luck because I like the trend "Lancer's Luck is always E". I also take into account of the folklore you mentioned. That was a pitiful death, so E luck is justified lol.

    About his END, that is a good point but I will chg it to D instead. I would have put E- in normal circumstance, I believe not even a fragile shakespeare would die from a needle prick. The reason I didn't is because I have decided to add some twists in his lore (still wip) to make it more interesting and logical lol, for example, the needle his wife pinned on him is a witch's needle.

    Class: Assassin (Alternatively, Rider, Lancer)
    True Name: Tarzan
    Alignment: Lawful Neutral
    Place of Birth: England
    Original Lifetime: Late 1800's, early 1900's.

    Stats:
    STR: C+
    AGI: B
    END: D
    MGI: E
    LCK: C
    NP: C

    Class Skills:

    Presence Concealment: C++

    Hides ones presence as a person and Servant. Suitable for spying. Increases significantly in performance in nature, and becomes nearly undetectable in the jungle.

    Personal Skills:

    Riding: B-

    Expertise in the usage of vehicles or riding animals.

    Tarzan can effectively ride any modern animal, up to Monstrous Beast-class, but cannot ride modern vehicles unless he takes a considerable amount of time learning how to.

    Charisma: D

    The natural talent to command an army. Increases the ability of allies during group battles. It is a rare talent.

    While he is not entirely used to commanding humans, he inspires fierce loyalty in both animals and his human friends alike.

    Animal Dialogue: A+

    The ability to communicate with animals, creatures that do not speak a “language of words.” At this rank, very complex nuances can be conveyed without issue, and even advanced language use like wordplay can be understood by all animals and Phantasmal Beasts who do not possess higher intelligence. It is even possible to teach animals a human language.

    Omniglot: B

    Tarzan learns a new language in days, and consequently has come to know an absurd amount of languages, including that of the great apes, French, English, Dutch, German, Swahili, many Bantu dialects, Arabic, ancient Greek, ancient Latin, Mayan, the languages of the Ant Men and of Pellucidar.

    Natural Body: E

    The possession of a perfect body since birth. Tarzan's STR is always treated as Rank-Up. Tarzan's body will remain in perfect shape so long as he keeps up a healthy diet.

    Noble Phantasm:

    Son of Man
    No One Is Here To Take Your Hand
    : C

    This Noble Phantasm can be said to be one Tarzan developed as a child, when he promised his adoptive mother-ape Kala to become the greatest ape to ever live. It is what allowed him to adapt to life in the jungle in a matter of months, and eventually what let him build the strength to wrestle rhinos and the dinosaurs of Pellucidar when he became a man. It is the ability to adapt at lightning speeds to circumstances, and would let him figure out even intricate attack patterns and inhuman levels of skill and adapt it for his own use . If he were to suffer great injury, his body would also automatically begin developing increased toughness in the future, for the hypothetical situation that he would suffer the same injury again. It is the ultimate ability that embodies "survival of the fittest".

    Isn't he more suited for the Modern Fiction thread?

    Or was Tarzan based on a real Lord Greystoke? My Edgar Rice Burroughs is weak.

    Eh, he's from an early 1900's novel series, so I was kinda shoving him in here on the same basis as Fragments!Dr. Jekyll

    Jekyll was pre-1900. Get your modern filth out of here, Chris.

    Kind of a crazy coincidence, but I was planning on posting this one today! Probably pushes the limits of what can be considered a fairytale, and his profile's definitely the most bare-bones of the set, so might as well get him out of the way.

    faceclaim

    "...!"

    Name: Mowgli, Wild Child of Pench
    Class: Berserker
    Alignment: Neutral Insane

    STR: D
    AGI: C
    CON: D
    MGI: E
    LCK: B
    NP: B


    Class Skills:

    Mad Enhancement
    Raises basic parameters in exchange of hindering mental capacities.
    • E: While it is not true 'madness' and rather the product of having an animalistic mentality, Strength and Agility may be increased at the cost of cutting off higher intelligence.



    Personal Skills:

    Animal Dialogue
    Communication of intention with animals that don't speak a "language of words".
    • A: The absolute level where one can communicate with animals just as easily as one would with humans, if not more so. Complex nuances and ideas can easily be conveyed regardless of the host creature's intelligence, and all forms of animal may be communicated with. The Servant is also treated as an animal or Beastkind for all relevant effects. Due to the unique structuring of Berserker's intelligence, this ability is available even while Mad.


    Favoured Terrain
    Receives bonuses when acting within a particular terrain. With this skill, an E rank indicates that one has already 'mastered' a single environment, with each successive rank merely adding an additional terrain.

    • E: Combat potential and basic abilities are enhanced when in areas that could be considered Jungles. Due to the unique structuring of Berserker's intelligence, this ability is available even while Mad.


    Hunter's Instinct
    A talent with regards to seeking out and butchering prey.
    • B: Berserker is capable of tracking and pursuing a target indefinitely provided advanced Magecraft or a Noble Phantasm is not used to cover their escape, functioning as an equivalent rank in Presence Concealment. Natural hunting techniques are used to guarantee both effective tailing and a high chance of landing a sneak attack on one's prey. Due to the unique structuring of Berserker's intelligence, this ability is available even while Mad.



