A Holy Grail War

For centuries Fuyuki City has hosted the Grail War, a tourney in which mages from all over the world participate, calling forth heroic spirits of the past to fight alongside them in hopes that after claiming victory... their wish will come true. The omnipotent wish-granting device has reappeared, summoning seven masters and seven servants in its wake.

The year is 1990, and a rather recent Volcanic Eruption has changed Japan as we know it. Dimming the historical "land of the rising sun" and causing temperatures there to drop, creating storms, producing frosts and floods, and generally darkening the landscape. This extreme weather has decimated harvests as well, leading to hunger, poverty, and displacement.

In the midst of all this, you have been called upon by the universe itself to fight. A deep desire within you, whether you are aware of it or not, has connected you to the grail like a moth drawn to the flame. The darkened sky is merely a foretelling of the tragedies to come and let us not forget the color we see when our eyes are closed. In the absence of light. Perhaps even in death? Eigengrau... the same color as that volcanic ash which has laid waste to the country.

Maybe. I always like a Fate RP but got a lot going on currently. But hey, a few questions for you if you don't mind to get conversation started:

1. You don't seem to have yourself listed in reserve list, so I was wondering if you planned to play a character or just play as "the world"/strictly a GM?
2. Are you wanting seven players to each play two characters or just open it up for whoever? Like player 1 playing servant and master, player 2 only playing a master, player 3 only playing a servant, etc.

1. Hey! Yeah, I wanted to play a character as well as GM if possible but I wanted to let other people have the first pick! It doesn't matter to me which class I have to play, so letting other people go first seems fair : )

2. Yes. Ideally, I'd like for it to be seven people (you play your own master and servant) just because that is a very convenient and simple way to run it. That being said, you could make your master pretty obsolete/in the background if you wanted, but I don't want that to be a common theme!

Thanks for showing interest and I am 100% willing to hear ideas/suggestions if you have any. I'm very excited to write the story so!

Gotcha, makes sense! No suggestions from me so far. I know some people prefer to pair with their servant/master characters with other players but personally I don't mind either way. Maybe think about allowing for that if it's alright with you as a GM. The sort of bleak setting you described seems an interesting backdrop for the story. I have a vague character concept forming but if I have more questions I'll let ya know!

Alright awesome! Once a few more people show interest I'll be making it a real deal. Yeah, as long as we have the people to support that I'd be fine with it 100%, someone else playing the servant or master would make it more interesting for sure.

Always been meaning to join a Fate rp, but somehow still haven't - maybe it's time to fix that! Would be especially cool to play a Servant or a Master for someone else, but can play both if needed too.

If I end up playing a Servant, will probably go the cliché route with a Saber!

Ohh! Happy to have you aboard. I'll go ahead and reserve you for the Saber slot. Excited to see what you come up with!! Since both of yall expressed interest, we'll probably try and have people play just one character (master or servant). It may be more fun that way!

Definitely interested! I'll probably stick with just a Master since people usually want to make a Servant, but if for some reason we are low on players, I can fill a slot if needed.

Quick question though - did the eruption just affect Japan and the surrounding countries, or the world as a whole? My Master will probably be foreign and not as impacted.

Great question! It would mainly have affected Japan, but other countries would know about it of course, though they would care about it significantly less. It would be fun to see that reaction, arriving in what looks to be the depths of despair. Excited to see your master when this boots up!

Interesting. I think I've got someone in mind for this. It's an Assassin, but don't reserve me for that slot just yet~

I just got an idea for a Caster, so I'm going to go ahead and claim that. Later tonight I'll put this in the actual roleplay section, and we can start submitting!

Cool to see this picking up. My idea for master and servant are forming more and more, so if it's alright you can put me down for Archer?

I'll stick with just playing a Servant in case someone desires just to play a Master, if that is fine! Does anyone from the main F/sn cast exist in this setting, btw?

Have a couple Lancers I've been meaning to finish off, could throw one of them in. Might be able to do a Master too.

They would exist! I will allow people to make members of the big three families (Einzbern, Tohsaka, Matou) if you so desire, but playing as a canon master/magus won't be allowed, they exist but they are not the focal point of this story! Also, I believe my friend will be joining soon and she would prefer to just be a master so it works out just fine : )
