The Sect system is the "founding Three Masters" prepared for the Holy Grail War, and used the heroes to summon and serve the followers. As a result, the summoned heroes cooperated with the Lord and fought with other followers. And the Great Holy Grail will eventually use the phenomenon of the soul of the dead follower to return to the "Hero Spirit Seat" to fix the "holes outside the world" used to reach the root; this is the whole picture of the servant system. However, in the Holy Grail War so far, the holes used to reach the root have never been opened once. There are certain unexpected and failures every time. The two hundred years of history of the Holy Grail War cannot be said to be particularly long from the perspective of magic. In short, the Holy Grail War still has many problems that need to be solved. It is a metaphor for making a computer system like a beta version. Here, the follower system will explain the summoning methods and abilities of the followers.

Keywords for the slave system

To understand the system of the servant, you must understand the various statuses held by the servant. Their statuses include "original heroes" such as treasures and skills, as well as "unique servants" such as ranks and rank abilities. Here we will list specific examples of statuses held by the servants, and briefly explain what it is.

Class [class]

When summoning heroes, the servant system will apply the prepared duties (framework) to the heroes. This duties are ranks, including saber, lancer, caster, etc. Originally, heroes have no ranks, which can be said to be unique to the servants.

Treasure tool

The strongest armament held by the heroic spirit is the weapon mentioned in the legend of the heroic spirit, and has the same performance as the legend. For example, as King Arthur's fifth Holy Grail War, Saber, possesses excalibur as a treasure. The treasure is not only a weapon, but also a shield, decoration, and a move itself.

Status [status]

The performance of the heroes summoned as servants will be expressed through the rule-based evaluation of "status". The performance becomes comparable through the expression of "gluten force:b" or "magic force:a".

Skill[skill]

The abilities held by heroes. From natural abilities such as divinity and leadership to skills learned from magic and mind, there are various skills. Among them, there are skills that have treasure-level effects like Kojiro's Yan Hui.

Job rank ability

It has nothing to do with the abilities of the heroes themselves, and the skills granted to the servants of each rank are granted. For example, saber is for magic and riding, while berserker is for madness and deciding the skills granted according to the rank.

The difference between heroic spirit and servant

The hero is the existence of a hero whose great achievements remained as legends after death and has become the object of faith. Usually, the hero is summoned by the world as a power to protect humans; and what humans call is the servant. That being said, the hero is not an existence that humans can control, and if humans want to summon, they must use the Holy Grail or something similar to it. In addition, the servant system of the Dongmu is used to summon the heroic spirit with the power of the Great Holy Grail. The heroic spirit summoned as the servant is a "clip" made of the intelligence of the heroic spirit, a copy-like thing.

The Birth of a Hero

Although it has been shown that heroes are transformed into heroes who gather faith after death, even if they do not, heroes of myths and legends will be born by gathering faith. In addition, there are people who have signed certain contracts with the world during their lifetime to become heroes after death at the cost. In the Fifth Holy Grail War, Hassan Sabach was the actual heroes; Heglis and Medusa were the legendary heroes; emiya and Artoria became (in the future) heroes.

The existence who became a heroic spirit will be freed from the constraints of time and move to the seat of the heroic spirit located outside the world.

(Translator's note: Can you explain in one sentence whether the mythical heroic spirit exists? Mushroom Lord...)

The summons of heroes

Heroes are existences separated from the timeline. They will be summoned to all ages, whether in the past or the future. However, only the "world" can be summoned. Humans are unfortunately unable to summon heroes, but can only summon followers as clones. By the way, the information (soul) that constitutes the followers will return to the hand of the original body while the followers die. The original body can know the followers' actions in a recorded way like reading books.

The call of the servant

First, the Lord of the Lord held a ceremony to interfere with the Great Holy Grail. The Lord of the Great Holy Grail borrowed its intelligence from the original body of the heroic spirit located in the throne of the Hero. The heroic spirit clone produced by injecting these information (the soul of the highest purity of the heroic spirit) into the framework of the "ranking" is the servant. Because the servant is an unstable existence that should not exist in the world, the Lord of the Lord must be based on the Lord of the Lord and fix the coordinates for the world. The Lord of the Lord will also serve as the serve of the servants to provide magic power.

During the ceremony, a catalyst that is destined to be with the heroic spirits you want to summon can be designated by this. Without the catalyst, a heroic spirit with good qualities with the Lord will be summoned. If a catalyst corresponding to multiple heroic spirits (for example: the Troy City Gate, a symbol of the Trojan War), a heroic spirit with good qualities with the Lord will be selected from the candidates.

