To see the details of this person face is impossible with the only except being the blue eyes that glow through the visor of their helmet, the rest of their body in in a similar situation where the armor that they don is made for the practicality of the battle field. Through those armored pieces that make this suit of armor, it also gently glows with energy that seem to hum of power contained within. [/indent] [sub][b] Personality[/b][/sub] [sub][sup]▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔[/sup][/sub] [INDENT]For some people, the Lord of the Distant Isles is not just a title placed on Lancer but a apt description of who he is as an individual as well. He holds the visage of someone who carries the word of 'Strong' and 'Silent' on their shoulders that anyone would recognize upon looking at him. That weight that he seems to carry doesn't simply come from just his appearance but with a certain pull that is palpable to those within his presence, a sense of intensity and brilliance that could be felt even through that armor. Despite that, there is a distance that he places between himself and others in a reserved and taciturn nature that undoubtedly leaves a chilly atmosphere that wards most individuals away with perceived coarseness. When that individual inside the suit finally does speak to prove its existence, it speaks with a tiredness and wariness that lingers on his words as a fatigued and jaded individual comes out. For the rarity of his spoken words, it is perhaps better to have just a silent companion as he is blunt and sharp with his words, cutting to the heart of any issue that he finds. He'll make it known about his opinions if anything seems dubious or if something needs his attention, that he will immediately convey.[/INDENT] [/cell][/row][/table][sub][b] Character Synopsis[/b][/sub] [sub][sup]▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔[/sup][/sub] [indent]The tale of Galehaut, if legends told to be true, was about a man of great prowess and skill that was destined to beat the promised King of Knights. As a figure unknown to the court of the Round Table, he was renown for his honor as a knight and as a powerful figure with land he has taken. He rose up from the unknown ranks into a figure who could challenge the legacy that the Round Table sought to achieve, earning him the moniker as the Knight of Obscurity. It was rumored that he was born from the lineage of phantasmal beasts known as the Giants that were thought to have slowly been slowly dying out, trapped in the land of mankind due to this physical bodies being unable to reach the Reverse Side of the World. By the period of King Arthur, as mystery was disappearing around the world, true giants were thought to be extinct or at the very least, a legend if one was to encounter one. However, outside of his destined legend to defeat the King of Knights, not much is known about Galehaut when looking through the works of the Arthurian Cycle. His only reprieve from this enigma is mostly through his interactions with Lancelot and a few mentions that are sparsely scattered throughout the legends. The only part of his story that has some renown or merit are the different accounts of how he died in his life. Some say that after he heard Lancelot was killed he was distraught and depressed and shut himself away and died of grief, others say he died fighting in the battle of Camlann, others in the peaceful sleep. No one knows´s other than Galehuat, and when asked of his death, he only will give a cold blue eyes look before staying silent never speaking a word. For the reason that he is in this war is once again for a selfish wish that he intended to make for himself.

It comes from the fact that he was raised from his particular parentage and possessing the blood of a Phantasmal Beast, being capable of canceling spells of A-Rank or below, no matter what High-Thaumaturgy it is. Along with the fact that even an army that was backed up by the wizard Merlin was defeated by Lancer, this rank is respectable for such a feat. In practice, he is a Servant who is untouchable by modern magi, so it would not be an exaggeration to title the Servant a 'Magus Killer'. Against magecraft that focuses on taking down phantasmal beasts or even giant-kind, his magic resistance may not function to its fullest until tested due to the rarity of encountering such individuals. [/INDENT][/INDENT] [sub][b] Personal Skills[/b][/sub] [sub][sup]▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔[/sup][/sub] [INDENT][sub][b]// Charisma:[/b][/sub][/INDENT] [INDENT][INDENT][b][i]B Rank[/i][/b] | Though unknown to Arthur and his court, Galehaut has already conquered lands and acquired considerable power, loyal followers, and a reputation for being a noble character. Being a composite Skill consisting of a person's charm as well as the natural talent to command or unify an army or country. Increases the ability of allies during group battles. Lancer having a B Rank in this Skill is sufficient to lead a nation as its potential king, with the morale of military forces he or she commands is extremely high. [/INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT][sub][b]// Blood of The Giants:[/b][/sub][/INDENT] [INDENT][INDENT][b][i]A Rank[/i][/b] | The skill which represents the