I still think it's functionally one chain even if it is summoned from multiple portals. Gilgamesh also refers to it as the Chain of Heaven, singular.

Creator Notes: I was reading up on the Tyrfing Cycle and thought there could be a cool servant there but then I realized how cool it would be if there was a servant that wasn’t actually a heroic spirit but rather the sword many heroic spirits wielded. I imagine an alternate Fate Stay Night where Shirou uses Tyrfing and bonds with it deeply to the point Tyrfing almost becomes sentient just in time for a tearful goodbye. The losing its blade thing is something I came up with because I just thought that it sounded pretty cool and tragic in a very nasuverse type way.

Tyrfing: Interesting idea, but I'm a little spoiled by how the winning entry of the first Servant contest used roughly the same concept of a Servant Tyrfing that possesses/uses its wielders, only executed with much more flavor and detail. No offense, but your take seems a lot more generic by comparison.
Also, while I like how you tried to go for a more tragic/sympathetic take on Tyrfing, I'm curious how you reconcile it being (in the myths) a cursed sword that revels in slaughter with its stated dislike of dishonorable killing. You could've done something interesting with it, like having Tyrfing be traumatized by the violence and deaths its curse wrought, but instead you don't really address that duality at all. Instead, Tyrfing just comes off as a generic "honorable living weapon" sort of character, which doesn't really fit its depiction in the myths at all IMO.
Also, on a more technical note I'm curious what the justification for Tyrfing's EX-ranked Endurance is. Was the sword ever described in the myths as being indestructible like Durandal?

Finally got to remake this sheet. I think she really needed and deserved it.

I sort of figured that it wasn't Tyrfing causing the slaughter but rather the greed of those around him. Like it wasn't the sword that caused Heidrik to be such a jerk. Similar to the ring in the Ring Cycle while you can say the ring was cursed it was the man's own lust for power that caused the conflict. As for the EX endurance I sort of made a mistake and assumed that part of the legend of it was it being unbreakable but it's only that its unrustable and can cut through anything. I guess I'll change it to just being A+ ranked.
Also I just read the Tryfing sheet for the Create a Servant contest and hot damn yeah that's leagues above what I made. Although I feel we went in different directions with the idea of a living weapon servant theirs being more a malevolent exception that couldn't exist normally while mine is more of a traditional servant of sorts.

I guess that's fair enough. It's just that the History section you wrote very much implies it was a literal curse. And personally, I feel Tyrfing's personality would be more interesting if the sword was literally cursed, but at the same time hated itself for the death and destruction it brought. But that's just my take. This is your sheet so obviously you're free to go with what you think fits best.

Mmm... I always love me a good China servant. <3
Though I am surprised given the focus on revenge, you didn't go all the way and just make him an Avenger instead of just mentioning it as a possible alternate Class.

Ares: Interesting, if simple, sheet. Not sure how well Bravery fits Ares though given he was described as running away from battle several times in the myths, but I can see you wanted a second Personal Skill since just giving him Embodiment Of War would be too one-note. Out of curiosity, how do you see him interacting with my Otrera?
- - - Updated - - -
Also, FYI, that faceclaim isn't showing up properly for me.
I knew I should have gone with Disengage instead of Bravery. About Otrera, I'm sure he'd feel very comfortable with her, since she's very similar to his non-mad self and he really likes the Amazons.
The FC appears in my computer, but not in my phone for some reason. I'll change it for a better one
AWAKEN MY RULERS
For my part, I kind of imagine a meeting between Otrera and Ares as like Ban and Meliodas reuniting in Nanatsu No Taizai.
The two just immediately start throwing punches at each other and laughing like maniacs. Everyone around them freaks out, but it turns out that's just their foreplay.
Well, I said Ares would feel comfortable, and what would be the most comfortable situation for a god of war, if it's not a fight?
BTW, as much as I hate begging, do you have any comments on my re-made Inari?
AWAKEN MY RULERS
Well if criticism is alright with you, her NP is not very exciting.
Maybe it's thematically fitting for her, but I think the effect can be a little bit spiced more to distinguish herself with other area healing NP?
Yeah, I have to admit it's pretty bland, but I couldn't think of anything much better than that. I didn't want a temple NP, but I wanted a NP representing her role as a goddess of rice and of prosperity, hence its effects
AWAKEN MY RULERS
mmm... giving suggestion for effect is not really my style of helping, but maybe, try to add something based of the 'transform into a bird' part or the rice itself has an effect.

Don't change it if you think its already perfect tho, I don't want to influence people
