Reflection

Fate/Grand Order RP

@WanderingDragon
I want you to reread what I said. You can pick a canon servant. The Gatcha exists as a random idea generator for people who don't know what they want to make.
And I want to rephrase myself for one bit. You are allowed to make a servant and a master, but you can't have multiples of both.

Fate/Grand Order RP

@SSW
Alright, you rolled a 1.
Taksin (Berserker) - King of Siam. Went insane. Was a powerful general, a hero of chaos who brought his kingdom to peace after destroying an army. Despite his low birth, he was a great hero, who was friends with the person who would later pass him as king. He was the only king of his dynasty.

@Rondo of Blood
You rolled a 19.
Wright Brothers (Rider) - American Inventors and the fathers of flight. They are no doubt weak servants, but can create a rather powerful machine to match anything of other servants if given time. Mostly based around aerial combat, they are inventors at heart. And there are two of them, so that's double the power.

If you have questions, or want a GM to toss ideas around with, let me know.

Fate/Grand Order RP

@WanderingDragon
1- You can choose your own servant. As mentioned in the Gatcha, it's totally optional. The main appeal is for people who don't know who or what they'd want to play, so they're basically asking for a random idea.
2- It is optional to do so. Yes. There are only four masters, and eight servants. You can make a servant but not a master, or a master but not a servant. But you're only allowed to make one of each. So you can't have two servants, or two masters.
3- You don't need to know too much about the franchise to get involved. General rule is "Bad guys are messing with history, so mages summon famous people to fight the bad guys."

@SSW
It's an optional way to get a random servant idea tossed at you. We have Twenty-One random ideas from various mythologies/histories. If you decide you don't like the idea presented, you can request a reroll or just make your own. You are not obligated to use one. It's just for people who might not know what they want to make.

Say for example you want to roll an idea. We'll spin a wheel, and then send you the name, possible classes, and a brief summary of a character.

Ex:
Pocahontas (Rider/Caster) - Princess of the Powhatan's chieftain. She married an Englishman, and acted as a speaker on behalf of her people to protect their culture from the English. Her story has been romanticized over the years, and she is a subject of art, literature, and film. Her true name is supposedly Matoax, which was carefully concealed from the British because knowing her true name would enable them to cast harm upon her.

Giving you a basis to create a character sheet around the identity, and a little blurb for a possible noble phantasm.

Fate/Grand Order RP

_{"With the passing of the Age of Gods and the start of the Common Era, Mankind has become the most prosperous species in the world. The fate of the planet is in our hands. We are the ones who will write its epitaph. Thankfully, there is a map to prolong mankind's survival and ensure its everlasting prosperity.
In the world of magi, this is known as... the Human Order."}

Welcome to Chaldea. You are the best of the best. At least that what we’re telling you. But we’re just thankful you’re here at all. Chaldea exist as an observation facility primarily. But since the founding of our organization we have found the odd moment in human history that is a blemish. A point that exists to mangle our timeline, and send humanity off its course. These are better known as Singularities.

To combat each Singularity, a team of four mages are gathered, and then sent into the field. Summoning Heroic spirits in the process. Chances are you have had time to talk with your servant from a prior summoning, or perhaps the servant summoned in done on the field. It’s your choice.

Consider this your mission briefing in that regard. The facility has been in need of fresh blood for a while. You’re it.

Your first point is a small singularity in Fuyuki. Something about things going off path. Anyway, small squabbles like this happen all the time. Show up, find who or what went wrong, and set it right. Time will set itself right when that’s done.

Are you ready? Don’t respond, we’re sending you there now.

Rules
1 - Don’t Godmod
2 - Be a decent person. If you have a problem with another player, you are invited to tell a GM. We’ll do what we can.
3 - There will be only four Master slots. But Eight Servant slots. Each Master can provide mana for two servants at a time.
4 - If a servant dies, the player is allowed to perform a re-roll. If a Master dies (Which is less likely) they are not allowed to re-roll until the end of a Singularity. If a Master quits, another player is allowed to take over the character, and replace them when the Singularity ends.

