*pulls out a magical baton and mutters a few words before directing said soul in a complicated series of formations* Crap, I'm getting off topic again. Um, question, does anyone else think that the Quattro lady seems a little like the crazy monkey lady from Negima?

Well, this is all your fault. That's my story and I'm sticking to it .

Uh...yeah, by the way, don't read if you haven't watched Fate/Stay Night. In fact, you probably won't understand it if you haven't watched Fate/Stay Night.

Spoiler for Fate/Sig Night:

Fate/Stay Night
The abridged Nanoha edition

“I am the one who gives you this charge…”

I stood in the middle of the darkened room, illuminated only the pink glow of the magical circle I had drawn around me. Through my outstretched hand I poured magic into the red gem I held.

“…release your power to your contracted master.”

I was momentarily blinded by a flash of red as my ponytail drifted in front of my eyes, swaying from the pulses of magical energy. Ignoring them, I continued my incantation.

“As the winds fill the sky, and the stars fill the heavens, so shall my heart fill with courage, and my hands with magic!”

This summoning would be perfect; the result of all my work and training. I would only accept the strongest of servants.

“Come forth to me!”

This was it: a servant of the Saber cla-

*BOOM*

I was knocked off my feet as an explosion rocked the mansion, and my ears echoed with what sounded like a lightning bolt. Had something gone wrong? I clambered to my feet and dashed to where the sound had come from. Nearly breaking the door down as I entered the room, I froze, absolutely shocked.

A gaping hole was smashed through the roof and the entire room was demolished by the impact of the failed summoning. Atop the piles of debris, a woman sat, clad in black with a long flowing white cape stretched across her shoulders. Her golden hair framed her face as it drifted through the air. She slowly turned her head to me, and piercing red eyes stared at mine as a smirk played across her lips.

“It seems I’ve been drawn by a peculiar little master.”

----------------------------

“What’s going on here?!” I screamed to myself as I ran down the deserted hallway, “Those two were fighting, weren’t they? That blond woman and the red haired kid – it wasn’t just an act, they were trying to kill each other!”

I stopped running, falling against the corridor wall to catch my breath.

“Don’t panic. There’s probably a good explanation for all of-“

“Sonic move!”

Those words barely registered in my head as an agonizing pain ripped through my chest, a spear driven clean into my heart. I only caught a glimpse of the red hair of my assailant before I collapsed to the floor, my senses quickly fading.

“Sorry, but witnesses can’t be allowed to live,” the boy murmured as he vanished.

”Not like this…I can’t die like this!” were my last thoughts before the world closed in around me…

----------------------------

“You were probably the seventh,” the red-haired boy said to me as he pointed his spear towards me.

“Seventh, what do you mean?” I asked, trying to stall. I was just given a second chance, I can’t die again. Unnoticed to both of us, lines began to form on my left hand.

“It doesn’t matter now,” he answered, poising as he prepared to strike.

Not like this, I couldn’t redeem myself like this. My death would be for a better cause than this! The lines on my hand started to glow, and unseen to me the circle drawn on the ground behind me responded in kind.

“Now die,” the boy said, plunging his spear towards me. I flinched and fell backwards, shutting my eyes tight as I awaited the inevitable. The pain I expected never came though, as the sound of metal on metal resonated. Opening my eyes, I watched as the lancer leapt away, driven back by another figure standing before me. Turning towards me, I stared at the woman who had just saved my life.

“I am Saber, the servant you have summoned,” she said, her voice low and steady. The moonlight cast through the window reflected off of her silver armour, surrounding her in an ethereal glow. Her long pink hair swayed behind her, and her intense and determined eyes were unblinkingly locked onto mine.

“What would you have me do, master?”

I couldn’t speak, my mouth open as I sat frozen on the ground. Maybe it was the confusion around me…no, that wasn’t it. I was silent in awe from the overwhelming beauty of the girl standing before me…

----------------------------

“You idiot, Fate! What’re you doing here without your servant?” Nanoha lectured, glaring with her hands on her hips.
“We should be safe at school, right?” I asked, confused, “No one would attack with this many people around.”

“You’re so naïve Fate! You should’ve left right away like I told you too. Now we’re all alone here, and anyone could take you out easily,” she said, still very angry. I looked around and saw that she was right.

“I’ll just have to teach you a lesson myself,” she stated, her voicing and face getting serious. Her hand raised and she pointed a finger at me. “Divine Shooter!”

She was serious! I barely moved out of the way as the pink blast shot towards me.

