I've really started to doubt that the hero I picked works as a Berserker....
I'm gonna have to read the book again
also my application is coming soon but I'm struggling with making my character not generic.
There's no deadline as such, so it's cool, take your time.
-
(( Saber and Jumper slots open ))
-
I'm gonna have to withdraw as well, I've got too much to do right now, sorry.
Okay, no worries :)
-
Can i still sign-up for this? If yes, i would like to go with Lancer (since is the only one left)
Sure thing, noted for Lancer.
For the record, there is one more, Jumper, as the og Jumper Master has withdrawn.
-
Right. I'll put my dibs on Archer then.
Noted down for Archer.
The main two things I was wondering was if full gods are allowed (I was considering Odin for Lancer). Gods generally don't seem to feature in the canon material but Angra Mainu is a top tier god and has a very distinct role in the series. My other question was how modern we can go. I believe the most recent servant (aside from Emiya of course) is Frankenstein (which I find pretty absurd given how verifiably fictional it is) so would people living in the twentieth century be fair game?
I'd say spinning it as a human who was a powerful Nordic King is acceptable tbh (not that that's what you're going with because too late you've revealed it to us now). But yeah Full God's are a bit too much.
As for how modern you can go, honestly someone from the 20th century is fine in my books (even if it's not so common in the material).
-
I must apologize, but I need to rescind my offer. Real life has started to pop up, and I will only be able to handle the two I'm already in.
Sorry.
No worries, thanks for letting me know.

( Initial post updated with information on introducing supporting characters)
-
Can we discuss some different potential candidates from each class over PM? Also will we be role playing both the master and servant at the same time?
As I am technically a participant, do not reveal anything about your servant to me please. The only information that should be public knowledge is your master sign up.
I trust you can use your judgement to determine if a certain historical figure would fit a certain class :p As long as there's like, some basic reasoning behind it, anything goes.
And yes, both Servant and Master will be RP'ed simultaneously. There's a bit more to it though, which I should have addressed in the main post (I'll edit it now).
-
I wouldn't mind putting my name down for this if it's still open. I'm cool with any servant.
Archer or Lancer your choice
-
(( Slots for Archer and Lancer are still open! If you've ever wanted a Knight Class, your chance is here! ))
-
Is caster taken? If not I'd like to sign up as it.
Also, will you be acting as the supervisor as well?
Noted for Caster.
There will be no supervisor for this War, the Kotomine family has perished, and the Holy Church does not wish to get involved as a mediator. They are now looking to dispatch a contestant for themselves in fact.
-
As Jumper should I PM you my character submission? That way it'll be more of a mystery for the other players.
Alright, I see what you mean. Then yeah, please PM me instead of posting it here. Rest assured, I won't take advantage of it.
-
Cool, could I take Berserker? If that's not okay I'll go Jumper. I'll work on build the servant properly later.
Berserker is already taken, noted down for Jumper.
-
Quick question. In the buying a Noble Phantasm section, it says a Rider can get a discount on one NP. How much is the discount?
For both Base Stats and Noble Phantasms, Discounts halve the cost: 50 goes to 25 etc. (flat one time Discount for Base Stats, /per rank for NP)
Funny thing is, I didn't really cash in on my Discount for Base Stats...might have to give my Servant a look over :/
-
This looks cool. I'd like to sign up for Rider.
Noted for Rider :)
-
(( Made some changes to the settings in the main post ))
-
Oh well, that ruined my plans for an Avenger
But I'll sign up, I guess if no one else claims them, I'll do Saber.
Noted down for Saber.
-
I'll sign up for this. Fate is my calling, but as a general question, will this have the two bonus classes(Avenger/Ruler) or the standard seven classes?
Standard Seven, plus a stunted 8th class Jumper, which is an anomalous summon. It should be in the pdf for Servant Creation :)
-
Ahh, okay then. I think I might be interested then. I'd go with the second one.
Also I'm unsure of how creating a servant works. There's stuff about cost and points, but I don't quite understand it.
Essentially you start out with 1000 points, and everything from choosing a Servant, to increasing their parameters, to choosing skills and Noble Phantasms, deducts from these points.
There is also a "Drawbacks" section which applied "nerfs" to your Servant in order to give you more points to work with.
As Leona mentioned, finding a historical figure is key. Everything from potential summoning class to personal skills (and ESPECIALLY Noble Phantasms) works from there.
-
I've only watched Fate/Zero, and it was one of my favorite anime. Would I need to watch Fate/Stay Night proper in order to really understand this RP?
I mean, not really? The plot isn't essential, just know that everyone you knew from either is dead.
Zero should give you the basics of how a Grail War is conducted, I'd argue it's the more tactical based War of the two.
-
I gotta ask what Character account / Author account means
Ignore that, I was thinking of posting this on a different forum, one which uses separate accounts for RP, before I posted to SF.
In fact now that you mention it, I'll get rid of it.
-
Holy shit, I need to play this
I think option 1 is better since people have a tendency to metagame (subconsciously or not) but that would leave room for powerplaying
Can I edit in my character sheet later? also, I'd like to call dibs on Berserker. I've already got a hero in mind.
Dibs is yours ;)
And yeah no worries edit in the sign up later.