Servant Gatcha:
While likely unnecessary, the mods have elected to include a Gatcha system. We have made up a list of Servants/Classes, and if interested you can ask to roll the Gatcha. One of the 20 options will be rolled up, and you will be allowed to roll again, or go with that idea. (Or decide to do something else entirely.) It’s for those who have an interest in random chance.

Character Sheets

Servant Sheet

Name:

Title(s):

Class: I have listed all options for your convenience; The Knight Classes(Saber, Archer, Lancer) and the Cavalry Classes- (Rider, Assassin, Caster, Berserker)

Gender: Obvious

Attribute: This will be given to you upon approval.

Era: The time they were alive during. This may be the Age of Gods(Before Christs birth) or the Age of Man(After Christs birth) You may put precise birth and death dates as well.

Alignment: Lawful Good, Lawful Neutral, Lawful Evil, Neutral Good, True Neutral, Neutral Evil, Chaotic Good, Chaotic Neutral, Chaotic Evil, Chaotic Mad, Runaway Mad Enchancement

Personality: Feel free to fill in as you please. Make sure to include why they answered the summons of the Holy Grail- what wish do they desire?

Character Objectives: What your Servant wishes to accomplish within the Holy Grail War. You should list one or two primary objectives, then several secondary objectives they may accomplish. Examples include vanquishing evil(primary), or enjoying the modern world(secondary). These objectives should not include your characters wish, or achieving victory within the Grail War in itself. Finally add a few meta objectives you have for this Servant. Where do you want to see them go? What do you wish to see them accomplish? Send this part over Private Messages to the GM(s). Completing your objectives will have positive consequences.

Appearance: This is what your character looks like; describe armor in Noble Phantasm's if it's special. Unless stated otherwise pictures will be what your character looks like, exactly. If you have a picture delete this section and throw it at the top of the sheet.

Bio: Heroic Spirit's biography. If you're too lazy to write one use Wikipedia or another website for this, but this is your Servant's legend. Any changes to their characterization should be covered in this(King Arthur as a girl). For Servants, this is a relatively unimportant section.

Weapon: Some Servants may use non Noble Phantasm weapons in combat. Usually this should only be one or two things as appropriate.

Parameters:

Strength: Damage. A rank STR means one attack can destroy a small house.

Endurance: Damage one can take. How much HP one has.

Agility: Dexterity or reaction time.

Mana: How much Prana one can handle.

Luck: Ability to defy fate.

Class Skills: For all skills. Please do not just put name and rank. Give an explanation of what it does. Your class skills are listed by class elsewhere. Use anecdotes, feats, and themes to gauge where this should be. Please remember that class skills are specific to class. Fate/Grand Orders system for class skills will not be used here. Reference the opening post for listed class skills if you do not know them.

Personal Skills: Certain abilities a Heroic Spirit may have, such as Charisma, Artistic Talent, etc. Keep close to the legend. Three maximum. Exceptional circumstances may bend this rule, however Personal Skills exist to create a themed servant so keep that in mind.

Noble Phantasm: Limit two. Exceptional circumstances may bend this rule, however Noble Phantasms exist to create a themed servant so keep that in mind.

Name:

Title: Kanji name. Usually an explanation like "Sword of Promised Victory."

Rank: E-EX. Plus modifiers are possible

NP Type:

Range: 1 is minimum, 99 is maximum. Format is usually something like 2-50, that's Via Expugnatio and Bellerophon's range. That means Via Expugnatio cannot attack you if your range is 1 from it.

Maximum Number of Targets: 1 to 1000. The format is usually a single number. This may get weird depending on your classification.

Description: What does it do? A paragraph for fluff and a paragraph for what it "does" is usually best. However I will trust you in the formatting. Try to be somewhat original here- Iskander is a really cool guy, so don't make Iskander 2, no one can do that.

Master Sheet

Name:

Title(s):

Appearance: (This is what your character looks like; a picture up top is also acceptable.)

Gender: (Duh.)

Age: (How old is your character? The maximum age for a non-distorted magus is probably around 200 years. Characters above 250 will not be accepted.)

