Double post because of shameless bumping powers (don't judge me ;-;), and because I have a TON of information to share with you guys in hopes of piquing more interest! Alrighty... lemme see where to start... I guess we should start with the rules! (Sorry if the formatting is WEIRD, I'm still getting used to it all) ---- [list] [*]No Godmodding! Nope. Nadda. Zip. NOPE! No excuses! This rule is more lax toward npcs/Non-playable Characters, but please use your head! However, if you feel your character is being pushed around too much by other people, or if things seem to be going bad for you, then please don’t hesitate to come to me! While I can be a friendly person, I won’t hesitate to put my foot down if I suspect there to be bullying as my duty as a fair GM! >:L [/*] [/list][list] [*]Chances are, given how things usually are in these kinds of settings, that there will definitely be high fluctuations on the power levels of characters in the RP. However! Do be warned that this does not in any way mean that there is a contract, deal, or some given right that because you are playing a mighty god-tier destroyer of world character that you can push people around and do whatever you want! Stronger forces will without a doubt face greater challenges and will mostly be given bounties from the Overseer for their amusement. Seriously, this Overseer is straight up a dick! While I sincerely hope from the bottom of my heart that we can all have fun and go nuts while having a good time, please, PLEASE, take into account and consideration that signing up with someone who has more power under or over their belt will definitely mean more trouble for you, both from me and the other players![/*] [/list] [list] [*]I will throw this out there right now! That this is an elimination game unlike any other! I will try my hardest as the kind person I am to keep the killing from happening until we have a ground set base and have what I feel is a good point for people to start dying! However, if things happen, and I feel that you’ve gotten yourself into that situation despite numerous options to avoid it, I won’t hesitate to allow your death to happen. You have been warned! >_> [/*] [/list] [list] [*]Now! While the original has it that the war is supposed to be secret, you are allowed to go a bit nuts and destroy things if they reasonable and explained properly! Take a look/read at Fate/Zero and check out how that plays along, some things there happen RIGHT IN FRONT OF CIVILIANS, and that’s perfectly fine since, like I said, this Overseer doesn’t really care and can be a dick! However, if he deems that things are getting too out of hand, then consequences will be had! Simply put, if you think it’s a bad idea, it probably is. If you think it’s a bad idea, but could be fun, run it by me and I’ll give you a “yay” or a “nay”![/*] [/list] [list] [*]You control your PC(s) and that is all! Wanna control that dragon npc who’s napping? Nope. Wanna play with the CEO of McDonalds who just happens to be in town? NO. Feel like stabbing the voice actor for Barney who just happens to be with the CEO of McDonalds and who also just so happens to be directly in front him? Not going to happen… Okay, maybe a bit on that last one. But in all honestly, you will probably only have limited controls over Npcs. Services such as taxis, busses, small minions, etc. are fine to be controlled. Though, if I feel it’s being abused I miiight just suspend your privileges with this in order to keep the flow of things good. [/*] [/list] [list] [*]Last, but not least, if you want to quit the game, just say so! If you leave all of a sudden and considering how much a sudden disappearance can affect an RP, it’ll ruin the enjoyment of others and it’ll make people extremely sad. :/ I think this happened before with the GM, and players were left to do things on their own.[/*] [/list] ---- Alright, now that the basic rules are out of the way, let's get onto all the sweet twists that I'm sure all of you are dying to read about... or, I hope you are all dying to read about at least. ;-; First of all! There are classes that have been included that we may or may not be familiar with, and these classes are the infamous Ruler, Avenger, Beast, and a new class that I made but am still working on developing; Progenitors. Click on them to read up on the new classes! [hider=Rulers]These Servants are basically those who were worshiped, praised, or hailed as a higher being than just a normal human in life. Simply put, they are the gods in history and stories given mortal form via the Holy Grail. For example: Thor, Zeus, Odin, Susanoo, Amaterasu, and Loki would fall under the Ruler class. Does this mean that they have all of their powers that they would have in life? No. The Holy Grail may be a powerful wish-granting object, but due to its current restrictions (and for the sake of stability of the RP, while also making things a LOT less complicated), it cannot bring the full power of a god into the RP. All those summoned into this class have Divinity and Magic Resistance for Class skills.