Uhhh, guys? We're getting quite a few civvie and corp Masters here. I understsnd only having one gov. representative, but we should have at least two rebels or rebel sympathizers.
I've got new mythological machinery, and very handsome supernatural scenery. Goodfae: a mafia web serialMaking a rebel as we speak, actually. Hopefully he'll be up soon, eheheh~
Although to be perfectly honest, I'm not entirely sure why you've went with this factions thing. All it really seems to be doing is making things more overcomplicated than they should be. >.>

I would like to point out that, if Musashi is paired with Jack, Jack's far from a fighter and is more of a "take you by surprise and stab you" servant. So the whole thing wouldn't be a problem at all.

"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."@Moe: It's really not terribly important, it's just the whole thing is necessary to the civil unrest sideplot which is the reason for a new Grail War.
Speaking of, forgot to mention that. Since this is the Mage's Association rebooting the actual Grail Wars, as in from square one, the Grail is uncorrupted, and will grant wishes according to intent, not malicious wording or subconscious desires. A winner will truly be you.

I've got new mythological machinery, and very handsome supernatural scenery. Goodfae: a mafia web serialDidn't like her character design (loli 10 year old X_X) but I'm not here to reject on that basis. I am only allowed to reject based on overpoweredness.
She seems cool. Just remember that there are limits to how often she can use the full reality marble. Considering she's only 10, I'd say once, unless something special happens.
Reserving a Master slot for a governmental mage/politician who fights for the sake of democracy achieved by peaceful means (that is to say both anti-corporation and anti-terrorists), if that's okay. I'll get the SU by tomorrow.

Join us in our quest to play all RPG video games! Moving on to disc 2 of Grandia!Alright, I can see why you might have some issues with Fragarach. But now I think on it, it doesn't match Enkidu too well, does it? Enkidu has the brute force to deliver his OWN killing blows, so... why not make a master that uses brute force purely, hm? :3 I shall let you know when I've finished my edits~
EDITED COMPLETE
Come check out my profile and please let me know if that works, and if it can be Enkidu's Master as well thank you~

Token Loli!- Name: Mikko Takaru
- Age: 17
- Gender: Female
- Height/Weight: 160cm/49kg
- Appearance: Zettai Ryouiki
As the Fate series demands.
- Personality: Classic cute generic girl in a harem who's in love with a protagonist and will devote herself body and soul for him. Except she's unattached. Waiting for a knight in shining armour to come and rescue her so she can get him to fall in love with her by any means necessary.
- Abilities: Extreme cuteness
- Bio: Orphaned due to various circumstances involving the government and the corporations fighting for power. The rebels picked her up and she's lived a happy life with her new family in the rebellion. As she grew up, she turned out rather pretty so she voluntarily became the rebellion's public face whenever there was anything to promote. It doesn't happen much but she's the one heading the speeches whenever there's a need. As the Holy Grail War turned out to be a rather public affair, the rebels agreed that acquiring more support from the public could be just as important as actually winning. Thus, they sent her as a master.
- Assets: Heheh. She has quite a nice set of assets if you - OW! Okay, stop hitting me KSPAM. She has a good chunk of financial backing but not nearly at the level of the corporations and governments. She also has a large number of fans and haters, though these people mostly stick to online places.
She's a relatively comic character compared to the rest of the cast but I'll be writing her seriously when in actual important situations. Of course, assuming KSPAM approves her =).

