Whoops. Whatever, I don't care now!
A cool sheet anyway.
While the ring is nothing particularly majestic in itself, it symbolizes and holds the divine favor of the sea-god in the form of three wishes.tl;dr enough?It can breath ardent flames, the seas rage in tempest at its passing, and its hooves can cause earthquakes, either through pure strength or as a magical, divine attribute
I saw that stuff and wondered if I'd just misinterpreted it as a Noble Phantasm that does literally nothing, but that seems to confirm I was correct, I just assumed otherwise since I thought it was a little odd.
The mount was my fault, I missed that he was only listed as Saber initially since I assumed the axe was an NP he had as Rider only and that I'd missed some condition to unseal the spoilered mount NP.
Not so much a tl; dr as misinterpretation. Cheers for clarifying.
The ring grants him three free wishes from Poseidon. In Mythology, he uses one to get his son killed. For the purpose of Nasuverse, they basically act like three command spells, although more rooted in wish-granting.
As Rider, he has access to the Axe and the Golden Ring, but not the Sword. The Axe is employed as a breakout weapon to test the opponent's fighting skills: since it isn't particularly telling of his identity, and can also throw off judgement to not reveal himself as servant Saber or Rider, since you don't expect either of them to employ a close-ranged weapon such as a double axe (incidentally, all of Theseus' NPs except maybe the are somewhat suited to go "unnoticed", since they are visually unremarkable and it takes hawk eyes to notic the small golden ring).
Cheers!
Well, in between working on my two Riders, I've been trying to start a Grail War RP on a little website I frequent as well. Most of them don't really know about Fate, and the only one who does probably doesn't come here, but just to be on the safe side I'll just post his Servant for now. I am the one who made it, though, he just told me who he wanted to summon.
Class: Assassin
Assassin
True Name: Hassan-i-Sabbah
Master: Johnathan Keyoni
Height: 186 cm
Weight: 77kg
Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Parameters:
STR: C
END: A
AGI: B
MGI: C
LUC: A
NP: B
Class Skills:
Presence Concealment -: The capacity to hide one's presence as a Servant. Due to Hassan’s Noble Phantasm, this skill has been lost.
Personal Skills:
Charisma B: The natural talent to command an army. Increases the ability of allies during group battles. Assassin having this skill at all, let alone at a rank high enough to be the king of a country, is incredibly unusual for his class, but appropriate for him.
Siege Tactics C: Tactical knowledge used not for one-on-one combat situations, but for sieges against fortified enemies. Bonus modifiers are provided during use of one's own Anti-Fortress Noble Phantasm or when dealing against an enemy Anti-Fortress Noble Phantasm. Assassins would typically infiltrate a castle to reach a specific target, but he is a unique exception.
Familiar (Assassins) C: Allows the use of Hashashin wraiths as familiars. Due to the nature of these familiars, Assassin must personally call them from the dead rather than using them as such without prior ritual. Summoning the Hashashin is not a form of magecraft, but something closer to Authority. Though they appear similar, the summoned wraiths are not those of the other Hassan-i-Sabbahs, but of lesser initiates, lacking their own personal Zabaniya and without parameters high enough to be ranked like a Servant’s. They can be directed by thought alone.
Noble Phantasms:
Zabaniya: Delusional Phantasm
Type: Anti-Unit
Rank: B
Range: -
Maximum Targets: -
The "ultimate killing technique" of Assassin, which he is never known to have used in life. Its details are unknown; only someone who recognized him as Hassan would even see this in Assassin's status, as it is impossible to witness this Noble Phantasm and survive.

As a certain celebration approaches, and as patriots are Type-moon’s new bread and butter, I have been inspired to write sheets for some Servants, for whom the holiday is important. Well, important to a mutual friend of theirs. The man himself would ”qualify” as Caster; I do not, however, yet possess the Nasu logic necessary to create a magus out of a poet. Perhaps some other day, when I ran out of my anti-psychotics by accident.
