[hider=Archer Lyudmila Pavlichenko] [img]https://gbf.wiki/images/6/60/Silva_A.png[/img] Name: Lyudmila Mikhailovna Pavlichenko Title(s): The Soviet Union's Most Dangerous Woman Class: Gunner Gender: Female Birth and Death Dates: 12th of July, 1916 - 10th of October, 1974 Alignment: Lawful Neutral Personality: Lyudmila was a dedicated woman who was a model Soviet soldier. She adhered to orders and carried them out to the absolute best of her ability. She was studious, a quick learner, and had the instincts of a honed huntress. Even after the war, she was focused and sharp, taking her intense discipline with her into her career as a historian. However, she also had the horribly common habit of trying to shoulder everything. Through a combination of her skill and being a bit older than the other female recruits, she became someone to look up to. When a mere 500 female snipers of the 2,000 who joined survived, she held herself personally responsible. If only she had been better, a better teacher, a better role model, a better guardian, maybe those women might still live. That is why she fights in this Grail War. Her wish is for another chance. A chance to try even harder, to save as many of her comrades as she possibly can. Appearance: Lyudmila has silvery hair and deep crimson eyes. She is lean and lithe, and wears a blue military uniform jacket with long coattails. She also commonly dons a brownish-gray hooded cloak. Bio: Lyudmila was in Bila Tservka in 1916. By fourteen she joined a sharpshooting club and was an employee at the Kiev Arsenal Company. She was twenty-four and in her fourth year of studying history at Kiev University when the Germans invaded the Soviet Union. She was one of the first volunteers at her nearby recruitment station, and a mere two months later she made her first two kills as a sniper, using her Tokarev SVT-40 rifle. She and many other female snipers were assigned to the 25th Rifle Division, and almost all of them looked up to her. Many of them were scared and very young, barely even adults. She took them under her wing and considered them all under her personal care. That same month, she was promoted to senior sergeant when she confirmed her 100th kill, carrying her squad to glory. A year later, as a freshly promoted Lieutenant, she reached 250 confirmed kills and her fame swelled. She added to that fame by also starting to take out enemy snipers as well. She continued to battle the German army for eight months in Sevastopol when the tables turned on her and her sisters in arms. The city was well under siege by the oncoming German army. The battle had raged on, and was nothing short of grueling. Sleep was broken, and a sudden explosion or a particularly thundering round of gunfire constantly kept the squad on edge and awake. Stress was getting to everyone, and Lyudmila didn't keep her girls on as tight a leash as normal. They were tired, she was tired. They had earned what little reprieve she could give. When the Germans' mortars fell, they were too scrambled and unprepared to respond. Explosions sounded all around them, destroying the buildings and parks they had been resting in. From the very first explosion, Lyudmila had lost a few of her girls. By the fourth she found herself wounded and trapped, pinned in place underneath rubble and debris, forced to watch all of her sisters fall while she lay trapped, surviving through an unwillingness to die and a bit of good fortune. Just in time, but all too late another squadron arrived to save Lyudmila. She was one of a handful of survivors of that attacks, and the 25th Rifle Division was listed as destroyed. Given her status as a symbol for Russian soldiers, she was pulled from active duty and trained new snipers until the war's end. After the war, she received her Master's in history and worked as a historian. She received all manner of reward and recognition, even from the leaders of other countries, but never forgot the horrors of failing her girls. Watching them die. She carried that guilt until she died in 1974 at 58 years old. Weapon: Carries an NR-40 Soviet combat knife. It's in decent condition, and has a particularly long blade, but is otherwise unremarkable. Parameters: Strength: D Endurance: C Agility: B Mana: E Luck: C Class Skills: NAME OF SKILL: Marksmanship RANK: A DESCRIPTION: Lyudmila is celebrated as one of the greatest military snipers of all time, and is the most successful female sniper in history. She is credited with over 300 kills, with between 35 and 40 of those kills being enemy snipers. NAME OF SKILL: Independent Action RANK: B DESCRIPTION: Lyudmila's life as a sniper meant she had to move in small squads, and oftentimes alone. She became accustomed to, and skilled at, surviving in the harsh Russian wilderness. Personal Skills: NAME OF SKILL: Sniper's Perch RANK: B DESCRIPTION: Lyudmila can masterfully settle into a spot and take enemies out from it with ruthless efficiency. Skill functions as Presence Concealment of the same rank, but the Servant only gets the effect if she is lying still in an area that she knows contains hostiles. [Hides one's presence as a Servant. Suitable for spying. It is possible to disappear and become extremely difficult to be detected. The rank of Presence Concealment drops considerably when preparing to attack.] Noble Phantasm: Name: Lyudmila's SVT-40 Title: Best Shot in Soviet Russia Rank: C (B) NP Type: Anti-Unit Range: 5-99 Maximum Number of Targets: 1 Description: Lyudmila's Noble Phantasm is her deadliest shot fired from her personal rifle, the same shot that claimed the lives of over three hundred enemies. The shot deals immense damage to any target in a localized point that allows it to easily pierce obstacles between her and her target, leaving a small, circular hole. Both the penetrative and killing power of this shot is increased while her Sniper's Perch skill is active. [/hider]
