What's your opinion on Glazy's "Q" sheet?

**Bugs** · January 1st, 2020, 03:01 AM

While going for the first inheritor of the First instead of making JC is admirable, it's still basically OC for all intents and purposes.

I should also mention that I'm by no means knowledgeable about Christianity, esoteric or otherwise, and while a secret disciple of Jesus is an interesting concept by itself, it opens itself up to being just another "Nameless X" sheet that I personally can't stand.

Noble phantasm

Background

Julie d'Aubigny, also known as La Maupin, was a notorious French swordswoman and opera singer who lived a short but eventful life at the height of French absolutism. her tumultuous career and flamboyant lifestyle were the subject of gossip, rumor, and colourful stories in her own time, and inspired numerous fictional and semi-fictional portrayals afterwards.
Saber's father was the man responsible for training the court pages of king Louis the XIV, and so his daughter learned dancing, reading, drawing, and fencing alongside the pages, and dressed as a boy from an early age. She married to Sieur de Maupin of Saint-Germain-en-Laye, and she became Madame de Maupin (or simply "La Maupin" per French custom) at age 14, but almost immediately run off with a paramour (her fencing master, a man named Sérannes) to Marseilles, where she began singing in the opera.
It was around this time that Saber supposedly had an affair with a girl, followed her to a convent where her parents sent her in response, place the body of a (unrelated) dead nun in the girl's bed and set the place on fire to cover their escape. she was caught and convicted, albeit as a man (whether out of genuine confusion, or to mitigate the scandal is unclear), but was personally pardoned by the Sun King.
In another story, Saber supposedly defeated Louis-Joseph d'Albert, son of the Duke of Luynes, and two of his friends in a duel over a insult. Later, when Louis regretted and sent her an apology letter, she sneaked into his room and seduced him. The remained friends for the rest of Saber's life.
She returned to Paris in 1690 to sing in the world-famous Paris Opera, first as a soprano, but eventually switching to her natural Contralto of Danger over the years. Famously, Tancrède's Saracene princess Clorinde, a part written specifically for her, is considered to be the first major contralto role in the history of French opera.
Latter at 1695, Saber kissed a young woman at a Versailles ball, who was being courted by several men. She end up getting challenged to a duel by three of her suitors at once, but defeated all of them. the tale was so amusing that the king gave her another royal pardon.
In the end, however, Saber was finally caught. fell in love with Madame la Marquise de Florensac, the “most beautiful woman in France”. so beautiful that she too had had to flee to Brussels for several years because the Dauphin was obsessed with her. The two women lived, according to a contemporary diarist, in perfect harmony for two years until de Florensac died of a fever.
Distraught, Saber retired from her life of adventure and entered a convent, where she died at the age of 33 and was buried in an unknown grave.

I'm not really too much of a fan of all the Horsemen being object-bound, bodiless little abominations. The Pale Rider set the precedent for that and I guess my Black Rider would be the least physical of them, but Conquest and War are pretty physical in terms of what they do. Unfortunately the sheet also lacks substance on the Conquest part, since his Skills and NPs seem to be fairly direct for a metaphysical type of Servant. Some more focus on, say, crushing one's enemies (and seeing them driven before you and hearing the lamentations of their women) and the overall results of conquest might be fitting. A random suggestion might be that conquerors build up power, only to have it collapse from under them, causing chaos and ruin. Or something.

It should also be noted that a bow implies a long reach for the conceptual 'Conquest', which this Servant is also kinda lacking in (other than the Demonic Defender of the State thing). I'm leaning here towards the responses of those have not yet been conquered, but see themselves as next in line... Sorry for being vague, I'm just coming up with things off the top of my head.

Speaking of the recently passed Contest, I usually don't bother posting my entries again here as they tend to be somewhat lacking, but this one I'm pretty proud of and feel worthy of being added to the compendium on the front page.

As an aside, since I posted it right before the entry deadline I had honourably declined from editing it (aside from typos) so if anyone does have criticisms to raise now would be the time or forever hold your peace.

Archer

"The final moments of "his" life was inevitably greeted by decapitation, immolation or just plain ol' hanging. But when the people need him, when they cry out in the face of injustice... "Robin Hood" will always appear once again from the depths of the forest to save them. Always."

