  • Name: Charname Avilone
  • Age: 24
  • Gender: Female
  • Appearance: Beware the quiet ones. The glasses are, in fact, normal glasses… though given the nature of her employment, blocking mystic eyes also became a necessary backup.
  • Personality: Charname isn’t a terribly confident person in some regards, particularly not socially, but nor is she excessively shy. In the end, though, she would be happier in the stressful situations that most people avoid, where her skills and upbringing are of more use—rather than having to make conversation over things that simply don’t matter.
    Her opinion on maids is a conflicted one. On the one hand, she likes the look and would join Erika in appreciating them… on the other hand, she very much does not like being dressed as a maid and wishes she could have some more intimidating attire. This might explain why she stands up to her boss where she would silently accept other people.
  • Skills: Despite her employment, Charname lacks the abilities of a maid. Cleaning? An excellent way to get something broken or parts overlooked. Cooking? She can determine if your food has been tampered with but not actually cook something herself, in which case poison is the expected result. The real bulk of her skills are hand-to-hand skills, with a particular focus on knives as both useful where magecraft is concerned and simply for dealing with threats, but experience with other weapons as well. Quite unbecoming for a magus, she doesn’t scorn the use of firearms—depending on the situation, quite anything could be of use.
  • Abilities: Despite their lack of interest in the conceptual possibilities of magecraft, the Avilone have had through the generations a strong desire to perfect the practical use of such things for their own needs. For instance, their approach towards Bounded Fields is peculiar; rather than focus on grand defences and territory, it is one of “what is most useful on the individual scale”. For instance, what is the distinction between delineating inside and outside on clothing rather than buildings? Even in part, buildings will move, and that within them switch about. A narrow loophole that, through sheer pedantry, allowed for establishing bounded fields on their attire. In Charname’s case, this gives her deep pockets. Very deep pockets; every implement or weapon that she feels might be reasonably useful on her person, at once.
    Her preference for using knives follows a similar route, a brief field established by carving runes is an excellent emergency barrier, or trap. Of course, even the non-bounded field uses are useful… as are rune-based curses like Gandr.
    Given the amount of armament both physical and metaphysical that Charname carries, it should be no surprise that part of her contract—one not even necessarily stated to her owner—includes a particular geas: if she should need to give her life then it will be done, regardless of her possible thoughts on the matter. For this reason, self-sacrificial techniques are also within her abilities.
  • Brief Backstory: The Avilone family is one with no interest in reaching the Root, no grand history or lineage to draw on. They are a lineage who took one look at the wealthy, established magus families and came to the conclusion: the best way to prosper is to attach ourselves to them. Thus, for generations the main line has itself provided protection to the Maidandora and trained their heir as such. That which would not be of use in their chosen role and hangers-on to luxury was ignored.
    The demand that she be employed as a maid was quite the insult to Charname’s pride, even if there was no escaping the requirement.

Tyaethe Radistirin


Oh-ho, that was interesting, some sort of charge effect on the weapon? Was it something she could overpower? This was what she wanted, the Barukstaedian to put his full force in and find out that it still wasn't enough. Exciting and... well, the Vos Korvungaard were all long dead but it was still fun to relive parts of that battle. Not the cavalry charge, but the mopping up...

Unfortunately... well, for her, not for their overall goal, Maritza had returned to help, slamming into the man and locking him in place. That was what she got from playing with her food, though... maybe she should have finished him earlier. Regardless, recovering from her impromptu leap out of the way, Tyaethe adjusted her grasp on the sword to place her hand up the ricasso. If that armour was magic, it would be pointless to try and smash through it in a reasonable time and with him effectively held in place, she just needed to line it up and...

One thrust later, and the weighty sword was thrust through the exposed armpit and into his chest, ending any chance he had of fighting back... or surviving beyond the next few seconds.

"Is someone talking about vampires...?"
Oda Nobunaga


"Knowing the lay of the land is vitally important... why, know it well enough, and you can attack a force ten times your size and come out victorious!" the short archer cheerfully said... marching right out of the door and leaving Haru to catch up. She should probably check out the farmland first and see where might be a good place to attack from or... defend. Defend, probably, depending on what riders might be here. If Takeda showed up, then recreating Nagashino would definitely need a good scope of the land...

She could go explore the town later and try to get dinner off of Haru. That seemed like a good plan.
I just noticed that your title thingy is the Japanese name. xD
Kaguya-Hime


Having to pull back to avoid having her head cut off--it probably wouldn't kill her, even in this state, but it wasn't wise to try--meant that there was nothing much she could do about the man or his captive. Instead, it was her against... oh, this was interesting, very interesting. Were those bladeds coming from her arms?

"I think I might have to seek you and your Master out in future," the princess said, eyes lighting up. A fully-functional robot ninja? Well, that was just wonderful, the sort of thing she would love to collect, or to try and understand. It was just such a shame that said ninja was trying to slice and dice, and her unarmed abilities weren't amazing. Adequate, one might say, but not amazing.

Though the hesitancy in the ninja's actions gave a perfect opening, particularly with her agility not being so much better than the "alien's" own. She could have done it some other way, but this made it just that bit more likely and so much less effort for Kaguya: stepping in, past the blade and forcing the ninja's arm up, an interesting piece of raised metal and wood. Some sort of lightning rod, one could say.

