Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

Well crap.

I'm so lost.

Fate/Renegade Star [Fate/stay night Roleplay]

@A Cute Angel As I said I am fine with either Master or Servant, so yeah, assuming I make a master is correct.

While I don't really care if we have dice or not. I am interested in what makes you think that including dice reduces the relevance of skill and strategy that much?

@Skyswimsky

As someone who has played tabletop games and Dungeons and Dragons, I can't even tell you how frusterating the constant possibility of getting your perfect move messed up by a 1 roll is.

Specifically, I remember an instance on an online NWN server where my party and I planned a cave raid perfectly. Or so we thought. We had the enemies overpowered and outnumbered, and yet after a few crappy rolls, we were all dead and PO'd. Rinse and repeat about two dozen times, and you get my drift.

I guess we could also have characters that are related to the war, but not actually masters or servants. (Like Maiya and Iri.) Even if a character isn't a master to begin with, they can still become one by way of thief of command seals. Alternatively, a caster servant might summon their own servant.

Of course, everything is up to the GM.

I will not be doing dice rolls. Naturally, people will avoid being hit (and typically, most Servants will be able to avoid superficial injuries rather easily), but if you just outright refuse to be hit when you clearly deserve to be, you will be scolded.

If an Archer takes a shot from a super far distance, the result isn't based off of random chance. An Archer is not going to take a pot shot. They're going to shoot an arrow from 4km away with pinpoint accuracy, while jumping off a skyscraper and spinning a whole 360 degrees, screaming, "Yolo!".

If something happens that is like, actually based off of random chance, sure, I'll roll a dice. Otherwise, I will not. Sorry if this comes off as harsh~

@vFear Neato character, I'll look over them in a while~

@Black Alice

I have to agree with you on this. Dice rolls are really jank for something so based on skill and strategy.

Every other picture is either platinum blonde or really "fanservicey", tho. D:

Fate/Renegade Star [Fate/stay night Roleplay]

Rough WIP:

Hider

True Name: Queen Myrina of the Amazons

Class: Lancer

Gender: Female

Appearance: Slightly different from the Master sheet, in that I also expect you to provide at least a brief description of any weapons, armours or Noble Phantasms in your possession.


Birth and Death Dates: Both lie at about 5th century B.C., and that's as close as is known.

Alignment: Lawful Good.

Personality: A proud and noble queen, Myrina is just about what you would expect from a leader of the amazons. When in battle against her enemies, she is cold and stern, but has the capability to be diplomatic when the situation arises. No one would ever call her cruel, as she treats even those considered by her to be the worst of foes with dignity and can be very kind to those whom she respects and/or cares for. She will be very loyal and obedient to her master, though she may be unable to willingly follow their orders if her moral compass gets in the way. Above all, she values strategy and heroism.

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.

Weapon: Some Servants may use non Noble Phantasm weapons in combat. If your Servant uses a Noble Phantasm as a weapon state that here as well.

Parameters: Your Servant's stats. Unless they're someone really amazing, these probably shouldn't be A ranked or higher. Include modifiers as is appropriate.

Strength: D

Endurance: C

Agility: B+

Mana: B

Luck: B

Class Skills: For all skills your class has. Please do not just put name and rank. Give an explanation of what it does.

Personal Skills:
1. Strategy
2. Persuasion
3. Movement Speed

Noble Phantasm(s): You should almost certainly have only one of these. Very rarely, a particularly amazing Servant might have two, or even more Noble Phantasms. This probably isn't you.

Name: Invocation to Cybele

Title: Prayer of Purpose

Rank: E-EX. Plus modifiers are possible. If I feel like you're going too crazy with this, I'll slap you.

NP Type: Anti-Unit, Anti-Army... stuff like that.

Range:

Maximum Number of Targets:

Description: Makes the selected number of (inanimate) targets indestructible for a limited amount of time or until they "fulfill their purpose". (Ex: a key needed to unlock a door would be impossible to mutilate or destroy until it had unlocked said door).

Do the players of the servants or the masters pick the catalyst?

<Snipped quote by SevenStormStyle>

The first thing you should consider if their weapon isn't named, is if it's even worthy of being a Noble Phantasm in the first place.

Oh, you can just make up a name if it is. I expect it to be well thought out, though, no "Raging Shadow Darkblade".

@Black Alice

Oh, sorry if I didn't explain that well! I wasn't trying to imply that it was a noble phantasm. Thank you, though. I just thought it better to clarify.

Fate/Renegade Star [Fate/stay night Roleplay]

If my character's weapon is not named in legend, do I make one up or just leave it without a name?

Fate/Renegade Star [Fate/stay night Roleplay]

Anyone claimed the Lancer servant yet? If not, then I would like to reserve that spot.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

Definitely posting this weekend. I meant to last Friday/Saturday, but instead had the pleasure of going to Dollywood with the family members who stayed from 4 PM Friday to 9 PM Saturday.