True Name:

Robin Hood

Robert Deyville

Epithet: "The Prince of Thieves"
Source: Historical
Region: England (Circa 13th Century)
Hidden Attribute: Human
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Likes: Alcohol, Rebelliousness
Dislikes: Betrayal, Classism
Talents: Marksmanship, Wood carving
Natural Enemy: Aristocrats

Parameters
STR: (C) END: (D) AGI: (B) MGI: (D) LCK: (E) NP: (B)

Appearance:

Character:

As a former aristocrat turned leader of a bunch of outlaws, Robert Deyville is exactly what you'd expect - intelligent and sophisticated but also blunt and sarcastic to a fault which makes him hard to like personally yet gives him a magnetic aura which no doubt attracted his band of followers. He cares little for social standing or grace, addressing everyone with the same bored disinterest be they a prince or pauper. As such he welcomes people of all walks of life and no doubt wouldn't look down on his Master for being a Mage of lesser quality. He is very self-aware of the mystery and intrigue behind the nature of "Robin Hood" and enjoys playing up to it by telling tall-tales and half truths about his and the Merry Men's accomplishments.

Since Robert was forcibly shunned by society he in turn doesn't follow any of its laws and passionately believes that the "poison" afflicting the system must be purged and so he became a vigilante that targeted the powerful and corrupt members of society and brought them to "justice" either by redistributing their wealth to the poor or if their crimes were serious enough then sending them to Hell to face judgement for their sins. However, whilst this initially made him popular amongst the people, his inability to reconcile his black and white philosophy against a more nuanced and complicated world meant that eventually as the populace felt the negative consequences of Robert's actions, they immediately turned on him which led to his inevitable demise. Nevertheless Robert wouldn't have had it any other way as he saw his actions as something that simply had to be done and feels vindicated that the name "Robin Hood" was used again and again throughout the generations for those who stood up against tyranny.

In a Holy Grail War, Robert is conscious of his stature as a weak Heroic Spirit and so he will spend most of his time scouting out the enemy Masters, waiting patiently for an opening where he can strike them down when they are vulnerable - often even ignoring what the actual Servants are doing. However, whilst Masters are fair game for targeting innocent people are - for the most part - off the table in Robert's mind. Only in a truly dire situation where it would save many people by sacrificing the few would he steel his heart and do the deed. If forced into combat with another Servant, Robert will employ hit-and-run tactics to try and chip down their health. If the power discrepancy is too great then Robert will simply retreat and let other Servants do the heavy lifting if possible. He does greatly value trust and comradeship and so if his Master proves worthy enough then Robert would be willing to sacrifice himself and his wish in order to perserve their life.

Skills:

Class Skills

Independent Action - (A)
The ability to remain independent even when rejecting the Magical Energy supply from one's Master; the ability that allows for action even in the absence of the Master. At higher ranks, it is also possible to remain for extended periods of time in this world without an established contract. As an experienced scout from his time in the war, Robert is adept at operating solo missions and staying alive for extended periods of time. At Rank A, it is easy for Robert to stay in the world for about a week without a Master since neither he nor his attacks consume much Magical Energy.

Magic Resistance - (D)
Protection granted against magical effects of all kinds. Differing from the Resistance effect that merely rejects Magical Energy, this ability cancels the spells altogether. As a normal human in life from an age where Magic was all but gone from the public, Robert has very little resistance to magic based attacks where anything more than a single-verse cast spell can kill him if it makes direct contact.

Personal Skills

Hawkeye - (A)
The superior visual and dynamic occipital capture ability belonging to those who has attained true mastery over the art of Archery. Simply looking from a high location is sufficient to fully survey a town and search for enemies. Even when an object is moving at high velocities, "To shoot correctly will result inevitably in hitting the desired target" and therefore if Robert maintains full concentration then the accuracy of his shots will not decrease since time itself appears to slow down from his perspective and even targeting for multiple shots at once is possible.

Military Tactics [Guerrilla] - (B)
The tactical knowledge used not for one-on-one combat situations, but for battles where many are mobilized. This variant Skill is specialised towards either solo or small group operations against larger forces. As both a revolutionary in the Civil War and as an outlaw, Robert was always having to combat a foe in greater numbers and so he has a wealth of experience in unheroic guerrilla tactics and subterfuge. Bonus modifiers are applied for when dealing against an enemy party and a Critical Chance is initiated if Robert and allies strike before the enemy has become aware of their presence.

