Temporary allies of the Sanctuary
If his Archer self is him at the height of his power,
His Caster self, the height of his wisdom,
and His child self, the height of his innocence.
Then, surely, this is the Gilgamesh when the very existence of the word "Hero" engraved itself unto the world.
Essentially, "An Overwhelming Force that fights as an underdog".
The golden swords he wields are called Enki, The Sword of the End, and are capable of unleashing the great flood that engulfed the world in Sumerian legends, making them a Rank EX Anti-World Noble Phantasm.
- All Your Powers Combined : More all THE powers, thanks to its Gate of Babylon, which contains all that is created or known by humanity in the past, present and future.
- Blood Knight : He clearly is one, being thrilled at the idea of fighting.
- Born Winner : He was born transcending both humans and gods, with multiple gifts from the gods, charisma of the highest order, and a natural ability to harvest all of humanity's wealth and treasures.
- Challenge Seeker : He may be a Blood Knight, but he wants a minimum of quality in his opponents, and leaves the small fries to others.
- Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu? : Yes, two times. First, he defeated Volo's Giratina Hybrid form using Enki's release. And then, he defeated the Grendel Symbiote.
- Dual Wielding: Gilgamesh (Saber) primarily fights using Enki's dual blades.
- Gold-Colored Superiority: Once again, Gilgamesh. He defeated the most powerful beings in the RP thread he appeared in. For the entire time he appeared, only Volo in his merged form with Giratina managed to hurt him, and even then it was only a superficial facial injury. Then Gilgamesh (Saber) proceeded to defeat him anyhow.
- Heroes Prefer Swords: He is mankind's first Hero, at the very moment the word "Hero" was engraved in human history, and he is summoned in Saber class, wielding mainly two blades and using Gate of Babylon as support.
- Hyperspace Arsenal: Gate of Babylon, the warehouse that contains all that humanity has created or knows of in the past, present and future, in constant increase. The name of the key, which can only be manipulated by Gilgamesh, is Bab-ilu: Key of the King's Law.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: Just like his Archer/Caster version, they are due to his divine heritage, and like him, he is the most powerful Heroic Spirit in existence.
- Storm of Blades: Minimized because that's not his fighting style, but he fired up to five blades at once from his Gate of Babylon.
- Weapon of Mass Destruction: Enki, once released, is definitely that. Capable of materializing the waves of Surge of Utnapishtim - the original flood that engulfed the world in Sumerian legends - which will engulf an entire area in seconds, and the entire world in seven days.
A general of Northern Qi, from the Northern and Southern Dynasties era of China.
Well-known for his beauty and heroism, praised as the Qi’s God of Wars. Will generously share with his subordinates even if it was just one fruit rewarded to him. After his death he was honored with the Posthumous name as Lanling Wu’wang.
A mask is usually wore during battles because of that beauty, and there are two reasons why it is hidden. One was because soldiers were distracted by his beauty and were afraid that morale would fall. The other was because he was afraid of being humiliated by the enemy. Either way, his beauty resonated in everywhere beneath the heaven, and a number of legends were born.
Lanling Wang was not only beautiful, but was also incomparably brave,Leaving behind an anecdote of breaking through the surrounding enemies of ten thousand men with just five hundred cavalries, as well as successfully seizing the enemy’s city.(March of Lanling Wang was composed on that occasion.)
However, as the saying “Achievement so great that overshadowed the lord” goes,people distant him due to his overwhelming fame,rumors became widespread, so the Emperor awarded him with poisonous wine.“I’ve been fulfilling my loyalty to the lord, without disappointing the heaven, why did I deserved to drink this poison?”
And, Lanling Wang sighed those final words. After his death, the Northern Qi lost its military advantage, and went into destruction.
- Nice Guy: For his entire appearance in RP, he's been nothing but that. In fact, in his life, he was killed because he was that.
- Pretty Boy: To the point that it's literally the first thing that was noticed about him at his appearance."Izmia: Oooooh ! Cutie !"
