List of Fate/Apocrypha characters

Last updated

This is a list of characters from Fate/Apocrypha , a Japanese light novel series based on the Fate/stay night franchise by Type-Moon.

Contents

Fate/Apocrypha has an extensive cast of characters, both fictional and inspired by real mythology. Most of the cast is split into two factions, the Red faction and the Black faction, which compete to win the Holy Grail. The main characters are Sieg, a homunculus who Rider-class Servant of the Black faction Astolfo aided, and Jeanne d'Arc, a Ruler-class Servant the Holy Grail itself summoned to oversee the war.

Main characters

Sieg (ジーク, Jīku)
Voiced by: Natsuki Hanae [1] (Japanese); Zach Aguilar [2] (English)
He is introduced as a nameless homunculus, one of many Gordes Musik Yggdmillennia created to serve the unified clan. He possesses unexpected high-quality Magic Circuits, Sieg escapes his confinement and Astolfo rescues him. As Gordes and Siegfried are hunting him down, Sieg is mortally wounded and Siegfried gives him his heart to revive him. Although Jeanne gives him the opportunity to live a new life, Sieg becomes compelled to grant freedom to his fellow homunculi, joining the Greater Grail War and becoming Astolfo's master after Yggdmillennia is killed. Through Siegfried's heart, Sieg can temporarily transform into the Germanic hero, gaining his powers and Noble Phantasm. He further gains the ability to use the powers of Frankenstein's Monster after the lightning her suicide attack releases revives him. He also develops a romantic bond with Jeanne. Sieg and Astolfo ultimately win the Grail War, with Sieg wishing to transform into the dragon Fafnir and carrying the Greater Grail to the reverse side of the world to prevent Amakusa's wish from happening. He remains there for some time before reuniting with Jeanne. In Fate/Grand Order , due to the mixture of Siegfried's and Berserker's powers and his high quality magic circuits, Sieg is classified as a Caster-class Demi-servant.
Ruler (ルーラー, Rūrā) - Jeanne d'Arc (ジャンヌ・ダルク, Jannu Daruku)
Voiced by: Maaya Sakamoto [1] (Japanese); Erika Harlacher [3] (English)
The spirit of the historical figure Jeanne d'Arc, who occupies the body of ordinary French high school student Laeticia (レティシア, Retishia), whose appearance is very similar to Jeanne, though classifying her as a Pseudo-Servant. Laeticia mostly remains within Jeanne's subconscious, but occasionally interacts with other characters. At first, Jeanne is unaware why she was summoned as Ruler beyond ensuring the Greater Grail War occurs fairly. However, over time she learns her true purpose is to stop Amakusa from hijacking the war to fulfil his own wish. Jeanne aids Sieg in starting a new life, but has visions that he will join the war despite her attempts to prevent it. She falls in love with Sieg, but at first assumes these feelings belong to Laeticia. Jeanne is courageous, compassionate, humble, and honest, disbelieving that she is a holy maiden as she was canonized as. As Ruler-class, Jeanne can command other Servants using Command Spells. Jeanne has two Noble Phantasms, "Luminosité Eternelle", her military flag, which can repel enemy attacks; and "La Pucelle", which manifests the flames that killed her. Jeanne is defeated in the final chapters of Fate/Apocrypha, whilst Laeticia is spared. Her spirit later reunites with Sieg in the reverse side of the world. In Fate/Grand Order , Jeanne appears in Orleans as both an ally and antagonist, as the real Jeanne goes into conflict with her Avenger-Class Alter self, who became Orleans' demonic ruler. Alter-Jeanne also appears in other Singularities and Lostbelts as a recurring ally.

Astolfo possesses four Noble Phantasms, including a hippogriff which serves as his mount, "La Black Luna", a large hunting horn that emits sound blasts, the golden lance "Trap of Argalia", and "Casseur de Logistille", a spellbook that allows Astolfo to overcome most forms of magecraft.

His true identity is an incarnated Heroic Spirit named Amakusa Shirou Tokisada (天草 四郎 時貞, Amakusa Shirō Tokisada), a Japanese Christian who died leading the Shimabara Rebellion during the Edo period. In contrast to Angra Mainyu in the Fate/Stay Night timeline, the Einzberns summoned Shirou as a Ruler-class servant during the Third Holy Grail War and acquired a physical body before Darnic took the Greater Grail. Shirou exploits the conflict while manipulating the other Masters of Red, except for Shishigou, into transferring their Command Spells and Servants to him. After his faction acquires the Greater Grail ad the number of sacrifices for activation, Shirou makes his wish to turn all souls of humanity into immortal beings of conscience in bliss and free of sin using the Third Magic. While his wish is granted, Sieg fatally wounds him and Semiramis finishing him off with a poisoned kiss. Sieg prevents Shirou's wish from taking full effect by having the Grail grant his own wish to become Fafnir and carry it to the Reverse Side of the World, where no humans exist for the Grail to affect. Still a Heroic Spirit, Shirou possesses Noble Phantasms that include a replica of his katana that Shakespeare conjured and markings on his arms that allow him to perform miracles and use all types of magic.

