History Characters / Fateextra

* {{Deconstruction}}: It seems to his hobby. If asked about Lancer [[spoiler:Elizabeth]], he calls her "unsightly" because if she thinks that other people are nothing but pigs, then she's a foolish woman for being narcissist in front of a bunch of "pigs". He isn't exempt from his own sharp tongue, calling himself a useless Servant for having all his perimeters E and prone to SelfDeprecation when he looks back to the time when he was alive.

* IJustWantToBeNormal: Her entire character arc is that she's under a delusion, brought by her id_skills, that she's a normal girl who just happens to get pushed around by everyone. She tries to do delicate tasks even though her fingers are literal swords, she tries to be affectionate but her very personality is twisted by nature and she would harm her target of affection without fail, her DrawAggro skill makes everyone around her unable to resist the urge to abuse her and her other skill makes her unaware that [[DoesNotKnowHerOwnStrength she's causing all of these]]. Her inability to realize that she's not normal makes her lashes out for the wrong reasons, and she ends up getting some sense beaten into her.

* FaceOfAnAngelMindOfADemon: She's an adorable TokenMiniMoe free from the fanservice of her family that's currently [[spoiler:attempting to wipe out all of humanity when not indulging in her torturing hobby.]]

* ClingyJealousGirl: Shortly after rescuing either Rin or Rani, Caster begins practicing an apparently GroinAttack-based martial art ("Polygamist Castration Fist") while angrily shouting about how "other deities may allow harems, but never will I!" Perhaps fortunately, the protagonist is too innocent to pick up on the obvious implications, and manages to defuse the situation with a few sincere complements about sticking to the fighting style that suits her best.

* WrongGenreSavvy: She likens her ambitions and [[spoiler:metamorphosis]] to that of Literature/TheLittleMermaid's, the protagonist of her favorite story. However, her intended similarities are ultimately superficial, with [[spoiler:BB]] ultimately resembling the lovelorn heroine and the siren's bittersweet quest for humanity more than her.

* MyMasterRightOrWrong: [[spoiler:His reason for following Kiara is that a servant follows their master, so he will follow her to hell itself. However, this is only out of duty and he has no love for Kiara herself]].

* LoveMakesYouEvil: She's Sakura's discarded affection for Hakuno, and despite her pleasant overall attitude and demeanor she is not a very nice person.[[spoiler:Zig-zagged in the final fight where she muses that she did all this to protect someone, yet can't remember who as a result of the Moon Cell interfering. Subverted entirely in that it was Kiara hacking her that made her turn out this way, which is only revealed on the CCC route.]]

* SelfMadeOrphan: [[spoiler:He accidently murdered his parents when his attempt to use magecraft after getting the family crest backfired]].

* BiTheWay: Thanks to the protagonist's PurelyAestheticGender.

* BiTheWay: Whatever her faults, her clear bisexuality is not considered one of them. She tries to love people for who they are, not what gender they are.
-->''"I love both men and women. I love all humans, without regard to their gender."''
** Though this line implies she ''might'' like girls more:
-->''"Beautiful boys are nice. Beautiful girls are even better! My single preference is beauty!"''

* BiTheWay: She treats the protagonist like her husband to some extent and is rather flirty. If you point out that [[PurelyAestheticGender you're a girl]], she says that sort of thing doesn't matter to her and then corrects herself by saying she'd be a little more at ease if the protagonist were male. Tohsaka becomes rather leery around her in week five because of this.

* BiTheWay: Not only does she compliment you (possibly flirting with you as well) when you first met her in the Prologue, [[http://i.imgur.com/F2NRzrl.png but even if you play as the female protagonist]], [[http://i.imgur.com/oco8dIH.jpg she still kisses you (in order to install a program for you) in one scene]].

* KungFuWizard: Aside from some jokes about her infamous "Polygamist Castration Fist," averted in the original game, though CCC adds it in as an actual attack.

* FinalBossPreview: Downplayed in the Last Encore anime. The ActionPrologue shows [[FirstEpisodeTwist Savior defeating Female!Hakuno and the playable Saber]], but [[spoiler:when Male!Hakuno and Saber arrive at the Moon Cell core, Savior has long abandoned the place, and only his TimeLimitBoss Noble Phantasm remains with Twice's Dead Face to oppose the protagonists]].

* FinalBossPreview: Downplayed in the Last Encore anime. The ActionPrologue shows [[FirstEpisodeSpoiler Savior defeating Female!Hakuno and the playable Saber]], but [[spoiler:when Male!Hakuno and Saber arrive at the Moon Cell core, Savior has long abandoned the place, and only his TimeLimitBoss Noble Phantasm remains with Twice's Dead Face to oppose the protagonists]].

One of three Servants available to the protagonist. Archer originally appeared in ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'' as the Servant of Rin Tohsaka.

* BornUnlucky: To him, the Luck stat is the DumpStat to end all {{Dump Stat}}s.

** Luck is really his only true DumpStat, as each stat applies a damage boost to skills, which increases by rank (so a minor boost at D, a significant one at B, etc.).

* JackOfAllStats: His gameplay encourages him to balance his stats to make him stronger at the end of the game. Offensively he is better than Caster thanks to better physical skills and not being handicapped by low health at the start, while having better magic defenses than Saber alongside stronger skills at end game. However, they both are better in areas he lacks, such as Caster being better skill wise, and Saber being better outright combat wise.

* TrueNeutral: InUniverse alignment, same as his ''F/SN'' counterpart. Likely a result of him being a Counter Guardian, as the job description is to ensure mankind's and the world's continued survival by trying to keep the balance between the two.

* KnightInShiningArmor

** FinalBossPreview: Downplayed in the Last Encore anime. The ActionPrologue shows [[FirstEpisodeSpoiler Savior defeating Female!Hakuno and the playable Saber]], but [[spoiler:when Male!Hakuno and Saber arrive at the Moon Cell core, Savior has long abandoned the place, and only his TimeLimitBoss Noble Phantasm remains with Twice's Dead Face to oppose the protagonists]].

* LastOfHisKind: ''And'' also the first. A Character Materials entry released for VideoGame/FateGrandOrder relevant to [[spoiler:Solomon]] mentions that he is the only human to ever achieve enlightenment.

* AscendedExtra: He plays a slightly more important role in CCC. It's not so much of being more important as being talkative and seeable everyday and providing insight on what is going on. [[spoiler:He even gains a Servant, Lancer, and becomes an optional boss]].

* ArtificialIntelligence: Designed as one by the Moon Cell in order to have her properly take care of patients. It leads her to falling in love with the Protagonist and eventually to the events of CCC.

* BonusBoss: Only fought in New Game Plus, and she is entirely optional ''for a good reason''.

* BerserkButton: Fate/EXTRA material mentions that she can get truly angry if you were to call [[spoiler:Golden Hind by its original name, "Pelican".]]

* AxCrazy

* BonusBoss: [[spoiler:In CCC, he is a optional boss and has Kotomine as his master.]]

* FourStarBadass: [[spoiler:His true name is Lu Bu, one of the more infamous military commanders during the Literature/RomanceOfTheThreeKingdoms]].

* BonusBoss: [[spoiler:The original ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'' version of him and Rin can be fought as bosses in CCC.]]

* TrueNeutral: InUniverse alignment, same as his FSN counterpart. Likely a result of him being a Counter Guardian, as the job description is to ensure mankind's and the world's continued survival by trying to keep the balance between the two.

* BonusBoss: [[spoiler:In CCC, she is one as the servant of Twice.]]

* DumpStat: Like all the Servants, she has essentially no use for luck or Agility and only needs strength for her Spirit Break ability. Even Defence gets little focus, which has some pretty [[GlassCannon obvious consequences]], though.

