Saber Artoria

## Summary

Arthur Pendragon, also known as King Arthur, is a legendary hero of Britain and the "Once and Future King." Despite being historically regarded as male, Arthur is depicted as a female in certain adaptations. She acquired the title "King of Knights" and wielded the sword Caliburn, which was later destroyed. However, she obtained Excalibur and Avalon from the Lady of the Lake.

Arthur led Britain from the magnificent castle of Camelot, built with the aid of fairies upon the ruins of Londinium. As a feudal lord like her father, she became a king with numerous loyal knights, including the esteemed Knights of the Round Table. Her growth halted upon pulling the sword due to its magical properties, causing some knights to fear her as an ominous figure. Nonetheless, many praised her as divine, admiring her immortality. In battle, she epitomized a god of war, always leading from the front and vanquishing any foe that dared to oppose her. Her dragon-like form in human guise made her virtually invincible, securing a decade of victories and twelve triumphant battles during her reign as king.She never faltered or suffered defeat, remaining resolute and steadfast in her duties.
During her lifetime, Artoria concealed her true gender, assuming the name Artorius and presenting herself as a boy. Only Merlin and her adopted family were privy to her secret. Even in her dreams, she received teachings from Merlin, denying her rest even during sleep.

In the main Fate/Stay Night series, Artoria is summoned as a servant by Shirou Emiya to participate in the 5th Holy Grail War. Together, they engage in fierce battles, striving to claim the coveted Holy Grail.

**Stamina**: Very High

**Intelligence:** Saber is a highly skilled swordswoman, renowned for her mastery of the blade, making her a formidable adversary even against the mightiest heroes. Her exceptional swordplay places her among the elite few who can lay claim to superior swordsmanship. In addition to her prowess on the battlefield, Saber's accomplishments extend beyond combat. At the tender age of fourteen, she ascended to the throne, becoming the ruler of a prosperous nation. Her political acumen and leadership abilities are evident as she effectively leads armies into battle and governs a significant portion of Britain during her reign. Furthermore, she possesses knowledge of magic, having been trained as Merlin's apprentice in her youth. Her familiarity with numerous European Heroic Spirits allows her to quickly recognize and identify Noble Phantasms such as Cú Chulainn's and Diarmuid Ua Duibhne's with ease.

**Weaknesses:** Saber adheres strictly to the chivalric code, never resorting to underhanded or pragmatic tactics. However, her sixth sense can be deceived by unfamiliar experiences. Unlike other Servants, Saber possesses a physical body and lacks the ability to assume a spirit form (although this distinction does not apply in the world of Fate/Grand Order). Deep within her, she carries a burden of self-loathing and regrets over her actions and perceived failures as the King of Britain. These emotional vulnerabilities can be exploited to provoke her or undermine her mental state. Additionally, if she loses the full functionality of one of her hands, her ability to wield Excalibur to its maximum potential is hindered. This limitation reduces the range of Excalibur to that of an Anti-Unit Noble Phantasm and significantly weakens its overall power.
