Caules Forvedge
Voiced by: Yūsuke Kobayashi (Japanese), Tom Bauer (English)
One of El-Melloi II's students.
- All Men Are Perverts: He says he set up his computer for "searching and database management", but from what we can see of it in the anime, at least one of the monitors is covered in porn and girls in swimsuits.
- Big, Screwed-Up Family: He doesn't look like he came from one, but Episode 8 has him share to Gray how, because of her sister's decision to leave the Forvedges for a normal life, members of their clan considered (and even attempted) to kill him to force her to stay.
- Capture and Replicate: It is eventually revealed that something of the sort happened to him during the Rail Zeppelin arc, in that the Caules we were supposedly following all along wasn't in fact him, but Dr. Heartless posing as him. It's not until Reines manages to barge into Rail Zeppelin together with the real him that the deception is finally revealed.
- Point of Divergence: Due to the differences between the timeline of Fate/Apocrypha and Fate/stay night, the Yggdmillenia clan was never formed and Caules was made the head of the Forvedge family earlier due to his sister leaving to pursue a normal life.
- Hero of Another Story: Caules is one of the protagonists of Fate/Apocrypha, in which he was the master of Berserker of Black.
- Hormone-Addled Teenager: When Flat and Svin show up in his room to admire his computer it's plastered with pictures of girls in bikinis.
- The Medic: He can also use his electricity magecraft to heal wounds/injuries, as he tries to do for Waver after the latter got away from an assailant. This, however, leads to Waver figuring out that it's actually Heartless impersonating Caules, as it'd be impossible for the real Caules to be that good at it.
- Mission Control: Downplayed sort: among the students of Lord El-Melloi II, he's the one with the internet/data-savvy and a computer designed for such—which leads to him being tasked to corroborate news/data clues involved in his investigations.
- Mythology Gag: Has a poster in his room featuring a masked Frankenstein and Charles Babbage.
- One of his electrical spells is named Crafted Tree, a reference to Frankenstein's Noble Phantasm, Blasted Tree. It's even the same shade of yellow-green.
- Only Sane Man: Caules is mostly just a regular, somewhat lazy kid who somehow got dragged into "a class full of students dangerous in both talent and temperament" despite his protests. It is also implied this is the very reason Waver chose to bring him along during the Rail Zeppelin case (especially considering the grim stakes involved will just mean trouble for immature students like Flat and Svin).
- Shock and Awe: Is most skilled in electricity magecraft, a Mythology Gag toward his Servant in another timeline having electrical powers.
-
Throw It In!: His talent in electricity magecraft. While Apocrypha had said he wasn't really cut out for the spiritual evocation that his family specializes in, it didn't say where his real talent was. So for Caules's appearance here Ryohgo Narita - the author of Fate/strange Fake - suggested electricity as a nod to Frankenstein. - You Are in Command Now: Due to his sister abdicating her position of clan head early on in this timeline Caules now has to take over as head himself.
Hishiri Adashino
Voiced by: Yuko Minaguchi (Japanese), Julia McIlvaine (English)
Live actor: Kazuho Sō
A member of the Clock Tower's Policies Department, essentially a mage version of law enforcement. Tasked with maintaining order within mage society.
- Alike and Antithetical Adversaries: In many ways, she represents traditional magecraft's take on Truth that a magus simply makes reality happen the way they want. This is seen in her investigation style; put together the obvious evidence and motif and force the answer through. She recognizes that Waver is her ideological opposite on this score.
- Animal Motifs: She's like a snake. She also uses a Mystic Code that looks like a snake.
- Boring, but Practical: Her Mystic Eyes have the ability to find lost items, which isn't very flashy compared to say Rider's Petrification or Shiki's Death Perception, but they get the job done and are very beneficial for her line of work.
- Connected All Along: It is eventually confirmed that Doctor Heartless is her brother, both adopted by the Norwich family, the original founders of the department of Modern Magecraft. It is later revealed in the final volume that they are in fact half-siblings. Curiously, however, her conflict with him has nothing to do with her personally, and purely incidental to her job as a Policies enforcer.