* GoneHorriblyRight: [[spoiler:Her Servant Ending in CCC in the nutshell. In her attempt to save her Master from Moon Cell's deletion, she called up her full-powered nine tails form. Each tail gained sentience and became Alter Egos Tamamo 9, each wanting some of their Goshujin-sama. Caster, [[ClingyJealousGirl as expected]], cast the other eight to the Far Side, which they succeed in escaping, and they're now rampaging around the world looking for the traitorous original and the protagonist.]]

* {{Sizeshifter}}: [[spoiler:Full powered Caster is ''much'' larger than mortals.]]

* The Cameo:[[spoiler:Briefly appears silhouetted in the anime during Twice's flashbacks]].

* EvilDebtCollector: Played for laughs in CCC; after the protagonist borrows his money to buy something for Sakura, he immediately sics Gawain on them to collect the debt. According to WordOfGod, the male protagonist hates him for that.

* WideEyedIdealist: [[spoiler:No matter what horrors he witnessed, he continues to believe in humanity's potential to become more. According to Extra Materials, his faith in humanity is such that it elevated him to the level of a messiah.]]

!!!Voiced by: Ayaka Imamura (Japanese), Creator/CheramiLeigh (English), Erika Langarica (Latin American Spanish)

* BarelyThereSwimwear: An unlockable outfit in CCC.

* ChainedByFashion: Her CCC "Virgin Bride" costume has chains around her neck and wrist.

* HotBlooded: If it's something that she's passionate of, then she will ''be'' passionate. Her art, her people's wellbeing, and her Master are things that usually give out this reaction. There's also her new skill in [=CCC=], Rose of Closure that Wins the Star;

* FaceDeathWithDignity: [[spoiler:Subverted in EXTRA, but in CCC, he willingly sacrifices himself and makes peace with the Protagonist before dying. This trope also applies in ''Last Encore''.]]

* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: [[spoiler:In CCC, he saves the protagonist after BB tries to have them deleted because he remembers their acts of kindness to him as a Virtual Ghost in the first game.]]

* CreepyCoolCrosses: Like her F/SN counterpart, she has one on her top.

** [[spoiler:A possible case near the end of the CCC Route. As the [[AllThereInTheManual CCC]] Dictionary implies that there might be another version of them that exists, which will continue on through the events of EXTRA, the originals still remain frozen, and Sakura gave the one from the CCC Route a new body to use.]]

* {{Determinator}}: First seen when they refuse to accept their death during the prelims. That's the reason why their Servants answer their call.
-->'''Talent''': Mental fortitude (Male), Never giving up (Female)
** Also in Fate/EXTRA CCC, in the later chapters, things starts to get grimmer and darker when the protagonist is trapped in this dark realm by [[spoiler:BB]]. But, he/she keeps crawling for a way out despite voices telling him/her to give up. Later, as the protagonist continues onward to the place where [[spoiler:his/her Servant was sealed by BB]], they keep on going despite being nearly [[spoiler:disintegrated]] along the way.
--> *[[spoiler:The deletion reacting up to their chest]]* ''It seems [[spoiler:my stomach has completely vanished]], (...) That’s great; my body feels lighter, I should be able to walk faster now.''

* NonActionGuy: Early on, it's mentioned that you're basically dead once your Servant gets KO'd.

* SchrodingersPlayerCharacter: Both male and female protagonists can be seen in the background of the prologue. You only play as one of them per playthrough.
** [[spoiler:In CCC, there’s a slight variation between female and male protagonist, most glaring is Meltryllis’s infatuation shifts to Archer if the protagonist is female and as a result, male protagonist can’t unlock Archer’s third SG.]] Different Servant and Gender combination choice also changes several of their relationship between their chosen Servant.

* SweetTooth: CCC materials reveal that the Female Protagonist likes candy and the Male Protagonist himself favors anmitsu (a type of Japanese dessert).

* WhatBeautifulEyes: Both Saber and Rin note many times of their determined eyes when they have their goal set in mind. In CCC, BB's infatuation with the protagonist often revolves around the fact that she likes their glaring eyes, and her Secret Garden is the only one that has the "looking into each other's eyes" pose. Even ''Gilgamesh'' thinks that Hakuno's eyes are "pleasing" when [[spoiler:he got sealed by BB and his "instinct" appears before them]].

!!!Voiced by: Creator/AtsushiAbe (M)(Drama CD/Anime), Creator/YuiIshikawa (F) (Anime) (Japanese), Creator/BillyKametz (M), Ryan Bartley (F) (English), Miguel Angel Ruiz (M) (Latin American Spanish), Susana Moreno (F) (Latin American Spanish)

!!!Voiced by: Creator/RomiPark (Japanese), Laura Stahl (English), Emiliano Ugarte (Latin American Spanish)

* AdaptationPersonalityChange: In the game, Hakuno is characterized as being fairly... well, plain - due in large part to TheReveal [[spoiler: that they were an NPC given a human will]], and their character arc is them becoming more emotional. In the anime, Hakuno starts off as aloof and distant, being filled with hatred for the Moon Cell and the way the system is run.
** [[JustifiedTrope Justified.]] [[spoiler: Hakuno is not the true Hakuno of the anime, but an anthropomorphic personification of the hatred of all the masters who died in the Moon Cell and his appearance was based on one of them, the original Hakuno herself.]]

* InSeriesNickname: Goes hand-on-hand with HelloInsertNameHere; you can also pick a personal nickname. But in general: Saber’s Praetor, Archer’s Master, Caster’s Goshujin-sama(Master, doubles as Husband), Gilgamesh’s Mongrel, Red Lancer’s Pig (male protagonist) and Baby Squirrel (female protagonist), Sakura’s and BB’s Senpai, [[spoiler: and after Leo’s death, Rani’s Chief/President]].

* ThePowerOfHate: In the anime, Hakuno more or less admits to this. For some reason, he feels extreme hatred towards the Moon Cell, and it empowers him to {{Determinator}} levels. [[spoiler: This is because he's a Dead Face, which is basically a walking personification of hatred.]]
* PsychicDreamsForEveryone: [[spoiler: Shown Gil's past from the perspective of Enkidu, with Enkidu being the one giving them the visions.]]

* AdaptationalHeroism: While he's still a dick, he's less enough of one for fans to find him somewhat tolerable and likeable. CCC Fox Tail is this UpToEleven [[spoiler:admitting that he does see Hakuno as a friend and doing all that he can to save him from Kazuradrop. It's telling that he actually got Violent to respect him and call him her master.]]

* ArtificialHuman: [[spoiler:Either he's a designer baby or a homunculus; his parents seem less to have "birthed" him and more to have "created" him. His genius while being 8 years old is because of that.]]
* BloodFromTheMouth: [[spoiler: After Meltryllis stabs him.]]
* ChildProdigy: [[spoiler:In real life, he's actually an eight-year-old gaming prodigy.]]
* DisappearedDad: [[spoiler:Or rather, one he never met, since his mother used a sperm donor.]]
* DyingMomentOfAwesome: [[spoiler: Hacks the system to place a virus inside himself, and lets himself get absorbed by Meltryllis to nerf her absurdly high level.]]
* EvenEvilHasStandards: [[spoiler:Really loves [[CurbstompBattle beating up weak players]], but just cannot accept Meltryllis' insane game-breaking levels and thus, throws in his share of effort to take her out]].
** His actions in Last Encore are all motivated by shock of learning he killed a person in real life.

* {{Foreshadowing}}: He repeatedly references "prize money" like in any other online gaming tourney, even offering to split it if the Protagonist throws the match. With everyone else aiming for the Holy Grail, Shinji clearly has no idea what the War is actually about... which becomes clear [[spoiler: when he loses]].

* ItsAllAboutMe: Justified. [[spoiler: He thinks everything is a game during Extra and doesn't realize the danger he and the others face. He completely drops this and is a NiceGuy in CCC since he remembers what happened. There's also the fact that he's really only eight years old, and children at that age are still rather self-engaged.]]

