Ok lol I ran Corinne and Youri through an alignment test and you were right xD
Corinne's a Chaotic Good and Youri is True Neutral.
Atm I'm tentatively trying to do the basic profiles (a.k.a. stats) so I can share them with you.
Also trying to make the backstories more interesting so there will be reason for the characters to be summoned as Heroic Spirits.
Oh and I'm also trying to come up with possible catalysts if you want to use that xD so just let me know.
Offline
Lol look at me knowing my alignments :3
Cool xD. Did you want Wiley's stats? I'll probably take forever with the others' but I did his stats yesterday lol, I still dk what "Mana" means so that one's the tentative one
I think we'll both need the catalysts for POVing lol

Also a note on worldbuilding--since this is a GGaD AU, did you want to make the world more like Forengard so we have a bit more of a place to work with, or did you wanna go by Earth? If we go by Forengard (our variation of it anyways)...idk tbh, maybe we'd be a tad bit more familiar with it. But I dunno if deities in that variation of Forengard would be as "public" as they are in GGaD canon, e.g. for Divine Spirits in Fate they mostly were active in Babylonia, not at all times. That might be interesting for lore ig (and also explain why there aren't OP deities just being summoned in regular Grail Wars). And also ig the Heroic Spirits would be on a different timeline than on Earth, so there would be Forest Spirits existing logically in that sense.
I can't cover everything rn, sorry. Just wanted to note this

If we're going by Earth btw, I'd be up to letting the location be in South America. It wouldn't compensate for how in actual Fate South America's mostly not there, but I suppose you might be more familiar with settings there and it'd be a kind of distinction from the canon series?
idk lol

I'm having a bit of trouble with trying to do the NP stat xD I can tell that's going to be a bit harder for me. The rest of the stats for my Servants just need polishing so uh maybe they'll be shareable soon :').
And yeah, I'd love to see that!
I think that Mana (judging by seeing the average stats for classes lol) might be how much magical energy a Servant can use for output. Like, Casters have the highest stats there, and Servants with more powerful abilities such as Mana Burst seem to have that stat with a high ranking. In general what I've seen is pretty much that the more contact a Servant had with magic in their lifetime the higher the stat.
Oooh heheh I'm curious xD I'm always curious lol.
Offline
The NP making is gonna be what's hard for me lol, like for Kiaane,,, (*shudders*) xD I look forward to POVing them though since in GGaD they're not a hero
Tbh the stats should be left flexible since I have a fear of them coming into play in the worst ways possible
Okay, that's kinda what I had going for Wiley lol, rip his Mana stat then.
Here are Wiley (Archer)'s stats:
Strength: C
Agility: A
Luck: E
Endurance: EX
Mana: E
NP: EX
Like I said he fights like a snake probably lmiao and his stats are either good or horrible

For the location... uh I'm not sure lol I've been kinda thinking about that.
Maybe the "Earth" we're using is set in the Modern Sect for Forengard. I don't know exactly how that works,,, I don't even know xD but I also know that there are characters in the actual roleplay that do have existing nationalities and I don't know how that would be possible if a version of Earth doesn't exist.
I'm not good at explaining stuff but I agree with what you said on your post btw.
Lol the setting in South America xD you're to generous my dude.
Bruh though the first thing that crossed my mind was car traffic and mototaxis in the street sdkfjghsdlfkjgs
Offline
Bruh just realized how much I'll probably mess up and make my characters call Servants by their True Names when you're not supposed to do that
Maybe we should make it a habit of just POVing them as, like, "Archer says, 'Yadda yadda,'" rather than, "Wiley says, 'Yadda yadda.'"

