==Role==
===Fate/Grand Order===
Drawn into Chaldea's Simulator, the remnants of Ábartach's soul manifest as a curse residing within the simulator.
==Abilities==
When Ábartach first manifests, Mash Kyrielight notes that he far surpasses the NPC data in Chaldea's combat simulations and that those readings shouldn't even be possible.
===Combat===
Ábartach is shown fighting Yagyuu Munenori on equal ground. Regrettably, Munenori was unable to settle their duel before the Fairy King left. Apparently, he was dissatisfied with Munenori's swordsmanship because he wasn't a dual wielder. Munenori considers Ábartach quite a formidable foe and claims that his swordsmanship is something to behold. He says that no Human could make use of such technique.
Lancer Diarmuid Ua Duibhne fights Ábartach for a while, until Diarmuid eventually confesses that he is unable to finish Ábartach off with his current Saint Graph. Mash Kyrielight also states that Ábartach shows no signs of disappearing, and that it'll be fiendishly difficult to defeath him. Diarmuid uses Gáe Buidhe but it has no effect. Ábartach wishes to duel with swords alone so no other weapon is capable of laying him to rest. It isn't until Diarmuid transforms into his Saber Class Saint Graph that he defeats the Fairy King.
