Scenario writer: Kinoko Nasu
Character designer: Takeuchi Takashi
CV: Kawasumi Ayako

Main appearances: Fate/Grand Order




Class Skills​

Magic Resistance: A
Cancel spells of A-Rank or below, no matter what greater magecraft it is.



Item Construction: B
Able to create tools that harbor magical energy. That said...the most common ones are "activated by running magical energy through them/one-time uses". The latter mostly resemble bombs.



Territory Creation: EX
The one who stands within the white walls of Camelot—stronghold of the Human Order.
She gives form to one of the greatest defensive formations in a confrontation with a "Threat to Humanity".



Fairy Eyes: -
Not the kind of Mystic Eyes possessed by humans, but rather an innate ability of fairies to "alter the world".
Fairy Eyes possessed by high-ranking fairies are described as eyes capable of seeing through every lie, and reflecting the truth. To fairies, good will and ill will are seen as one and the same, and as such this is a mostly meaningless supernatural power as far as they are concerned. On the other hand, it would not bode well for a human, perplexed by the distinction between good and evil, to possess these eyes.




Personal Skills​

Charisma of Hope: B
Raised as the Child of Prophecy, Artoria, who set out on her journey, is endowed with a Charisma where people feel like they can depend on and expect things from her. Its effect is similar to the “dreamlike charisma that raises one’s morale” that the mage Merlin utilizes.



Avalon le Fae: A
A divine protection of the fairies originating from the Inner Sea of the Planet.
A blessing, or perhaps an oath, given by the Child of Prophecy.
The power possessed by a Fairy of Paradise to bless life and protect the target's karmic power from all sorts of corruption.



Holy Sword Creation: EX
A Skill which demonstrated to Artoria Caster the way she ought to be to find her way towards her ending.
An Arts version of Merlin's "Hero Creation".
Raises Arts performance, grants 1 turn of invincibility (the image of Avalon the scabbard), and grants special attack against a Threat to Humanity.
Once this power has truly awoken, everything that she creates will end up gaining the "sword" attribute.




Noble Phantasm​

The Star of Hope That Embraces You
Rank: A
Type: Anti-Army
Range: 0~50
Maximum Targets: 100 people

Around Caliburn.
Artoria's mindscape is unleashed upon the physical world by the Staff of Selection. It is the tolling of the bells from Paradise, and it both strengthens and protects all those who fight alongside her...even if she herself does not know how it got its name...
(Although not reflected in the actual game, it's supposed to be that "only Artoria herself is not buffed")



Promised Stars that Assemble in a Perfect Circle
Rank: A++
Type: Anti-Army
Range: 1~999
Maximum Targets: All allies

Round of Avalon.
Artoria’s Noble Phantasm after she becomes the Guardian of Britain.
She manifests the Camelot of Twilight and bestows the gift of a "Knight of the Round Table" to those who fight alongside her.
(In game, its effects are the same as Around Caliburn)

Artoria Caster fulfilled her duties in the Fairy Kingdom and vanished.
Afterwards, having consecrated her body to the Holy Sword and turned into the Holy Sword itself, she became a supporting device for the Human Order, which aids "those who oppose a threat that endangers the planet".
Its name is Artoria Avalon.
Her appearance in the third Ascension is actually the proper figure of the girl originally summoned here. What we see in the first and second Ascensions is but an emulation of the way of being of a "departed someone", which created her...not the memories as a Fairy of Paradise, but the memories of spring from when she traveled as the Child of Prophecy.

○ Personality
A what-if had Artoria not drawn the king's sword, but been raised as a village girl.
A sore loser who remains strong in the face of adversity (standing up even if something unpleasant happens). She hides her true feelings without letting anyone know, due to her always taking the surrounding mood into consideration—the very picture of a perfectly common girl.
Spending her time doing nothing but studying magecraft, she is a practical researcher who runs around the fields just like a young boy.
As the Child of Prophecy, she sets out in response to the expectations of those around her, journeying for the sake of saving Britain, thus taking on the role of the story's protagonist.
...At least ostensibly, this is her personality and disposition.

