@Ragna: Don't count on it.

Oh, and I edited Shapur per your suggestions.

Claiming Caster for Not-Merlin.

Both Casters are already booked, I think. Try Bahzahkah.

Hey, I finished Oath Alternative, didn't I? Sorry, but I had to take care of IRL crap. Also, which Servants are open?

I think there's an Archer and Two Berserkers left.

Dibs on one of the Zerkers. Also, you still want that Master?

No berserkers now. Death and I have claimed both of them.

We need Masters, so yes.

• Team: Black
• Class: Caster
• Master: Flat Eskardos
• True Name: Semiramis
• Gender: Female
• Height/ Weight: 167 cm, 51 kg
• Alignment: Lawful Evil
• Appearance: The Beautiful Queen◊
• Personality: Caster is a peerless beauty that lets loose a degenerate atmosphere in some respects. She works out strategies alongside her Master to fulfill her ambitions. She is a very enthusiastic person who indulges in luxury and decadence. Since her childhood, she has studied a wide range of disciplines such as cosmetics, hairdressing, dancing, clothing, music and astronomy and her beautiful face has captivated many men. Her passion has led her to start a war to possess a single man, and to poison her husband, the king, for politics, but her abilities as a queen are indisputable. Proof of the many expeditions she has led can be seen on walls and the Ishtar Gate.
• Stats:
  • Strength: E
  • Endurance: D
  • Agility: C
  • Magical Energy: A
  • Luck: A
  • Noble Phantasm (Rank): B++
• Class Skills:
  • Territory Creation (A): Creation of a "Temple" becomes possible.
  • Item Construction (A+): Capable of making healing potions that grant limited immortality. Furthermore, when it comes to creating poisons, this Servant's skill is nearly without peer. Can create various magical plants as well as servant automatons.
• Personal Skills:
  • Mystic Face (B): Is a spell inherent of one's facial features which is cast as soon as the target look at the user's face. Works like the equivalent of Mystic Eyes of Charm or Minor Enchantment.
  • Expert of Many Specializations (C): Semiramis made it her duty to learn and master a wide array of skills. Cosmetics, disguises, sewing, tactics, astrology, botany, hairdressing, dancing... These and other skills are hers to use as an Expert.
  • Charisma(B): Is the natural talent to command an army. Increases the ability of allies during group battles. A rare talent.
  • Disguise (B): The ability to alter the appearance of oneself and others, enhanced by the power of a Sorceress. Can create any humanoid appearance and it even affects clothing. Can only be used in willing subjects.
• Noble Phantasms:
  • Hanging Gardens of Babylon: Aerial Garden of Vanity
    • Rank: B++
    • Type: Support - Anti Army
    • Semiramis Noble Phantasm manifests itself as the greatest of her creations, the single most imposing symbol of her vanity. It is a giant floating palace on which the Hanging Gardens of the Queen Semiramis rest, as well as an extension of land on which minor gardens rest. All in all, it resembles a long floating island, covered in lush luxurious gardens of flowers and plants now extinct, aqueducts, pools of water with exotic lilies floating on them and at the very back of the island the Garden which also serves as the Queen's palace. The Garden has all the amenities of an Emperor's Palace, with multiple suites, baths, ritual rooms, terraces and the like and it is staffed by a great number of humanoid automatons. The floating palace is protected from prying eyes by conjured clouds and spells which allow it fly high upon the air without any mortals noticing... and until it is discovered by the enemy with some skill or search or revealed by Semiramis team, it should be concealed from their eyes as well. The castle can also function as a hidden weapon due to the lovely flowers and plants that adorn it. If the Fortress would be compared to a ship, the flowers would be its turrets, being able to release offensive magical 'bullets' charged with Semiramis' poison attribute. While any single flower would only pose a threat to a Servant if they stayed still to receive hit after hit for a good while, the sheer number of them as well as a couple stronger plants make it so that the Fortress does not lack teeth to defend itself and its Mistress. One may get to the Castle by simple flight, though the more convenient method lies in teleportation by ritual. There is a chamber within the Fortress made for this special purpose and Semiramis or her Magus allies can use talismans created by the Queen to create with a ritual a new gateway into Hanging Gardens. The inner palace of the Gardens can close itself in case of siege, but any Servant with some time is more than capable of breaking inside. If destroyed, the Gardens may not be summoned again without a great cost.

Sherlock was accepted.

Needs moar over the top Servants. I count at least three or four with some semblance of subtlety

Writing up sheets now.

...Also, can I use Tammy (In her Monster Form, when summoned by a Master with an impure heart) as a Zerker?

Pushing it WAY too much there, mate.

....Eh. Oh well.

• Name: Rosa Allen
• Faction: Team "Trying to Stay Alive"
• Age: 16
• Gender: Female
• Description: Ahem.◊
• Personality: At first glance, this young woman is cold, aloof and antisocial, but in actuality she's way shy and socially awkward. And one hell of a Covert Pervert. She'll find innuendos and double entendres everywhere, get extremely flustered, and make a fool of herself. Now you see why she doesn't interact with others much. She's also fiercely protective of her few closest people, especially her mother. She has a deep-seated phobia of blood and guns, and will go into panic attacks if the words are even mentioned. Suffers from PTSD.
• Abilities: Not a Magus. Normal girl with normal girl abilities. Is a nerd, though, and knows quite a lot about mythology and history.
• Bio: Born in the US, she was a normal girl until she was eight, when her parents and her got into a car accident. Dad died and Mom got brain damaged. Her dad's brother took them in but she had to take care of her mom since then. When she was eleven, one night when her uncle was out, some punk broke into their house. She had to protect mom, so she tackled the dude. Through sheer dumb luck, she managed to grab a hold of the punk's gun...and...while they were struggling...shot him in the heart. Twice. After 3 years of therapy, they moved to Brazil to start fresh....
• Assets: "A-assets?! I won't tell you what size they are, you perv! O-oh, not what you meant....I'll be shutting up now.." (Normal School Girl Assets.)

This post was thumped by the Shillelagh of Whackingness

@Ragna's list: You forgot Gatsby, old sport.

Nope. Gatsy is not accepted even after the changes you've made.

Claiming that Rider. It's still unclaimed, right?

Might I ask why?

You seem to have not read up on the material and the Servant lacks the appropriate level of power to even stand against the others in this war, feel free to try again after taking a look at the other Servants and getting a good feel for the relative level of power and some of the skills common to Fate.

Ok, then I'll edit one thing at a time, until I get it right.

On that note, is Shapur edited enough to your liking?

• @Shapur: Reduce Magic resistance to Rank C, reduce Riding to Rank C. After that, Shapur is accepted.
• @Cain: I would recommend taking Cain's stats 1 Rank below base Assassin stats. Since he has Curse of Cain, having such high Stats would make him a force to be reckoned with in a physical fight. That would be okay for Berserker but not Assassin.
• @Semiramis: Get rid of hid of High Speed Divine Word and get rid of Divinity. Do that and she's fine.
• @Rosa Allen: Accepted.
• @Canaan: Accepted.
