Sounds like fun, especially since I'm watching the series right now (on episode 17). I'll probably participate after finishing the series so for now you get a "good luck" from me

I nominate myself as a lancer type servant

My true I identity is Skullreken I was the immortal guardian of the gate to the after life I was frustrated by not being granted the power and status of a God but kept my feelings to myself until a silver tonged warrior by the name of Uriah told me that he was the true king of the Gods and my true calling was to be Guardian of the earth. Charmed by him I allowed him to enter the higher plains and decided to answer my true calling by taking over the world of the living, using my powers of necromancy to summon an undead army to fight for me. I nearly succeeded but in the final battle I was struck by an arrow tipped with a shard of the ever stone. The stone had the power to bestow immortality on mortals but had the effect of making me mortal. I aged rapidly and was beheaded by Oshin Chieftain of the Celtic tribes.

When I entered the Spirit realm I found everything had been lain to waste and many of the Gods had been slain by Uriah! For my sins the last remaining Gods cast me into the netherworld to be eaten by the unholy beasts that lived there. My 5000 year battle for survival there against beasts which should have easily destroyed me has helped me hone my battle skills and become one of the greatest warriors ever. With the high plain laid in ruin it is no longer a paradise to reward people for their good deeds in life and more so a second Hell where they are tormented and persecuted by the spirits of the wicked who have not been sent to nether world because there is no Guardian to forbid they're entrance. Not only that but they are free to leave the afterlife and torment the living and inflict their evil on the the world.

I truly regret what I have done it is my hope to use the Grail to restore my position as guardian to the gates afterlife so that I may expel all the evil spirits to the nether world and restore the afterlife to the peaceful paradise it once was.

Although my class is the most agile I have sacrificed some of my agility to be able to put more power in my attacks the lance I wield has a heavy serrated blade designed to be used for hacking and slashing more than thrusting. My back ground in magic allows me to use minor offensive and defensive spells I can charge energy in my blade and unleash it with a slashing motion that creates a arc of light that travels forward cutting what it comes in contact with I can also "fade" into the netherworld for a short time which makes me transparent and ghost like until I reemerge using it saps stamina and manna so I cant use it as often as I like but when timed well it can be a very effective move for avoiding death or turning the tables such as luring an opponent into a trap and escaping unharmed. (I could have been a Caster but I prefer the physical side of battle)

My noble phantasms are called Meteor Strike I store as much of my energy as possible in my blade before leaping into the air. and unleashing it into the ground causing a small explosion and shock wave.
My second one is a suicidal phantasm called bloody rain in order to use this I must forgo using magic in the battle this is because I channel all of my manna into a blood red ball of energy in the sky once it is complete I cast my lance into it an retreat to the nether world this causes the ball to explode and rain fire and explosions to the ground below. This is a trump card that I would rather not use unless it had been carefully been planed with my master before hand or if I were forced to do it by a command spell

Spoiler

I stand ready to serve any master who wishes to summon me

Brilliant thread Skull! And of course you know who I'd have to go for =P
I'd be an Archer class servant. My Archer would be Anubis, the Egyptian Guardian of the dead. Anubis is of course of Egyptian descent fighting with a scimitar or bow. Legends say that Anubis was given Osiris' organs when the God of the Underworld.
Anubis wields a Golden Bow rumored to be given to him by Ra the sun God which is called the "Bow of Scorching." His scimitar has been infused with the organs of Osiris and can leech another Servant or Master's mana earning it the name "Sword of the Soul Eater."

Noble Phantasm->"Cursed Soul Shot" in which an arrow would be fired causing severe damage, cursing my enemy for eternity, and having them slowly bleed to death.

Noble Phantasm Variant-> "Eternal Shot" can only be used against airborne targets and is simply an extremely mana-depleting shot.

Noble Phantasm->"Judgment of Anubis" can only be used against a Master. It judges the Master's soul and forces them to either deal with their insecurities or perish with their sins.

Also I might point out that my servant is not a hero but more of a guardian spirit. Also instead of changing to spirit form and being invisible, Anubis simply changes into a big black wolf/dog.

Unlike most heroic souls that have been summoned before, Anubis is actually a rather friendly (and at times clumsy) Servant. Also he holds human like above all else and will not take the life of an innocent unless a command spell is used.

History speaks of the Servant Anubis/Archer having been summoned in one of the first Grail Wars and chose to kill his own master instead of letting the enemy kill her. Yes, Archer had fallen in love with his Master, but the corruption and destruction of the Grail War forced him to take her life instead of letting another unnamed Servant torture her. It's said that even as his Master laid dying in his arms, the Servant Archer (as he himself began to disappear) took down several opposing Servants and unleashed all his Noble Phantasms as vengeance.

