QUESTION FOR A QUESTION MEME

We all like hearing about each other's characters! We all like talking about our own characters! With this groundbreaking new meme, now you can finally do both, for the very first time in DWRP history!

The Guidelines:

• Post a toplevel listing the characters you play! If you have any boundaries you want to set re: questions you might receive (e.g. "No NSFW questions for this character"), do that here too.
  
• Tag other people asking them questions about their characters. What kinds of questions? Up to you! Canon questions, headcanon questions, meta questions, some random thing you've wondered since that thread you had two months ago, it's all fair game.
  
• Need ideas? I was passed this excellent gallery of various questions memes, so feel free to crib from these or just use them as inspiration.
  
• Answer the questions you receive, and, once you've done that, hit the person back with a question of your own about their character(s) too!
  
• You can end it there, or continue to go back and forth asking questions until you're out.
  

Now get to askin'!

gareth

I AM definitely not arrogant enough to presume i could write her better than nasu is in LB6, because having another tragic death aside, i was actually really, like. affirmed seeing her behave in a way i would have written her, and to have my characterization of her backed up in not just an official source, but penned by the franchise's creator. that being said, by nature of this just being a unique scenario to that (and the fact she's the Pan Human History Gareth) means she might go in a direction that is not, like. strictly outlined by canon. Having Gawain directly confront her with needing to value her own life more has already been something she didn't really get in canon (Percival gives her a similar speech, but under really different circumstances, and not really carrying the same meaning).

So I think I'm less focused on like... being more "progressive" with her and more just seeing what this different road, one she doesn't have in canon, will provide her, and hope I can do something that's at least interesting with it.


kipposhi

"he is an enigma and it overwhelms her" MONA! i honestly feel bad for her, kipposhi is so goddamn much.

BUT to the Avenger question, Kipposhi (and all of the different Nobunagas that make up his Spirit Core) is unified with his Spirit Core by this tumultuous, formless inferno of their grudges, born from fear and reverence, the distorted history of Nobunaga that he, himself, helped cultivate. It feels too big to overcome, and if he'd even truly want to.

Honestly, you gave Byrn as an example, as someone who was able to take the "fate" forced on them by their Spirit Origin and turn it into good (both in Prototype and various storylines in FGO). I feel like, given the proper motivation, Kipposhi could do the same. He may not be able to escape the cycle of retribution, that whole "hate from love, love from hate" thing, but he could at least channel that energy into something positive.

i HOPE U KNOW WHEN ISAY IN YOUR HANDS I M EAN, in a medium where its roleplay. and not agame where story telling & character development/interaction is based on their need to show up. so like just the simple fact after lb6 - or after most singularities. we dont get more content of characters. just what we get and the story given to us, but that here with gareth. you can develop her different then what nasu has done or can even do. bc again this is all about gareth.

YELLLS AT PERCIVAL.... DID NOT KNOW TRHAT WHAT HE DID IM SO UPSET NASU STOP.

sigh gareth is v good. i am excited for her in avalon..

I MEAN bryn is still stuck, she is just doing what she can to not remain at the hands of a tragedy that will always follow her. shes always destined to be self destructive, but she choses to try to be more then that most of the time - or just try to prevent it. ie her singularties. sigurd being around extremely helps. i love her to counter point the struggles all servants go through, i think people forget that servants are extremely predisposed to their history. or what they came from.

I wonder if it will be a self instilled? that will be interesting to see though