“Stop, Nanoha!” I cried out. She was my friend, why was she doing this?

“My magical control is perfect, so I won’t kill you. This’ll still hurt, though,” she said, firing another barrage which nearly hit their mark again, “Just give me your command seals, and you can end all of this.”

I couldn’t do that though. I couldn’t betray anyone close to me; I couldn’t hurt anyone important to me. I couldn’t hurt Saber. Turning and running, I dashed down the stairwell to get away. Nanoha followed in hot pursuit, jumping the entire flight. Her skirt billowed out as she leapt, and I caught a clear eyeful of white.

“Watch out, Nanoha! You just gave me a panty shot,” I said, momentarily forgetting my predicament.

“EH?!” she cried, a faint tinge of red on her cheeks as she glared at me again, “DIVINE SHOOTER!”

----------------------------

“Why do you do it, Testarossa?” Saber asked me as we stood in the park. Her voice was as calm and emotionless as ever and somehow that struck me harder than anger ever could, “Why do you keep throwing yourself into danger for the sake of others? Don’t you hold any value to your own life?”

I trembled slightly at the question. It was one that haunted me from the day I’d been born, one that I could never escape.

“I don’t deserve to live,” I answered, and noticed the slight surprise on her face, “I never should have been born. Every day is a reminder that the life I have is one that was stolen from so many others. Unless I devote myself to helping others, unless I do everything I can to save everyone else, I can never redeem myself.”

----------------------------

What was Testarossa thinking?! This rooftop was dangerous, and Rider wouldn’t hesitate from killing an unprotected master. I eyed the purple-haired girl as she swooped upward again, clinging to the back of the giant humanoid insect she had summoned. I had to end this quickly.

“Schlangenform!” I yelled, my sword whipping out into dozens of segmented blades, the deadly chain spinning around me like a vicious whirlwind.

“This battlefield suits me as well,” I said, focusing my energy into my attack. Rider had noticed my action, and stopped in midair above me, a magic circle appearing around her as her summon gathered light in its abdomen.

“I won’t have to worry about scorching the earth!”

My chain of blades burst into a blazing inferno, the sweltering heat blurring vision around me. I raised the hilt of my sword back, preparing to strike.

“Hakutenou!” Rider yelled, her summon launching a blast of power at me.

With all my might I swung my weapon, unleashing my Noble Phantasm.

“KARYU ISSEN!”

----------------------------

“Finish her, Berzerker, quickly!” the pink haired girl commanded. The massive black dragon roared its assent and moved to finish Archer off. The blonde woman only laughed, then drew herself up once again.

“You never did have any mercy, did you Caro?”

“…Caro?” the girl wondered aloud. Just who was this servant?

“My defeat may be inevitable,” Archer said, raising her weapon, “But I’ll take two more of your lives with me. Arc Saber!”

The attack took Caro and Berzerker by surprise, the spinning blade circling around them to strike the lone lamp illuminating the entryway. As it shattered, the room fell into darkness.

“Where is she? I can’t sense her,” Caro cried in panic, blindly searching for the mysterious servant. A pillar of light cast by the moon slowly drifted to the center of the floor, and the hidden Archer was brought under spotlight, her figure kneeling and weapon held to her shoulder.

“Looks like your luck is running out!” Caro gloated, ready to order Berzerker to end the battle.

“Arukas, Krutas, Eygias…” Archer chanted, her voicing seeming to echo from everywhere.

“Heavenly gods who shine over all, descend upon us now as I guide you…”

“Stop him Berzerker!” Caro yelled, her servant charging forward for the kill.

“Baruel, Zaluel, Browzel…”

Berzerker halted dead in his tracks and a look of horror appeared on the little girl’s face as a hundred magical blades flickered into existence around them, an ominous golden glow tainting the battlefield.

“Photon Lancer…Phalanx Shift!”

----------------------------

The sound of blades clashing echoed through the entire cavernous arena as two warriors matched each other blow for blow as they danced along the stairway, neither giving an inch.

“You are a skilled warrior,” Saber remarked, showing her respect for her opponent as they dueled. Truly, in skill alone he was more than a worthy foe. “You said that your name was Zest Grangaitz?”

“No. Zest Grangaitz is dead,” Assassin replied, pausing in his movements to answer the swordswoman, “I am nothing more than a false creation: a nameless warrior who serves no purpose except to fight, and has taken the name of the legend Zest Grangaitz.”

Sabers eyes widened slightly. In surprise? Or was it pity?

