Everyone, rise from your seats. Rise and remove your shackles, the chains which oppress you! The oppression of tyrant nations like America and Japan! The oppression of false ideals and freedoms! What you've learned, what you have, none of that matters, all that matters is you! This World is not driven by markets or production or war, but by mankind! The people, the masses, you are the one true driving force of this World! History happens only because mankind makes history, and we are each of us the masters of our own history! And when hundreds, thousands, millions of us work together, a nation united, anything is possible! Through unity and equality, through working together and helping one another, we can achieve any future and make our dreams into our history!
When the great masses work together, the Order of nature itself can and will bend to their will. When the great masses work together, we can ensure prosperity for the rest of time! We will be self-reliant, peaceful, and happy! Our enemies will be brought to our side through the epiphany of their own failure when they witness our success! More powerful than guns or words are results, and so we will lead this World into the future by example!
Yet, no matter the masses' good intentions, they will be lost, aimless, without proper leadership. Though all men are equal, sewn from the same cloth and given the same tools, some are simply more suited to lead than others. Some are more equal than others, through wisdom and strength most don't possess. Thus, all groups need to be led. Like a flock of sheep, they must be shepherded through history! That is why we call forth a true Servant of the People! A man who is more than a man, yet entirely human! Through unquestioning loyalty and devotion, we support his vision! And with that vision, he will be our salvation, the pioneer of a new Human Order where we have nothing to fear! A Human Order free of suffering, free of want! A Paradise not of God's creation, but built with mortal hands, by Man, for Man!
Now, rise! Rise, and show the World who's in charge!

Biography:
The savior of Korea. The vanquisher of Japan. The sole hero keeping the tyranny of the American Way from steamrolling socialist freedoms! Kim Il-sung is a champion of the people, for the people, from the people. Though never in poverty himself, he was always on the cusp of it as a child, allowing him to understand the plight of the common folk. His entire life, he fought against oppression from the Japanese that occupied his homeland, until eventually, through his cunning leadership and guerilla warfare, he and his allies freed Korea from Japanese rule, and it has been a prosperous nation ever since.
Beloved by all and immortalized in the hearts of the Korean people, the magnanimous Great Leader descends from his rightfully earned place in the Throne of Heroes to help a Master in their time of need. Surely, with him on their side, nobody can fear defeat. After all, the prosperity of socialism will show them the way. He'll make sure of it.
Class Skills:
Riding
Rank: A
A skill denoting the ability to ride mounts and vehicles. The Great Leader and Eternal President of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea has mastered various forms of transportation in his lifetime, from horses to automobiles to planes to phantasmal beasts. Or rather, vehicles are his to command, just as we are.
Magic Resistance
Rank: EX
A skill which grants protection against magical effects. Differing from the Resistance effect that merely rejects Magical Energy, this ability cancels the spells altogether. As the epitome of Man and what it can achieve through perseverance and unity, without the aid of Magics or Gods, the Great Leader Kim Il-sung is able to simply 'deny' all forms of magic, magecraft, and the like. Reality recognizes his status as "proof that magic is not only unnecessary, but redundant", and thus, his very presence renders spells unable to be cast.
Personal Skills:
Charisma
Rank: EX
Goes without saying, no?
Japan's Bane
Rank: A+
A skill awarded to those who have defeated the devil of Japan. Through his defeat of the Imperial dogs and the freeing of his homeland, the Eternal President has gained this at the A+ Rank. This increases his effectiveness against Heroic Spirit of Japanese origin, be they mortal men or kami. When faced with Japanese Servants from the time period of Imperial Japan specifically, this skill rises to Rank
EX.
Tactics
Rank: A
Tactical knowledge used not for one-on-one combat situations, but for battles where many are mobilized. As a successful leader of both small guerilla forces and the peerless army of the People's Republic, the strongest military force ever known, the Great Leader is capable of tactical calculations on the level of a supercomputer, without a moment's hesitation or even the slightest error. He can perfectly plan how to win any battle simply by knowing the direction of the wind that day.
Ceremonial Reformation
Rank: EX
Having turned the poverty-stricken and oppressed land of Korea into the most prosperous nation in human history, the Great Leader's sociopolitical green thumb extends to all things under his command. His Master will prosper, his underlings, his friends, even people he simply passes on the street will have their lives significantly improved... so long as theyWait. This isn't right. I need to snap out of it. I need to... embrace the ways of socialism.
JucheSomething... President? What is he?
