Bond 2:

Though he may be a famed writer, part of his life is shrouded in mystery.

In any case, after having penned several works, his fame knew no bounds.

The veteran playwrights of the day gave him the pejorative of "upstart crow", signifying their resentment.

Bond 3:

Shakespeare was able to expose what people would normally keep hidden with short and effective language.

Being needled suddenly by a speech so rambling and structureless would indeed come as a shock.

Bond 4:

Enchant: A

A unique skill, the impartment of a concept to weapons.

Originally it referred to the bestowal of magical concepts, but in Shakespeare's case, he is able to draw out a weapon's strength beyond its limit by writing about it.

"The play will now begin, here dwells thunderous applause"

Rank: B

Type: Anti-Unit Noble Phantasm

The ultimate play released by Shakespeare.

Regardless of enemy or ally, every subject is tailored into becoming a character of a play of his writing.

It is an Anti-Mind Noble Phantasm that may break the spirit of any hero.

One of the most preeminent Servants who "won't fight" in a Holy Grail War.

As long as he is interested in an interesting choice that you have made, his pen will remain inspired, and on the other hand, the more mediocre your choice is, the harder it is to get him to put out any effort.

Even now, that is something that hasn't changed.
