r/Fate

Ok so I’ve been thinking about coming up with a fic to make an entirely new holy grail war, I know the Throne of Heroes was basically locked after Tesla, but the premise of the story is that the Throne of Heroes malfunctions and people after Tesla still get to be heroes and everyone before Tesla including Tesla can’t be summoned making an entire war with “modern” servants. I’m having some trouble coming up with people for certain classes like saber though. I’ve thought of a few.

Tolkien - Caster

White Death - Archer

Houdini - Assassin

I need some more, but you can give me more people for the classes already filled

I mean, Shirou is all about swords, and Zanpakuto are some of the most famous swords in anime/manga.

I know some may prefer asking if he could Trace a Zanpakuto and what would happen then, but I want to think of something more personal.

How he obtains this Zanpakuto.....ummm.....uh........don't worry about it.

Coming up with a Shikai/Bankai for Shirou is hard because, well,

1. Zanpakutos and their Shikai and Bankai are already Personality Powers, and you could argue Unlimited Blade Works and Shirou's Tracing/Projection are already powers that fit his personality. So coming up with a NEW Power based on Shirou's power may be hard.
2. When he can basically copy almost any sword/weapon he comes across, how do you come up with something unique for a sword that represents SHIROU himself/specifically?

I did have SOME crazy ideas, but not exactly for a Shikai/Bankai

First off, there is this tidbit

>According to Q&A #277 by Tite Kubo on his fansite "Klub Outside", all Zanpakutō consist of two separate parts, the blade and the scabbard; Sayafushi and Zangetsu are the only two Zanpakutō without a scabbard

So, I imagine that Shirou's Zanpakuto's Scabbard would take some design cues from Avalon. Just in appearance, mind you. I mean, considering that it is a Sheathe/Scabbard that is so important to Shirou as kind of the origin of his...well, Origin of Sword, I feel like it manifesting as part of his Zanpakuto would be fitting.

My other idea was sort of a way for UBW to mix with the Zanpakuto, not really as a Shikai or Bankai. I had the idea where it is just the handle and scabbard, usually with no metal blade, but the scabbard is actually connected to Shirou's UBW, and he summons the blade from the scabbard, plugs it into the handle, and then quickdraws it. Whenever he re-sheathes the sword, he can switch out the blade for one with a new power from another blade within UBW. It's like the usual logic of Iai: you keep it sheathed so the opponent can't guess the length of the blade, but this time, it's about the sword's power.

I hope this logic makes sense, but I am not too sure about this one because, again, how would it relate to Shikai and Bankai?

One part of mastering a Zanpakuto is to communicate with the Zanpakuto Spirit within one's inner world tied to their soul. Well, Shirou already has one of those: his Reality Marble Unlimited Blade Works.

As for his Zanpakutyo spirit, I imagined it being a Saberface, considering how Avalon is an artifact tied to Artoria/Saber and Avalon kind of influenced his soul a lot due to the whole Sword Element/Origin that it did. And an idea I had was that, if UBW is referred to as a "steel manufacturing factory", then if Shirou is the owner of the Factory, then this Zanpaktou spirit would be the Manager of the Factory.

None of these ideas pertain to the Sealed form, Shikai, or Bankai; they are just random stuff I was coming up with.

So, what are some ideas that you guys have imagined for a Zanpakuto for Shirou?

And please do not just give him his canonical abilities, but translated into Bleach powers. I want actual new stuff.

Imma guess probably ruler and berserker

Between the 2 different designs for archer Heracles the 3 different designs for Alcides and two different designs for hippolyta I was left confused as to wether archer Heracles is ment to have the war gods military belt , the evidence I see is against him having it as it is probably among the nps belonging to his assassin self and the cloth wrapped around his arm is not the goddess of war Alcides materialises it rather than unfolding it it’s unlikely to be the belt around his waist either since Alcides poses a similar one not to say archer Heracles does not have it definitively or could not materialise it like Alcides does but the designs do not support him having it in my opinion , but what do you guys think.

Shuten has two Masters, she should be a little extra strong in Kyoto. Anyway who is winning??

I just read through this section of Ordeal Call III. Let's say by some miracle that Gerard was summoned to stop King Protea in place of Proalter; would he be able to get the job done?

I’ve never played Fate/hollow ataraxia.

Time for the dual pirates, also no FA as I don't want to take the chances with it

Likes: Being a pirate (Mary)

Dislikes: Shackles (Mary)

Personally gonna go with the range of B-A though could see any of the other ranks plus you can give different ranks for them as roommates

Are his abilities different from berserker and archer Hercules ? If so what are they ?

And how does this version compare to the corrupted fake strange fake version ?

Could Emiya Shirou summon Muramasa during the Fifth Holy Grail War? Like, Muramasa is a Pseudo-Servant who uses Emiya's body in his early 20s. If Emiya didn't have Avalon, could he potentially end up summoning Muramasa?