Alignment: (Lawful Good, Lawful Neutral, Lawful Evil, Neutral Good, True Neutral, Neutral Evil, Chaotic Good, Chaotic Neutral, Chaotic Evil)

Rank: (Your capability as a Magus in the eyes of the Mages Association. This will be given to you on approval.)

Objective for the Grail: (What is your wish?)

Character Objectives: What your Masters wishes to accomplish within the Holy Grail War. You should list one or two primary objectives, then several secondary objectives they may accomplish. Examples include recovering magic crests(primary), or enjoying the company of a legendary hero(secondary). These objectives should not include your characters wish itself, or achieving victory in the war. Finally add a few meta objectives you have for this Master. Where do you want to see them go? What do you wish to see them accomplish? Send this part over Private Messages to the GM(s). Completing your objectives will have positive consequences.

Command Seal: (What will it look like when you summon your servant? Optional. Pictures are acceptable, just spoiler them.)

Personality: (A paragraph or so suffices. We want to leave room for development!)

Bio: (A few sentances, just a basic ideal. Include information on the family you're descended from. The more information on the family, the more its detailed, the more its coherent, the more justifiable having, say, an above average Magus is)

---

Magic Circuit Switch: (What activates your magic circuit. For example, Tohsaka Rin activates hers through the sound of stabbing herself in her heart. Emotions and feelings such as pain or sexual arousal also work. Optional, as it's fluff for your character.)

Number of Magic Circuits: Number of circuits. Ranked A-E.

Quality of Magic Circuits: Amount of magical energy one circuit can safely hold. Ranked A-E. Modifiers may be requested, but don't include them on your initial sheet.

---

Elemental Affinity: (Average one's are acceptable, as well as dual elements. Valid elements are Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, Ether. Valid elements may shift with the culture of your magical foundation(ie Chinese Elements). Special elements beyond these are acceptable, but are under scrutiny. Additionally, you can list your Origin here if you want to bother with it.)

Magecraft: (Include all schools of magecraft you know, including General Magecraft(Things students at Clocktower would know). We assume they do not know the basics unless the basics are included as an example. If its not mentioned here it's assumed that particular type of magecraft is not something within their capabilities. Do not apply individual spells, but you can use them as examples.)

Crest: (Rough age of the crest, thus family. The magecraft within the crest is assumed to be in your magecraft section. List by generation; 40 years is assumed to be a generation in this case.)

Weapon: (Mystic codes, other weapons, etc. Any magus should have a few mystic codes, average for this sort of situation will be considered around 3. This may shift depending on your Magus, though.)

Class and class skills

Currently only the seven standard classes will be allowed at this time.

Knight Classes

Knight of the sword, Saber.
Magic Resistance
Ability of resistance to magery. Generally speaking, it cancels magic of a certain rank and below. At rank B and over, the Servant won't be hurt even by high magery, ritual mantras, and other elaborate magery.
Riding
Ability to ride things. A Servant with this at rank A can ride even mythical beasts and divine beasts. However, in order to ride dragon types, a different ability than Riding is necessary.

Knight of the lance, Lancer.
Magic Resistance
Ability of resistance to magery. Generally speaking, it cancels magic of a certain rank and below. At rank B and over, the Servant won't be hurt even by high magery, ritual mantras, and other elaborate magery.

Knight of the bow, Archer.
Independent Action
Enables action even if the Master dies or if the contract with the Master is terminated. It is possible to stay in the world for one day at rank C, and 2 days at rank B. At rank A, the Servant can continue existing even without the Master.
Magic Resistance
Ability of resistance to magery. Generally speaking, it cancels magic of a certain rank and below. At rank B and over, the Servant won't be hurt even by high magery, ritual mantras, and other elaborate magery.

Cavalry Classes

Mounted soldier, Rider.
Riding
Ability to ride things. A Servant with this at rank A can ride even mythical beasts and divine beasts. However, in order to ride dragon types, a different ability than Riding is necessary.
Magic Resistance
Ability of resistance to magery. Generally speaking, it cancels magic of a certain rank and below. At rank B and over, the Servant won't be hurt even by high magery, ritual mantras, and other elaborate magery.

