- Stubborn
- I mean determined, Ilya has been on countless quests, and obviously wouldn't have made it if she wasn't determined. Of course being determined makes you stubborn in the grand scheme of things, so Ilya often has a hard time accepting new things or anything that strays from her norm. She will not hesitate to change anything that upsets her if the chance is given. Her stubborn streak can lead her to extremes, such as tantrums and random episodes of violence. If someone didn't meet her ideals she would easily step in and steer them to more ideal behavior. She does not view this as meddling but simply handling things better.
- Protective
- At first Ilya wasn't protective at all, but because she was healed so she could protect mother Russia she'll protect anything that she can gain from right away. She isn't power hungry though, as she believes she already has enough power to do anything. Because of this she won't protect deceitful people, but won't hesitate to protect someone "Good". When dealing with someone she cares about being in danger she will way the risks and gain of protecting or helping them. Despite emotional ties.
- Superstitious
- Ilya became very spiritual after retiring from fighting, she was consedered a saint. She was a bit paranoid though, and took the religion a bit to seriously and believes in many of the superstitions. She often avoids taboo subjects, and performs Slavic customs when necessary. Although she never tells anyone she does them.
- Spiteful
- Despite all her values and ideals she still is spiteful. Mostly because her pride and ego, anyone who scorns her is instantly put on Ilya's enemies list. When interacting with these people she will show her passive-aggressive side. This was very present when she refused to hep Vladimir after he locked her away for three years.

MY LEGEND: //[/color] My legend
MY HISTORY: //[/color]
As a young child Ilya was crippled, and could not walk at all, this was thought be a curse from her Grand Father. Whatever the case was Ilya was stuck like this, laying on a Russian oven while her parents worked in the fields. One early summer day while Ilya's parents were outside clearing tree stumps, three strange visitors entered the families house. They were all perky, and sat down at the table.
"Good day, Ilya Muromets, good day, famous knight. You are the protector of the Russian land and invincible victor over enemies."
"But I am nothing but a cripple." She replied.
"Nonsense, all you need to do is stand."
The travelers then begin to chant for her to stand up, and soon she did. She felt as powerful as ever, and brought the travelers water and the best food from the cellar. One of the travelers asked her to drink the water as well, but as soon as she did she felt her newly found strength decrease by half. After a few more encouraging words about her protecting Russia and all that she rushed outside.
Outside her parents worked in the fields clearing tree trunks. They were slow, but soon the ground shook and Ilya came ripping out the trees quickly and effortlessly.
"Who healed you?" Her parents asked with shock.
"Dear parents, some travelers came by and gave me strength beyond belief."
And with Ilya started her journey, she raised a foal who would soon be her horse when she was a knight, and had a sword, a bow, and a purple shield made for her. Soon Ilya was on her way to Kiev to become a knight. She quickly stopped at Chernigov on her journey. Where she saw the town surrounded by fierce knights. The town was obviously not in a good condition. Charging in Ilya took out all the knights with mighty slashes saving the town. They offered her a position as knight but she declined, she had to get to Kiev.
Soon she approached a forest she would have to get through. Though the forest was desolate, not even animal dared venture in. She went through the forest cautiously, as the villagers had warned her of the robber that lived in these woods and how he could kill with his deadly whistle of doom. The robber knew she entered, and started whistling before very long. The whistle blew the leaves off the trees, cracked the ground, and trashed the forest. Ilya hit the bandit with an arrow from her bow before he could tell she was okay. She tied the bandit onto her horse and rode off.
Soon she finally reach Kiev! She went right to Vladimir's castle upon arrival, interrupting a meal with him and his knights. Vladimir asked Ilya where she had come from, to which she replied.
"I am the daughter of a peasant, I come from Murom."
At this the entire group laughed.
"You could have made it past Solovey the bandit."
To prove to them she had she lead them outside to show them Solovey tied to her horse. Vladimir encouraged Solovey to whistle, but solovey did not. Ilya told them she would get him to whistle, and covered Vladimir's ears with her cape so he would not die. So Solovey whistled as loud as he could, destroying the castle and killing the knights. Ilya then cut off his head to get him to stop. After apologizing for destroying a good chunk of expensive property Ilya became the head of knights for Vladimir.
