[u][b]History[/b][/u]

Before there was a Spain, there was Castile-Leon, the most powerful Kingdom in the Iberian Peninsula. And Alfonso was the Crown Prince, dutifully helping his father reconquer the lands that would become Spain from the Moors, and later, the King who would take from the achievements of all three Abrahamic Faiths - Jewish, Christian, and Muslim - to make his court a center of culture, wisdom, and in secret, the Occult. He was not just a conqueror; he was a builder, a lawmaker, and a scholar, even earning a mention in the United States Capitol, due to how his laws are still used in the American Southwest.

He fought off an invasion by the remaining Moors, took one of their remaining Sultanates, then reduced the last remnants of their nation to their final sliver of land in Granada. But he also knew that they had knowledge to contribute to the world, and so he translated their works from Arabic to Castilian, works of Astronomy, Mathematics, Alchemy, and the properties of precious stones and talismans (Mineralogy). 

And while unlike his descendants and their Inquisitions, he tolerated the Jews, he forced them to translate the Kabbalah to that same language, enabling other scholars to gradually Christianize its teachings. By personally supervising the translation, he learned a lot of secrets that the Kabbalists had kept away from prying eyes, including Golemancy, where he mixed Avicebron (Solomon ibn Gabriol)'s teachings with what he knew about Astrology (Astromancy in Clock Tower jargon) and Mineralogy, giving it a gloss more acceptable to his co-religionists and The Holy Church.

But more relevant to this tale is that he was a gamer, compiling an entire book on how to play chess, dice, and early backgammon, and this, not just his achievements in translation, the compiling of works on astrology, and getting [i]a crater on the moon named after him[/i] in modern times, earn him the role of Caster in this Grail War.

[u][b]Personality[/b][/u]

A believer in chivalry, but also pragmatic when called to it, Alfonso genuinely believes in the virtues of Knighthood and that true Knights should strive for virtue. A believer in the fruits of tolerance and understanding (as much as a medieval ruler can be), Alfonso is more than pleased to talk with scholars, translate their writings to his own language, and yes, share the fruits of his wisdom with his 'subjects' (aka Spaniards and people from former Spanish Colonies). He appreciates Masters who are scholarly and wise and not snobbish towards other sources of knowledge, and holds them to his own standards of Knighthood, even if they are not Knights themselves, making sure they do not harm civilians.

He also expects his Master or Mistress to ride or pilot the Mechs he creates; this is not him absorbing them into the Golems by force - He keeps insisting he is not an inhuman monster - but rather them voluntarily serving as its core as long as they are in it. He even provides escape pods for them made out of clay should they be defeated. 

Alfonso X's Wish is to revive the glory of Spain and turn Spanish into the language of culture and scholarship once again, displacing English and French.

[b][u]Class Skills[/u][/b]
        [b]Territory Creation (B+):[/b] A King of one of the greatest kingdoms of Western Europe at that time, who poured his resouces into maintaing a court of scholars of different faiths, who translated books from Latin, Arabic, and Hebrew into Castilian at great expense can certainly justify a world-class workshop dedicated to acquiring, digesting, and 'hispanizing' the knowledge of the world. But as he is called to specialize in this Grail War, the Workshop has to focus on one or two things, in this case, Golemancy. In order to avoid overlap with Avicebron, whose writings he had ordered translated, Alfonso focuses on making a small, limited number of high-quality Golems empowered with a small number of weapons and armor; these, in turn, can be piloted by Humans, who voluntarily serve as the Golems' core but are not absorbed into them - He is not an inhuman monster!
        
        [b]Item Creation (C++):[/b] By ordering the translation of Avicebron's texts on Golemancy, Alfonso can justify knowing it. By being a gamer, Alfonso can justify having knowledge about Mechs pumped into him by the Throne of Heroes. By combining the two, plus the unique properties of his Workshop, plus his Noble Phantasm, and of course, confining himself to a single specialization (Mechs!), Alfonso can build powerful Anime Mechs out of clay, scrolls containing the Name of God, and have them be piloted by his Master or those serving said Master. He can also build specialized weapons and armor for each Golem he creates, further improving the quality of each individual one, and add ejection seats for the Master in case they are defeated.

[u][b]Personal Skills[/b][/u]
        [b]A Personal Touch (B):[/b] Alfonso had a stake in making his court a center of culture, and personally supervised the translation work going on in his scriptorium, or book-making workshop, during his life. Now that his Workshop as a Heroic Spirit is oriented to making Golems, maintaining Golems, and building weapons and armor for them, this tendency to supervise or join in important tasks manifests differently, in that he can customize individual Golems to make them stronger, more enduring, capable of carrying magical railguns, faster and unlike Avicebron's, able to [i]fly[/i].
        
        [b]Numerology (B):[/b] As stated, Alfonso personally supervised the translation of books on numerology, learning a decent amount of knowledge in it, and thus justifying his possession of this Skill. As his type of Numerology comes from the Kabbalah, it is based on Gematria, where not only does each letter have a numerical value, but so do specific phrases and terms; this allows him to compress entire spells into a single number or short strings of them; this allows him to 'program' his golems with multiple commands.
        
        [b]Gamer (A):[/b] Alfonso, as a Caster, is summoned in his role as the translator, compiler, and writer of the Book of Games, giving him knowledge of all games, their rules, tactics, strategies, and rules-lawyering. Tournaments and Battle Royales, such as the Holy Grail War, qualify as a game for this skill.

[u][b]Noble Phantasms[/b][/u]
        [b]Tablas Alfonsines[/b]
        Title: The Alphonsine Tablets.
        Rank: B+
        NP Type: Anti-Unit
        Range: 1 - 100
        Maximum Number of Targets: 1
        Description: A set of mathematical and astronomical texts meant to provide data for computing the positions of the Sun, the Moon, and the Stars, as the Noble Phantasm of the Servant Caster, the Tablas takes on the form of a mechanical globe similar to CHALDEAS from another timeline. As Alfonso X, in Caster form, is also summoned due to his legacy as an Astrologer and a Gamer, the Tablas acts not just as a magical computer, but also as a Mana Reactor that when placed into just one Golem Mech, gives that Golem and its Pilot inside the attributes of a Noble Phantasm. By that, he puts the Tablas/Core inside a Clay Golem Mech, and the Mech and its Pilot become a Noble Phantasm, able to withstand the attacks of Servants (including other Noble Phantasms), fight Servants on an even footing in both melee and ranged combat, and of course, fly, fire laser beams, and be [i]extremely[/i] lucky.
        
        [b]Libero de los juegos[/b]
        Title: Book of Games.
        Rank: D++
        NP Type: Anti-Unit
        Range: 1 
        Maximum Number of Targets: 1
        Description: Alfonso gathered the knowledge of the Arabs regarding chess, dice, backgammon, and other board games into one text, and added to it; the Book of Games is the crystallization of the idea, and despite its name, it can be both a literal book and so much more. When opened, Alfonso can see the 'Stats and Skills' of his Golems and the people piloting them (Master and Friends), as well as any upgrades the former get. This seems weak at first, but with a True Name Release, he can rearrange the Stats and Skills of each Golem he has and [i]add new upgrades[/i] by reshaping the Clay they are made of. 

With the Pilots' explicit consent, he can spend a lot of Mana to rearrange their existing stats and skills, transfer them to each other, or even [i]give them his own skills[/i], adding an element of customization that other Golemancers lack. These skills are retained even when they leave the Golem Mechs.