Powerless Shell - (B)
An ability that makes the user difficult to perceive as a Servant, declining one's parameters and suppresses one's Skills. As an outlaw for the majority of his life, obfuscating one's identity was essential and so there are countless accounts of Robin Hood disguising himself as an unassuming citizen in order to get close to his enemies. Robert's acting ability means it is as simple as a change of clothes, voice and mannerisms so that other Masters and Servants would struggle to recognise him as anything suspicious without passing a demanding Luck Check. However, efficiency will decrease once preparations to attack are taken. In addition the Rank drastically decreases if Robert tries to fool the same target more than once.

Noble Phantasm:

Olifant
The Rogues of the Green, Green Forest

[Type - Anti Self], [Noble Phantasm Rank - C], [Maximum Range - N/A], [Maximum Number of Targets - Self]

Robert believed that "Robin Hood" didn't belong to him but rather was a concept, a hero of justice that anyone could embody. Thus whenever his band of outlaws - the Merry Men would carry out justice whilst he was absent, he encouraged them to use the name. This raised the mystique of "Robin" as he could seemingly teleport from one end of the country to the next and no two description of him matched. The Merry Men made up as much of Robin Hood's identity as Robert did.

Now incarnated as a Servant, Robert claims with pride that his men are always with him in spirit. So when he needs them most Robert pulls his hood over his head, takes out his Olifant horn and blows and the strangest thing happens. The Servant standing there now is still clearly Robert but his voice, personality and mannerisms have all completely changed to the point an observer would swear he was someone else. Whether this is truly spirit possession or a man who deluded himself on his reputation is irrelevant, a pseudo-personality of one of the Merry Men is now controlling Robert's body.

This has some physical effects as it causes a false Class Change depending on which Merry Man was "summoned" and Robert's Parameters are redistributed to match. The hulking Little John turns him into a Berserker and his STR increases at the expense of his AGI, the cocky Will Scarlett makes him a Saber whose blinding sword slashes raise his AGI in exchange for his END, with the laughing Friar Tuck he becomes a magic-less Caster whose LCK skyrockets at the cost of all his other stats as he lures enemies into pre-set traps with his pretend silly antics... and so on and so on. Ultimately Robert can't utilise any of the Merry Men's Skills or their Noble Phantasms so this unusual technique is of limited use especially against an enemy who completely outclasses him. But it is very off-putting and the sudden change in tactics might surprise the enemy enough to open a window to victory.

----

The Golden Arrow
A Lyttell Geste of Robyn Hode

[Type - Anti Unit], [Noble Phantasm Rank - B], [Maximum Range - 1000], [Maximum Number of Targets - 1]

Upon seeing the enemy launching their strongest Noble Phantasm, the crystallisation of their legend...Robert takes out the Arrow with the Golden head from his quiver and takes aim. After the Golden Arrow launches, it absorbs the magical energy of the opponent's Noble Phantasm as it carries on its path towards the target. The Golden Arrow represents physically the prize Robert won in the largest Archery contest in the land and he used it after staking his and his men's freedom in an archery match against the King of England. As the hopes of all the Merry Men were placed in it, the Golden Arrow is Robert's strongest weapon in his arsenal. After growing stronger through the energy provided by the enemy's Noble Phantasm, the Arrow will keep going and upon striking, will reflect all of the power back into the enemy Servant.

However, though the Arrow's strength comes from the faith of the Merry Men...reality is often cruel and during that fateful match Robert missed the target for the first time in his life and suffered a painful loss. Thus as if to mirror the end of the story, if the enemy Servant manages to dodge the Golden Arrow then all the damage they would have taken is redirected back into Robert - likely killing him in one go. Combined with the fact that he only possesses a single copy of the Arrow, it is truly a double edged sword and it must be used very carefully. There are other factors such as if the opponent does not use magical energy in their Noble Phantasm (such as a martial arts technique) or none of their trump cards are directly offensive based then the Golden Arrow will posses no more lethality than a regular attack from Robert. Finally, as it only has the Rank of "B" if it tries to absorb the energy of an "A" Rank Noble Phantasm then it will only be able to redirect half of the damage whereas an "EX" Ranked one will likely destroy the Arrow outright.

