Assassin (Fate/Crossover - T-elos)

Assassin (アサシン, *Asashin*) is the servant of ??? in the ??? Holy Grail War.

"A simple doll that doesn't even understand its reason for existence. To ensure that I continue to exist as myself... KOS-MOS... I'm going to destroy you." - T-elos

## Profile

### Identity

Assassin's true identity is T-elos, a Mary Magdalene battle android like KOS-MOS, introduced as an antagonist in Xenosaga Episode III: Also sprach Zarathustra.

T-elos is meant to replace KOS-MOS but, oddly enough, is unknown to most of Vector Industries. She is an anti-Gnosis weapon developed by the Galaxy Federation as part of the Zohar Project, and is essentially the Federation's trump card. T-elos has an intense and hostile rivalry with KOS-MOS.

### Personality

T-elos seems to possess a sapient personality unlike KOS-MOS' robotic personality. T-elos seems to be left-handed whereas KOS-MOS seems to be right-handed. T-elos may be ambidextrous as she fights primarily with the blade on her left forearm, and draws and fires her pistol with her right hand. Like Roth Mantel, T-elos seems to have a very confident, assertive and rather arrogant personality.

## Abilities

To destroy her targets, T-elos relies primarily on her physical strength and energy generation. Like KOS-MOS, T-elos includes several integrated weapons.

T-elos is also occasionally seen utilizing a pistol referred to as "Magdalene-16". In one battle with KOS-MOS, she utilizes a triple-gatling gun seemingly identical to the one used several times by KOS-MOS.

In pitched physical battles, T-elos demonstrated the ability to perform highly-complex and difficult attacks and maneuvers. An example of this is using her leg to deflect a kick by KOS-MOS, and then utilize the same leg to deliver a punishing kick of her own. Another example of this is when the two met in mid-air; T-elos was able to deliver a clothesline to KOS-MOS, grab her arm and land on her feet with KOS-MOS locked in a standing arm-bar with her leg around KOS-MOS' neck.

In battle with other party members prior to her final exchange with KOS-MOS, T-elos demonstrated the ability to easily dodge or deflect any attack made against her by other party members. In one instance, she managed to catch Ziggy's fist, heft him into the air and deliver a standing side-kick which sent him hurtling several yards. In the same fight, she managed to deflect an attack by Shion while simultaneously ensnaring Jin's sword with her leg. This demonstrates her high speed, reflexes, and capability for complicated battle maneuvers.

### Noble Phantasm

#### **U-TENERITAS**

The second is a Phase Transfer Cannon located in her chest called U-TENERITAS. This weapon manifests as a globe of red energy that requires several seconds to build up before being projected at her opponent. Once a target is struck by this weapon T-elos activates its detonation by pressing the violet panel that resides in her helmet over her forehead. T-elos demonstrated the ability to fire blasts of varying degrees of power.

The first demonstration of this capability was when T-elos was demonstrated to military observers on Fifth Jerusalem at the CAT Testing Facility. T-elos was able to destroy several dozen Gnosis at once.

The second time this weapon was utilized it was enough to completely disable KOS-MOS.
