THE FGO MEME
(aka the "I want to play in Fateverse but every time i try and keep the holy grail war rules straight in my head i just burst into tears" meme)

OPTIONS:

1. THE LAST MASTER OF CHALDEA!!!! listen, someone needs to be Gudako around here
2. Have your character summoned as a Heroic Spirit!!! You can either AU them as a specific mythological figure OR if you can fudge it, have your character themselves summoned as a Heroic Spirit! HOW EXCITING.
3. MAYBE A DEMI-SERVANT?? fgo isn't complete without kouhai

PROMPT IDEAS:

1. SLICE OF LIFE BULLSHIT IN CHALDEA. honestly keeping up with the chaldeans is a hit sitcom waiting to happen as it is.
2. SINGULARITY SHENANIGANS!! there's like, seven of them, go hog wild and have some adventures
3. oh i didn't think up enough to fill out this list. OH WELL.

THE LONG AND THE SHORT VERSION IS:

- Post a toplevel with the AU deets of your character and whatever you're hankering to play
- Tag around
- HAVE A GOOD TIME

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ when you've already got a fate/au writeup post just for memes like this

tl;dr Avenger, but having too much fun with the "living well is the best revenge" philosophy to actively edgelord most of the time. cheerful prankster who likes bullying people. can also be summoned as a Caster (less mean/trolly but also more distant) or a Berserker (her Madness Enhancement involves the compulsion to disobey/self-sabotage regardless of how well she likes her master, though, so...)

or she can be a master, I'm flexible and down for just about anything :3c I'd love to play her off of other Avengers/"monsters" though!!! ]

Ardyn Izunia | Final Fantasy XV

[scourgingstars]

[frankly he qualifies for everything but mostly avenger or a strangely lucid berserker. ruler for prologue version if that's your thing.]

Hibiki Kuze | devil survivor 2: record breaker

[shinetagonist]

[Can make a very good Master, but if you're in the mood for Servant hijinks can be summoned as a Rider or Caster - unless you wanna go Administrator ending then you get Ruler or Foreigner.]

master, singularity

[emberserker]

[The Servant assigned to you just got you out of a scrape (although listening to her give a speech about her abilities like some kind of Bond villain monologue every time she's winning is probably starting to get old), but as she turns around with a huff, she still doesn't look happy. It's probably just the Berserker class.]

Ugh, all there are around here are low-level enemies! We have an objective, don't we?! Why haven't they shown their face?

Bryn Pendragon | OC

[draconite]

[ Probably no good as a Master, but if you summon her, you'll get a pretty good Lancer on your side, or mostly lucid Berserker. Or if you want to go full Tragic Bad End you can summon her as an Avenger who can't talk at all and is literally just here to kill things and be sad.

Lancer/Berserker True Name is Brynhilde Pendragon, Avenger True Name is Wagner. ]

let's go wiiiiiiiith lancer and sol

[bigcore]

Do not steal.

[Generally, Foreigners aren't supposed to make sense, right? At least that's what the overall consensus is for why this one is constantly spouting non sequiturs and speaks in a weirdly disaffected tone. She's also got... a camera? She probably picked it up somewhere, but either way, she's aiming it at Bryn.]

Your eye is left and my eye is right. Does that mean we make up a whole face?

Yuri | Doki Doki Literature Club

[impurifies]

[ Guess what this one CAN be a Master. Honestly Master Yuri is just... canon Yuri... but ported into FGO. Honestly, she's probably kind of diggin it a little.

Servant is way more fun though!!! Instead of being summoned as herself, she's summoned as Persephone. You get three variants with this cos it's my meme and I do what I want.

Kore who's a Caster and basically Persephone Lily, who's in line with Yuri's canon personality. She's much more on the support side of things and her powers revolve around healing and buffing.

Persephone who's a Rider. Still pretty in line with canon Yuri's personality but more confident since she's yknow goddess of the Underworld.

Then there's Ruler Class Persephone who comes from a Lostbelt where Hades got taken out somehow and now Persephone runs the Underworld. IT'S... NOT GOIN GREAT BUT SHE'S FINE. Basically the "Act 2 Yuri" option. ]

[le_mat]

(Hmmm, you want a Master or some Servant v Servant hijinks?)

