Current Characters in Route: Shinn Asuka
Character
Name: Berserker (Lancelot of the Lake)
Series: Fate/Zero
Timeline: Post-Death
Canon Resource Links:Spoilers for Fate/Zero
Personality:
Lancelot, first and foremost is a knight. Therefore, there is a compulsion for him to adhere to the concept of honor and justice, in addition of being chivalrous and polite to others he meets. And it is of no surprise that he'll charge into situations headfirst if given enough incentives to do so (ie. damsels in distress and others of the sort), which could be problematic for those he is traveling with. Though, this does have its own merit if you're really needing a loyal guy, since a knight is an embodiment of loyalty, be it to their king or their friends.
Beneath the knightly exterior, however, lies a knight who had been through a lot in his life, and desired death for the greatest treason he had believed he had done: breaking the Knights of the Round Table, courting Guinevere and taking the lives of his kind. To Lancelot, his salvation is death by his king's hand, and yet, she never gave him that luxury, and forgave him for it. This was inexcusable to him, which is the impetus for him to enforce Mad Enhancement upon himself when summoned as a Berserker during the 4th Grail War.
As enforced above, while Lancelot is above things such as mild teasing and bullying, Lancelot cannot truly condone breaches in promises as well as disloyalty, which angers him a lot since trust is something that he could never get in the end, and thus, hopes that other knights after him knows its true value as opposed to just discarding it on a whim. While he will not show any emotions apart from concern usually, events had made him into a knight that will be enraged with considerable amount of offense made, be it to himself by insulting his queen or king, or to others that don't deserve it.
The extent of his will to save those he cares about are also worth mentioning, as he was completely willing to risk his honor and life in order to save his beloved, which caused his own downfall in the legends. Therefore it is not a stretch that he will do all it takes to save his friends from despair or pain, even if it meant sacrificing everything that was important to him. After all, time and time again, loyalty and selflessness marks a true knight from the others during his age, even if his acts were hated by his own kin, especially Gawain.
Strengths/Weaknesses:
+Loyalty: Should the person he is interacting with prove their worth to him, he will go to the ends of earth with him/her, and be a comrade for life.
+Politeness: He is exceedingly polite due to his upbringing, therefore he's easy to be around with.
+Swordmanship: He's one of the top knights in his era, being able to command such skills from his own weapons and wield any other thing effectively as a weapon. Not like that'll be much use here.
+/-Determination: He is definitely determined in doing something to the fullest, which would always help him when he's in trouble, or cause a problem should a retreat is more viable.
-Rage: There are times where Lancelot might fall into a berserk rage, which has a possibility of him harming his friend/loved ones
-Broken: Events had left him a broken existence, and while he hides it, it's obvious that to some, his words are merely empty, even though he will do what he promised to do.

First Person Sample:
[The feed opens to a very confused man looking at the gear with a silent plea of help:]
Ah, Johto, it appears that two of my Pokémon have... [A small silence as he pondered upon it.] mated.
[Without further ado, he stepped to the side to show a clearly amazing sight: A Zoroa cuddling with her mate, a Diglett while being surrounded by... eggs.
Well that explains his confusion pretty well.
He's going to step back into view to save you from having those strange mental image.]
Is it normal for two radically different creatures to be compatible in such a way?
[Truly, this world certainly keeps surprising him with all that happens in his current life with these critters.]
Third Person Sample:
It has been a month ever since he had been stuck in this very strange place upon his role's end in the Holy Grail War. While he has indeed grown used to an idle life with the absence of all semblance of knights, kingdoms and what not, the way these... Pokémon work still baffles him more than half of the time. Breeding is something he was... a bit familiar with considering the amount of calves he had seen in Joyous Gard during mating season, but the fact that a dark creature such as a Zorua could even copulate with a... Digglet remains to be one of the weirdest... mating couples he has ever seen in his life.
Though, all of those events could not compare with the fact that his king truly forgave and condones his action to the throne of Britain during that time. He had always believed that as a 'knight', a piece that is required for the kingdom to function with its king, his act of treason would've been unforgivable to all other and yet... Arturia forgave him, for she felt that both these 'pieces' deserved to love each other due to their circumstances. And yet still...
Lancelot of the Lake feels pain in his heart when he sees his strange couple being very close to each other, a searing pain that reminds him that the other side of him still exists. His restricted shadow, a beast unbound by honor and the values of a knight, a beast that wanted his own death as a way to truly atone for both their sins.
He realized that his right fist is clenched, and that both his Pokémon are looking at him with concern in their eyes, probably at the pained face he was making while having those thoughts to himself. Deciding that the time for self-pity is over for the time being, he rose and began folding back his tent in preparation to continue their arduous journey to the next town.
"...Come, we still have much to do."