Tbh nationalities don't seem to have a role in Forengard, which is kinda good because yay no ethnocentrism lol. Like do you mean for "existing nationalities" in the real world, like how Rai is Japanese-Chinese? I guess for that that's a greater issue of how the heck we'll go about determining fame lol, of the Heroic Spirits I mean.
Lol I wish I were generous xD
xDDDDD Wiley be like "Bruh I came out here to see what I can buy with a buck, not to go under a real life simulation of how it feels to be run over by a mototaxi"

NP making do be hard tho
Yeah I'm excited for Kiaane too xDDD I want to give them coffee lol.
Uh yeah yeah I definitely think that stats shouldn't completely influence everything in Servant battles xD they don't always play a role in the outcome, after all. Ngl though I fear any NPs that might have a luck check, because lol two of my Servants have Luck stats that aren't so good (Wiley should be glad he isn't the only Servant with E-rank Luck lol).
Oooh I see an EX-rank NP 👀 Haha though Archer Wiley seems like a pretty solid Servant! Let's see how Dion goes about using those stats.
Lol yes because this is like a Grail War xD I don't think True Names are supposed to be used just like that. Maybe in more personal interactions/settings the names could be used though. I guess it depends on the Servant/Master too.
This is fun but at some point it's going to turn to angst lol I fear.
Yeah nationalities don't xD. I was thinking more about how MJ has characters whose backstories actually include existing countries (like Britain and Korea) but in the end those don't matter much in the actual roleplaying.
Oh heck xD fame xD Idk how we're gonna do that. Actually, uh, are we going to do something similar to the setting in F/GO? I think that's what you were trying to say in your previous post. Having the "Medieval Sect" be the past in this AU and the Modern Sect be the present could make sense. And that way, it would be kinda easier to have fame be passed down by stories and stuff. It also could mean that there are certain areas of the world that aren't completely "modernized". Or idk. Idk if this makes sense xD.
Rip lol I don't think Dollar Stores exist in Peru xD and I wonder if they exist in other South American countries.
But like maybe we can have some liberty in the setting? Like, maybe it is in South America, but the currency and sites are not exactly as they are rn. So, y'know, so we can do stuff lol.
Btw I've been assuming that the Clocktower and the Mage's Association exist.
Offline
Btw number two xD what's the rank of Wiley's Independent Action?
Offline
It really do though ;-;
Yayyy coffee :0
Uhhh tbh I can't think of luck-check NPs and I don't think my characters will have any lol, but I can't say that with certainty. And for my Servants...well you can see Wiley has horrible luck lol.
You do see an EX-rank NP,,, xD yeah I wanna see too.
Tbh lowkey worried for plot already lol, like we have to coordinate chronology and plan and stuff,,, what is good plotting lol
Idk lol, how will the Servants know each other? Wiley's fame is very low actually lol, so I don't think anyone would know him, but,,, lol anyways in general idk how they'll know each other. I mean in actual Fate they were like "Oh holy heck you're the King of Knights of Britain" but here it's like "Oh yes you existed lol,,, my narrator doesn't know your mythology so I'll just be surprised :0000"
Tbh I'm kinda worried since unless we make a point of making pairs where for one you own the Servant and for the other I own the Servant, it might seem more like a story at times xDDD like if for a fighting pair the Masters both belong to one of us and both Servants belong to the other and it's like "ok lol"
Oh lol I didn't think of her since I didn't ever really RP with her. I guess I've always thought that existent countries don't exist in Forengard lol, the merits of every roleplayer having different interpretations ig.
I was mostly asking if we're doing an Earth like Forengard or actual Earth lol. I guess we could make a setting that's not developed much in-RP that's like South America even if we go with the first idea, though.
Wiley going out as a Heroic Spirit and begging a storekeeper to give him ice cream for a buck xDDDDD
I wasn't too sure about those, ig that depends on lore planning lol