Anna Fugo | GRANBELM

[emberserker]

[She doesn't work as well as a Master here than in a regular HGW meme, but Berserker, Rider (complete with giant robot) or a low-stat Caster work fine. Be prepared for insufferable ranting and ojou antics.]

Kirei Kotomine | Fate/stay night

[blackmass]

[caster, assassin, or a weird fucking avenger]

Sofia Sinclair | OC

[kratistos]

[ Servant Archer, who wields a cool sword because this class can wield them for some reason. Her Noble Phantasms would be her War Skin (stat enhancer and main weapon with cannons, also allows her to fight Berserkers in close quarters for a short time), Endless Hollow (a sword that functions kind of like Excalibur Morgan) ]

lmk if this is okay!

[bought]

[ Chaldea's kitchen is big enough for plenty of servants. Saber Raphtalia eats a hearty meal, ears twitching happily. ]

Sofia-san! Come join me!

Ren Amamiya | Persona 5

[le_mat]

[Is a very loving Master. And as a Servant is usually an Archer or Assassin... but does have an Alter that can be an Avenger or Foreigner ]

Time 4 what we discussed Re: Shinjuku

[hatesdeerstalkers]

[So. You'd think the world would let Akira Kurusu, the unknown savior of Humanity and only Master of Chaldea have a break for a while. Let him live his life, albeit under the dubious hanging sword of the Mage Association making a mad scramble for the organization.

But no. Instead, fate decided that another singularity was in the cards - and as the wind of falling from the air as the city rapidly approached slammed around his ears, there was suddenly a voice.

The voice of an old man.]

Saving a falling youth...Normally, such a role would be reserved for a beautiful maiden, or a comely prince!

[There's the sense of a presence behind him.]

Then, after the 'meet cute', as it were, you should be fumbling around, trying your very best to solve the Singularity while flirting with each other! Yes - such a tale is natural, is it not?

However!

[A pair of gloved hands suddenly grip Akira, holding him in what almost looks like a princess carry while he's able to get his first look at the Old man who's speaking.]

The one who has saved you is neither of those things! Instead, you've been rescued by a Shady, Mustachioed old man!

[And he gives a grin and a wink at the poor Master.]

James Moriarty | Fate/Grand Order | OTA

[hatesdeerstalkers]

[I mean.

Here's Crime Grandpa for all of your 'did you start another goddamn event you shitty old man' needs!!

Also please consider if you know the EoR's well enough, Shinjuku time. HAVE YOU EVER WANTED TO FALL FROM THE SKY AND BE CAUGHT BY A SHADY OLD MAN AND PARACHUTE DOWN INTO A FOREVER NIGHT CITY WHERE PEOPLE CONTINUALLY TRY TO BLOW EACH OTHER UP? WELL NOW YOU CAN

Archer, obviously! Or we can do weird time shenanigans look I don't care just hit me up]

[bigcore]

Oh, New Math is here.

[Apparently that's a greeting. Wait, why is she hanging out of a ceiling vent?]

Maybe you know the answer. You talk about being evil, but then make friends. How do you do that? I want some. Sad, sad Tita.

Tsolmon Avagnar | Final Fantasy XIV (WoL) | OTA

[xaela]

[Always some sort of Servant since hero of world(s) and all that.

Can either be Assassin, Berserker (although a very lucid one) or Foreigner due to... reasons. Initially very awkward and stoneface, but will open up and reveal that she's lowkey a gremlin though also very caring. Can and will eat anything she can get her hands on, and is also very much a drain on mana.]

flat escardos | fate/strange fake

[escardos]

[ foreigner! he met the idiot blind god azathoth during a dream and is now linked with it. he can either be an ally (rather annoying one, but good for debuffing and crits) or an antagonist that...has the best intentions at heart.

somewhat.

he is, most of the time, asleep. ]

[hatesdeerstalkers]

[Ah, yes. The newest Foreigner to the menagerie, linked to the god Azathoth. An interesting case, always continually asleep and sleep-talking.

