Fate/Scarlet Babylon

Warning: Great Evil contained within

• Name: Su Daji
• Class: Caster
• Appearance: Her tails are more cosmetic than expected

• Personality:
  A charming, polite woman who also happens to be one of the most vile monsters to have ever lived, Daji takes great pleasure in the pain and suffering of humans, taking it upon herself to inflict gruesome experiments or tortures upon anyone that annoys her, or simply piques her curiosity. Sparing no thought for the well-being of another, she is an utterly depraved, selfish monster.
  
  Anyone foolish or unlucky enough to summon Daji will most likely meet with a terrible fate. Not because of a specific curse, but simply because it is in Daji's nature to ruin another's life. Tempting them to a life of greed and lust, she will corrupt their mind and blacken their hearts, until eventually they are isolated and despised, condemned to death by virtue of their inhumane actions. And Daji will move on, repeating this cycle for as long as she exists. Indeed, her wish for the grail is to be given the opportunity to repeat this very cycle, free of the constraints of the holy grail, as well as her origin.
  
  While Daji sees herself as a cunning ruler, merely playing with flimsy, fragile toys, it's probably not much of a surprise that she is lacking in courage and integrity. She is confident in her planning and intellect, but quite prone to panic once she senses her expertly-laid plans unravelling, and sees little point in keeping promises with anyone 'below her station'. Or even above, really.

• Stats:
  Strength: E
  Endurance: E
  Agility: B
  Mana: A
  Luck: C
  Noble Phantasm: C

• Class Skills:
  Item Construction: B – Daji specialises in devices and tools meant solely for torture and inhumane experimentation. This skill also fuels her Noble Phantasm.
  Territory Creation: B – Daji's workshop is designed for the sole purpose of harvesting mana from her victims via torture.

• Personal Skills:
  Mad Enhancement: E – Although Daji was not human, her actions were heinous enough that even other creatures considered her a deranged monster. Daji does not gain any boosts from this Rank, and only exists to denote her inability to reform her twisted ways.
  Torture Techniques: A+ - Daji's imagination was boundless when it came to making humans suffer indignities and agony. Tools of torture inflict additional damage in combat.
  Shapeshift: A – Daji is capable of effortlessly altering her appearance. Out of habit, she most often retains a human form.
  Calamitous Spirit: A - Any group, cause, nation or gathering that Daji aligns herself with will be doomed to ruin eventually, as long as she still lives.

• Noble Phantasm(s):
• Name: Vixen's Ingenuity: The Cruelty of Su Daji
  Rank: C
  Type: Anti-Unit
  Appearance: A massive, steel furnace formed around the target, with a viewing window on the 'gate. The floor within is replaced with oiled cylinders with burning charcoal beneath those.
  Effects: The construct is formed around the targeted Servant, trapping them inside should they fail to evade. Once inside, the charcoal will burn and the cylinders will begin to rotate, quickly heating the person inside, while robbing them of solid footing, and with little space to even turn around. The target will slowly be burned alive as Daji watches, and escape is virtually impossible from the inside. Outside forces can still break the contraption however, and Daji can at least turn off the flames if necessary.

• Name: Vixen's Entertainment: The Depravity of Su Daji
  Rank: C
  Type: Anti-Army
  Appearance: Dependant on location
  Effects: Within a territory claimed by Daji, this allows her to convert the surrounding location into a dangerous death trap; converting simple rooms into concealed pit traps, walls lined with poisoned darts, doors requiring a sacrifice of blood, it is at it's most effective as a defensive NP to protect her territory. It can be applied outside of her territory, but the effects are much simpler; creating uneven footing in the ground, or priming nearby trees to collapse and such.

• Alignment: Chaotic Evil

• Changes: This Daji isn't the same fox tied to Tamamo-no-Mae and Amaterasu, but something closer to a personification of her story in isolation - A shadow of the real Heroic Spirit. She has no divine connection, nor the memories of her contemporaries. She is just an evil beast elevated by mere chance and extreme bad luck, on part of the world.

Magilou

The witch watched in silent awe as Hibiki somehow managed to activate the strange map, and... a series of moving images displayed. Was this a lingering memory? No, this wasn't the Earthpulse, or anything of the sort, was it? And this didn't feel like they were watching someone's memories... Magilou wasn't sure how exactly to describe what they were watching. But it felt... targeted. As if these images were compiled purely to motivate the viewer into a specific course of action.