Yvonne can make coffee hehe
Congratulations to my brain for reading "luck" as "lunch" and being extremely confused with a few sentences there xD.
Uh I'm pretty sure that Gáe Bolg is a luck-check NP for example, which is why in UBW Artoria literally "got lucky" and survived the attack. I dunno for mine yet lol I'm trying to set my ideas solid first, but I think I can say that I won't have any NPs of this category. Yay :D.
Dion be like *squints* and he goes :0 at the A+ Independent Action xD. But like really I'm interested here because like Wiley seems like a super efficient Servant with mana and that stuff, and even more because of that passive skill. Darn, he's going to be more OP since he'll be able to have a greater supply of energy xD.
Aah idk about plot xD but the bright side is that since it's an AU just between the two of us we can pause threads when we need to coordinate stuff and nobody will be affected :]. I guess that the summonings and maybe interactions would come first, though? Idk xD. Idk how to plot lol let's hope that by our combined efforts something good will come out.
I dunno really... at least for mine Youri and Germaine may (or may not) recognize each other from life.
Ok so I'll need to check about this exactly (just going by memory of what I read lol) but I'm pretty sure that Servants are equipped with enough knowledge from the Throne of Heroes to recognize other Servants when the NP name or certain traits are revealed. In any case, maybe we can cheat a bit here. Or not. Maybe nobody knows each other. I have no idea xD.
Bruh you're right tho xD This might be a problem since,,, I have four Masters and you only have three. Lol idk what we're going to do. Here's to hoping we'll figure something out.
Oh... I don't know. You mean Earth like Forengard as in that it's divided into sects and no specific countries? Or wdym,,, I'm sorry I'm bad at this y'know.
xD I think he may be able to get ice cream for a buck tho. Yay :DDD.
I've kinda had them in mind, since mages exist and stuff, but I haven't really done any solid ideas related to those.
Lol I'm 👀 about most Master-Servant relationships.
Offline
UwU lol I wonder if in this AU Kiaane likes ultra-sweet coffee instead of the bitter-as-heck coffee as dark and bitter as their soul
Yvonne and Kiaane do be so chill though lol
Tbh I'm wondering what'll happen if Helge and Akuma get in a fight,,, which'll be weird for the fight POVing things I mentioned before but lol
Ah yes, lunch-based NPs...EXX rank NPs. Truly one of a kind.
I've always felt like Gae Bolg has never been done a good service lol, I don't think casualty and luck cancel each other out. Whatever.
Tbh did Diarmuid ever use his NP??? I cannot recall it for some reason lol
Yeah Wiley's pretty efficient lol, but his strength is lacking lol. I can't imagine he would want to fight any other Servants at a disadvantageous situation since I'm presuming their stats other than endurance are likely much better than him oof.
Lol idk about general plot but I already want Akuma to die.
Yeah, but if history is wonked up for both "real world" and "Forengard-based world" settings, I'm not looking forward to seeing how our Servants will know each other xD
Maybe we can just have them pretend to know each other and we just come up with whatever the heck our minds come up with at the moment. Like maybe you dunno anything about Xuqiao's backstory but your Servant character goes "Oh yes the great general of the (*idk*) era, known for (*blah blah blah*)" xDDDD maybe that'd somehow help with development. Idk sometimes when I have to fit puzzle pieces I didn't account for in the puzzle great things actually come out lol, but that's for me personally when things work out.
Thinking about it though Akuma being with Marie kinda makes sense. It always seems like shady individuals are the ones with Assassin and Berserker Servants lol
Btw I think Akuma might pretend Marie was an accidental summon
More like Forengard-Earth with Earth-like places/components on them lol
Yay xDD
I feel like the fact that all of 'em are so young and seem to be knowing what they're getting into is important for lore...like in Zero Waver was the youngest maybe (idk Ryuunosuke's age but he didn't know what he was getting into) and arguably he didn't know what he was doing except for a potential ego boost. The rest, like Kiritsugu, Kayneth, Kirei, Kariya (bruh why was everyone's names starting with K lol), Tokiomi...they knew what they were getting into, and they were pretty old. And for F/SN, that was an exception since the War wasn't supposed to happen so quickly but the Fourth Holy Grail War screwed chronology up, so technically Rin and the others would've been older if things had gone the "correct" way, right? Anyways, yep. That's a point ig. Lol.
Lol sameee