- Dragon Lady: To a T. It's implied she deliberately plays this up for intimidation, as Western mages tend to be quite ignorant about Eastern traditions and easily fall into Yellow Peril anxieties.
- Even the Girls Want Her: Gray's internal commentary acknowledges her as very beautiful.How many men would gladly offer up their souls just for that smile, I wondered. Her mysterious, oriental appearance would no doubt stir up interest from people of both genders.
- Faking the Dead: During the Adra Castle case, using a corpse that looked like her... at least after she'd gouged out the eyes. The anime renders this a Late-Arrival Spoiler.
- Hime Cut: With a kimono to match.
- Inspector Javert: She's the equivalent of this to Waver's Sherlock Holmes, although Word of God compares her to Irene Adler (sans the Dating Catwoman aspects she is often Flanderized into).
- Kimono Is Traditional: Subverted; though she may look the part, she doesn't abide by Japanese expectations or mage expectations. Indeed, the Policies Department is inherently heretical by mage standards, since they ignore the magus instinct to seek the Root, but rather focus on creating and maintaining stability in the Clock Tower.
- Magical Eye: She has Mystic Eyes with the power to find lost things. This helps her greatly in locating Trish's head.
- Motive = Conclusive Evidence: Basically the end-all be-all of how she solves crimes. It should be noted that this is how Waver also parses through mysteries, but he's much more thorough while Adashino latches on to what appears to be the most immediate and mundane possibilities at hand.
- Must Make Amends: When proven wrong, she'll admit her mistakes and do what she can to make up for it.
- Red Herring: Adashino's antagonistic reputation and unscrupulous character makes it out to the audience that either she (or her acting on behalf of Policies) is the mastermind for all the mishaps experienced during the Rail Zeppelin auction. It doesn't help that her snake magecraft brings up parallels with the villain Faker's worship of the Greek god Dionysus, who was associated with snakes. She is really not. It is later revealed that she, in concert with Waver, explicitly played it up to lure Dr. Heartless to finally reveal himself.
- Secret Police: The Policies Department is essentially mage society's answer to the KGB, with a reputation to match.
- Worthy Opponent: Described as the Irene Adler to Waver's Sherlock, although it's also made explicit that the Promoted to Love Interest aspect of her that frequently shows up in adaptations is not present here.
Luviagelita Edelfelt
Voiced by: Shizuka Itō (Japanese), Lauren Landa (English)
Live actor: Nami Tamaki
The young head of the Edelfelt family, who crosses paths with Waver and Gray in the Castle of Separation case, leading her to become a student in Waver's Modern Magecraft class.
- Adaptational Comic Relief: Inverted. She usually plays comic relief as Rin's rival, but Case Files turns her into a more Rounded Character by showcasing her serious and even dangerous side to portray just how dysfunctional mage society can be.
- Adaptational Dye-Job: Her hair and eyes are a paler yellow color in the anime in contrast to the more reddish hues she sports in other appearances such as the Unlimited Blade Works anime or unlimited codes.
- Ascended Extra: She only appears for the introductory case and the final arc in the books. In the anime, she takes a much more prominent supporting role as an acquaintance of the El-Mellois and she does some investigative work for Reines during the Rail Zeppelin arc.
- Curtains Match the Window: Golden hair and eyes.
- Dishing Out Dirt: Waver identifies her elemental affinity as Earth-based and thus her strongest attribute.
- Embarrassing Nickname: The Edelfelt family are notoriously known as "hyenas" for their viciousness and utter lack of scruples. Luvia would much rather be known as a "hunter".
- Fiction 500: Her reaction to being granted ownership of an upscale department store is to change the interior decorations to match her aesthetics.
- Kicking Ass in All Her Finery: An elegant aristocrat with no compunction about piledriving her enemies into the ground regardless of what she's wearing.
- Ms. Fanservice: Is seen lounging naked in a bathtub for one episode.
- Noblewoman's Laugh: Averted; Luvia here doesn't indulge in the laughter she's known for elsewhere in the Fate series. Fan speculation is that being around Rin brings it out of her.|
- Not So Above It All: As is typical for her. A line from Reines about how the bounded field in Luvia's department store "isn't one of your pranks" evokes a response from Luvia of "I'll toss that line back at you!", suggesting Luvia and Reines have pranked each other often in the past.
