Servants and Heroic Spirits

Incarnations of spirits of the past be it heroic, demonic or divine all may be summoned although those of immense power may be lesser then they once were. These Servants are divided into Seven groups normally but there are exceptions.

All Servants Posses 3 important factors, Parameters - their innate capabilities, Skills - their special abilities, and Noble Phantasms the unique trump card that is entirely unique and limited to that specific Servant.

Parameters are divided into: Strength, Endurance, Agility, Magic, Luck, and Noble Phantasm with ranks from E to A. There are two exceptions to this, EX rank for that which can not be evaluated and -/+ modifiers for when the parameter is unstable or based on other factors.

Skills are divided into Class and Personal Skills based on if the skill came from thier class or are based on themselves, note that personal skills do not mean exclusive and range in rarity. Skills like Parameters range in ranks from E to A with the same exceptions.

Noble Phantasms are entirely unique to the servant in question and act as ultimate trump cards or in some cases entirely change the nature of the war itself. These once more posses the same rankings and exceptions.
