Johanna

, Class Name , is a Ruler-class Servant summoned by Ritsuka Fujimaru in the Grand Orders of Fate/Grand Order.
==Profile==
===Identity===
 is a legendary figure from the Middle Ages, supposedly a 9th-century woman who disguised herself as a man to enter the Catholic priesthood and rose high enough to become Pope for a short period, going against the Catholic Church's ingrained tradition of male popes.
She didn't actually exist in history, being a purely fictional character. Though the story was widely believed for centuries, there were no references to her of any kind until the 13th century, and modern historians have found no evidence of her existence and concluded the legend to be a work of fiction.Fate/Grand Order: Cosmos in the Lostbelt - Traum: Life and Death of a Certain Fantasy - Section 13: Carrying Out the Assassination / Then a Feast
She is depicted as "" in 's deck.Fate/Grand Order: Cosmos in the Lostbelt - Traum: Life and Death of a Certain Fantasy - Section 5: Countdown
===Appearance===
The Craft Essence "Keep a Prayer Burning in Your Heart" was Johanna's first appearance with brown hair, well before she was made playable and was shown to have brown hair in her First and Second Ascensions.
===Personality===
Her existence being disproved by factual evidence both depresses and frustrates Johanna. However, she also believes it was right to do so. At times, knowing she is a fictional existence, she questions her ability to perform her duty and her right to pray to the Lord, fearing she is deceiving others when she does.Fate/Grand Order: Cosmos in the Lostbelt - Traum: Life and Death of a Certain Fantasy - Section 12: Planning the Assassination
She is as kind-hearted as they come, but her being cheerful, spunky and confrontational is nothing like one would expect from a pope. Bradamante describes her as having a "might makes right" attitude akin to Turpin.Fate/Grand Order: Cosmos in the Lostbelt - Traum: Life and Death of a Certain Fantasy - Section 17: The Emperor Laughs
She is a so-called illusory existence; a Servant made manifest through countless prayers.
As such, she perfectly understands the fickleness of her own being, but is determined to carve a strong and long-lasting mark into this world, no matter how fleeting she may be.
She will pray in earnest, discuss God and her faith in earnest, and lead her life in earnest, all without complaint.
However, since she is a fundamentally an insouciant person, there is no denying that she definitely gives off the impression that she seriously lacks any ability to take things seriously.
As you get to know her better, the impression that "maybe this person is actually unexpectedly savage and crude?" definitely grows stronger.
She is spirited, light-hearted, and is willing to duke it, even without grudges, simply in attempts to get to know others better.
She will never yield to the strong, but will lay down her life for the weak.
She embodies the proper way of being for someone placing their trust in God.
Though she may be a fantasy, one might consider she truly possesses spirituality appropriate of a pope.

====Valentine's Day Event: Johanna-san and Unconfirmed Love====
==Abilities==
Though her very existence was denied by history, Johanna is still a pope and bearer of miracles.Fate/Grand Order: Cosmos in the Lostbelt - Traum: Life and Death of a Certain Fantasy - Section 14: Total War - Restoration Realm (Part 1)Fate/Grand Order: Cosmos in the Lostbelt - Traum: Life and Death of a Certain Fantasy - Section 15: Total War - Restoration Realm (Part 2) While she led the Restoration Realm's assault on fortified city of Sirmium's north gate, Johanna was shot at by the Via Regia Archers who were defending the gate, only for their arrows and bullets to avoid her. Afterward, Johanna simply commanded the gate to open, causing it to open on its own.
===Class Skills===
*Magic Resistance (EX Rank): By virtue of being a pope, she boasts exceptionally high magic resistance.
*Territory Creation (A Rank): From the moment she assumed the papal throne, she unmistakably became the most supreme authority.
===Personal Skills===
*Saint of Imaginations (A Rank): Historical sources make it all too clear that Pope Joan never actually existed. Despite this, her legend which originated in the 13th century remains ever attractive to many today. She acquires pseudo-skills related to those of saints. At A-rank, there is virtually no difference from an actual saint.
*The Shunned Papal Procession (C Rank): One of the anecdotes related to Joan. It is said that the popes who came after would avoid the street on the way to the Lateran, where it was said that she delivered a child and subsequently died. When combined with her Territory Creation, she is able to form simple yet durable Bounded Fields against those antagonistic towards her. A western anti-hero would find it very challenging to approach her.
*Disputation of the Pope (EX Rank): The case of Joan wasn't just one of whether she existed or not, but also regarded the issue of the putrescence spread through the church, her ideals in relation to her position, and every other aspect of her being. These were all put on the chopping block, and each and every time, whispers surfaced that she might have been real. These whispers became the source of all her power and faith.
===Noble Phantasm===
Johanna's Noble Phantasm is Legendum Pāpa Thronus.