One of the other two is below, in his full splendor, at the maximum fame boost possible. The second will warrant some more research before I post him. They are rather low tier, since they lived in the mid-to-late 18th Century, and we aren’t on the intent to create Koha-Ace parodies here.
I do not find myself compatible with a person who had passionate hatred for his nation of birth, thus is the sheet the bare minimum. Just a test to see how good or bad my sheet design is. I hope you're satisfied, everyone<3

STR and END are a bit high for a non-famoust 1800's dude. Divinity doesn't convey "holy protection".
Ah, you're correct. Divinity cancels holy protection. Protection of The Faith would work, then?
As for his stats you mentioned, as was said, he sports his rather large fame advantage here. Anywhere else, they'd drop to C. I don't imagine he can even be summoned as a Saber when the summons isn't done close to home.
Edit: Which raises a query. Say you summon a Servant who only qualifies for the class in question with the home advantage. The Servant leaves the area afterwards. One would assume the statistics just fall below standard...but, maybe they pop out of existence, since the class designations are needed to keep them in the world?
Pretty sure that wouldn't happen. I don't know about the class container, but Arturia and Diarmuid were summoned in Europe and retained their higher parameters when they moved to Japan. Seems like a precedent.
That said, I'm fairly certain a fame bonus is negligible compared to just having a strong Master giving more power.

"We don't need martyrs right now. We need heroes. A hero would die for his country, but he'd much rather live for it." -Josiah Bartlet
List of Servants I've made
Apologies, the above is incorrect. Their Parameters dropped to their usual fame in the area after they arrived, and the fame advantage at home is said to be more enormous the greater their relevance, Artoria and Cu Chulainn both given castles (Cu as a Noble Phantasm) in their home country with a full array of staff. Not as enormous as Koha-Ace patriots, mind you. You may consult the Zero novel and side materials to verify.
Also, irrelevant to the question, since they are from the early Middle Ages and they wouldn't be disqualified with the loss of fame. Their statistics are already above the minimum requirements by a margin, not below them by one or two.
Perhaps the question should be posted in the intended thread...apologies for the derailment.
No. There's no evidence saying that Diarmuid was summoned in Europe. Also Zero Materials says he has low stats.
And stronger master and homeground bonus, statwise, it's about the same, one rank to a number of parameters either way.
However home-ground gives you more NPs and skill buffs.
- - - Updated - - -
No. Saber is summoned with what she died with because she's still alive. Cu's castle has never been mentioned as staffed.

Background:
Keyword 01: Funerary Spells
Spoiler:
Keyword 02: Theophagy
Spoiler:
Class and Personal Skills:
Magic Resistance: A
It grants protection against magical effects. Differently from the Resistance effect that merely rejects prana, this ability cancels the spells altogether. At this level, it cancels spells of A-Rank or below. In practice, the Servant is untouchable to modern magi, so it would not be an exaggeration to title the Servant a "Magus Killer".
Charisma: B
The natural talent to command an army. Increases the ability of allies during group battles. At this rank, it is suitable for the king of a country.
Divinity: A
The measure of whether one has Divine Spirit aptitude or not. At high levels one is treated as a mixed race of a Divine Spirit. It also has an effect which reduces special defensive values called "purge defense" in proportion to the Divinity's Rank. It can break through Skills such as Protection of the Faith and Enlightenment of the Sacred Fig.
The Pharaoh was considered to be the son of the Sun god Ra, the living embodiment of Horus in life as ruler of the land of Egypt, and eventually becoming syncretized with the god of the afterlife Osiris after death, where he was united with the rest of the gods. New incarnations of Horus succeeded the deceased Pharaoh on Earth in the form of new Pharaohs.
Forces of Akh: EX
The ability to possess a potentially inexhaustible Mana reserve inside the body. By virtue of divine concession (or rather, through the mystical actions performed by Unas as described in the Cannibal Hymn), the Prana level of the Servant doesn’t decrease. The body becomes a theoretically bottomless container of magical energy. This being said, however, the effective amount of magical energy that can be employed at any given time is not unlimited.
