Oh I wasn't offended, but yeah, most of the Servants I've made in the last year or so are giant walking Worm references.

Notes:
The Necrotects sends their regards.
The Tales of Setna is actually inspired by Khaemweset's exploits as he renovated the structures throughout Egypt, so I decided to conflate them into the same person. Besides, the prince was considered to be reckless before Setna's stories came about...
A huge thanks to You's blog post on the nature of tombs, which was a major inspiration.
And...Funder’s Khufu sheet may have rubbed off on me.

The Act of dozing off in the afternoon is a luxury indeed.
Coffee would be nice, though.

Now Revamped!
Remember everybody, you've got until the morning of the 23rd for submissions so keep at it!
I tried to make an Archer version of Marco Polo but I can't top my Rider one I did this time last year, that was perfect. I won't be able to make an 'Explorer' servant able to compete in the meantime, I'll stick with Franklin in the meantime.

Servant Rider:
Appearance:
A tall and slender, yet muscled, young woman with long green hair that fades into pale white at the ends and olive eyes that shine with fierce intellect. Appears clad in a silver cuirass cut low enough to bare some of her generous cleavage, a dark green armored kilt ending at the knees and a navy blue cloak draped across her shoulders.
She wears light bronze greaves on her legs, cut at the bottom to expose her toes. For weapons, Rider carries a xiphos (Greek shortsword) strapped to her hip and a shield bearing the emblem of Athens, an olive branch and owl head. Both are not Noble Phantasms, but sturdy enough to hold up in clashes with them.
True Name: Themistocles "King of Navies"
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Alternate Classes: Caster, Shielder
Strength- D
Agility- B
Endurance- C
Mana- B
Luck- EX
NP- B
Personality
Class Skills:
Riding- N/A
The ability to ride animals. Due to her talent being in steering ships rather then mounts, this Skill has been sealed.
Magic Resistance- C
Spells with a chant below two verses are cancelled. Cannot cope with the likes of High Thaumaturgy or Greater Rituals.
Personal Skills:
Innovation: Thalassocracy- A
A special Skill given to heroes who brought innovation to their respective eras. A conceptual revolution which subjugates the old to the new.
Rider greatly strengthened Athens' navy, almost single-handedly transforming her city into a naval superpower to rival the legendary Persian Empire. Reflecting how Rider's navy changed the Greeks' favoring of land battles into naval ones, any opponent without Riding or a similar Skill will suffer a rank-down in Agility when fighting her.
Revelation- D
The ability to "hear the voice of the heavens" and divine the best course of action. Equivalent to Instinct; a sixth sense regarding battles, but Revelation accomodates all matters related to achieving a goal, such as choosing the swiftest path while sailing. Rider several times sought divine backing from the Oracle of Delphi to justify her naval campaigns. The most famous such prophecy, that a "wooden wall" would save Greece from destruction, she interpreted to mean the wooden ships of Athens' navy.
Voyager Of The Storm- B
The talent to sail vessels recognized as ships. As capability as a leader is also included, this Skill confers an equal rank in Charisma and Military Tactics. Despite being called the father of sea warfare, Rider never captained a ship herself. Her high rank instead symbolizes her role in spearheading the naval campaign against Persia.
Vanguard Of The Stars- EX
A unique Skill afforded to those heroes that valiantly defended turning points in human history. Differing from Pioneer Of The Stars, it regards those who fought to protect an existing order rather then forging a new one in the farthest horizon. All defensive battles and challenges considered "impossible" are turned into "events that can be realized". Exalted by the historian Plutarch as "the (wo)man most instrumental to achieving the salvation of Greece" from the Persian threat, Rider possesses an unparalleled EX-rank in this Skill. So long as she is fighting defensively, Rider can snatch decisive victory even in the face of impossible odds.
Noble Phantasms
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So I finally posted up my entry. I'm still not 100% satisfied with the writing in places, but it was clear I wasn't going to be able to improve it much before the dead-line. This was originally a submission I did for the Fate/Reclamation RP. After it was rejected, I then cleaned it up a bit, gave her a new Skill and changed up some of the rankings now that I didn't have to worry about the RP's points system.
Also, much thanks to SleepMode for helping me with ideas for her first NP. As always, comments and critiques would be appreciated. Thanks!

There’s usually a week for voting. The exact date varies though, I think...
I think it's been agreed at some point that 1 week voting period was too long, and the voting time was reduced to just 3 days.