1: The Lord's Summoning Rite

Since the summoning itself is the Great Holy Grail, the Lord does not need to hold such a large-scale ceremony. However, if you want to push the battle to the advantageous side, you must prepare the catalyst and carefully choose the summoned heroic spirits.

Catalyst list

Artoria (King Arthur) Avalon (Sheaven of the Holy Sword). The catalyst to summon King Arthur in the fourth and fifth Holy Grail Wars.

Kuchurin is engraved with the original Lune rune written by Kuchurin. It is processed into earrings.

Emiya Tosaka Rin's gem is a rare example of the catastrophe that the Hei Lingfang has a fate with the Lord.

The fossil of the skin shed by the first peeling snake in the world of Gilgamesh refers to the snake that stole Gilgamesh's immortal medicine.

Medusa's mirror excavated in the temple of Etruria is equivalent to an object that is destined to be with the ancient Greek Goddess of Earth.

Medea exists in Korkis (the east coast of the Black Sea. It is Medea's mother country in Greek mythology).

Sasaki Kojiro Sasaki's mountain gate. From this catalyst, assassin was a martial artist who had a connection with the Riodou Temple during his lifetime.

Hassan Sabach Hassan is the etymology of assassin. The rank of assassin itself has become the catalyst for summoning Hassan.

The cornerstone of the Temple of Hecrys. It is basically a simple stone tool, but after summoning, it is swung as an axe and sword, and used it as a weapon.

2: The Great Holy Grail makes heroic spirits appear

The Great Holy Grail uses the magic stored inside to create a servant as a clone of heroes. The servant will become an existence that is forced to perform absolute obedience by the mantra engraved on the Lord while presenting the world.

3: Supply magic to the servants

While summoning, the path [path] of the Lord and the Slave will be opened, and the Lord will provide magic to the Slave. Due to the existence of this path, both parties can understand each other's place and situation to a certain extent.

Anti-hero for the aftermath of the riot? Guardian

The so-called guardian is a heroic spirit used as a suppression force. After the main cause of destruction of the world is generated, the guardian will be summoned by the world and annihilate the main cause. The main cause of destruction of the world is humans. After the guardian appears, he will kill all the people related to the main cause of destruction of the world to protect all other humans. Because of the weak human beliefs, heroic spirits will be classified as guardians, and those who become heroic spirits will easily become guardians.

Anti-hero is the person who is hated by others to save humanity in the consequences. He uses "evil" to clarify "good" and the guardian is also included in the anti-hero. Pure anti-hero does not exist, and those who are "evil and do good" will also be regarded as anti-heroes.

emiya

Emiya is the future Shirou Emiya exchanged the miracle of "rescuing the lives of hundreds of people who cannot be saved before his eyes" and signed a contract with the world to become a hero. Because he was not originally called a hero, he did not gather in faith after his death, and as a guardian, he continued to kill as not expected.

The status of the servant

The servant can represent performance as status. It includes gluten strength and durability, such as ability values, as well as rank abilities, skills and treasures. Each item will be covered with a level [rank] that follows the parameter rules, making the comparison of each item feasible. By confirming the gap with other servants, the characteristics of the servant can be grasped.

However, this comparison is ultimately a reference value obtained by extracting the project separately and is not suitable for practical combat combining various elements. Depending on the situation, Artoria of "Agile:c" can also act more agile than Couchurin of "Agile:a".

Artoria's status interface. In addition to the Lord and real name, gender and height are also included in the status. Hiding your status from the enemy and then investigating the enemy's status is the routine of fighting between servants.

property

The status that clearly expresses the spiritual nature of the servant. It shows that they focus on the combination of policies and personalities, with the emphasis on the principles: "order, neutrality, chaos"; while the personality has three types: "good, moderate, and evil". It is different from the attributes of fire and wind held by the magician.

Although inconsistent personalities will not cause major conflicts, if the policy is different, it will be difficult to adjust the opinions of the followers. The policy is the orderly Artoria and the chaos Gilgamesh. Even if the character is equally good, their opinions often differ.

Ability value

The six types of statuses, muscle strength, durability, agility, magic, luck and treasures, are collectively called ability values. Each ability value has a level, so you can understand the area of ​​the person who is good at and is not good at. The levels are basically divided into a~e, a is the highest ability and e is the lowest. For example, Medusa, who is "Agility: a" and "Lucky: e", can know that she is agile but has extremely poor luck.

The strength of muscles and physical strength.

How much damage can it bear if it is durable?