- Ojou: She's head of the Edelfelt family, is possessed of significant wealth and prestige, and conducts herself accordingly.
- Polar Opposite Twins: She frequently makes allusions to her twin sister and it's implied they are a case of this. The material book reveals that Luvia is a popular extrovert who loves to get up in everyone's business with her travels while her sister is a shy introvert who is content to stay in Finland where she has a Perfectly Arranged Marriage set up. This even extends to their elemental alignment as her sister's alignment is Fire in contrast to Luvia's Earth alignment.
- Professional Wrestling: A fan and a practitioner, easily wrestling automatons to the ground thanks to her mastery of "Lancashire-style combat", which earns her the titles "Hunting Dog of the Ring" and "Forklift Lady".
- Regal Ringlets: Has her hair done up in large curls.
- Rich Bitch:
- Not above murder and assassination of people she doesn't like, such as the time she hired Flueger to kill Waver at the Castle of Adra since she saw him as a threat to her goals. Although she was also so impressed by him she later pushed for him to become her tutor.
- Her appearance in the sequel series The Adventures of Lord El-Melloi II includes her planning on using the time that Rin is away from London to steal Shirou away from her.
- Smitten Teenage Girl: For all that she isn't Adaptational Comic Relief in this series, when Reines asks her about Shirou in The Adventures of Lord El-Melloi II, Luvia jumps headlong into this trope.Reines' Narration: With an expression that could only be described as that of a dreaming damsel, [Luvia] laced her delicate fingers together in front of her chest. Her beauty added to this feeling, making it seem like she came from some humorous fairy tale.
- Supernatural Gold Eyes: Indicating, among other things, her magic, her status and wealth, and her family's predatory associations.
- Wrestler in All of Us: One thing she very much does have in common with her other portrayals, combining her wrestling skills with her magic to take down enemies.
Yvette L. Lehrman
Voiced by: Miho Okasaki (Japanese), Sarah Anne Williams (English)
A Clock Tower student who belongs to both Waver's Modern Magecraft class and the Mineralogy department.
- Abhorrent Admirer: Waver finds her constant attempts to come onto him more irritating than anything else, telling her to jump out a window at one point.
- Chuunibyou: Dresses to stand out, and brags about her "AWESOME DEMON EYE!" and how famous she supposedly is for being so cool and powerful.
- Cute Little Fangs: It fits her energetic, trouble-making, quirky personality. They're sometimes even visible when she has her mouth closed.
- Eyepatch of Power: She wears a star-shaped eye patch to cover her right eye.
- Eye Scream: In the novels she changes her Mystic Eyes by way of physically plucking them in and out of her eyesocket.
- Gem Tissue: Her family's magecraft cuts gemstones and turns them into Mystic Eyes. Her right eye socket is used to plug in these gemstone eyes, with one that lets her see human emotion, one that lets her see leylines, one that lets her cast runes to activate fire magic, etc.
- Girlish Pigtails: As part of her chuunibyou look.
- Hazy-Feel Turn: She was working with Dr. Heartless for most of the Rail Zeppelin arc as he promised her incredibly rare Mystic Eyes in exchange for her assistance. After Waver reveals this to his audience, she gives up and admits to everything. However, she won't give up her laser-focused aim at obtaining Mystic Eyes that led her to allying with Heartless in the first place.
- Living Lie Detector: Of sorts. If what she says is true, she can use her Mystic Eye of Viewing Emotions to see how someone is really feeling.
- Lovable Traitor: In Fate/strange Fake she is the only member of Waver's classroom who wasn't given access to Hippolyta's command seals because the feedback caused by betrayal would instantly kill Werner whose magic made it possible. But they still let her come along.
- The Mole: Straight-up admits that she's in Waver's classroom as a spy for the Neutral Faction of the Magus Association's political three-way. It's also revealed at the end of the Rail Zeppelin arc that she was secretly feeding Dr. Heartless info about Caules to help him.
- Playing with Fire: One of her Mystic Eyes can set fire to anything she aims it at. It's implied that it's less an inherent power of the eye, and more it casting Instant Runes that summon fire magic.
