TopicFate/Mythic Fragment II: A Grail War RPG/CYOA thingy

Welcome back to Fate/Mythic Fragment! You may remember the original from somewhere around a year ago, and this will be fairly similar. It's basically a CYOA, with some RPG elements that stay mostly behind the scenes. (Mythic is the system I'm using) B8 will run a single character by voting, like a regular CYOA. The setup is procedurally generated, and NPCs will be making their own decisions and doing stuff under roughly the same rules that apply to B8's character.

The core concept is based on the Fate franchise, but I think it should be at least remotely followable even if you're not familiar. In most Grail Wars (maybe this one, maybe not!) you have teams of Servants (powerful figures from history, mythology, or in our case also other fictional works; sorted into various appropriate Classes) and Masters (mages with less raw power that can contract with the Servants and order them with Command Seals) duking it out in a battle royale setting. Most participants are pretty cagey about their identities, and Servants especially will prefer to go by their Class title rather than their True Name- half the fun I think is trying to figure out who you're fighting, and how you can exploit somebody once you know who they are. Some Masters might be original characters, but most people you encounter will be from something. There could be spoilers involved for any media invoked, but I will try to avoid them.

Changes from last time: I'll try to be a bit more clear when writing scenes, even when you're not there. I'm planning to formally announce deaths and identities, but that's up for debate as I'd kinda rather leave more room for suspense. I also added some Command Spell mechanics that should help avoid some of the sudden anti-climactic kills on Servants.

I'm putting the finishing touches on my setup, and while I'm doing that let's work on B8's character! It has been previously determined that you are a Master, and you already picked your Catalyst so I know who your Servant is as well. Aiming to start tomorrow evening, but we'll see how votes go and how fast I can finish this setup and stuff like that.

1)What is your gender?
a) Male
b) Female
c) Other

2) How prepared were you for this Grail War?
a) I have prior experience.
b) I am an accomplished and renowned mage.
c) I'm in a bit over my head.
d) I didn't even know magecraft was a thing.
e) I don't even know who I am.

3) Law or Chaos?
a) Lawful
b) Neutral
c) Chaotic

4) Good or Evil?
a) Good
b) Neutral
c) Evil

These questions are not straight votes, I'm just looking for ideas and will hopefully be able to pick ones that I like from your submissions:

5) I suck at naming folks, please give me some good first names for OCs. (which will include B8's person)
6) And last names too.

7) Most mages have a specialty or unique talent of some sort. What's yours?

8) Mages also have an Origin- a concept or word or phrase that shapes their actions and character. What's yours?

9) Any other questions, comments, suggestions, feedback, gripes, or anything else?
