cʜᴀʟᴅᴇᴀ pʜᴀɴᴛᴀꜱᴍ 4 [OPEN POST]

[formidable]

Premise There is a lull to be sure even in Chaldea where work is continually being done in order to restore human history. But the work is important, as it is dangerous and even the Servants and their Master need to recover from the various types of combat situations they find themselves in. So sure, lull it is, but it's honestly never a dull day in Chaldea. With Servants like these? Impossible. "Chaldea Phantasm" is an open sandbox RP post for players to roleplay in the setting based on the mobile game, Fate Grand Order and the Fate franchise. You can play out scenarios between Master and Servant(s), Servants fighting each other, monsters, material/event grinding, AUs, etc. This post will have actual prompts that can be used at your leisure! Otherwise, feel free to write up your own scenario within the presented setting. A) Oh Nooooooo Nurse! You just came back from gathering materials or a particularly nasty battle (curse those wyverns)! The infirmary is there for Servants and Master to rest in although they better hope that a certain vigilant nurse isn't there to meet them. Trying to heal those cuts and burns are the least of your worries when amputation is the cure. Better hope some of the other Servants with healing skills are there instead! In the meanwhile, the infirmary is stocked with all the basic first aid, medicine, and even vitamin gummies. Yum! B) FOUVASION...! How's our furry friend been doing? How adorable, Fou's been running in the hallway. And seen in the kitchen. And then the training room. And then behind that plant. And under the bed. And then on the ceiling. And then a giant Fou-kun in the hall... Uh oh. Maybe one of the Casters have gone hog wild in cloning our best runner. Chaldea is filling up to the brim with Fou!! What do you do!? C) Wildcard What it says on the tin. Basic Guidlines ➢ In the subject line or in your opening thread, please say if you're opting in or out for spoilers! ➢ If you have a fanmade Servant, please try to link to information or have a quick summary of your character! Likewise with cross-canon characters with a Fate/AU. ➢ Be kind and courteous to one another about spoilers, please! ➢ If stuff gets mildly NSFW or something just mark your threads and we'll be good to go! ➢ It's another lighthearted day in Chaldea...

A NEW CHALLENGER APPEARS and gets fou'd for her trouble. (Spoilers OK!)

[featherdarting]

[ooc: here is some info!]

[So, on her Saber's recommendation, Ayaka has been practicing her Formalcraft, which is basically some kind of extremely ritual-based magic involving locations and a bunch of other stuff. In other words, we have no idea what it does, but Ayaka here's got a knack for it.

What does this mean? This means she accidentally teleported herself into Chaldea.

... And then Fou found her. Whether it's the original or one of the existing clones is uncertain at this time, but now there are more Fous thanks to him pawing his way into the site of a ritual gone wrong.

They aren't birds, but Ayaka is now covered in them. This is not okay.]

W....WHAT IN THE WORLD IS GOING ON HEEEEEEERE-

[shinssin]

[Yan Qing just happens to pass by when he sees Ayaka. That's a lot of Fous, but is he going to help her? Nah. He watches on from a distance because one, she's not his master and two, he's an asshole.]

Hahahaha! Well, well, well! What do we have here? You're not part of the staff, but you're not Servant either. And you can't be from the Mage's Association... Hm, hm. I see. In normal circumstances, I have to kill you.

[She will never escape handsome dangerous men. This is just her life now!!!]

[capemania]

Ugh. Pipe down, woman.

[As amusing as it was to see her react, Wilfield didn't have it in him to sit back. So he cast a simple wind spell to summon a gust of wind to blow the Fou away. Of course, they would only be off of her for a temporary amount of time.

He could sense mana from her. So from his perspective, he couldn't see why she couldn't handle such an easy problem.]

You are a magus, correct? It would've been simple to cast some wind sorcery to blow those devils away.

Florence Nightingale | Berserker | Spoilers are fine

[disinfection]

1. A Queen in Her Castle

[Of course the most likely person you're going to meet in the infirmary is a nurse of steel, the lady with a lamp, Florence Nightingale herself. You've probably heard the rumors, seen the threats of amputation. Is a broken arm or a deep cut really that much of a big deal to go to her?