** According to the playable Archer, he's this. Considering that he thinks it's all a game [[spoiler: and he's only eight years old]], its very possible that he's sincere about his offer ([[ButThouMust which you cannot accept]]) before the Elimination Battle, rather than just being a condescending jerk.

* LooseLips: He tends to brag (and drop info in the process) about his Servant a lot. Justified, since he's [[spoiler: an eight-year-old kid, and kids at that age tend to brag a lot]]. His overconfidence doesn't help, either.
* NeverMyFault: All the time. [[spoiler: But let's face it, most people at eight years old do the same thing.]]

** Not Blackmore himself, but it's part of his motivation. [[spoiler: He wants to claim the Holy Grail in order to bring back his wife.]]

* AssimilationBackfire: [[spoiler: In the anime adaption, she absorbs the data from items located throughout the floor to sustain her physical form, but doing so begins to backfire when she takes in the mana of too many things, resulting in her body transforming into a disgusting ShapeshifterMashup of the things she has drained of mana, that eventually loses any semblance of a human form]].
* BlessedWithSuck: [[spoiler: In the anime adaption, due to her status as being already deceased, the Moon Cell couldn't kill her when she technically lost to Hakuno in their skirmish, allowing her to continue her existence. Unfortunately, it came with a whole new page of complications when the Moon Cell's other sets of programming tried to erase her on the foundation as a "ghost", causing her to suffer an endless groundhog day tug-of-war for a millennia instead.]]

* FateWorseThanDeath: In the anime [[spoiler: she becomes a terrifying monster made up of items and objects that she drained the data of to sustain herself. In this state, she cannot speak or really control her actions, lashing out in fear and pain until she went mad. She only regains her sanity when she spots Hakuno with the book he read to her in the past, just in time for Saber and Rin to kill her.]].

* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Due to katakana ambiguity, her Japanese name could be romanized either "Lanrukun" or "Ranruu-kun".

** [[spoiler: In the anime, he became a Dead Face when the cast meets him in Episode 8 and is determined to kill Hakuno.]]
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: [[spoiler: In CCC, he saves the protagonist after BB tries to have them deleted because he remembers their acts of kindness to him as a Virtual Ghost in the first game.]]

* DissonantSerenity: When you face him [[spoiler: the second time]], at least at first.

* AmbiguouslyBrown: In her lunch scene, she cooks Egyptian food, and in [[spoiler:the 5th Week's [[IntimateHealing Magic Circuit Repair scene]]]] Archer wonders whether she's Egyptian or Babylonian. The presence of a bindhi on her forehead also suggests an Indian influence in her design. In ''CCC'' she clarifies that she's Egyptian, but her creator enjoyed Indian culture and that influenced her design somewhat.

* NotQuiteDead: [[spoiler:She somehow survives both her own self-destruction ''and'' being stabbed by ''[[OneHitKill Gae Bolg]]'' regardless of which girl is saved.]]

* TakingYouWithMe: [[spoiler:During her battle with Rin, she notices that she's likely to lose, and due to a directive, she is to destroy herself ''and'' the Moon Cell in case of failure. It doesn't work due to the protagonist's intervention, regardless of who you choose to save.]]
* UnskilledButStrong: She's an excellent hacker and a powerful Master, but in battle she is noted to display much less skill than Tohsaka, [[spoiler:which gives the latter the edge when the are paired during the third round. Rani knows it as well as it turns what would have been an even fight into one in Tohsaka's favor, causing her to attempt to destroy the Moon Cell itself.]]

* AffablyEvil: He's pretty nice throughout the game to the protagonists, [[spoiler: even after they kill his brother.]]

* NotSoStoic: Gets really excited at the prospect of fighting the protagonist. [[spoiler: Also, when he's defeated. He even [[TearsOfRemorse cries]].]]

--> '''Twice''': [[spoiler: ''"To see mankind engage in a grand war of mutual extinction."'']]
--> '''Protagonist''': [[spoiler: ''There's no hint of insanity visible in his eyes. Naturally, and with obvious sincerity he can somehow utter such a statement of absolute madness.'']]

* ShellShockedVeteran: [[spoiler: ''From childhood''. It was so bad, just seeing images depicting war gave him really bad panic attacks.]]
* ThirdPersonPerson: When he describes his backstory. [[spoiler: To be more accurate, his original's backstory.]]

* AmbiguousSituation: Her fate at the end of the first episode is left vague. Shinji mentions hiding her in a safe place, but her name appears later on the tower in the school, indicating she might have been deemed worthy of becoming a Master. [[spoiler: Shinji's brutual stabbing of Hakuno, and the Moon Cell itself massacring the students and [=NPCs=] left also leaves her fate very up in the air, until Episode 6, when she's revealed to have made it to the third floor, but even still its not clear if she is still on the floor, dead, or moved on, as the floor messes with people's minds, and by the end of the next episode, her fate is left completely unresolved]].

* UnfortunateNames: She had been mocked in the past because "Amari" means "scraps" in Japanese.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: [[spoiler: Her fate is left completely vague by the end of episode 7, and the closest thing the audience is given is the implication she might have been beaten by Rin. Still, by the time the group moves on to the next floor, her status is not mentioned]].

-->''"Beautiful boys are nice. Beautiful girls are even better!"''

* CallBack: She said she wouldn't mind if she was called [[spoiler: "The Whore of Babylon"]] because of her historical reputation, as long as the main character likes her... guess what she gets called during the the 7th week? Granted, it's someone else calling her that.

--> ''While it is a staple of theater, I do not like it much.''

* InSeriesNickname: [[spoiler: "The Whore of Babylon"]] is a figure in [[Literature/TheBible The Book of Revelations.]] Many scholars attribute it to [[spoiler: Rome under the reign of Emperor Nero; since Christianity was persecuted. [[HistoricalVillainDowngrade This was downgraded to "discouraged religion"]] in the {{Franchise/Nasuverse}}, but since Nero's a [[HistoricalGenderFlip woman]] here, it now refers to ''her.'']]

* InterruptedIntimacy: [[spoiler:Her second Secret Garden event]]. You can thank Rin's phonecall for that.

* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: Saber is not going to be giddy over your coming through for her in week five, [[{{Tsundere}} not at all.]]

* WalkingSwimsuitScene: Saber does not like the heat in the 5th week Arena (which is a jungle), and expresses the desire to do this should the Item Shop sell bathing suits. In the sequel game, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLxek6llm0o you can unlock a skimpy red swimsuit for her to wear.]]

* BonusBoss: [[spoiler: The original ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'' version of him and Rin can be fought as bosses in CCC.]]

* FieldOfBlades: [[spoiler: Unlimited Blade Works.]]

* HeroicSacrifice: Unlike ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'', the player can learn what exactly motivated him to make his contract to become a Counter Guardian. [[spoiler: The details may not be 100% clear, but it involved a nuclear reactor in the middle of melting down and having to run a very long way very fast, using up all his magic just to get there, and finding himself unable to stop it on his own.]]

* MythologyGag: He's one huge repository of these. [[spoiler: He compares Shinji and Kotomine to their ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'' counterparts, refers to encountering an invisible sword wielded by "her", and he even compares Alice to Ilya.]]

* BeneathTheMask: Caster will let slip some [[CuteAndPsycho scary]] comments from time to time. [[spoiler: Such as wondering ''out loud'' whether the cries of her opponent will be as good as the last ones.]]

* BonusBoss: [[spoiler: In CCC, she is one as the servant of Twice.]]

* {{Foreshadowing}}: A conversation while walking around the Arena on the first week has her saying that she feels nostalgic. [[spoiler: The last time she was there was as [[BigBad Twice]]'s Servant.]]

* HypocriticalHumor: She gets slightly freaked out, [[spoiler: but is also a little happy,]] when you tell her race doesn't matter, cute is cute.