Either kind of coffee will be fine xD Yvonne can do both. Hahaha I'm kinda picturing her getting lots of coffee just for Kiaane.
I think Assassin would rather not get into a direct fight with another Servant though lol. Though just going by stats I'm kind of worrying about how a battle between her and Germaine would turn out... uhhh... I guess I shouldn't worry about that though lol.
I have an EX-rank lunch-based NP B)
Yes, he does use his NP, because the effects his lance and spear have (cutting through mana and leaving unhealable wounds) are NPs. It's not a flashy-style NP though.
I guess that's where planning with the Master comes in xD to get the situation with the most advantage, right? The thing is that I guess most of the pairs will be doing that lol. It's dangeroussss.
Lol yes I wish to aid you in your mission to kill Akuma. Kinda sad for Marie but it's probably a good thing for her in the end.
xD I was kinda thinking that would be the most viable option. Sometimes improvised things come out pretty well! But now I'm hoping I don't mess up xDDD. Shall we leave the history timeline ambiguous then or are you proposing a specific thing?
That works and Marie would go along with it, as she would definitely obey orders (at least at first lol) but she also knows that it wasn't an accident so hmmmmm. Iirc Servants are aware of what relic was used to summon them.
Good point there. I was thinking about that too and I've yet to measure exactly how it affects my characters xD but thanks for the reminder.
I know that at least one of my Masters was prepared in advance for this Grail War though btw despite not having that much experience in the area, just information xD.
Maybe I'm excited a lot about Helge and Lancer? I friendship Hitan and Germaine a lot so xDDD idk.
I wonder if Helge has flowers of plants at his house. Germaine would be :D and the plants would also be :D.
Offline
One day Kiaane just clasps her hands together with theirs/his (idk their pronouns in this verse lol rip) and is like, with all "emotion" (seriousness), "If you participate in another Grail War, please summon me again. I will be glad to serve you." The reason is: Coffee xD
I'm guessing if they do fight it's probably Helge initiating the fight lol. And then ig both him and Germaine will have inner moral conflict when they find out Akuma, in fact, did not summon a dirt bag.
xD
Oh okay, I was guessing that was it lol.
The good thing is that Wiley can get a few days of wandering outside since I don't think Marie will be ordered to kill other Masters. Which I know is counterintuitive, but there will be reasons lol so dw, maybe.
Yeah, timelines should probably be left ambiguous, though if needed we can work out who came before whom.
Hmm, sometimes purposeful accidents can happen and seem completely like actual accidents. Idk, more planning is needed. Akuma's smart though, much smarter than I, so,,, idk lol. It depends on her relic probably
Depends on the purpose of the Grail War ig lol, like the purpose in canon was freaking messed up jfdifjsdof
xDD
I'm not sure atm, but he might have flowers/plants for practicing his magic (uh that sounds sinister but it's actually for good lol)

Dudeeee wouldn't it be fun if after this we can do F/GO dialogue while adding Servant-specific dialogue, like Kiaane talking about Germaine in My Room or something like that OwO OwO

Coffee is a very good reason xD.
Bruh of all possible Servants, Akuma just had to get one of Good alignment lol.
Lol this isn't really related but I'm proud of how my design for Assassin looks :3.
Yayyy Wiley gets his freedom! xD I was kinda wondering too if Dion would go with him in one or two occasions.
Ooh I'm curious about the reasons now xDDD. What's kinda interesting is that Marie wouldn't attack other Servants or even Masters as long as she isn't given an order to do that, so maybe we can have some interaction with that somehow lol.
Okay, so we'll figure out that if we need it xD.
Characters being smarter than the roleplayer is bruh. I suffer from that xD.
Marie's relic is (was?) a certain part of her outfit :3 kinda like a trademark I guess? Idk if that's the word lol hehe.
Oh yeah what is the purpose of this War? Getting a wish granted is definitely there, but I wonder if there's a secondary motive.
I hope Germaine being there won't mess up Helge's magic practice xD.
Ooooh 👀👀👀👀 now that would be really fun! Bruhhhhhhh I SO look forward to this now :DDD
Offline
Ah there's something I wanted to confirm. Servants can materialize their weapons at will, right? Like, they aren't always there? And they also have a limited number I think (except for Emiya lol he's an exception).
Also I don't know much about this version of Rensa so how do you think he'd act while summoned? I'm kinda wanting to know because we didn't discuss much about his relationship with Aereon.
Offline
While I was busy not responding I made Kiaane OP lmiao I'm so sorry
I mean, I think only Heroic Spirits are eligible, so...it's not like they could've gotten someone else even if they wanted to, which they don't.
Oh, that's cool! Lol I'll get to doing designs in 2030 probably
Ofc he can, if he puts his ego or something down and asks xD or else even if Wiley sees Dion wants to go with him he's gonna hightail out of there alone
Probably. xD
Well, depending on what part it was, maybe Akuma "found" it and it was in the general vicinity. They don't have any association to a family or anything like that, so technically it could've been completely be accident. They don't appear to know a lot of magic, either.
Yeah, we'll need to figure that out, lol.
She won't xD, unless she makes the plants die, which is so counter-intuitive that I can't even--xD
Sammmeee ikr xDDD
I think so, yeah. I'm going off of a few frames for Artoria at least lol. And I think that most Servant weapons don't crack in half all that easily, so yeah they're on limited weapons.
Lol Xuqiao is Rider with Sword
I think I can leave that particular question unanswered (sorry), but if Aereon needs a motive for summoning him (instead of a Servant with more brute strength) I can try to answer ig. EX-rank Mad Enhancement means that he's easier to control than Hercules though.

