"I don't use this sword just to look cool, you know." - Kaguya Nanbu

## Profile

### Identity

Saber's true identity is Kaguya Nanbu, Kaguya is a princess in the world of Kagura Amahara, part of the Mugen Frontier. On her eighteenth birthday, she decides to undergo a cultural coming-of-age journey across the worlds of the Frontier. Her first stop is Lost Herenica, where she ends up making her way onto the wrecked ship called Mai Tierra, and lucks into figuring out the password to one of the crew quarters on the ship where she takes a nap, until she is discovered by Haken Browning and Aschen Brodel. After the two are hired to escort her back home, they eventually get involved in a conflict over the Frontier's very existence. During this adventure, she meets and befriends many friends, such as Reiji Arisu and KOS-MOS. In order to protect the worlds of the Frontier, Kaguya nearly sacrifices herself to close off the Kouki-Mon, the interdimensional Cross Gates that connect the worlds of the Frontier together, just as her mother did to protect her world from a war ten years ago. She was convinced not to by Haken, and she and their party eventually fought back against the Einst, the alien creatures setting the conflict into motion.

### Personality

Unlike Haken, Kaguya is a lot more pure-hearted, and often a little naive. As she is both extremely attractive and very glamorous, she tends to attract a lot of (male) attention wherever she goes.

## Abilities

Similar to Sanger Zonvolt, she refers to herself as "The Sword That Cleaves Evil". Her weapon is a large sword called the Goshiki Zankantou (Colossal Blade Type 5). with crescent-shaped blades that can be launched at the enemy and return. Kaguya is skilled with her giant "Colossal Blade Type-5" as well as the use of her inherited mystical arts.

### Skills

#### Class Skills

* Magic Resistance (B Rank): Saber is able to shrug off spells with a chant of two verses or below. Even when targeted with high-level thaumaturgy or Greater Rituals, it is hard for her to be affected.

#### Personal Skills

* Eye of the Mind (False) (C+ Rank): Saber's training in her school of fighting helps her use tactics in order to avoid danger that comes to her.

* Mental Pollution (E- Rank): When outside of battle, Servant Saber carries on as a sheltered, air-headed, naive, cow-boobed young woman, to the point where an opponent might assume (incorrectly) that this is not the same person.

* Mystic Figure (EX Rank): Saber's physique is legendary to the extent that it gives her the Mystic Eyes of Charm and Natural Body personal skills in one. This ability also serves as a distraction when she is fighting, negating the effect of any direct combat-related Personal Skills of anyone who is currently observing or battling her. The negation effect is guaranteed if the target is male, while a female target can either have her skills negated or the skill Mad Enhancement (rank C) is applied to Saber's opponent.

* Pioneer of the Stars (B Rank): A unique Skill given to heroes that became turning points in human history. All difficult voyages and challenges which are considered "impossible" turn into "events that can be realized". Rank lowered to B because her accomplishments were made as part of an ensemble.

* Battle Continuation (A Rank): Makes it possible to fight even with deadly injuries and can remain alive so long as one does not receive a decisive fatal wound.

* Jinraku Tengen (EX Rank): Servant Saber's school of fighting. A system of attack and defense that uses swords, projectiles, and wire. The boost this skill gives depends on which class Saber is summoned as (Knowledge of Respect and Harmony (C) if summoned in the Saber class).

### Noble Phantasm

#### **Goshiki Zankantou (Colossal Blade Type 5)**

Saber's sword. It houses multiple crescent-shaped blades she can manipulate to herd an opponent to a spot where she can decisively strike. Its rank increases by one if its wielder is summoned into the Saber class.

#### **Nanbu Ittouryu Gekka Bijin**

Kaguya does a series of slashes with her sword and cresent blades that knocks the opponent into the air. She leaps into the air after them and twirls around them several times, combining her attacks with the crescents, and finishes with one massive chop.

#### **Soul of Steel**

An amulet containing the prayers of Saber's ancestors. Boosts Saber's stats depending on the class she is summoned as.

#### **Fujisakura**

If pushed to the brink, Saber can summon the Fujisakura, activating it to negate all space-time techniques and thaumaturgy in a wide area. It requires a lot of prana to activate, and will likely cost Saber her life if she uses it without her Master's assistance. Becomes slightly easier to cast when she is summoned in the Caster class, as her Class Skill will help greatly in the invocation of this Noble Phantasm.