- Abhorrent Admirer : Towards Altera. He also shows shades of it towards Storm, but only in the sense that he wants her in his army.
“A city dedicated to the gods must be both strong and beautiful. Please don’t say such phrases like ‘home is where you make it’ around me, okay?”
Introverted yet dynamic.An iron honor student who believes in her own righteousness and thoroughly abides by it.Justice is “urban prosperity” and “urban safety”; evil is “urban decay” and “urban danger.Those who live righteously are not especially praised or laughed at, but favored; those who live wickedly are not especially scolded or looked down upon, but executed.
"The value or the quality of the battle is irrelevant. Fight for whatever reason you please. Fighting and dying is all that matter.”
The one who professes such things, Tezcatlipoca, is one who she doesn’t really get along with. But as she respects Tezcatlipoca, she’s able to put up with it.
A calm and ruthless ‘cool beauty’.She carefully evaluates what she says, but her emotions at the time are clearly expressed at the end of her sentences.Expressing deep affection or attachment: “…Okay?”Expressing disappointment or pity: “…Okay?”Expressing hostility or anger: “…Okay?”Even if it seems to be similar at first, they have different meanings. Perhaps because she’s a rain god, her level of 'humidity’ is amazing.
A Servant in the form of a young woman who calls herself Tlaloc, the god of rain, Huitzilopochtli, the god of war, and refers to Tezcatlipoca as her brother.Their true identity is a spirit that resided within their city, a Servant that personified the city itself.Its name is Tenochtitlan.The capital of the Aztec Empire, which existed from the 14th to 16th centuries.Although Tenochtitlan was located on the water, it was the newest and largest urban model of its time, with 300,000 inhabitants and not a single peasant in the city, but only the king, priests, nobles, merchants, and slaves.
Hernán Cortés, the conquistador who would later destroy the Aztec empire, and his traveling party were said to have marveled when they visited Tenochtitlan, saying: “There is no city like this in the entire world”.Today, traces of it have been completely lost and it has become Mexico City, the capital of Mexico.
Being the soul of a city, she does like people.It’s unclear whether she loves humans as animals, or as elements that color her urban vibrancy (most likely both).She proposes to let the person he likes live in Tenochtitlan in a natural and apparently blunt manner.
“I looked into your home.I’m not particularly concerned, but if you continue to live in a place of that caliber, your quality of life will go down.You should move, okay?”
◆
She’s an 'ennui’-type 'cool beauty’, who sincerely and openly marches at her own pace. However, when her anger reaches a boiling point, she swears in a manner unbefitting of her 'honor student’ appearance. A lot.Inside, there’s the pent up feeling of being a 'destroyed city’.Due to the choices of Montezuma II, the Aztec empire was destroyed and Tenochtitlan disappeared from the earth.What she wants is not the revival of the Aztecs or the rebuilding of Tenochtitlan.Simply the chance to exist as a city once more.No matter how small her world may be, she has a strong desire to protect whatever city-bound life she can this time.
- Alternate Self: It is not the version of FGO, but an alternative version of the Sanctuary universe. She still has some vague knowledge of this version of her thanks to the Throne.
- The Bus Came Back: Several months after disappearing at the end of the RP which saw her appear, she is back at the Sanctuary.
In reality, here, it is Aphrodite/Venus herself disguised as Nero.
She is one of the many Earth Mothers that inherited the power of all creation from the Goddess of Çatalhöyük's Potnia Theron in 6,000 BC.
Aphrodite has two sides to her Divinity: Urania, the chaste and lofty Muse of astronomy, and Pandemos, the lusty and sensual goddess of the earth. Although she was the goddess of Love and Beauty, as the daughter of Zeus, she also acted as the god of Death sometimes. Her body was the Platonic ideal of the female form, and Scandinavia Peperoncino suspects that Ishtar, the Sumerian goddess of Venus, had some infulence on her divine manifestation. Aphrodite is one among the many mother goddesses whose power is derived from the Earth Mother.