...Oddly seems to like drifting into the same room as Moriarty, but he tolerated it. Honestly, with the boy being asleep, it was a lot like having a large, napping cat.

...But on this day, unfortunately, he's not as happy to have the Servant in his room. Why?]

...Foreigner.

[His voice is calm, even as he wraps his cloak around him and shivers.]

Would you terribly mind....removing yourself from the heat vent?!

H.P. Lovecraft | Bungo Stray Dogs

[ohrlyeh]

[Foreigner Doesn't want to be here. An anxious tall and incredible narcoleptic goth man who hates crowds and wants to sleep and may or may not have a bunch of tentacles up his sleeves.]

[Mess with him, though, and you may be biting off more than you can chew (he's not too bad, honestly, even if he is a big weirdo). Makes good balloon dachsunds.]

im here to make your life hell

[escardos]

Hellooooo....

[ the drowsy voice comes...from flat, who hovers dangerously close to him, eyes closed. it looks and sounds like he's sleeping, actually--because they are.

the cafeteria is rather empty for once, all the servants having gotten their meals. foreigner, however, was still there for a reason. ]

I overslept...can you take me back to my room.....

[ to make his fellow foreigner's life a little more horrible. ]

Tita Nium | Otomedius

[bigcore]

[Foreigner or possibly Rider if you want her to have her Ride Viper. A weird... person? who appeared in an invasion of creatures from space (???), but was persuaded to defect to the side of good, bringing alien tech and/or magic with her. Now she just kind of loafs around being an inscrutable gremlin, fighting with laser pillars from nowhere and a bunch of attack drones she may or may not have stolen the blueprints for. She really just wants friends.

Also may or may not be able to turn into a giant eyeball. It's unclear.]

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

[This here is Servant Caster, Rita Mordio. A famed researcher of advanced technology who can pull off magic-like effects she calls 'Artes' with the aid of her blastia, she's usually in a few hundred books at the library.

But today, she's actually walked out and happens to run into Tita.]

Oh, hey Rider.

[Rita has a bit of a habit of defaulting to people's class names until she actually knows them a little more. Going back if they piss her off.]

manaka sajyou | fate/prototype

[immaculacies]

( Local ex-Beast summoned as a Saver because I do what I want. Either the Mad Enhancement EX version or a relatively more sane one are fine. )

[escardos]

Miss Saveeerrr.....

[ who is that floating by manaka in the kitchen? foreigner, of course!

actually, was he always there? the answer is no, of course. they simply appeared, the same way the always did with other servants.

he hovers behind her with a curious expression, his bare feet just a few inches off the floor. his eyes are closed as he is sleeping, as per usual, but it seems that he's still able to see. somehow. perhaps it's best if she didn't know how. ]

Miss Saver....making lunch....?

leonardo b. harway | fate/extra

[learnedloss]

( Pseudo-Servant, Ruler class, identity given as Sol Invictus. Because Sol Invictus is himself a composite god, or maybe just because Leo is an overpowered munchkin, Leo mostly retains his original sense of identity and personality. )

Saori Nakagawa | OC | OTA

[needsteaplz]

[Goddess mom turned Saber or Caster. I'm open to the idea of her being a master as well but I'm craving more AU servant shenanigans. ]

Beatrice the Golden | Umineko: When They Cry

[awitchdidit]

[Caster, or if you're willing to wait for a special banner, Assassin in a different outfit. Rumors of a 5-star Avenger version are true only in my heart.]

[Alleged witch and alleged perpetrator of a series of mysterious killings on a secluded island in Japan during the last century. Even in Chaldea her background is somewhat obscured, but it's plain to see that she has magical power suited to preparing a battlefield and destroying her enemies one by one, plus a deep knowledge of demonology and metaphysics that is surely helpful to Chaldea's mission. However, she mostly just sits around, drinks, plays games, and compliments Da Vinci.]

((As for Master potential, she's not suitable as a savior of humanity, but in some universe, her combination of absurd wealth and E-rank Luck is responsible for a significant fraction of DW's profits.))