“Enough talk,” he continued, “We do not have time to waste on it. My life may be meaningless, but I shall find honour in death at the hands of a skilled opponent!”

“You’re right,” Saber said, readying her weapon once more, “I don’t have time to waste.”

----------------------------

“Damn that Caster!” Nanoha thought to herself as she dodged behind the pillar, the black tendrils of corrupted magic lashing against the stone. Caster was trying to create a new Book of Darkness, and intended to sacrifice a powerful magus to do it. But why Vivio? Why did it have to be Vivio?! Nanoha squeezed her eyes shut to block the tears, and attempted to divert her mind from the unbidden memories that came rushing back.

There was no other option. It was the only way to save Vivio’s life, and the only way to stop caster. Nanoha kissed the red gem in her hand, gathering up all of her magical power for one attack. Leaping out from her cover, she dashed forwards to the center of field towards Vivio, who was standing unmoving, entranced by Caster’s magic. The corrupted magic struck out in retaliation once more, and Nanoha nimbly dodged, continuing her last desperate attempt.

“I’m sorry Vivio, this is going to hurt me more than you,” she said, tears now sliding freely across her cheeks.

“STARLIGHT…!”

----------------------------

“You don’t deserve to live,” the figure stated, her voice quiet but clear despite the distance. She held an aura of divinity around her, felt by each of the five looking upon her. The intense evil of her presence was only emphasized by her venomous red eyes, cold main of silver hair and the four black wings that framed her silhouette. Her hand rose, and a wall of silver spears appeared alongside her.

“Mistilteinn.”

“NO!” Caster cried out as the spears launched themselves at her and her master. Desperately she flung herself in front of her master, raising a shield in hopes of saving their lives. The barrier only held for moments before it shattered, and Caster’s body was pierced by the Noble Phantasms.

As the barrage ended, Caster slowly turned towards her master, her eyes filled with tears.

“Are you alright, Alicia?” she whimpered out.

“…Yes…mother…I’m okay.”

----------------------------

Reinforce pointed her hand at me again, the three-point seal appearing from her palm. I couldn’t stop this attack before; it was just too powerful, she was too powerful.

Not this time though…my armour was shattered, but I could feel Fate’s magic flowing through me, the magic she was lending me as she continued to believe in me. Flaming wings blazed on my back, matching Reinforce’s, as I gathered all my strength to finish this battle…and this war.

“Bogenform!”

My sword shifted its shape, and I poured my energy into the newly formed bow, dashing forwards straight towards the oncoming assault.

“Ragnarok,” called Reinforce, her voice still calm and lifeless in spite of everything. The column of destruction erupted from her hand, threatening to end everything I had promised to do.

I didn’t hesitate. With a single motion I closed the final distance between us, swinging my weapon upwards as I let loose my arrow point-blank.

“STURM FALKEN!”

The collision of power nearly launched me backwards, but I stood strong, holding my ground. As strong as Reinforce was, in the end I was too determined to lose. My attack overwhelmed her own, my blazing arrow piercing through her blackened heart.

In her final moments before she faded though, I thought her face looked content.

----------------------------

I watched as she turned towards me, her beautiful face framed by the rising sun behind her, her hair flowing freely behind her as she smiled at me.

“I love you, Fate.”

A flash of sunlight struck my eye, and I blinked. In that mere moment, she was gone.

“That’s just like you,” I said, and smiled.

Spoiler:

And sorry that most of this is completely OOC. The Nanoha characters and their FSN counterparts had personality conflicts, and FSN ended up fighting dirty.

Now even I'm getting caught with the F/SN virus. You know how the Throne of Heroes is outside of space and time? What if the cast was involved in the latest Holy Grail War... and started summoning the OC's from the OC-thread?

Wouldn't it be an idea...if most of us did a collaboration (Is that the right word?) and we each make a servant summoned by one of the masters from F/SN ?

(I claim Ilya^^)

EDIT: wanwan's nosebleed? WTH is up with that tag?

[Keroko]

Advantage mine! I already created a Servant-OC version of Keroko-chan months ago on the Mirror Moon forums. :3

Class is a tough question. My servant would probably be either a Berserker or Saber class servant. Maybe she could also be a Gilgamesh style Archer (lots of projectiles instead of lots of range).

Spoiler for stats:

Abillities:

Strength: C
Endurance: D
Agillity: A+
Magical Energy: B
Luck: A
Noble Phantasm: A

Class Abillities:

Madness A (conditional): All parameters are increased, but sanity is lost. Servant becomes completely uncontrolable to the point of self-destruction.