So some strange soldiers/adventurers/whoever were fighting daemons, perhaps to try and save the distressed little girl?

"...That was weird..." Bienfu commented with a troubled frown, "what're we gonna do, Magilou? Should we mayb- they're already gone?!"

Indeed, the other three had already decided to go help this girl. Hibiki especially seemed eager to help. Magilou didn't consider herself to be so righteous as to immediately launch herself into danger to help this stranger, especially in such inexplicable circumstances. In fact, what was to prevent her from returning to that door and continuing her own wandering back in Desolation?

And yet, Magilou was following the rest of her new group, hands behind her head as she strolled casually along. Really, she couldn't say it was for the sake of that girl especially. For all she knew, that girl was long dead, turned into a daemon, or this was all a needlessly elaborate trap to begin with.

But it would make a hell of a tale to tell, on the off-chance she saw all of them again.

Fate/Eternum

Kishinami Hakuno

Hakuno was silent at Kiara's words, not wanting to pry any further. It sounded like Mary was having some difficulties even before this incident. She would love to help, but intruding on private matters was far over-reaching her position. All she could do was track down the rogue Servant and arrest them. Well, more like point Saber in said rogue's direction so she could do the arresting, but hey, Hakuno could wear the armband.

The young enforcer smiled at the kind woman, "if I need to know anything else, I'll let you know. For now, I'm sure my Servant is dealing with the Servant as we speak."

Ideally, that much would be resolved by the time Mary woke up.

With a bow of her head, Hakuno said, "I'll take my leave for now. Please contact our office if something comes up," and she made her way out of the hospital. She could wait nearby for Saber's return, and hope for some good news.
Once outside the main entrance, Hakuno made her way to a nearby bench, hoping she would be easy to spot from the skies. Once seated, Hakuno let out a long sigh. Then buried her burning face in her hands.

Who even says things like perp and slammer?! she berated herself, the embarrassment of such silliness slamming into her with great force.

Magilou

So, they really were from completely different places, huh? As expected, 'Japan' was completely unknown to Magilou (though why it brought Rokurou, of all people, to mind was a mystery), and even to Mr. Eyepatch. How delightfully curious. Still, she didn't show any signs of surprise, simply giving a mysterious smile as she mulled this information over. It was then that the duo formally introduced themselves in a rather over-the-top manner.

"...Mm. Ten points," was Magilou's only response, giving a half-hearted shrug, watching the 'Blade' Pandoria as they continued their little skit. She didn't feel like a Malakhim of any sort... though she wondered if her title indicated a similar partnership between herself and the still-shaking Bienfu.

At that moment, Zeke's interest was caught by something, and Magilou followed after him to see what was up. When she laid eyes on the strange display, evens he was momentarily at a loss for words. Yeah, it was... most definitely a map, but what was with the faces? What kind of Arte could create a map like this? The witch circled the stand, investigating from all angles as she tried to figure out how this thing could be created.

"...Alas, even my encyclopedic knowledge fails me," Magilou lamented after a few moments, shoulders slumping, "to stump even a stunning savant such as I... this is truly a shocking situation...!"

Magilou

With a satisfied smirk, Magilou finally came to a stop when the comedy duo took notice of her passing. So all those theatrics were just a ploy to strike up conversation? Whoever would resort to such silly tactics? Bienfu couldn't help but give Magilou a suspicious glance, almost as if he could feel the hypocrisy, though he returned his attention to the one-eyed guy that seemed to look directly at him. Had that been his imagination? Sure, Malakhim in general were no longer visible to the general populace, but it wasn't like there was no one ever that couldn't perceive his kind...

At that moment, a young blonde girl called out to them. The witch regarded her silently, surmising she was unlikely to be from Desolation, or at least somewhere remote enough for her knowledge to be lacking. The duo... slightly more likely, but Magilou couldn't quite place why that felt unlikely to her, too. Oh well, she'd probably find out in a few moments.

"So, I guess we were all led here by a mysterious Arte, huh?" Magilou wondered aloud, pacing slowly, "naturally, it's no mere accident that brought the magnificent Magilou to this place, but a sense of duty! Of curiosity! And just a hint of boredom!"

With a flick of her lock of hair, she turned to the group with a carefree smile, "so, where did you two wander in from? Midgand? Southgand?" she glanced towards the man with the eye-patch, "...Titania?"