lineage that flows through his blood, granting Lancer the gifts of Giant-kind, a species of Phantasmal Beasts in the decline towards extinction after the Age of Gods. As one coming from the lineage of a full-blooded giant as his mother, he is effectively a demi-giant in nature and displays a variety of their physical traits. He gains their physical strength and hardiness as a form of [Monstrous Strength] that represents the abilities intrinsic to one as a member of Giant-kind. While Lancer will be weak to those who are monster-slayers or armaments which slays monsters, the innate abilities of his kind makes him stronger than his parameters would otherwise indicate. Allowing him to temporarily increase both his [Strength] and [Endurance] parameters by one rank up for the duration that he is supporting this skill. In terms of his strength when he utilizes the qualities of his blood, it allows for Lancer to go beyond the normal limitations of what a average Servant could achieve he has something superior than A Rank but not close enough to be considered A+ Rank Strength. [/INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT][sub][b]// Eye of the Mind (True):[/b][/sub][/INDENT] [INDENT][INDENT][b][i]A Rank[/i][/b] | Described as a person who emerged from the foreground to challenge King Arthur for his entire realm, having already 'conquered' lands on his journey as he acquired their immense power, their loyalty, and a noble reputation comparable to the King. In truth though, he did not consider himself to be anyone's liege or leader but felt responsibility for his zealous followers and self-proclaimed vassals when they issued their challenge to King Arthur. Having attracted the attention and provoking the ire of the King and his Knights of the Round Table, he sought to see that no one would spill any unnecessary blood over such a misunderstanding. As such his careful machinations on the battle field weren't just noteworthy as a individual but as a commander of armies, it was a feat of legends as he slowly cornered the Knights of the Round Table. It was there that he ceased the opportunity of finding a peaceful solution to diffuse the situation as he settle the war with as few lives lost as he could manage. To even ensure that peace would be brought, he even surrendered himself to the King of Knights and through Lancelot's recommendation, became one of the very members that he fought against to make sure that even that fates couldn't spurn peace. As such, his prestigious skills at not only being a Knight-errant, but as a leader who was able to take on King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table provides merit for the level of skill. In terms as a individual, the amount of battle experience he had seemed to be an endless abyss when the Knights of the Round Table faced off against him. He is on a level some-what comparable to Lancelot and Gawain who can be his equals if not his superiors, as they are individuals blessed by the world that he cannot compare to, even with his monstrous blood. Against Lancelot and Gawain, he can only fight defensively against those two knight's overwhelming capabilities until he can seize mistake or opening that presents itself. Even then he is severely lacking a finishing or final move compared to Lancelot's Arondight which is dangerous all the time or Excalibur Galatine which is overkill in most applications. It is only through his death that he received something comparable through the aggregation of his life being crystallized into his Noble Phantasms. Against these individuals who were blessed by the world with their own gifts, Lancer's ability to face each one of them and survive such a period where these Heroic Spirits existed is impressive. As such, Lancer's ability of calm analysis is among the best as he is capable of observing the abilities of his opponents as well as those on the battlefield even if in threat of immediate danger. This allows for him to develop an appropriate plan of action to enact long after he has considered all the possibilities of escape from his predicament should he need it. [/INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT][sub][b]// Determination of Steel:[/b][/sub] [INDENT][b][i]B- Rank[/i][/b] | A composite Skill, combining the effects of the Bravery and Calm and Collected Skills at the same level, which allows Lancer to ignore pain that is inflicted onto him. With the mentality of avoiding confusion in all situations, he can suppress his own emotion and calmly observes his surroundings, guiding him towards optimum tactics to take during a situation. As the individual who sought to take over Britain from the King of Knights, challenge the entirety of the Round Table, and face the legendary Merlin who backed Camelot. It is simply expected for Lancer to possess a skill that sought to do the impossible and overturn the guaranteed rule of King Arthur. Its negative modifier comes into effect against male servants who possess a charm skill, making it interesting when Lancer is an applicable target to their abilities. Restraint is still possible although the true strength of this skill is significantly diminished under their presence. All it does is proving that Lancelot does indeed have a high ranking of [Protection of the Fairies]... While