"...The situation is quite irregular, Lord El Melloi II"

"A collapse you say, Great Grandmaster?"

"Indeed... I yet don't know what is the cause, but sections of the Throne of Heroes are falling apart. And the place where the greatest ritual involved with it... The city of Fuyuki is being hit with strange phenomenons due to it. Shadows of the Heroic Spirits are manifesting within the city and its surroundings... and the borders between realities are getting thin"

"That dire... We must act immediately... mobilize most of our resour-"

"Now, that won't be necessary, Lord El Melloi. I've already arranged for some agents to tend to the situation in Fuyuki... And additionally, I can sense that Alaya is already on the move"

"Grandmaster... why are you smiling?"

"I just think things may get very interesting... Anyway, we should focus on containing the situation. Deploy our resources to make sure no strange news get out of the city. Don't allow harmful entities leave the boundaries of the city"

"What about the people, Grandmaster?"

"We shouldn't even bother restricting access into and out of the city. With that Force working within, any such efforts would be in vain"

"Right away, Grandmaster"

"Heh... Ruby, Sapphire... I hope you bring some interesting stories back"

Hi everyone!

This new RP, as you may infer from the title, is based on the Kaleid Liner Prism Ilya version of Fate, however, there are a lot of modifications to the system to make for an RP.

The basic premise is thus, on the city of Fuyuki there is a strange phenomenon happening. The Throne of heroes is collapsing, making pocket dimensions all around the town which start to drain prana from the environment. Inside of these pocket dimensions lie the records of Heroes from the thrones... Shadows of the Heroic Spirits contained by Alaya. As the pocket dimensions gather prana, supernatural phenomena may start to occur around them and the drain of this magical energy may start affecting the humans who spend too much time around them. Eventually however, the worst case scenario may occur... and when the dimension gathers enough energy it may summon Heroic Spirit into the real world to cause a rampage.

To stop this, there will manifest in the city the existences known as Kaleid warriors. Coming from numerous alternate dimensions (And two from our own, Ruby and Sapphire), magical devices which access the Second Magic will manifest around Fuyuki city, choosing humans suitable to their preference to empower.

These devices are the work of the highest kind of Magecraft, drawing near unlimited energy from the air of alternate dimensions. Once they make a contract with a human, they allow for high thaumaturgy to be cast from the imagination and natural ability of their holder. They protect their owner by providing them with armor (in the form of a costume) and a magical barrier. They also allow for the strengthening of their user and to release powerful magical attacks.

With these tools in hand, the Kaleid warriors can even battle against Heroic Spirits. And if they defeat them, they can obtain another powerful artifact... Hero Cards. These cards allow for a direct connection to the soul of the Hero in question, allowing their user to draw upon their skills, weapons and powers a certain amount of times a day.

Mysteriously, every single Kaleido Device comes with a single Heroic Card on their possession.

As for who can be a Kaleid warrior? Just about anyone! The things which draws every Kaleid Device vary from Device to Device. The Devices too vary in wildly in shape. While the two coming from our dimension take the form of Sticks like those wielded by Magical Girls, an alternate dimension may have a sword, a watch, a cape or any kind of form. Some are sentient and some are not. The only thing they have in common is their connection to the Second Magic.

Here is a tentative character sheet... don't consider it final just know, but it should be the guide by which most characters will be made.

— Human Section —

• Name:
• Gender:
• Age:
• Appearance:
• Personality/Bio:
• Skills, Abilities, Possessions:

— Kaleid Warrior Section —

• Kaleid Device: Name of the device, as well as color, shape and personality if they have one.
• Costume: The form their 'armor' takes. It can look like actual armor, a magical girl costume or even a transformation.
• Stats: Not all Kaleid Warriors are the same, here is where you can customize what your warrior is good at. You get 8 points to spend. Each stat starts at nothing or '-' exactly the same as a normal human. Spending a point on a stat drives it to E or ten times a normal person. Two points to D. Three to C. You can spend a maximum of three points on each skill.
  • Strength: The amount of physical enhancement your device grants you. Allows you to hit, throw and manipulate the world around you in a physical manner way beyond the standards of humanity.
  • Endurance: Describes the amount of punishment your Kaleid warrior can take. It enhances your magical barrier, the resistance of your armor and the ability of your Device to regenerate wounds you have sustained. It also helps drive away the effects of poison and the like.
  • Agility: Denotes the enhancement that your Device brings to your mobility and reflexes. It is not only speed, but the ability to react to situations and think faster. It's brought about by using bursts of prana to move as well as enhancing the body to make it quicker and more mobile.
  • Magical Ability: Denotes a series of factors, such as the ability to draw magic from parallel dimensions, imagination and general magical suitability. It powers up to a certain extend the rest of the abilities, allows someone to realize more complex thaumaturgy and to use the device in an offensive manner by casting more powerful magical attacks.
  • Flying: The ability to fly freely on the air. An ability that grants a lot of mobility. Requires one point to unlock and may not be improved after that.
• Specialty: A single ability, trick, gimmick or power that is dependent on who your character is. It may be an affinity for barriers, a power of invisibility or just about any other skill that comes from their personality, soul or Origin. Though not inherently unique, they do help add flavor to a character.

—Hero Section—

Now, every Kaleid warrior will have access to one card to start with and will likely earn more as the RP progresses. These cards allow the warrior to use the powers of the spirit depending on their nature. You can either Include them on your Device to gain access to a weapon or Noble Phantasm of theirs or try to Install them in your own body to obtain their stats and skills. This takes a lot of prana and is straining on the body of the summoner, the longer the fusion is maintained, the harder it becomes. For the most part, you can only Install or Include with one card, though a method to access the entirety of the power of the spirit is being planned. Once a card is used, it is rendered useless for about four hours. Multiple cards may be used at once, though this is suitably straining on the one doing this.

• Card Name: The True Name of the Heroic Spirit the card links you to.
• Stats: Each card, when Installed, may boost the stats of the user to up to four points. These may be a four point boost to Agility or it may be one point up in all stats. It depends on what the Hero was good at in their life. Though it is very rare for a hero to be recognized sorely for a single stat, so these boosts tend to be spread around two or three stats at least.
• Appearance: When Installed, the Costume of the one using the card is naturally shifted to one closer to that of the Heroic Spirit being called upon. Describe what changes come to your character due to it.
• Skills: What skills do your character obtain to go along with the stats of the Hero?
• Noble Phantasm: What Noble Phantasm or Weapons can you draw upon when Including the card on your Device? What do they do, what do they look like and the such should be included here.

---

So that's about it fort he initial idea. Anyone have any questions or concerns? I was toying with various ideas about this... like establishing teams to compete for the cards, whenever or not a wish may be granted to those who collect the cards and means of having the Heroic Spirits themselves appear after their Card is collected.

If I'm sure of something it's that I'm not sure of anything.

...I should probably not be thinking of this as Fate meets magical girls meets Kamen Rider Ryuki, should I?

Sounds like fun, though, so... We'll see how things turn out, ahah. Although wondering how many cards you're allowed to start with. And... If it's okay to place a reservation on a Francis Drake card. >.> <.<

CLAIMIN' Kaleido Ruby and Ilya.

You may only start with a single card. More will be obtained as Heroic Spirits are defeated. It's alright to reserve Francis Drake.

If I'm sure of something it's that I'm not sure of anything.

I'd like to claim Sasaki Kojirou please!

I'm going to call Diarmuid before it's too late.

• Name: Illyasviel von Einzbern
• Gender: Female
• Age: 10
• Appearance: “M-miyu…”◊
• Personality: Ilya is an upbeat girl with a love of magical girl anime. She’s the type to purchase a Blue-ray online, wait for it in the mail then watch it immediately after getting it. This girl knows nothing of anime backlogs! Other than her niche taste in magical girl shows, she’s shown to be cowardly when faced with a challenge she can’t bring herself to overcome. They’re mostly mental blocks in the road rather than something that can’t be beaten without some elbow grease. When she has moments like this, she gets a spell of self-deprecation. Asking herself “Am I good enough? Can I help?” The truth is that Ilya’s greatest enemy is herself. Her fears and self-judgement hold her back from doing something really great like helping those close to her.
• Bio: Ilya was originally meant to be the conduit for the first Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City. Her mother Irisiviel and her father Kiritsugu abandoned the ritual and from that Ilya was able to live a relatively peaceful life in Fuyuki City. There’s not much else to her story than that. Now she attends school in Fuyuki City with her adoptive brother Shirou Emiya and she lives in a house maintained by her maids Sella and Leysritt.
• Skills, Abilities, Possessions:
  • Ilya is great at imagining things which allows her to learn flight and use other magic relatively quickly.
  • Ilya has high-capacity Magic Circuits.