Jason was supported by Aphrodite and upon realizing that the King of Colchis was unshakable, she decided to control Medea's mind to help Jason. Medea was made to blindly love Jason, which resulted in her betraying her father and her country for a foreigner she had never seen.
Aphrodite, along with Athena and Hera, the three most beautiful goddesses, chose Paris to act as a judge for the Golden Apple. Hera offered a throne and wealth, Athena granted victory and wisdom, and Aphrodite promised the most beautiful woman in Greece, Helen of Sparta. In turn, Paris chose Aphrodite.
Aphrodite is genuinely loving and caring towards humanity and emphasizes with them greatly, and she was horrified at the fact that he giving her blessings led to the destruction to the City of Troy.
- Exactly What It Says on the Tin : She is called Saber Venus, and is actually literally Aphrodite/Venus disguised as Saber (Nero).
- The Bus Came Back: Several months after disappearing at the end of the RP which saw her appear, she is back at the Sanctuary.
During the Trojan War, he performed great deeds as the most cunning and crafty member of the Achaeans. After the loss of Achilles in battle, Troy ended up falling to the Trojan Horse plan devised by Odysseus. Soon after the conquest of Troy had come to a conclusion, Odysseus set out on a journey to return to his beloved Penelope. However, on the way back he encountered many dangers…. The vicious one-eyed giant, Cyclopes. The curses of Poseidon. The witch Circe and the nymph Calypso’s temptations. The song of the Sirens. The strait of the monster, Scylla. The wrath of Helios. Nevertheless, in the end he overcame these difficulties and though having made many sacrifices, he made his way back to Penelope’s side.
“The weight and pain of taking just one step forward. —— I have come to known some of the hardships it entails.”
A man with an unyielding will.
A hero of the Trojan War and a member of the greatest family of adventurers in Greek mythology. A man that truly surpassed numerous adversities and went on uncountable adventures. The fact that his name was the origin for “The Odyssey” is not to be underestimated.
Though he may brag and boast of his adventures, Odysseus is a man who will prove his words.He says he’ll bring down Troy? He’ll bring it down.He says he’ll escape from the latches of a temptress? He’ll get away.He says he’ll defeat monsters and demons? He’ll defeat them.And finally, he says he’ll return back to Penelope’s side? You’re damn right he’ll eventually get back to her.
The dude who came up with the idea of Trojan Horse. A natural-born chad who prides himself of impenetrable defense, except the exposed part around his chest.
Although the materialization can be regarded as similar to pseudo-servants such as Zhuge Liang, the true nature of its existence is a composite of heroes, a high servant. Similar to pseudo-servants, the one with the strongest ego will be selected and manifest as an alter-ego.
The individual who became the vessel was not a human mage, but the latest and last homunculus created by the Einzberns. Possessing large-scale Command Spells that covered the entire body, the quality of her magecraft is first-rate, her performance as a Master was said to be top class. She also secretly held the ability to function as a Lesser Grail.
The True Name registered on the Saint Graph is Sitonai. This seems to be due to the fact that out of the three Heroic (Divine) Spirits gathered in the vessel, Sitonai appears to be the most strongly apparent.
Not good with cats.
A girl who shows a pure smile.However, that smile hides a great cruelty——
Personality-wise, she resembles that of the homunculus who became the base. The young Heroic Spirit Sitonai of the Ainu who displays the courage to fight unfitting of her age, The goddess of love Freyja who shows sympathy to her opponents, and the witch Louhi who mercilessly slaughters her opponents... While her personality matches these aspects of the beings fused into the Alter Ego, for now it takes after the personality of 'the girl who became the vessel'.
Known as the Lionheart, Richard was the king of England. He is known as the "Wandering King", not because he was always headed off to a battlefield or on his way back from one, but because he was the king who wandered over the border between history and myth, the last king with one foot in an age when faeries and runes were still out in the open.