Possibly, yes. If she's not attending to anyone she appears to be working on some kind of book? Possibly. It's also possible it's just notes on patients.

Either way, do be careful. Her pistol is always at hand and a bullet wound definitely is an excuse for amputation.]

2. Unsanitary

[One Fou was one thing. She could shuffle Fou out of the infirmary and spray down some disinfectant. The fact is there are more than one now and that? That is aggravating. As soon as she throws one out another one takes it's place.]

Annoying! Frustrating! I need more disinfectant...!

[She needs some help before she heads towards the gun again.]

3. Wildcard

[Maybe you've dragged Nightingale away from the infirmary. Maybe you're visiting her for non medical reasons. This is the option for you! Just throw your ideas at me.]

rama | saber (spoilers ok!)

[indestructiblade]

A: So now the tables turn.

[Rama is in perfect condition right now, and having not gone on any expeditions, he's decided to help Nightingale out in her infirmary. Except, are you sure you want him helping?]

So before Nightingale jumps you and says something about needing to destroy all your pathogens or whatever, tell me what happened and I'll show you to a bed. Don't worry, she won't amputate anything! I think there's a rule against that right now.

[He's got a serene and earnest smile on his face. Actually, it's also kind of smug as fuck.]


B: Fou or Foul?

[With that many tiny critters ready to Swoop And Attack, with their soft fluffiness, Rama really has to do something about this before another Fou invades. Basically, he remember watching a movie similar to this in the entertainment room (it was Gremlins) and it didn't end well. So, don't kill the critters, because Fou would be mad but also they could accidentally clone more.

They need a plan.]

I can't believe I'm saying this but.

...

GET THE RAMA BAG.

[Yep.]


C: WILDCARD

[What it says on the tin, let's do anything!]

DID SOMEONE SAY RAMA BAG

[disinfection]

[The Fous are becoming quite a hassle. No matter how many times she shoo's them away (she's fairly sure they're faster than her gun and punching them doesn't seem to do anything). She had started spraying them with water when she hears the cry from down the hall.

She doesn't have the exact bag but she makes a makeshift carrying device with a belt and a sheet before running.]

Where is the patient?!

B

[dressoteric]

Heh, shouldn't we call it the Fou bag now?

[TEAM SABER READY TO GO HERD SOME FOUS.]

get ur pun ass outta here, B

[robindarich]

[Robin is covered in Fous. Some nestled in his hair, some on his shoulders. One is in his pocket, peeking out.

And COCK ROBIN, his cute little birb, is not happy about having his usual resting place invaded, too. It's flying over to Rama as soon as he shows and lands on his head, squawking.

Robin is squawking, too.]

No, get a net! A net!

[HE KNOWS HE'S A HUNTER]

Caster [Giang Huong] | spoilers okay

[emotive]

[ OOC: Servant BG and Stats. Spoilers will be marked in subject line! ]

A. Infirmary Monster

[So your Luck Rank may have bailed you out and instead of the Berserker Nurse, you are met with a cheerful fairy girl instead. She's in the infirmary, ready to heal and seal all hurts and wounds (thanks, Gratitude A).

... Although, while she was waiting for any party to come back, you're going to find someone wrapped up in white rolled bandages instead because someone got bored and got into the medical supplies. Oops.]

... Oh, dear! I know I'm supposed to help our Master, but it looks like I'm in a bit of a bind myself! Ahhh, how did it get so confusing?! I just wanted to see how to wrap these properly...!

[Caster is helpful, really. She'll do some healing eventually.]

B. A Peaceful Fouvasion

[Wow, all those Fous sure are troublesome. Some of them even got into the food supplies, so that'll be another week of replenishing those food stuffs along with material gathering. But not all is white and fluffy chaos. In fact, in the middle of the pandemonium, Caster can be found sleeping, enveloped in a giant fluffy Fou-kun who is laying on all fours in another hallway off to the side. There open bags of snacks, like chips and cookies, and cans of tea laying around the giant Fou and the guilty Caster in question. They both look quite content although, with the giant creature, it's hard to tell. It might just be staring at you menacingly and daring you to come close and disturb Giang Huong's slumber.