Lore:

Robert Deyville was the younger brother of Baron John Deyville and together they lived in their luxurious home at Hood Hill during the fall of the Angevin Empire. As a bored aristocrat with nothing better to do, Robert followed his brother into battle during the Second Barons' War against King Henry III. Robert's skill with a longbow thanks to his idle days practising earnt him fame as an archer during the civil war and thus the brothers were put in charge of York Castle and the Northern Forests. However their glory was short lived as the Royal Forces eventually crushed the insurrection and the rebels were forced to buy back their estates at prices dependant on how involved they were with the rebellion.

It was at this moment that John Deyville made a history changing decision. He denounced his brother Robert as the true mastermind behind the rebellion and poor John was forced to cooperate. John was subsequently pardoned and restored as a Baron whilst Robert was declared an outlaw for the rest of his life. Fleeing from the authorities, Robert took refuge in the Northern Forests once again where he survived by crafting his own bow and arrows and using them to rob wealthy travellers who passed by the forest for food and loot to sell for provisions. Over the next few years Robert built himself up as the mythical fairy of the forest "Robin Goodfellow" and he took in several former rebel allies who became outlaws like he did, now serving Robert as his "Merry Men".

Eventually Robert decided he would pay his brother John a visit as "Robin" in order to exact some righteous vengeance. In the dead of the night, John Deyville was awoken to cries of "fire!" and as he looked out of the window he saw his castle burning. All of a sudden he heard a cackle behind him and turned around to see a hooded man with a longbow had sneaked into his bedroom. John demanded to know who the man was but immediately cowered when the man drew his bow and fired. John opened his eyes to find the man gone and an arrow imbedded into the wall beside his head, hanging from it was a piece of paper that read "Robin Goodfellow has claimed the land of Hood in response to the Baron's sins." Though the Baron survived the fire, all his wealth was lost and the public became obsessed with the outlaw hence known as "Robin of Hood" who stole from the rich and gave to the poor.

This is but one of many apocryphal tales of the Heroic Spirits who claim the identity of Robin Hood...

**RoydGolden** · January 1st, 2020, 10:42 PM

Rider of the New Years:

Appearance:

Source

Identity: Rider embodies the first sign of the Eastern Zodiac, the Rat. However for unknown reasons she prefers calling herself by the Japanese name Nezumi instead. Maybe she thinks it sounds cuter?

Alignment: True Neutral

Armament: A pair of curved daggers styled to resemble rat's teeth. They have no special abilities, but are durable enough to withstand clashes against Noble Phantasms.

Strength- D
Agility- C+
Endurance- E
Mana- D
Luck- B
NP- C+

Personality

Class Skills:

Riding- A++
The ability to ride animals and handle vehicles. Due to the nature of her Noble Phantasm Nezumi can "ride" almost any living creature, including Phantasmal and Divine Beasts. However she has no special skill in handling inanimate vehicles like cars and chariots, which is the only thing that prevents this Skill from reaching EX-rank.

Magic Resistance- E-
Confers protection against magical effects. At this rank it doesn't negate magic at all, but merely reduces the damage a little.

As a mere rat with no anecdotes of resisting Magecraft in life, Rider only qualifies for the lowest rank in this Skill by virtue of her Class Container.

Personal Skills:

Twelve Earthly Branches (Rat)- A
Denotes the Servant's immortalization as one of the twelve Eastern Zodiac signs. Rider is the Rat, the "first" of the Zodiac signs, and such stands conceptually "ahead" of all others. Thus Rider's Agility gains a + modifier while facing enemies associated with any of the other eleven signs, so that she retains the advantage specified in her legend.

Powerless Shell- C
A Skill that makes the user difficult to perceive as a Servant, declining one's parameters and suppressing one's Skills. Like her namesake Rider appears to be a mere nuisance, a weak pest that can be easily stepped on. However this is just an act to get her foes to lower their guard around her. Rider excels at getting her enemies to underestimate her and then stabbing them in the back when they least expect it. In the Zodiac race, no one expected that a lowly rat could claim victory against all the bigger and more fierce animals. Yet Rider did, thanks to her cunning tactics and exploiting how others perceived her as weak and helpless.

Eye Of The Mind (True)- B++
A heightened capacity for observation, refined through training, discipline and experience. A danger-avoidance ability that uses information accumulated over the course of battle to predict the enemy's actions and discern the best strategy for achieving victory. This Skill is the sublimation of Rider's crafty and resourceful mindset. No matter how low the odds of winning, as long as there's a chance Rider can devise a strategy to exploit it.