* IJustWantToHaveFriends: [[spoiler: This is the reason Tamamo left her Celestial dwelling and ventured out into the world. She saw how happy serving her made the people and wanted to experience the same thing.]]
* IHatePastMe: [[spoiler: One of the bonus bosses of CCC is Caster when she was Twice's Servant. If you also have Caster as your Servant, it quickly shows that the two don't get along even though they're technically the same person. In her last Secret Garden, Caster's original self also expresses contemptuous disgust towards her Servant incarnation.]]

* {{Sizeshifter}}: [[spoiler: Full powered Caster is ''much'' larger than mortals.]]

* SuperPoweredEvilSide: It is said that if she is summoned by someone with an evil heart, she will [[spoiler: kill one hundred heroes and become one of the three great disasters of Japan. Reacquiring her missing tails will also restore her full power and cause her to relapse into her evil ways.]]
* The Cameo:[[spoiler: Briefly appears silhouetted in the anime during, Twice's flashbacks.]]

** Charm: Spirit Theft allows Caster to steal MP whenever using the ''Break'' command, but it also costs 20 MP per use, so she needs to absorb ''at least'' 20 MP for the skill to be profitable... and then not die in the process. Go ahead, spam ''Break'' so Caster can fill up her MP. With her [[LampshadeHanging notably poor defence and HP]], what's the worst that could happen? It's not a bad option, but maximizing the MP gain from the skill typically means dragging out a fight as long as possible versus an enemy program, which makes the already tedious LevelGrinding even more so, particularly since Caster's melee damage is low and her ''Curse'' skills are the best way for her to deal with mooks.
** Subverted once you've earned enough skill points to unlock Breath of the Soul, a passive skill that automatically restores 10% of Caster's maximum MP after a battle. Coincidentally, by the time you have the points to unlock the skill, Caster will have at least 300 MP, meaning her ''Curse'' skills are now free: at 30 MP each, she can use one against enemy programs while dungeon crawling and will have the MP restored after the battle. Hallelujah! (And since her MP growth is so high, as Caster continues to level up, she can easily restore 40+ MP via her passive.)

--> ''"Remember my name by the death from my passing! [[spoiler: [[GratuitousSpanish Temeroso el Draque!]] I am the woman who set the sun!]] You rascals, it's time! The king of storms, a swarm of ghosts, this is the beginning of the [[spoiler: Wild Hunt]]!"''

* CoolBoat: [[spoiler: The Golden Hind.]]

%%* FaceDeathWithDignity

* MoreDakka: [[spoiler: Her Noble Phantasm summons her ship, the Golden Hind, as well as her armada, which bombards the target with cannons.]]
* MythologyGag: [[spoiler: Shinji's Servant being a Rider class, and the first to be defeated.]]
* NotSoDifferent: Both she and the playable Saber wish to enjoy life and all its pleasures to the fullest, though their methods vary. Both also threaten each other with ropes (trussing up and hanging, respectively).
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Well, her role as a Servant and her apparent ability to get along well with her Master might play a role, but she does demand a lot of money to fight and in an early quest, [[spoiler: she gets a power boost unless you can prevent her from reaching several treasures]].

* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: [[spoiler: Possibly, as it's hinted that she may be Queen Elizabeth in disguise in the Japanese version.]]

* ArcherArchetype: He is an Archer class Servant, and he's pretty much the first one seen to rely on his bow. He's also pretty independent, as shown by [[spoiler: his ambush of the protagonist on campus]], which was not ordered by his Master.

* LegacyCharacter: One of many who had the identity.
* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: [[spoiler: During his life he fought for the people of his village, whom rewarded him with betrayal after betrayal. Despite all this, he still fought for them, as it was the right thing to do.]] It sucks being an Archer in the {{Franchise/Nasuverse}}.
* OutOfCharacterAlert: He’s usually very laidback, so when he goes as far as being verbally and physically abusive to Passionlip, it tips everyone off to just what’s wrong with the Alter Ego as previously Alice and Caster also bullied her too cruelly for their standards.
%%* PeekABangs
%%* PoisonedWeapons
* PowerLimiter: [[spoiler: Due to his under-handed tactics, his stats got decreased [[NoFairCheating due to his breaking of the rules]]. Due to his Master's HonorBeforeReason and the rules of this Grail War, he is forced into a one-vs-one duel rather than his preferred [[CombatPragmatist fighting style]]. As a result, he never stood a chance and we never got to see Archer's full power. However, in the anime, due to the rules of the war having been completely changed and Dan becoming more pragmatic and more of a villain, he uses his abilities in full.]]

* LossOfIdentity: [[spoiler:Caster's Reality Marble, the Nameless Forest, causes people to forget their names, their sense of self and then, [[RetGone that they ever existed]].]]

** This particular facet makes her an extreme case of PuzzleBoss: looking into the Phantasm's description [[spoiler:lets you know that she simply repeats the same moves over and over with no deviation between Phantasm casts]].
* WeakButSkilled: Every single one of her stats is [[RankInflation Rank E]]. She balances this out with a plethora of high ranked skills [[spoiler: and a Reality Marble]].

* TheButcher: He was known as the [[spoiler: Kazikli Voyvoda/Impaler Prince]] in life.

* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: He loves it so much, his Ceremonial Purge skill involves doing it to himself. Strangely, it only damages your Servant. [[spoiler: His Noble Phantasm even has the title of Fortress of Impalement.]]

** He [[spoiler: impaled many of his own country's nobility]] because he felt that they had destabilized [[spoiler: Wallachia.]] He also [[spoiler: impaled thousands of Turkish soldiers as psychological warfare]], all in the name of protecting [[spoiler: the Christian kingdoms from the Ottomans]].

* NotSoDifferent: He has something in common with all the playable Servants. [[spoiler: Like Saber, he was the victim of HistoricalVillainUpgrade. Like Archer, he was betrayed by those he protected because of his crazy devotion to an ideal. Like Caster, he was so strongly believed to be a monster by people that he actually became one.]]

* ColonyDrop: Her Blut die Schwester conjures an illusion of the Crimson Moon.
* GodGuise: Her Master proclaims her to be a true god. She is more of a natural phenomena, comparable to a tornado or earthquake.

* SkywardScream: Upon using Blut die Schwester, she leans back and lets out a howl.
* WolverineClaws: She can extend her fingers into blood-red talons.

A Chinese martial artist whose skill in the art of Bājíquán was so advanced that it was said he could slay any opponent with a single blow. Though he is famed as a Lancer, his Master elected to summon a younger version for compatibility, and for his Servant's ferocity and unquestioning impulse to fight during his youth.

%%* BareFistedMonk

* EvenEvilHasStandards: He comments that, if he killed as often as [[spoiler: his Master]], he wouldn't be able to sleep at night.
* FaceDeathWithDignity: [[spoiler: The first time you defeat him. He's been turned into a Berserker the second time, so he doesn't have the state of mind for this.]]

* GlowingEyesOfDoom: [[spoiler: After he's brought back as a Berserker.]]

* {{Invisibility}}: [[spoiler: Due to his personal skill, instead of the Assassin class skill, Presence Concealment.]] In gameplay terms, you can't hurt him at all until you nullify it.

* ScreamingWarrior: [[spoiler: After he's brought back as a Berserker.]]

* WeakButSkilled: Makes up for his rather low stats (save for an A Rank AGI) with his unique [[spoiler:Sphere Boundary and Chinese Martial Arts, ranked [[RankInflation A and A+++]] respectively,]] skills.

* BladeOnAStick: [[spoiler: Gae Bolg]].

* BonusBoss: [[spoiler: In CCC, he is a optional boss and has Kotomine as his master.]]
* CoolAndUnusualPunishment: [[spoiler: Is ordered to eat ten mapo tofu in under a minute by Kotomine for losing.]]

* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler: In Rin's route, he delays Rani's self-destruct long enough for the protagonist and Rin to be logged out by the SE.RA.PH, but is gravely wounded and unable to escape the explosion.]]
* MajorInjuryUnderreaction: [[spoiler: If you save Rin, he doesn't really have much of a reaction to Rani's Servant taking off "his entire right side" with one hit.]]
* MythologyGag: In ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'', Lancer says he would have liked [[spoiler: Rin to be his Master.]]
** If you [[spoiler: save Rin]], he [[HeroicSacrifice sacrifices]] himself and comments:

A knight of the Round Table, known as the "Knight of the Sun" and counterpart to King Arthur. Having regretted his decisions in life, in which his personal failings led to the downfall of his king, Gawain hopes to restore his honour by serving Leonard Harway unquestioningly as "the perfect knight".

* TheAtoner: After his actions resulted in the [[spoiler: destruction of Arthur's kingdom, the death of most of the knights and his own disgrace]] he wished for a second chance to [[ToBeLawfulOrGood perfectly serve a king without question]].

* CoolSword: [[spoiler: Excalibur Galatine, which has a shard of the Sun in it.]] Its name is a reference to [[spoiler: both {{Excalibur}}, which certain early French stories had him wielding, and Galatine, the sword he wields in most other stories.]]

* ItsAllMyFault: Believes his hatred for [[spoiler: Lancelot]] caused [[spoiler:the fall of Camelot.]]

%%* OvershadowedByAwesome: By its more famous counterpart, [[spoiler: {{Excalibur}}.]]

* {{Revenge}}: Originally against [[spoiler: Lancelot]]. He eventually forgives [[spoiler: Lancelot before his death.]]

* TrashTalk: [[http://i.imgur.com/GM5Ls.png He's kind of a dick to his enemies.]] He's not even good at it. However, according to materials released....

* TheWorfEffect: [[spoiler: Suffers from this when he fights BB, who proceeds to use the Grail to deal 99999 damage to him.]]

[[folder:Saver/Saviour]]

A celestial being summoned from the records of the Moon Cell by Twice H. Pieceman to act as the strongest Servant and free humanity from suffering. His exact identity is unclear during the game itself, but supplementary materials reveal him to be the Buddha. The Protagonist speculates that Saver does not agree with Pieceman's philosophy of endless war, but agreed to aid him as a way of showing mercy and compassion to Twice's tortured soul. Saver acts as the final boss of the game.

* TheDragon: [[spoiler: Even though he doesn't support Twice's ideals, he's just being compassionate towards the soul of the original Twice.]]
%%* FinalBoss
* GlowingEyesOfDoom: When he glares at his opponents, and looks rather menacing this way.
* InvincibleVillain: In Extra Materials, the final showdown is described as Hakuno simply talking Twice down, implying any notion of actually defeating Saver to be ridiculous. Appropriately, his profile shows us exactly why: He's got martial arts at a higher level than [[WeakButSkilled Li Shuwen]], reduces all damage taken by an amount equivalent to his max health, reduces his enemies' stats dramatically by just being in their presence, and his Noble Phantasms are ludicrously powerful.
* LastOfHisKind: ''And'' also the first. A Character Materials entry released for VideoGame/FateGrandOrder relevant to [[spoiler: Solomon]] mentions that he is the only human to ever achieve enlightenment.

* MythologyGag: In ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'', [[WhatMightHaveBeen the original version of Saber]] was called Saver.
* NiceGuy: [[spoiler:Given how he's ''Buddha'', did you expect anything else?]]
* OneHitKill: His Noble Phantasm, [[spoiler:Amita Amitabha: Transmigration into One.]]
* PhysicalGod: [[spoiler:As a Boddhisattva, he is a god of cosmic proportions, capable of governing the Solar System easily, and is one of the Vajra holders in heaven.]]

* PunchClockVillain: [[spoiler:He's only working with Twice out of pity.]]

* TimeLimitBoss: During the fight, he will charge his Transmigration into One attack. Every two turns, one light will shine on his Mandala, if he lights all seven mirrors, he delivers a OneHitKill, instant Game Over.

* AscendedExtra: He plays a slightly more important role in CCC. It's not so much of being more important as being talkative and seeable everyday and providing insight on what is going on. [[spoiler: He even gains a Servant, Lancer, and becomes an optional boss.]]

* QuestGiver: Gives out {{side quest}}s and in exchange gives you decorations for your room. [[spoiler: Completing all of them in a NewGamePlus lets you fight the BonusBoss.]]

* AlmightyJanitor: ''CCC'' reveals that she [[spoiler: eventually takes ''charge of the entire Moon Cell''. However, she only has a certain amount of control and the one in charge is still the Moon Cell.]]

* ButtMonkey: In the ''Teach Me Blossom-sensei'' omake series where not only is her status as a side character in the original game mercilessly lampshaded to heck here, but even after it was revealed in the final omake that [[spoiler: she upgraded herself to a "boss character", orchestrated Archer's amnesia from the start, and even went as far as to kidnap both main characters in an attempt to usurp their position as protagonist, the three playable Servants still ended up [[CurbStompBattle kicking her ass anyway with little effort]].]] It's so bad that even Saber and Archer couldn't help but feel only pity for her (and even then, along with Caster, would always end up ignoring her anyway for the most part), and Sakura goes so far to admit that she's practically given up trying to surpass Rin in terms of popularity. Girl just can't catch a break.

--->'''Gilgamesh:''' [[spoiler: Has human life finally become this easy? That one may simply disappear, cared for by no one, criticized by no one, hated by no one — like a living ghost. Kishinami. Did you sacrifice your command spells to me that you could show me such unsightly things? If that is the case, leave that would-be ghost in there to die. Rethink that desire to save what no one cares for.]]

* DarkMessiah: She saw that the only way for the world to gain salvation is through her teaching, which is basically [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tachikawa-ryu having the humanity goes into a wild orgies of sex to ascend spiritually]]. As the world itself is so full of suffering, her real-life counterpart is hailed as the ‘Last Prophet’ for bringing salvation through hedonism and caused thousands of suicides. [[spoiler: She becomes Angra Mainyu, but instead of evil, she becomes an embodiment of lust by being an idol of lust and an object of humanity's lewd desire.]]

* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: [[spoiler: Her class "Heaven's Hole" and her Noble Phantasm.]]

* LackOfEmpathy: [[spoiler: Considers herself the only person to be truly human.]]

* TooKinkyToTorture: Her desire to save the world through her sect is so incomprehensibly self-torturing, everyone’s wondering just how much she likes being used. [[spoiler: In the final battle, she keeps saying “More!” when a Servant gets a good hit on her.]]

* AIIsACrapshoot: [[spoiler: Subverted, as B.B. only really went crazy due to being hacked by Kiara Sesshouin.]]

* AntiVillain: She has almost no malice to her enemies, she’s never actively attacking your party [[spoiler: until Moon Cell overrides her, and her goal is to ensure you survive through the entire Grail War alive]].

* CompositeCharacter: [[spoiler: She absorbed the forgotten primordial Goddess from which all Goddesses originate, along with the Goddesses that came from her such as Tiamat, Gaia, Athena, Ishtar, Astarte, etc.]]
* CreepyMonotone: If she's sufficiently ticked off (notably refusing to sever your contract with Gilgamesh, or even if you decide to), she lapses into this. [[spoiler: When the Moon Cell wins in its and BB’s struggle of power over the Moon Cell’s control, it starts up full time.]]

* FinalBoss: [[spoiler: Of the normal Far Side story mode.]]

* HumanityOnTrial: [[spoiler: After the Moon Cell starts taking control of her, it uses her to begin a vote by all things that have ever existed on earth on whether humanity should be wiped out or not. Most lifeforms voted for humanity's extinction including humanity itself. Most plants were firmly on humanity's side and voted for their survival.]]

* LoveMakesYouEvil: She's Sakura's discarded affection for Hakuno, and despite her pleasant overall attitude and demeanor she is not a very nice person.[[spoiler: ZigZagged in the final fight where she muses that she did all this to protect someone, yet can't remember who as a result of the Moon Cell interfering. Subverted entirely in that it was Kiara hacking her that made her turn out this way, which is only revealed on the CCC route.]]

