==Profile==
===Background===
====Fate/EXTRA CCC world====
Her real name is . Although she was born as the daughter of the head, she was bedridden until she was approximately 14 years old due to her illness. She learnt Spiritron-hacking from fellow worshippers. Afterwards she reformed the Tachikawa Eiten School, rapidly increasing the number of believers over the internet and became the leader of the cult. Kiara Sesshouin saved many lost people with the doctrine of Tachikawa-ryu as her foundation. The Church also acknowledges Kiara Sesshouin as a modern prophet, due to the opinion of a certain Cardinal; one of the candidates for the next Pope.Fate/EXTRA CCC - Chapter 4: Anesthesia Fortress -Sick/Home Sink-
However the virtual religious cult no longer exists. She is the last officiating monk of the barely surviving . All of the believers who followed Kiara committed suicide, men and women adored her so much that they killed themselves. People who fell deeply in love, people who were addicted to maltreating her, people who were dependent on conversation with her, people who hated her to death, people who lost themselves in carnality. All with the same result. Suicide. Even offline, people who got involved with her would almost invariably commit suicide. Even virtual police investigators and intelligence operatives from the got taken in. According to Julius B. Harwey, the intelligence operative died in order to save her from her adherents who were going to kill her and that individual was antisocial, and not the type to pursue women.
After saving many people, she was betrayed by those she saved. She saved many people, but those same people trampled her good intentions underfoot. She was betrayed by human beings countless times. Yet she never abandoned her resolve to give them salvation. Betrayed by both faith and people, she was slandered as a murderer. It's also a fact that she was the cause of mass suicide and hostilities. Consequently, with the sponsorship of the Western European Plutocracy, she became an internationally wanted digital criminal. She was pursued by both the Holy Church and the Western European Plutocracy. There are people who defended her, but the Plutocracy had the backing of the Holy Church. The Holy Church decided against apprehending Kiara because she was an eyesore, they acknowledged her as the greatest enemy to the preservation of their own faith. Leonardo B. Harwey guesses that the church could not overlook being passed over while some woman in the Orient showed up and got treated like a prophet.
She is also a master who participated in the Moon Cell Holy Grail War, for her own desire in order to save people. She is the reason that BB was unleashed, when she interfered with Sakura Matou's program. She met BB before everybody in the Moon Cell Holy Grail War. She was captured by BB when she was imprisoned by the black noise on the near side. She made a peace treaty pact with BB, BB would spare Kiara's life as long as Kiara never antagonized BB. Thus she was confined to the school. Kiara was being observed by BB, so she couldn’t say anything that would suggest BB's existence.
====EMIYA Alter's world====
While no details are given, it is mentioned that this incarnation of EMIYA Alter hunted and killed her, but also a lot of her innocent followers, leading to his cold and result-oriented demeanor.Fate/Grand Order: Epic of Remnant - SE.RA.PH. - Deep-Sea Cyber-Nirvana, Act IV: The Sinking Beauty (3/4)
===Appearance===
She is Japanese and is in her mid to late twenties. Her attire resembles that of a Japanese Buddhist nun; she wears a tight dress with a slit up the left side exposing her leg and a large white habit similar to a hood with a large gold necklace wrapped around it. She claims that her habit of having a slit up the side is because everybody in the school are so distinctive and she wanted to take a risk of youthful indiscretion. Even Gawain considers her to have an amazing body. She also appears to wear a pink underwear. According to the side material book, Kiara doesn't cut her hair but keep it tuckled under her habit.
After consuming Passionlip, Meltryllis, BB and Sakura her appearance changes to that of a demon. In her new form, Kiara's habit now hangs from the two massive black and pink lined curved horns extending from the sides of her head. Her black hair (with pink tips) now flows in twisting locks behind her and on her forehead lays three vertical dots similar to those of Savior. Her attire has become that of a revealing long white coat with belled sleeves and thigh high pink boots. According to Kinoko Nasu, her demon outfit was specifically requested by him to incorporate a "naked apron" theme. In Fate/Grand Order, her final ascensions' outfit has her habit, sleeves, and cloak extended with the sleeves now have a design resembling multiple hands extending upward. She also wears a pair of golden rings with a hanging tassel. Her Demon Pillar outfit has slightly different design with the color scheme appears to be her white-pink outfit flipped inside out and her horns now are those of the Demon Pillar.
===Personality===
Dressed in a nun’s attire, she is an air-head ero-older-sister type. Despite her troublesome tendency to brush off what others say, her attitude and behavior is even more suggestive than that of the Alter Egos. Truth be told, her sexual desire is beyond her control.
Although she is wearing a nun’s clothing, it’s still easy to tell from the lines of her body that she is an unmatched beauty of a woman. By the way, she doesn’t cut her hair (tonsure) and instead just keeps it tucked under her nun veil.
