+1 definitely not a vampire

[lancerofblood]

Hey guys, Rhi here, player of Ann and Junko (I dropped Luna a while back) with a new third. Because I have fallen into Fate and from there, this was bound to happen.

(I was actually between two Fates. Vlad won).

Anyway. This is Lancer of Black from Fate/Apocrypha, also known as Vlad III. He is a Servant based on the real Vlad III and willingly owns his reputation as the Impaler - however, he very much does not care for the legend of Dracula that has attached itself to his name. It's enough that he outright refuses to use the Noble Phantasm he has based on that legend and he has a tendency to get...upset when he sees any reference to the Dracula story. So this should be fun.

His canon point is during the assault on the Hanging Gardens, before he's forced to use the NP he despises, and I'll be throwing up an intro post for him soon.

...oh dear.

This might be hilarious. I can't stop grinning now.

[lancerofblood]

It's going to be a beautiful trainwreck and I am ready for it.

[immortalrose]

This tragedy will be a comedy!

I bet Vlad is going to have a conniption once he meets all the vampires, nevertheless this dhampir here.

[lancerofblood]

Pretty much, yeah. Bad enough there are vampires at all but vampiric versions of himself? That is an insult and a travesty and he is going to hate every second.

[immortalrose]

What is he going to do once he finds out Castlevania is a thing? pfft!

I'm about to ping Cody since he rps Dracula.

[lancerofblood]

Flip out I would imagine since oh god it's escalating. Which is a shame too because I'd imagine having real Draculas around would help with his NP if he wasn't so dead set against using it.

[immortalrose]

Epic freak out impending!

Luckily, Augustine is the most peaceful of the Vlads. Expect him to play peacekeeper.

[lancerofblood]

Good luck, Augustine. That is not an enviable position to be in.

Oh my gosh, more reasons for me to actually watch Apocrypha but welcome to Fate hell, I'm fairly new there myself too and I'm really glad to see more Fate/s around!

Hello Rhi! I'm Nea, I play this tsunderp from another Fate/whatever and we both also seem to play twintailed girls voiced by Nana Mizuki as I play Utau Hoshina from Shugo Chara, so I feel biased to say excellent choice there too even though I only know Personas through RP. I also have Mikasa Ackerman from Attack On Titan/Shingeki No Kyojin, Blake Belladonna from RWBY, Anna from Frozen and Korra from the Avatar-series around there somewhere, need to do more with all...

Anyway, vampires are amazing and I'm glad to see more here, he sounds like fun and I hope I'll have time to watch that series soon but don't worry about spoiling anything, that'd be fine if it happens somehow somewhere at all.

[lancerofblood]

Hi Nea! That's a great list of characters there and yay for Rin, I love her a lot. (UBW is the only one I've made it through other than Apocrypha, Zero's next on my list). And I'll try to keep the spoilers down but there should be some interesting timeline-based shenanigans at least!

[greedyvixen]

Thank you, your list is great too tho Dangan Ronpa is also one of those that I only know through RP and rl friends. I'm glad you love Rin a lot, unsurprisingly I do too but it still took me years to get into Fate even after rl friends said I should do that to get a Rin muse (because she's my type so obviously that everyone knew it...) I've seen UBW, Zero and Heaven's Feel movie myself to get more and more time with Rin and Saber along with everything else... possibly watching the original Stay Night next or then I let some Fates roll to me from Netflix, we'll see which happens first. Timeline-based things are often interesting yes, I'll throw at least Rin to his intro when I get to tagging!

[lancerofblood]

Yeah, Fate's been something I've been meaning to get into for some time and a lot of my rl friends have been getting into it lately so I dived in. Netflix having some of the series helps too.

Either way, looking forward to seeing how things go with Rin and this particular Lancer!

[what_is_a_man]

...One of us is going to have to change.

Nah but this should be interesting to say the least.

[lancerofblood]

Interesting is definitely the word for it. But don't worry, Lancer has no intention of letting his own personal Dracula loose any time soon or ever if he can help it.