She stirs a little, mumbling in her nap.]

Nnnn. Too many ghosts to fight...

C. Wildcard

[We can do anything!]

A

[disinfection]

[Said Berserker Nurse was out of the infirmary for a quick visit to a Servant who was too stubborn to actually come by. She needed some supplies when she sees a particular fairy all wrapped up in clean bandages. One look tells her that said fairy isn't injured at all so she didn't need them.

The pun didn't help either.]

What are you doing?! I'm going to have to throw all those out and resupply the infirmary! Just hold still--

[She's getting a pair of scissors. Jeeze, Casters can be a pain.]

A

[painalty]

[Caster, why. Why is something always happening in the infirmary. Why. Sanson is going to take a moment to stare in disbelief at a mummy keeping vigil in the infirmary.]

...You could have asked any of us for help.

[But without further ado, he begins trying to see if he can unwind the bandages from her.]

c-c-c-comBo breaker

[unvictory]

[If this fou thinks she's gonna back down just because it's trying to act tough, it's got another thing coming. The moment she sees a mess she instinctively feels the need to clear it all up, especially given Caster's at the source of it all, but first thing's first. She needs to wake her up.

So Boudica approaches the pair, giving her hands a sharp clap.]

Alright, wake up! You can't sleep here!

[Even side halls must have their uses. They can't be blocked by sleepy casters and giant fous.]

Charles-Henri Sanson | no extremely game-breaking spoilers pls, names are fine, salem is fine

[painalty]

A: TRUST ME, I'M A DOCTOR

[Nightingale isn't the only one keeping vigil in the Chaldea infirmary. If you're lucky...well, relatively lucky, this guy will meet you. While he doesn't exactly advocate amputation or bullet wounds as a treatment, he has also spent a good chunk of his life executing people. One might say he holds both life and death in his hands, as a doctor and a headsman.

The moment you step in, Sanson's eyes are quick to scrutinize you and your hurts. And that look in your eyes.]

I know what you're thinking. No, you do not need to be amputated.

B: A FOU-LISH MISTAKE

[There's something white and fluffy and moving. You're probably tempted to bag it, to shoot something at it, to do anything to stop the onslaught of Fous. It's understandable, to be wound up like this considering the current invasion Chaldea is facing.

Except that, whatever it was you shot at, or tried to hit, was it really a Fou?]

Ow!

[No, but good job on taking aim at Sanson's head of hair. He whips around, one hand over his head.]

I'm not a Fou!

WILDCARD

[I'M AT WORK, HIT ME WITH ANOTHER PROMPT. Sanson can be found at the infirmary making notes, checking records, or just...sound asleep at his desk. Geez, all you people going directly to him...

Why would you want a state-sanctioned killer to heal you.]

b

[unvictory]

[It may be hard to turn around, considering...she's got a pretty tight grip on his hair with her hand.]

Ow?

[That's not the usual fou fou...oh, wait.

Crap.

She lets go immediately.]

...err. I'm sorry. [A beat.] Maybe...you should find yourself a hat to wear? Just for now?

[He can wear one of Marie's spares.]

marie antoinette ♡

[guilloqueen]

a. horsing around

[if injured servants don't want to deal with Hard Lovin' TLC in the infirmary, marie's here to help! her noble phantasm might not provide the biggest of heals, but... it comes with a horse! servants in the area get a minor heal and have their status conditions removed, while marie stands near a cart of pastries.]

I know it isn't much, but I hope I can help you recover from your time on the battlefield. When I'm feeling under the weather, I love to eat my favorite dessert—ah, Sophie, please be gentle with them...!