rallied under his banner, the effects of [Determination of Steel] may only apply to Lancer himself, through [Charisma] he may convince others to follow his tactics and reassure them of any doubts. He was the one that possessed the diligence in slowly gaining ground against Camelot, observing the tides of battle and bringing his forces to defeat their army. Allowing for such a combination of skill in order to solidify his men's beliefs in victory and success, improving their morale more than what [Charisma] may normally offer. [/INDENT][/INDENT] [sub][b] Noble Phantasms[/b][/sub] [sub][sup]▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔[/sup][/sub] [INDENT][sub][b]// The Knight of Obscurity - Uncrowned Lord of the Ever Distant Isles:[/b][/sub][/INDENT] [INDENT][INDENT][b][i]B- Rank[/i][/b] | [b][i]Anti-Unit (Self)[/i][/b] | [b][i]Range: 1[/i][/b] | [b][i]Target: 1[/i][/b] That is the the tale of Galehaut, the one who who was going to win against the King of Knights, an event that history would have called as an certain victory for Lancer should the battle been waged between the two. In the end, his life and everything else that he had was given away for the sake of Lancelot. It was a selfish sacrifice that ultimately has been forgotten to the passing of time. Scrubbed from the nooks and crannies of history, that was the price he paid for the time he spent with that knight, throwing away the power he had gathered in the past along with the prestigious potential of his future that served as kindling for those precious moments. This is a Noble Phantasm which represents Lancer's history after he gave up the possibility for prestige and glory. For in that rejection of fame and glory, this Noble Phantasm represents that in the form of the armor he wears, reminiscent of the armaments forged by his giant brethren with techniques and materials now long lost from the hands of humanity. Its durability is worth note taking since it was created by the hands of Phantasmal Beasts, its capable of reducing damage by an D-Rank's worth. It is a set of platemail that he equips, dark blue in color bordering almost a blackish purple, representing the negation of any titles, feats, and designations which can be attached to his name. It ultimately disguises his presence as a mere human and prevents most means to identify him. By doing so, this Noble Phantasm forcibly restricts Lancer's capabilities through the lack of fame and feats that would normally be attributed to Lancer, reducing all of his skills and physical parameters by two ranks except for [Eye of Mind (True)] and [Determination of Steel]. When this skill is sealed due to the activation of Lancer's second Noble Phantasm, it still retains the defensive properties worthy of armor made from the giants but loses its ability to conceal his identity. With the nature of this Noble Phantasm, it is always manifested as the suit of armor that conceals Lancer, glowing with a dull energy that seeps through the plates like a heartbeat. Whenever he exerts any notable power, mist seems to pull out of the armor as if the ocean was contained within, being cold to the touch if anyone felt it. The only signs of life is the dull blue eyes which glow with a similar ominous energy which peers out into the world while restrained in that cage. [/INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT][sub][b]// Ephemeral Knight - My Life Given For You:[/b][/sub][/INDENT] [INDENT][INDENT][b][i]B++ Rank[/i][/b] | [b][i]Anti-Destiny [/i][/b] | [b][i]Range: 1 - 99[/i][/b] | [b][i]Target: 1000 people[/i][/b] Lancer's second Noble Phantasm is locked behind [ The Knight of Obscurity ] requiring him to completely seal the first one for the remainder of the war in order to pull out the full potential of this Noble Phantasm. A power resting inside the spear that he wields, being immaculate in quality for it is also a creation of the ancient giants. Forged by those ancient beings that no ordinary human could reproduce in skill, an art form of theirs now long lost in the modern day. A spear that was made to contest against the King of Knights and the Knights of the Round Table, matching the capabilities of Excalibur and Arondight in clash between craftsmanship. The power of an king, destined for conquering an age where heroes and the remainder of phantasmal beasts still held their power, is slumbering within this spear. A sleep brought on by that docile love for a certain knight which placed a seal on Lancer's capabilities in order for him to simply spend with him. By itself, this Noble Phantasm is simply a spear magnificently made, sharper than any kind of sword even if made by the hands of a ordinary master and similarly unable to be broken weaponry inferior to it in quality. The strength of giants imbued within the spear to never waiver or break in a contest of blades, being a testament of the phantasmal beasts who made this spear. Its quality itself serves as a vessel worthy of simply the rank of this Noble Phantasm as its base that can be built upon. A spear that is made out of his feats, ideals, and choices that he made in life which has manifested itself in his class as Lancer. The first modifier can be applied by simply wielding the Noble Phantasm, which stirs the slumbering power that sleeps within the blade. Allowing