Fate oath/alternative (Festival of Epics Reboot) Discussion

Because Aaron just wants to kill and he won't run out of mana so easily.

I just thought of something. If the zombies are going berserk without their Master, to the point where they are attacking the whole city even though moments before they were tranquil... isn't that bad news for Jack who is right in their midst to carry his Master's body?

Shouldn't they attack him too since they are mindless and acting out of instinct?

Kind of Hoist by His Own Petard if that's the case.

If Stamford can fight Arturia, then I'm cool with him dying. I sort of wanted that as an endgame, someone to let Arturia know that the Brits are a bunch of cocknoses and genocided the vikings.

That's true, didn't think of that. I'll go ahead and edit it in.

Though, based upon what everyone has said, I'm wondering if Kaleb's The Dead would even be capable of harming Servants. I'm still leaning towards yes, but let's see what Ragna says.

I'm now pretty sure the goal of this RP is to recreate Fate/Zero and make Arturia shed tears in realization of her broken ideals. Dad issues, friends of the round table possibly being killed again, and now realization that her country committed genocide. >.>

She'll also probably have to deal with a giant gribbly monster. If Shirou ever shows her Akira, she'll be terrified.

I don't plan on leaving, just backing them up to a more defendable point. Elias won't run unless he absolutely has to.

Hmmm now... what to do with Medusa. I want to keep playing as her but given my Master situation... I don't really like playing as both Servant and Master.

Next post is where shit hits the fan some more. Twice over. Prepare the seats!

My body is ready.

I fear for our lives.

Poor city.

We are already dead.

Already dead?

We were never alive to begin with.

Oh right, I forgot to tell everyone of the ruling. Kaleb will remain dead, although Jack the Ripper will be granted pseudo-Independent Action for only half a day. Daltar's GM status has been revoked and has been issued with a warning.

Re: Self-Geis Scrolls: I don't know whether the Master being unaware of his/her Servant's attack creates a loophole, but I've been leaning toward the notion that an individual's Soul, and thus their Magic Circuits and Command Seals, knows on the most basic, primal level possible when the terms of the agreement are about to be violated, even if the person's conscious mind has no idea.

I'd appreciate it if the GMs could opine or rule on the matter, though.

Man, Ragna teasing the next post is makin' me refresh rapid fire. I'm so tired after watching the new ep. of SAO though. I just know the post is gonna come right after I go to sleep. Like within five minutes just so the universe can spite me.

NOW I'M NOT GOING TO POST TONIGHT.

I shoulda kept that to myself shouldn't I. Well then, I'm going to leave before the others realize this and shoot me on sight. *escapes*

Curses! He's escaped!

On an entirely different note, new Trailer for Fate/CCC was released. Some more information, and this Servant◊ right here is getting me thinking.

100$ says it's Lilith, based on the demonic features. Better picture here.◊ What do you guys think?

I'm not entirely sure we can actually determine the identity of Servants that easily just through their appearances. For example, blonde caucasian Gilgamesh, redhead Iskander, and the Hashashin looking very... african? Though Lilith is definitely an option for this character; the monster girl traits could also lead to her being, like, Echidna, perhaps?

Echidna, maybe. The Class of the character is also up for debate, although I'm just going to say Lancer.

I was actually going for Caster, but that's my JRPG Logic talking.

Ragna! We need plot!

I'm going with Lilith, mostly because Echidna isn't usually depicted with horns or a weapon of any kind and because the idea of Typhon and her... scares me.
