Maybe not Barghest herself, but I do recall once reading of an English church where, centuries ago, it was claimed that a black dog burst through the doors one day and tore up the place, with claw marks being found on the church doors
Barghest felt really out of place among the other faeries. She had morals, she was self reflecting, she was self sacrificing, she was loyal to her role as a defender of her people for as long as possible.
Fate might be one of the best current franchises for the Tragic Hero trope. So many fascinating characters who fight like hell, but are faced with an inescapable doom. It's so good, but so damn soul crushing at the same time
At least she gets a significantly better life in Chaldea. And you can choose her Ascension level, meaning the Black Dog phase never has to happen. As for her curse, is it gone by now?
I do want to say something in particular about her third ascension being depressing like Baobhan Sith's, and it's specifically tied to story completion. If you haven't completed LB 6, she'll ask for a brave knight to slay her, but if you've completed LB 6, she states that for the sake of the knight she slew, she refuses to let the Curse of Britain take hold of her. It especially reflects this with her sharing her voices lines with her Gawain Knight first Ascension, while Sith becomes utterly broken by confronting her true self, and so has unique voice lines to reflect her 'new' old self being surfaced.
For the stormy weather skill: I don’t remember the exact name or details of the legend. But basically a guy gets a troll to build a cathedral in a single night, and the troll then turns to stone when the sunlight touched it
It's a bummer I haven't reached this far into the story so I can't watch these yet :/ I started playing 2 months ago and its taking a while to get through the story... but I'll be back to watch once I'm caught up ~ keep up the great work !
Nice video to go along with our new sweet ce with our two Gawains for Christmas I think berserker would fit as a default class but that is mostly because they are a beast and rider or breaker seems to fit those best The storms and eating them to gain power are tied to her LB6 self and having devoured Foul Weather to claim their power I'm pretty sure I wonder how much Morgan actually knew about the coming calamities. It's implied that being Gawain might have also been putting a cap on the curse but it was unclear if that was intentional or not. I am proud of her though she did everything in her power not to give in to the curse until she literally was not able to anymore and even then she was still fighting. Barghest was a good addition to the Chaldea doggo club
@@CrazyYurie I remember Oberon saying it was I couldn't remember if it was stated if Morgan knew and picked her partly on purpose Morgan knew about the two calamities from their first iterations before she brought all of fairy kind back but I don't think it's ever stated she knew for a fact it was Barghest I could very well be wrong about that
If someone interest in the legend of Foul weather. You can find those legend in A Dictionary of Fairies: Hobgoblins, Brownies, Bogies, and Other Supernatural Creatures. The books is free to read in internet and it also contains various element of fairy legend.
If it the record then yes but as for the origin I don’t know, still the book can be traced back to 1976 meaning it has some merit. I come across the book thank to one of the member of fgo tv troupe forum introduce it during Jp release of lostbelt 6 discussion. Hope it helps you.
Tbh I dislike tam lin as term used by the English version cause it didn’t match the story of the fairy knights at all the only one that it matches its actually the only non fairy, fairy knight galahad aka mashu, why? Tam Lin was a HUMAN knight that forced to serve under the fairy queen, the fairy queen did all kinds of bad shit like changing him into various forms like a tree for example to torture him for fun and it’s an involuntary servitude also tam Lin is the name of the person (altho ironically if u wanted to use it as a tittle the artificial humans fit that bill better since they are humans forced to serve as cannon fodder for morgan and the other fairies) meanwhile most fairy knights served morgan willingly and the power that she grants them helps them to not degenerate in more fetal forms and they willing accepted this pacts, also the ballad of tam lin dosnt have tam Lin as the one that saves the day but the human girl that tam lin knocked up via magic(yes fairy myths be weird like that)helps tam Lin escape the grasp of the fairy queen which by the way wanted to sacrifice tam Lin to Hell, also there is the fact that in the jp version aka what is actually writen in story they never used tam lin in their writen text in game even after na and they showed it in Japanese only once on a livestream but than never got used in game(hell on the livestream for the fairy knight cup the lotto event they showed tam lin cup when in game its still called fairy knight cup) also summer 8 is another event where u know they are still called fairy knights, infact the origin of them using tam lin dosnt come from type moon but came from aniplex figure marketing in which for some reason in kanji there is fairy knight, but than in romanji English there is tam lin, for some reason that got adopted in na but jp never uses it ingame aka I don’t consider it a correct term to use cause it’s litteraly has almost zero stuff in common with the characters and the original story theme’s apart from the transformations as u would put it I would give it a fucking F to burn in hell(also here is some funny cursed knowledge tam lin was a common Scottish name like today is John or James so yes u are calling the fairy knights John gawain, John lancelot and John tristan have fun not being able to take that tittle seriously anymore cause I sure don’t) but that aside u will be happy to know summer 8 picks up from their bond 5s and gives the fairy knights a good development of character on all 3 of them that were in lb6.
