He lives...in a place...
Lol yes, that's what I was trying to remember xD. I knew I forgot to ask something.
So...what would be an ideal location?
Offline
Bruh.
Well, one with a forest. We love spooky forest scenes. Mostly it's because of Caster, though. The forest is probably on the outskirts. And I dunno if we're dealing with a city in an urban or suburban location.
Where Dion lives depends on his background. I don't actually know what the deal with his family is (lol for some reason that sounds so sassy to me) but maybe they have good residences. Or maybe they have good residences and then make Dion go rent an apartment while he's participating in the War idk.
Also we need to work out how the Masters will coordinate locations for Grail Wars, because we've implied there are many that happen in different places, unlike in F/SN where it happens in Fuyuki, where the families are.
It seems most of the participation, if not all, is coordinated, so yeah.
Btw, Ambryll is getting more development, so planning for them might have changed lol.

Yes forest.
Well, an urban city would probably have more buildings and people, right? More places for stuff to happen? The pros of a suburban city would maybe be more open spaces for the Servants to be in and Idk I think it would make it easier to keep the whole thing a secret? Idk I'm not sure. I'm used to urban cities though lol.
Although this isn't like, a completely defined thing, I was thinking that they probably rented a house for Dion so he could be in the location. He's probably been there for a couple months? The thing is that he's by himself in the War's location. Idk though maybe they bought a house instead of renting it lol.
Perhaps the Grail manifests in different places? So, maybe it's a thing of someone finding a location and then notifying possible participants. Or maybe it's just known to some.
Ooh, cool. If there's anything you think I should know, then tell me :3.

The thing about Fuyuki in F/SN too was that it had several locations for interesting things to happen (like, idk, the river, that temple thingy, a forest, and I think there's one more but I can't remember).

Einsbern castle

Oh yeah that one, I forgot the castle

And I'm used to suburban areas, yay.
Urban areas aren't as likely to have forests.
The Grail doesn't manifest until the penultimate battle, so it can be made certain that it won't be stolen lol Apocrypha. A possible case of it manifesting early, however, is to provide the Ruler with the ability to manifest when he didn't initially, which probably means crap is going down and it's not how it's supposed to go down

Well, if it's a city that's large enough, it can have a suburban area too. I mean, idk, what do you think?
I'm aware of that, but I meant more like maybe there's some kind of sign that shows in which area the War must take place?
Offline
I don't care if it's urban or suburban tbh, since Fuyuki could probably be considered to be both
I feel like it's a matter of choice though, since for instance, without the forest, Caster (who's moral...for once. Wow, look at all the immoral casters in Fate anime) doesn't have a high chance of victory, so Sunny actually tried to choose terrain that would be beneficial there. I don't think the gods care where the wars are being held

I don't know...I thought it would be nice to have a setting with places to use lol. Does the city we're using have a name? Will we name it?
Lol good, finally a Caster who's not evil .
Then you think the other Masters had a similar thought?
I was thinking Nyoko probably lives in the War's city.
Offline
Probably a good idea lol
Some of the Servants don't really need that much tactic, like Saber could charge right into the forest. Hopefully they don't though, that sounds scary, considering Sunny's camping there :-P. And Rider obviously does best in areas with open spaces (or else his class would be at a disadvantage), but he's fine just living with Nyoko for a bit. Hopefully Aereon reinforced her place so that Berserker can't destroy it unintentionally, and for Dion...well, maybe it's just the lab set-up, lol, but that's not completely beneficial to winning the Grail War
Helge is a foreigner to the country as a whole, but Ambryll's been there for a little bit.

Another thing I wonder about the city is if it's near a body of water?
Tbh in general just charging into another Servant's territory without an idea of what's going to be done isn't a good choice lol. My Servants also can work as needed, like, Lancer can go pretty much anywhere, and Assassin will do well as long as she isn't caught in an open area.
Both Yvonne and Aereon's families probably had an easy way to ensure housing (they probably already owned properties or something lol) so it might have just been a matter of moving. I'm not 100% sure.

