A girl from another world and another time. They fell from a rift in time and space, only to appear on a beach in a world alien to her.

Parameters:
Strength: E
Agility: B
Constitution: C
Mana: C
Luck: A+
NP: EX
Class Skills:
True Name Discernment: B+
Due to being summoned as Ruler, during a direct encounter, a Servant's true name and entire status information will be automatically revealed. In regards to Servants with concealment abilities, a Luck Check is required to bypass those abilities. However, due to Akari's history of observing and studying Pokémon, even those only known to myth, on any subsequent encounters it will be a certain success.
God's Resolution: NA
The privilege of the Ruler presiding over the Holy Grail War: the right to use Command Spells against Servants. Ruler are generally given two command seals for usage against enemy servants. However, in Akari's case, these command seals are consumed and integrated into one of her Noble Phantasms. Because of this, this skill is functionally sealed.
Magic Resistance: EX
Skill representing protection against magical effects. Akari herself has no specific protections other than charms she possesses that prevent her from being restrained or disabled, as well as boosting her rate of recovery. However, she is able to avoid even the strongest magical effects, meaning that so long as she takes the true effort of dodging, no magical effect can hit her. However, if she is unable to perform evasive action then she functionally has no resistance to powerful magic any more than a normal servant. Because of this, this skill lacks effectiveness against continually applied magical effects with an area of effect, or ones subtle enough that she might not notice them.
Personal Skills:
Charisma: D++
Ability to lead others. Akari possesses a unique deposition that by her earnest nature and efforts, is able to draw people together. In life, this was enough to help repair the divide between the two native tribes of Hisui. However, her skill in leading people is lacking, and as such is nothing more than an inspiring figure for others to follow. She does however possess prodigal skill at the direction and leading of Pokémon, meaning that Pokémon being directed by her will exhibit an exceptional increase in abilities.
Affection of the Origin God: EX
She was chosen and beloved by the Origin God Arceus, one who created all things. Ruler is also one who has passed their trial and has been granted the aid of a fragment of them for the duration of their life. A powerful blessing that protects Ruler against all mental influences absolutely, as well as granting them additional saving throws on all actions.
Summoning - Pokemon: EX
During her journey as a member of the Galaxy Expedition force, Akari was known for her prodigious skill at capturing and training the terrifyingly powerful creatures know as Pokémon using a new invention known as a Pokéball. Akari herself has minimal abilities, not capable of fighting by herself. Instead however, she is capable of calling upon the many Pokémon who she has captured and bonded with in life. This includes even the most powerful Pokémon of legends of the Hisui region. The Pokémon of the Lake, the Lord of Time, the Lord of Space and countless others. However, the greater the Pokémon being called, the greater the drain of magical energy. In the case of summoning those mighty legends, her ability to call others will be severely limited.
Legend Plate, Firmament of Origin
Rank: EX
Type: Anti-UnitThe origin of all, of time that moves forward and space that expands outwards. The legendary Creator of all things, Arceus.
It imparted a challenge upon its chosen. And its chosen answered it.
With Willpower, Knowledge and Emotion they quelled and brought back balance between time and space. They traveled the Lands of Hisui and bonded with all Pokémon within it, even ancient and forgotten legends lost to time.
And when that was done, it presented the final challenge, itself.
And its chosen succeeded.
Pleased, it imparted a fragment of itself and a Plate etched with the truth of the Origin upon it. With this Noble Phantasm, the fragment of itself becomes summoned, locking away the usage of all other Pokémon, while also making it so the creator's power becomes nearly absolute against its foes. The Creator's Judgement will become absolute, rending the foe with power so great there is no hope of survival, the only possible recourse being evasion. Any attempts at defense, no matter how great, will fail. The ability to continue fighting or endure has no use. To be stricken by the true Judgment of the Creator is to brought to an end more absolute then all else.
However, the Creator is not unsurmountable. Just as Ruler passed its challenge in life, so too can the fragment summoned be defeated. And if done, then Ruler will be left without any means to protect themselves for some time.