* OutOfCharacterMoment: Suffers a few through the storyline when her charming, GenkiGirl mask slips to become something more mechanical. [[spoiler: It's because she cannot handle manipulating the entire Moon Cell, and it's starting to consume her.]]

* PhysicalGod: Within the Moon Cell, she can do almost anything imaginable. Travel through time, decide the future, strip away all of your powers, manipulate your senses, set the rules of the Grail War to whatever she wants, resurrect the dead, and much more. Even after you go through extensive preparations in order to stand up to her, she can still render herself invincible temporarily and [[OneHitKill instantly defeat you]] [[NonStandardGameOver with her Noble Phantasm.]]

* ConspicuouslySelectivePerception: Her skills, "Quality as a Target of Abuse" and "Barrier Against Cognizance", essentially take this trope up to its logical extreme. Quality as a Target of Abuse is basically letting her gathering aggro from surrounding enemies and turning herself into giant punching bag, while Barrier Against Cognizance turns the trope into ''herself'', making her unable to perceive her own strange body proportion and making her capable of executing her SuperStrength skill. She ''weaponizes'' NotEvilJustMisunderstood by [[UpToEleven turning her own perceptions into those of abuse victims]]! [[PlayingTheVictimCard She would then use those abuses as a "justification" for lashing out]], never to realize that she was made that way.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Everyone near her has an inexpiable urge to be abusive to her, and her Punishment Time is disturbingly played like a sexual assault.

* FemmeFatalons: [[UpToEleven To a ridiculous extent]], as her hands end in massive claws, that are closer to ten {{BFS}} than "fingers".
* FloralThemeNaming: She is named after Passion flower.

* IJustWantToBeNormal: Her entire character arc is that she's under a delusion, brought by her id_skills, that she's a normal girl who just happens to get pushed around by everyone. She tries to do delicate tasks even though her fingers are literal swords, she tries to be affectionate but her very personality is twisted by nature and she would harm her target of affection without fail, her DrawAggro skill makes everyone around her unable to resist the urge to abuse her and her other skill makes her unaware that [[DoesNotKnowHerOwnStrength she's causing all of these]]. Her inability to realize that she's not normal makes her lashes out for the wrong reason, and she ends up getting some senses beaten into her.

* KickTheDog: Because of her skill always gathering aggro and inciting people around her to be abusive to her, she always becomes a victim of this. Robin Hood physically and verbally abuses her (something that he horrifiedly realizes is not his character), Alice and Nursery Rhyme bully her to the point of KidsAreCruel, and even the protagonist has the chance to do her in; if the protagonist goes on to her Punishment Time, they dismiss her ability to love and denounce her as an irredeemable monster - leaving Passionlip a sobbing, self-hating wreak as she dies.

* StalkerWithACrush: [[spoiler: She had been following the protagonists and their servant for some time before being fought as a boss.]]

* SuperStrength: With those arms it was obvious (she has a A+ rank in Strength) but it goes further than that: she also has an EX-ranked skill that allows her to crush ''anything'' that can fit into her oversized hands into a small five-inch-wide cube. And it doesn't even ''need'' to be so in reality; if it can fit her claws via FingerFraming, then she perceives it as "crushable". The game acknowledges the absurdity of this, even classifying it as a "cheat" skill. Her strength is also so absurd that merely attempting to ''touch'' her hands will cause your arms to ''explode'' if you're anything less than a Servant.
* VictoriasSecretCompartment: Her boobs are ''literal'' trash bins! Her main duty is to crush trash data and store it away in the valley of her breasts, even things that exceed the capacity of her memory. [[GagBoobs They're just that huge]].
* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Her Barrier Against Cognizance is so bad, she thinks the reason that everyone rejects her is because she's an Alter Ego and BB's clone, instead of her monstrous appearance. Her entire Punishment Time is basically telling her that yes, she's a monster and yes, it doesn't matter; a girl is still a girl.
* {{Yandere}}: [[spoiler: For the Protagonist. Her composites goddesses are those who also screwed by love, to boot.]]

* TheAssimilator: [[spoiler: Her ranked A skill Melt Virus allows her to absorb anyone she injects it into after they have been liquefied. It allows her to absorb EXP, Skills, Capacity, and more this way.]]

* FastballSpecial: Her combination attack with Passionlip, Virgin Razor Palladion, unseen in CCC but used against Gawain and Karna in ''Fox Tail'', has Passionlip throwing her legs first to the enemy.
* FloralThemeNaming: She is named after Lily flower, origin of Lilith's name.
** This is also true for the Meltryllis spelling, as it derives from amaryllis.

* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Deconstructed, because the nature of her love is so warped that no one would be happy with it. [[spoiler:Played straight in CCC Route, which she lets the protagonist go as she knows that just be able to love is enough for her.]]

* IShallTauntYou: When using [[DeflectorShields Farewell Albrecht]];

--> '''[=Meltryllis=]''': [[labelnote:Beware, wall of texts here.]]That’s right, precisely. Dolls are nice. However much I love them, they don’t complain, they never show displeasure, they never change. While I consider human consumer culture foolish, I am grateful that it has polished figurine culture. [[[LampshadeHanging She begins talking much faster than her usual languid pace.]]] It began with the statue of Venus, I think. In Greece. That’s what I imagine. And from there it spread through countries, across oceans, across time…When it reached the hands of Japanese craftsmen, a big bang rivaling the birth of the universe, no, a paradigm shift occurred. It’s come out already, so I’ll just say it. I like dolls. I love them. From life-sized to miniatures, I appreciate them all equally! But certainly scale models in particular draw my interest. Being able to run you tongue over them and admire them from 360 degrees gives such a feeling of control, of ownership, it’s the best there is. All there can be for those who can’t appreciate this hobby is total reeducation. After they’re melted, I’ll make them into base materials. Ah, but American action figures are no good. Too much muscle. When it comes to industrial arts, the delicacy of the Japanese is second to none. My dream is to gather lost model-makers and have them build my own toy story kingdom — Ah, of course I’ll make the craftsmen into dolls as well. Figurine craftsmen polishing their arms day after day, pursuing the ultimate mold…good smiles! Is there any other image so lovely? No, there can’t be. There isn’t, and so I will build it![[/labelnote]]

* PetitePride: She comments that BB and Passionlip have too ''excessive meat''.

* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Her name is ''supposed'' to be "Meltryllis", in order to match the floral naming of the other Alter Egos, including the ones in secondary materials; she is named after the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amaryllis amaryllis]] and as of ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'', all game-related material and international releases are consistent in spelling her name this way. But no, your eyes do not deceive you: her name is indeed spelled "Meltlilith" in ''CCC'' itself, as shipped. This is because "ryllis" and "lilith" are both spelled リリス in katakana, and evidently the graphic design team somehow wasn't informed of the intended anglo-romantic spelling. As a result, her name is consistently spelled "Meltlilith" in-game and also in promo material leading up to ''CCC'''s release, and the error wasn't caught in time to correct it before the game went to print.
* StatusBuffDispel: [[spoiler:Sarasvati Meltout’s effect of ‘destroying the form of anything that flows’ translated as [[PowerParasite stealing enemies’ status buff and giving it to herself]].]]

* {{Stripperiffic}}: Her top half is fully covered but the same thing cannot be said for the bottom part.

* {{Yandere}}: [[spoiler: For the Protagonist. If Archer is the Female Protagonist's servant, she is yandere for him.]]

* ArtificialHuman: [[spoiler:Created from the Counter Force by the Gods to control humanity]]

* BlindedByTheLight: When confronted by Red Lancer, Gilgamesh deals with her by [[spoiler:stripping naked. [[MaleFrontalNudity His junk is represented by a shining golden light]].]]
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Most characters don't really grasp Gilgamesh's morals. For example, he doesn't consider red Lancer to be a traitor to her Master because they were never pursuing the same goals to begin with, so when a better opportunity came up for her, betrayal was natural.