As a child, he was talented in nearly every activity he tried, but this alienated him from his peers who were resentful of him. Richard was always charmed by the legends of King Arthur and his knights told to him by his mother.[3] Due to his love, Richard went around searching for items of Arthurian Legends and even called all of his swords Excalibur. At some point, he did, in fact, find Avalon, the scabbard of Excalibur, which he stored in a box, that would one day be used to summon him.
Before he became a king, Richard met a strange man called Saint Germain, during his search for a relic of Arthurian legends. Saint Germain arrived to Richard in a car and possessed knowledge of his search. Though Richard's vassals were wary of the man, Richard chose to trust him, due to him mentioning Alexander the Great. Saint Germain became a mentor to Richard, in a similar manner to Merlin. Saint Germain would later accompany him on his war against his own father in 1189.
Richard was one of the leaders of the Third Crusade, during which he, Saladin and the leading Hassan-i-Sabbah at the time fought together against a Dead Apostle.
Richard finally met his end when an enemy archer, Pierre Basile, sniped him with his crossbow. Although his killer, Richard seems to bear him no ill will, and even has Pierre accompany him as a part of his Noble Phantasm.
Saber often shows an overly cheerful nature, even when put in situations like interrogation or skepticism, easily able to keep his cool in such situations. In his youth, and possibly into his later years, he'd been given the nickname "Oc e Non (Yes and No)", due to his reputation for eccentricity. He also shows regrets to actions he takes, such as heavily damaging the Opera House in his battle with Assassin, requesting to know how much it will cost, in material and manpower, to repair. He also expresses regrets for having been a poor king and causing trouble to his subjects and his younger brother, to the point he has no grudges against his brother for selling him out and trying to usurp his throne.
However, when serious, he has displayed a rather charismatic and somewhat ruthless side, declaring that not eliminating the interrogation officers by force is the bare minimum amount of respect he shows them for their station. He enjoys granting the wishes of the common people as best he can. Saber also seems to have a way of thinking which is difficult for some to follow which results in his vassals questioning him. He looks at situations from a wide and unique perspective.
Richard I was first summoned by the Planet itself as Grand Saber. He occasionally helped the Sanctuary in their quests whenever he feels like it. Just like the Gods living in the Sanctuary, he's more of an observer, just chilling and appreciating the services the Sanctuary have to offer. He's often seen hanging out with Saber Artoria and Charlemagne. He used his Grand Statut in London to defeat Beast IV: Primate Murder.His power allows him to use anything as Excalibur. It is called Excaliblast. And by anything, it is REALLY anything ! Even a wood staff !
Richard is not to be underestimated. He is WAY stronger than he looks like. Izmia and the Pendragon Royal Family have a lot of respect for him. And the sentiment is shared.
- All Swords Are the Same : The only difference in appearance between his sword and Excalibur is that where Excalibur is blue, his sword is red. Justified since he is a fan of King Arthur. After losing his Grand title and joining the Sanctuary, he obtains a new Orichalcum sword -since the power of his Excaliblast varies depending on the quality of what he uses for shoot it- and it is identical to his basic sword. Again, justified since he asks that this be the case.
- Badass Crew: Richard has the ability to call upon several of his fellows such as Vivian/Nimue or Robin of Loxley from the Throne of Heroes to assist him in various ways via his second Noble Phantasm, Rounds of Leonheart.
- Brought Down to Normal : Normal as a Servant anyway. He stated that when he used his Noble Phantasm to defeat Beast IV, he used the full power of his Grand's Saint Graph and changed from Grand Saber to a normal Saber.
- Deus ex Machina : Mash Alter has crushed the heroes (Artoria and her Knights of the Round Table), and they are about to be finished off by Beast IV/Cath Palug. Then this guy shows up and defeats the Beast. Justified in the sense that he is a Grand Servant, the Grand Servants are supposed to look like Deus ex Machina.
