Saber of Black, is the Saber class servant of the Black faction in the Lost War. There is practically no information available about the true identity of Saber in any public capacity.
== Personality ==
Saber is a proactively confusing individual, often speaking in sadistic poetry or in dialects unknown to anyone else. He often speaks of doomsday scenarios, some being totally random, others following a more linear pattern of an entity that rose from the darkest pits of the earth. He can often be compared to the role of a jester, often presenting a very positive attitude though more in a mocking and depressing fashion than anything else, often making light of tragedy for no reason than apparently for his own amusement. Other than his own antics and shenanigans, Saber is also what would be a self-described philosopher and gives his insight to any would be victim of his own seeming delusions. Often his advice seems trivial, disgusting, barbaric, or plain idiotic and foolish. Though he promotes it as something to think on more so than to brush it off.
== History ==
(The following text has been deciphered from ancient tomes and grimoire, not all have been accurately translated and most history related to any figure resembling Saber has been lost to time.)
"The Red Jester of Death, fighting along the wars throughout centuries. Fighting for what? This question I have not the answer but for what is certain is that for as long as I have lived I have not seen such a creature exist. For the many centuries and the instances of his appearances, he has left a cold chill down my spine, it is quite rare for the dead to experience such occurrences. My first sighting of this...thing....was around the year 1223. I was at a private event thrown by a long since passed friend of mine, we were gathered around as a group of business associates to have a commemorative portrait of us commissioned. Noting how long a portrait of such size will take, my mind wandered, there I saw it, for the first time I saw it. Peering out of the darkness of the window in front of us, the painter sliding his brush cross his canvas, I glimpsed at what at first I thought was a mere apparition brought on by exhaustion or a specter formed from the glittering fire behind us bouncing light off the window glass; but no, it was real It had to have been! After the portrait was done I was a pure mess, my suit was completely drenched in sweat and my eyes for the many hours we stood there, my eyes did not wander from that window. Everyone took note of a strange abnormality in the painting however, I was called over to inspect, what I saw I was not prepared for by any means. A Jester, peeking over my form in shadow. From then on I grew wary of this figure. What did it want? Where did it come from? What did it have to do with me? I began to study it, looking for instances of it's appearance. There wasn't much, but there were leads. I had found some ancient text speaking of it. Old pottery with it's visage engraved upon it. Paintings where it had creeped into the work. Even now, over five-hundred years later I still see it in my nightmares, growing ever closer."
~ Excerpt from the 34th volume of Carlile Marcus Jameson of Whitecrown's Journal.
"I heard footsteps coming from my lower hallways just now, I don't know what it was perhaps an invader or The Jester has come to mock me yet again. His cackling be the worse of his annoyances. A light knocking at my door, I sit here writing in a dampness, as if I were drowning in a pool of my own secretions. I don't know what will happen if I open the door, but my curiosity has gotten the best of me. I may die tonight, for safe keeping I will lock this journal away, so that my story will live on. Goodbye."