[a horse may or may not be licking other servants' faces if they get too close.]

b. a queen's duty

[alternatively, maybe marie is the one who took a few too many buster cards to the face. she may be a nigh unkillable tank, but absorbing all those hits racks up eventually, even with invincibility.

she's nursing an ugly scratch on her cheek courtesy of a ghost, but when she notices someone who might start doting on her, she waves them off and covers the mark on her face with a free hand.]

Hm? Oh, please don't worry about me—I'm as fine as a newly bloomed flower, hehe!

c. vive la fourance

[and, last but not least, it looks like marie is utterly enthused by the fou flood. there are fous on her pigtails, fous on her dress, fous underneath her hat...]

Vive la France~

[fou-fou fou fouuuuuu~ comes the chant parroted back to her... oh dear.]

d. wildcard

( hmu with anything you'd like to do with her! )

a

[dressoteric]

[They say it's not easy being beautiful. It's especially not easy being beautiful when your looks come with Target Focus. The Chevalier d'Eon may likewise be a tank, but taking all those hits to save everyone else is a rough life.

d'Eon is clutching an ice pack to their head, and instead of wearing gloves they are sporting bandages on their hands. Their face is scratched up an bruised, as well.

The horse recognizes d'Eon right away and proceeds to lick their face. Thanks, they were cursed from their last battle, too. Despite the pain, they chuckle and reach out to stroke Sophie's muzzle.]

Bonjour, Sophie. It's good to see you too. [In more ways than one.]

A

[robindarich]

Gah!

[It's Robin's own fault for holding out a Golden apple for it to munch on. Sophie was just thanking him. There's horse drool all over his face when he looks towards Marie...

And some of his hair is sticking up in a cowlick. Er, horselick. Nasty.]

Relax, she's fine.

[AS FOR HIM? He at least gets the slobber off his face with his hand and wipes it on whatever is nearby. Someone's back that isn't paying attention to him. They look over their shoulder to see who's touching them but Robin has already ditched them to peer at the pastries Marie's been handing out.]

What're these?

c

[emotive]

[Caster, before taking her long snack-induced coma nap, is actually riding on top of a giant Fou-kun. She sees Rider, the French Queen, if she remembers correctly and waves to her energetically.]

Rider!! These Fous make fine steeds! Maybe you should make one into your Noble Phantasm!!

[Giang's just excited okay, this is like a kid in a field of sheep]

marie alter 💔 avenger

[decapita]

( i don't have a proper info post set up for malter here, but the general gist is that she's a physical manifestation of all the negative beliefs the french people had about marie, whether they were true or not. so she hates her people for subjecting her to death, she's a promiscuous sadist, she recklessly wastes her people's money on herself... think the "other marie(?)" in her second interlude, ramped up to 11. she dresses similar to marie, but with a darker color scheme and a very prominent scar on her neck. )

a. let her eat cake

[if your luck rank is nonexistent, you'll probably run into this twisted version of the french queen instead of the usual one. despite the blatant health violations, she's thought it appropriate to be hanging out in the infirmary, using a scalpel (?!) to serve herself a piece of cake. if you approach her, she'll just stare at you mid-bite, then rudely dismiss you with a frown.]

Why are you looking at me like that? I have no reason to help you. Now leave me alone—my brioche isn't going to eat itself.

b. wildcard

( likewise with marie proper, feel free to hit me with anything else here! )

a. no brioche in the infirmary

[disinfection]

[There are many things wrong with this. Not just because of the fact that their Master summoned an Alter of Marie. No, the fact that she's decided that eating in the infirmary (when she's not a patient) and using medical equipment to do so is appropriate.]

Leave you alone? This is hardly the place to be eating. Get out.

boudica | spoil away

[unvictory]

1.

[For one reason or another, it seems your usual nurse is absent today. Those dreading approaching Nightingale for any concerns with their health may breathe a sigh of relief upon entering the infirmary and noticing that in her place stands Boudica, the accompanying nurse outfit she's wearing a pretty big clue as to why she's here. It's a standard fit though, so keep your sexy nurse fantasies to yourself!!

Or don't, bracket text ain't a cop.

