I keep thinking of Castlevania.

I assume Ragna meant the "for we are many" Legion, and... Hurm. I'm honestly not sure about that. I can't remember if there's anything much about them other than that one passage, but knowing me I'm probably wrong. Uh... Hmmm.

As for Houdini... I'm not sure, I think he's past the cut-off point for "too modern". And I'm not sure how well he'd work as a Caster anyways. Hurm.

Abridged version? He's a man who Jesus confronts in a village. His souls are cast into the bodies of pigs and they commit suicide by drowning in a river.

[up] That's true so I don't think he'd work as a 'heroic spirit'... Bah

Besides, I think if Legion was in a Grail War, they'd most likely be Avenger. And we all know how well things went last time Avenger was summoned. >.>

Oh, I don't know, I think summoning Avenger would be a great idea! There can't possibly be any problems with that, nope, not at all.

It's not like he's so much concentrated evil that horrible things could happen.

  • Class: Saber
  • True Name: Sigmund
  • Gender: Male
  • Height/Weight: 2 meters, 100kg.
  • Alignment: Chaotic Good
  • Appearance: You know what, needs more jecht
  • Personality: Boisterous, rambunctious, magnanimous. Though Sigmund was a king of the north, he was also a great warrior. He Was one for much of his younger life, and it shows. He comes across as unlettered and unfettered, rough and crass. This is, of course, part of his own charm, though, even if he's hardly cut out for matters of state. Also, he likes women. But since women like him too, it all works out!
  • Stats:
    • Strength: B
    • Endurance: A
    • Agility: B / A
    • Magical Energy: C
    • Luck: B+ / D
    • Noble Phantasm (Rank): A+
  • Skills:
    • Riding B
    • Magic Resistance B
    • Natural Body A: THIS BODY WAS PASSED DOWN THE VOLSUNG LINE FOR GENERATIONS! Sigmund's body is the pinnacle of the human condition, capable of rejecting external influences. Any and all curses, poisons, etc etc that would affect him physically have no effect on Sigmund.
    • Protection of Fate A: It was said that so long as Sigmund wielded Gram, he could not be wounded nor defeated, even going against the Norns' predictions in the process (until Odin took a very direct hand in matters). Like Protection of the Fairies, this skill increases Sigmund's luck in feats of arms so long as he wields Gram. (Obviously doesn't work as a wolf).
    • Charisma B: Said to be one of the greatest kings of the North.
  • Noble Phantasms:
    • Gram - Sword of Fated Ruin A+ (Anti-Fortress): The mightiest demonic sword that is the equal but opposite number to the mightiest holy sword, Gram is capable of conjuring up directed, devastating fire.
    • Ulfhednar - Jaws of the Wolf C (Support): Sigmund turns into a big, badass wolf. In doing so, he gains wolvish qualities, increasing his agility by a rank and decreasing luck by two, in addition to gaining skills equivalent to Instinct A and Animal Dialogue C. Obviously, he can't use his sword. Unless he were to make like that dog from Persona 3.

Real champions would go grab a knife and stab him themselves.

Granted, the knife would get turned away because he has abs of steel.

But hey, you gotta try.

That requisite being a woman?

Yep.

Though it still hurts if the target doesn't meet the requisites, but it doesn't kill instantly unless they meet them all.

So, let's see... We have Jack the Ripper, a guy wrapped head to toe in bandages, and a guy who turns into a wolf? All we need now is Vlad Tepes and Frankenstein's Monster and we've got ourselves a good old fashioned monster mash, ahah~ ^_^

Hmmm... Sigmund looks fine at the moment, by the way.

But on a more serious note, It looks like Jack's thing works by making the guy somehow regurgitate his/her innards rather than actually physically harming them, it might not work out as effectively as it would on another person of extreme manliness and shirtlessness as he.

This is, after all, a guy who was like:

  • Sigmund: So... I gave you a sack of flour with a snake in it. Where are they?
  • Son: Oh, that was a snake? I went ahead and baked it inside the bread. Want some?
  • Sigmund: Sure. But you can't eat some. Your body is not ready. Poison and all. *Munch munch*

Between Ash and Jack, it'd probably come down to who got the drop on who. Hence why he's going to leave her the fuck alone [lol]

  • Class: Lancer
  • True Name: Sun Wukong (Awareness of Vacuity), or the Buddha Victorious in Strife.
  • Gender: Female
  • Height/Weight: 4 feet, 10 inches.
  • Alignment: Chaotic Good
  • Appearance: Drawing shall be posted later. Has brown hair, a tail, and golden eyes. Dressed in golden armor and a tiger skin cloth, sports a filet on her head.
  • Personality: Sun Wukong is a mischievous and energetic person to be around, she's also stubborn to a fault. Cannot stand evil. Will expand more in story.
  • Stats:
  • Strength: A+
  • Endurance: B+
  • Agility: A
  • Magical Energy: B+
  • &Noble Phantasm (Rank): B+
  • Skills:Forged Body A: Due to passing through holy Taoist fires, her defense is as strong as diamonds and his very body is resistant to most types of magics, and elements of plasmatic origins, as well as sharp and piercing weapons unless she lets them affect her.
  • Magic Resistance B; can be supplemented with anti elemental charms as well as seals.
  • Riding B: Horses adore her, as she used to be Bi Ma Wen, or head of the Heavenly Stables. Can also intimidate dragons themselves.
  • Summon B: Can call minor nature spirits for assistance.
  • Luck D: Has pretty bad luck, so far attracting mostly things that wanted to fight, eat, or seal her.
  • Transformation B: Allows her to physically change her form into 72 additional ones, though her powers do not carry through.
  • Noble Phantasms:
  • Ru Yi Gin Gu Bang- A size changing Noble Phantasm that has the density of 8100 kg. It's sense of scale is rather amazing, as it can be as small as a hair pin or as tall as the largest tree. Occasionally used to sew her clothes. Unbreakable, and apparently used to hammer the Milky Way into existence. Probably can be used as Anti-Fortress.
  • Somersault Cloud- Allows her to practically summon clouds and zoom through the air instaneously, similar to a flash step ability.
  • Restraint of Buddha (Seal)- A filet that sits upon her head. Used to be used to control her whenever she got angry or unreasonable. Now that she has finished her journey, she too gained control of the filet and can use it herself. Once equipped to a person's head, it's pretty much impossible to remove it without the help of those learned in Buddhism, even if you behead yourself and grow a new one. The pain of the activated seal is akin to something attempting to crush your head in a viselike grip, though the pain will actually never kill you outright.
  • Fiery Golden Eyes- Due to a certain Taoist trying to smelt her down, she gained gleaming eyes of molten gold, with the effects of allowing her to immediately sense evil in all of its forms, regardless of illusions. Seems to allows her to sees past veils of illusions, transformations, and disguise, as well as the ability to evidently zoom forward a thousand li during day, and 600 during night.

From what I gathered, Maria the Ripper makes Jack's target basically explode.

It only has that effect on female targets on misty nights, though. Otherwise, it just hurts like hell I'd imagine.

Sun is sort of not human, though. At least Tammy had the excuse of being an actual incarnation of Ammy brought down to earth.

Also yeah, that's a curse. Granted, it's a phantasmal curse, so it wouldn't be rendered totally impotent, but it wouldn't be as effective on him as it would be of other shirtless guys.