Also just gonna note how it's funny how Sabers are supposed to be so straightforward but both them and their Master seem more content with chilling than running around the place
Lol
Kiaane, walking into Caster's forest in an ultra-casual way, coffee mug in one hand and sword in the other: Caster, I challenge thou to a Vibe Check (TM), do you accept

Not sure if there's a huge body of water, but both Rider and Berserker could potentially benefit if so. Maybe Saber too, I'm not 100% sure about that, though.
Archer likes water but not swimming in it during a fight lol, that is not good terrain for him.

Lol Yvonne should equip a CE like this on Saber for maximum effect

Offline
Challenge to a Vibe Check, oh my gosh xD
Never spill Saber's coffee or else...
Maybe there's a lake?
That's Saber's Bond 10 CE, you can't tell me otherwise.
Offline
Lol the Gold Saints become irked when their helmets are knocked off, but Saber becomes serious and intent on fighting with their best efforts when their coffee cup is knocked over and the coffee spills. It's actually a feat because they can otherwise duel with coffee cup in hand without spilling any coffee. In an alternate universe of the AU with more Servant classes they're some variation of a Coffee Class Servant. Joking btw, at least mostly joking.
Maybe.
It's actually me stealing Edmond Dantes' Valentine's gift to use as an example xD

Does that mean that, if they run out of coffee during a fight, they just go back to refill their cup
Ah yes, Meme and Coffee, the true Extra Classes.
I know but imagine something similar ;)
Offline
Saber: (*drops coffee, somehow not spilling it over themselves*)
Saber: I admire your abilities and will engage in a full fight with you. But please, allow me to go back and refill this drink.
Enemy Servant: (*agrees*)
Kiaane: (*just immediately has good impressions towards the other Servant and is impressed by their chivalry lol they have low standards, probably with some funny variation of a chibi expression of gratitude to boot*)
Yes.
So...coffee, yes.
I think we got distracted again LOL sorry xD
-Galaxian-
Offline
Chivalry = coffee
Coffee
Would you believe I didn't notice this was a distraction lol
Offline
coffee refill permission*
I totally would, 100%.
My bad though, I keep bringing them up lol
But I daresay the distractions are fun
-Galaxian-
Offline
Pfft xD, but it's true.
If we plan, I go along with it.
If we get distracted, I go along with it.
Why am I like this xDDD
Anyways, where were we?
Offline
I think we were on the topic of water and city planning
-Galaxian-
Offline
Ah yes!
Ok I suggested a lake
But more than a lake I was thinking of a park thingy lol
Also the city needs a name
Anything special for that?
Offline
Way for them to ruin a park xD you mean like a city park for walking and stuff, not for kids, right? Because modern kids 100% go to parks in the middle of the night
Btw are bystanders also supposed to be killed in this AU? Or nah? Seems grisly to me tbh
Nope. The AU isn't even named xD
-Galaxian-
Offline
Obviously not only for children, lol.
That's the original rule, but maybe we can change it? Maybe there's a way for them to not notice what's going on?
...do we have ideas for the AU name? Maybe you have something in mind? I don't yet.
Offline
I've always felt like killing a modern person is like a very good way of breaking the "Those of the past should not interfere in the present" rule
I dunno, probably should change it
My mind has an idea that it refuses to share :D

Okay but like look at this comparison
F/Z Lancer: (*shows chivalry, fights Caster with Saber while acting as her left hand, destroys one of his two weapons so she can use her NP*)
F/Z Saber: (*impressed, respects*)
Fate AU Lancer: (*lets Saber go refill coffee before they continue their fight*)
Fate AU Saber: (*impressed, amazed, admires*)
-Galaxian-
Offline
If it's like that, then there must be another way so we don't have to use the rule!
Maybe one day it will want to share lol

Lol sorry late post