Magus, Caster.
Item Construction
Ability to create weapons having magic power. As one of the main uses of this, there is the creation of Mystic Codes.
Territory Creation
Ability to create a territory advantageous to oneself as a magus. The workshops of common magi are also included in as territories, but at rank A, it is possible to create a temple class territory exceeding that of a workshop.

Silent killer, Assassin.
Presence Concealment
Ability to cut off one's presence as a Servant. It is possible to hide oneself from enemy Servants.

Mad warrior, Berserker.
Mad Enhancement
Ability to increase the rank of each status in exchange for sanity. For each rank increase in Mad Enhance, the number of types of boosted parameters increase.

Magus Ranks

A rough measure of your talent as a magus by the Mages Association. This does not necessarily reflect your circuits, though having good ones will make being a powerful magus easier. Ranks can be inflated by prestige or politics rather than talent however. An example of a magus of this caliber is next to each Rank. Rank will be assigned by the GMs around the time of approval.

Grand: Crown (Touko Aozaki)
Only a handful of Magi in the existence of the Association have ever reached this point. This is the height of Magecraft in the modern era, a level even the Lords of Clocktower are unlikely to reach. Put simply, monsters in the form of humans.

Brand: Color (Kayneth El-Melloi Archibald)
The level of a talented Lord of Clocktower. A true prodigy is at this rank, someone who can revolutionize an entire field of magecraft just by existing. Around the absolute limit of someone like say, Rin Tohsaka. Those truly at the level of Brand in the Clocktower probably number in the couple hundred at most in its entire history.

Pride: Law (Nigel Sayward)
Exceptional Magus. Only a handful of Magi in a families entire history may exist at this rank. In fact a family is quite lucky to have such a great magus as their head at all. The difference between "Pride" and "Brand" is like the difference between the Heavens and the Earth below it.

Fes: Festival (Norikata Emiya)
A magus who has broken through the barrier that is 'my craft has matured and stabilized' and gotten past that important roadblock. A Fes is nothing to scoff at, if they received the rank from actual talent. In the history of their family, they will definitely be a noteworthy family head.

Cause: Open (Protagonist F/GO)
A magus who has fully stabilized their magecraft and its foundation. While this could be considered average, it is genuinely a feat to reach this point at all. Someone at this level is a "matured magus".

Count: Eldest Child (Kiritsugu)
Someone who uses magecraft at a level above a greenhorn, but has yet to stabilize their craft properly.

Frame: Youngest Child (Ayaka Sajyou)
Someone totally new to magecraft. A bit above the likes of Emiya Shirou, who can barely practice magecraft. At this level it's probably more about theory then actual magecraft.

Character limitations

Servants

Servant Ban List
Heracles(Off Berserker), Gilgamesh, Nursery Rhyme, Ozymandias, joke Servants, or funny business Servants. Additionally, no Servant that would qualify for 'Grand' will be accepted at this time. Certain sheets or aspects of sheets may not be allowed for power balancing, though I expect this to be a rare occurrence. Double summon is inapplicable.
Eastern Servants and Counter Heroes are allowed.

All Servants must be historic or mythological figures who were born before 1970AD. Figures before Gilgamesh are banned. Additionally, Gods and such are not applicable. Humans, mixed bloods, machines, and animals qualify as Servants. Try to avoid composite skills where able.

Masters

Masters may not be able to fight a Servant defensively.
Masters will not be ranked higher than Fes for the time being.

"Let's take these people with us and get to work. I want that cup."

Straight to the point. Such a strange man, or perhaps boy. But that was good. It made it clear just what the relationship between Master and Servant would be. He was an anchor. Good. That way when Caster was put to death for his grail wish, it would be all the easier. Gesturing to his snowdoll, Vladimir made it more than clear that he like his servant was impatient.

And nothing made one more fitful than sitting in a plane ride for hours. His brief time to prepare his stuff was more than enough to pick up just who he summoned. A man without love. Well, he'd know more about him in time, or perhaps not. Arrival at the base was more than thankful, as it meant he could put his mind to setting up his workshop, rather than other such things.

