Fgo fanservant I’ve been playing around w for a while now. I could go into like a 10 page rant like I have a long explanation for him, keeping in mind fgo is rarely straightforward. But I’ll try to keep it brief
This is Basically a weapons projecting berserker crossed with a support caster, misplaced in the saber class due to it being the bond which ties the 2 as “brothers,” but is capable of self applying the berserker class with one of his skills. He represents mostly “The sword forged by svyatogor.” Sword here expanded to mean any weapon he creates, which here comes from deconstructing his own body. The bigger party is a combination of rusted machine (father) and nature goddess (mother) Having transcended both flesh and machine, but mostly stays in heaven where he was banished both before and after he fell into eternal sleep. the smaller party is a possessed homunculus who was sacrificed when he turned 32, at which point his body was beginning to decompose and the experiment was deemed a failure. He was initially supposed to register to the grail as as Ilya muromets, instead forming this composite because he “hadn’t earned it” by Svyatogor’s standards because he did not come to him willingly, but instead needed to be rescued, this joining of the saint graphs patching his body to match Svyatogor’s “ideal,”. Thus he’s closer to a halfway between Svyatogor’s “wife” and “brother,” or even the son/daughter of Ilya muromets, the point at which one is sacrificed or saved by choice of the narrative, even though they are presented as equals. he is preoccupied with becoming equal to others or beating down other strong people so they become equal to the weak, or taking that which is weak and ordinary and making it shine like it is holy, all the while constantly yearning for its destruction. Even after he earns the name Ilya he prefers you call him Svy, or “fool,” as in, a holy fool who endures suffering, rather than understanding him as what he’s supposed to be, because the original was too precious to him to ever be replaced. Personality wise the big one is a bemused sadist who finds everything horrible that happens entertaining, the smaller party is earnestly dedicated, loyal, honest, perpetually poker-faced and near mechanical fighter, no matter how absurd what he says or does might appear. Because of Svyatogor’s influence is the primary function, he’s a dangerous unit to play with, strong but all his skills potentially cause damage to himself and others on his team.
