[@DarkwolfX37] Let me answer these to my best ability: [quote]I don't see Medaka Kurokami, half the cast of One Piece... Kamijou Touma and Kamisato Kakeru ffs. In fact, just banning the main characters from a lot of those characters' series leaves some equally powerful characters available. I guess I don't understand if you plan on the characters simply being as they are in their series but brought to a new world, or if you plan on the characters being morphed to fit the mold of Fate servants. For example, Accelerator pre-brain damage or post-WW3 would be obviously overpowered if brought in as-is, but there's an argument for him not being too powerful if he's remade under Fate's rules and had his battery power limit. Similarly, it's odd to ban Light Yagami since his power comes from an item and specifically requires someone's full name, something that Servants already hide on principal. Even with the Death Note as his Noble Phantasm, in order for it to work he'd need to somehow learn a target's name, and giving it some magic reason to not work on non-servants would be easy. Even just "he's a servant and it's not an actual Death Note but a power resembling it, thereby making it only work on Servants/those not participating in the HGW" would suddenly make him logically viable.[/quote] for Medaka Kurokami I've not seen Medaka Box so I'm not sure how powerful she actually is. as for Kamijou Touma and Kamisato Kakeru. I overlooked them and totally forgot about them so I take full responsibility for that. I do see your point with most of the characters of One Piece and most other animes since the main character might not be as strong as another character in the anime. however, I never thought about nerfing many characters under Fates rules so I'll look into changing the rules a bit. I'm still going to keep a few characters on the ban list, but that's just for the sake of keeping everything fair. [quote]There's also the question of how faithful to the character's origins they have to be. What about multiple sources, such as Frost from DBS? His character in the anime and manga are very different from each other. To use an ambiguous example, Chara from Undertale raises some questions. There's very little canon information about them, and a lot of what's there is fairly up for interpretation. How would a Servant like that work? How much of a character can fit into their Servant self before having to allocate traits to their NP? Can a fictional character be used as a Master or only Servants? Either way, does the content they originate from exist in-world or are they totally unknown and only work through some new system that bypasses the need for a legend? Are Servants summoned randomly or is a suitable catalyst still needed? Does this war use the Stay Night, Extra, Extella, or Grand Order system, or a brand new one? Are class statistics important or are they more suggestions than rules, and to what degree? [/quote] for being Faithful to the character I'm allowing either the anime, Manga, or a combination of both as long as it's not overpowered or god-like. if the character has little to no backstory on their information then they won't be accepted and as for the requirements for servants being summoned. it's random. the master will create a pact and a random servant will heed their call. all the master has to do is call for a servant and one will randomly heed their call. [quote]Are you expecting players to have multiple characters beyond the one Servant/one Master per player, or are you planning to try to get all of those character slots filled separately? If fictional characters are allowed as Servants, does that mean fictional OCs are allowed? At what point does diversion from the source character into an OOC version does a character stop being allowed? What about multiple versions of the same character appearing as Servants? Further, what about the potential for Lily, Alter, etc. versions of characters from non-Fate series? Would Lily Goku be acceptable, for example? What about imaginary characters within a series, such as Suzushina Yuriko? If someone didn't use a fictional character, how much freedom do they have in making an actual historical or real-life mythological person into a Servant? What about summons into classes that don't necessarily make sense right away, like Gilgamesh's various class summons or Lancer Artoria for example. Could Krillin be summoned as a Saber, for example, because his Distructo-Disc is a cutting technique? Would he be able to be a Rider because he can fly, or an Archer because of his ki blasts, or would he be forced into Caster because of his ki usage, etc.?[/quote] I only expect people to have one servant and one master. if they chose to have more that's up to them and if the slots are empty. I only have so many slots to allow anyone one to play the servant they want. the OC's I'm only allowing are for masters, not servants. Lilly characters can be allowed if their non-Lilly counterpart isn't in already and vise-versa. for that, I'll let you know if a Lilly character or normal character has been taken. as for the class system, I'm leaving that up to the RPGer. if they feel a character needs to be one class over the other then they need to explain why. Hopefully that helps. let me know if you have anymore questions
