Class: Caster
Alias: William Shakespeare, William, William Shagspear, Will, Bard, Liam Swan
True Name: William Shakespeare
History: Born to an affluent businessman in Stratford, England. Shakespeare's exact life details are unknown, including the degree of education he obtained. Half of his life, including a period of seven years is a mystery as to what exactly he did and what happened. What we do know is that he was first recognized as a playwright by Robert Greene who posted a scathing comment about him and his writing. His earliest works were comedies and histories for the most part but his later career was filled with tragedies and is one of the most prolific of the playwrights of his time for his surviving plays. His published works which were collected after his death into the first folio number at 37 with a number of lost plays and plays thought to possibly belong to him. His fame has stretched round the world and his plays have been translated into multiple languages and he is considered the iconic English Playwright. A critic stated that his four greatest work of a collection of several masterpieces are "Othello, Hamlet, King Lear and MacBeth", and many will tell you that most modern literature can find it's source in a Shakespearean work.
Personality: Shakespeare for all intents and purposes would come off to most as the quintessential English gentleman. His chief loyalty is to the 'Story' and he will do whatever it takes, be it using deception, trickery or whatever it takes that he may witness the events of a 'Grand Tale' of the like that has yet to be seen. The beauty of this vision tends to mean that instead of taking the perspective of a participant, he takes an 'Authorial' third person perspective to events. He treats people based on how worthy of being a 'protagonist' they are. The more worthy they are of being the protagonist of a tale, the nicer he is to them. He is narcissistic, often dropping quotes authored by himself or coming up with new ones, and keeps very much up to date with modern trope culture. He has a very apt way to peer into the human condition and see right through people, which he will often show in short witty phrases.
Ultimately a non combatant, his interest in whatever is going on is based entirely on how exciting it is. The more exciting, the greater his interest. The more mediocre. The more likely he is to wander off. He loves his own works and keeps constant tabs on the most recent versions and thoughts of his works and will often comment on them. Expressing horror when people do not recognize whom he is or know of his works.
In short, he can be considered a trickster, which he will admit, due to his love of the story beyond all else and willingness to do what it takes to create the most epic story ever told, as the world is such a story to him.
Weapon of choice: Shakespeare tends to use his Master as a weapon. Making them an assassin of sorts and letting them do the fighting. If forced he might try and defend himself with a cane or a sword if necessary. But he avoids those situations and prefers to make use of others and distractions.
Noble Phantasm: First Folio: When the Curtain Rises, The Applause Shall Be As Ten Thousand Thunders
Shakespeare's ultimate play which he invokes. When invoked, the effects may vary based on the circumstances when invoked. It replays scenes from the target's life that will be the most mentally damaging to the target. As Shakespeare puts it 'It inflicts despair." Meant for the spirits of Noble Heroic Spirits, this Theater phantasm prevents a target from receiving or dealing physical damage. The Phantasm is anti-Unit
Skills:
Territory Creation: Shakespeare can create an area to benefit him as a magus. He prefers to create a study so he can weave stories.
Enchant: He can add abilities to others important items and give his master buffs to make them better fighters. He is the audience, inquiring about the master's every state of mind.
Self-Preservation: As long as his master is safe he can escape from almost all crisis. He won't fight, preferring high risk, high reward tactics.
The King's Men: A lesser magecraft version of his Noble Phantasm, however it is not one. He summons and controls non combatant shadow actors and will decide what they say, and they will mimic the chosen target to keep the illusion and it is a very hard magecraft to break out of.
Physical appearance:
Shakespeare stands at a smidgen over 5 feet, 9 inches, with lightly tanned skin, golden eyes, and brown hair which is cut messily framed with a beard with a light point. His frame is lean with very little muscle.
Clothing and Armor : Shakespeare's attire is a modernized version of what he would have worn when alive. with A green frock coat with gold and white lining over a black vest with a green tunic, an Orange belt, dark brown pants tucked into brown boots with orange ribbons above the brim of the boot. He wears a white shirt under this with an orange ascot, some gold chains and a black cloak. He also has black gloves.