- Sword Beam : His Noble Phantasm, Excalibur (Sword of Forever Distant Victory) gives him the ability to shoot waves of light like the original Excalibur can with any sword and anything as long as it looks like a sword.
- Underestimating Badassery : On the receiving side, Camaro never understood how powerful and dangerous he was to her. He warned her that he might kill her, but she didn't believe him because only Soul Calibur can kill her normally, when he actually could thanks to an Authority he had as a Grand Saber. In their skirmish, she held back as much as possible to insult him, but he just did the same. In the end, the only reason she didn't die face to him despite her stupidity in not taking him seriously is because he felt it wasn't his place to kill her. Even then, if Storm had failed to kill her, he would have taken care of it himself.
- The Worf Effect: He's been on the reception of it several times.
He helped King Wen and his Royal General, putting high effort into toppling the Yin Dynasty. His successes award him the title of Ruler of Qi, making him the founder of the Qi kingdom from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period. He's also known as Shi Shangfu, Jiang Taigong, or Jiang Ziya.
In the Ming Dynasty novel Fengshen Yanyi, he's portrayed as a Daoist: a being with paranormal abilities.
He originated the Chinese proverb "spilled water won't go back to its tray", but when asked about it, he looked a bit sad.
A general and the tactician of Zhou, and a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun. A Taoist. He carried out a grand deicide (homicide) plot that unfolded in the background of ancient China's Yin Dynasty insurrections, bringing collateral damage to both Xian and human realms. That was the Investiture.
Ultimately, as history tells, he helped King Wen and his Royal General, commanded the troops as a tactician despite being a Taoist, and served the cause of toppling the Yin Dynasty. Later he founded the kingdom of Qi.
Taigong Wang is credited with devising and utilizing tactics and strategies before military arts were established as a studiable discipline.Two out of the Seven Military Classics of ancient China (the Six Secret Teachings and the Three Strategies of Huang Shigong) are authored by him.
Taigong Wang is a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun, the supreme being in Taoism, therefore, he's a Taoist. He has a Philosophy Key from the Far East's Philosophy Magecraft, which is completely different from Western Magecraft. He uses this Key for what he calls Xian Arts and Fangshi (Tao Arts).
He's a figure from the 1000s BC, meaning he's able to access even the Privileged Domains of the Philosophy Foundations, so the magecraft he uses should be called Philosophy Magecraft from the Age of Gods.
The past contains no records of a romance between Taigong Wang and Daji. As told in The Investiture of the Gods, he defeated Daji and brought the Yin Dynasty to the end of its days. All companions fighting alongside him would unanimously say the thought of Daji seducing Taigong is not plausible.They're correct, she didn't seduce him. On the contrary, Daji hated him, and he ultimately defeated her with his own hands.
"Seducing me ? No, she'd never. She'd kill you if she ever heard you say that. It's just that, you know... She was beautiful. That's the one undeniable fact."
- Big Damn Heroes: Facing Moro, he arrives just in time to save the Sanctuary group. Not only that, but it gives them the means to defeat him next time in the form of a talisman.
- Horrifying the Horror: As all-powerful as she is, Daji clearly sees him as a threat since he killed her in the past.
- Big Damn Heroes: After the defeat of Foreign Lux and the betrayal of the War Master, she arrives at the last moment to inflict a Fate Worse than Death on Foreign Lux.
- Adaptation Deviation: Like all EX fusions appearing in the SanctuaryVerse, this is not an EX fusion but a fusion/being from the Dreamlike World (which is described as a world of possibilities) here.
- Curb-Stomp Battle: He inflicts a severe one to Moro.
- Fusion Dance: One between Whis and Beerus.
- Physical God: The fusion between Beerus, a god of destruction, and Whis, his even more powerful teacher, of course he is.
- Sweet Tooth: The only thing he asked for in exchange for defeating Moro was to be given Earth treats afterwards.