"That's harsh, Magilou..." Bienfu muttered, shaking his head, "Did you learn to spot criminals by sight during your sta... ah."

Magilou had only flicked her eyes towards her shoulder, but that was enough to shut the Normin up. Leaving him to shrink away from sight, Magilous returned to smiling pleasantly at the other three, as if she hadn't been interrupted.

Magilou

"Miss Magilou! Look!" Bienfu pointed towards the two approaching figures with relief, evidently happy that he wasn't stuck in this place with just the wicked witch. Based on appearances alone, they surely had to be less terrifying than his partner! Magilou, however, simply watched them silently as she approached, carefully studying them. From the few words she could overhear, it was obvious these two weren't a threat, or at the very least, hostile. Not that she could really make sense of the overheard keywords either.

"Hey, we're gonna talk to them, right?" asked the small Normin quietly, the young woman walking closer and closer. Magilou gave an impish smile, passing by the arguing couple, and replied in a carefree tone.

"Nah they seem far too odd and outlandish~ They're probably as clueless as you are, so it wouldn't exactly help!"

Seemingly snubbing the eyepatched man and his bespectacled companion, Magilou continued onward, despite Bienfu's confused protestation. Not that she expected to go too far - if these people were in the same situation, she had a feeling they would want to stop her and suggest grouping up. And since Magilou didn't feel like initiating that suggestion, she could just let those two go ahead and make it official.

Though it would be awkward if they just moved on and left her there. Oh well, she could work around that!

Magilou

"Oh, look at that. How unexpected."

The nonchalant statement left the lips of a young woman, whose manner of dress was reminiscent of a jester. Though perhaps even a cort clown would have better dress-sense than one that adorned their waist with several tomes. Regardless, the oddly-dressed woman crossed her arms, head tilted slightly as she regarded the odd sight before her.

The door of the small cabin she had borrowed for the night was supposed to lead outside, as doors tended to do. While that remained true, the location was not a tranquil clearing surrounded by trees and the chirping of nature, but a desolate, barring hellhole. As jarring and alarming as it was, Magilou didn't seem too perturbed. she could leave that up to her little Normin companion.

"BIIIIEEEENNNN?!" cried the tophatted creature, his round eyes wide with alarm, "wh-where are me, Miss Magilou?! Did you transport us somewhere strange?!"

"Of course not," Magilou responded with a small shrug, "In fact, I didn't detect any Artes being used at all."

That was probably the most puzzling aspect. As a self-proclaimed Witch, Magilou had an ear for Artes, especially something as powerful as what appeared to be complete transportation of an entire cabin with its' occupants. And yet, when the witch glanced towards a window, she could see the clear sky and the treeline that should have been there. It was only the front door that appeared to be affected.

If she were still with the old group, she had no doubt they'd walk right on through that door, sure that it was a trap set by the Abbey. And then just plow right on through it. Velvet would do it simply to see her desires met. It brought a small, nostalgic smile to Magilou's lips, before she finally uncrossed her arms. It had been a dull week anyway. No harm in checking this out a little bit, right?

"Oh well, mind doing a little scouting work?" Magilou asking in a worryingly-sweet voice, kneeling down to grab Bienfu before he could react. As he squirmed and voiced his protestations, Magilou casually chucked him through the door, to the strange, ruined landscape outside, "is it safe out there, my brave little friend~?"

Without waiting for an answer, Magilou stepped through herself.

--------------

"You're awful..." Bienfu lamented, clinging to Magilou's shoulder as she walked through the strange, barren city, "wh-what if daemons were roaming around..."

"You're a tough guy, I'm sure you'd be fine," Magilou replied in a carefree manner, scanning everything she could see. Ruined buildings, empty roads... the architecture wasn't anything like most of the locale she knew. Was this even anywhere in Desolation? Evidently, they were taken much further than she had expected. Still, there didn't seem to be any daemons running around. The witch kept her Guardian close at hand regardless. You never knew when an ambush would occur.

"Should have brought a Geo-board..." Magilou sighed. There was a LOT of ground to cover, it looked like.

It's fine, yeah.

I should probably note I won't be playing an active PC (not yet, anyway), but I will be assisting with NPC actions and behind-the-scenes stuff, too.

Surely the only justification anyone needs to visit the shrine is Himeko's charming personality.