The Artoria from Pan-Human History had a personality without facades, but Artoria Caster is not so strong. On the inside, she is a pessimist with an extremely frail and timid disposition.
Two factors—the Fairy Eyes which let her see the lies of all the world, and being a Fairy of Paradise meant to put an end to Britain—made Artoria Caster have such a despondent, not to mention pessimistic, disposition.
(This was further fueled by the apathetic influence of the childhood teacher who taught her magecraft)

In her heart, she lets out a sigh, thinking that both she herself, the "Child of Prophecy", as well as the people around her who self-destruct by placing their hopes on someone like her, are all fools.
(It is not like she has burned out or is looking down on them. She is merely feeling heavy.)

Still, since she is mindful about the surrounding mood, Artoria does not reveal those inner aspects of herself, and instead ends up keeping up appearances by saying "Okay, leave it to me!" and behaving exactly as those around her expect.

She wasn't always the strong heroine you see today. She's a hard-working commoner who is bad at the essentials, makes a lot of blunders, and stumbles all over her path. Her only merit is the fact she is quick to get up after a fall. One can say that the very fact that her personality—worrying about her surroundings, without falling to evil nor forgetting about decorum—does not waver, no matter what sort of harsh circumstances or cruel treatment she faces, serves as proof that she is a noblewoman. This is the definitive difference between her and the Fairy King Oberon.

◇

During the pilgrimage portion of “Round Table of the Fairy Realm - Avalon le Fae”, the false Child of Prophecy, Mashu, was motivated by a thought such as “I’m scared, but I need to do the best I can in order to help everyone”. Meanwhile, the true Child of Prophecy, Caster, was motivated by a thought such as “I’m scared, but I have no choice but to continue, since everyone would be disappointed if I said anything”.

She kept hiding this negative mental state in which "everyone is scary, society is disgusting, and I can't keep my motivation up even if you tell me to save the world. But since going against those around me is also unpleasant, I'll work hard as a savior".

Although that ended up becoming a noble deed in the eyes of others, "the same way of being as King Arthur", Artoria Caster's inner aspects are awfully abject, pessimistic and negative. As such, she is always finding faults in herself.
"I was able to persevere this time, but most likely, next time, I will probably end up giving up on everything..."

If the Fairy Kingdom is a fairy tale imagined by Morgan, the journey of pilgrimage is a fairy tale describing Artoria's growth. Despite appearing to fill the same role as Dorothy—the protagonist of "The Wizard of Oz"—she actually possesses a weakness akin to an aggregation of the scarecrow that can't walk properly (can't see his own feet, has no wits), the woodcutter with a hollow heart, and the lion that doesn't want to display courage.
Why was this Artoria able to remain as the Child of Prophecy to the very end? What was she fighting for?
That answer becomes the end of her story.



○ Setting:
An orphan who came with the tides to the cape of Tintagel, on the edge of the British Lostbelt in the year 2001 of the Queen’s calendar.
She is the “Child of Prophecy” who will bring salvation to the Fairy Kingdom.

A special fairy who was dispatched from the Inner Sea of the Planet, Avalon, to the surface, along with the Staff of Selection.
After drifting into the Lake District, she was placed on a boat along with many treasures by the decision of the Chief of the Mirror Clan, eventually reaching the coast of Tintagel and being raised as a fairy of Tintagel from then on.

In the Lostbelt, she is the same being as the "someone" who was eventually burdened with the Holy Sword in Pan-Human History.
In addition, she is an "accumulation device" sent to collect information on the surface, in order to produce the Holy Sword—a decisive weapon against the "threat to the planet".
Since she is not a fairy originating from the Fairy Kingdom of Britain, the fairies from Britain have an instinctive antipathy against her.
Conversely, for fairies who hate all fairies from Britain, fairies not born in the Six Clans, and fairies who hate themselves to begin with, the "Fairy of Paradise" is a source of solace.

◇

“In sixteen years hence, a savior shall travel the world, and at the end of a pilgrimage to six bells toll, the false throne shall fall to ruin.”
The Chief of the Mirror Clan, who was able to peer into the future, left such a prophecy.
Thereafter, it has been well-known gossip among the fairies living under princess Morgan’s oppressive regime, wishing it would only come to pass.
Artoria was given refuge in Tintagel as the Child of Prophecy, burdened with great expectations as she was treated as something precious, abused, and finally, at sixteen years of age, she embarked from the village.