- Stalker with a Crush: She is, in her own words, the number one expert in breaking into Waver's bedroom.
- Teacher/Student Romance: She would like to have one with Waver, as she's one of the students besotted with him and wishes to eventually become his mistress, but her professor isn't going to reciprocate any time soon.
- Yaoi Fangirl: Mentions being into BL after assuming Waver and Caules are together in that way on the Rail Zeppelin.
Inorai Valueleta Atroholm
Voiced by: Miyuki Ichijou
Hailing from one of the Mage's Association's Three Great Families, she is Lord of the Creation department and one of the major leaders of the democratic faction.
- As Long as It Sounds Foreign: Good luck finding someone with anything resembling her name in real life. At the very least, her middle name and name of her clan appears to be a Punny Name referring to what she prioritizes over bloodline.
- Cool Old Lady: Unlike most magi, she's willing to use modern tech, including an iPod she uses to listen to rock music. Her reasoning, befitting her role as Lord of the Creation department, is that true art is whatever moves the hearts of the people of the present.
- Dishing Out Dirt: An expert at sand magic due to her triple affinities in Wind, Earth, and Water.
- Expository Pronoun: She uses the masculine pronoun "ore". In the scene where she (and her speech pattern) is first introduced, she's knocking back glasses of whiskey in a single gulp. A bit of a tough old broad.
- Inconsistent Spelling: She is ever so briefly mentioned in Grand Order's crossover event with Fate/Zero, in which the official translation of the game spells her name Valuayeta. The anime subtitles spell her name Valueleta, which (as with Reines as discussed above) started as a fan translation that grew popular and so got picked up by Aniplex's translators.
- Mentor Archetype: She was one of Touko's teachers at the Clock Tower, and Touko genuinely does respect Inorai as both a mage and person.
- The Mole: Although the search for them is abandoned, she's eventually revealed to have been the secret collaborator of Heartless in the Grand Roll.
- Red Baron: Known for the nickname of "the Amazon of the Clock Tower".
- She Is the King: Her title is Lord Valualeta, not Lady.
Melvin Weins
Voiced by: Daisuke Hirakawa (Japanese), Christian La Monte (English)
An old semi-friend of Waver's from the Clock Tower.
- Adaptational Attractiveness: A lot more benign-looking in the anime, whereas the novel illustrations tend to give him the Face of a White-Haired Prettyboy.
- Ambiguously Bi: After making his entrance on Rail Zeppelin, he fondly strokes Waver’s forehead as the latter sleeps. Although at one point in the anime, and more prominently the novels, he seems to have a bit of a thing for foreign women, so he might swing both ways.
- Badass Biker: Is a capable motorist, to the point that Waver trusts him enough to outrace evil spirits and drive themselves out of an underground mining facility.
- Big Bad Wannabe: He likens himself to being both Waver's primary sponsor and a major source of his miseries as the various plights the latter experiences during his adventures wouldn't have been possible without the proper funding. His complete lack of threat prevents him from living up to this in any way.
- Color Contrast: With Waver. Melvin's hair is silver, Waver's is dark. Melvin's eyes are purple, Waver's are green. Melvin has a pale complexion, Waver's is darker. Also, like Waver, he tends to wear scarves and ties
◊, but he wears a white scarf while Waver's are red or gold. - Delicate and Sickly: Suffers from an unspecified condition that causes him to vomit blood and hinders him from becoming a Mage. He also appears to have clinical albinism (as opposed to just being a more typical white haired anime boy), as evidenced from the lack of pigment even in his eyelashes, and is described as such in the light novels.
- Disappeared Dad: According to bonus material in the artbook, his father abandoned him because he's too weak to be a mage and only his mother stuck by him. Then his father came back when it turned out little Melvin was actually spectacularly talented as a Tuner of others' crests and circuits, although this taught Melvin some painful lessons about his value in the eyes of others.
- Disease Bleach: He and Waver are around the same age, and he's had silver hair for as long as they've known each other. However in contrast to characters like Gray and Olga Marie, it appears to be due to a more mundane cause such as illness or albinism as opposed to a sign of magical power, and in fact he's a rather poor magus for the most part.
