Fandom Fate/Drifters ooc

Umm if its alright with the GM and Idea Idea could I pm them what i was going to post?

Got a call this morning that my grandmother wasn't in very good condition and likely wasn't going to make it into tomorrow so family got together and drove down to say goodbye today. Not really feeling like writing much of anything at the moment honestly it was all kind of a shock. Don't want to leave my servant on hold either though.
 
On the bright side, I'm learning lots more to be a better gm for this rp.



What I get from this is any Servant can be summoned as long as they are "real" in the Fate world and the grail has the power to do so. So if an animal was "real" in the fate and had their lore embellished it would be fine. Just never done before. Because, it's really hard to say what's real and what's fictional when Frankenstein is considered real in the universe and Kojiro isn't. Then, at that point, isn't it the player that decides?

Not so much the player as the GM. Basically the rule of thumb is that any mythical or legendary being did actually exist and is real in fate. "Fictional" servants would be things like Master Chief from Halo, or Slenderman, or some OC the player made (even those can sometimes slide, but I'm not a fan of them). Essentially they have to be in the realm of "well, there's no proof they DIDN'T exist", but it ultimately comes down to the GM.

I don't know if re-distributing Kotomine his command seals after he lost counts as breaking rules are not (may very well be within the rules, since it's the grail that gets to decide), but it feels like it =P

But lol, yeah, I don't imagine it would on it's own. Caretakers have already been accusing each other of tampering with the grail.

The overseer takes on all the unused seals from past wars and redistributes them. The thing is the overseer is suppose to be a member of the church, not a magus, and thus not eligible to be a master. He's also suppose to be a neutral referee. So he was just abusing his position more than anything else. As far as the mechanics are concerned, as far as the grail's concerned, he's just another master with command seals. No different than if the Overseer offered command seals to kill a servant rampaging through the streets thus giving a master more than their original 3. The grail does't care how many command seals you have so long as you have some.

Medea's magic is from the Age of Gods so it certainly does have an element of existence even the regular grail wars. The concept of mystery is also based on the magic of the Age of Gods being stronger...and if it's a time where 'gods' existed, then yes, other mythical beings are free to exist as well. The thing is, the grail's power seems to be based on conceptualization. So the Age of Gods may very well just be a time period where people truly believed gods to be real. Hence the magic of true faith.

From what I see, it could go either way really. Though the fantasy lover in me does lean more to your side.


Mythical creatures did exist. They're called Phantasmal Beasts. Dragons, Chimera, etc etc they all did actually exist in Fate.

"Real" in the Fate Universe depends on whether the Age of Gods really existed...so it's not exactly simple. Kojiro is as believable to me as King Arthur is, yet he's fictional in Fate. King Arthur's lore has fairies in it...so fairies must've existed. If fairies existed, why not gods? Or mythical animals? In a world of magic, it's hard to tell which parts are embellishments and which parts are real. There's this whole root thing too. And counter guardians. Archer in stay is counter guardian, isn't he? =/

It's like I said, "Real" is basically if it's myth/legend/history, then it really existed. Kojiro is fictional because if you go and look up Sasaki Kojiro there's nothing. There was never a famous or mythical person. He didn't exist. As I said above it essentially works that all the famous people from legend actually did exist. All the mythical fables we know are based on real people who really did live.

As for the root, an counter guardians, don't worry about those. The root never comes into play in any Fate and Counter Guardians shouldn't really be allowed anyways.

I think I'd rather have an actual post to respond to. So in light of that, I do not mind waiting longer for a post from you, and you can rest assured that it is by my decision that we would be delayed, not by any fault of your own. Either way, either this will be something which you will be able to manage in a matter of a few days (as in get better quickly enough to get back into the swing of things) or you'd take a lot longer to get better anyway and so even making a response I would then just be waiting again.

So, again, because I would rather work with an actual post, I'll ask if it isn't too much trouble that I remain on hold until you feel better enough to get back to things.

I'm truly sorry for your loss and I wish you, and your family, the best.

Well... thankfully it was OOC chat and not RP... I've missed a couple pages of action before and that was horrible, 20 pages of Roleplay would of been a nightmare to navigate. T.T
Stupid goddess! Useless goddess! No free dragon ride 4 u >.<
