Yes, it's me, I'm still here! A shame about Atalanta, but oh well!

Name: Parthenopeus
Title: Son of Atalanta
Class: Archer
Gender: Male
Attribute: 
Alignment: Chaotic Evil

Personality: Imperious, prideful, and vicious. The boy, while at once charming and easy to be around, has a brutal streak of viciousness and almost impenetrable pride. He has threatened to kill for insult, he called himself too old to fight the Theban soldiers defending their homes, and he has betrayed battlefield mercies and stabbed men who simply did not want to kill children in the back.

The boy is a cruel murderer who cares not for human life - who left home at a tender age, merely because his bow had yet to taste the glory of mankilling. He marched to war as if it would be without consequence, and ignored the words of his mother, of his enemies, and even of his patron goddess, Artemis. He did not care for or think of his mother - he did not think for or care for anyone besides himself, and his own desire to wet the ground with blood.

... But, all that said, he's still a boy. Kids are cruel.

Is this really how he has to be?

Objective for the Grail: A war truly worth fighting, and the strength to fight in it!


Background: https://www.poetryintranslation.com/PITBR/Latin/StatiusThebaidI.php

Weapon: A bow and arrow. Javelins.
Parameters:
STR:D
CON:E
AGI:A+
MGI:D
LCK:E

Class Skills:
Independent Action A - It is possible to take action even without a Master. However, to use Noble Phantasms of great magical energy consumption, backup from the Master is necessary. At Rank A, it is possible for a Servant to stay in the world for about a week without a Master.

Magic Resistance C - Cancel spells with a chant below two verses. Cannot defend against magecraft on the level of High Thaumaturgy and Greater Rituals


Personal Skills: 

Sadistic Charm: B - Beautiful looks that belie a ruthless nature. Make no mistake; under that beauty there is a foulness, a heart too eager for bloodshed. And yet, even on the field of battle, this blessing (curse) of beauty is striking enough to stop a soldier in his tracks. ... And then, a moment later, to be stricken through the side and killed heartlessly. The curse grows stronger by application - the more he hits you, the more stunning he seems, and the less right it seems to fight him. This is a curse that may be refuted with a sufficient Luck check, but also may be mitigated, for a time, with a powerful enough will.

Aesthetics of the Last Spurt: C+ - Once an enemy takes the initiative, and after confirming their actions, he can act to anticipate them. Furthermore, those under the effect of Smiling Sadist are more swiftly and easily read, allowing him to take advantage of any reluctance to fight him.

Arcadian Inheritance: B - The son of Atalanta carries certain physical traits, along with her own. His eyes are more keen than a normal man's, and has nearly perfect night vision, and his balance is near perfect, due to his tail, for example. In essence, he is something other than 'just' a boy. He is a boy who embodies the attributes and nature of a cat.



Sympathy of the Moon Goddess: B - Before his final battle, Artemis, upon failing once more to convince him to step back, offered him a gift. As requested by his mother, she could at least assure his death would be a glorious one. In compensation for his inescapable fate, she applied a twin set of blessings. First, a blessing of ambrosia across his body, to keep him from wound until his death. This acts similarly to the skill Battle Continuation. Secondly, she blessed him with certain chants and secret magic, that generally enhanced his bodily dexterity and speed, such that it seemed impossible for a single man to fight as many as he did.

However, as his fate is inescapable, his LCK is dramatically lowered.

Noble Phantasm: 

Name: Blessings of the Huntress

Title: Aristeia of Merciful Glory

Rank: C

NP Type: Anti-Unit

Range: 10-50

Maximum Number of Targets: -

Description: When the boy huntress left his home in Arcadia, he was not ready for war. Too young, his mother said. Too fresh, his mother pleaded. Wars are for men, and he ought stay home, before he went and got himself killed, she begged. Ah, he heard it again, though, didn't he? On the killing fields, at the Walls of Thebes, he heard those words again - This is a war for men, not children. He refused to believe it - if they die so swiftly, he said, then he must be too old for a battle this useless. ... But his mother knew better. But his patron, the virgin huntress, knew better. Truly, it seemed everyone did but he.

But Apollo did not deceive her, and his fate would not change. The only gift Artemis could give him was that of glory.

Indeed, this is the finest gift she could offer a boy on his way to die.

The arrows fired by Archer have a latent blessing from Artemis, and those struck by them are infected by that blessing (curse). The curse, as it was not intended for the bearer, threatens to tear them apart from the weight of it. Those with sufficient Luck can defy the curse, and those with the Moon Goddess’ approval are immune to it.

Upon the invocation of the Noble Phantasm’s name, the blessing to the arrows activates, and their true lethality is demonstrated. Each arrow is blessed to never miss, automatically tracking and hunting their targets, though they can be blocked or evaded. This effect lasts one minute, and is on every arrow fired within that time. He can easily swap targets during the duration of the Noble Phantasm.