- Dream-Crushing Handicap: Due to his weak constitution, he's "hindered from becoming a mage". This parallels Waver's lack of talent as a mage.
- Eccentric Millionaire: At one remove around the time of Zero; his mother's wealth let him offer money for an interesting story, so Waver got him to lend him the money he needed to get to Japan. He later lent Waver more money to buy the El-Melloi class because he felt they were friends.
- First-Name Basis: How he addresses Waver. He explains to Gray that he's continued doing this even after Waver became Lord El-Melloi II because it'd be lonely for Waver if no-one called him that when he eventually relinquishes his title.
- Foil:
- Like Waver, he is a Mage with a very specific niche that's based on enhancing the abilities of others. Unlike Waver, he has no complex about his lack of personal power and is almost too eager to live vicariously through those he sponsors through either his magecraft or his money. Furthering the parallels is the color contrast between the two and the fact that unlike Waver his magic circuits are said to be of decent quality, he's just too infirm to use them properly.
- Like Kotomine, one of Waver's previous enemies, he's a big Troll and depraved hedonist who enjoys the misery of others. But unlike Kotomine he doesn't deliberately perform cruel acts or take pleasure in inflicting suffering himself. Rather, he prefers to passively enable others for his own amusement.
- Handsome Lech: He babbles about getting laid more than enough (but the closest thing we see to him trying to put the moves on anyone is just a very sweet, earnest offer to be Waver's best friend, while clutching Waver's hands and blushing).
- Inconsistent Spelling: His surname is translated as "Weins" in the official anime translation as opposed to the fan translations of Waynes or Waynez.
- Interclass Friendship: With Waver.
- It Amused Me: In Melvin's case, it's not that he does things because they amuse him, but instead that he goes all out to watch amusing things. In his own words, he's a brute who takes pleasure in watching the corruption or fall from grace of others, and a brute has dignity in being what they are - if it seems fun, he must see it through to the end, no matter what it costs him, or become a coward.
- Magic Music: Uses his violin as part of his magecraft, temporarily enhancing others' Magic Circuits.
- Meal Ticket: Melvin is happy to loan Waver any sum of money without even the expectation of being paid back... as long as Waver's willing to be his "best friend," that is (a proposal he made while holding his hand and blushing).
- Momma's Boy: In the light novels, he mentions his "mummy" so many times within a few minutes of meeting Gray that she starts wondering if he has an Oedipus Complex. To be fair, he just escaped a helicopter crash, so it's kind of understandable he'd be whining about wanting his mommy to take care of him.
- Pretty Boy: One of the few guys who gets an almost-equal level of appearance-related gushing in Gray's narration as the girls get.
- Screw the Rules, I Have Money!: Rail Zeppelin is very secretive and you can really only get on it if they invite you. When he discovered Waver and his students were on it (and he wasn't told by Reines), Melvin, for some reason, managed to get himself invited in. Admittedly, he doesn't credit it to himself solely, but to his family's influence. He repeatedly uses this financial influence to get the auctioneers to delay as much as possible for Waver's preparations.
- Slasher Smile: Official artwork for the novel tends to feature him with a sinister expression despite his being on the side of the heroes.
- Wasted Beauty: Gray describes him as extremely good-looking, but everyone agrees he's a scumbag and generally annoying.
- White Hair, Black Heart: Subverted, as illustrators like to make him cut a very sinister image◊ as an albino, Gray is immediately suspicious of his intentions, and even he describes himself as a brute, among other Obviously Evil traits, but he remains a loyal friend and his actual actions are amoral at the very worst.
Kairi Sisigou
Voiced by: Kenji Nomura (Japanese), Patrick Seitz (English)
A mercenary and necromancer from Japan. He shows up at the Marsburry Workshop to pay his respects to Trevor Pelham Codrington, an old friend of his.
- Abnormal Ammo: He fires bullets made with human fingers and throws grenades made of human hearts packed with teeth.
- Bruiser with a Soft Center: A little bit. He seems to quickly warm up to Gray, and expresses concern for Waver when he realizes he and Waver have similar dead-loved-one issues. Plus, he pauses to get sentimental over a children's book of fairy stories.