For the exact bolt of lightning that the Caster had just caused.




Saotome Hana


"D-Don't I get a say in this?" Hana asked. Her servant, the other Servant, this guy... all this conspiring to get her to do things was why she spent so much time inside anyway. Watching TV was cheap and easy to do and so much more stress free. Now they wanted her to spend on games and everything...? What if she needed that money for something important! Like not working!
As I foresee that Tyaethe is probably going to need to say something in response to other people tackling Mr. Vampire there, I'll hold off on immediately responding. xD
  • Name: Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus, proud owner of a stupidly long name.
  • Class: Saber
  • Appearance: Still just letting you see.
  • Abilities:
    • Strength: D
    • Endurance: B
    • Agility: A
    • Mana: B
    • Luck: B
    • Noble Phantasm: -
  • Class Skills:
    • Magic Resistance: C. Despite being a Saber, Nero boast a pitifully low magic resistance due to her own lack of interaction with the art.
  • Personal Skills:
    • Divinity: A++ (D). With the family descent from Mars, and holding a direct descent back to the founding of the family tree through her mother, Nero holds a natural level of Divinity. However, through Imperial Privilege--and specifically the Imperial Cult, which holds the dead Emperors as deities and in places and parts held select Emperors as living gods, including Nero--she has achieved the highest possible level of Divinity. Not that this does terribly much, but it's good for her ego.
    • Imperial Privilege: EX. A function of Aestus Domus Aurea, Nero's insistence that a certain ability should be the providence of the Emperor can make this a reality for a period. Such insistence is the entire basis for her class, granting the Emperor a truly impressive grasp of swordsmanship for one that would never have needed to use it, and skills in the various fields of athletics the Romans entertained (including wrestling, even if you're a lion). Such insistence gives her a truly diverse skill set despite her lack of direct combat power, from Riding through to all aspects of leading, arranging, and planning a military campaign from the tactical to the strategic level. These skills also work on the less relevant civic level--legal matters, politics, architecture and city planning; the role of an Emperor is vast. Finally, Nero's belief in her own artistic talent can be fully vindicated through the expression of this skill, although given her lack of taste...
      Only in two regards does this give Nero an ability that could be considered 'supernatural': augmenting the Divinity so attributed to the Emperor, and a link to the Emperor's role as Pontifex Maximus in the guise of casting and reading various auguries. Why would an Emperor possess some power not of this world, save for the gods' favour?
    • Invictus Spiritus: A. A skill born from an anecdote where, three days after her death, a servant thought to cover her body--only for the apparently-deceased emperor to open her eyes and thank him. It is further born from the possibility of a wraith born of her resentment still lingering long after her demise...
      Similar in nature to Battle Continuation, only rather than allowing for her Nero to continue fighting after receiving a fatal wound, it instead means not dying when fatally wounded--at least, not for a much longer period than a Servant should be able to hold on despite the severity. At this rank, stubbornness alone is enough to force survival for several days in spirit form regardless of injury--although on her own, she could never recover from this state.
    • Migraine: B. The greatest limitation on Nero's exercise of her considerable talents is, of course, the frequent recurring migraines. At least her ability to swing a sword is undiminished.
  • Noble Phantasms:
    • Aestus Domus Aurea. Type: Reality Marble. The manifestation of the Emperor's unyielding belief in her own abilities and ego, even in the face of an uncooperative Senate, a coup, and even her own madness. It takes the form of the theatre that at once expresses the combination of her civic abilities in rebuilding from the fire, architectural skill, and a venue for her artistic ambitions. Passively, it grants her the ability to access skills she never learned or at a level superior to her life (see above) and justifies her position as the strongest class of Servant.
      Activated, the world created is a perfect venue for whatever the Emperor might desire--cooking or arts, gladiatorial combat or simply fighting. In the face of the Emperor's magnificence, enemies' statistics are ranked down, progressively getting more severe if the theatre is maintained for long enough, such that none may outshine the theatre's star. And of course, Nero herself is strengthened--the environment of her theatre is always going to match her desires, and within its confines the truly theatrical like a flaming sword and roses are all but guaranteed.
  • Personality: There are several words that can be used to describe Nero's attitude, but inevitably it all comes round to the obvious: if there's anyone in the world that can possibly compete with her by ego alone, then it's the King of Heroes, followed shortly thereafter by the King of Conquerors. She assumes, from the start, that she is the greatest of artists, able to rival the very gods themselves, and that everything she does must be perfect. To that end, she puts a truly vast amount of passion into everything that she does--a passion that she expects to be reciprocated, even if her subjects cannot possibly match it or understand the art produced.
    Her driving desire, besides art, is beauty (and for some reason, competing with Heracles. Given that she's a short girl, wrestling a lion might be impressive but it's a long way off), and it doesn't matter if you're male or female to that end in getting her interest. Because of this, she has little direct interest in wealth or treasure--but the trappings of it greatly appeal to her interests.
    Despite her general attitude being upbeat, she's quite easily angered by criticising her art or refusing to experience it, believing that it is something to be admired and praised even if beyond your comprehension. On the flip side, flattering her is an easy way to get into Nero's good graces and manipulate her.