She studied magecraft within Lostbelt Britain, having been chosen by the Staff of Selection. Her teacher was Merlin (or so he professed himself).
She used to hear voices coming from the staff every now and then, but that came to an end after a certain incident.
As such, one of the reasons for her to go on the pilgrimage is “to actually meet Merlin”.

She possesses Fairy Eyes which have been lost to the fairies of Britain.
Consequently, she may suddenly catch a glimpse of “human malice”.
When her Fairy Eyes are invoked without warning, she finds herself isolated in the midst of a “terrible storm of malice”.
This caused her to view fairies and human beings alike as equally “scary and revolting”.
When sleeping, she sees only this “storm of malice” in her dreams.
Originally, it wouldn't be surprising if this condition made her go mad and caused her to forsake Britain, but the one thing that served as hope for Artoria was a “single tiny, blue star that shined beyond the storm”.
She could not know whether it was “a handful of human kindness amidst the malice,” or “a shining future,” but it did not make a difference to her.
Artoria simply felt encouraged by the light of that star.
“Whenever I wanted to die, it always kept shining”
“No matter what, it was always there in the storm”
“Me and that star had no relation, no connection, whatsoever”
“But as long as that star kept shining, it was impossible for me to lose in any way”
→
“But, haven’t you been telling lies too?”
Artoria Caster started when she heard Oberon, the prince of fairies, point out her lies in the middle of the story.
Oberon could see through her, and tell that she saw the lies of people as something frightening and revolting.
※The Fairy Eyes’ influence allowed her to see the truth of the world→she saw it as a storm of darkness, mired in malice.
Occasionally, Artoria might show a “cute laughter, as if trying too hard to find something funny,” but in actuality it was rather that “she felt forced to laugh to be able to endure the sheer repulsiveness”.

She perseveres in helping because she sees that single bright light (the star) in the midst of the storm.

“There are so many things that scare me, and so many things I just find implausible”
“I couldn’t care less about either Britain or the future”
“But not ever would I betray the light of that little star, which has always shined so bright for me”

No matter how much that storm of human society seemed like a river of waste,
her hope, which she had seen since she was a little girl, was “something shining in the storm”.
It wasn’t for society, or for peace, or for herself.
Its brilliance had nothing to do with her, nor would it ever disappear, even if, until the very end, there was never a time where it came to her.
“Look how brightly it shines. How it continues to fight even now.”
It was that very tenacity which always encouraged her.

“As long as that little star keeps shining———
I myself will never be defeated”



○ Abilities:
A fairy (A-Rei[1]) dispatched to the world’s surface from Avalon, the Inner Sea of the Planet.
She is the same sort of specimen as Morgan, the Fairy of the Lake; they’re basically sisters.
They are “accumulation devices” which gather information on the surface world, in order to construct a Holy Sword—a decisive weapon against a “threat to the planet”.
This power is always sealed by a safety lock, which can only be released by ringing each and every one of the bells situated across Britain.

Her third Ascension does not take the form of Artoria Caster, but the one who offered herself to casting the Holy Sword, consequently becoming the very concept of a Holy Sword. Her name is Artoria Avalon.
A nameless king who renders assistance in battle, whether it be the past, present, or the future, as long as there exists someone who requires a Holy Sword.
When she becomes Artoria Avalon, she can use many of her treasured swords as catalysts for magecraft.
The Shadow-Treading Carnwennan, the Lightning Flash Spumador, and the Mythological Mystic Code Marmyadose.
Marmyadose is a large sword that was forged by the god of fire and given to great heroes.
It is said that this sword exceeds Excalibur in power alone, and during times when King Arthur would lend Excalibur to Gawain, she used this large sword as a substitute.



○ Attitude toward Master (as the Child of Prophecy):
She immediately felt close to them when she heard they were a “magus”, even if from Pan-Human History.
Even more so when she heard they were “thrust into a position to save the world by those around them”.
As acquaintances, and like-minded individuals, they decided to travel together.
At first, because of curiosity and a feeling of kinship.
Before long, to root for each other and have fun.
And in the end, for no other reason than friendship.

However, those memories of spring were short-lived.