- Canon Immigrant: Although he's an existing Nasuverse character, Kairi's role in this series is entirely anime-original, and he never appeared in the light novels.
- Casual Danger Dialogue: While holding off a pack of monstrous fae hounds, he calmly banters with the rest of the group... and asks Waver whom he should send his invoice to.
- Cool Shades: Ones that he never takes off, even indoors.
- Hell-Bent for Leather: He looks like he stepped out of a biker gang convention.
- Hero of Another Story: Like Caules, he originates from Fate/Apocrypha and was one of its protagonists.
- Hunk: Burly, bearded, and manly.
- Inconsistent Spelling: In the official anime translation, his family name is transliterated as it would usually be, "Shishigou", rather than "Sisigou", as it was transliterated for Fate/Apocrypha.
- Mage Marksman: He's a magus whose primary weapon is a shotgun packed with human fingers.
- Magitek: His shotgun is treated with several rituals in order to use his magecraft.
- Necromancer: A skilled and famous one who appropriates human corpses to use as ammunition in battle. He also participates in the ritual that gets to the bottom of the incident at the workshop.
- Only in It for the Money: Well, he is a Bounty Hunter. But when Waver gets visibly alarmed at being asked for money he doesn't have, Sisigou asks for just one cigar as payment. This might also have to do with a theory he voices in Fate/Apocrypha:You can trust someone who works for money, so long as you have money. But when you work for free, people get scared… what if he comes back for what he’s owed?
- Outliving One's Offspring: His (adopted) daughter. He only briefly alludes to her here while talking to Gray about fairy tales, but in Fate/Apocrypha where Kairi is a main character, she's the core of his motivation.
- Point of Divergence: As a result of the differences between Fate/Apocrypha and Fate/stay night, he's still doing freelance mercenary work in this series, as he wasn't chosen as one of the Association's representatives for the Great Holy Grail War.
- Sunglasses at Night: Always wears them, even when he's in a dark catacomb, wearing a light clipped to his sweater so he can see because it's so dark. The sunglasses stay on anyway, because he always wears them.
Olga Marie Arsimilat Animusphere
Voiced by: Madoka Yonezawa (Japanese), Kira Buckland (English)
Daughter of Marisbury Animusphere, the Clock Tower's Lord of Astromancy, who meets Waver while serving as her father's agent on the Rail Zeppelin.
- Age Lift: She is much younger compared to her F/GO counterpart due to the 12-year difference in the timeframe.
- Alternate Self: As revealed by Sima Yi's interlude in Fate/Grand Order, she is this for the Olga depicted in the game due to Marisbury not taking a part in a Grail War as mentioned below.
- As Long as It Sounds Foreign: Olgamarie or Olga Marie are both fairly normal if slightly archaic Scandinavian names, but her last names are really out there.
- Classy Cravat: A female example.
- Death from Above: She conjures a meteor shower to attack the Child of Einnashe at the end of Rail Zeppelin.
- Foreshadowing: In-franchise, the reveal of her meteor shower magecraft, Anima Animusphere (implied to be a family specialty) predates the later reveal of the more extensive powers of her father's Alternate Universe heir, Kirschtaria Wodime of Fate/Grand Order.
- Friendless Background: Admits she doesn't have any friends in the Special Episode.
- Green-Eyed Monster: She hates people who are recognized for their efforts, or who think they don't have to be recognized by others, spawned by her own need for recognition.
- Harmful to Minors: She stumbled upon her tutor's headless body, followed shortly after by her missing head, and she was 11 at the time.
- Hero of Another Story: Averted, unlike many of the other guest characters in the series. While Olga originates from Fate/Grand Order and was heavily advertised as a main character before its release, she dies right at the start of the story. Though she comes back years later in Lostbelt 5 as a villain in the form of the Alien God/Beast VII.
- Idiot Hair: Has a large ahoge on top of her head.
- Inconsistent Spelling: Not her, but her father; the anime series's subtitles use the direct transliteration from Japanese, "Maris Billy", rather than the translation from the Grand Order game, "Marisbury". The English dub and the Special Episode subtitles go with Marisbury.
- Mystical White Hair: Has silvery hair and is a talented aristocratic magus.
- Ojou: As the daughter of one of the Lords of the Clock Tower.
