Fate/Zero Berserker Identity stuff

Revelation scene was so good, brought a tear to my eye. Not sure howcome Lancelot is supposedly known for alot of deeds performed by another? That's how I understood their explanation of his (kinda lame) transformation Noble Phantasm. Anybody know where I can read up on my Lancelot lore, as it pertains to Fate/Zero?

Awesome link, but I still don't understand + Show Spoiler +
why does he have the transformation ability? The wiki doesn't mention any legend of Lancelot doing things under another name, as is hinted at in the anime?

"Until he revealed his identity and drew his sword, Lancelot was always engulfed in a black fog, that prevented enemy Masters from discerning his characteristics. That is his For Someone's Glory: Not For One's Own Glory (己が栄光の為でなくフォー・サムワンズ・グロウリー, ?) Noble Phantasm. Its true purpose, however, was originally deceiving others by allowing the Servant to take the form of other Heroic Spirits; however, due to the Mad Enhancement, it became only a simple disguise of his true identity. Even so, the Master can still force Berserker to take on others' appearances using Command Spells. "

Doesn't mention how he got For Someone's Glory: Not For One's Own Glory. Is it supposedly because he did all the work in service of Arturia? Or Guinevere?

I dunno, did Lancelot ever disguise himself? I know next to nothing about Arthurian Myth. With alot of this stuff, its just best to accept it for what it is. They made King Arthur a girl, so I think that frees them up to do practically anything they want with the legend lol


King Arthur will forever be a girl to me now...


+ Show Spoiler +
As far as Im aware of Arthurian lore and theres a number of different versions, He doesnt do anything of the sort. It may be to expound his many qualities as a knight because in those stories hes the kings champion, paragon of virtue etc etc, Fights challengers on his behalf, also in charge of kicking ass when people question the queens fidelity (the irony slaps you in the face pretty much.)

Up until basically they needed someone to be worthy of fulfulling the grail quest for which Lancelot didnt quite cut it as a character. But hes no.1 champion what to do ?

Lets make him the ultimate betrayer ! This is just a theory ofc, Based on some of the stories Ive read. Its really messy I went through a massive volume when I was a kid and then I find theres like more shit that different people have written. Its kinda like scripture in that whatevers canon makes it in cuz thats what the establishment whatever it is decides.


+ Show Spoiler +
Huh? Make him the ultimate betrayer? Are you saying that Lancelot's affair with Guinevere isn't part of the myth? Or are you just talking about the disguise thing?

And pretty much proven wrong by historical accounts, what's your point? Even the stuff about Okita Souji being a girl wasn't crushed as hard as that was.

Its absolutely a part of the myth. Lancelot is top knight before his affair thats the myth yes. For the disguise its like this.. all of the knights or most of them had like a special quality strong knight at arms or strong in x category, y categoy and so on. Lancelot was good at everything, (well he flopped piety obviously) since he has all these qualities being able to change forms was probably something he could do as a spirit, because well hes Lanceleot and hes badass and he could do everything the best knights who were good at what they did could.

Its just an idea, I agree it was probably just a convenience thing.

If you inferring that Lancelot could become another class other than Berserker, I guess he can spawn due to his skills. He could probably spawn more so as Saber or anything but I guess the main thing is just that he's mad at Arturia so he's Berserker.

Fate/Zero Berserker Identity stuff

+ Show Spoiler +
Revelation scene was so good, brought a tear to my eye. Not sure howcome Lancelot is supposedly known for alot of deeds performed by another? That's how I understood their explanation of his (kinda lame) transformation Noble Phantasm. Anybody know where I can read up on my Lancelot lore, as it pertains to Fate/Zero?


500 post yay ~

http://typemoon.wikia.com/wiki/Berserker_(Fate/Zero)


Awesome link, but I still don't understand + Show Spoiler +
why does he have the transformation ability? The wiki doesn't mention any legend of Lancelot doing things under another name, as is hinted at in the anime?

"Until he revealed his identity and drew his sword, Lancelot was always engulfed in a black fog, that prevented enemy Masters from discerning his characteristics. That is his For Someone's Glory: Not For One's Own Glory (己が栄光の為でなくフォー・サムワンズ・グロウリー, ?) Noble Phantasm. Its true purpose, however, was originally deceiving others by allowing the Servant to take the form of other Heroic Spirits; however, due to the Mad Enhancement, it became only a simple disguise of his true identity. Even so, the Master can still force Berserker to take on others' appearances using Command Spells. "

Doesn't mention how he got For Someone's Glory: Not For One's Own Glory. Is it supposedly because he did all the work in service of Arturia? Or Guinevere?

I dunno, did Lancelot ever disguise himself? I know next to nothing about Arthurian Myth. With alot of this stuff, its just best to accept it for what it is. They made King Arthur a girl, so I think that frees them up to do practically anything they want with the legend lol


King Arthur will forever be a girl to me now...


+ Show Spoiler +
As far as Im aware of Arthurian lore and theres a number of different versions, He doesnt do anything of the sort. It may be to expound his many qualities as a knight because in those stories hes the kings champion, paragon of virtue etc etc, Fights challengers on his behalf, also in charge of kicking ass when people question the queens fidelity (the irony slaps you in the face pretty much.)

Up until basically they needed someone to be worthy of fulfulling the grail quest for which Lancelot didnt quite cut it as a character. But hes no.1 champion what to do ?

Lets make him the ultimate betrayer ! This is just a theory ofc, Based on some of the stories Ive read. Its really messy I went through a massive volume when I was a kid and then I find theres like more shit that different people have written. Its kinda like scripture in that whatevers canon makes it in cuz thats what the establishment whatever it is decides.


+ Show Spoiler +
Huh? Make him the ultimate betrayer? Are you saying that Lancelot's affair with Guinevere isn't part of the myth? Or are you just talking about the disguise thing?


+ Show Spoiler +
Its absolutely a part of the myth. Lancelot is top knight before his affair thats the myth yes. For the disguise its like this.. all of the knights or most of them had like a special quality strong knight at arms or strong in x category, y categoy and so on. Lancelot was good at everything, (well he flopped piety obviously) since since he has all these qualities being able to change forms was probably something he could do as a spirit, because well hes Lanceleot and hes badass and he could do everything.

Its just an idea, I agree it was probably just a convenience thing.

+ Show Spoiler +
If you inferring that Lancelot could become another class other than Berserker, I guess he can spawn due to his skills. He could probably spawn more so as Saber or anything but I guess the main thing is just that he's mad at Arturia so he's Berserker.



+ Show Spoiler +
No Im saying a reason they could have given him the disguise ability is because of his well rounded skillset as a knight if he can do everything other knights could do why cant he imitate other HC's. Am I explaining it wrong ? Its very loose Ill admit but thats as far as what I know takes me. Thats really only if your assuming they actually bothered to find out anything about lore outside of keywords Arthur Pendragon Lancelot Affair Grail

Im saying if we give it the benefit of the doubt, thats probably why they gave him the ability. Otherwise it was probably just convenient.

If we really want to go into the plethora of Arthurian legends all the way up to stuff in modern times, then there are some stuff in it that could explain why. That said, I honestly don't think they did the research, so it was mostly just convenience slapped on by the way the character is portrayed in the series.

P.S. Uesugi route is pretty fun. Also her passive ability is ridiculously imba awesome, especially in tandem with Urza's Accurate Shots
