Sétanta

, Class Name , is a Saber-class Servant summoned by Ritsuka Fujimaru in the Grand Orders of Fate/Grand Order Arcade.
==Profile==
===Identity===
The figure of the great hero Cú Chulainn from Celtic mythology and Ulster mythology————during the times of training. His mind as well as his body are more immature and younger than the him who materializes as a Lancer or a Caster. But at the same time, he also hides endless possibilities within him as a boy who continues to struggle, and advance, for the sake of becoming someone.
The symbol of every training day in the life of the hero Cú Chulainn. For that reason, he also possesses his memories of the Land of Shadows that he should not have personally experienced yet during the time he called himself Sétanta. The time he actually visited the Land of Shadows was after when he earned the fame of being “Culann’s savage dog (Cú Chulainn)” by battling Culann’s watchdog. It is an incident that happened after he stepped forth as the hero Cú Chulainn.
In addition, his teacher Scáthach - the Land of Shadows’ landlady and the strongest spearwoman - continued to call him “Sétanta” like it was natural.
“I don’t think I’m really shrinking away because of that.” Such was the comment from the hero Sétanta himself.
Sétanta clearly remembers his training days in the Land of Shadows. Although it is not clear when it is about his other memories concerning “his future”, it seems he is generally aware of his recorded historical facts.
However, different from the boy Alexander who materialized with Saint Graph conditions similar to his own, Sétanta does not completely accept his future, saying “Although I don’t know whether it’s because of recorded history, human history, or whatever…” “My future is my alone.” “Medb? I was killed by her or something? No way!” To him, Medb is someone he will be ready to take on.Fate/Grand Order Arcade - Sétanta's profile - translated by Kinalvin
===Appearance===
Although he knows that he will eventually grow taller, it seems that in the end, Sétanta is worrying about the fact that “My materialized self is still small.”
===Personality===
A naive feral boy. Bright and active. Sétanta acts before worrying about things. However, because of the education he received thoroughly from his foster father Fergus and his teacher Scáthach, he also possesses the aspect of an honours student who properly abides by the courtesy that should be displayed towards one’s superiors and adults… But he is free-spirited when no one is looking.
Towards his Master, Sétanta treats them like a familiar friend. Towards someone with an age close to his, this is his best way of dealing with someone as far as he is concerned.
Sétanta does not particularly have a wish he wants to make on the Holy Grail. Because he knows that no one can grant his wish of “I must become the strongest hero”, except himself.

====Fae Round Table Domain: Avalon le Fae====
It is implied that the fairy who Odin possessed 6,000 years ago and went by the alias Grímr the Wise was the British Lostbelt version of Sétanta. He is described as a mischievous 14-year-old boy with a sword, and when Habetrot later meets Cú Chulainn Caster she thinks he is Grímr.

==Abilities==
The Crimson Codex claims that Setanta has as much ferocity as a Berserker.
===Combat===
He does most of his fighting with a wooden quarterstaff that he uses with great skill and can even call back to his hand at will.
Setanta is fully capable of fighting multiple opponents comparable to him in strength simultaneously, as shown when he held his own against Karna and Arjuna. He is not only able to exchange blows with them, but even prevent Arjuna from using his Noble Phantasm at one point by hitting him before he can invoke its true name. In the Fate/Samurai Remnant collab, he is summoned as a Masterless Stray Servant. However, he can still fight Miyamoto Iori, Ritsuka Fujimaru, and Yamato Takeru simultaneously. Once Iori proves able to fight evenly with Setanta, the latter recognizes that it was a bad move to take on so many of them at once. Iori praises him as well, saying he really put up a fight against multiple Servants. As he explains, Setanta sweeps through the battlefield evading certain death many times. Setanta is eventually defeated for good.
===Skills===
====Class Skills====
*Magic Resistance (B Rank): Cancels spells with a chant below three verses. Difficult to be affected against magecraft on the level of greater magecraft and Greater Rituals.
*Divinity (B Rank): Sétanta, who is considered a child of the sun god Lugh, possesses the aptitude of a Divine Spirit.
====Personal Skills====
*Knight of the Red Branch (B Rank): Sétanta is strongly aware in particular that he himself is a member of “the Knights of the Red Branch”, a knight order where Ulster’s brave and wild knights congregate.
*Hound-Slayer (A→A+ Rank (Upgrade)): The anecdote of his childhood days where Sétanta was called Culann’s dog - namely, “Cú Chulainn” - transformed into a Skill. A subspecies of the Beast-Slayer Skill. Demonstrates a special attack performance towards animals.
*Shadow Land Arms Mastery (B+ Rank): The days of training brought about by the Land of Shadows’ landlady - Scáthach - had tempered Sétanta’s mind and body and allowed him to reach completion as the peerless hero Cú Chulainn. Sétanta possesses this Skill because his current Saint Graph’s mind and body is from the time of his training days (specifically, just before the end of his training). In the case that he truly materializes as the hero Cú Chulainn, he will no longer possess this Skill, but instead will possess the Noble Phantasm Gáe Bolg. (In other words, a situation where the materialized hero Cú Chulainn does not possess either this Skill or the Noble Phantasm Gáe Bolg should be essentially impossible.)
===Noble Phantasm===
Sétanta's Noble Phantasm is Cruaidín Sétanta.
