Lancer (Leonidas)

==Summary==
Lancer is a Lancer-class Servant able to be summoned by Ritsuka Fujimaru in the Grand Orders of Fate/Grand Order, first appearing in the Septem Singularity as an enemy Servant.
Lancer's True Name is Leonidas I, the King of Sparta, the country that became the etymology of Spartan discipline. Leonidas reigned as the king of Sparta, but he had a difficult time administrating the nation because Sparta became the land which produced "muscle-brains".
He was famous for the Battle of Thermopylae, where he and his 300 men confronted the invading 100,000 Persians.

===Noble Phantasm===
Thermopylae Enomotia: Guardian of the Hot Gates: The Noble Phantasm of Leonidas. Thermopylae Enomotia is the reenactment of the legendary 300 people in the Battle of Thermopylae against the invading 100,000 Persians to protect the land of Sparta, the battle which engraved Leonidas' name in history. Each one of the Spartans possesses C-E rank Endurance and are summoned to not only protect their king, but also the latter's master. Thermopylae Enomotia has Leonidas' Spartans defend against enemy attacks before mounting a counter-attack in return, the power of which depends on how many have endured the attack before. In other words, the more people that defended against the enemy attack, the stronger the counter-attack will become.
===Class Skills===
Magic Resistance: Grants protection against magical effects. Differently from the Resistance effect that merely rejects Magical Energy, this ability cancels the spells altogether. Leonidas' C-Rank Magic Resistance will cancel any magical spell below two-verses but will falter in the face of High-Thaumaturgy and Greater Rituals.
===Personal Skills===
Battle Continuation: is the strength of vitality for predicaments. Also, the ability to withdraw from combat and reach allied territory alive after being defeated. Leonidas' A-Rank Battle Continuation makes it possible for him to fight even with deadly injuries and will remain alive for as long as he does not receive a decisive fatal wound (i.e. having his heart or head completely destroyed).
Dignity of the Rearguards: A unique Skill that allows the holder to display more power the more disadvantageous the situation is (such as defensive battles and military withdrawals). Leonidas' name was engraved in history for fighting an overwhelmingly superior force with a tiny military force, and thus will only display his true power against overwhelming odds. Combined with the use of his Noble Phantasm, this can allow Leonidas to even defend against an Anti-Army Noble Phantasm.
Warcry of the Warrior: A morale-boosting skill. Similar to the breathing techniques in karate, by way of this warcry he carries out a moral coordination.
