Note: I made this Series because 1. Note enough SI-OCs get respect. 2. Nobody has tried doing this and I want to try until I die. 3. Fate/Series is life and I was inspired by others.
I groaned, blinking dazzily from the bright light overhead. As I looked around from where I layed on the flower-covered ground, covered in millions- well actually more like an infinite- ammount of white petaled flowers. My eyes widened as I shot up and scrambled to stand up from where I just layed.
Last I remember, I was asleep in a bed- my bed to be exact- and not a place of infinite blue skies and glowing white flowers and... I think there was a tree? I turned around to take a look at the area around me before being met with the sight of a dark brown scaled beast, its claws and horns as black as coal. In its claws was a glowing cup- no not a cup... but the cup- [The Holy Grail].
I knew who the dragon was, as I had watched clips and AMVs about Fate/Apocrypha in my spare time, but never bothered watching the whole movie. The dragon was Fafnir, the Dark Dragon who hoarded treasure and was slain by Siegfried. However to say he was "slain" is also false, as Sieg, the humonculous, became Fafnir himself to bring [The Holy Grail] to the realm of Phantasmal Beasts, the Farside, etc etc. As far as I knew, Fafnir- Sieg- was sitting here and waiting for [Ruler] or should I say, Jeanne D' Arc.
My body moved against my will, bringing me closer to the sleeping beast, who seemed to awaken just as I approached fully. His glowing teal eyes staring at mine, a stare that almost seemed like they new too much. I stared back, mostly with awe as he began to speak.
["The Grail chose you? I see... Welcome, Derpy. Many questions cannot be answered by me, however I will tell you of why you are here. You have been chosen to become a [Grail Keeper] by the Grail. The job as a [Grail Keeper] is to collect any and all Grails- from Lesser Grails to Greater Grails, to the Abnormal and Normal Grails,"]
I stood there confused and slightly disturbed, but then again if this is strange and crazy, I actually like it. Mostly because I'm also crazy and strange. But thats beside the point!
["However, I will inform you of one thing. As you collect Abnormal Grails, the taint from those grails will eat away at your Sanity, tainting your Core and Origin, however I am not sure in what way. In order to collect [The Holy Grail] this Grail will be granting your Origin, [Beast], the power of a Phantasmal Beast. This Soul will be chosen by the Grail, and you will not be able to form any other Phantasmal Beast. Of course, Dragons are not included with Phantasmal Beasts. Use the Soul to turn into it, and use the abilities to your wishes,"]
Sieg paused, clicking his talons against the grail silently and gently, the grail hummed in his claws, glowing a bit brighter before dulling. He then continues.
["Of course, since you are a human, now becoming a Servant but havent died yet, your abilities and stats will be locked to more humane levels. Of course, as you get more experience and your Master, who will be assigned to you to give you prana as the Grail will not supply you with such things, will be able to unlock your Stats and Abilities. The Grail is doing this so that you can learn from your mistakes, and be able to manage Relationships with Heroic Spirits easier."]
As he finished, I fully connected the pieces, however I wasn't quite sure just yet. Time to ask some questions that probably could be answered, no?
"Who exactly is going to be my Master then? I don't believe a regular human, a magus or not, would be able to handle my output with Prana as I release more of my true potential. Where would we start when the Grail finishes with my transformation? Lastly, How does my Master unlock my potential?" I asked calmly
Sieg put a talon to his chin, thinking. His teal eyes closed as the Grail flashed again, almost blindingly much, which caused my own to close as it was really bloody bright, then as it dulled both of us looked at each other.
["The Grail has chosen Hakuno Kishinami as your Master. Since she is a Digital Human, however, your existance is tied to her in a form of Bonds. As long as she is with you, her body won't be forced by Gaia to dissolve and go back to the Moon Grail. You gain experience by either fighting enemies or eating EXP Cards your Master can summon from the grail. Hakuno will be able to unlock your potential through your bond, and the Grail from the Moon will be supporting Hakuno with Prana since Hakuno is still bound to it."]
Sieg answered, then clicked his talons on the grail once more, his tail flicking. The grail flickered with light.
["It is time. When you awake, your Master will be there with you. You will both be in England during the time of Artorias, or Sabers, rule. Chaldeas will be alerted by your presence, and will most likely try to fight you.

My True name glitched and cackled in the air as he spoke, not truely there nor ever existing. It was a dead name now, and nobody from the future would even know it. With a flash of light that nearly blinded me, I was gone.
My body was pulled apart, burned, shredded, then put back together. My core- my origin- I could hear it roar like a Tiger, hot anger pulled at me like a leash, and suddenly it calmed. I opened my eyes to the green landscape, a town in the distance, a dirt road guarded by small rock walls, and next to me, standing there, was my Master.
My Master wore a white dress, her pale skin shining from the seemingly dim glow it gave off from the sunlight. Along the Collar was several red stripes, and on her back was a bright red ribbon that waved as the wind passed by, tossing her chocolate hair into the air and flowed like a river. Her bright but calm caramel eyes stared into my own.
I looked down at myself, tempted to blush but unable to. My chest was hugged by a powder-bluish like purple shirt, the sleeves coming off at mid-arm and was loose. The cut of the shirt was angled so it only covered my breasts, but from in between a thick strip of cloth connected from the top of the upside down v to make some sort of loincloth. However I do know my groin was indeed covered- thank god. Around the waist was a belt that Connected in the middle to connect the loincloth to whatever was under that. From the sides of my waist was a flowy type of cloth that had a button that kept another piece of cloth around my legs, and I felt strangely comfortable without having anything on my feet.
