[hider=Backup Sheet: New Caster] [b]True Name:[/b] Alfonso de Ivrea, Tenth of his name. [b]Title(s):[/b] The Wise, The Learned, King of Castile, Leon, and Galicia. [b]Class:[/b] Caster [b]Gender:[/b] Male. [b]Birth and Death Dates: [/b] 1221 - 1284 [b]Alignment:[/b] Lawful Good. [hr] [b]Motivation for the Holy Grail:[/b] To reincarnate into this world, to seek power, lore, and knowledge, and become the just and fair ruler for all religions. [b]Personality:[/b] An open-minded and tolerant ruler, but one prone to making mistaken laws. A scholar who sits on the ivory tower, yet also a fighter and knight who fought against the infidel whom he would one day rule over. A man of contrasts who lifted up the culture of his nation, even though he drove it into financial ruin and civil war, that is Alfonso X's record in history, rescued in the end by the scholars he was a patron of, the Jews and Muslims who benefited from his lenience, and the works of good quality he himself has produced. After seeing how he barely avoided being seen as a bad ruler, Alfonso X vowed that once he reincarnates (or if), he will study economics and make sure he does not drive Spain into financial ruin again. Not just that, but if his Master has a selfish wish, or even a wish which would cause many lives to suffer, he would strive to undermine their will as secretly and as openly as he could. In contrast, however, if he were ever to encounter a Master with a relatively unselfish wish, one which benefits the innocent hardworkng masses, he would support him or her through thick and thin.

[b]Parameters[/b] [b]Strength:[/b] C [b]Endurance:[/b] B [b]Agility:[/b] D [b]Mana:[/b] A+ [b]Luck:[/b] E [hr] [b]Class Skills:[/b] Territory Creation: B The ability to build a special terrain that is advantageous to a Magus. At this rank, the creation of a “Workshop” is possible - Alfonso X prefers to turn his territories into castles which contain not only the best magical defenses but also contain books, astronomical tools, gardens, and materials for Golemancy. Item Creation: B-- Alfonso X was attributed with translating the Book of Games from Arabic, and the Kabbalah and the Talmud from Hebrew, but he did not do the translation or writing himself - He commissioned others to do it. His main claim to this skill, other than his role as a Caster, is the fact that he did compose poetry in his real life, as well as laid down a comprehensive law code. Even then, without a scribe, whether a living person or a familiar, or some other proxy to make his items for him, his ranks in this skill drop by two. [b]Personal Skills:[/b] Gamer: A Alfonso X had a book of all known games translated into Castilian/Spanish for the edification of himself and his court, and was himself an avid player of chess, dice, and the game which will eventually become modern backgammon. Thus, as a Servant, he immediately knows every rules-based game known to man, whether boardgames, tabletop games, and even videogames, and can substitute his rank in this Skill for his Luck stat (basically, his Luck is A instead of E when playing a game). High-Speed Incantation: B The ability to cast rapid incantations at noteworthy speed. Numerology: B By translating the Kabbalah into Castilian and allowing it to be seen through the lens of Christian Theology, Alfonso X lays a claim to knowledge of Numerology. Golemancy: C+ As someone knowledgable in the Kabbalah, Alfonso knows the theory of Golemancy but has not had any practical experience in it, relying on scribes and proxies to do it for him. Whenever he has a suitable proxy to make Golems with him and for him, Alfonso can raise the quality of his skill by one rank. [hr] [b]Noble Phantasm[/b] [b]True Name:[/b] Christian Kabbalah/Cabala [b]Title:[/b] Hidden Wisdom of the Scriptures [b]Rank:[/b] A [b]NP Type:[/b] Anti-Evil, Anti-Self [b]Range:[/b] 1 - 50 [b]Maximum Number of Targets:[/b] 100 (for Healing and Reinforcement Spells), 1 (For calling on the Light of Ein Soph). [b]Description:[/b] As mentioned, Alfonso X ordered the Kabbalah translated into Castilian, allowing Christians to interpret it through their theology. In the Cabala/Christian Kabbalah, Keter and Hokmah are the Spirit and Father, while Binah, the Divine Mother, becomes the Blessed Virgin. By calling on this esoteric (and heretical) interpretation of holy writ, Alfonso can summon a golden, glowing book that grants the power to cast ritual Magecraft which is above what most Magi can do today. And by that, the text of said book contains spells of healing and removal of curses, as well as the exorcism, purification and sealing of demons and wraiths and things of great evil. It also allows for the casting of Reinforcement spells more powerful than what Modern Magi can do, as well as improve one's skills in Numerology and Golemancy. However, its most powerful function is the ability to call on the divine light of Ein Soph, the infinite, un-manifested essence of God, to smite a single opponent with the pillar of energy that can bypass all defenses of the same rank and below to inflict damage proportionate to their arrogance and pride. In short, the more hubris the target has, the more one is blasted by the light until they are reduced to dust, while those with great humility are not harmed at all. [/hider]