○ Attitude toward Master (when in Chaldea):
She is a perfect recreation of “the girl who went on a pilgrimage with the Master of Chaldea”.
An emulation based on “what if that girl was still alive right now”. Although, because she is the result of a sincere transformation by the guardian of Britain and the concept of the Holy Sword, Artoria Avalon, there is no falsity in neither behavior nor reactions.



○ Related Characters:

Morgan (Lostbelt):
I may lose out in terms of magical energy and smarts, but I'm definitely on top when it comes to competitive spirit and guts! Huh? She used to be King of the Demon Boars[2] back in the day? Come on! She's a straight upgrade in every way———!
But still, when talking about final achievements, I'm hardly on track to lose, right?

Baobhan Sith:
From the first moment we met in Gloucester, she was a fairy who didn’t lie.
She said and did whatever was on her mind, even if it was rude, but I was used to harshness like that from Knocknarea, so I didn’t mind. I kinda liked Baobhan Sith, actually.
I feel bad about my winning line back at the auction house, though.

Barghest:
Even though she’s blessed in just about every way, she doesn’t let that get in the way of her diligence. That’s what Bageko is like. A spineless worm like me could never stand to look her straight in the eyes.
I’m just so jealous!
Fairies like that really need to be put to the test, so that’s why, whenever I get the chance, I drop by and pester her for a meal. If I leave her all on her own, she’ll probably just waste away in self-loathing.

Melusine:
I was fed up with Aurora as soon as we met, but if there’s one thing that makes me sympathetic to her, it’s being compared to Melusine...
Whereas Aurora grew little by little, and would stop being the kind of girl she’d always been, Melusine just remained the same the whole time, right?
What kind of sick torture is it to have something closer to your own ideal self grow so close to you?

Knocknarea:
I would like to show her what the woman from Connacht in Pan-Human History is like.
I’m sure she would have clawed her eyes out after seeing her, then raised her face while covering her eyes with her hands, and shouted out something really rude...
Ah, maybe not go as far as to swear. It’s Knocknarea after all, you know? As long as humanity’s got chocolate, I’m sure she’d emerge from anything bursting with joy!

Oberon:
I don’t really feel like I have anything in particular I need to say to Oberon, but...
Ah, melons! What’s up with Oberon eating melons in the cafeteria all the time!?
I don’t even think he likes melons either! He’s just always pestering people about how they’re the “rarest and most expensive ones”! They’re tiny too![3]

Merlin:
Huuuh, this is the real one...?
They look and act nothing alike, but they’re still soooo much like peas in a pod, aren’t they!?

Muramasa:
If fate was the primary reason that boy and this girl were led to each other, it would seem that fate is more than a little ironic, wouldn’t it?
On behalf of the girl who is no longer here with them, heartfelt gratitude and respect is extended.
If he had been able to meet with Ector, she’s sure they would’ve been a great match.
It seems that even at the very end he never told her that after being thrown down the pit by Melusine, and returning alive, he stopped by the smithy on the cape, where no one was to be found.




Nameless Fairy​

The other Artoria.
She’s an unnoteworthy fairy girl of the Wind Clan (in the fairy system).
In Lostbelt Britain, those fairies who become “unpopular, without purpose, and without name” don’t have long before they turn into a sort of aquatic plant—into Moss[4]—and subsequently disappear.
This fairy had committed no crime whatsoever, but had simply lost her intended place as a result of losing her name, and as such drifted to Cornwall, a forest at the furthest reaches of Britain.
At the beginning of the scenario, she’s the fairy who helps the main character when they become stranded in Cornwall.
Around then, she was actually given her name from Artoria, who was trying to run away from “the heavy responsibility imposed on her”.
※At that time, her character nameplate in the scenario actually changes from “Nameless Fairy” to “Fairy”[5]. However, she doesn’t tell anyone that she received Artoria’s name.
During the final part of the opening scenario, when the main character is discovered to be human, and the fairies are pushed to the brink of savageness, she helps the main character and Artoria escape to the outskirts of the forest, but upon reaching her own limit, she turns into Moss, attacks the main character, and is then defeated.

Her true name is Hope.
She is a savior-type fairy, born to spread hope to the people (or rather, to the fairies).