Looks good to HHHHNNNNNGGGGGGGGG
I've got new mythological machinery, and very handsome supernatural scenery. Goodfae: a mafia web serialHmmm, so, uh, a Master, in case we need another one. >.> I'm... Not sure about his Mystic Code, by the way, so if it doesn't work I can easily scrap it and try something else. Anyways, here goes...
- Name: Chad Kilroy
- Age: 18
- Gender: Male
- Height/Weight: 162cm, 54kg
- Appearance: “Social order at the expense of liberty is hardly a bargain.”
◊
- Personality: Cool headed and strangely rational for what many would believe to be a crazed anarchist. He usually speaks in a bored monotone, not out of arrogance but mostly because he really doesn't care all that much about the kind of people he runs into. He seems to lighten up once he meets someone who shares his beliefs, or at least agrees with him on some points, although he still rarely shows any expression other than an annoyed scowl. Chad is willing to take some pretty extreme measures to achieve his goals; as he honestly thinks what he is trying to achieve is what's best for mankind, he has no qualms in letting the ends justify the means.
- Abilities: As a magus, he is able to use magecraft; his element is "Fire" and his origin is "Indignation". Whilst his skill at magecraft is notably rather high, it can't be ignored that he has very few, low grade magic circuits. He is surprisingly skilled at reinforcement, but his true specialization is in formalcraft, something he has studied relentlessly as a way to make up for his weak magical ability. He also showed some skill in alchemy, but he mostly uses those skills to create explosives. Chad's also rather well versed in combat, and is a black belt in kung fu, as well as being well trained enough in both knife fighting and gunmanship that he can easily prove more than a match for most regular humans in a fight.
- Bio: A lower class magus whose family only developed magical ability a few generations ago, he was constantly looked down upon by most of his peers at the Clock Tower for being a "commoner". This quickly developed into a lack of respect for the upper class and authority in general, as he began to embrace the philosophy of anarchism, turning his hatred towards anyone in power. He reached a turning point in his life when he discovered the writings of a magus who used to work at the Clock Tower almost a century ago, Lord El-Melloi II, who proposed that the bloodline of a magi meant nothing, and that given enough hard work and effort even a "commoner" could surpass an "elite". Enraged that such theories had been stamped down on and supressed by the so-called "elite" so that they could keep their place at the top, he left the Clock Tower that very night and began planning a way to topple the established order and prove once and for all that an "elite" is no better than a "commoner" like him. Soon afterwards, he not only found out about the Grail War, but that one of the Harway family, one of the strongest proponents of the elitist philosophy he hated so much, was entering. This was his biggest chance; if he could get his hands on the Grail, then he'd show them all just what a "commoner" is capable of...
Technically part of the resistance, but is really more of an anarchist in it only for himself and his beliefs. - Assets: His outfit is made from a lightweight yet bulletproof material, which provides him protection against small arms fire and knives. He doesn't have much money, most of it going towards paying for materials to use in his war against the elitists. He carries a pistol with him, but very rarely uses it. He is far more likely to fall back on the various knives he carries, especially one in particular: his Mystic Code, "Seventh Knight", a seemingly ordinary switchblade that was once in possession of one of the most feared assassins of the 21st century (it is unknown how Chad came across this weapon; although he claims to be descended from this assassin it is more than likely he just stole it). Despite originally having no powers whatsoever other than being a particularly nice knife, its many exploits (not least the legend that it was used to kill several of the Dead Apostle Ancestors) have caused it to become a conceptual weapon of sorts, allowing it to affect spirits and therefore Servants. However, it isn't exactly the most powerful of weapons, and Chad does not possess the seemingly superhuman assassination abilities of Satsujinki, so it's mostly only good for surprise attacks and wounding the pride of Servants.

Hmm. Out of curiosity, how many reasons can you find to definitively reject the Fate/Esoterica Achilles? Things to remember include blatant instability and lack of subtle when NOT berserk, losing fully half their skills and the more useful (as in, useful to their master beyond 'point and pray') NP under Mad Enhancement, and to pretend there's a skill there that effectively confers A+ Independent Action should you kill the master first, until the person responsible is dead. I'm somewhat bored.
Sorry, but Starbound already has someone for Berserker. Talked about it with me in a PM. You can use her if Starbound backs out though.

Goodfae: a mafia web serialOn the topic of worldbuilding, if anyone's interested in knowing, the Overseer for this War is the however-many-greats grandson of Kotomine Kirei, Abbott Ashdown. Despite bearing more than a little resemblance to his evil incarnate ancestor, Abbott is actually a pretty cool dude. Seriously.

Umm... Musashi means good with a sword. So, that means they can fight well. Dead Apostle... err... not seeing how that lets them hurt Servants. Maybe if they started punching them? That's not using a sword, though, so there'd be a notable lack of skill and the Servant would win that fight.
... That scenario is exactly why their Servant would be Assassin or Caster: neither class is one that would be any good at fighting (there's absolutely no reason that Jack would have any fighting skill, which is what's important here), which means that using them to hold up another Servant would catastrophically fail. Or, if this happened anywhere near the beginning, it's almost a certainty that someone would intervene. And if it happened near the end... well, that's why the word endgame exists, right?
