Anybody else notice that, in the Fate franchise, whenever more than one of the bad guys team-up, one of the bad guys is always of the Assassin class? In Fate/Zero Kirei has Assassin and teams up with Tokiomi/Gilgamesh, in Fate-Stay Night Caster summons her own Assassin (and in Heaven's Feel, Zouken has True Assassin along with Sakura and her stolen/corrupted Servants), and now in this game Julius/Assassin work for Leo/Saber. Julius even reminds me of Fate/Zero Kirei!
There are two important questions you have to answer right to get her to Matrix E. When she asks you who you love most, you can pick her or the girl you saved, but not "Maybe I should save first"; and when she asks you about 'genocide', you have to choose "Genocide is punishable", not "Genocide is unforgiveable". It's a translation thing cuz' Genocide and Mass Slaughter are pretty much the same word in Japanese, and she is guilty of mass slaughter when she wiped out an army that attacked her.
@Exorcistkanda I am so enjoying the novel so far! Jack-chan is adorable and surprisingly sympathetic despite being based off of a legendary serial killer (though it helps that she has an excuse for her original crimes due to her being both insane and possibly possessed), and her Master, Reika, is smoking hot, plus they play off of each other so well despite Reika being a prostitute.
If she sucks, you're using her wrong. It's best to choose her on your second playthrough (after you got a lot of the gear). Equip her with the right outfit and weapon (they both let her regen MP so fast she can spam skills/spells all she wants for every move and you almost never need to use items to refill her) and she will curbstomp anything in the game once sufficiently leveled. A properly outfitted Caster is a gamebreaker, but you have to know how to use her.
These are some ass-long Elevator rides ... although to be honest, that Julius is very Bishounen, so I suppose the Female Protagonist wouldn't have it so bad ;p
Actually, she's a lot smarter than she let's on at first. A lot of that bubbly "I AM YOUR WAIFU!!" act is just a front, because she's afraid her Master will reject once they learn she's one of the most famous monsters in all of Japanese mythology. She has surprising depth if you pay close attention and ignore the sillier dialogue that is part of her act. The problem here is Nasu (the writer) didn't do his research, which is surprising because he's normally very good about that.
Errr... Caster, I hate to break it to you but Anubis isn't the God of the Dead. Osiris is (he's also the Judge of the Dead with the scale and the feather). Anubis is the god of mummification (yes, the Egyptians had seperate gods for mummification and death). A lot of people get that wrong.
Like I said, the "whore" thing is a front, because that's what she thinks will please her Master, all the while she drops tidbits of her true personality as a way of testing the waters (if the Master seems to react poorly to her moments of serious, or responds wrong to certain questions, she keeps up the playful airhead act but never truly opens up to you).