    Noble Phantasms:

    Name:
    Fire
    Man's Red Flower

    Rank: B
    Type: Anti-Unit
    Fire, the gift of Man - while this is in essence merely a burning fire-pot that was constructed in the 19th century, when Mowgli stole fire from a village of men he did, quite inadvertently, recreate the very act by which ancient Man has stolen fire from the divines in countless mythologies. Beyond that, is was that moment wherein humanity first discovered fire and its potential as both tool and weapon perfectly recreated. Thus, when summoned as a Servant, this flame has become conceptually fused with the very notion of 'Fire', and all that accompanies it; the various lessons and discoveries that all began with mankind's discovery of flame.

    That being said... while it is an immensely powerful conceptual force and is thus incredibly difficult to extinguish, this Noble Phantasm has limited applications in direct combat. All animals, regardless of how well-disciplined or trained they may be, will ultimately flee in the face of this Noble Phantasm, for it is the ultimate representation of Man's right and desire to dominate all that he surveys. In addition, it counters the effects of 'Anti-Human' or 'Anti-Knowledge' effects of an equivalent or lower rank, while also possessing the destructive potential of any natural flame.

    Due to his 'human' intelligence being in essence sealed off while it in effect, this Noble Phantasm cannot be properly utilised while under the effects of Mad Enhancement.

    Name:
    Ankus of Kings
    Which Men Will Kill For

    Rank: A++ (C)
    Type: Anti-Unit
    A hook-like tool primarily used in the taming of elephants, this Noble Phantasm is extravagantly decorative, having once been the property of a mighty king of the Central Indian region, a sign of his authority and right to rule, which changed hands repeatedly as would-be usurpers and skilled assassins seized the object in hopes of legitimising their own reigns, having it fulfill the same purpose as a ceremonial dagger or kris in other Indian traditions. The ankus' effect is truly spectacular, having the power to induce total obedience in an elephant merely by making contact with its skin, a feat that becomes all the more remarkable when one remembers that the elephant was once classified as a form of Divine Beast - known for their great wisdom and destructive power. With the ability to control such creatures, the ankus' power extends to all forms of animal, making the king who wields it in essence the truest 'King of the Jungle' who may ever live.

    ... Or so it would be, if not for the fact that the tool's true name is forever lost, and thus now it is used as a mere blade by Berserker when he is summoned. The mancub Mowgli acquired and quickly abandoned the blade over the course of his lifetime, and it is this mere coincidence, this short-lived contact that causes the Grail to interpret it as his Noble Phantasm. While Berserker is unable to actualise its true power, this Noble Phantasm also provides a passive effect that he can make use of; the Ankus of Kings fundamentally rejects anyone other than its potential wielders from coming into contact with it, and thus enemies who cannot be rightfully classified as 'Kings' suffer a drop of two ranks in all parameters when attempting to attack Berserker, as they do not possess the right to seize it for their own. In fact, Berserker himself is only capable of carrying it due to the blade interpreting him as an animal, and thus 'an entity it is intended to come into contact with.'

    detail
    Detail:

    A feral child who appears in the short stories of Rudyard Kipling, a boy of Indian descent who was stolen from his home in a tiger attack, taken in by the wolves Rama and Raksha, and then raised by their pack. While the tiger Shere Khan, ever one to despise Man and his works demanded the boy's life, he was refused, and the boy now called Mowgli grew up surrounded by brother wolves, who named him Mowgli the Frog for his furless and jittery nature. Like this, he became well-known for his skill at removing the thorns from his brother's paws, and for how he could fearlessly stare down any wolf. It was not long before he was accepted truly into the pack at the Council Rock, and quickly befriended Bagheera the panther, who knew well of Man's nature, and Baloo the bear, who would teach him the lore of the jungle.

    Despite learning much in this time, the threat of Shere Khan's wrath continued to hang over him in this time, though it would be long before he would be able to address it. Instead, he was forced into action when Akela, head of his pack, failed to achieve a kill when hunting and risks the wrath of the group - to defend him, Mowgli stole fire from a nearby village on Bagheera's urging, and was able to repel all who thought to harm his friend. While he succeeded in this endeavour, it was this event in particular that made it clear to him that he was a man, one who could not live in the jungle forever.

    After an encounter with the hypnotic Kaa the python, and in saving Bagheera, Mowgli did once again encounter Shere Khan, who proclaimed that he had killed a Man not for food but for pleasure, and learned the story of how it was the tiger who first brought fear to the jungle. In this time as well, Mowgli was adopted by a human village, raised by his original mother Messua, though the two never did truly bond as family should nor did they ever prove their connection. Emboldened and learning that Shere Khan still had his sights on him even then, the boy was able to use a herd of buffalo and two of his fellow wolves, he was able to corner the great beast and kill him where he stood, bringing an end to both his tyranny and in turn forever casting off his own fears and being reborn. While there are a great many adventures both before after and between these events, one could argue the story truly ends when a seventeen year-old Mowgli, struggling between his identity as a wolf and a Man, quite accidentally encountered a boy of the same age named Kipling who had returned to India seeking employment, and the rest plays out as one might imagine.

    Summoned to the Berserker class, Mowgli is stoic but confident, his reluctance to make use of his Class Skill belying a certain arrogance, though at the same time he is sincere and firmly honest. He appears to regard his 'resurrection' as a Servant as some manner of abomination in a way, and while he has no issue in proving his skills, he will not fight nor engage with his enemy recklessly. In conversation he manages to be entertaining, if not playful, though seemingly awkward, and the knowledge of modern human society that has been stored within him does more to irritate him than provide any benefit. ... Unlike many Servants, he lacks a wish for the Grail, and despite his pure humanity his thoughts appear far too earnest and animal-like to see it as an object of any real worth.

    He apparently finds the more popular portrayals of him in today's culture both confusing and oddly insulting.