SORRY THIS TOOK A WHILE

[hatesdeerstalkers]

[He, of course, knew of Beatrice's history - how her magic worked. An Interesting sort, akin to Shakespeare and Anderson, though her interest lay not in the sorts of stories they wove.

Still, her kind of magic worked well for what he had in mind - so, with all the politeness of a man of the victorian era, he knocked on the door to her room.]

Lady Beatrice? Might I have a word with you?

V/V | Angel Notes

[heavenscorpse]

[Foreigner class, being a manifestation of an eldritch plant from Venus. Her Noble Phantasm, Heaven's Corpse, is an Anti-World NP that summons more mindless 'angels' from her real body's leaves to rip an opponent to shreds.

Loves humanity and is still learning what concepts like 'revenge' and 'cleaning' mean. A total sweetheart who can be found playing the guitar in Chaldea's common rooms.]

Edelgard von Hresvelg | Fire Emblem Three Houses

[flame_emperor]

[A Servant either of the Saber, Berserker, Avenger or Ruler depending on the route and whether or not it's pre- or post-timeskip.]

Jailbreak | OC | OTA

[nor_iron_bars]

[DO YOU WANT OPTIONS 'CAUSE WE GOT OPTIONS.]

[Trashy, trashy crime options.]

[Whether you want a traditional Grail War or this absolute disaster showing up in Chaldea, there's always the possibility that Jail's gleeful notoriety finally 1. got her killed and 2. got her summoned. Can be called forth as a Rider (Noble Phantasm includes bizarre magical car she will not let you drive), Caster (time for mad magic science), or if you're very unlucky an Archer (SHE DID NOT NEED INDEPENDENT ACTION WHO DECIDED THIS). Either way, she's definitely thoroughly enjoying having a body again, probably via someone else's money.]

[Alternately, could make a very unconventional Master or a demi-Servant merged with the mythological Daedalus. In the latter case, she definitely did it on purpose just to see if she could, and is not at all sorry.]

[theyellowsky]

[Daisy isn't sure about this whole Master thing, but she also hasn't been sure of anything in her entire life. Definitely not of what one of the Servants around here has been doing with the kitchen gadgets.]

Uh... Rider? That was a toaster oven before, right? Don't we kinda need that?

Rhea | Fire Emblem Three Houses

[archboxer]

[Probably a Saber, though one who is also proficient in magic. She can also be summoned as an Avenger for some reason... though she seems just like her Saber self. For the most part. For spoiler reasons I won't say too much on that, though.

She just wants to be a helpful mentor for the Master/other Servants.]

Weiss Schnee | RWBY

[defencive]

[Did you expect to summon Snow White? Well, you got her closest equivalent from a feasible collab. Who's nothing like Snow White at all besides the name, and appears to have stolen a certain Saber's fashion sense. Available in 3-star Saber and 4-star Caster editions.]

[A heroine from another world, or so she says. Defeating the forces that want to consume mankind is a specialty of hers, as is acrobatic swordplay and a hereditary supernatural affinity for glyphs that she insists is definitely not Magecraft. (It's more like Formalcraft, really). Has a talent for wrangling more energetic Servants, for some reason.]

[If you'd like her as a Master, she actually is eminently suitable for that, if a little bit closer to the type of old money mage who will blast you with a flu laser for sassing her than the lovable puppy type. Still, she's committed to her mission.]

Anand Maere | OC

[preventedmurder]

[A young woman with raven wings and the touch of the gift of prophecy from something inhuman - a Foreigner, in other words. An easygoing if highly sarcastic teenager when she's not fighting for the living things of the planet, and extremely intense when she is. And also still kind of sarcastic.]

[She might be from another world, or she might hold a third of the divine power of The Morrigan as a sort of semi-demi-Servant. Either way, she's eager to get causality back on track - she's the one who's supposed to be able to mess with it.]

[Also available in Master form, but the bird wings are non-negotiable.]

honoka | dead or alive

[aspunch]

( very likely to be a master than a servant. ay, she looks similar enough to gudako, except off-brand by being pink, ditzy, and obsessed with fighting alongside her servants.

but in the case of being a heroic spirit, she's possessed by ng mui, an assassin class, or bastet, who can be summonable as an archer or avenger class! )