◇

Like the name “Hope” implies, she is a fairy in charge of spreading hope throughout the world, and for a long time, she carried out her irresponsible duties (the unreasonable act of “making everyone happy” without any form of concrete plan!), but people demanded hope endlessly, and before long, hope became something taken for granted. No matter what good deed she performed, no one appreciated her. Everyone forgot about her, and she drifted off to the Nameless Forest, having been worn down and brought to despair by her very own namesake, “hope”.
In many ways, she is in the same position as Artoria Caster.

When viewing Hope as “a savior consumed by the people”, you can really understand the meaning of her lines when she is about to turn into Moss.
(However, it is perhaps something that can only really be felt by those people who can truly relate to it... At least, when the name Hope is mentioned at the end, I would really like it for people to react with an “Ah...”)

She lost her value to society, her role ended in fatigue, she became disappointed in herself, and both her place in the world and her name were lost. But even so, at the very end/until the very end, she became a “hope” without substitute for someone within the storm.

Since this was such a crucial role, I wanted Sumisu-san, who I had loved since the start of FGO, to draw her, so I requested for them to draw it.






Comment from Illustrator:​

Castoria started out with her second ascension design, and then her first and third came along. Her second ascension design was drawn up as a rough sketch during the early stages of the second part [of the game]. When imagining a Caster-class Artoria, the idea that came to mind was “an Artoria sneakily stealing Merlin’s staff and traveling in secret, disguised as a magus”. Both the silhouette, and the pose itself, were almost done already at that point. When it came to formally creating her character, I made her first ascension based on what I saw of her role in the script and such. I also wanted to give her a fitting final stage, so her third ascension had its concept completely revamped, attempting to give her a new design based on “an Artoria who mastered magecraft”. As work on this design progressed, I really did feel like all the different experiences I’d gotten via FGO came together, and it gave me a sort of special emotional attachment to this project. (Takashi Takeuchi)






Comment from Illustrator (Hope/Nameless Fairy):​

If talking about fairies, there’s definitely butterfly wings! And elf ears!!! While her back is hidden behind her wings, the rounded back gives a sense of romanticism...and also, short-cut frizzy hair just makes it even better!! I was super happy that I got an OK in response when I submitted the final drawing where I had stealthily added her drawers for the hell of it. If she was ever going to fly, that addition would really put my mind at ease. When the request for this illustration came in, the lines for the setting were like “a fairy girl who loves flowers” and “seeming rather hapless, admirable, and modest”, so it turned out to be quite the unusual silhouette from what I normally like to draw! There just came more and more decorations! It felt so weird! I was also a bit...worried that the bouquet around her neck would turn out too flashy, but I absolutely wanted to include that flower element, and I’m glad I was daring enough to do so. I guess I was also fortunate to have the luxury of coming up with the design while being able to fantasize about her standing next to Caster Artoria-chan... (Sumisu)

No one's gonna guess what these four servants share in common?
 
also what time period was it when the mages summoned the first servants.

How did servants ever come to existence anyway. (like why does the throne of heroes exist and etc) why did such a thing come into existence.

The first servant was technically Goetia
Also for your second question, i suppose the root did it.

Galatea is underrated guys she needs more love. Give this gorgeous Greek statue girl some more love

Sigh......What wonderful love you all have been born with. If possible, I would like us to gather and talk about each of your love. That’s right......I believe it’s called “girls’ talk”.

I can understand she says to the mecha eli chans, Nezha, danzou, and Frankenstein’s monster since they’re girls

but why would she say this babbage, xiang yu, and minamoto-no-tametomo. They’re male so it wouldn’t make sense.

CLASS SKILLS​

Magical Resistance: C

Nullifies Magecraft spells that were done with a chant of two verses or below. Cannot nullify large-scale Magecraft such as Great Magecrafts and Ritual Spells.

Presence Concealment: A

At first glance, Jane’s appearance and personality totally stand out, but she is indeed a professional scout. If she is serious, she can erase her presence to the extent that people would not even notice her being right in front of them. Because of that, everyone would notice the state of affairs they are in after they realized what she has just done.

Riding: A

Piloting and remodelling spaceships are also some of Jane’s specialties. Also, she does not hide the fact, but she does not always obtain consent from the owner(s) before remodelling and/or piloting their spaceship(s).

Independent Action: A+

The ability to remain independent in the present time even when rejecting the Magical Energy supply from one’s Master.