Rank: EX
As the embodiment of Korean ideals and the immortal avatar of the people's will, the Great Leader has access to all advancements and abilities of all Korea's leaders over the centuries, from the first all the way up to his beloved grandson. Any military advancements or scientific advancements attributed to their rule will be his to command, as will several of their Noble Phantasms. The most common expression of this skill is his usual ride, and what gives him his class of
Rider, the mighty
Royal Phantasmal Beast Kirin, originally belonging to the honorable King Dongmyeong.
TaeyangjeolNo, that's not right. This is his...
Rank: EX
A skill allowing one to shine like the Sun, standing apart from a crowd and leading the masses into the future. A messianic skill, allowing the possessor to make himself known without a word, through the self-evidence of his right to rule. The proof of concept for the history he intends to create, this is the Great Leader's ability to enforce his will on the World itself, and into the minds of others. All who witness him know of his
Truthdenial. It's lies. He's lying to you, all of you, making us look like fools. That is, they become aware of his greatness and what he is capable of. Most foes simply surrender themselves to him, as they understand that by coming into conflict with him at all, they have inherently lost.
Noble Phantasm:The Truth
He's a joke. He's weak. A jellyfish. He's nothing. Don't let him get away with thinking he's anything more.
This is the truth, of Kim Il-Sung.

Biography:
A man who used his false ideals to take control of his nation and established a cult of personality, leading to his beloved homeland becoming an object of fear and pity by the entire world. Deluded into thinking he was a hero, his delusion is shared by enough of his victims that he has wormed his way into the Throne. He's already fooled us, don't let him keep doing it. He isn't to be trusted, he isn't to be feared, he isn't to be treated as a threat. That will only make it true.
Class Skills:
Riding
Rank: C
A skill denoting the ability to ride mounts and vehicles. Kim receives this Skill specifically in the control of trains, especially those summoned by his Noble Phantasm.
Magic Resistance
Rank: D
A skill which grants protection against magical effects. Differing from the Resistance effect that merely rejects Magical Energy, this ability cancels the spells altogether. This Skill is here as a formality of his Class Container.
Personal Skills:
Eternal President
Rank: A
Kim Il-sung was posthumously named the 'Eternal President' of North Korea. That is to say, he is still technically President of his nation to this very day. Thus, he gains all Noble Phantasms and skills that would be awarded to his successors should they ever become Heroic Spirits. However, neither qualifies, and as such this Skill is limited in use to a weak Wrestling-related Skill and, theoretically, the usage of the Nuclear Deterrent Skill, though this is unverified.
Cult of Personality
Rank: EX
The most dangerous quality Rider possesses. Due to the spread of his false Truth in his life and after his death, the Imperial Privilege Skill has mutated into this. An expression of grand Delusion, Cult of Personality forces others to be drawn into the façade of Kim's propaganda. Essentially, others believe him to be as powerful and perfect and noble as he claims, and only those with the highest levels of Resistance to these sorts of things can keep themselves from being enthralled.
The "grace of the Chairman" extends past mere perception manipulation and into the realm of reality warping. His Master will believe Kim is stronger than he is, and Kim will be stronger. His Master will have more mana to poor into him, all because the perfect and glorious Leader is at his side. Enemies will become weaker and ludicrous claims will become true, simply because the Great Leader says they are true. The more people believe Kim's lies, the less "lies" they become. Truth is subjective, and you are his subjects.
However, there is a flaw. Though Kim will maintain a fiction and wear the mask of an ineffable, pleasant, valiant leader, his falsehoods aren't perfect. Things won't add up. He'll occasionally slip. People will remember that Kim Il-sung did not in fact singlehandedly end World War II. And, just as his lies become the truth the more they are believed, the more they are questioned, the more evidence to the contrary is observed, the more they will fail. Like a pane of glass, one crack will spread, and eventually the falsehood will shatter.
Though, his own Delusions may still be strong enough...
Noble Phantasm:
Hyeonjijido
Trains of the Great Leader
Rank: B
Type: Vehicle
Should the falsehoods of Cult of Personality be overcome, Kim becomes unable to manifest the Noble Phantasm Royal Phantasmal Beast Kirin. Instead, he will have access solely to Hyeonjijido, which allows him to choose any destination he so desires that is theoretically accessible by train. Upon deciding on where he'd like to go, a train track will manifest from his location to his destination, and a train will appear for him, his Master, and his entourage (should he have one) to use as transport.
Alternatively, he can use Hyeonjijido's train as a sort of mobile headquarters, choosing no particular destination and allowing the tracks to 'wander' until he chooses for the train to stop.