Truly someone whose wits are her most dangerous weapon.

Noble Phantasm

Huángdào Shí'èr Gōng

Cunning Shortcut To Victory

Rank: C+

Type: Anti-Unit

A Noble Phantasm crystallizing how Rider took first place in the race declared by the Jade Emperor to decide which animals would be honored in the Zodiac calendar. The mighty ox was the swiftest of the animals, and naturally would've taken first place. But Rider cunningly hid in the ox's fur only to jump out just before it crossed the finish line. Thus Rider was awarded first amongst the Zodiac signs, while the ox was consigned to second.

This Noble Phantasm embodies the concept of "riding another to victory". Unlike most Riders, Nezumi is unable to summon a mount. Instead, Huángdào Shí'èr Gōng allows Rider to conceptually "ride" others, much as she snuck her way to victory atop the ox's head in legend. Upon touching a living human or animal, Rider can furtively mark them as her "mount".

The affected individual likely won't notice anything happen, and no changes are visible except that a small purple mark in the shape of a rat manifests on the back of the target's neck. But upon invoking this Noble Phantasm's true name, Rider can instantly warp herself to where the target is. No matter what obstacles lay in the way, Rider simply appears directly "ahead" of the target in a shimmer of purple light, utterly bypassing the intervening space. A teleportation ability on the level of True Magic, recreating the legend where Rider unfairly leaped ahead of the Ox to cross the finish line first.

This Noble Phantasm is excellent for spying and making a quick getaway. If Rider wants to infiltrate a certain location, all she has to do is "mount" someone who'd be going there and then "jump ahead" of them once they arrive. There's no limit on how many beings Rider can mark at a time, but each additional mark raises the Mana cost of this Noble Phantasm. Creating more than a dozen "mounts" would drain Rider's Mana reserves to the point where she'd be on death's door. Each mark vanishes after being used, though Rider can simply re-mark the same individual again afterwards.

Additionally, Rider can exert a subtle mental interference on the marked individuals, akin to low-level hypnotic suggestion. This can't be used to force someone into doing something they would never normally do, but Rider can "coax" targets into unconsciously taking certain actions, like guiding a group of people to converge at a certain location. This represents how Rider manipulated the ox into carrying her to her destination before leaping off and revealing her true intentions. Rider's suggestions manifest as subtle gnawing voices at the back of the target's mind, resembling the squeaks and scurrying of rats.

On humans and advanced animals the effects are very limited, while on simple animals like rats Rider can more-or-less completely guide their actions by conveying instinctual commands. In battle Rider's ideal strategy is to scatter a bunch of rats around the opponent and rapidly "jump" between them while attacking, confusing the foe as to where her strikes are coming from. Ironically, given Nezumi's furtive fighting style she's far more compatible with the Assassin Class than Rider. However for one who cheated her way to victory like Rider, perhaps it's only fitting she crept into this Class on a technicality.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So here's a sheet just in time to commemorate the new year! I've had this idea In my head for a while now, but it was only now I got the inspiration to write it up. I'm pretty proud of it as a whole, especially the NP, which I did my best to make a fitting conceptualization of her legend. I actually didn't plan on the genderbend, but couldn't find any FCs of mouse/rat-eared anime boys that weren't ridiculously cutesy/saccharine, which didn't fit my take on "him" at all, so I ended up going for a female pic instead. As usual, any commentary and critiques would be much appreciated. Thanks for reading y'all!

Normally indomitable, Berserker would never willingly accept another person as their superior. The very act of accepting another as their "master" is a sign that they have lost their own reasoning. Surrendering sovereignty is treated the same as surrendering their sanity.

Conversation is possible with them, but they follow their orders in the most roundabout way, causing them to act independently even while in service. The oxymoron known as a "Loyal Rebel."

Mutual understanding is believed to be fundamentally impossible.

Prana Burst (Flame) : B

A skill that was attached to Berserker's Noble Phantasm.
A Prana Burst skill where weapons are empowered by coating them in flames, increasing their damage potential. Jet like propulsion released not by the body, but from the magical energy coursing through the weapon.