Noble Phantasms:
Shezmu Godslayer: Whom He Finds In His Way, Him He Devours Bit By Bit
Rank: A++
Type: Anti-Unit, Anti-God
At first glance, a plain-looking, but still majestic, splendidly-crafted golden shortsword. Otherwise unremarkable, the only striking feature is the hilt, shaped in the form of a maned lionhead, from whose baring fangs the blade protrudes. However, this sabre is actually the physical manifestation of the Demon-God Shezmu, the “Executioner of Osiris” and “Slaughterer of Souls”, one of the terrible entities assigned to the control and patrol of the Egyptian afterlife, a bloody god of justice and retribution to the souls of the dead.
The crimson “Demon of the Wine Press”, god of execution, wine and blood: he derives his gruesome names and attributes from what was his job in the Underworld, a destroyer of wrongdoers, ripping out and putting their heads in winepresses and distilling from their blood an exalted red wine served to the chosen few souls of the dead.
A merciless and fierce deity, the Lord of Blood, usually portrayed as a man with leonine head, whose mane and fangs are drenched in blood, and wearing a belt of human skulls around his waist, “Fierce of Face”.
As such, it shouldn’t be surprised that Shezmu was particularly feared by Egyptians, even more if Ancient Egypt’s obsession with death is taken into account: Shezmu’s affinity with the red color soon linked him with the evil of Seth and Apophis, who were also associated with the scarlet color, since red is the universal color of spilled life and chaos, the color of the setting sun and approaching darkness.
On the other hand, it should be noted that to Egyptian and Middle Eastern civilizations, “demons” weren’t necessarily one-dimensionally evil: in fact Shezmu had qualities of both light and darkness, embodying the merciless punishment of the unrighteous as “Overthrower of the Wicked at the Block”, an harsh executioner of evil men via beheading, but also an helper of the righteous and protector of the virtuous.
In Utterances 273-274, he appears as the god who prepares the meal of divine flesh and blood for Unas, cutting and cooking the bodies of the divine spirits.
As such, Godslayer is a Divine Construct that holds both powers of a cursed and holy sword, or rather, the attribute of a “necessary gruesome action” sanctioned by and for “sacred authority”. In his unsealed state, when Saber calls his true name, the sword glows, growing a gauntlet that covers and protects Unas’ whole arm and right side of the upper body. Strangely enough, and perhaps to highlight the unique nature of this Noble Phantasm, Shezmu can talk – although he mainly converses with his owner in a telepathic way in a low, soft-spoken voice. He casually expresses his distress in being used for acts unrelated to his function, and this is way Unas mostly keeps him “dozing off” in his sealed state.
His offensive power is unparalled, capable of killing even Divine Spirits, and cutting through the “immanent illusions” brought by the Authority of Gods of Antiquity, natural phenomena possessing intentions and personalities. His innate power allows him to absorb, and convert the “flesh” of opponents into prana upon their death. The true origin of the Noble Phantasm is unknown, perhaps with Unas being the only exception, as it’s not known if Shezmu is a renegade god turned against his past brethren, or a Divine Construct given to Unas by the Gods of Egypt themselves. Although a terrific weapon, his use his somewhat limited by Unas’ lack of proper expertise in swordsmanship, even when bestowed with high enough stats.
Nefer Isut: Imperishable Spirit of Great Magic
Rank: A
Type: Anti-Unit
A tattoo set that covers Unas’ whole body. Its nature is that of an incredibly powerful bounded field, already on the level of a Reality Marble, delimited by the arcane spells engraved on the Servant’s skin, and thus limited to his body, rather the external world. It’s a manifestation of the hieroglyphs that in his pyramid surround the burial chamber of the pharaoh, detailing hymns and blessings to the Egyptian king for safely reaching heaven, enveloping Unas into an impenetrable barrier fueled by the magic of the gods. Beside providing Unas with unparalled protection against spiritual attacks, it increases his rank of Magic Resistance to the highest level. A system of spells dating back to the very Old Kingdom of Egypt, an era closer to the Age of the Gods, and as such modern thaumaturgical systems cannot be remotely compared to it.