Saber

My Boyfriend is the Holy Roman Emperor

"A Saber? And one of the Holy Church? It seems that you've struck gold indeed Master of Saber. But Miss Saber I must suggest you control yourself. Surely you know by the nature of your summoning that these people are as knight brothers, and sister to you. God doesn't look kindly on the murder of the innocent just as he looks down on killing one's family. Or did you not read the story of Abel, and Cain? Still it is nice to meet your acquaintance as a member of the church, and fervent believer of the holy spirit. Though I do suggest you do not start conflict with some of the others here. Clearly they are from a time less blessed by the savior."

"Oh dear member of the church, you seem to be mistaken." There was nothing but a sweet smile on Saber's lips in response to his overblown speech. "Cain was punished for believing his murder was justified against Christian blood. His spilling of blood was needless and unjustified. Mine though? Totally justified." The way she said that was like it was a revelation. But that was probably a result of her skill. Incitement. Anything she said may as well have been a mental attack designed to make others agree with her. With that though, she was already wandering off, and then...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
She stepped off the plane, and then stood with the rest of the crowd in front of the church. She had collected nearly a hundred plus outfits from the stores during their 'supply run.' Her master's debt rising, but it was necessary. She had to be absolutely beautiful if her lord was to love her properly.

An entire paragraph could be spent describing her short shorts, or the over-sized straw-hat, or just about anything. But that's a waste of time. Just imagine it as something really mis-matched, and for the wrong climate. It must have been a jolt if one was aware that this was an Archbishop.

"Um... You're a priest right?" Saber said, looking to Father Howard with a slight huff. "Right, so you're going to invite me into the upper floors. As an Archbishop, I outrank you." It may have been a major surprise to realize the most poorly dressed individual in the crowd was a holy god-fearing bishop. "Also, I'll be going over each of your holy documents to update them for any inaccuracies that might have occurred through translation over the years. I understand that god's word can be easily misunderstood. In particular there is something I heard on the news about God hating fags. Clearly a horrible typo. The original was very clear about it being figs."

With that said, she stepped forward and scooped Father Howard up in a bridal carry. Taking him away as she marched right into the church, leaving the group behind to discuss what had just happened.

"What an odd Saber you have summoned." Vladimir said. "I hope she is as strong as she is strange."

His glorious blade snicker-snapped through the air. His blitz unstopped, and his wild fury echoing through the air. The mind of a berserker, especially one like Roland's was an enigma. A screaming windstorm that may as well have been running on the most primal of mankind's instincts. After all, when all that could tie him to his humanity is his sword, what can stop him?

As Honda rolled to the side, his overhead swing continued on. The grip of the sword spinning in Roland's hand, as he impaled the ground where his target had been standing nano-seconds earlier. The holy blade sunk into the earth, piercing it like butter as the madman held on tight. And he kept moving. A tiny hop was more than enough for him to clear the sweep of the Lancer's spear, momentum carrying him past his sword. But still holding it tight, he let that momentum carry him in a circle. As if he was poledancing around the handle.

Poledancing in such a way that all the power from his charge carried into a kick. A kick aimed squarely at Honda's skull. A blow that would rip through his armor and splatter the insides of his skull all over the ground. Which he might have been able to avoid if his plan to push off with his spear worked.

It didn't. Because when Honda's attack missed Roland's ankles, that wide initial sweep continued until it hit something. That something was Durandal. The sword struck hard into the ground, and due to it's nature as an unwavering sword of peerless power, it was not cut. The impact was sure to jolt the hero of the era, breaking his own momentum for the priceless moment in time he would have needed.

Instead, Roland played kickball with Honda's skull. If not that, then the mere motion of air pressure from his strike should slam against Lancer with all the grace of a baby elephant fired from a cannon.

"I kinda wanna give this to my sister. You think she'll be less angry if I gave her a picture made in blood?" It was a strange question. But Chieko couldn't be more serious as she looked at one of several paintings she had repossessed from the home/studio of the now deceased master of Lancer. It was actually pretty tragic, since while the value of each piece had risen substantially, there wasn't anybody to sell it to. At least not right now at least... When the war was over sure, but it wouldn't help her in the short run.

