Personal Skills

Skill 01

Protection of Spirits: A

A natural ability developed by most Shamans or Witchdoctors of old. By communing and channeling with nature, the shaman learns to listen to the voices of the spirits surrounding them. Nana is capable of listening to the voices of the nature spirits and elementals as well as hear the voices of her ancestors that watch over her. They will tell her of special features of the land or where danger might be up ahead. It is by far from precise, rarely telling her the exact nature of the fortune or danger they are attempting to lead her toward, but never are they wrong. The perspective of the ethereal is as difficult to perceive as it is to deceive.

Skill 02	Presence Detection: C
	A skill learned through the use of a shaman's ability to commune with nature. The ability to detect nature spirits such as elementals as well as detect sources of natural mana. This skill works at detecting Servants up to a kilometer, reduced effect against skills like Presence Concealment requiring close to immediate proximity to detect.

Skill 03

Shamanism: A

A magecraft system similar to Witchcraft and Formalcraft. It relies more on natural mana over the caster's own mana. This magecraft focuses on manipulation of nature, divination through communion with spirits, healing through potions and other physical mediums, and the affliction and treatment of curses and poisons. She's also able to use this to change her physical abilities and double them in strength. It has very few offensive applications, but fits well as a support type of magecraft.

Class Skills

Skill 01	item Creation: D
	Creation of items that contain great mystery albeit not on the level of Noble Phantasm. This skill allows the Servant to construct items that have the effects of magic. These items disappear with the Servant unless special measures are taken by a magus.

Skill 02	Territory Creation: D
	Alteration of their surroundings to become more favorable becomes possible. This skill grants the Servant the ability to construct a 'Workshop' or a 'Temple' to boost their abilities. Much of the alterations are not visible and are akin to creating Bounded Field, but can be if the Servant desires it to be.

Noble Phantasm

Optional NP Image here	JuJu Bag
	Rank: B
	Type: Anti-Thaumatergy
The Juju Bag is pouch of components used by Nana Miriam for her magic. It's primary use in her legend is against the great hippopotamus that is devouring her people's crops. Through the use of charms, incantations, and a liberal application of juju dust, Nana Miriam was capable of countering every magic the hippo could muster. This Noble Phantasm is applying by Nana Miriam throwing the dust into the air or applying to the target. It transforms into the absolute counter to any thaumaturgy it comes in contact with effectively canceling it entirely. The primary weakness of this Noble Phantasm is that it does have to come in contact with the thaumaturgy to stop it. Anything on the level of magecraft is at risk when it comes in contact with this dust. Due to the nature of the hippopotamus that Nana Miriam faced and of shamanism as a whole, it is even effective against weaker miracles produced before the Age of the Gods. Its power can be overwhelmed if the magic it faces exceeds the rank of this Noble Phantasm, however it will be weakened significantly having its rank lowered by subtracting it by B-rank.

Fara Maka

Nana's Father (Fara Maka) taught her magic. Nana had a natural talent for magic and quickly became good at it. She'd practice in secret to hide the fact that she had actually surpassed her father very quickly in his teachings. He never had a clue about her rapid progress and always assumed that she wasn't nearly as good as him, though he always knew she could be.

Another thing to note about her father that all the stories seem to mention is that Fara Maka was VERY ugly. And though he was a powerful warrior and people looked up to him, his looks were not as fortunate. Luckily for Nana, her father's looks never rubbed off on her and she ended up being quite a beautiful young woman.

Fara Maka loved his daughter, and cared for her deeply. So he sometimes came off as overprotective, well he often did. So he didn't trust his daughter to hold her own, not until she proved him wrong that is!

A Small Village, A Big Problem

Nana's village grew plenty of rice, but every year right before the harvest a big hippo would come around and eat all their food. The people didn't know what to do, until one day Nana's father went out to kill it.

In the end, they learned the Hippo seemed to be immune to spears and would catch them into pots around it's neck, and they would melt in the fire in them. Then the hippo would shapeshift and get away before anyone could catch him. No one knew what to do, so they went to the neighboring village for help, but even when another warrior came with one-hundred twenty hunting dogs, it was no use.

Nana the hippo tosser!

So when everything failed, her father came home and was all down in the dumps about the hippo. Nana was fed up with it, and despite her father's protests decided to go ahead and face the hippo head-on all by herself. Just because she was a girl she wouldn't let that stop her!

So, she went and confronted the hippo and he laughed at her, not believing that she could do it. So, he attacked her with a fire spell, but she counteracted it with some dust to get rid of the flames. Then, he made a wall of fire, and Nana pulled out a hammer from her bag, and broke the wall down with it.

Nervous, the Hippo shapeshifted into a river and tried to escape, but Nana was ahead of him and threw lotion at him and dried up his form so he had to be a hippo again. So, the hippo went for the low blow, and ran to attack her dad. But NO WAY was she letting her dad take her glory. So, she ran in front of the hippo, grabbed him by the leg and threw him straight into space.

No More Hippos!

Nana wanted to take extra precautions, so Nana went ahead and threw an egg into the river that killed every single hippo in the river to make sure that they're all dead. Nana felt as though she had done a job well done, and was quite pleased with herself.

Until later she found out, that there was still one hippo left, and it happened to be pregnant. Nana was upset her egg didn't work and was ready to use another one, until her father stopped her saying that they hadn't done anything wrong. Nana eventually agreed not to kill them, and so eventually the hippos once again re-populated the earth.