You mean more OP than they are already? xD
Lol
It's fine (I think,,,?) xD you know I'm really quick to begin doing designs and that kinda stuff. It makes up for my lack of skill with planning lol. Maybe I can show you my sketches (but only if you wanna see).
What if Dion asks him to go with him :thonk:
Lol we do "xD" too much xD
The question is how it was found I guess xD but it's a good possibility. I think it would work :3.
Hmmm I'm intrigued... I wanna know more about Akuma owo.
Lol okay rn I don't have any ideas for another motive but I'll let you know if I think of something. I doubt I will though .
Oh don't worry that won't happen xD I think you know that though lol.
Lol I really can't wait for the dialogue lines though xD it'll be so fun to read the lines asfkjghfslkgjfd because opinions and thoughts and-- xDDD I'm toooo excited lol.
Ok lol thanks. I was having some doubts because like especially for Corinne it wouldn't be very practical for her to go around with her weapons lol.
Riders are chosen because of mounts though right? I mean Astolfo had a sword and a lance thing too xD so... yeah. I'm curious about Xuqiao's mount :3
Okay, that's fine! And to that I can say that she wouldn't really want a Servant she can't control very well lol so maybe complete brute strength isn't what she was going for.

Bruh GGaD!Kiaane isn't that OP, I'm under the Wrath of the Mods after all
Lol I don't have the time to do that xD I'd love to do so though. Not to mention I'm horrible at designing tbh. I can see the sketches if you want me to see them; personally I hate showing sketches to others lol
Then Wiley be like "Sure" lol but only if Dion asks or tags along even without "permission"
We really do tho xD
Maybe where Akuma currently lives is where a mage lived before,,, keep in mind it might actually be the case where they moved into a place and the catalyst was actually there and they were like "Grail War? Hmm, interesting concept, I'll consider it." It's not a 100% scenario where in actuality they killed the mage with the catalyst or smthn like that. I guess the mage beforehand might've been ditzy and/or a noob lol, especially if Marie's stats are good/her fame is widespread.
The motive probably depends on lore lol, but for some reason most of the Masters don't strike me as people who're trying to reach the Root,,, what I'm REALLY trying to say is if they are then I'm heartbroken already lol
Bruhhh same lol and not even just opinions, in My Room sometimes they talk like the other is there and jfsdifjsofijfoisdfjo yessssss
Bruh what do you say xD if this AU ever ends and we're interested in it, we do a F/GO AU where you RP Gudako and I RP Gudao and these Servants are under them xDDDDD
I don't think Artoria drags around Excalibur with her lol, so Marie should be fine.
Lol you'll see what it is.
Yeah for Rensa it's more versatility lol he can be summoned under a lot of Classes. He's a pretty powerful Berserker though, just not the most powerful form he can be in. But if he were under other classes she probably wouldn't get along with him so lol there's also the moral matchup issue she hopefully put into consideration
