Saber ✦ Fate Stay/Night ✦ Re-app

Re-app. I'm changing her chosen Arcana to Strength over Chariot though, so please look over the advised changes:

Arcana: The Strength

Justification: While Saber hardly shows passion for anything, she excels at displaying it in battle and with her beliefs. She's firmly rooted in the values of what is right and wrong, causing her to trust in her own strengths, as well as the strengths of others. Self-control is often a strong point of her's - to the point of being a nuisance to many of her comrades. While she's normally not impulsive, there are times where she might lose this self-control, faltering when it comes to things that are cute or in the rare case - her emotions. Saber's generosity stems from her selflessness and eagerness to uphold the values of chivalry. Often at times, she'll place her own life in danger for a complete stranger, choosing to protect the weak with her own strength and experience. Despite the strong points of this Arcana being resolute in her mind, many of the faults that come with the reverse position fall into her hands as well. While defeat isn't much of an option for her, she suffers from a self-degrading one that lurks in the shadows of her mind, waiting to strike out at her. She often feels inadequate to be a knight, moreso when it comes to being a king, and doubly so when it comes being alive again.

For other samples, please view her tag in the community for first person samples and the tag in the logging community for third person samples.
