CHARACTER Name: Lancer (Cu Chulainn) Canon: Fate/Prototype Timeline: Shortly after Misaya tries to acquire Saber If playing another character from the same canon, how will you deal with this?: N/A
Personality: Lancer’s personality is very much like that of his FSN counterpart, only younger, stupider, and more idealistic. Lancer is a very rough and wild, but straightforward and carefree man. He is usually friendly and casual, even to his enemies. In fact, his personal philosophy is that one should drink until dawn with someone they get along with, even if that person would become the enemy in the morning. However, this does not change the fact that on the battlefield, all enemies to be killed mercilessly. Speaking of battle: he loves it. The reason he joined the army was so he could fight good opponents. However, it usually applies to single battles against talented warriors. Though he is quick to work himself into a frenzy when fighting, he has no interest in the mass slaughter during wars.
Though he refuses to talk about his alignment in terms of good or evil, he is a good person on the inside. He is rather naïve and impulsive, having not yet realized that the world is an unreasonable place and has an inherent balance of good and evil. He is often the first to rush into battle, as well as the first to physically discipline any thugs who harass innocent people. Despite being friendly, his impulsive and brunt way of speaking and joking around sometimes ends up hurting feelings unawares to him. This can be seen in his interactions with his Master Misaya, where he tells her that she has no good traits as a Master when compared with Ayaka, Saber’s Master.
He is an honorable man, having sworn to loyally serve anyone that becomes his Master. At the same time, he is a rebellious teenager who sometimes clashes with his Master’s personality or methods. Though he would never desert his Masters, he still has some problems taking orders that he dislikes, such as harming women or innocent people. On rare occasions, his personal sense of morality will override even his Master’s orders. But most of the time, he just complains about having to perform those tasks, as seen in his interactions with Misaya—when ordered to lure Saber to their side, he continuously complained that he wanted to go home. When he did speak to Saber, he did so in a rather roundabout and half-assed way that left Saber confused as to the purpose of Lancer’s visit. His honor is tied to his straightforward nature. He does not like lies or betrayal and is a man of his word, willing to uphold any oath that he swears, no matter how unreasonable, until his dying day. At the same time, he absolutely hates traitors and is easily stirred into a rage if he encounters them. His other dislike is convoluted plans, which conflict with his straightforward nature.
For all his impulsiveness, Lancer rarely has any regrets. In his view, what is done is done. Hope is for the future and miracles are for the living. Even if some tragedy befalls him, he would give himself sufficient time to mourn, but then move on and continue living his life as he likes it, letting his instincts guide him. This is, at least, what he would like to believe. In truth, some incidents in the past have severely traumatized him, and even if he does not want to, they sometimes come back to haunt him and drive him to try to prevent the tragedy from ever happening again. In canon, he swore to save Misaya from her curse at least partly because she reminded him of his teacher Scathach, who was trapped in a state between life and death due to a curse.
Lancer’s straightforward view also applies to his desires. He is not exactly a man known for his temperance, especially when it comes to women. He has had a long series of one-night-stands, though he has genuinely fell in love only very few times. He has a liking for tough girls, especially those who initially act cold or tease him, because they remind him of his teacher, Scathach. This attraction can be either romantic or simply friendly in nature, depending on the girl. His way of showing it usually includes lots of friendly teasing, though given the girls he’s dealing with, it usually earns him swift and painful repercussions. Ironically, he puts off sleeping with the girls he likes, preferring to get to know them first.
First Person:
[The feed flickers on, showing Lancer sitting on a bench in the train station.]
Yo. I’ll get right to the point here. Has anyone ever tried to take the train out of here before? If it arrives every evening at the same time, it’s just a matter of hopping on it after the new arrivals get off, right? What happens if you try that?
[He shifts the communicator to show the fog-covered tracks.]
They probably can’t drop an entire train into the catacombs. Hell, I’d be surprised if they had more than one train running in this place.
Third Person:
It had been days since Lancer arrived in this mysterious city. Days since he had to admit that it was no dream and that he was indeed separated from his Master. The initial confusion had passed, leaving anger in its place. How could he just remain stuck here? Misaya needed him at home. Every second that he spent here was a second wasted as Misaya’s time ran toward its limit.
He wants to smash his way out. If aimless wandering just led to him being lost in the catacombs, then he would just tear apart the entire town. Surely the forces that managed the city would be unable to hold him if there was no city to hold him in.
Of course, he has to find a good place to start smashing shit. After all, every bounded field has a center; a spot that served to create the spell. If that was found and destroyed, everything else could be easily obliterated as clean-up. He chooses to start with the clock tower first. It’s the highest place in the city, and magi seemed to like clock towers. If there was a core or something powering the city, there was the good bet it was here.
For the next several hours, other people who visit the tower will find Lancer carefully touching and sniffing all the tower structures to see if they hold any special properties.