Even in life, Akari was never guaranteed victory. It was only through her efforts and the aid of friends was she able to succeed. So of course, no matter its power, it would only be fitting for her Noble Phantasm to reflect the truth of her nature and legend.
Of a person simply trying to do her best even against impossible odds.
The Red Chain, That Which Holds Time and Space
Rank: EX
Type: Anti-Unit, Anti-WorldWhat defines the world?
The vastness of space that expands outward and encompasses all?
The flow of time that ever moves forward and brings about change?
It is neither.
Rather, it is the mind itself. The world is formed and held in place only by our minds.
The feelings that drive us forward, the impact the world has upon us. The bitterness, the worry, the anger, the hatred, the love, the joy, the belonging. The impact of the world upon us made manifest by the Emotions we feel deepest within, attributing it meaning.
The shape of the world, how we perceive it. The nature of the earth, sky and sea. The actions of beasts. The falling of the rocks. The flowing of the river. The shining of the stars. Though understanding we collect Knowledge, and the shape of the world becomes clear.
The desire to move forward. The act of living. The despair of death. The joy of experience. The wonder of learning. To live is to move forward. To be a person is to endeavor to live. It is though the valor, the Willpower of the self, within us that we move forward though time, and explore the vastness of space.
The mind itself defines the world. The mind itself defines the constraints and limits of the world. It gives it shape, stability, and balance. It orders those powers far beyond mankind, those powers that fuel and direct existence itself. It is the power of those living within the world to define the world.
The Red Chain is that. A divine artifact forged by the power of the three Pokémon of the Lakes upon passing their trials in a time of true need.
It is a noble phantasm with the power to 'bind the world', locking it in place and stabilizing it. And in life, its power was used to quell the Lords of Time and Space from their fury.
A long red chain, this Noble Phantasm has numerous functions. It can be used of the world itself, stabilizing it for a time, preventing the establishment of things such as Reality Marbles, Bounded Fields, or other such alterations. It can also be used on such things in order to stabilize them and lock them in place.
However, its main function is a restraining tool. It is the ultimate binding tool and restrains anything, locking time and space itself. It quells rampaging power and stabilizes it, calming those trapped by it, binding them. If used against beings with too great a power, it would only be usable once, and against things such things as the Lords of Time and Space, it will only limit their wild power to the realms of human understanding.
It is because of this however, that its only usage in life was once against the Lord of Time and Space, once as a chain and the other forged into a ball to restrain the rampaging lord, that it possesses a fatal flaw as a Noble Phantasms. Namely that it can only be used once on a singular target before shattering. But due to being summoned as Ruler, the power of the command seals has been funneled into this Noble Phantasm. The power to command and bind servants has been melded into the Noble Phantasms mean to bind the world itself, and because of this it can be used additional times up to the amount of command seals Ruler possesses. Theoretically, the fragments of the broken chain could be used to create something of great power, but as a servant, the means of doing so are beyond Ruler, as it was something dependent on the help of many to accomplish. But perhaps a skilled magus could find a use for the fragments of this powerful artifact.
Personality: They are in many ways a normal human being. No stranger to terror, bitterness, or even anger. But despite that she always tries her best to live, almost moving forward and outwards. She enjoys spending time with her friends, she is afraid of many things, and she puts her all what she does. When she is pushed, she will continue on with what she thinks is right, and even if left without option, she will continue to search for a path. However, she could not have accomplished what she had without the aid of her friends, and because of that she is firmly aware of her own weakness and of how important the support of others is.
If summoned within the Grand Order, it would be no doubt that she would get along swimmingly with the Master. They are two peas in a pod after all, people with normal lives thrown into situations they couldn't even imagine before.
Likes: Potato mochi, Pokémon, Nature, modern appliances and convinces.
Dislikes: Getting shocked, swimming, people unwilling to listen.
Wish for the Grail: Doesn't have any wish for the grail or desire for it, which is the reason its difficult for them to be summoned not as a Ruler class Servant. They would otherwise not answer the call for summoning during a Holy Grail War.