[/hider] [hider=Avengers]These Servants are those who were hailed as a hero despite their wishes, sacrificed for a greater purpose, were betrayed or had betrayed someone in some manner or form, or were killed wrongly. For example: Ariadne, Medea, and Polyphemus (Cyclops) would qualify as an Avenger Servant. All those summoned into this class have the Class Skill “Vindication” that boosts defenses and resistances due to the amount of damage done to them (think of Spartacus), while also granting them temporary boosted stats the closer they are to death depending on their Vindication's rank. They also get the skill “Battle Continuation” for another one of their class skills as well.[/hider] [hider=Beasts]Now we come to the Servants who have been summoned into the Beast Class. These Servants are the great beasts of legends whose death would make their slayer a famous hero. Basically, spirits summoned into this class are the ‘great beasts’ or ‘creatures’ of legends that were slain and used to make their hero more famous, although, they are not limited to just that specific condition. A creature summoned into this class doesn’t necessarily have to be a ‘famous’ beast slain by someone, just as long as they are a beast in general and have a ‘name’ or some sort of history known by the world. Examples of Beast class Servants are: Medusa, Satyr, Fafnir, The Hydra, Cerberus, Scylla, Mermaids/Sirens, Wendigos, and other creatures. Those who are summoned into this class have the Class Skill “Transformation” and “Monstrous Strength”. Transformation is theoretically Shapeshifting, however, this is a more advanced version that allows its user to alternate between their humanoid form and their ‘true’ form, along with anything in-between in mere seconds. Upon taking one's true form, they gain resistances and skills reflecting those that they might have had in life. But as a result of transforming to their truest form, their identities are automatically revealed to all.[/hider] [hider=Progenitors. I am still debating if I want this Class in the RP or not if it gets off of the ground, so don’t get your hopes up!]These are perhaps the most unique and complex of all Servants, in the sense that they aren’t actually ‘real’ entities to begin with, and are perhaps the weakest of the Servant Classes except perhaps for a select few of ‘heroes’. The Servants of the Progenitor class are actually beings that are actually what one would call a ‘stock’ character, or one without a true name. To put it simply, take the stock character ‘Feral Child’ for example, and you might immediately think of Tarzann, Enkidu, or Atalanta, who were all raised since birth by animals, but they would not be summoned, but the concept of Feral Child itself would be summoned. Instead of having a famous hero, you would have a concept given a human form that takes on the traits of the concept that it is summoned as. In this case, if one summoned Feral Child they would receive a man/woman capable of heightened senses, good reflexes and mobility. The downside, however, would be that their intelligence wouldn’t be on par with others and they wouldn’t be capable of performing complex things. Another example would be the Black Knight, you would not receive a hero who was known as a Black Knight, but instead receive the concept of the idealization of the Black Knight. The Black Knight would probably for example not care for causing destruction, harming innocents, and fighting in plain sight, and would most likely go out of their ways to face those who are on the justice spectrum rather than the evil spectrum, despite their Master’s reluctance if they have any. The Class Skills of the Progenitors are Versatility and Counter Hero. Versatility allows one to step outside their bounds of their class of Progenitor, and temporarily borrow the powers of another Class as long as it ties into the summoned “hero’s” concept, with the greater the rank the longer the borrowed powers last. Counter Hero lowers the rank of those that face the Progenitor based upon its rank, effectively leveling the playing field to a more suitable level for the user. The higher the Counter Hero rank, the more targets that can be targeted with it at a time to have their stat ranks decreased along with how much their stats are decreased by. Things such as Noble Phantasms and Skills wouldn’t be affected by Counter Hero however.[/hider] Now, with all that said and done, there would be a grand total of eleven (possibly ten if I remove Progenitor) classes to choose from when creating a Servant: [b][i]Saber, the Servant of the Sword[/b][/i] [b][i]Lancer, the Servant of the Lance[/b][/i] [b][i]Archer, the Servant of the Bow[/b][/i] [b][i]Rider, the Servant of Mounts[/b][/i] [b][i]Caster, the Servant of Magic[/b][/i] [b][i]Assassin, the Servant of the Shadows[/b][/i] [b][i]Berserker, the Servant of Madness[/b][/i] [b][i]Avenger, the Servant of Vengeance[/b][/i] [b][i]Ruler, the Servant of Worship[/b][/i] [b][i]Beast, the Servant of Creatures[/b][/i] [b][i]Progenitor, the Servant of Concepts[/b][/i] As stated in my previous post, there would be no limits to the amount of Servants that can be summoned per class, nor would anything be canon in this setting. So for example, if you wanted King Arthur to be a male or a female, then go for it! Just be reasonable is all I ask of thee! >_< I'm working on the character sheets for both Masters and Servants as I post while also trying to balance out the added classes (I'm looking at you Progenitor class) while also not having there be too many restrictions. In the meantime, I would really appreciate any feedback, advice, criticism, or if anyone would be interested in something like this! Seriously! I wont bite or anything, I promise!