She refers to herself using “私” [わたし]. She usually refers to others using “皆さん” [みなさん], and usually adds -san at the end of peoples’ names.
She is essentially a proper lady with a neat and tidy way of speaking. She has a soft personality, and a chaste set of values, but when she speaks, oddly enough her words carry a hint of sensuality. Her personality is introverted, timid, and active.
She is very gentle and mild-mannered, but also positive and motivated at the same time. It may seem as though she has a weak constitution, but she is energetic and full of life. She is deeply compassionate toward others. She is deeply considerate and is good at grasping the reason or truth. She can read almost everyone’s feelings and correctly understand their position or suffering.
Both on the outside and the inside, she is a talented woman overflowing with graceful beauty… She seems wonderful, but at the same time she is a bit absent-minded, and seems to have a lot of knowledge about sex… rather than “Holy Woman” she would be more appropriately labeled as a “kind older sister.” While she has trouble controlling her poison-tongued servant Andersen, she remains an upright character that never loses her smile.
====Devil's Bodhisvatta====
The horns jutting from her head are devil horns. This shows that she is the enemy of the enlightened (buddhas). She is the embodiment of self-love, and prioritizes pleasure over everything else. Her pleasure is achieved by using human lives and treating them as sustenance. She is a walking disaster for man and beast alike.
Those who met this woman were touched by her great kindness and would devotedly follow her as though she has cast a spell upon them. After that, due to her great desire to be loved, she would (foolishly) use them to indulge in her sexual desires. The problem is that the more you fulfill your sexual desires, the less satisfying it becomes to do so.
This woman has no desire for dilute, unsatisfying “pleasure.” Her followers would fall into despair because she no longer showed any concern for them, “She won’t love us ever again.” and thus they end their lives. In the end, the victims had their bodies and everything they had completely devoured by her.
She is certainly guilty, but since all her followers who committed suicide were thankful to her, she was unable to be charged and prosecuted. It goes without saying, her followers were simply mistakenly appreciative of her, or were deceived. Her followers were vaguely aware of the fact that she was not a saint, but actually a devil, but they were unable to escape from her devilish grasp, and found their lives degenerating.
A similar situation is also true for Kirei Kotomine, although he takes things in a somewhat different direction. Kotomine recognized himself as evil, and decided that evil was appropriate for him, thus he strayed from the path of human morals. This woman (a Demonic Bodhisattva) considers all her actions, regardless of what, to be good. Quite the haughty evil spirit.
This evil spirit of a woman lies to herself about nothing, but soaks her words with lies to entrap everyone around her as food; their lives expended completely for her own sake. The absoluteness of her ego, her unwavering attitude towards everything; to a regular person it might seem as though she is on the border of enlightenment. If there were a specific reason that her followers called her a “saint,” it would be because at this characteristic.

Caster sends both Hakuno and the Servant to two different locations.Fate/EXTRA CCC - Chapter 7: The Depths of Holy Maiden - Anima Ataraxia
====Defeat====
"What's the meaning.. What's the meaning of this..? Even though winning or losing doesn't matter as I've finally obtained the utmost pleasure.. Yet still, why is it so painful.."
Hakuno confronts Kiara in her Heaven's Hole form. To her surprise, Hakuno's Servant arrives to fight. Normally, no normal human could stand against her but she lost to Hakuno due to the girls that were absorbed, wanting to protect their love for Hakuno and resisted inside her body. Caster scorn her, calling her an idiot that charged right into the fight with no regards to that one weakness. She dies saying that she was not defeated by a Hero nor a Savior but by women like her.
In her final moment before fading away, Kiara asks Andersen about one thing that she never managed to understand: the difference between the two loves (Ai and Koi). 
===Fate/EXTRA CCC Fox Tail===

Koha-Ace XP
===Codecasts===
 is a Codecast skill that allows her to access someone's Secret Garden. The five meditations are meditation on impurity, meditation on compassion, meditation on cause and effect, meditation on separation from the world, and mindful breathing meditation. It finds the openings to a person's heart, and exposing the backwaters that the person themselves is not even aware of. It’s a basic meditation method to renounce worldly desires. It's more like exposing the affected areas than seeing through it. The Thesis of the Still Heart is medical software. It finds the patient's injuries, and cleanses the stagnant areas. The shield is a wall of the heart that guards secrets. Therefore, if we uncover the secrets, there will no longer be any meaning in protecting them. Kiara compares the codecast to a vaccine, if the wall of the heart is an illness, the Thesis of the Still Heart is a vaccine to treat it. Although Julius believes it to be more like a virus. Kiara said that it is ineffective for AI such as Sakura because only human beings can read emotions and they can't understand emotions.