Jane’s overflowing frontier spirit promises her the freedom to act.

PERSONAL SKILLS​

Subversive Activities: B

A Skill for a brilliant scout. The ability to reduce the effectiveness of the enemies’ attacks by perceiving the slightest gap in those attacks in order for Jane to position herself in those attacks’ blind spots. It is the same as Robin Hood’s Subversive Activities.

Galactic Messenger: EX

A Skill that is based on the historical fact where Jane swam across a chilly river in order to have directives delivered. It lowers enemies’ morales while raising allies’ morales. But because “it is not clear whether that historical fact is true or not”, the attack power up being applied to her allies becomes probability-based. (Given that Jane herself believes in that historical fact, she will definitely power up.)

O’ Polar Star, Show Me the Way: B

A miniaturized version of Jane’s “Sentinel Stellaris” Noble Phantasm that can now be no longer used anymore. A unique Skill whose effect increases in efficacy in proportion to the amount of critical stars available to her. It is said that it was originally a Noble Phantasm for the purpose of finding out that one hope that can turn the tables, meant to be used against “a threat from a different dimension that is impossible for humanity to defeat.”

NOBLE PHANTASMS​

Space Dead Man’s Hand: A Black Hand that Leads to Death
Rank: D
Classification: Anti-Personnel Noble Phantasm
Range: 1~50
Maximum Number of Targets: 1 person

Jane shoots a bullet engraved with “Bad Luck”, shooting through the opponent’s head from behind them with a single shot. Even if it is shot right in front of the opponent, this attack will go around and cut in towards them from behind their back without exception. This grants the attack a “certain hit” effect. It is said that the shot opponent will hallucinate playing cards in the makeup of “a two pair that resembles the Aces and Eights of Clubs and Spades” while in the course of their death. It is a special move that causes the same manner of death that “The Champion of the Plains”, “Wild Bill” Hickok – who was Jane’s lover and comrade-in-arms – had suffered to her opponent.

In historical fact, in the town of Deadwood in South Dakota, “Wild Bill” – while in the midst of amusing himself with poker in a bar – was assassinated from behind by Jack McCall. It is said that the cards Hickok held in his hand at that time was a two pair that resembled the Aces and Eights of Clubs and Spades. Thereafter, this black two pair is called the Dead Man’s Hand.

Sentinel Stellaris: O’ Polar Star, Shine Upon My Enemy
Rank: A+
Classification: Anti-Goddess Noble Phantasm
Range: 1~99
Maximum Number of Targets: 1 person

In the Servant Universe, this is Calamity Jane’s 1st Noble Phantasm. Something that served as the foundation for the Assault Protocol Noble Phantasm “Four Cards”, which was used by the squad (team) that once defeated “The Primeval Goddess”. It “discovers” the enemy’s weakness(es) before fixing that condition(s) into place as “reality”.

Once “The Primeval Goddess” was defeated, Jane received a curse as a result, causing this Noble Phantasm to be made impossible to use.

PERSONALITY​

A mood maker who wants to support “someone who does their best” rather than “herself”. As far as Jane is concerned, with her extremely positive thoughts, the future is something that will come as a matter of course. She will never lose hope, even if the existence of the universe before her is at stake, and she will believe in everyone surviving in the end with an easygoing attitude. Her motives are all out of a good will, but there are times when she will occasionally take actions that will leave others with some doubts and make them question “Is she actually a good person?” For example, if a hypothetical situation becomes something like, “Watch out! It looks like the bridge is gonna collapse!”, then she will come to a house in the neighbourhood and completely cut off and take a supporting pillar from it for the bridge.

The only disciple taken in by Professor Tokiomi – a space archaeologist who held a principle where he did not take in any disciple with the exception of his daughter (Ishtar) – and, should he be in an emergency and something happened to him as a result, someone who earned his trust to the extent that he would entrust Jane with the situation that would occur after his death. Nonetheless, she had not been academically appreciated by the Professor, viewing her as someone like an unworthy disciple who was not able to learn the orthodox techniques to accurately decipher the historical materials and infer the historical facts from them; instead of trying to use those orthodox techniques, she would start to say “It was right where I was pointing at with my sixth sense” when discovering a relevant material.

