The premise of
Fate is Servants. Servants are historical and mythological people who died and gained supernatural abilities based on their legends. Joan of Arc, Hercules, Medusa, you name it.

Servants are summoned and controlled by Masters--people skilled in magecraft. Servants and Masters compete against each other to the death to win a wish-granting item called the Holy Grail.

Servants are placed into categories called Classes. Here are the classes and their descriptions below.

Saber; Heroic Spirit of the Sword. Considered to be the most balanced class, Sabers have good offense, defense, and speed. To qualify as a Saber, you must be exceptionally skilled with swords, or your stories must focus on a very specific sword.

Archer; Heroic Spirit of the Bow. This class specializes in long-range attacks. To qualify, you actually need to be skilled with ANY projectile weapon, not just a bow and arrow.

Lancer; Heroic Spirit of the Polearm. Lancers are the fastest Servants, so hit-and-run tactics are effective. To qualify as one, you must be skilled with long-range melee weapons.

Rider; Heroic Spirit of the Mount. To qualify, your stories must focus on you riding vehicles or animals. Riders tend to be weaker without their mounts.

Assassin; Heroic Spirit of Silence. This class is the weakest, so they prefer to fight dirty and kill their targets quickly. This class consists of assassins, murderers, martial artists, executioners and tyrants; killers whose victims can't fight back.

Caster; Heroic Spirit of Sorcery. This class is the worst in combat, so they tend to compensate with expertise in magic and high intelligence. Casters are usually magicians, but can also be top-tier musicians, artists, scientists, or writers.

Berserker; Heroic Spirit of Rage. Berserkers are physically the strongest class, and have lost their sanity in exchange for raw power. Berserkers are usually either very strong warriors, or people who have gone insane at one point in life.