Agility, speed of reaction.

How much magic can magic be manipulated?

Lucky luck and bad luck.

The strength of the treasure that the treasure possesses.

Parameterrule

The status level represents the rule. A~e.ex is a sub-grid, which means that it is so strong that there is no meaning of comparison. If the value is used to represent the level, e=10, as the level increases, +10. A+ and b+ and other + can double the value in an instant. For example, c+(30) can only surge to 60 in an instant, exceeding the level a(50). ++ is also three times.

The elements of status

The elements of the status of the follower are land, popularity and the magic of the Lord. Land and popularity refer to the closer to the land (cultural circle) of the hero on the legendary stage, the more famous it is, the stronger it is. The "power" mentioned here is that the strength and equipment are closer to the meaning of the legend. Benefiting from this, new treasures may be added. If Kuchulin was summoned in his homeland Ulster, a castle, a chariot, a sleepless guard, etc. Also, when the Lord's magic is strong, the servant will also be close to the strength described by the legend.

The magic power of the Lord gives the status. Simple and easy-to-understand examples are Artoria, who once became the servant of many Lords. When Shirou, whose magic path is not smooth, her ability is not enough to be called the best servant.

When Kiritsugu is the Lord of the Lord, his performance increases. Fortunately, he declined because even Kiritsugu is insufficient in magic power and is affected by the way of survival. When Rin is the Lord of the Lord, he is not affected by the Lord of the Lord and has his original performance.

(Translator's note: Which is the original performance of the durability b, which is lower than Kiritsugu, is the highest level...)

Job rank

The rank refers to the container prepared in the present world to summon heroes as followers.

The ranks are basically divided into seven types: saber, lancer, archer, rider, caster, assassin and berserker. Because the ranks are not allowed to be repeated, all the seven followers participated in a Holy Grail War were different.

The heroic spirit determines the rank that matches the rank according to its characteristics, and is then summoned as the servant of the corresponding rank. For example, the only rank that Artoria meets is Saber, while Hecrys, who is proficient in all weapons in the legend, can become all basic ranks except caster. Which rank the heroic spirit will become is determined by the identity of the lord and himself. However, the Einzberen family, who is the "founding three families" and is familiar with the rules of the lord system, premeditatedly interferes with the system and summons Hecrys as berserker.

In the ranks, saber, lancer and archer are also called the Three Knights. Most of them are heroic spirits of the gods with a large amount of magic. Therefore, they are extremely powerful against magic, and modern magicians cannot hurt them at all.

The assassin rank is special, and the only heroic spirits that meet the conditions in history is Hassan Sabach.

(Translator's note: Mushroom likes conflicts very much. I also want to say that Uncle B meets the full-time class outside the caster, and that only Hassan meets the assassin)

Saber

The Knight of the Sword. The heroes that match the heroes naturally have legends that match the Knight of the Sword, and also require the ability value other than magic to be at the highest level. The rank ability is for magic and riding. In addition, most of the heroes that match the heroes have excellent instant attack power.

lancer

The Knight of Gun. The harsh qualities are second only to Saber. Their abilities must be excellent, and especially their agility is high. Naturally, they are good at using the range and speed of the shooting to escape the tactics. They include many heroes from knights.

archer

The Knight of the Bow. The rank with the strength of the treasure is not the level of ability, but has powerful shooting weapons or special abilities related to shooting weapons. As a scout, he is also very adaptable. In addition to having magic power as a knight, he also has the ability to act alone.

rider

Riding soldiers. Heroes with legendary geniuses that have a connection with certain riding objects (not only creatures) are in line with this rank. Although their ability values ​​tend to be lower than those of the three knights, this can be remedied with the performance of the mount described in the legend. In addition to magic, the rank abilities also have very high-level riding.

caster

Magicians. Only the magic ability value reaches the highest level when meeting the conditions. Due to their characteristics, the combat ability of the heroes who meet the conditions is relatively low. Moreover, most servants have the skills of magic ranks, so they are rated as the weakest rank.

assassin

The only heroic spirit that matches the assassination is Hassan Sabach of all generations, who will summon one of them. All members have no brilliant legends as heroes, so their ability values ​​are low. The rank ability is a breath blocking, and the fighting method that uses this ability will become a lifeline.

berserker

Berserker. Heroes who were crazy in battle were in line with this rank. Usually, the servants were able to play the performance of the original hero spirit in an ideal state. However, "crazy" would in exchange for depriving reason to strengthen the performance of the servants beyond the hero spirit. It was originally a rank that strengthened the weak hero spirit.