Since the funerary texts are meant to preserve the immortality of both the soul and body, it’s a series of protective and regenerative spells that, once invoked, activate the mystic code system that his the body of Unas against damage; this because Unas’ current body is actually a construct that holds the greater Akh of Unas and that can syphon the power of gods.
Nefer Isut can shift damage to magical HP as long as magical HP are available. This being said, however, if the body is destroyed all at once, since there is nothing left to ‘regenerate’, Unas is unavoidably defeated.
As Lancer
Saber stopped, just short of the boiling black lake. From the Gate above, corruption spilled down, awaiting the birth of the greatest of demons. She turned back to face Shirou, the Master that she could neither understand nor agree with, and yet, felt a profound sense of regret. With a small smile, Saber, the last of the prophets, whispered, "Allahu Akbar."Originally Posted by Ali Sultaan Asani, Abridged

LCK: C NP: A++
Class Skills:
Magic Resistance: A
The ability to resist spells. Cancel spells of A-Rank or below. In practice, the Servant is untouchable to modern magi, so it would not be an exaggeration to title the Servant a "Magus Killer". This exceptionally high rank stems from Saber's great piety and God-granted protection.
Riding: B
Connotes expertise at riding animals. At this rank, all mundane animals and vehicles can be manned with above average skill.
Personal Skills:
Prophet: A
Connotes one's status as a Muslim Prophet of God. At this rank, upon summoning, Saber is conveyed two of the following bonuses at her behest: "Increase in the effectiveness of Islamic Curses", "Charisma increase by one Rank", "Creation of a single Prophetic Relic becomes possible" and "Increased HP regeneration". Saber is recognized as the final prophet of God in Islam, who was chosen to give mankind a final message from God.
Charisma: A-
The natural talent to command an army. Increases the ability of allies during group battles. Muhammad commanded absolute respect from tens of thousands of Arabians, each of whom she had shown the true way of Islam by turning them away from the idols of the old gods. While the true extent of this ability can only be shown to a Muslim following, Saber regardless of her flock has the kind of Charisma that could make her an uncontested king if she so wished.
Collector: C
The 'talent' to collect high quality goods -- a 'luck' that draws rare items into the possession of the Servant. However, the Servant's Master derives no benefit from this personal skill. Within her lifetime, Saber came upon many valuable relics throughout her campaigns, in particular swords, that she utilized until her death. Many of these artifacts remain in the hands of various Muslim states to this day, and are venerated by all those of the faith.
Pioneer of the Stars: EX
The 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". Within a span of mere 23 years, Saber completely revolutionized the Middle-East and much of the world for centuries to come, laying the foundation of the second most populous faith in the world.
Obfuscation: C
A skill that comes from the twisting of one's heroic legend. Due to only a fifth of the Islamic faith's followers allowing illustrations of Saber, and the shunning of her depiction by others, Saber's appearance has become vague and enigmatic. It is a skill akin to a curse that can be lifted at will, but as it is the belief of all those Saber inspired's wishes, she could never in her right mind deny them their belief, even if it is a misunderstanding. Because of this Skill, it is almost impossible to remember or depict Saber's appearance even if one were to look at her and nothing else for a full day, and it is therefor impossible to discern her True Name from mere appearance. Those intrinsically familiar with her legend and appearance may be able to guess it with a Luck Check, however.
Noble Phantasms:
Humble Yourselves, My Brothers, Before The Hero of GodSancak-ı Şerif: C
Anti-Army
The battle standard of Muhammad, which she carried on her back whenever on the battlefield. It is made of the turban of Buraydah ibn al-Khasib, one of the followers of the Prophet who was once an enemy. It is said that he was ordered to kill the Prophet by his lord, but when he hefted his spear against her, he instead bowed his head, unwound his turban and tied it around the head of his spear, connoting his surrender of himself to God, to whom Muhammad welcomed him with open arms.