She has two Noble Phantasms, "Bridal Chest", an electrical war hammer, and "Blasted Tree", a powerful surge of lightning that will cause her to self-destruct if used at full power. According to her blueprints by Victor Frankenstein, "This lightning attack is not simply lightning, but rather a power that has Frankenstein’s will imbedded within it. As long as it exists, she will never perish." She attempts to kill Mordred with Blasted Tree, but is destroyed; however, she channels part of her essence into Sieg, reviving him and allowing him to use a weakened version of it during his battle with Amakusa.

His Noble Phantasm, "Golem Keter Malkuth", is a gigantic sentient golem that requires a terminal core to power; this core is actually a human host with receptive Magical Circuits. Avicebron sides with Amakusa, sacrificing Roche to activate his Noble Phantasm. Chiron kills Avicebron, who further bonds with his Golem Keter Malkuth and uses its power in an attempt to create Eden on Earth, but Sieg and Mordred destroy it. In Fate/Grand Order , Chaldea summons Avicebron as an ally in the Russian Lostbelt Anastasia. Unlike other servants, who have no memories of the greater grail war after being summoned, Avicebron seems to recall his sacrificing of Roche and has harbored guilt ever since. He later redeems himself by sacrificing himself to become the core for his Golem Keter Malkuth so Chaldea can battle Ivan the Terrible.

Jack became a contributing factor in the serial killer's legend before the Mage's Association destroyed her. However, Yggdmillenia member Hyouma Sagara summoned her as a heroic spirit through a forbidden ritual, and she murdered him after he offered Reika as a sacrifice. Due to Reika being a normal human, Jack replenishes her mana by eating the hearts of mages that she kills. Due to the nature of her identity, those who encounter Jack forget what she looks like. She has two Noble Phantasms, one emitting an ominous, toxic fog, and the other, "Maria the Ripper", allowing her to replicate her infamous murders, and can materialize her knives within female victims. After Atalanta shoots and kills Reika, Jack creates an illusion of Victorian London to torment the archer while attempting to gain sympathy from Sieg and Jeanne. However. Jeanne sees through Jack and convinces her collective souls to pass on to the afterlife, through traces of Jack's being latch on to Atalanta and exploit her ideals to corrupt her.

Using a forbidden means of prolonging his life by feeding on the souls of children, which transforms him into another person, Darnic takes action sixty years later, partaking in another Holy Grail War to achieve his wish for the Prestone clan's survival. This desire motivates Darnic to force Vlad's transformation into Dracula and then possess his Servant's body after being killed to reclaim the stolen Holy Grail, only for Shirou to incinerate his vessel.

Fiore uses Bronze Link Manipulators, which appear as four mechanical, weaponized limbs and allow her to walk and scale buildings.

He convinces Fiore to step down as both a mage and as head of Yggdmillennia, and has her transfer her Magic to him.

<i>Fate/stay night</i> Japanese visual novel game and its franchise

Fate/stay night is a Japanese visual novel game developed by Type-Moon for Windows on January 30, 2004. Initially released as an adult game, a version titled Fate/stay night Réalta Nua, which replaced the sexual content with alternate scenes, added an extended ending scene to the Fate storyline, and featured voice actors from the 2006 anime series, was released on April 19, 2007, for the PlayStation 2. It was later ported to Windows in 2011, PlayStation Vita in 2012, and Android and iOS in 2015. A remastered version of Réalta Nua was released for Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam in 2024, marking the first time the game was made available outside Japan. The plot focuses on a young mage named Shirou Emiya who becomes a warrior in a battle between "Servants" known as the Holy Grail War. Shirou bonds with a heroine through each route and confronts different adversaries participating in the war. The author, Kinoko Nasu, summarised Fate/stay night as:

...the story about legendary heroes and "a boy meets a girl."... The main theme is "conquering oneself." There are three story lines in Fate, each has a different themes. The first one is the "oneself as an ideal." The second one is "struggling with oneself as an ideal." The third one is "the friction with real and ideal." This game is describing the growth of the main character Emiya Shirou. The first storyline shows his slanted mind, the next storyline shows his resolve, and the last storyline gives another resolution for him as a human. All three storylines are essentially equal, but they have different forms.