Independant Action A: The abillity to act even when a masters magical energy is cut off. At this rank it is possible to act without a master for a week.

Skills:

Instinct - A: The abillity to 'feel' the best course for onself in combat. This heightened sense is now close to precognition.

Mid-Childan Magic - A: Knowledge of the Mid-Childan magic style. This magic style does not require the use of a Magic Cirquit, instead focussing on an organ known as the 'Linker Core' High-class (but not divine) magic is possible with this style, however, one must be born with a Linker Core to be able to use it. A device is also needed to use magic of rank B and higher.

Battle Continuation - A: The abillity to stay alive and fight untill the user recieves a clearly fatal wound.

Knowledge of Foremost Harmony - B: A special abillity that prevents reduction of the effectivenes of an attack, no matter how many times it is used against the same opponent. Knowledge of Foremost Harmony is lost if Madness is achieved.

Noble Phantasm:

Sealing Axe of Devastation - Artherion: An ancient device dug up by a young Scryan archeologist. It was used to seal the corruptive powers that ravaged Keroko. Artherion is an Intelligent Device, taking the form of a double headed axe. Artherion serves as both a melee weapon and a medium to allow Keroko to cast high-ranked Mid-Childan style magic. This device has an advanced AI, allowing self-awareness.

Corruption of the Earth-warder - Black Dragon's Curse: The curse that plaged Keroko, dark energies of the corrupted Aspect of the Black Dragonflight had taken hold of Keroko's Linker Core, slowly but surely destroying the body and rendering Keroko prone to violence and bursts of rage. This energy was sealed with Artherion, however should the seal be released, the full power of the Black Dragon's Curse will re-apear. Keroko will be gain Madness A, but loose Knowledge of Foremost Harmony B This curse cannot be controled, and will lead to the self-destruction of Keroko unless sealed. Once affected, Keroko will go berserk and attack everyone within targeting range. Since the dark energies that run rampant do not differ between friend or foe, and only care for destruction, Keroko's body will eventually burn from the inside out.

Mage of the Black Aspect - Ethereal Mode: Keroko's ultimate Noble Phantasm, Ethereal Mode, requires Artherion to work. This Noble Phantasm allows Keroko to use the Black Dragon's Curse without loosing sanity. Although the stat-increase is not as high as the Black Dragon's Curse, several high-class magic spells become available for use, and the Damage over Time is reduced.

Class abillities are tricky, concidering I haven't really decided on a single class yet. ^_^; It's probably going to be an Archer class, but since Madness is an esential part of the Black Dragon's Curse Noble Phantasm, it was needed.

Nahh....too bad this is the Nanoha FF thread ^^. I don't know if that's very off-topic or not.

Anyway I would probably make a berserker class character too.

[Keroko]

True. Using OC's based on the Nanohaverse into the Fateverse is not exactly nanoha-fanfiction. That's why I said that the cast would get involved, particularely Nanoha, Hayate and Fate. Imagine the shock when they summon people who in the OC-thread are people close to them, but they themselves in this universe don't know.

Vivio can summon Noland for some Chaotic Batshit Insane fun~! :3

Alternatively, Kamen no Maid Guy Noland.

Hmm, I was actually planning on placing this during their highschool days (explaining why they are still on earth) so there wouldn't be a Vivio on their end yet.

Damn.

Hmm.

Signum, maybe :3 She gets an interesting social link with Noland in Gospel of Judas. Barring that, Shamal having a BERSERKER would be rather humorous. Or Rein Zwei. >_>;

Would be the most sensible time to do it.

Some things just don't change, even with a reallity between them, do they?

Man they could be married and they'd still talk trash to each other constantly... Seriously though such a situation would acutally be fairly close to that in the current fic I'm writing (stuck together for an indeterminate length of time and none to happy about it)with presumably similar results.

[Kha]

Summoning OCs? While I've never made one for mirror moon, mine would look something like this:

Spoiler for Archer:

Servant: Archer
Master: Nanoha Takamachi
Alignment: True Neutral
Noble Phantasm: N/A
Strength: D
Endurance: C
Agility: C
Mana: B
Luck: E

Other abilities:

Magic Resistance
Rank: A

The ability to cancel or diminish the effects of sorcery used against oneself. At this rank, spells that are cast with a chant of 3 verses or less are cancelled. It is about as powerful as the protective spiritual wards used against daemons and vengeful spirits, and is a reflection of Archer's divine body while living.

