Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Noble Phantasms
Gáe Bolg: Piercing Crimson Lance: Lancer's Noble Phantasm, the cursed spear, Gáe Bolg which was given to him by his master Scáthach in the Land of Shadows. It was created from the skull of the great beast, Curruid. It functions in the exact same way as his older counterpart's Gáe Bolg, possessing both the Anti-Unit and Anti-Army function.
Class Skills
Magic Resistance: An ability that grants protection against magical effects. As opposed to the Resistance effect, which merely rejects Magical Energy, this ability cancels the spells altogether. Lancer's C Rank cancels spells with a chant below two verses, but cannot defend against Magecraft on the level of High-Thaumaturgy and Greater Rituals.
Personal Skills
Divinity: The measure of one's Divine blood, reflected in high ranks by the user becoming part Divine Spirit, though it decreases if the user dislikes the gods. It allows Lancer to reduce "purge defense" in proportion to the rank of his Divinity, allowing him to break through defensive abilities such as Achilles' Andreas Amarantos. Cú Chulainn is the son of Lugh, the God of Light, who possessed every skill, and thus has B-rank Divinity.
Protection from Arrows: A skill that provides increased defense against ranged attacks through the prediction of the projectiles' trajectories, whether through hearing the air being cut or sensing an enemy's killing intent. As long as the shooter is within Lancer's line of sight, he can track down their projectiles and defend against them easily, but it offers no protection against extremely long range attacks or those with a great area-of-effect.
Rune Magic: A skill that measures one's knowledge of this type of Northern European Magecraft. Lancer has mastered the original eighteen Norse Runes, but due to being summoned as a Lancer his rank is only at B putting it on the same level as his Older Counterpart.
Beast Killer: Is the ability to unleash a special attack towards magical beasts and wild animals. As a monster-hunting specialist, Lancer has a B+ Rank in this skill.
