— ✝ —Character Sheet
Class: Ruler
True Name: Constantine the Great,
The Thirteenth Apostle: Holy Sword EmperorOrigin: Historical Fact
Height/Weight: 184cm/72kg
Alignment: Lawful Good
Personality: A paragon of Christendom who desires the salvation of all, friend or foe. A benevolent ruler whose goodwill surpasses his ambition. A warrior of strong conviction who fights for his beliefs. Acts somewhat as a guide for his allies, advising them not to stray from the light and serving as an exemplar for what he believes is right. As this form embodies the idea of Constantine being a saint, his nature as an ambitious emperor has been sealed. Actually a mama's boy, but he won't admit it.
Backstory: The first Roman Emperor to convert to Christianity, Constantine the Great brought a new age of prosperity to the dying empire. Guided by the will of God, Constantine managed to unify all of Rome under his rule before building a new capital in the colony of Byzantium, renaming it into Constantinople; the landmark for the new Byzantine Empire, which had prospered for over a millenia. A shining pillar of light who had built the holiest place in Christendom, it was through his countless contributions to Christianity that Constantine was named The Thirteenth Apostle, and that Christianity had become the greatest religion in the world.

— Class Skills —Magic Resistance EX: A shining star of Christendom, Constantine demonstrates phenomenal anti-magic capabilities. Simply put, Constantine is capable of averting all forms of "Pagan" Magecraft from himself through his steadfast sanctity. In other words, he is a saint incapable of being touched by Magecraft even from the Age of Gods. However, this skill is unable to cope with the sacraments of the Church.
True Name Discernment B: A privilege of the Ruler class, allowing the ability to learn a Servant's identity and abilities after merely observing them. During a direct encounter, a Servant's true name and entire status information will be automatically revealed. In regards to Servants capable of masking their identity or presence, a Luck check is performed.
God's Decision A: The highest privilege of the Ruler class, granting Command Spells- which are normally used by Masters- to command the Servants of a Holy Grail War. Grants the use of two Command Spells per Servant which uses are shared by those designated under the Ruler class. However, due to the nature surrounding Ruler's summoning, he can only use his Command Spells on Servants under his own allied camp.
— Personal Skills —Charisma B: A rare skill consisting of both personal charm as well as the natural talent to command or unify a nation or army. At this rank, one can lead a nation as its emperor. The morale of military forces lead by Constantine is extremely high. He has lead his own military forces to victory time and time again while remaining undefeated, and has obtained immense popularity in his life.
Imperial Communion EX: A skill unique to Constantine the Great and a mutation of the Imperial Privilege skill possessed those who would call themselves "Emperor". As the first Roman emperor to embrace Christianity as well as the builder of countless holy sights and collector of many holy relics, Constantine is capable of consecrating anything that is held by him. Through both his own insistence as well as his immense piety, all items that are wielded by Constantine can be raised to the rank of Holy Sacraments. It could be said that this skill stems partially from Constantine attempting to imitate the abilities of his mother, though he'll deny such claims outright when brought up and attempt to change the subject.
Revelation B: An ability to "hear the voice of heavens" and take optimum action; a Skill equivalent to Instinct, a sixth sense regarding battles. However, this skill accommodates all matters related to the achievement of a goal (for instance, choosing the most suitable path while traveling). As one who has received countless visions of foretold victory both from the Lord as well as the many gods and goddesses who adored him, Constantine has a naturally high rank in this skill. It is through these visions that lead Constantine to the land where he had built a new capital of Christendom: Constantinople.
Protection from Arrows A: The increased awareness and defense against ranged attacks. In Constantine's case, his helmet, which was made with one of the holy nails used for the crucifixion of Christ, was given the blessing of "protection from harm" by Saint Helena, Constantine's mother. As Constantine doesn't wear his helmet or armor, this blessing was moved to his belt through the use of his Imperial Communion skill. Because of the nature of this particular blessing, Constantine does not require visual confirmation in order to defend against ranged attacks. As long as the attack is a thrown type (such as arrows), even Noble Phantasms can be avoided. However, Constantine does not gain the effects of this protection if the projectile were to explode on impact, if the attack was performed in a matter where range would be considered a non-factor, or if it was performed by a weapon that has simply long reach, such as a spear.
— Armaments —Through the use of his Imperial Communion skill, Constantine is capable of utilizing the various blessings of the holy relics he has obtained in life, including his helmet and his bridle, although he is incapable of reproducing or otherwise using the properties of great Noble Phantasms, such as a particular spear. Constantine's main weapon is the
Chi-Rho, an ornate blade which status has been raised to that of a Holy Sword endowed with the blessing of "promising victory". Constantine's clothes have also been granted numerous blessings, allowing them to serve as armor suitable for combat.
— Noble Phantasm —Ecclesia Sancti SepulchriChurch of AnastasisRank: D (EX)
Type: Anti-Evil
Range: 30
Maximum Number of Targets: 300
A grand church commissioned by Constantine in the Old City of Jerusalem and built over two holy sites; Golgotha, where Christ was crucified, and the empty Tomb of Christ. Because of this, the church itself has become widely known as the holiest place in Christendom. Even in the modern day, it has been used as a sight of pilgrimage for Christians everywhere. As the holiest church containing two of the holiest locations and situated within the holiest of cities, it would not be an exaggeration to call this Noble Phantasm the greatest Christian church.
By planting his sword into the ground and offering a prayer to God, Constantine is able to reproduce the entirety of the church through magical energy through a method similar to another certain Roman emperor's golden theater. The recreation of the church is accomplished not through magecraft, but through Constantine's own immense piety. All those within the radius, enemies and allies, are also drawn into the Noble Phantasm once it is summoned. Those within the church feel as if they have stepped into the Kingdom of Heaven, with white marble floors, stained glass windows depicting the various miracles of Christ, and even a faint aria of angelic singing in the background. As a grand cathedral representing the grace of God, even the greatest of kings and heroes are humbled upon entry.
Because it is the greatest of churches, its beauty remains unrivaled, and it could be said that such beauty is closest to that of God's. Through observing such beauty and glory, Constantine himself is uplifted, granting him a boost to his parameters as well as an increase of power to the holy relics created by his Imperial Communion skill, elevating them to the power of Noble Phantasms; his clothes seeped with blessings become nearly impenetrable armor, his belt further protecting him from harm, and his blade granting him and his allies certain victory. To a man as righteous as Constantine, who is considered a Saint equal to the Twelve Apostles, merely beholding such beauty is a blessing (curse) to himself.
The church itself also contains two powerful miracles: First, because it is the place where Christ was crucified and later buried, it enforces the law of one's natural lifespan to all those within, preventing those from healing through unnatural means such as Dead Apostles. Second, because it is also the place where Christ was later resurrected, the Force of Providence of Constantine and his allied camp are increased, ignoring all other conditions that would lower or otherwise alter it. Because these two properties are "miracles of God" and are considered immeasurable, they are not displayed in the Noble Phantasm's true rank.