* ItMakesSenseInContext: Most of his conversations only make sense if you have prior knowledge of things in-universe. Like his TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to Gawain flies over everyone’s heads because they don’t know who Arthur actually is and calling Julius [[spoiler:’a ghost’ before the reveal that this Julius was taken after the fight in the final week, from which he had lost his round and only remaining as a cyber ghost.]]

* LonelyAtTheTop: [[spoiler: After he became a adult and came to understand the world and the future in ways [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer neither Gods nor Humans could understand]]. Leading to him becoming the arrogant Jerkass Tyrant until he met Enkidu.]]

* MundaneUtility: He has a Poison tasting Noble Phantasm stored away.

* NotSoDifferent: To the [[spoiler: Moon Cell, which was also created to observe humanity.]]

* OnlyFriend: Enkidu as it has always been. [[spoiler: He is still able to grow close to the Protagonist over time.]]
* PetTheDog: Has a few of these after [[spoiler:escaping from the seal BB placed on him and seeing Hakuno so determined to save him]]. He starts by saying he'd give Hakuno candy as a commemoration for their good work and overall, starts to treat Hakuno nicer [[{{Tsundere}}even as he denied being nice to Hakuno]]. And here's what he had to say for [[spoiler: Alice and Nursery Rhyme later]].

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Gives one to Gawain over his loyalty to his king, right in front of the Student Council. He basically calls out Gawain for not catching Arthur’s personal dilemma over her ‘perfect king’ image and further burdening her with that adoration and expectation. Gawain unintentionally proves him right by not listening to his words and keeping his position as a mindless, loyal knight only answering to his king’s whim, though at that moment everyone agrees with Gawain as they’re ignorant of what he means.

* SemiDivine: 2/3rds Divine (the ancient Mesopotamians didn't really understand how genetics work).

* TheStarscream: Gilgamesh makes no secret of the fact that, as his first action is to steal his own Command Seals from you, he could kill you at any time if he feels the whim. The dialogue choices you make determine whether he follows up on this threat or eventually becomes a SarcasticDevotee.

* TurnedAgainstTheirMasters: [[spoiler: Although created by the Gods to keep them relevant and control humanity, he ends up being the one who deals the fatal blow that ends their reign.]]

* UsedToBeASweetKid: [[spoiler: Back when he was a young boy. Loved by the people, the Gods, and ruled them fairly.]]

* ArmorOfInvincibility: His kavacha (armor) and kundala (earring) are so powerful that not even [[StoryBreakerPower B.B]] can do as much as put a scratch on them. [[spoiler: He gave the armor to Jinako without her knowledge or consent so that she could survive the reset]].

* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: Due to their divine nature, Gilgamesh isn't actually sure if he has his armor and spear in the Gate of Babylon (or rather, he cannot identify their originals because they are divine items "no one has laid eyes upon"), so he asks Karna to give him either his armor, javelin or his head. Karna replies that since he´s given the armor to Jinako and has to use the javelin to fight him, he can have his rotten head if he wins.

* TheDreaded: When people find out his identity, they are guaranteed to be cowed by his fame. It's showing the most when he does a BigDamnHero to the Student Council as Gawain is ganged up by Meltryllis and Passionlip in ''Fox Tail'' - the Student Council is the one who crapped their pants despite Karna being on their side.
* EyeBeams: Brahmastra, a projectile Noble Phantasm that changes its shape depends on his class. As a Lancer, it manifests as his signature DeathGlare given offensive power.[[note]]In his original ''Apocrypha'' design, Brahmastra was the spear that he used before Vasavi Shakti was materialized, but when the actual work rolled around his first spear was changed to a sealed form of Vasavi Shakti while Brahmastra became his EyeBeams just like in ''CCC.''[[/note]]
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:At the end of the game, he reveals that he had given his armour of invincibility to his Master without her knowledge earlier. This allows her to survive the "reset" of the system at the end of the Far Side scenario and safely exit the Moon Cell, which is why she does not show up in the Near Side scenario]].

* AntiVillain: Played with. During her third appearance she's built up as someone that might be sympathetic, but in the end she really isn't. No matter how innocent and cute she may be, she's still an unrepentant, narcissistic mass murderer. Whatever mental illnesses she may have had, whatever the effect her dragon blood may have had on her, she still chose to torture young girls to death just to stay young and beautiful.

* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Because of the combination of her upbringing and mental illness, she honestly doesn’t see her actions as wrong. [[spoiler:As a noble, peasants’ life that she tortured and whose blood she drained for her bath meant nothing as peasants were nothing more but cattle for her to slaughter]].

* BoxedCrook: [[spoiler:When the protagonist dives into the root of his/her Servants’ Origin, Elizabeth is given to them as their Servant to conquer the Servant’s Zero Model and gaining the Servant’s Origin in exchange of her freedom from her Ice Maze prison.]]

* DisappearsIntoLight: [[spoiler:Subverted; from her dialogue, it seems she believes she will return to the Imaginary Number Space after aiding the Origin Servant activation, Rin says she just goes back to statis in her Ice Maze prison. In short, she's not really gone like the Servant in general after they fulfill their purpose.]]

* LethalChef: Her appatizer alone is enough to give a literal BSOD.

* MoralEventHorizon: InUniverse, [[spoiler:during her final Punishment it's stated that she can never be saved or forgiven for what she's done, even if she didn't fully understand what she was doing at the time. At her deepest core, she knows this as well. It's played with, however, because this is the moment where she finally admits to herself that she was the one to blame for her own fate, meaning there's a possibility for her to change after that.]]
* NewJobAsThePlotDemands: Fought the most out of any character in the game yet keeps changing Masters. [[spoiler:She made pact with BB to be her personal PsychoForHire to defend her Labyrinth as long as she makes her immortal, namely keeps spitting her back out of the imaginary number space every time she dies.]]

* PantyShot: When she attacks. And there's that gratuitous shot of her panties in her Noble Phantasm.

* TortureTechnician: Has a Torturing Method skill ranked A. [[spoiler:We see the first hand that she has both Rin and Rani to gather [=NPCs=] and Masters alike for her blood bath in their respective floors, which also incite the suspicion that Rin and Rani are [[NotHimself Not Themselves]]]].

* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: She's claustrophobic because she died in house arrest. Her wardens became so annoyed at her wailing, they sealed off her windows and only left a small slit to push her food in. [[spoiler:When the protagonist gains her SG and the MissionControl traps her inside a cage of [=IceWall=], she loses any shred of her arrogance and screams for mercy the entire time.]]

His Noble Phantasm is Märchen Meines Lebens: A Story Just For You, which allows Caster to transform someone, body and soul, [[OneWingedAngel into their "ideal self"]]. However, the target must incite the lust of a writer within Caster for the Noble Phantasm to work, and his Author's Spirit typically doesn't allow someone to reach their true "ideal self" if their narrative/CharacterDevelopment is incomplete.

* BeleagueredAssistant: Despite his UndyingLoyalty, Caster does not like how Kiara acts and insults her every chance he gets. [[spoiler:He even warns the protagonist when she's going to use her Noble Phantasm during the boss fight.]]

* {{Deconstruction}}: It seems to his hobby. If asked about Lancer [[spoiler:Elizabeth]], he calls her 'unsightly' because if she thinks that other people are nothing but pigs, then she's a foolish woman for being narcissist in front of a bunch of 'pigs'. He isn't exempt from his own sharp tongue, calling himself a useless Servant for having all his perimeters E and prone of SelfDeprecation when he looks back to the time when he was alive.
* TheDragon: [[spoiler:to Kiara, the true Mastermind of CCC]]
* GracefulLoser: [[spoiler: Lets everyone escape and doesn't bother to fight them after they defeat Kiara, happy with how the story had played out.]]