"But to be honest, Nobukara, art appreciation isn't why I called you here." Chieko explained. Placing the portrait down, and brushing the frame lightly for luck. "It's because I was checking the supplies and I noticed something. Each of these paints are made with blood. Nothing bad on its own... But he labeled each case." Slipping a hand into her robe, the shrine maiden pulled out one particular vial of note. On it was the writing of the formerly living mage, Hemlock Reguim. "This one in particular stood out to me. read the label." Passing it over, she turned the front to Nobukara.

'Old Man SERIAL KILLER!?'

"Whatever he discovered, he died before he could investigate it further. I doubt the man involved in his death was too deeply involved beyond the grail war, but I think he might have been onto something." Chieko said, taking the vial back as quickly as she could to keep it close. "Weird stuff is going on in this war. And not just weird stuff like 'Ha this man died' kinda weird. There are more than seven servants. That alone should be impossible judging from the ritual's information. We've had servants and masters dropping dead all war, and who even knows where the grail is going to materialize? I suspect it's not just a grail war that's going down in Paris." There was a scoff on her lips as she spoke.

"Anyway, I need you around tonight because I'm going to be performing a ritual. At least two mages, and we need somebody to protect us while we devote our attention to it. Of course I have Yojimbo, but... I feel better having you and Archer around, okay?"

While most had begun to bicker, or perhaps already show their distaste with the current proceedings, Vladimir had zoned it all out. If not for the grip of his assistant on his shoulder, he might have left the room altogether. His disgust with other human beings was clear on his face, especially as the defenses were explained to them. A defense system that would require him working with others directly? He was an alchemist, not a man who cared about illusions! He had dabbled in them, but it was mostly on the regular folk when he had been acting in steed of his ancestor.

Adjusting his coat, he stood, and walked with the others. If he was in the mood for curses he might have had a few in mind, but he didn't act on them. After all, he needed his karma high if he planned to ever finish his research. The ring in his hand flittered between fingers, and a hiss on his lips as he saw the summoning circle in question. It was certainly of a quality required, and no doubt adjusted in advance for several mages to use it together when summoning their servants. No doubt they would deny him the chance to summon in a private room, but he doubted the subject of his servant's name would ever need to arise. That was if his catalyst was any use.

He took a scarf from around his neck, and folded it tightly together. Placing it on the ground first, he put his catalyst on top. So that it wouldn't be dirtied by the ground. Just in case he needed to use it later or something. He turned to his assistant, and nodded at her. She nodded back, and stepped further from the circle. If desired, he could very well have used his blood, or perhaps his associate as a catalyst to summon his ancestor. But despite his power... He wasn't sure it was wise to summon a demon to war like that. And his heart wouldn't take the dishonor if they were to die. No, best to summon another hero.

"Let silver and steel be the essence. Let stone, and the archduke of contracts be the foundation..." And so began the ritual. His servant slowly forming in the air before him. Praying... That it would be somebody with an answer to his problem.

My Boyfriend is the Holy Roman Emperor

She was no rider. But she came to conquer, and that meant her horse did too. The clatter of hooves no doubt drew attention, as upon a white stallion... SABER APPEARED! Dressed in the armor of war, a sword held aloft in such a way that she was stabbing the chandelier. Whoever Kaybernett had just summoned was... Wild at the very least. The clippity clop of hooves filled the air, as the stallion began to walk around the room, carrying its rider upon its back.
"My goodness, the world has certainly changed!" She declared as a grin like the Cheshire cat crept over her lips. "This is good. Very good. If I bring him glory here, than for sure he will be without hesitation in the praise!" She swooned, as if ignoring all the people around her. "Oh, I know just what he'll say. He'll stand before an audience, brush his hair to the side and declare in no short words 'this is truly my most trusted of God's helpers! Her pure maiden heart has slain the evils of another time, and has carried back to me the Holy GRAIL!" Her blade swung through the air, and decapitated a nearby statue with ease.
Only as it fell to the ground and shattered did her sense of space come back.

"Oh, sorry there! Are you all okay? I hope I didn't startle any of you. Unless you're all heathens who don't believe in the love of god. Then I'd have to kill each and every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ. Though I guess the pope wouldn't approve... He never did approve of my more liberal approach to worship. That's why I stopped answering his letters."

