Wouldn't Fairy Queen Mab be really, really, really tiny, though?

She is described as being no bigger than a "agate-stone", her whip "a cricket's bone" and her chariot being in the size of "an empty hazelnut" in the source material.

Just pointing it out.

I sure hope we get Morgan with her Apocrypha design.

[up][up][up][up]Well, since Avalon is the land of fairies, I fully expect we'll have to fight some.

Yeah, most of Doman's lines are him being a fake ass bitch. Interesting though is his Bond 5 line after you finish Heian:

Doman: NHUHUHU, HUHUHUHU! You ask of me... stop lying? Huhuhuhuhu... NNNNN! You are correct, that was nonsense, a silly jest. I, this humble priest Alter Ego Ashiya Douman, have all memories of myself as Caster and Alter Ego Limbo. I am honestly, most honestly grateful that you played along with all of my games knowing fully well that I... Pardon? Oh, no, no, I would never! In this present Saint Graph, I am your Servant, summoned by the Chaldea Summon System. My bonds to the alien god were severed, and its cut ends were pulled by you. If you cannot trust me, you are welcome to cut off my head anywhen you want. Huhuhuhuhu... however, if it suits your purposes, I would love take this opportunity of my summon to accompany you in your noble walk to the depths of hell... my lord.

In a way, he's taken the role of Mara much like Kiara did at first, except while Kiara moved past that role and came to genuinely support us, I doubt Doman would ever do so. He is openly admitting here he is still the same evil piece of shit he always was, but that he'll follow us anyway, and even offer his head if we can't trust him. He will walk the same path we do, if only to watch us descend into ruin. It really sums up Doman's character in a nutshell: It Amused Me. Looks like I'm finally convinced to roll for him.

Though unfortunately, in contrast to Caenis' line for her suggesting she could still be alive, Doman's line for Musashi seems to reinforce the idea she's Deader than Dead.
Doman: I see. So that woman achieved her greatest wish and reached her end, huh.
Guess even Doman can have Villain Respect for people then.
Describes Kiara too if were being honest.
At least Kiara sucks at hiding the fact she's Becoming the Mask. Doman is genuinely just that shitty.

oh Babbage also puts taunt buffs on his mooks to drag this out even longer, maybe I should've gone with an AOE NP?

oh Babbage applies a 20k burn for his final bar, you can just totally turtle this if you have the right supports

Babbage duel notes:

  • Babbage with 99 mooks
  • He forces a removable taunt on his Saber minions first turn, killing any mook will give Babbage a removable attack up.
  • When you kill the two minions with taunt, he applies def up/buff removal resistance/debuff immunity on himself. Forgot to check how long the turns were, but they were probably 1 turn only.
  • After first bar break, he reactivates the taunts, now unremovable and applies the 10-hit 3-turn evade to himself.
  • After second bar break, more taunt reactivation, gives himself three stacks of unremovable attack up and an unremovable 20k hp burn demerit.

[up]x4 And ironically, that attitude also makes him trustworthy as consequence.

If we are his source of entertainment, he will keep us alive for as long he thinks we can entertain and surprise him in the future...

Wonder if we are the only ones that can summon him at all, in the nasu-verse context, compared to other timelines, that is...

[up]x2 Douman's way of entertainment is to whisper awful ideas into people's ears and make them go on a murder spree, nothing about him is trust worthy.

And in the end you fell Rebel, kek ( ยด◡‿ゝ◡`)

Edit: oh yeah, and in regards to Seimei and this chapter he does appear in a sense, like old man Musashi we never see his face, just his dialogue. According to 4chan he talks like Merlin

This was a bad choice.

Final Tuna fight, I went in with a stalling party because I couldn't be arsed. Killed the mob because I didn't want to deal with its NP-reducing attacks. Now I'm stuck in a never-ending fight because he keeps getting two or three damage cut stacks which mean that I can't damage him no matter what, but he can't kill me either.

@Orihime & @Mami Hey, all I said was he needed a hook for people to want to roll for him, and he has a hook that I like: that he is so unashamedly evil and over the top that he becomes Laughably Evil, and he wears it like a badge of honor, but will still be the Token Evil Teammate and follow us despite that. So long as It Amused Me, he willingly joins Chaldea. And I can openly say I like that.

So, yeah, I'm one of you guys now. Let's just hope Pepe doesn't want us dead for having him with Chaldea...

20k burn sounds like a screw Caster Artoria in particular type of fight.

The burn is applied to Babbage himself, not the party, sorry if that wasn't clear.

#91044: Dec 5th 2020 at 5:16:01 AM

[up][up][up]Unfortunately, I will be aiding Tomoe, Ushi, and Benkei in their attempts at killing Yoshitsune... if it actually is her and not just Kagekiyo possessing her. As based on their testimony, Yoshitsune is a monster with little to no humanity left, and considering she's an Avenger, I'd rather not run the risk of dealing with her or any Servants she pissed off in life wanting revenge.

If it's just Kagekiyo, then it's not as big an issue, since Tomoe's materials suggest that, if anything, she harbors no ill will towards Kagekiyo and just suggests they Be Yourself.

I have no interest in the character if it's Taira no Kagekiyo and not Ushiwakamaru. Especially if they're using Ushi's established popularity as a vehicle for Kagekiyo. Just give us Yoshitsune already.

Then again, the idea that Yoshitsune was some inhuman monster is laughable on the same level as... well, as making Yoshinaka a hero that Tomoe loved. So I guess it would be disappointing, but not surprising.

What one finds acceptable depends on how much one cares about a mythological/historical figure. I don't really care too much about most of them so I'm pretty accepting of a lot of things, but there also a few things that will make me go ತ_ತ.

@Black: Yeah, me too, but I would prefer if it was the actual Ushi in question and not some rando from the other side of the war who hitched a ride. It's like getting, I dunno, an Iskandar alt and instead it's some no-name general he crushed piloting Iskandar's body.

I'm just kind of surprised, since Yoshitsune is generally seen as a tragic hero. The idea that he was a monster is definitely a fresh take, I'll say that much.

Oh, I see, Watanabe only loses that NP every turn buff if his first bar is broken and he gets it before Medea dies. Hm. That's a bit rough, this is a bond team. Well, still won pretty handily but that could have been bad.

In terms of how much I want to roll each SSR, it goes Ibuki > Yoshitsune > Doman. If it's Kagekiyo instead that doesn't change but... that's mostly because of gameplay? I'm not particularly interested in what he provides nor am I interested in someone who's here just to be a jerk.
