Hassan of Serenity ; Fate/Grand Order ☆ PLUM

[camelots-rose]

So I'm playing the Nero event or to be more precise the Hassan battle, and I really wish we got to see the other personas more often.

Don't get me wrong, I like Asako, but I would love to see Gozour, Macour, or Zayd outside of events or even use one of them as a spiritron since we do have character models as well as the portraits for those three that could be repurpose as one.

Hassan of the Comically Large Spoon.

[tamamita]

back when i was playing fgo, I was deeply fascinated by king hassan, is he an important figure in islam

He's he founder of the Tariqat al-Hashashin (Order of the Assassins) as well as being the founder of the Shi'a Nizari Ismailiyya sub-branch. Initially a Twelver Shi'a, Hassan i Sabbah converted to the Sevener branch and believed that the next in line in the Ismailyya Imamate after the Fatimid Caliph/Imam al-Mustansir was his son al-Nizar, while the vizier of the Caliph claimed that he had appointed al-Nizar's younger brother al-Musta'ali as the successor, thus leading to a schism between those who belong to the Nizari sub-branch and the Musta'ali sub-branch. Nizar began his revolt to reclaim the caliphate, but ultimately lost. Hassan i Sabbah would go on to become the dai (missionary) of the Nizaris and would go on to form the Nizari branch and the order of Assassins, while the Fatimid caliph remained under the rule of al-Musta'ali until the Ayyubids under the control of Salah-ad-Deen defeated them.

Hassan i Sabbah is an important person for he laid the foundation of one of the oldest living sub-branches of Shi'a Islam with a continuous chain of Imams and a current living Imam. Both the Nizari and Musta'ali Ismailiyyas exist today.

Ok- ok- F/GO x AC. Imagine Desmond Master of Chaldea and the other assassins are also servants. (All of them being assassin class ofc) it woulc be funny to see how some of the already existing servants would react to the other assassins. Jacob having mixed feelings on Jack the ripper and Altair and Jacques De Molay, Edward and the other pirate servants, etc. And Desmond thrown into being the Savior of humanity again, man deja vu.

Okay, so first things first… Altaïr would have never met Jacques de Molay because Jacques de Molay would be quite young when Altaïr died. (Edward, though, would have some very awkward questions for Anne and Mary and it would probably be easy for Jacob to ignore Jack the Ripper because of how different they are from the Jack he knew)

Second of all, my dear nonny, I barely played FGO but I did play the OG VN so…

The fact that you picked Desmond as a master and the other Assassins as servants only reminded me that part of the plot of the og visual novel is that servants take mana from their master by having sex XD

(technically, any kind of fluid would do but the VN used sex hahahaha)

Anyway, I think there’s something ‘fishy’ we can do about Desmond and his ‘exclusive’ servants because of one mystery:

is “The Old Man of the Mountain” (First Hassan) even human to begin with?

We could play with his connection to Desmond in some way, marking Desmond as a Master who cannot summon any new servants. He only has the new Assassin class servants who seemed… well… there’s definitely some question to the legitimacy of their creation.

Hell, one of them could even talk about how Desmond’s direct connection to the First Hassan is too ‘direct’ to be normal.

If the First Hassan is something more than human then Desmond could be a being created by him, hereby making him more or less the First Hassan’s son.

His servants would be the ‘protection’ his father gave him.

Desmond calls it all bullshit because (1) he has never met the First Hassan and (2) he highly doubts what may or may not be Hassan-i Sabbah is related to him.

But, of course, some servants would find this fascinating and want to learn more about Desmond and his servants.

And who more would be interested than Leonardo Da Vinci.

Who willingly took the image of Mona Lisa after being summoned XD

Enter Ezio Auditore’s “I am now questioning my sexuality in the middle of what amounts to an Afterlife Battle Encore” XD

Gramps when he finally meets Gawain:

Inspired by this modern classic

[the-anime-void]

The Evening Bell tolls...

Gramps is one of my all time favorite servants, so I'm very excited to talk about a theory of his true origins and name. Hopefully this will be the first in many Servant Analysis and Lore videos.

[melusineisthebestest]

Y'know I've seen some people say that First Hassan's death giving abilities don't count as his Zanbaniya because it's a blessing God gave him rather than a miracle he achieved. These people are gravely mistaken.

First Hassan has no blessings or gifts. Even "Protection of the Faith" isn't actually divine protection. It's the manifestation of belief and willpower made into an ability.

The First Hassan trained in the Valley of the Shadow of Death, stripped himself of his flesh and dug out his own organs until he became that very shadow of his own accord. He was a human man, no gifts nor blessings, only faith and determination. He follows the Fate hallmark of a normal human achieving the impossible by their own hand. He became Death on his own.

Sure it's not trchnically called his Zanbaniya, but what else would it be?

And yes, this 100% means Fake Assassin from Fate/Strange Fake should be able to do what Gramps does since she mastered all the Zanbaniyas of the 18 previous Hassan-i-Sabah. You cannot change my mind on this.

Gawain: [swings at Hassan and misses]

Hassan: strike one

Gawain: That’s not how it works!

Gawain: [swings again]

Hassan: strike two

Hassan: once more and thine self is out

Gawain, under his breath: fuck