---

• Kaleid Device: Kaleido Ruby
• Device Personality: Kaleido Ruby is a good-natured troll. Also really perverted depending on the kind of situation that their Master is in. Can be introspective and kind if needed but Ruby prefers to cause light-hearted suffering to others.

• Costume: “Let’s go, everyone!”◊
• Stats:
  • Strength: E
  • Endurance: E
  • Agility: D
  • Magical Ability: C
  • Flying: E
• Specialty:
  • Ilya has great efficiency with Hero Cards that allow her to utilize their strengths to the best of her abilities. This adds +1 to Hero Card status boost, making the max points 5 instead of 4.

— Human Section —

• Name: Damodara Koizumi
• Gender: Male
• Age: 15
• Appearance: "Hm? Oh, it's you again. Remind me again why you're interrupting me?"
• Personality/Bio: Damodara is the kind of guy who pulls no punches. He isn't afraid to tell you exactly what he thinks of you, and is quick to jump to brutal honesty. He's frequently very deadpan and expresses little outwards emotion besides condescending sarcasm or contempt. Willing to manipulate people if he needs to, he's very much a "what's in it for me" kind of guy, and would very much like to use the power of the cards to chase his own desires. However, at the same time he cannot ignore the threat they pose. He gives off the aura of someone with a very shady past, and for this reason along with his good looks, tends to be popular with members of the opposite sex.
• Skills, Abilities, Possessions:
  • Is proficient in pickpocketing, lockpicking, and parkour. His best area of study is English literature and philosophy.
  • Owns a small oak pen knife he received as a gift from his mother

— Kaleid Warrior Section —

• Kaleid Device: Kaleido Gold
  • Appearance: Takes the form of a gold earring. The main body of the earring is a flat rectangle made of gold ending in a small nub with stylized wings and a star inside it.
  • Personality: An honorable and stoic figure who believes in chivalry and doing the right thing. Needless to say, he and his Master do not always see eye to eye. However, he is unfailingly loyal, and will continue to serve anyone he pledges himself to, even if he despises them.
• Costume: A black and red suit with gold accents and a red fur cape. Comes with black and gold gloves and boots as well.
• Stats:
  • Strength: D
  • Endurance: E
  • Agility: D
  • Magical Ability: D
  • Flying: E
• Specialty: Damodara has an affinity for fire which allows him to control small flame sources and imbue his attacks with a fire element. This ability is boosted by the Heroic Spirit's own attributes when Damodara Installs Karna.

May I play as just a Human, or would I need to be a Servant too? I can't really do Servants...

Avatar from http://x0whitelily0x.livejournal.com/7486.html

Ah, nobody is actually a Servant.

You can get their powers, but that's more like a power up than anything. You can be a normal person that get magical powers. It's kind of the situation of a normal girl that gets to become a Magical Girl.

If I'm sure of something it's that I'm not sure of anything.

I see. That makes sense...um, I'd like to reserve a spot but I don't think I'll have a profile up until tomorrow.

Avatar from http://x0whitelily0x.livejournal.com/7486.html

I'm interested, but concerned since this is going off of a series. How much is needed to know about the series to be in this?

Just going off the top of my head here, but I'm guessing not terribly much. The spinoff this seems to be based on already required little to no knowledge of the whole Fate / Nasuverse franchise to understand, at least. It's basically Mahou Shoujo with a backdrop for flavor.

Keep a spot open for me too?

I'm trying to think up a character.