Role Play based on Fate / Stay Night, with all new masters and servants.
Setting:
Set in 2020, a 6th Holy Grail War is about to begin. Set in a parallel universe where Angra Mainyuu was never defeated, and the Grail is still corrupted. Gilgamesh is missing, whereabouts unknown. All other combatants in the 5th Holy Grail War have perished. Set in Fuyuki, Tokyo. Einzberns, Matous and Tohsakas have all died out.
EDIT: ALL Masters have done reconnaissance prior to the War officially starting, and know about all the other Masters APART from Jumper's Master, who none of us know about. This is to counteract Jumper having E in all stats at base, and thematically Jumper is an anomaly. Intel gathered is reflected in individual Master sign-up forms.
Master Creation Template:**Character Name:****Author Account:****Race (Human or Vampire):****Sex:****Age:****Faction:** (Holy Church, Mage's Association, Rogue)**Appearance:****Personality:****Magecraft(s), if applicable:** (use: http://typemoon.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Magic_Spells)**Intro Post:** *soon...*Servant Creation Guide:Only one of each class type is allowed (including Jumper). It's first come first serve, and I will be taking the Assassin class for myself, leaving seven other slots.
For both Base Stats and Noble Phantasms, Discounts halve the cost: 50 goes to 25 etc. (flat one time Discount for Base Stats, /per rank for NP).
As the point was risen, I should address: Since each Master usually has unique command seal designs, feel free to design one for your character and present it as an image, or describe it. You don't have to if you don't want to :)Here is my master creation as an example:Character Name: Mark Gatling
Character Account: monfernova
Author Account: monfernova
Race (Human or Vampire): Human
Sex: Male
Age: 23
Faction: Hired by Mage's Association (Freelancer)
Appearance: http://i.imgur.com/pVfZaTb.png
Personality: Playful and lightly sarcastic, with little to no regard for rules and regulations. Somewhat mysterious as not always honest, a bit of a trickster and a bit of a flirt. However, moderately trained for combat. Chaotic Neutral Type 1: The Hedonist http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ChaoticNeutral
Magecraft(s), if applicable: Shared Perception Memory Manipulation
Intro Post: An English man sired by a third-rate magic family. He chose not to pursue mage-craft unlike his elder sister, and was shunned by his family. Took a Bachelor's Degree in Liberal Arts, and came out with First Honours. At the age of 21, Mark decided to take some time out before entering any form of employment, but curiously found himself at the doors of the Clock Tower.
Despite not having much experience in Magecraft, he was taken in as a freelancer, mostly to explore the world and uncover relics. Mark was given combat training whenever he returned from missions, but this was mostly anti-mage and anti-human, as his mana circuits were questionably lacking. Started taking jobs which required conflict and killing (against Rival Associations during excavation), but the pay was pretty good. Grew proficient with knife and sword H2H, and decent marksmanship with a pistol and a sniper rifle.
Learnt from a leader at the Association to enhance/strengthen his circuits, enough so that he could use some form of magic. Shared Perception among colleagues (and later his Servant), and a fairly shaky understanding of Memory Manipulation (certainly not enough to rely on). One day, while on a mission,Command Seals appeared on his hand...
(The character shot was created with: http://www.rinmarugames.com/playgame.php?game_link=mega-anime-avatar-creator)Try it out if you like :)
General consensus for input received, and to make it more realistic:
Option 1: Reveal nothing about Servant other than class, everything else has to be figured out, if something is figured out/activated, then the Master reveals that knowledge.
No God Modding, standard RP Rules apply. RP both Master AND Servant.
However, you are not limited to just those characters.Essentially, you are allowed to introduce "non-Grail War participating" characters to roleplay. As an example: Since my character is working with the Mage's Association, that will be reflected in my posts; I may be in contact with member's of the college regarding the War, and they will be given dialogue to flesh out both my character and general worldbuilding. However, they cannot be directly involved in the war whatsoever, nor come into contact with Masters other than the one they are allied with. They are not game changers, merely plot/narrative devices to flesh out your character. So no Maiya's or Irisveil's. Think more along the lines of Waver's "grandparents" from Zero and Issei Ryuudou from Stay Night. Or heck, even Risei Kotomine to some extent (though he broke his own rules).
MASTER SIGN-UP ONLY! DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE REVEAL DETAILS ABOUT YOUR SERVANT. EVERYONE HAS TO WORK THAT STUFF OUT IN THE DURATION OF THE GRAIL WAR.
Looking forward to a bloody Grail War!!!! :D

Heya, was just wondering how everyone's application is going along!
I said there's no deadline and I mean it, but I am super excited about getting this underway and would love to hear where everyone's at with creation and what not.
Now if there is a way to tag people, I don't know how, otherwise I'd tag the five other current applicants :')
