Assassin (Fate/Crossover - Blackarachnia)

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

*"What I look like is only half the story... what I am is a lot more complicated."* - Blackarachnia

## Profile

### Identity

Assassin's true identity is **Blackarachnia**, a former Autobot who was mutated into a partially-organic Transformer with spider-like abilities and seeks the means to cure herself, and later to create other partially-organic Transformers. She is based on her counterpart in Beast Wars.

She was once an Autobot with the name of Elita-1, but after an incident on a strange planet, she was mutated into a half-Cybertronian and half-spider being. She defected to the Decepticons' side with the hope of finding a cure for her cursed techno-organic form.

She's currently stuck in an unknown jungle with Waspinator, where she then becomes the leader of the Predacons.

### Appearance

Blackarachnia has purple skin with a black chest, legs, arms, waist and shoulders. Her noticable trait is a bulbous spider-like abdomen and two protruding legs on her back. Underneath the black and golden helmet is her exposed brain which is black outside and purple inside. She has two sets of eyes and four on her pelvic plate.

### Personality

When she was Elita she was joyful, kind, teasing, loyal, brave, intelligent and flirty. When she became Blackarachnia she became cunning, manipulative, rather cruel, rather devious and possesses a characteristic black humor. But all the time, we always have a part of Elita in her, as Optimus says, she is always very intelligent, teasing and flirty.

Blackarachnia acts differently around robots of the opposite "sex" depending on faction; she's biting and sarcastic towards the Decepticons, but seductive and manipulative towards the Autobots. However, these appear to be but shells worn by a being who desperately wants to be normal again. This desire, however, makes Blackarachnia her own worst enemy, as it's nearly led to her own death.

## Abilities

Blackarachnia is physically one of the weaker Decepticons encountered in the series, possibly due to her Autobot origins. However, she still form her hands into blasters and bladed weapons and possesses above average agility even for a Decepticon. Her shoulder mounted spider legs can deliver Cybervenom stings to her enemies, and she can also use these legs to simultaneously download the abilities of her enemies.

Due to her mutant techno-organic form, she can use her newfound cyber venom to paralyze her enemies in addition to her natural ability to download and mimic other Transformers' traits and weaponry for a limited amount of time with a simple touch. Hope nobody tells Lockdown.

Blackarachnia is also extremely intelligent in the field of genetics and technorganics, as a direct result of her attempts at finding a cure for her condition.

### Noble Phantasm

#### **Cyber Venom; "Biological Poison of Spider's Vemon"**

This Noble Phantasm is a dangerous organic venom from a planet inhabited by the venomous spiders that roam the land. Cyber Venom can affect the person immediately and causes them paralysis and pain.

Blackarachnia recieved the venom after being infected and mutated with her spider disease on the Spider Planet. Blackarachnia acquired it when she was infected with her spider disease on the Spider Planet. She uses it to stun the Transformers that she bites, and then she feeds on the energon inside them. Her cyber venom can be fatal at high enough doses, which could pontentially kill the victim if a cure is not provided in time. The time it would take to kill a Cybertron would be approximately after 2 Mega-cycles.

Seeing as how Transformers are robotic lifeforms, regular venom should have absolutely no effect on them. It is possible that Cyber Venom functions more along the lines of a computer virus rather than the biological weapon that we consider to be venom.