for the manipulation of fate, to a degree, that is fixated on Lancer himself as the center, which his destiny surrounds and swirls. Being able to shred through the impossibilities and open a path which it is attainable or forever close the door of a future which is attainable, making it impossible to obtain. That was the power imbued into this spear that Lancer possessed, facing off [Excalibur] as the [Sword of Promised Victory] and essentially winning before he resigned his victory towards him. Or at least... that is what it would be at its full potential. While his first Noble Phantasm [The Knight of Obscurity ] has not been sealed, he is only capable of exerting his 'destiny' to manifest itself in small ways. As a Noble Phantasm that begins to overturn fate itself, possessing power to change the destiny of those who are loved by the world, with immutable truths now become something unsure to be observed or predicted. Applying pressure against those who face against Lancer with an high [Luck] parameter which shows their capability to defy fate with their latent ability or abilities which can manipulate fate. Those who possess that potential are easier to be moved by Lancer out of their preordained fate, with those possessing higher [Luck] or [ Fate Manipulation ] skills are easier to be affected. Against Lancer they receive a single negative modifier for each level they go above [C Rank]. The second modifier is unlocked by sealing completely Lancer's first Noble Phantasm for the remainder of the Holy Grail War. Removing the anonymity that he possessed, the Throne of Heroes recognizes the feats and exploits of Lancer which enables him recreate the paramount overturn of destiny just like he did in life. The potential of Lancer's second Noble Phantasm is now fully available to be used, being a wave of change to turn impossibilities into events which can be realized or close the doors to the future, denying the obtainable and creating something impossible to be achieved. However, the usage of this Noble Phantasm is extremely draining for what it tries to overcome. This active use of his Second Noble Phantasm can only be used in reaction to something that has already been enacted or currently in effect, employing the concept of 'Denial of Destiny' in response. Shedding a pale blue light that will counter the applicable target, taking the form it needs while consuming the energy from Lancer to overturn the effect. In what is essentially brute forcing his way through using magical energy to match the output just enough to just cancel out the target. With the Noble Phantasm matching itself toward the current threat that it is facing, it is possible that Lancer may completely extinguish his magical energy reserves before actually nullifying the effect due to how mana intensive this can get. [/INDENT][/INDENT] [hider=Skills under Noble Phantasm's Effect] [sub][b] Class Skills[/b][/sub] [sub][sup]▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔[/sup][/sub] [INDENT][sub][b]// Magic Resistance (Restricted):[/b][/sub][/INDENT] [INDENT][INDENT][b][i]C Rank[/i][/b] | When donning his Noble Phantasm [The Knight of Obscurity], even Lancer's class skills are affected as it drops down by two ranks to this level at C Rank. It is still at a rank which is effective enough to cancel out spells with a chant below two verses but it can't compete against magecraft on the level of High-Thaumaturgy and Greater Rituals like normal.[/INDENT][/INDENT] [sub][b] Personal Skills[/b][/sub] [sub][sup]▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔[/sup][/sub] [INDENT][sub][b]// Charisma (Restricted):[/b][/sub][/INDENT] [INDENT][INDENT][b][i]D- Rank[/i][/b] | Perhaps it is justified that when donning his Noble Phantasm, his capabilities for leadership is significantly reduces as it was a symbol he threw away for just one individual. As such, he possesses this skill at the D Rank not for his ability of leadership but instead his personality that is filled with an intensity that could push people away or pull them in if he wanted to. This changes when he attempts to use this skill to command a larger unit, this skill receives a negative-modifier as it becomes near-nonexistent, as only a small fraction of his skill can shine through the shame he has.[/INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT][sub][b]// Blood of The Giants (Restricted):[/b][/sub][/INDENT] [INDENT][INDENT][b][i]C Rank[/i][/b] | Even the nature of his blood seems to be be placated when Lancer's Noble Phantasm [The Knight of Obscurity] when it is activated, seeming to remember the memories imbued within this armor, dropping it down to C Rank. While dropping this skill's rank doesn't betray the fact that Lancer is still an individual who can be called a demi-giant, he seems to be lacking some of the intensity fitting a battle-harden veteran from such an age. As such, using this skill still provides the same benefits for Lancer but to its upkeep and maintenance for using the qualities of his blood is much more costlier. While it is manageable in quick bursts and short duration, it gorges on magical energy that would makes it difficult for him to maintain continuously for a long fight as his blood is unaccustomed to fighting during what was a time of peace for Lancer.