By showing forth the humility of Buraydah to all those who would see Muhammad on the battlefield, they are influenced by a form of benevolent Mental Interference that decreases hostility towards Muhammad and all of her allies, effectively calming those who do not possess a major grudge against the Prophet. If one who is affected by the banner's effect is a Muslim, he will unconditionally stand down no matter what, even if one is not aware of Saber's identity.
No Celestial Body Does Not Bow To GodSplitting Of The Moon: A
Anti-World
One of the greatest miracles performed by the Prophet. With God's guidance, she raises two fingers into the air like a cutting blade, and swings them down with a single slicing motion. Though Muhammad possesses no thaumaturgic abilities, this is no spell and instead a divine power lended to her by God. In a line extending five hundred meters in front of her, a perfect cut against which there is no guard is brought forth by the swing of her measly fingers. This attack must be done in line with the moon's position in the sky, which will in turn be cut in half. While the true celestial body that is Earth's moon is untouched, the image of "the heavenly body that is the moon in the sky" that all civilizations of Gaia have lived under for thousands of years is cut in half. All effects or abilities related to the moon cease functioning until sunrise, and the damage cannot be undone until the following night.
The Celestial Lights in Praise of the Best of CreationHırka-i Şerif: C
Anti-Unit (Self)
The Holy Mantle of Muhammad, a beautiful cream-colored coat woven of fine goat hair, given to Ka'b ibn Zuhayr as a gift before her Ascendance, which caused the bitter Zuhayr, who had denied Islam until then, to convert and be pardoned for committing, which would have damned him to a long time in hell if he had not been forgiven by the gentle God.IdolatryShirk
This coat was woven by Muhammad's daughter Fatimah and contains the greatest protection God could offer her. In addition to being as tough as plate armor, this coat contains the power to replicate theof the Prophet. Among other things, this includes the ability to appear as a man, generate drinking water for thousands of people, being able to converse with animals and trees and control them and the ability to heal others to great extends through bodily fluids, such as when she spat in the sick eye of her cousin Ali, which caused the eye to heal.MiraclesMuʿd̲j̲iza

Swords of the ProphetDhu al-Faqar, al-Rasub, Qal'l, al-Mikhdham, Hatf, al-'Adb, al-Ma'thur, al-Qadib, al-Battar: A++
Anti-Unit
The nine swords belonging to Muhammad that she collected from her fallen enemies throughout her 23 years as the Prophet. While each of them belonged to her in life, and each is no doubt a Noble Phantasm in their own right, this specific Noble Phantasm was never made possible until after her end. It is the ultimate protection that the Angels of God can give her, specifically by providing her an unconquerable offense that cannot be defended against. By calling out her name and purpose while drawing out two swords of her choice, the other seven are grasped from their sheets by ethereal pale see-through hands, those of angels, and are then swung and wielded by them alongside her own mid-combat. Each angel possesses great skill with their sword, and each act on their own to protect Muhammad as best as possible, beating down the opponent through sheer numbers.
Each sword possesses an effect of it's own, as listed below, though the specific effects can only be manifested if Muhammad herself wields the sword. They are additionally all considered Holy Swords.
