Our Daily Lives have Become a Battlefield: A Battle School Interest Check

I'll be reusing my previous idea, too.

Mahou Shoujo no Hex Night: A Magical Girl Battle RP

Chise's transformation was quite amusing to watch. The girl that Himeko had pegged to be fairly serious had instantly been won over with the promise of sweets, now resembling a carefree little girl, led only by her sweet tooth. It was quite adorable, really.

"Yes, it's really okay~" Himeko assured her. Still leading Hanako by the hand, she guided her small entourage to the shop, wondering if Chise's weakness for sweets could be exploited for extra cuteness points. Why was she surrounded by cute girls lately?
"Pick out whatever you want. Your doting maiden here will happily buy it for you! Though feeding it to you costs a little extra~"

She looked over the offered sweets for herself, figuring she might as well partake.

Caster

• 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.

Master

• Name: Yagami Hikaru
• Age: 22
• Appearance: Just bein' casual

• Personality:
  A mage-born girl with a great dislike for the expectations once placed upon her, Hikaru considers herself a free spirit following her own interests, even if it happens to be a fairly dangerous line of work she's established for herself. She hides it well when dealing with them, but Hikaru looks down on most magi, especially those entrenched in tradition and unwilling to budge in their beliefs. While by no means cruel, Hikaru can be rather petty, to the point that any charitable actions or assistance could be offered, purely to flaunt moral superiority.
  Hikaru can be somewhat slobbish at home, practically turning into a ball of blankets and snacks when there's no work to be had. She highly disapproves of being made to do anything more strenuous than wiggle around, when all she wants to do is relax and mess around with that internet thing people have been talking about lately.

• Abilities:
  Hikaru possesses an Earth affinity, her family specialising in Transmigration, or the swapping of two physical items of similar mass by utilising a magic circle. This requires Hikaru to know where the object she's swapping for is; anything from direct sight, to a clear photograph would work, as long as she can picture the location of her targeted item. Additionally, she has some general knowledge of basic magic rituals, and generic offensive spells like Gandr. Her abilities are highly limited beyond this, magic-wise.

• History:
  Born to an average Japanese magus family with no outstanding talent, Hikaru saw herself as another faceless cog from an early point in her life, compounded by her interactions with carefree kids, not limited by duties and rules that seemed to box her into a specific role to play in life. She proved to be a difficult student growing up, not taking to studies well, exasperating her parents greatly. Although she had little trouble with her family's signature magic, she never bothered trying to expand her knowledge, and arguments and bitterness only grew over the years, until she finally just... walked out.
  
  For the past four years, Hikaru’s been travelling around, taking advantage of her magecraft for work, gathering a reputation for her ability to collect highly-guarded items, amassing a small fortune for herself. At some point picking up a strange partner.

The Nameless City — Invite Only!

Magilou

With her usual nonchalant attitude, Magilou had followed Zeke, Pandoria and Hibiki through the strange door. She wanted to take the opportunity to observe her new companions, though she had the feeling that everything the witch needed to know of their personalities had already been aired and made very apparent. She couldn't help but give a small smile, though it was quickly replaced with a disdainful frown once she emerged in the rain-soaked town.

Not even the Earthpulse made the witch feel as uneasy and on-edge as this place seemed to do. The air itself felt thick with dread and despair. Bienfu shuddered, sharing similar sentiments as he clung to Magilous's shoulder.
Turning to look at the place they had emerged from, Magilou wasn't all that happy to see the door had apparently closed by itself, and her fears were confirmed when she tried to open it. Of course it was locked. All she could do was sigh, shaking her head as she resumed following the others.

Her expression was neutral, seeing the grim sight of the ravens eating the corpse. It was certainly a shame, but they couldn't exactly help him at this point. They'd be better of carefully exploring their surr-
"Huh?" Even Magilou was take-aback at Hibiki's musical transformation, momentarily surprised by the blaring of a song as she rushed forward to attack the avian beasts. Zeke joined her not long after, and given the ease of which they dispatched the creatures, MAgilou's help was hardly needed.

Once the short 'battle' concluded, Magilou began applauding with a mirthful smile, while the Normin seemed awed by the performance, "a spectacular show, young lady! Your mellifluous music has surely brightened this blemished borough~ Although..."
Magilou turned her attention to the distant, dim glow seemingly cast by several torches, a hand to her brow as she peered at the apparent gathering, "maybe turn the volume down a little? Wouldn't want the forces of darkness and despair to be attracted to the cheer, y'know?"

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.
