Hello there! I wanted to create a mod that recreates abilities and appearance of Archer from Fate Stay Night. Don't worry if you don't know what it is, because the class is fun anyway. The mod includes balanced (at least 1 full party playthrough) martial class, custom armor and weapons and even custom vocal components when you do class actions. I also added a default half-elf's head to the human race and a skin tone matching Archer's. Pairs well with my Saber mod!
I highly recommend to use custom voice lines that need to be placed manually in:
In game you have to choose Voice 7 (The mod is still fully playable without them, but it really enhances the atmosphere).
If you want to play or check it out in some midgame/endgame playthrough, just check the traveler's chest at camp for equipment.
Last Update: New background - Counter Guardian + List of Inspirations