To Professor Tokiomi, he had predicted that “Even if I can teach her the innate goodness of man by following a textbook, to me, (because Ishtar is a clever child,) she will see through that fake goodness right away, and aside from the period of time where I am staying close to her, she may eventually lose interest in that goodness and completely shift to her natural wickedness. But if she – by looking at Jane, who is a good person from the very beginning and is not two-faced, and who arrives at the truth in a straight line after some struggle… despite the fact that there are even some times where she brings about destruction and disorder to the surroundings as compensation for those traits – can come to realize that good and evil are not necessarily limited to the two sides of the same coin, I think she will at least never end up stooping to plain evil.”

And just as the Professor predicted there, Ishtarin carried through with her training as the brilliant straight woman of the duo to Jane’s comedy act without lapsing into wickedness even once, and although she is fussy during the times when she is calculating her profits, and although it is somewhat easy for her to lose her temper, she had healthily(?) grown up into a fierce bounty hunter who helps the weak and snaps at the strong.
Moreover, regarding Jane, she has truly not changed at all, astonishingly.

Jane will never blame other people, and on the contrary, she will rejoice and praise them for anything they accomplish, no matter how trivial those accomplishments are. In addition, regarding that kind of point, she has a good compatibility with Ishtar, who gets carried awa… er, rather, who grows with praise.

A capable space scout, Jane’s survival abilities are exceptional. However, she has zero life skills. Her sabotage and disturbance skills that do not involve anti-personnel targets (and when she is put on the spot) are reliable, but her direct anti-personnel combat capabilities fall one step short in comparison.

SPEECH EXAMPLES​

“It’s okay! You can do it. Yeah, you can do it! Although I’m not confident you actually can!”
“Eh? You dropped your cell phone in that crevice over there? Leave it to meee☆
I’ll try setting some explosives in there right away!”
“Ishtarin. You know, the output is somewhat insufficient, so I’m going to use your gems, alriiight?” (“But Ishtar is sleeping!”)

HISTORICAL IMAGE / CHARACTER IMAGE​

A scout and gunslinger from America’s Frontier Era. Although Jane is not a so-called ‘outlaw’, and although much of her achievements are exaggerated and she has made many dubious claims, she had lived a life that was filled with both praise and censure, even during the days when she was alive. She has a large quantity of debuffing Skills mixed in with her positive disposition due to that dual nature of hers. A figure of the American West who took the word “Calamity” for her own name, and someone who lived in the same time period as Billy the Kid. An expert with guns, and a brilliant scout, she was crowned with the nickname “The Heroine of the Plains” for being the comrade-in-arms of her lover “Wild Bill” Hickok – “The Champion of the Plains”, the two having simultaneously ran through many predicaments together.

Regarding how Jane got the name “Calamity”, there is a rumour where she is “The Helping Hand who Saves Those From Calamity” in that she rescued the cavalry that were being assailed by the Indingenious peoples, there is a rumour where she is “The Woman who Invokes Calamity” in that her lovers would always lose their lives in the middle of battle, and there is another rumour where both of these folk tales are regarded as true. She is also known as “Miss Greedy Woman”.

CHARACTER IMAGE IN “FATE/GRAND ORDER”​

A bounty hunter who does not think about difficult matters, is cheerful and happy, and loves new things. Jane’s life’s work is to support those who she cares about rather than herself. A Space☆Cheerleader who lives on “this day”, forgetting about the grudges from yesterday as well as the debts from the days before yesterday once and for all.

In the Servant Universe, Jane joins the “Primeval Goddess Sealing Team” 2000 years ago as their scout. Although the team succeeded in the sealing operation due to the accurate reconnaissance data that Jane provided, Jane received a curse of “immortality” as the price for killing the Goddess, and that resulted in her completely attaining a body that is unable to die until the time the Goddess awakens again. By all rights, a person’s spirit would get tired and degenerate from wandering for a long time, but Jane did not fall to her knees from this curse because of her characteristic cheerfulness.