The sword Muhammad gave to her cousin Ali, with which he returned from the Battle of Uhud with blood covering him from his hands to his shoulders. It is a "two-pointed sword" that generates an image overlapping itself that strikes alongside it, effectively bringing down two blows for every one.Sword of AliDhu al-Faqar:
The sword Muhammad gave to Ja'far al-Sadiq, Ali's son. It is inscribed with alchemical gold circles on the sheath, which ignite the depicted gilded fire on the sword when drawn. This golden fire is hot enough to melt steel and purges unclean souls, doing additional damage to enemies of the Evil alignment.Sword of Ja'faral-Rasub:
One of the three swords Muhammad acquired from the Banu Qaynuqa, a hostile Jewish tribe that lived in Medina before Muhammad had them banished after a bout of hostilities. It is said to have been found by the Prophet's grandfather in the Well of Zamzam in Mecca, almost a century earlier. Its wave-like design comes from being infused with the powers of this holy well, which strangely contains seawater. This "power of the waves" allows the sword to curve around enemy defenses by briefly transforming into water.Sword of the WellQal'I:
Another sword Muhammad gave to Ali, which he acquired during a skirmish in Syria. It is the sword of a Djinn, said to contain the power to grant a wish, but the magic of the sword has long since been expended, and now it is merely a sword of sublime quality that cuts through air like a blade of grass.Second Sword of Alial-Mikhdham:
The sword of King David that he acquired from the Giant Goliath when he was but a teenager. It too belonged to the Banu Qaynaga until Muhammad took it as a prize. It is said that the strength of its first wielder still resides within the handle of the sword, dented by massive fingers, and so no matter who swings this sword, so long as they are mortal, it delivers attacks of Rank A+.Sword of GoliathHatf:
A sword sent to Muhammad by one of his companions before the Battle of Badr, where she utilized it to great effect. As the very name of the sword is "Cutting", it is a supernaturally sharp sword that can cut through any surface without a Spiritual Rank, no matter what it is. It cannot cut a Muslim however, as many a follower of the Prophet proved their fealty by bringing the sword to their necks and letting it run across it. If they were a true believer, it would do them no harm, and not once did it draw blood from anyone who took the test.Sword of Fealtyal-'Adb:
A sword willed to Muhammad by her father when she received her first revelation in Mecca. It has a handle of gold in the shape of two serpents, encrusted with emeralds and turquoise. These serpents come alive when it is swung by someone true to Islam, lashing out against all nonbelievers, venom dripping from their golden fangs.Sword of the Serpental-Ma'thur:
A sword that resembles a rod, which no records show Muhammad ever wielding in battle. It is a sword of defense and companionship that cannot be drawn in anything but self-defense, and becomes locked in it's sheath if the Prophet initiates battle. However, when drawn for defensive purposes, it is an unfailing sword that blocks incoming attacks automatically, predicting future events to best know how to place itself to defend the wielder.Sword of Travelal-Qadib:
A sword that dates back to ancient times, with the hand-written names of all the Prophets before Muhammad, as well as her own. It is a holy artifact that Jesus will wield when he returns to earth, to defeat the Anti-Christ Dajjal on the Day of Ressurection, cleansing the earth of it's ills. When wielded by a Prophet, it glows white with the power of God, smiting those who possess ill will towards the Prophet's Holy Cause with increased damage and crippling their physical stats with one Rank for the duration of an hour.Sword of the Prophetsal-Battar:
Right Hand of GodTawaf Faqr Qalb: A+
Anti-Divine
A perfectly smooth black stone, looking as if it was once shattered and then instantly united again, dating back to the time of Adam and Eve. It is a holy stone that fell from the heavens in ancient times to mark where Adam was to built an altar to God, now venerated as the cornerstone of the Kaaba, the holiest site in all of Islam. It has been smoothed from being kissed through centuries by millions of Muslims who journeyed to Mecca for their Hajj. It is said to have once been dazzling white, but was turned black by the sins of mankind.
By kissing this stone, it becomes possible for a Prophet to access the power within, the belief of billions of Muslims throughout the ages and the sins of all the peoples contained in a single rock. Because it is only God's place to punish mankind and not Muhammad's, this stone's power can only be used against the gods of old. Channeling these sins in a beam of black light that overwhelms the divinity of Divine Spirits with the sins of man, it becomes possible to reduce those of full or partial Divinity to complete mortals and then subsequently kill them. The effect is permanent against demigods but Divine Spirits can, if left unexposed to the stone's power for a considerable amount of time, regain their divinity.