- Parental Abandonment: According to Trisha, her father abandoned her after researching the Greater Grail. Her mother has never been mentioned.
- Point of Divergence: The differences between Fate/Grand Order and Fate/stay night mean her father's not taking part in the Grail War, so there's not going to be a Chaldea for her to join.
- Supernatural Gold Eyes: Being a mage.
- Tsundere: She's somewhat more reasonable than in Fate/Grand Order, but even so she makes a show of chewing out Gray for not being prepared when Waver gets injured, then offers her Panacea to help with Waver's healing, then waves off Gray's thanks by declaring Animusphere has discharged its debt to El-Melloi and that's the end of it. In episode 13, she is later seen sneaking into El-Melloi and Gray's hospital with a bouquet of flowers.
- Younger Than They Look: She's only 11 years old in this series but looks a couple of years older than that.
Trisha Fellows
Voiced by: Kumiko Higa
Olga Marie's tutor. Her family is part of an offshoot branch of the Animuspheres.- Bag of Holding: Because her elemental affinity is Hollow, Trisha can access Imaginary Number Space to hold objects in miniature pocket dimensions. The only other known mages with this affinity are Lev Lainur Flauros and Sakura Matou.
- Early-Bird Cameo: Trisha makes a brief cameo in episode 2 as the person who hired the El-Melloi faction to take on that episode's case.
- Off with Her Head!: How she was killed.
- Prim and Proper Bun: Wears her hair in a tight bun as befitting her role as Olga's tutor and caretaker.
- Seers: Her Mystic Eyes of Precognition let her see into the future.
Karabo Frampton
Voiced by: Eizou Tsuda (Japanese), John Eric Bentley (English)
A member of the Holy Church. He attended the Mystic Eyes auction aboard Rail Zeppelin not to buy Mystic Eyes, but to get rid of the ones he was born with.
- Badass Preacher: Another in a long line of battle-ready priests in the Nasuverse.
- Blessed with Suck: He wants to get rid of his Mystic Eyes and for very good reasons. His Mystic Eyes of Transience are at a level close to that of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, with all of the stengths and drawbacks that entails. As seen below in Seers, his eyes make him a very powerful fighter that he can even take on Servants. However, he suffers from severe Power Incontinence in that he can't control his past-seeing and it's eroding his own memories.
- Brainwashed and Crazy: He was used as a puppet by Dr. Heartless to carry out serial killings. And he's not happy about it when he finds out.
- Even Knight Templars Have Standards: When asked why he's helping Olga, he comments that while he does think Mages will go to hell, he's not going to kill a little girl while she's crying about the death of her best friend.
- Eye Scream: The removal of his Mystic Eyes involves the actual removal of his eyes while he's conscious.
- Fantastic Racism: The Church dislikes Mages, and Karabo is no exception.
- Gentle Giant: Downplayed in that he's not a pacifist or anything, but he's still a kind and respectful old man despite his gruff appearance.
- Heroic Sacrifice: Takes a blow for Gray to protect her from Faker which kills him.
- Noble Bigot: Despite his problems with Mages and belief that they will all suffer in Purgatory, he stands aside and allows Olga to mourn Trisha's death because that's a completely unrelated issue. And although he's a Christian he spends his final moments reassuring Gray to trust in the power of her lance as people would pray in the old days.
- Old Soldier: His wrinkles and white hair betray his age, but he's strong enough to hold off a Servant for a decent amount of time. He's an old soldier of the Holy Church after all.
- Punch-Clock Villain: As a priest of the Holy Church he's a mortal enemy to all Mages, yet during his time aboard Rail Zeppelin he's very polite and courteous, never antagonizes anyone, and willingly works with everyone in solving Trisha's murder, freeing the train from the 'Child Of Einnashe,' and fighting againt Faker to the point of a Heroic Sacrifice.
- Seers: Karabo's Mystic Eyes allow him to see the past, though they can't be controlled, such as when he unwillingly sees Gray's after brushing against her and then promptly apologizes for invading her privacy. He can also bring in "echoes" or "recordings" of things he has seen in the past into the present. For example, if he sees a knife cut through the air, then at a later time in that same location he can bring that cut into the present so it cuts through whatever is there.
