Character Appearance: Link 1 Link 2
Powers and Abilities:
Saber is a Heroic Spirit - the incarnation of a hero of myth and legend, brought back to a temporary life to help their summoner battle for the Holy Grail. As it is, all Heroic Spirits have certain traits, being beings of essentially pure magic. As a Heroic Spirit, Saber has the following traits:
* Immune to poison
* Mostly immune to attacks that are not infused with some sort of magic or caused by another Servant
* Superhumanly strong and fast
* Has a corporeal form and an invisible, incorporeal "spirit form" that allows them to walk through walls, be immune to harm, etc.
* Does not need to eat, sleep, or breathe (although lack of breathable air can potentially still kill them).
* Can self-heal to a certain extent, provided there is sufficient mana available.
Specific to Saber:
* Has the ability to ride almost any creature or vehicle
* Has an extreme resistance to hostile magic, although powerful or very ancient spells will still harm them.
* Has Manaburst: Water, which is an affinity for water and water-based magic, allowing them to use or summon water to use as a weapon in great magical torrents, as weel great splashes or pools to slow and bog down the enemy or otherwise harm, or as a defensive shield/tool.
* Possesses Amenomurakumo-no-Tsurugi, a holy sword capable of great power. In Saber's hands, it is capable of unleashing powerful attacks that can fell powerful monsters or even gods.
* Has Divine Water; this is a magic tool that is used to disguise the presence of Amenmurakumo-no-Tsurugi. If its magical energy is expended, it can be used to unleash torrents of enhanced water, as noted above.
* Possesses the technique Eight-Current Raging Storm. When used this, unleashes eight simultaneous strikes in a wide ranging (beam-like) area, with great power. It is highly destructive and likely to cause much collateral damage when unleashed. Houses and buildings caught in the blast will crumble and normal human beings are likely to perish. This (and Amenumurako-no-Tsurugi) are theirbig finishing moves.
Beyond his various magical abilities, Saber is also simply a skilled swordsperson, having a lifetime of experience in making war on the enemy's of his father. They are experienced in combat, as well as deception to a certain extent (having once pretended to be a maid in order to catch enemies unaware).
What Did Your Character Wish For? To once again have a friend to spend peaceful days with.
What Potion Did They Receive? Scarlet Potion
Did They Drink It? Yes.
If Yes, What Element/Animal? Water
Character Questions:
1. Who is the person your character is most bonded with from their canon? Or who is someone they miss the most?
There are two answers to this question; the first is that they bonded the most with Miyamoto Iori, their Master, in canon. Iori was their friend and master and they spend a great deal of time fighting alongside one another, bonding, enjoying food and exploring Edo alongside one another. Saber enjoyed almost all of their time with him and thought for a time that they had found someone they could share days of peace with.
The second is Ototachibana-hime, their former wife and lover from their time as a living person. She was able to understand their true desire for a peaceful existence and was able to draw out their kindness and sense of peace - but in the end, she sacrificed herself for them and ever since Saber has mourned her passing and has missed her dearly, hoping to one day see her again.
2. What are they most afraid of?
Saber, to a certain extent, fears being consumed by violence for violence's sake and being alone. They are a warrior and hero without peer, who conquered many enemies and even slew gods, but they do not enjoy violence for its own sake. They fight for the sake of being able to have a peace to enjoy afterward (sparring matches are another thing entirely). For much of their life they faced battle after battle, conflict after conflict, and by the end of it they were left alone, without friends or lover or even family. To be left once again utterly bereft of any kind of company, outcast because of battle and bloodshed - that is what they fear.
3. What is their weakness? Emotionally, mentally and physically?
On an amusing note, they have a weakness for food - they will happily eat almost anything and everything as long as its tasty and they can be tempted by it to a certain degree.
Emotionally, they have a sense of justice and a protective streak - threatening others or using hostages against them might be successful, as they do not necessarily want to harm people they care about. This isn't entirely true, as they initially wanted to use their destructive Noble Phantasm, despite the potential cost to innocent inhabitants, but they do have an overall sense of wanting to preserve the lives of the innocent and to protect those they care about. Manipulating this protectiveness is likely one of their key emotional weaknesses.
Physically, they don't have many weaknesses (mostly thanks to being a Servant and a skilled warrior); they do rely on a constant influx of mana to keep their abilities powered (and, were they in a Grail War, to keep themselves anchored and corporeal). Depriving them of mana / an influx of magic will mean they can't utilize their powerful abilities and will need to rely strictly on their skill with the sword.
4. What would make them happiest?
To live in peaceful times with a good friend / their wife. They want to explore the world and enjoy it. They want to sample good food, to see new things - that is their happiness. A simple one, but one that is still something they desire.
5. What do you want out of your character in this setting?
I am hoping to explore their protective streak and their desire to explore new places and see new things; I'd like a chance for them to be a bit of a big damn hero now and again, as well as just get into hijinks as they try to figure out strange devices, new magic, and how they fit into all of it.