A catalyst is required to summon me or you must summon me by traveling to the Egyptian ruins.

Spoiler

After Archer's battle with Ra, Anubis can now use Ra's Reality Marble "Unparalleled Underworld" and has access to his Lost Phantasm, "The First Sarcophagus." BUT! He can only use the Reality Marble and Lost Phantasm in Dark Archer form. The First Sarcophagus is the first part of 4 steps. Once the final Sarcophagus is called upon, Archer will die and Dark Archer will permanently take his spot *note*-> That is NOT a good thing xD

Ill be a god damn Berserker who has both agility and strength...
My identity is Uriah, I was one of the few gods who survived the final clash of giants and gods in teh great battle of ragnarok. Im a direct relative of the king and gods of gods Odin. My mother was one of the Valkyries Eir, the goddess of Healing. my father was a minor god related to Odin. A warrior of the great Hall Valhalla. I was born with unatural strength and agility and to add to that I have a twisted personality that the wise King Odin forseen. He had tried to kill me when I was but a baby, but my mother disobeyed she even asked, although secretly all the living beings and the non to not to harm me in any way, like Baldir who was immune to all has but one weakness. Eir my mother forgot to ask one particular thing that can slay me even with a touch by it. To ensure my safety in the world below she, an accomplished herbswoman and a great healer has put the forbidden fruit of the Yggsdrassil tree, in this way it allows my body to heal in an almost absurd way. I can be killed of course but it will be very hard.
I have learned not the way of magic but in strength. My body hard as it is with the ancient protective skills that my mother has invoked can withstand extreme offensive magic attacks, it can endure the harshest of weather and the sharpest of blades.
In my stay in earth (Midgard) I have learned of my true identity.
My skills in sword has earned me quite a reputable record. I have been able to defeat the finest warriors in earth. with no one left to challenge I decided to partake another quest which involves challenging giants and gods. I have no intention on who would win in the decisive battle of ragnarok I wanted to be there- to test my strength.
the journey seeking the battleground in which the final clash would happen brought me to the prison of Loki te god of mischief who had tricked the blind god to slay Baldir. At first glance the god seemed to know me I was perplexed at first but curiosity took me in. I listend to his story and learn my true identity. He then revealed that he was one who had helped my mother who tried to smuggle me out of Asgard to earth. He knew everything about me and even my weakness..... My twisted mind took its toll i was afraid that he like the other gods who were involve knew what might be my weakness, I decided to kill him there on the spot chopping off his head along with the serpent who eternally tormented him with its posionus fangs.
I then arrived at the battlefield, it was fortunate that I was on the side of the gods if it werent the giants would have won ragnarok. However in the tales and legend it was said that it was the wolf Fenrir who killed odin the truth was this I killed Fenrir and saved the King of gods but after that I killed him after as it was he who had ordered my death.
I lay the body of Fenrir and odin together as to let the surviving gods know that their ruler died in battle....
i then seek my mother who knows, the gods and goddess invovle in my escape however im not there to pay my thanks to them but to visit them and kill them so that no one would know what might be my weakness is hahahah
my noble phantasm is called Blade of the darkness Flame. after the battle i went to hell do battle demons as there were no more gods left to fight. I have acquired the blade killing of Azaroth one of the general demons. Its attribute is simple but deadly. It covers the whole area in darkness but it magnifies my strength 100x signifying the 100 demon generals that i have killed with it

my normal armour when im not using my noble phantasm


If i were to summon my noble phantasm my armour would change into this with a matching shield =D

[biganimefan]

we have so many servants here.... we need masters to control us! anyone be a good one and becoma a master, i want myself to be servant, but if nobody becomes a master, i will have to step up, as i'm only creating my own servant and master type atm.

[mat67846]

Oooh Biganimefan I wants to be your Servant XD

[de-kun]

well. i'm still thinking on my background....so soon i'll tell you guys if im a master or a servant..like biganimefan said, i'll make both so if there were no masters i'll be one....

[skullreken]

okay so far the positions of Lancer, Archer and Berserker have been claimed
We still need a Caster an Assassin a Rider and a Saber we also need masters come on people get your nominations in

@ Bar unfortunately you cant have Odin's steed only rider class can control divine beasts because it is in a berserker's nature to go mad in the heat of battle this also makes them incapable of using magic spells etc this however is compensated with their uber strength and defense

also guys feel free to expand your biography's ultimately these will be the deciding factors for the voters
also if you wish to cosplay your characters like I did go ahead ;)

[Barzillal]

k thats fine with me lol Ill just have odin's power and strength bwahahah
