Legend
Scathach ("the shadowy one"), is a warrior queen and mistress of a school for young
warriors. The school was located in the land of shadows off the cost of Scotland and
students travelled from all over the Gaelic world to learn from her. Gaining her tuition
was not an easy task, prospective students faced many trials to reach her, such as
crossing plain or razor sharp grass that pierced the feet of those who stepped on it and
an enchanted bridge that tried to cast all who stepped on it to their death
She initiated young men into the arts of war, as well as giving them the"friendship of
her thighs", (she taught them how to have sex). She had magical abilities and the
gift of foresight which she used to tell her student Cuchulain of the hardship that lay
ahead of him she also foresaw that his best friend/foster brother and fellow pupil Ferdiad
would die by his hand. She was the original master of the Gae Bolg and as Cuchullain
impressed her when she lead her students to war against her rival Aoife she made
him her protégé, gifted the spear to him and thought him to use it in order to set him
apart from his fellow students
In some sects of the Druidic religion some believe that she ascended after her death
and became the Goddess of the dead who acts as a Valkyrie guiding the soles of
the dead to Tír na nÓg the land of eternal youth.
Personality
There are 3 faces of Scathach as a teacher carries herself with dignity and a quiet
reserve she is strict and harsh teacher and demands hard work from her students and
and a strong will to achieves perfection in the techniques she teaches although it
doesn't show she cares deeply for her students seeing her strict methods as a way of
insuring that they don't get killed in battle if needs be she will protect her students
with a mothers instinct.
Teaching role aside she is an avid socialite enjoying music and parties she and is also
described as a nymph for her behaviour towards men and the "advanced" lessons she
gives her males students to initiate them into man hood
As a warrior she follows a strict code of honour and values a fair fight she will avoid
underhanded tactics such as holding people hostage and she would rather meet her
opponent face to face instead of setting up an ambush or a sneak attack however,
she will take such actions if commanded to by her master or if her opponent uses such
tactics first
Catalyst
Scathachs summoning is brought about by a Master trying to use an ordinary spear to
cause the summoning of a random lancer through simple association with pole arms.
On it's own this will not work but, if a shadow is cast across the summoning circle during
the ritual it gains an element of true association and becomes a summoning ritual for
Scathach. A dark mist will rise from the shadow filling the summoning circle and when it
dissipate it will reveal Scahtach
Abilities
Knowledge of Foremost Harmony
A special ability that prevents reduction of the effectiveness of an attack, no matter
how many times it is used on the same opponent. As a master of the martial arts
Scathach has learned to add minute variations to her attacks each time she uses
them so they cannot be recognised as the same attack .
Eye of the Mind (True)
The ability to effectuate rapid and precise judgements gained through experience and
training. Scathach is capable of calmly analysing situations even during a battle,
applying strategy and skills to turn the tables in her favour. As long as there is at least
a 1% chance of victory, she is able to devise a plan to exploit that possibility.
Magic Resistance Rank: B
Nullifies all magic that requires less than three verses. Cannot block large-scale magic
such as great magic or ritual magic.
Rune Magic
only servants of Celtic or Scandinavian origin may use this skill it is the
same skill that masters can use were symbols are inscribed and
automatically activates a spell accordingly with the meaning that they
represent however for servants the effects are more potent as their
skills were learned at a time before Rune magic fell into decline amongst
Magi
Clairvoyance Rank: A
Enhanced visual perception. At this rank, Scathach is capable of seeing targets at the
very least as far as 4 km and is able to keep track of bodies moving at enormous speed.
This also allows her to glimpse things that are yet to come
Protection from arrows
This is an ability that lancer are adept at it gives Improved defence
against ranged attacks due to accurate prediction of its trajectory by
extraordinary means such as hearing the sound of the projectile cutting
the wind or feeling the enemy's killing intent. As long as the shooter is
within his field of vision, the lancer can track down the shot with his
eyes and defend against it. This does not apply to attacks from super
long range or that have a large area-of-effect.
Nobel Phantasms Shadow shroud - Support rank: N/A
By twirling the Gae Bolg she creates a shadowy veil that masks her movements making it
harder to judge where her attacks are going to strike
Gae Bolg the spear of striking death flight - Anti-Fort. Rank A
This technique is how gae bolg is supposed to be used utilizing the full potential of
Gáe Bolg's curse, converting Mana into energy and releasing the accumulated power
impact after the spear is hurled, it puts greater emphasis on raw power and has a
wider area of impact, similar in concept to detonating an explosive device like missile
Gae Bolg 30 agonies - Anti Unit Rank: B
This is the true form of Gae Bolgs Curse the spear was carved from the bone of a sea
monster giving it abnormal abilities such as the one used in this phantasm, were Cuchullain
modified it to ensure it always found a way to it's targets heart although a high degree of
luck could thwart this allowing the victim to come away with a just a serious wound and
no instant death Scahtach's method ensures that the attack while less accurate will
always be fatal once it penetrates the target Calling the word Gae initiates the curse
allowing it to pierce any armour once it is lodged in the target calling Bolg evokes the
curse causing 30 barbs to grow from the spear tip and rip the victim apart I the spear
doesn't enter the target evoking the word Bolg can make the bards extend and stab the
target if it is in close proximity