It is also the creator of her other Codecast that allows people to enter the hearts of others. It is a dangerous codecast, since the network became the basis of human society, this power to control others through it is essentially the power to rule the world. It is the secret technique of the Tachikawa Eiten school, Ten Thousand Colored Stagnation is a codecast that is considered the greatest crime in virtual history. A forbidden art that drove many people mad and destroyed them.
==Forms and Alternate Versions==
===Heaven's Hole===
, an alternate form of Kiara Sessyoin, is the true boss of Fate/EXTRA CCC.Fate/Grand Order material V - Kiara Sessyoin Profile, translated by Konchew at Reddit.
Its formal name is . She is a new god descended from the Covetous Mother Goddess. Only Saver, who has by all rights mastered the esoteric ability to completely turn off his sexual desire, is able to match up to this woman incarnate.
====Abilities====
By absorbing Passionlip, Meltryllis, BB, and Sakura Matou to form her core, taking complete control of the Moon Cell, and Hans Christian Andersen pouring all his Noble Phantasm into her, Kiara Sessyoin metamorphosed into a divine Demon, a similar existence to a True Daemon. The Mara sprouting from her head are that of a Tenma. In other words, it signifies the fact that this person is the enemy of Buddha. The embodiment of narcissism prioritizing pleasure above all. That process where other people are made use of and preyed upon is a calamity that brings ruin to men and animals alike. By taking the power of various goddesses as the Alter Egos had done, Kiara became a composite being. Although this is Self-Modification on a level impossible for a human, Kiara is no human. She probably hadn't been a human for many years, ever since she left the mountain where she had grown up. When she did that, she was already a supernatural being, due to having devoured many humans by freely melting their souls with the Ten Thousand Colored Stagnation. While Kiara was reborn into the earth mother, accepting all the desires of humanity, she was also at the same time a sacrifice to all the desires of humanity. Her existence is similar to a certain man-made demon who had once been demonized and celebrated as a sacrifice to prove the evil of mankind.
Although Kiara had ascended to the position of a god, she ended up defeated by Hakuno Kishinami, a mere human, and their servant (Nero Claudius, No Name, Tamamo-no-Mae or Gilgamesh depending on the player's preferences) powered by the Mythological Mystic Code. Being regarded by Andersen as an omnipotent being, there surely was no reason for her to lose against them. Surprisingly, Hakuno just happened to be the only person she couldn't use her "omnipotence" against. Kiara had not only based her powers in BB and Sakura, but the Alter Egos as well. It was because those girls whom she had taken as her core kept opposing her desperately inside her to protect their own love that Kiara lost. She fought head-on all confidently while being unaware of her own weak points. Had she know this beforehand, Kiara claims that she would have just blown them away to some random realm, just to later destroy that realm alongside them.
Rather than using the mysterious effects that are privilege only to God's to attack, her primary method of attacking is using her hands. This is because according to her directly touching her opponent and having her opponent touch her is more pleasurable.
When comparing Kiara to other characters appearing in Fate/EXTRA and CCC, her power can be overshadowed. Against Amaterasu she'd be rather outclassed, as Arcueid Brunestud (Berserker) with her sanity restored is stated to be about the only one in those two games who is “capable of defeating the Golden White Face, no matter how small the chance might be,” thanks to being able to reduce the power of her opponents to a sixth of their usual. The scale of Kiara's existence is superior to that of her Beast III/R counterpart. and similar to Buddha's. However, if she were to face Buddha in battle, she'd be forced to withdraw, due to not possessing the skill Nega-Saver, which nullifies every skill of the Saver and Ruler class, among other things. 
Noble Phantasm:
Kiara's Noble Phantasm is Angra Mainyu/CCC. With this Anti-Planet Noble Phantasm, Kiara uses the world to masturbate. It is a vortex of pleasure that melts all sentient beings, and digests their “life” in an instant. While in reality it all happens in an instant, but it feels like an eternity of pleasure. Regardless of how different the structure of a beings intelligence may be, this vortex affects all without exception. It is not a Noble Phantasm that is limited to affect only those on Earth. The damage increases if certain conditions are met. If the target is of the opposite sex, the damage increases. The more intelligent a being is, the more damage it does. As far as the setting and lore are concerned, the Servant who would be hit with the least damage would be No Name, and Gilgamesh would be damaged the most.
The reason why this attack’s power, visuals, and scale are so huge is because reincarnated Kiara is a being similar to Buddha. People who devote their life to bringing salvation to Sattvas (living things) are referred to as Bodhisattvas. People who have attained moksha (liberation/release) and become Buddhas are also Bodhisattvas. A Bodhisattva is a god of universe scale and power, and can easily manage things on the scale of the Solar System.
====Gameplay====