His run was unimpeded. Good. There was nothing Honda could have done at that range to really slow him down anyway. He was like a runaway freight train, and yet he didn't need to slow down at all. Because at that moment, what lay between him and his retreating enemy, was a building. A BUILDING THAT WAS SIDING WITH A SARACEN! With all the subtle grace of a Boeing 737, he crashed through the front doors of "Tim and Eric's Accounting firm." Thankfully, both Tim, Eric, and their secretary were at a noodle shop three blocks down celebrating that they finally managed to turn a profit, and nobody was around when a crazed blonde man tore through their glass doors. The rest of the building was a mostly straight hallway with a backdoor at the far end, so Roland just blitzed through and smashed through that. Leaving two broken doors, and a mangled desk that had been in his way.

This shortcut meant one thing in particular. As Honda was touching the ground, Roland was blasting his way through the emergency exit. A steel door spinning through the air, unintentionally aimed towards Honda's exposed backside as he retreated. Even a moment's hesitation from Honda would allow the blitzkrieg'ing Berserker to close that gap. "IT'S ME!" Roland roared, as his makeshift projectile door was baring down to rip Honda in half.

Sword in hand, Roland's attack began. The glorious blade Durandal began to hack back and forth. Each attack a pinpoint strike, as the air seemed to explode around him with each snap of the blade. A barrage of blows, each building on the last in a way a wild instinct might. A primal instinct. If for a moment Honda slowed, the blade would surely slice through an unguarded limb, or simply batter him till his bones broke.

Night came... And his sanity was still out of reach. Unable to return to his love until he had his prize. A Saracen's remains to drag before the one he loves. As such, he returned to that Foreign district, wondering just where his tree had gone. Maybe the tree alone might be enough to appease her long enough for him to find the greater trophy? But, despite having the skills of a homing pidgeon, he just couldn't find the tree. Perhaps if Ogier had joined him that night? Whatever the case, he walked around, eyes narrowed as they flashed from building to building, and lamppost to lamppost. And nothing. And then...

"I AM GENERAL HONDA TADAKATSU, THE SAMURAI AMONG SAMURAI, THE WARRIOR WHO SURPASSED DEATH, AND ONE OF TOKUGAWA'S FOUR HEAVENLY KINGS! BE YOU POTENTIAL FRIEND OR FOE I URGE YOU, COME TO MY VOICE! WE SEEK ALLIES IN THIS WAR! HOWEVER, IF YOU WISH TO TEST YOUR BLADE AGAINST MINE I SHALL HAPPILY OBLIGE!"

@ItMeGritty

Certain declarations can make their way all across a district. Especially when done in such a way that they seem designed to draw as much attention as possible. Particularly when one declares themselves a 'Heavenly King.' To one person in particular there was only one Heavenly King. His Uncle. The king Charlemagne. The GREAT HOLY KING CHARLEMAGNE! Only one kind of person would make such a deceleration. Only one kind of individual would declare themselves a Heavenly King beyond that of the Holiest king in all the world! A stupid person S A R A C E N!

Before he even approached this Saracen, his clothing was gone. Evaporating around his body into a display of sparkles. He wouldn't need it. He was too mad to need armor for this. His eyes narrowed into fine points, and he ripped a streetlamp from the ground. He followed the sound of the voice, eyes narrowing like hawks into the distance. The offender wasn't hard to find, as he presented himself like a massive target ontop the edge of a building. Like a spear he held it, and then he released. The lights and fixtures where ripped off by the force of a single throw, as suddenly from just out the corner of Honda Tadakatsu's eye, he'd see a makeshift spear of metal baring down upon him like a cannon shell. Though probably faster than a cannon would, and probably a bit more lethal.

Whether or not the man managed to survive the strike, Berserker was already charging toward the man's location. His feet hammering at the ground, eyes mad with fury, hair wild with frenzy, and carrying in one hand a sword, and in the otherm another street lamp ripped from its post. Which was then thrown with equal fury after the first. Bombarding Honda from a range before they were even close enough to trade sword blows.