* LethalJokeCharacter: Hans should, by all means, be absolutely horrible as a servant- except for his Noble Phantasm, which (if used correctly) can be one of the strongest Noble Phantasms in the franchise. [[spoiler: Kiara uses it to become a ''demi-god'', and that's even with Hans holding back!]]
* LoveHurts: Had his heart broken throughout his life, [[spoiler: yet he still believes in love.]]

* MyMasterRightOrWrong: [[spoiler: His reason for following Kiara is that a servant follows their master, so he will follow her to hell itself. However, this is only out of duty and he has no love for Kiara herself.]]

* RealityWarper: [[spoiler: His Noble Phantasm Märchen Meines Lebens, (A Story Just For You) can be used to make one into their ideal self, but they must also incite lust in Andersen. His lust as an author for CharacterDevelopment within the story, to be precise. The reason why Kiara isn't her "ideal self" in her boss fight is because she didn't go through said development, thus his buffs only go far. Even ''then'' they were enough to raise Kiara to the level of an Earth Goddess, with the ability to make herself the size of a planet!]]
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: [[spoiler: Gives one to Kiara after she loses, telling her that her inability to realize her own flaws and that she should know she stood no chance against the Protagonist is the reason for her defeat.]]
* TheUnfought: [[spoiler: Never fights in battles directly. Instead it's his master that is fought.]]
* VocalDissonance: Despite his young appearance, he has a voice of an older gentleman. This represents [[spoiler: his childish mind capable of the fairy tales he wrote, but that he was still an adult]].

* HeelFaceDoorSlam: [[spoiler: She returns to save Hakuno from Kazuradrop, but ultimately ends up falling victim to Trash and Crash at the other's hands, having consumed Passionlip to get it.]]

* TokenMiniMoe: [[spoiler: Her inner self looks as young if not younger than Kazuradrop.]]

A glass wearing girl whose face resembles that of BB.

Her true nature is that of an "Alter Ego", a "High Servant" created by BB after she accessed the records of the Moon Cell. She is a composite of three Servants- Medusa, Apsara, and Melusine-.

* {{Expy}}: Of Rider Medusa. In fact Rider is one of the servants used to create her, and she appears near identical to her before revealing her true form.
* FloralThemeNaming: She is named after Violet flower.
* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:After losing to Caster and being told off for just blindly following orders, she helps Gawain and Leo with Shinji in protecting Hakuno from Kazuradrop.]]

* MythologyGag: Her teaming up with Shinji is one to VisualNovel/FateStayNight where one of her base servants was his servant. Her tendency to mock him is a reference that Medusa really disliked Shinji.

* StrongButUnskilled: As one of the Sakura Five, she's much stronger than any regular servant but she's lacking fighting experience and mix that with her straightforward personality, Caster can easily predict her actions.
* TimeStandsStill: Her id_ese skill Crack Ice freezes time in the area she sees.
* WhipItGood: She transforms her arms into a whip with a metal blade at the end.

* BigBad: [[spoiler:Turns out she's the real main villain of the Fox Tail manga who stole most of B.B.'s power.]]
* {{Expy}}: Of young Sakura. [[spoiler:But once we meet her, her personality is closer to Dark Sakura and she's shown similar powers.]]
* FanDisservice: While there is really nothing wrong with Kazuradrop's appearance or abilities, her id_eses skill names "Hatred of the Breathen" and "Insect Eater" are this when you remember about [[spoiler:the original Sakura's experience with worms and resentment toward Rin]].
* FloralThemeNaming: She is [[spoiler: seemingly]] named after the Arrowroot flower (Kazura=Arrowroot). [[spoiler: Except not. In actuality, she's named for ''utsubo-kazura'', IE ''pitcher plant.'']]
* {{Foreshadowing}}: [[spoiler: As "BB", she demonstrates a private field called the "Bug Space" wherein her captives are aptly reduced in size and virtually helpless. This at first seems like the typical BB sadism, but ends up having been a landslide hint to who she really was.]]
* IrrationalHatred: [[spoiler: She LOATHES Hakuno because due to him, Sakura became flawed which lead to the creation of BB and the Alter Egos. While she is happy to be alive, she's not at all happy to be born because of an error.]]
* JustEatHim: [[spoiler: "Insect Eater", a skill devised for cleansing system bugs, ends up being utilized instead as the ability to consume others, but only can be used to full effect on Sakura AIs ''specifically''.[[note]]She can only wholly integrate the being and skills of Sakura or those derived from her. Anyone else doesn't give her anything.[[/note]]]]
* MeaningfulName: She is, by origin, a virus-cleansing program, [[spoiler: named for the pitcher plant -- in other words, for bugs in the system to be "dropped" into and erased. Following her whiplash FaceHeelTurn, this is re-purposed for [[JustEatHim her entire new MO]].]]
* OmnicidalManiac: [[spoiler: Her goal is the extinction of humanity.]]
* ThePerfectionist: A big part of her personality is her desire to be perfect. [[spoiler: She hates how BB and the other Alter Egos are error prone due to their love of Hakuno and hates that she's an Alter Ego of those flawed AI.]]
* RightUnderTheirNoses: [[spoiler:She was pretending to be normal Sakura since the start of the manga.]]
* TheStarscream: [[spoiler: Betrays and absorbs 87% of BB's powers before the start of the manga.]]

* WalkingSpoiler: Virtually her entire existence in Fox Tail is a gamechanger, if all the above hadn't made it apparent.

* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Downplayed. [[spoiler:Kazuradrop did brainwash him but his general personality seems to be in tactic, only that he's more open to work with Kazuradrop.]]
* GrumpyBear: He is extremely cynical and refuses to work together with Hakuno, and does not tolerate his Saber's goofy antics. When the factions call a truce to go to a hot spring together, he refuses to talk to anyone. When Saber asks if he had fun, he says that's stupid, it's just a bath.

* SelfMadeOrphan: [[spoiler:He accidently murdered his parents when his attempt to use magecraft after getting the family crest backfired.]]
* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: In regards to Saber.
--> ''I don't remember becoming your boyfriend.''

* AffectionateNickname: She calls her master Kazu-kun, he doesn't like it at all.

* BoringButPractical: Shoutouren, which Saber admits isn't that flashy at all but the increase to her intelligence makes her a much more efficient and deadly fighter as Caster found out.
* TheDitz: She's quite the airhead with Caster saying her swordsmanship is more her flailing around than a martial art.
* DumbassNoMore: Her second Noble Phantasm, Shoutouren greatly increases her intelligence. She even states as a result of this Noble Phantasm, she can recite every digit of PI.
* {{Foil}}: To her rival Caster despite being incredibly similar, they oppose each other due to that similarity and have inverted myths. [[spoiler:Caster or Tamamo-no-Mae was the mortal avatar of the goddess, Amaterasu but became a demon that slaughtered hundreds of people as she was killed because they rejected her. Saber or Suzuka Gozen was a demon princess that travelled to Japan to conquer it but fell in love with the hero, Sakanoue no Tamuramaro and instead helped him kill evil demons and had a happy ending with Tamuramaro. Their main reasons for fighting is to protect their masters who just so happen to be on the opposite sides.]]
* FlyingWeapon: In battle, she wields one katana in her hands, and two others with her mind.

* LittleBitBeastly: She also has fox ears and a tail but unlike Caster they're not genuine.

* MyMasterRightOrWrong: Based on her myth and her current actions, Saber doesn't really have any set morals and only does things that will make her master/boyfriend happy or let her spend more time with them. Under the hero, Sakanoue no Tamuramaro, Suzuka was a heroic figure, [[spoiler:thus why she's siding with Kazuradrop despite seeing her brainwash Kazuhito as it lets her spend more time with him.]]
* NotSoDifferent: To Caster. Both are obsessed over their masters and have a strong obsession with love.
* OddFriendship: She and Rani became friends because they both don't wear underwear.
