Because all hypnosis is self-hypnosis, right?

Hmm. I tried experimenting a bit with this one. Somebody told me about a cute evil tsundere and I hit up her wiki page. Then I was inspired by the idea of her unintentionally leading a sub master into a trance, while not wanting to at all. I'm not sure how it turned out.

So, is FGO any good?

I don’t want to keep asking, but please remember to tag the original artists.
This one was even listed in the source link.

Also, somebody tell me more about this chick. Did I capture her reasonably well? What's she really like?

You did capture Jeanne Alter's chunni-ness and actually being an easily embarrassed dork quite well.

Anyway about Jeanne Alter: She is what is considered a psudo-servant since she has no actual basis on reality, she is a fake, basically. An artificial existence given form from a wish on the holy grail. Mad with grief and angered by both England for executing her and France for letting it happen, Giles De Rase used the holy grail to "resurrect" the saint of Orleans to seek righteous retribution on those who wronged her. However, the true Jeanne did not curse her captors or her home, and died without malice or anger in her heart, so her soul was pure. Since the grail could not resurrect her the way Giles wished for, it did what it does best and made a very shitty copy of her, but with her morals twisted to spite and hatred of all living beings.

Thus Jeanne Alter was born, a badly made, fake as hell, poor man's copy of the uncorruptible Saint of Orleans, a witch that can summon and command dragons, and a blight on the land of France. Originally she was summoned in the same class as Jeanne was confined to, being a Ruler like her true self, but that was only because Giles didn't know what else to summoner her as. But by the time the Events dealing with the spread of Da Vince's counterfeit works and the seven fake servants, she has transitioned into a proper class that allows for the full scope of her wrath and desire for recommence allowed. Which is why she's Summonable as an Avenger. She is a what-if, A Jeanne that hated humanity for the wrongs that were committed against her and from them the desire to enact vengeance. She freely admits to her status as a Fake, but also is allowed to exist because of her status as a Fake.

Jeanne Alter's personality is pretty funny, in retrospect, she puts on airs of being a damned soul, who curses her master and tries to keep their relationship distant and semi-professional. In actuality she's actually truer to Jeanne's original self then the Saint of France. Behind the pale of being an unrepentant demon, is the heart of an innocent young woman who died before she could even experience love (which is why her wish to the grail is to basically being a vn protagonist.) She is also one of the most tsundere of tsunderes, she is stand offish, cruel, spiteful, rude and prone to violence very easily. But also, at her very core desires praise, and attention. (her 3rd ascension has her almost gush over her new dress which is implied to have been given to her by Ritsuka, and her my room lines while wearing her Shinjuku outfit demands Ritsuka to stare and admire her, while eventually getting super embarrassed and red faced when they do.)

The artist's name already existed here, so didn't need a new tag to be added. Better to check before adding it.

And when you want to add a new artist tag for those that aren't on the site, instead of doing "momio_(artist)", do "artist:momio"

EDIT: The other post you made doesn't seem to have the artist's tag listed here. Try adding the artist of it there the way I explained above.

As someone who plays it... and at the risk of inciting opinions but wanting to serve as a warning for others...

Yes, it's a great game, with one major caveat: the payment model is basically gambling but worse. The game itself plays relatively simply. It has a nice story that is very good compared to other mobile games and okay compared to more serious story games. The characters look nice, all the characters have interesting backstories in my opinion, and the rarer characters usually have attack animations that are nice to watch. Compared to other mobile games it is not as demanding on you to grind heavily, but you can if you want to. The combat has the possibility for depth but you can usually get by with simple strategies. You don't need to use rare characters to win but they make it easier and faster. Of all the mobile games I've played, I would recommend it the most.

The bad: Getting rare characters. Characters are rated from 1 to 5 stars, with 5 being the rarest. You will easily get all characters from 1 to 3 stars. For 4 and 5 star characters, you need to draw them from a gacha, with a 3% chance for 4 star characters and a 1% chance for 5 star characters. The game rotates characters through "rate-up" periods where if you do hit that 1% or 3% chance for a 5 or 4 star character, then 70% of the time it will be the rate-up character instead of some other character of the same rarity. There are no pity breakers or other ways to increase your chance to get a rare character. This means if you want a specific 5 star character like the one in the picture, your chances on any one draw are 1% * 70% = 0.7%. That's really low.

The game gives free draws out gradually... if you are free to play and at least login every day, over the course of a year you will get about 500 draws or so and you can prorate that down to about 40 a month. If you want to pay real money then each roll costs about $1.70, so 100 rolls would be about $170. To put that into perspective, if you want just one specific 5 star character, saving up free resources for slightly more than half a year would give you about 300 rolls, and that would only give you about a 75% chance of getting them. If you were to buy that 300 rolls with money, it would cost about $510 and you would still have a 25% chance of getting nothing for that.

So... if anyone is considering playing, let me give you this advice. First, strongly consider either re-rolling your account for a 5 star character or buying a starter account from a re-roller that has 5 star characters you like. Now is a great time because the character in the picture is on rate-up and is really strong. Having a 5 star character at the start means you'll have someone nice to look at and feel invested in from the beginning. Do not /ever/ spend real money unless you are seriously, religiously committed to a limit you can maintain. The gacha system is basically created to function the same way a slot machine works. No amount of money you pay in will ever give you good odds, and the whole thing is engineered to make you feel like any money you spend is a sunk cost to force you to keep spending hundreds or thousands of dollars just to get one character. If you're willing to pay at all, then pay to buy an account that starts with some good characters and then you can be happy with them even if you don't get lucky later.

The game is actually balanced enough that you *can* beat it with 1-3 rarity servants, not to mention the Rarity 4 welfare (freebie) servants that are given out during events. But by and large, the gatcha while a bit of a blight is fairer then most others.