Either way, you're next up.]

Don't be shy. Just tell big sis what the problem is and she'll do her best to help. ❤

2.

[During the rampant fouvasion, Boudica can be found where Boudica can usually be found: the kitchen. Even if there's a strange atmosphere in Chaldea today, she isn't going to let a legion of furry fiends get in the way of preparing meals for everyone.

Unfortunately, a curious fou wanders towards the cutting board as she's chopping vegetables. Close enough that she has to stop and lift him away.]

Ah, that's dangerous! You don't want to lose a paw, do you?

[And that's where you come in, as Boudica's holding a knife in one hand, a fou in the other, standing right beside a boiling pot.

It couldn't look more incriminating...]

3.

[OR WILDCARD ME IT'S ALL GOOD.]

1

[sunnymerc]

[Finally, Saber's turn. She is here for one reason and one reason only. She slides onto a gurney, head propped up on one hand and her other hand on her hip. She is in her underwear.

No one at any point told her she needed to disrobe for this checkup.]

Big sis, I was fine up until I saw you. Now, I've come down with something that only your nursy love can soothe.

[That's not true. There is actually a Fou's butt sticking out of her hair, clearly having gotten stuck. she is down with a severe case of head-Fous.]

robin hood | archer | spoilers ok

[robindarich]

A

[He's no doctor but 9 times out of 10? Amputation is not the cure for who enters the infirmary tent. The basic first aid, healing salves, and tourniquets get the job done depending on the injury and its severity.

Raised by a druid and living in the forest for most of his life gives him enough knowledge of medicine that he's able to help out whoever asks him and he feels like he's somewhat capable of assisting. Most of it is left to.... Nightingale. And everyone else.

But he's hanging out somewhere.

He's looking at those vitamin gummies blankly as he helps out a patient. One who's too terrified of the nurse and begged for his help when he was standing around doing nothing. The gummies he found are shaped like bears.

What is this? Candy? For kids??? SURE LOOKS LIKE IT. CAN'T BE MEDICINE.

He eats one. It's green.

And gross.

HE SPITS IT OUT!!!! IMMEDIATELY!!!!]

Medicine.

B

[Along the way, the Fou Invasion has gone wrong and Robin has gotten caught up in...

Something that has him holding his hood around his face and avoiding EVERYONE. There are two strange lumps beneath his hood, on top of his head, and another larger one under his cape.

He walks by quickly in the halls, so maybe you might get a glimpse of what he wants to keep a secret as his cloak flaps with his speed.

It's

a

fluffy

Fou

tail. Kill him. End his misery.]

C

[WILDCARD ME!!!!]

B

[ninanna]

[You can't catch a glimpse when the person in question BARRELS INTO YOU. In Robin's attempt to escape he turns the corner too sharp and smacks his face right into the stomach of a floating goddess.

The collision forces her to the ground, and shes rubbing her head and re-affixing her crown.]

O-ow...

Kairi Shishigou (Spoilers are fine)

[shishigou]

[A Wild Magus Appears]

[Kairi Shishigou had just been killing time in Trifas, waiting for the night the plan could be enacted. And of course, wandering around the places mages would go, he's fallen into some sort of trap.

Now, he's standing in the middle of some shiny sterile hallway, scruffy and smelling of blood and gunpowder. Needless to say, he looks and feels out of place, though the master's Command Seal is still plain as day on his hand.]
... Hello?

[He's looking around, before moving to a corner of a junction, gun not drawn but hand on it, ready to do so.]
Anybody here?

[Parting the Fou Sea]
[The influx of fluffy magic rodents is a pretty big problem, most would say. Kairi's barely noticed it, though, since they seem to be avoiding him like the plague. He'll just walk through a Fou infested common area and they scurry to the side as if deflected by an invisible barrier. Apparently, they don't care much for this magus' particularly ominous aura.]

Have there always been so many of these... weird, Merlin squirrel things in here?
[He sits down with a thump on a couch, sending a few more Fous scampering off.]

