Artoria Pendragon
Identity: Saber, King of Knights, Wielder of Excalibur
Background: Artoria Pendragon, Class Name Saber, is one of the main characters of Fate/Zero. Better known as Arthur Pendragon and King Arthur, who is regarded as a male in history, she is the "Once and Future King" and a legendary hero of Britain known as the King of Knights. Despairing at the violent end to her Kingdom, Artoria called out to the World asking for a miracle to save Britian. With the planet being accepting of the end of civilisation, the Counter Force is not and, seeing her potential use, answers Artoria's call. In exchange for the fulfilment of her wish, Artoria's soul would belong to the Counter Force, becoming a Counter Guardian in service to Humanity instead of a Heroic Spirit. Willing to accept any price, Artoria agrees, but unknowingly falls into an infinite loop of hell where there can be no salvation. Stopped still in time and space on the Hill of Camlann, Artoria was summoned to every age and all eras from the abyss of death, pursuing the Holy Grail countless times as a [Servant] in order to complete the contract she has with the Counter Force, granting her wish to redo the Day of Selection where she pulled Caliburn from the stone, even if that would deny her existence and erase all her battles and achievements.