She served for many years, and protected Rus' anyway she could. Although that one time, when Vladimir didn't invite her to that one party and she destroyed the church steeples. She says that he should have invited her, after all she dedicated her life to protecting the castle. She deserved a fancy dinner or something!
Some time later Vladimir had her locked away after being convinced by his other knights she was a threat. She was to be locked away for three years with no food, and was expected to rot. Soon though when the kingdom was under attack and Vladimir needed someone to save the day, he had no idea what to do. So his daughter told him to go and call upon Ilya, who was still alive despite being locked away for three years. Although she did not want to help Vladimir, she would defend the kingdom for the princess who fed her while she was locked away.
So, Ilya charged into battle! She took out a great number of the enemies, but fell into a pit and was trapped. Kalin Tsar of the Golden Horde asked her to join him, he would treat her better then Vladimir did, and give her more power. But Ilya declined, as she did she felt the other half of her strength that she lost so long ago return. She easily broke out of the trap, and defeated the rest of the Golden Horde. After wards she retired and lived in the castle, where she became in touch with her spiritual side.
MY GOALS: //[/color] I'll show everyone how powerful I am, and then retire....
NOBLE PHANTASM: //[/color]
The Sword of the Saint- The Weapon that fought the Golden Horde
Rank: A
Type: Anti-Unit
Range: None- As far as Ilya can slash.
Max Targets: 1 at a time, I suppose.
When Vladimir sent Ilya Muromets out to fight the Golden Horde after imprisoning her to starve, an action he later regretted, the knight at the request of Vladimir's daughter who provided her food while she was inprisoned, went off to fight the Golden Horde alone. She was captured, where Kalin Tsar offered her a position in the army, an enticing offer, but one she refused. She ended up freeing herself, and fought once more. She then felt stronger then she ever had before and killed Kalin Tsar while defeating many of the other forces. The Noble Phantasm acts as a second sword for Ilya, as a blade capable of slicing into diamond, given the right amount of strength, as well as her being ture Noble Phantasm. Due to its status as a Noble Phantasm, it is relatively high in endurance. It also has the ability to raise the parameters of strength, endurance, and agility by one. However, this will not occur under Mad Enhancement. Since this was also the weapon that threw back the Golden Horde, it deals additional damage to Servants who were Mongols. This Noble Phantasm may be used during Mad Enhancement, and is the only Noble Phantasm that can be used in that form.
CLASS ABILITIES: //[/color]
Mad Enhancement: C
Boost up all parameters by one except for Luck and Mana, but in exchange, Ilya can no longer think or speak properly. This reverts to a time when she was not invited to a celebration held by Prince Vladimir, and destroyed all the church steeples in Kiev. She was appeased after Vladimir sent for her.
SKILLS: //[/color]
Battle Continuation: B
As a warrior and the designated guardian of Russia, Ilya was built into the world of combat. Being geared for such things, she developed the ability to continue fighting, even when she was being overwhelmed by the opposing army.
Charisma: C
As one of the Guardians of Russia and a national hero, Ilya may no have the same charisma as a King, and may not be able to lead all of Russia, but she is capable of at least leading the Russian army to war, her power very motivating to the troops.
Eternal Arms Mastership: A
Mastership of combat arts has reached the point of being said to be unrivaled in one's era. By complete merging of mind, body and technique, it is possible to make use of full fighting skills even when under the influence of any sort of mental hindrance. As a Russian knight who enjoyed parties and drinks all around, Ilya Muromets often fought in battles under the influence, and have gotten use to displaying the same skill set under a degraded mind. Mad Enhancement is no exception.
Aegis of Faith: D
A pseudo-supernatural protection that springs from religious faith, protecting the body and mind from harm. However, it is not true protection derived from a divinity. After retiring as a warrior, Ilya was very religious, and her faith in God did well to serve her as a better end. However, if she adopted the ways of the sword again, divine protection isn't going to give as much as before, is it?