[Wildcard]
[Hit me up with whatever!]

a wild magus

[disinfection]

[Gunpowder. Blood. It's a mixture of smells that draws Nightingale in from the infirmary. It's a scent she can never forge even after so many years--

She stares at the magus. This definitely isn't her Master. Yet he's here and clearly a Master. Her hand goes for her own gun warily.]

Why are you here? [The smell of blood is thick on him but she doesn't think he's wounded. ...Something she would have preferred.]

Nikola Tesla | Archer | Spoilers all good

[teleforce]

A. It hurts and stings!!

[Tesla is . . . not a good patient. You'd think that his torso being covered in bicorn horn lacerations would slow him down a little, but nah. Never mind that that Guts skill is probably all that's keeping him conscious at the moment, he's insisting on sitting on the edge of the infirmary bed instead of lying back, and whoever's treating him better watch him like a hawk, because he sure is eyeing the exit like he's planning to bolt. (GET IT?)]

I appreciate your concern, of course--urgh--but this is silly! It's nothing--nothing but a flesh wound, and why should we Heroic--nngh--Spirits worry about such trivial things? This is keeping me from some very important work, you know . . .

B. The Trouble With Foubbles

[The Fou hordes are a problem, of course, but the kind of problem Tesla likes. Indeed, he's humming happily to himself as he strides the Chaldea halls, inspecting the facility as a plan starts to take shape.]

If we were to electrify the floors and walls of a corridor and then lure the creatures in . . . yes, yes, that's it!

C. Wildcard

[Or throw somethin' else at me!]

late but trouble with foubbles

[worldfaithpride]

[As he's wandering the halls, a pack of Fous run past him with a strange little robot on their heels. It looks like one of Babbage's creations except--why, yes, it's electric. Instead of shooting bullets, though, it's currently trying to shoot nets at the Fous and missing. One probably bounces off Tesla harmlessly.

Around the corner there's a great (literal) roar of laughter.]

Yes! This is what we need! If I can secure a room I can make ten, no, fifty, no, a hundred! It should be easy to capture the creatures then.

[Then he turns the corner. His mood sinks.]

You! Don't start thinking that you'll solve this!

Fujino Asagami | Archer | Spoilers all good

[dothetwist]

A. It doesn't hurt OR sting, actually

[It's not some grave combat injury that brings Fujino to the infirmary today, though she is bleeding a fair bit. Rather, she dropped a bowl in the cafeteria and it broke, and she cut up her fingers pretty badly reaching for the jagged shards of porcelain.

So here she is, walking into the infirmary, leaving, um, a slightly grisly trail on the floor in her wake.]

Excuse me . . . ? Is anyone here? I was told I was hurt.

B. Foupocalypse Now

[You know what sucks? Being vision impaired when there are a billion fluffy rabbit things running around. Fujino's sort of at a loss here, her cane whacking into a Fou like every other step as she picks her way through the halls very, very carefully--she doesn't want to step on one of the poor things.

Yet.]

C. Wildcard!

[Hit me uuuuup]

Atalanta | Archer | Spoilers okay

[onyeesan]

1. A New Sort of Cage

[She... doesn't like the infirmary. It reeks of things that most Servants don't even notice. It's too small. She shouldn't be here. So what if she had been bleeding down the hallway? She could fix it herself. The skeleton had managed to land a lucky blow so it was up to her to fix it.

Which is why Atalanta is sneaking into the infirmary to steal some bandages. She clutches her injured arm as her tail swings slightly in irritation, ears pinning back.]

2. The Hunt Begins

[It was a true hunt. Well, okay, there would be no killing this time but hunting was something she was quite good at. Small snares have been set up all along the corridors, some baited with small bits of leftover food.

There might be movement near one trap then whatever shape was near it was gone--only to appear next to another. Once their movement was stopped it's clear it's just Atalanta. Apparently trying to catch Fous meant that she was using that famous speed of hers.

Maybe someone should get her to stop before someone gets hurt, though.]

Wildcard

[Come at me.]
