Just for laughs I make up Servant Stats for characters, and a nasuified back story if applicable.

Rider Shepard (Female, Paragon Vanguard)

Alignment: Lawful Good

Luck: D

Endurance: B

Strength: A

Agility: C

Mana: A+

NP: C-A

Riding: B (though it does not translate to actually being a GOOD driver)

Charisma: A – Shepard has become the Hero of an entire Galaxy in her lifetime, hailed as a hero, and feared as a figure of righteous fury among the lawless. It is easy to say without her, the entire galaxy as they knew it would’ve never survived the Reapers.

Instinct: C

Noble Phantasm:

Mako: C – an always active phantasm, a mode of transport that doubles as an anti-personnel weapon. A large terrestrial vehicle, it can be mistaken for an outrageous Humvee – it’s mounted with an armor-penetrating cannon but it’s much more efficient for Shepard to simply run over her foes. However, navigating in the Mako is a ponderous, awkward affair and the ride is quite uncomfortable for the two passengers it can carry.

Normandy: B+ - a state of the art space cruiser created with the best of human and turian technology. Fully capable of going completely stealth in less than FTL speed and primed with plasma guns, missiles, the Normany can unleash it’s fury on any target Rider direct it. Its rank as an Anti-Fortress Noble Phantasm is hampered by its limitations; its mass prevents it from going orbital so it can only unleash indiscriminate strikes capable of wiping a small city off the map – a dire last resort attack.

United Front: A – It is an anti-army, anti-personnel reality marble representing Shepard’s loyal team of every species and background. Shades of every member of Shepard’s team, living or dead, past and present appear upon call and immediately fans out in tactical strikes against her foes – they are capable of responding to changes in battle and adjust their tactics accordingly. The shades limited mimic their original’s mannerisms, but these are just shadows of the real thing and incapable of existing outside the marble.

(Team includes: Ashley, Kaidan, Liara, Tali, Wrex, Garrus, Samara, Mordin, Miranda, Jacob, Jack, Kasumi, Grunt, Legion, EDI, Thane, Zaeed)


Caster Dionysus (can also be Berserker)

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral

Luck: A

Endurance: C

Agility: A

Strength: D

Mana: A+

NP: B-A

Territory Creation: C – Dionysus’ wild and wanderlust nature makes him unsuitable for any kind of territory creation, skewing any advantage for the freedom to move as he pleases.

Item Creation: B – Creator of wine other intoxicants, Caster is the greatest brewer from the age of gods, though anything involving immortality is forbidden to him.

Divinity B – While in life, his divine paternity was in great dispute, he was elevated to godhood after his death

Nature of a Rebellious Spirit: EX – as the ultimate personification of divine ecstasy and infamous for his attacks on those who dare to restrain his power, Dionysus is immune to any outside force trying to subdue him, including that all restraints used on him will fail – locks would tumble, ropes will slide off, handcuffs snap, etc.. However, as he is a Heroic Servant, he is still bound by Command Spells of his master.  

Charisma B – Handsome in Androgyny, and Alluring in Temptation he is the model of Greek beauty and embodiment of taboos, though an aura of danger is enough to send wise men fleeing.

Noble Phantasms:

Procession of Maenads: B: A Phantasm that relies on his brews, anyone that partake in his wines, beers, or the like can – if Dionysus wills it – be immediately become possessed by  a divine ecstasy. The Possessed will lose all self-control, screaming shouting, engaging in indiscriminate orgies of dancing, sex, and violence – often chasing down and ritually dismembering an unfortunate being with strength borne of madness and eating it’s raw flesh. This state of ecstasy will last for a full day, and they are utterly uncontrollable, senseless to reason, and easily provoked into rage or lust. As there is no control, Dionysus’ master is in as much danger as his enemies.

Repairment of Flesh: A: as he was torn to pieces by giants and consumed, he was mended back together by divine magic – this ritualized resurrection continues, if he is torn apart by either the maenads or enemy servants/magus – long as his heart is intact he can restore himself whole in a day’s time. If his heart is destroyed, or slain by other means he will not come back to life.

Story Nasuized:

Dionysus is the first Libertine, he who denies the use of moral restraints in an age where civility was the highest virtue. A divine child of Zeus, whose mother died upon witnessing his father’s full divinity – he was a target of Hera’s jealousy and was taken from guardian to guardian by Hermes to stay ahead of her wrath, raised a girl in one household, tutored under Chiron, and finally protected by rain nymphs.

But it was not enough; Hera eventually caught up and struck the young boy with madness. Dionysus ran from civilization towards the east, roaming the woods alternating between believing himself an animal, a god, ran with satyrs, and operating under base instincts. A group of Titans ambushed him during a fit of delirium, and unable to understand what is happening, he was torn apart and devoured before he could defend himself.

Zeus was furious and had his half-divine son resurrected using his heart, and under duress Hera removed the curse of madness. Even though he was no longer cursed, it is a mistake to say he is sane. The years marked him, all lessons of civilized behavior forgotten and his experience of being torn apart was remember as kind of divine calling and he experimented with trying to replicate the feeling and subjecting those who he fancy to the same tearing, unable to realize why they won’t come back to life.

In his explorations, he discovered wine and intoxicating drinks, sharing it with others to allow as many people to experience ‘liberation’ as possible, eventually garnering a cult of desperate folks and disenfranchised women – given strength by Dionysus’ intoxications and flouting of the restrictive, patriarchal society of ancient Greece, cursing Thebes’ royal family for their insult on his mother, Macedon’s women stricken with madness when they tried to arrest him and his followers.

As his cult grew, he started to believe he was one of the gods – and fearing the disruptive influence his cult had, his father had no choice but to remove him from the mortal plane. As the cult celebrated in the wilderness, he was struck by a bolt of lightning and immediately slain, but he ascended as a true god.