CONNECTIONS TO OTHER CHARACTERS​

Space Ishtar (First Saint Graph[1])

“As far as I’m concerned, Ishtarin is my friend, my money, my partner, and my target, but after all is said and done, she’s very much my friend, you know?☆
But say, I do have a problem with her in not giving even the slightest attention to my romantic tales~
Master from Earth, I wonder, but won’t you come back for me once again?~”

Billy the Kid

“What do you think about a fella who happened to get shot from behind and die while in the middle of playing poker? Stupid? Aahhaahaaa! I think so too!”

Paul Bunyan

“No way, that’s Paul Bunyan!? She’s a very cute girl, riiight!? Nice, this Bunyan is niiice! I want to take her with me on a trip to the Frontier!!”

Sigurd

“Wow, this Sigurd has a wife! Something like a pairing between a beautiful man and a beautiful woman, I diiig it~!
… Huh? But you can say with confidence that your wife has a maxed out murderous impulse!? Oh Sigurd, did you have an affair or something!?”

Stheno

“Remind me, did I tell you who was in the Goddess Suppression A-Team~?
Although I can’t say the name of the Master who took the trouble to bring all of us together, it was Sigurd of the Spedrabusters, Old Man Hec from the Trojan Colony, me, an Ancient Goddess – Lady Stheno, who took sides with humanity… or perhaps I should say, collected funds from her believers for our activities, the broken Rider – Red Rabbit, and that cosmic good-for-nothing bum, Merlin. Also, Space Toshizou, who took me all the way to the Taboo Region by ship. These 8 + one more person altogether defeated the gargantuan Ishtarin☆”

Comment from Illustrator​

Thickened eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, hotpants. There are many components I am fond of that I used for Jane. Although it took a long time to get to her implementation since she was designed and finished at the same time as Blackbeard and the others, I am especially more attached to her to that extent because of that.

for the same reason people ship BB with ritsuka, or Nero with Ritsuka, or Tomoe with Ritsuka, and let's not talk about the rare cases of shipping bryn/kriem with ritsuka.

To be fair Tamamo through her interludes show to actually develop feelings for Ritsuka despite remember Hakuno, and even with that it end accepting her feelings and decide to follow them while she still is Ritsuka servant.

BB make clear that her true feelings are for Hakuno and she is mostly trolling with Ritsuka, except I guess in her summer version where she seem to actually develop feelings for Ritsuka. Nero however don't really have a excuse because the writters didn't wrote a justification like with Tamamo.

As someone with Bryn NP 2 I can confidently say that those that ship her with Ritsuka genuinely suffer from the horny curse, there is no other possible justification for something that crazy.

the way tamamo behaves with us, even after her interlude, is taken way out of context. Yes, she will flirt with us and use innuendo. But that is in no way love. The only difference between tamamo before and after her interlude is that she knows that we're nice and trust us now. Hakuno is still her one true love.

Also, never got the idea that summer BB suddendly loves Ritsuka, she is still shown to somewhat care for him and teases him, but there's no reason to assume that she forgot Hakuno or anything

edit: actually, now that I think about it, pretty ironic how both are the exact same in that regard.

From what I remember she quite literally say to love Ritsuka, though could be wrong since I saw the interludes long ago.

With summer BB I say that based on some interaction and mainly her CE where she even spend an eternal honeymoon with Ritsuka in a time stop so he never get to suffer the Lostbelts.

I think you wanted to quote Pokemonfan807 comment with the Chiyome image but well. Ritsuka x Serenity isn't really underrated, is a considerably big ship (even in verse), Ritsuka x Chiyome indeed is more mild but still exist, at least enough to see things related to it from time to time.

yes, just like how she was saying she was lovey-dovey and in love with him at its beginning. And how it was explicitly said to be playing around

again, she doesn't act differently compared to her regular self, and using a metaphorical "honeymoon of confinement" is kek

I mean, if she says in her interlude that now is serious with her feelings then yes, the matter is different to the beginning when she was explicitly joking.

In general they act the same, but at least from what I remember her fusion with the other gods in her summer form actually affected her personality, so that along with some different interactions and CE made me believe that she indeed seemed to develop feelings, also the fact that she is sealing herself along with him for eternity so he don't suffer is something that I don't believe even BB would do if she didn't had some feelings for the other part.

Though don't know why to debate so much about this, at the end don't really matter what you or me believes in this and so much debate is irrelevant, the original point was to explain how people could do x ship which is already answered so there is no point to continue.