My skin was pale, however I could faintly see the faint glowing blue that most Phantasmal Beasts have, I could barely see my hair but from the bangs and the bits of hair that curled down to my chin, it was a powderish white-blue, much like Merlins which I humored to myself. Of course I couldnt tell my eye color, however for some reason I couldnt see out of my Right Eye. My thin pale fingers reached for my ears, which were pointed much like an elf. As if it wasn't obvious I wasn't human. Hanging from my neck was a minute [Holy Grail] which was connected from golden wire to my neck with many loops but hunt comfortably on my chest.
My Master coughs into her fist, causing me to look up. I tilted my head, then smiled a bit. She reaches out, the back of her hand facing me. On it, what looks like a celtic lions head with two bat wings at each side of the head is shown to me, bleeding a lovely blood red before dulling. I reach out with the opposite hand, my left, and grip it.
"Servant [Grailkeeper], at your service, my Master." I introduced politely, a small smile on my face.
My Master stares before smiling softly and gently, the smile neither big nor small. To be quite honest, my Master was one of my favorite characters in the Fate series, but I prefered the female verson. Unlike the male, the female form showed more grace and seemed more suited with Caster and Saber than the Male did for them, but that was mostly because in my life I was homosexual (and Asexual).
"I am Hakuno Kishinami, [Grailkeeper]. You may call my Hakuno if you wish instead of Master. It doesn't seem right to have you calling me Master. What may I call you instead of [Grailkeeper]?" she asked, tilting her head.
I hummed, then answered as my Origin hummed.
"Call me [Manticore] after all, that is what my [Beast] Origin is calling to me." I answered, and a fanged grin grew on my face.

Master: Hakuno Kishinami (Fate/Extra/CCC/Extella)
Alignment: True Neutral / Chaotic Neutral
Parameters (*)
Strength: E (*EX)
Endurance: E (*B)
Agility: D (*A+)
Magic: E (*B+)
Luck: D (*B++)
(* When fully unlocked, full potential is unleashed.)
Skills
Independent Action D+ (*C++): Can stay manifested without Masters prana for a day. Full Potential allows for manifestation to last for a week.
Mad Enhancement E (**EX): Can choose when to go sane or insane, but doesnt raise Parameters. This skill is connected to an ability.
Magic Resistance E (*D): Can resist Single Action spells. This was given despite the realm the Servant came from having no Magic but due to being summon by a Magical Object, it was given.
Mystic Eyes (Future Sight [False]) E (*D): A gift given from the Holy Grail to allow the Servant to see a day at random in their sleep. When they awake they are unable to remember what they have seen, and when they "See" what happens, to them it feels like deja vu. When potential is unlocked, the user can remember little about what will happen, but not when it happens or what happens afterwards.
[Beast] Origin (EX): The Origin of Beasts that was granted by the grail to grant the Servant the ability to form into a Phantasmal Beast. Of course, this "Beast" isn't the real version, and will look different than those in legends. The origin chooses at random by the Grail, and gives this Servant the "Manticore" Origin.
Abilities
Infinite [Holy Grail] Storage (EX) Anti-Reality : The only EX Rank Ability that doesnt need to be unlocked. This allows the Servant to absorb Grails and send them to the Phantasmal Realm, or the "Other Side". Greater Grails allow for temp stat increase while Abnormal Grails increase the Mad Enhancement Skill that can be taken away through certain processes.
[Beast] Core/Origin E (EX) Anti-Self (Unit): The user is able to talk with Beasts of any nature, Phantasmal, Non-Phantasmal, and Dragons. However, at E rank, the user can only contact with Non-Phantasmal Beasts and Phantasmal Beasts that are able to listen and speak. Causes headaches and nose bleeds if talking with Phantasmals.
Noble Phantasms
Thousand Noble Phantasms E (EX*) Anti-?
The ability to call apon thousands of Weapons from different Heroic Spirits, but requires knowledge of the Legend, a Relationship with the hero itself, and knowledge on how the weapon works. Can be summoned singularly or in "Gates" like EMIYA's or Gilgamesh's. E rank allows for one High Rank Noble, or mutliple Low Rank Nobles.'
The Human Who Became Beast (EX) Anti-Reality Anti-Self (Unit)
By being granted with the Origin of the Manticore, the Servant has an more diverse temperment than normal spirits. Anger, Happiness, Sadness, and other Emotions are higher than normal, and due to the Servants previous life, these feelings are seemingly enhanced. Bursts of Anger, Stress, and Depression can happen in violent ways.
Extra
* Any Rankings in the () marks are considered Locked until further notice. This is so the Servant can retain a more "Human Like" appearence and so that the Servant doesn't appear too Over Powered. Potential upgrades through letters (For example increasing Strenght by one letter [D] ad so forth.)
* This Extra Class is exclusive to those who know of the "Nasuverse" and have unusual Origins, such as [Beast] , [Dragon] , [Canine] , or [Blade]
* This Extra Class, since summoned by the Holy Grail and Created by the Grail, cannot be summoned through normal means. Requires either a Catalysc, Knowledge of whom the Servant is, or another Servant who has a relationship with the Hero. Can also be summoned by the Grail Itself, and can also be classified under [Ruler] [Avenger] [Beast] or [Berserker]