- Spellblade: Following from Ciel and Kirei, he fights with Black Keys. Unlike how Kirei mostly used his as Wolverine Claws, Karabo's preferred method seems to be Throwing Your Sword Always Works like Ciel.
-
Viewer Name Confusion: Some fans romanized his first name as the wildly different (but not necessarily inaccurate) "Callebaut", but the official anime subtitles go with Karabo, which has the benefit of being a proper name in Africa.
Jean-Mario Supinerra
Voiced by: Kanehira Yamamoto (Japanese), John DeMita (English)
A magus who happens to be the star of a zombie-themed cooking show.- Demoted to Extra: He was actually one of the guests aboard the Rail Zeppelin in the novels, albeit not a major player in the case. The anime removed him from the train and reduced him to one scene on the set of his show, where he provided his information to Luvia and Kairi instead of to the main characters.
- Hunter of Monsters: Plays one on his cooking show, where he shoots at actors pretending to be zombies.
- Knowledge Broker: Is very media-savvy for a magus, and thus able to obtain all kinds of useful information others might not notice. For example, the identity of Dr. Heartless.
- Pest Controller: He specializes in using spider familiars.
- The Spymaster: Relies on a web of spider familiars to obtain his information.
- Supreme Chef: The fact that Luvia would compliment his cooking speaks volumes of his skills.
- Viewer Name Confusion: His last name is spelled by the official translations as "Supinerra" instead of "Spinella" or "Spinerra".
Bram Nuada-Re Sophia-Ri
Voiced by: Hirofumi Nojima (Japanese)
The brother of Sola-Ui from Fate/Zero and would-be brother-in-law of Kayneth. He is the successor to his father as Lord of Spiritual Evocation, and really doesn't like Waver.- Ascended Extra: He first appeared in one scene in Fate/Apocrypha (which was cut from the anime adaptaion).
Iskandar
Voiced by: Akio Ōtsuka (Japanese), Jamieson Price (English)
- Adaptational Early Appearance: He appears in the anime in Waver's dream at the end of the Rail Zeppelin adaptation, whereas in the novels he didn't appear until the very final volume.
- Deity of Human Origin: In the final volume Heartless succeeds in his plans to transform Iskandar into a Divine Spirit, which was possible because of legends of him being the son of Zeus.
- Divine Intervention: After becoming a Divine Spirit he grants Gray a miracle and revives Add, who had died not too long earlier.
- Divine Parentage: The legends that he was the son of Zeus are key to his role in the plot of this series.
- First-Name Basis: Inverted; he's usually referred to as Iskandar even by Waver, but Waver reverts to calling him Rider like he did in Zero when they're reunited.
- The Lost Lenore: Even if you don't read Waver and Iskandar's relationship as romantic, he still hits every other beat of this trope during Case Files.
- MacGuffin Super-Person: Heartless' plan revolves entirely around Iskandar. By transforming Iskandar into a Divine Spirit and then summoning him into the present day, Heartless wants to bring back the Age of Gods.
- Posthumous Character: Well okay, he technically died thousands of years ago, but more relevant to this series is his death as a Servant in Fate/Zero which still affects Waver ten years later.
Touko Aozaki
Voiced by: Takako Honda (Japanese), Dawn M. Bennett (English)
- Heel–Face Revolving Door: Whenever she appears you never know if she'll be on Waver's side or against him. Sometimes it's both in the same story arc.
- Noodle Incident: While her Sealing Designation had been revoked in Case Files, in the three years between then and Adventures she did something to get another one.
- Sealed in a Person-Shaped Can: Stores a massive tentacled monster within her body, much like the one she kept in a suitcase from The Garden of Sinners.
- World's Strongest Woman: She's one of the few magi to ever reach Grand rank in the Clock Tower's entire history, and terrifies everyone whenever she shows up. In the Special Episode she incapacitates Waver and all of his old classmates in a matter of seconds. In the Grand Roll arc she manages to impress Faker, a mage from the Age of Gods, though couldn't defeat her.
- You Don't Look Like You: It wouldn't be Touko if she didn't drastically change designs every time she appeared in a new series.