Protection of Goddess Zababa: C (A)

Berserker is one who received the favor of the warrior goddess Zababa. A composite Skill that originally possessed traits combining Divine Protection and Affection of the Goddess, increasing fighting power and tactical ability. However Berserker is incapable of using it properly, and so it has received a rank down in their current state.

At rank C, a plus modifier is applied to Endurance .

Noble Phantasm

Lore

Recorded as the 22nd king of Kish, and the penultimate ruler of the first dynasty of Kish according to the Sumerian Kings List. Berserker's True Name is king Enmebaragesi, ruler of the city of Kish. He is the father of Agga, whose defeat at the hands of king Gilgamesh marked the end of their dynasty.

In terms of great heroes of the era of Ancient Babylonia, Enmebaragesi holds acclaim as one who bears the title of "The Strongest Human." Even without the blessings conferred to the lords of Kish by the gods, or the affections of the patron goddess which only he can claim, he was an unbeatable force. "No man nor beast could fell him, and the gods fear his strength." A supreme warrior, unknowing of loss.

Or so he would believe.

Eventually, he ran afoul of Dumuzid, the ruler of Uruk prior to Gilgamesh. In terms of military strength, and even the strength of their respective kings, it was only logical that great Kish would come out on top. But Dumuzid, while a foolish man-turned-god, was not so stupid as to fight an opponent stronger than him.

The details are sketchy at best, as Berserker refuses to give a direct answer to his defeat, and the Shepherd God fears bringing the warrior's wrath on him. What is known is the end result: Dumuzid victorious, with Enmebaragesi enslaved and at his mercy.

With the king defeated, Kish was forced to defer the seat of supremacy to Uruk, and by consequence, the new born successor of Dumuzid. The treasures of Kish were given away to the vaults of the new king, including the twin swords of Zababa.

What became of the former king is lost to historical fact, but a segment of the Epic of Gilgamesh claims he was made to be the hero king's sister. The accuracy of this statement is… suspect, to say the least. But it is true he was made to attend to the king and his younger sister, and he did not so much as an attempt to help save his son when they too fell to the might of Uruk.

What could make the former glorious warrior fall so much?

Lore

A poet and novelist, Ihara Saikaku is one of the most brilliant figures of the 17th-century revival of Japanese literature. He enchanted readers with racy accounts of the amorous and financial affairs of the merchant class and the demimonde, creating a new genre of literature called “ukyouzoshi” (floating world).

He first won fame for his amazing facility in composing haikai and humorous renga poems from which the 17-syllable haiku was derived. In 1671 he turned out, in “a day and a night,” 1,600 verses. Not satisfied with composing at the rate of one verse a minute, he steadily increased his prowess, reaching 4,000 in 24 hours in 1680 and the incredible figure of 23,500 in 1684. This was somewhat more than 16 haikai per minute, and the performance earned him the nickname of the “20,000 poet.” Saikaku continued to write verse at more normal speeds, but his style was considered so bizarre that rival poets called it “Dutch” to indicate its outlandishness.

Saikaku is best known, however, for his novels, written in a swift style that stems from his training as a haikai poet. Their content reflects Japanese society in a time when the merchant class had risen to such prominence that its tastes prevailed in the arts and the licensed pleasure quarters catered to its whims. Most of his works relates the erotic (and homoromantic in nature) adventures of their respective heroes. His popularity was enormous throughout Japan, and his influence on fiction continued after his death, even to this day.

There are not many records of his personal life, and most of it is a mystery, but it is known the death of his wife in 1675 had an extremely profound impact on him. A few days after her death, in an act of grief, Saikaku started to compose a thousand-verse haikai poem over twelve hours. It is said that it was the first time that Saikaku had attempted to compose such a lengthy piece of literature. The overall experience and success that Saikaku received from composing such a mammoth exercise has been credited with sparking the writer’s interest in writing novels ever since.

I sorta gave him a bow as a general armament (see his relation with Salome), but ye, the King of Kings further down has more stuffs than Conquest, so I went mostly with that.

Not really. Most of them don't have enough lore to flesh out a full Servant sheet even if I really stretched things. I considered making an Avenger Cat who has a grudge against Rat for getting him excluded from the Zodiac, but even then I doubt there's enough there to come up with interesting Skills and NPs. I appreciate the curiosity though.

Hey man, if people can make a Servant out of character who only gets brought up in two lines in a massive epic, anything is possible.
