**Berserker of "Daybreak"** ("黎明"のバーサーカー, *"Reimei" no Bāsākā*?) is the Berserker-class Servant of Marina Ayanokouji of the Daybreak Faction in the Great Holy Grail War of *Fate/chaos revival*.

## Profile

### Identity

Berserker's True Name is that of **Kiyohime** (清姫?), the **Dragon Princess of Hidaka River** (日高川の竜姫, *Hidakagwa no Ryūhime*?). She is the protagonist of the eponymous "*Legend of Kiyohime*". The legend speaks of love and hate and of hope and despair; of how a woman so driven mad by the betrayal of her loved one, brought him retribution in the form of death.

Kiyohime was the daughter of a certain village's mayor. On one particular night, her father welcomed an esteemed guest in the form of the handsome priest Anchin. Kiyohime, who was present for his welcome, immediately fell in love with the man. During their conversation, she stated offhandedly that he was handsome beyond words and her father joked that perhaps she would marry him. Taking this literally, she ventured into Anchin's room that evening and wooed him. However, Anchin rejected her but promised to return to follow up on her oath. Anchin proceeded to leave the next day, returning to his temple and forgetting completely about his promise. She waited for three seasons (quite possibly more). The resentful emotions that arose from within her burnt so hotly that she metamorphosed into a seething Dragon.

Chasing down her lover, Anchin sought shelter inside the Bell of Dōjō-ji but to no avail. The bell provided no barrier to her fury as she coiled around the bell and squeezed it. The heat emitted from her body melted the bell and they both melted into the Hidaka River. Following this, Dōjō-ji Temple did not have a bell for one hundred years until the monks decided to make a new bell, however, this bell was cursed to wail sorrowfully every time it rang.

### Appearance

If one can bring themselves to ignore the horns adorning her crown, Berserker is a woman of unparalleled beauty. From her outer appearance alone, she seems to be a girl around the ages of thirteen to sixteen, somewhere in her junior high years should she be assessed using the education system of Japan. She normally has beautiful waist-length blue hair and piercing yellow eyes but should she employ too much of her draconic powers, her hair transforms into a glistening silver while her eyes morph into an incinerating crimson.

She deigns to wear a traditional Japanese kimono, adorned with floral designs on a primarily light red backdrop. Over that, she wears a verdant *haori*, the same color as her beloved *naginata*. The *haori* also has floral designs imprinted on it albeit more sparingly than her kimono is.

### Personality

Berserker calls herself a "*self-styled girl who lives for love*". She is kind and caring to everyone as per the menu of her job as the village mayor's daughter while she was alive. Her manners and behavior patterns are all exceptionally well-groomed. She considers girls in love to be her soul sisters as is the case of her Master who harbors a secret crush on Peyton Sutlynn Velvet, whom Berserker had never met before (as she was summoned after Marina's meeting with Peyton in the Clock Tower when the Daybreak Faction were finishing preparations for the conflict ahead).

As they were in the same faction, Berserker could not avoid meeting Shirou Emiya and from her perspective, she immediately labeled him as the reincarnation of her lover from life. Because of this, Berserker cannot help but fall in love with him despite Shirou already having multiple women going after him. However, her jealousy for Shirou's "harem" is usually kept under control by her Master so she is still rather amiable with the Servants of her fellow faction.

### Relationships

"*A gentleman thief, is it? My, if I happened to come across you in life, I may have instead fallen for you and burned you to death...*"

Assassin of Daybreak
"*Why, you are a Dragon too? I must say that I cannot hope to match one like you. I am merely a copy.*"

"*Ohh... So you are the wily woman that stole my Anchin-sama from me. Shall I give you a taste of hell?*"
Lancer of Twilight
"*I sense a monster in you but why deny it? Why must you make yourself suffer more? Simply take control of the monster within and force it into order with your strong will.*"
Marina Ayanokouji
"*Hmm? Master, you're having love troubles as well? Would you like to talk to me about it?*"
Shirou Emiya
"*Ahhh, Anchin-sama... Dear me, Anchin-sama, since when did you gather so many women to your side...?*"
## Role

### *Fate/chaos revival*

Aboard the cruise ship *Anthem of the Seas* as it was sailing from Southampton to Rome, Marina Ayanokouji, along with the majority of the Daybreak Faction Masters, summon their Servants with Marina summoning Berserker using a piece of the Bell of Dōjō-ji. The ship wasn't due to arrive in Rome for another three days so Berserker, as well as the other Servants, spent their first days in the world enjoying random excitement on the ship.