PM box is Closed, Indefinitely Friend Code: 3368-4181-6850

• Name: Yuina Tsukuda
• Gender: Female
• Age: 15
• Appearance: “Hello, what can I do for you?”◊
• Personality: Yuina is a girl that puts others before herself. On top of that she's responsible and does her best to inspire others to follow their dreams. Her overwhelming self-confidence and friendly personality are what attract people to her. Because of this she can come off as an air-head. She can talk and talk for hours on end without running out of subjects to chatter about. While she has a great personality, there are still some negative sides to it. While she is a great person, if she ends up hurting someone as a result of her actions — she'll lose her sleep just thinking about how to make it up to the other person.
• Bio: The Tsukuda family isn’t a very large Magus family with a lineage dating back to the Age of Gods or anything, they’re a relatively modern family with roots starting back in the 1900s. They formally practiced rune magic in Europe but since that never lead anywhere, they turned to rituals and alchemy. The Tsukuda family slowly turned from Magi to something like witchdoctors, using the power of Magecraft to heal ailments in the modern day. Yuina herself has studied the human body and her family’s brand of magecraft her entire life. Along with this she attends Middle School in Fuyuki City as a 2nd year. She has friends that hang with her but no lasting connections outside of school (other than her family).
• Skills, Abilities, Possessions:
  • Possesses knowledge of the human body and can use medicine and magic to heal small to medium sized injuries or wounds.

---

• Kaleid Device: Kaleido Silver
• Device Personality: A rather stoic and enigmatic figure that comes off as detached from anything around it.
• Device Appearance: Kaleido Silver◊, though Yuina forces it to transform into a floral staff.
• Costume: “Well, how do I look? Good, right?~”◊
• Stats:
  • Strength: E
  • Endurance: C
  • Agility: C
  • Magical Ability: E
  • Flying: -
• Specialty: Yuina’s specialty is in floral magic. She can force plants to sprout themselves and attack/restrain the opponent.

---

• Card Name: Arjuna
• Stats:
  • Strength: -
  • Endurance: +1
  • Agility: +3
  • Magical Ability: -
  • Flying: -
• Appearance: “Oh Brahma, I pray to thee.”◊
• Skills:
  • Divinity - Rank A: The avatar of the Hindu deity Nara.
  • Eternal Arms Mastership - Rank A: A warrior without peer during his time in life.
  • Riding - Rank A+
  • Clairvoyance - Rank A: Capable of tracking targets more than 10km away.
• Noble Phantasm:
  • Gandiva; Thunderous Roaring Bow - Rank A - Anti-Army:
  • The magical bow of the hero Arjuna that was crafted by Brahma, the Creator of the universe in Hindu Mythology. It is a bow said to fire with the clapping of thunder. The worth of the bow is incomparable to others. It alone could slay hundreds of hostile armies and the single bow was equal to a hundred thousand bows. The bow and its two-limitless quivers work in conjunction with one another. When the string is strung back, arrows will manifest around Arjuna's body and lock onto the single target that Gandiva itself is pointed at. When the bow is fired, the rain of arrows will burst forward straight at the desired target.
  • Khandava; Incinerating White Embers - Anti-Army - Rank B:
  • The chariot gifted to Arjuna by Varuna and is the same God of the Water that bestowed Gandiva to Arjuna. The chariot is drawn by white horses and wherever the horses step, white flames are left in their wake. The chariot is decorated with gold, gemstones and a banner dedicated to the Hindu God Hanuman.

"Yup. That tasted purple."

Ooooh, I want to try this.

• Name: Hikari Harukaze
• Gender:Female
• Age:15
• Appearance:
• Personality: Hikari is bubbly and cheerful, ever full of talk and conversation. She is easily befriend and easy to get along with. She sees the good side of people more clearly. Though naive she is nevertheless rational(most of the time) and can use her brain to think her way out of a tight situation, though these situations seldom occur.

• Bio: From a rich family that has once every few generations produced mages of some quality, Hikari has grown up in relative peace. Her family refuses to delve too deep into the world of the Magus, knowing the troubles that come from meddling in the affairs of wizards. However they are not above sending an occasional relative to study alchemy. Hikari was not recognised as a mage and thus was not brought up as one. Thus the world of magic is new to her.

• Abilities: Coincidentally, Hikari's magic circuit derives some of its power from the sun, therefore she is able to draw on more magical energy in sunlight- not that she knows. She also has the ability to cast light related spells- not that she knows.