The NP flames when she strikes with galatine also change color depending on the ascension, just saying since I think you forgot to say it or I am dumb and didn't pay good attention, also just managed to finish lb6 the writing was very good and the fluffy god sure was hard to defeat took me like 70 tries without leylines
Fun fact There is a lot of Black dogs in British folklore You have Church grims You have Barghest Then there is a few specific ones Bodmin beast (Sometimes depicted as a black dog or black cat like creature) The black dog of Ivelet Bridge and quite a few others In some ways the symbol of a black dog is probably one of the most frequent in English folklore
I never got to ask this but why aren't bageko, melusine, tonelico, corgi, and etc are tinkerbell sized since their fairies, also I'm referencing the fairy found on kara no kyoukai episode 6 where the fairy is really small.
honestly it depresses me to see the state she is in but what I don’t understand is that some of these forms you shouldn’t canonically go back to but it’s depicted as you can in-game? It’s weird but, like baobhan sith, in the future it is shown that they are in their previous forms, but you would think the master ingame has all of them maxed no? It’s weird and I really don’t get it, but if all of that is the case does that mean baobhan sith is able to go back to the forms where she isn’t literally melting? Does that apply to the rest of the characters
Heya ! So, a few years ago, me and a friend were working on a horror story about hellhounds (sadly the project never ended up being realized, but we had a good time at least), and as such, I ended up dumping hours in research about barghest. Here's some interesting details: - Hellhounds or barghests are the devil's hunting dogs, they hunt people who made pacts with the devil in order to drag their souls to hell. They're supposed to be much bigger than the average dog (nowhere near the size of Barghest's final form tho lol), having black fur and bright red eyes, which are actually on fire (that's metal). - The skill "Foul Weather" is a reference to another trait of hellhounds: they affect the weather around them. Sudden torrential rain and electric storms are seem as signs that a hellhound (or more than one) are hunting nearby. Also, the cathedral in Cornwall refers to the most famous hellhound story: during a mass in a stormy night, a hellhound invaded the church, paralyzing everyone in fear, and circulated among the believers, as if searching for someone specific. It then proceeded to kill two men, and disappear with the flash of a lightning. The name more associated with this specific hellhound is "Black Shuck". - Hellhounds can be omens of impending death, yes, but they can also be fierce murder machines, tearing people down to pieces, or downright making them go up in flames. It is said that once they catch your scent, they will never, never stop hunting you. Not even holy ground stops them (as in the previous story demonstrated). Some stories also imply that people who are being hunted will see hellhounds everyone, never finding a true moment of peace, until they go insane. Sinister stuff. Anyways, I'm a somewhat recent growing Fate fan, your servant accuracy videos are some of my favorite things to watch lately, so keep up the great job !
Barghests are not Hellhounds Fun fact in Northumbrian folklore Barghests can be depicted as a house ghost since the etymology of the name is hard to pin point The only definitive is that Gheist = Ghost So barghest can mean Buhrg-heist - town-ghost Berg-geist- mountain ghost Bär-geist - Bear-ghost - The one that the black dog version comes from So in actual fact A Barghest is more of a spirit than a demonic creature On another note , there is Church-grims these are from Nordic and English folklore Often when a new graveyard was built sometimes the locals would bury a dog in one of the corners The belief being that the dogs spirit would then protect the graveyard And it was often black dogs that were chosen So kind of opposite-hellhounds
Ah by the way english patch for fate extra ccc is out I do suggest you check it out cause it actually has a lot of development for various people that otherwise the character wouldn’t make much sense to you one of the biggest one is Elizabeth bathory in ccc she has big changes in her character to the events of the game that Carry over the the Elizabeth of today in fgo so i definetly suggest u check it out also ccc is one of nasu’s best works so all to gain kek yeh I know a bit unrelated but just wanted to let u know if u didn’t know
@@CrazyYurie they even added in battle subtitles that weren’t even there in the og game, also even if u search it on RU-vid u gonna find a link to it(iirc a channel by the name snowyaria has a video with the news of the releace of the patch plus link to it but anyway it’s preaty recent as in not even 2 days old) and there is already some tutorials on how to install the patch so yeh. (Warning ccc is extremely horny)
Barghest my beloved. Aside from Castoria, our noble knight here was the Faerie I felt the most sorry for. I’m glad she’s in a better place at Chaldea. And as much as I like Castoria, Barghest is the best girl from LB6
i dont think persentage on the numeral of the saint is important (its just a game mechanic) unlike the rank - when borrowed skill is rank B and orginal rank EX, its important what skill does but not persentages