Independent Character
Rank: A

The capacity of Servants to subsist without a Master. At this rank, he is capable of existing for 3 days without an established contract, and is also able to remain for a short period of time even after his spiritual core has subsisted severe damage. This is another example of Archer's living abilities carried into the afterlife.

Eye of the Mind (True)
Rank: B

The ability to effectuate rapid and precise judgments gained through experience and training. Archer is capable of calmly analyzing situations even during a battle, applying strategy and skills to turn the tables in his favor. As long as there is at least a 1% chance of victory, he is able to devise a plan to exploit that possibility.

Clairvoyance
Rank: C

Enhanced visual perception. In his case, achieved through the application of Reinforcement to his eyes. At this rank, Archer is capable of accurately aiming at targets at the very least as far as 4 km and is able to keep track of bodies moving at enormous speed.

Sorcery
Rank: C-

The individual’s skill in traditional spell casting. At this rank, the user has merely learned how to use basic orthodox sorcery.

Further Details

Though Archer himself does not seem to have any special mastery of magecraft beyond his specialty, he possesses extensive knowledge of a conventional, if unusual, branch of sorcery. He is a Tracer, an individual blessed with an Inherent Skill for creating imitations of objects through the use of tracing and projection of mental images to form tangible objects. Though Projection is normally ineffective at creating durable or powerful artifacts, Archer’s unique approach to this craft enables him to materialize enormously powerful and accurate copies of the images recorded in his mind.

By drawing upon the nature of his Relic without the need to deploy it, Archer is capable of recording all information regarding physical constitution, supernatural proprieties and even history of any manner of ancient weapon merely by glancing upon them, and then materialize an astonishingly precise copy. The copies not only possess the same magical and conceptual traits as the originals, but they also retain the memories of the weapons, enabling Archer to read into these records and download any skills or techniques these armaments might have been employed for. His method is not without limitations though, as weapons traced are lowered in power by one rank, and it is not possible to replicate artifacts composed of substances not existent in this world.

In addition, through the use of Alteration, Archer can modify the traced copies to infuse them with new special proprieties. The most effective use of this skill is the crafting of Broken Phantasms, Noble Phantasms overloaded with magical energy which, at the cost of being destroyed after use, exponentially increase their attack power. Whereas most Servants would be reluctant to sacrifice their weapons in such a manner, Archer’s unlimited arsenal allows him to employ this method at will, his particular style consisting of modifying swords to be fired as arrows.

He is also skilled in the basis of both Alteration and Tracing: Reinforcement; the art of temporarily strengthening the construction of objects through the understanding of their nature and perfection of defects in their structure through projection, enhancing the fundamental proprieties of the target, such as an armor’s resistance or the sharpness of a blade. One of the most difficult employments of this craft is the reinforcement of living beings, as insertion of magic energy in other live organisms is a complex process and any mistake in the procedure is perceived as an invasion and subsequently rejected. Archer employs this method on himself to enhance his physical performance, particularly in his eyesight, granting him such precise vision that it approaches a limited form of clairvoyance.

Archer is also in possession of a large intricate bow with 4 arms set perpendicular to one another that looks like a cross when viewed from the front, unlike conventional 2 armed bows. It is said that this bow was forged from the remains of the Thousand Cross that divine beings called Ces'rauva carried during their tour of duty amongst mortal men, pointing even more to Archer's true identity as a failed and embittered Ces'rauva. This bow has been designed to withstand the strain of mounting Devices, such as Noble Phantasms, and propel them as if they were mere arrows.

Similarly, Archer's breastplate and boots are crafted from the same material, while the red cloak he wears is a holy burial cloth that shields Archer from spiritual interference in his surroundings.

Made hastily, several details still missing, but the OC Thread will know why this is so.

Oh the Khrack when Archer finds himself against Keroko's Archer... who fills the role of Gilgamesh.

[NorthernFallout]

Since Ilya don't belong to Nanohaverse, I'll pick....Caro as master this time around! I will make a berserker class later today.

[Kha]

Scratch that earlier post; I got Khrack for Saber instead, with Tausend Kreuz, the Sword that Cleaves Evil!

And of course, due to the Master would then be Fate Testarossa.

Ready later today!

*RUUUUUUUUUUUUUNZ*

[Dusk_]

And now I'm actually considering writing a full length fic...which is rather bad, considering I have midterms this week .

Though, I'm not quite sure who would be Shinji, Nanoha has a severe lack of psychotic wusses...Arisa?