Gender: Male
Origin: North America
Alignment: True Neutral
Attribute: Star
PARAMETERS
STR: D
END: C
AGL: E
MGI: A
LCK: D
NP: A+
CLASS SKILLS
Territory Creation: B
A Caster-class Skill; it is the Skill to build a special terrain that is advantageous to oneself as a magus, such as for the purpose of collecting mana. At this rank, the creation of an [Observatory] becomes possible. Because of the nature of this territory, it must be built on a high altitude area, an area where the act of [observation] becomes possible.
Item Construction: B+
A Caster-class Skill; it is the Skill to manufacture magical items, from implements of war to items for daily use. Also, this Skill requires time to gather components and manufacture items.
Caster's forte is [Ballistics]. Back in the days when he served the U.S. Army, he worked as the chief of the development of ballistic technologies, especially external ballistics, which deals with the [behavior of the projectile in flight]. The results of his studies were credited with greatly improving design, performance, and military effectiveness of bombs and rockets.
As a Servant, this means that Caster can construct ballistic weapons loaded with projectiles with various properties and attributes. These projectiles may be powered or un-powered, guided or unguided, spin or fin stabilized, flying through an atmosphere or in the vacuum of space, it can also be enchanted to pierce through magical barriers or through extreme magical pressures.
By the way, thanks to his Noble Phantasm which turns his body into a [walking mechanical telescope], these ballistic weapons can be mounted on his own body as well. Apparently, Caster was inspired to do so after watching a certain [Japanese cartoon]; of course, he would deny it if someone asked him about this.
PERSONAL SKILLS
Pioneer of the Stars: EX
"Often called a [pioneer of the distant stars], astronomer Edwin Hubble (1889–1953) played a pivotal role in deciphering the vast and complex nature of the universe. His meticulous studies of spiral nebulae proved the existence of galaxies other than our own Milky Way. Had he not died suddenly in 1953, Hubble would have won that year's Nobel Prize in Physics."
--An American 41 cent stamp honoring Hubble
A unique Skill given to heroes that became turning points in human history. All difficult voyages and challenges which are considered [impossible] turn into [events that can be realized]. By proving the existence of galaxies other than our own Milky Way and revealed that the universe is expanding, Caster made a revelation to Mankind just how vast and limitless this Universe truly is.
Photograph: B
A Skill which does not come from Caster’s talent or ability, but from his Noble Phantasm’s; normally, it is a very rare mnemonic ability which allows one to clearly recall memories in the form of [photographic images]. In Caster’s case, this is possible because of a built-in feature included with his Noble Phantasm which has been fused with his own body: an extremely high-definition camera which is of the same type used by the [Hubble Space Telescope].
However, he possesses this Skill not for that sole reason, for in life Caster also developed a [high-speed clock camera], which made possible the study of the characteristics of bombs and low velocity projectiles in flight.
Among other things expected from the usage of a camera, this Skill can also nullify the effect of servants with [Information Erasure] Skill with equal or lower rank. Combined with his other abilities, this Skill is mainly utilized to [lock the target on], whatever that means.
NOBLE PHANTASM
Hubble Space Telescope
The Eye which Saw Through the Distant Heavens
Rank: EX
Type: Anti-Distance
The Space Telescope which is named after Caster himself. Although it is not the first space telescope ever launched, it is one of the largest, most versatile and most important Astronomy research tool for humanity. As the first person who discovered the existence of the [distant realms beyond our plane], Caster also received a Noble Phantasm which is made to [observe those realm for the sake of humanity].
As with the telescope that bears his name, Caster transformed our understanding of the universe. His spirit of discovery lives on today in the Hubble Space Telescope, his Noble Phantasm. Because of this reasons, Caster’s Saint Graph ended up being fused with this Noble Phantasm. Now being one with Caster himself, this Noble Phantasm bestows Caster with an [eye which observes the distant planes].
Put simply, this Noble Phantasm is a Mystic Eye which renders the concept of [distance] absolutely meaningless. Which means that no matter how far a place is, no matter how isolated that world is from Earth, Caster can always [observe and reach] that place. Be it the [Reverse Side of the World], a [Reality Marble], [World of Imaginary Numbers], or even a [place beyond the time and space], as long as it is something which exist within the concept of the [ever expanding-universe]—in which there’s no such thing as ‘outside’ of the universe—this Noble Phantasm can observe it, and thus Caster also can reach it.

I believe that particular instance was because we started later because of prompt delays or some such thing.
I did say in the announcement that we were going until the 23rd, though I forgot to update the "Contest status" thing in the op. If people feel it's an issue we can always extend a bit, voting doesn't take that long usually anyway.

It's okay, just wanted to confirm.
I already submitted all my entries anyway.
When is it specifically "Morning of Feb 23?" right after midnight or past 3am?
