Charlotte Corday (Caster)

A Servant who underwent a surprise class change to a swimsuit...or rather, a stage magician's Spirit Origin. Her class may be Caster, but she can't do a single Caster-like thing. She can, however, pull doves out of thin air. The doves are just non-biological ether bodies, but they sure look like doves.

Other than during battle, her clumsiness hasn't changed.

She practices every day in hopes of one day pulling off a graceful magic show in front of Master and an audience.

Height/Weight: 166cm, 43kg

Origin: History

Region: France

Alignment: Chaotic-Summer

Sub-Attribute: Human

Gender: Female

She wears glasses in one of her Ascensions on the advice of Osakabehime, who said they can boost your intelligence.

Despite undergoing a drastic class change from Assassin to Caster, she's really not all that different. She was a little nervous about exposing so much skin in her new outfit, but hearing several people say she had nothing to worry about helped her gather her courage. It's not clear even to her why she became a stage magician, but the applause she received the first time she pulled a dove out of a silk hat made her think she might just have found her calling.

(She would later feel differently after a depressing episode wherein she could barely shuffle a deck of cards.)

Magic Show Field: EX

A variation on Territory Creation. Corday constructs an environment suitable for performing stage magic. It also helps make up for her lack of technical skill, as does her...mysterious angel friend, who can cover up just about any mistake she makes.

Create Magic Goods C+

A variation on Item Construction. The higher this skill's rank, the more things one can instantly create to aid with her stage magic. However, as Corday is still learning the basics of being a stage magician, she can only make items for fairly simple tricks.

Illusionist (Imposter): C+

An illusion that relies on pure skill rather than magecraft. Occasionally, a truly talented practitioner will acquire the Genuine version. This skill makes its targets see, and sometimes experience, things that can't be seen, or even cannot possibly be real. Of course, since Corday basically fell into being a stage magician, her skills pale in comparison to other, more talented Heroic Spirits of this sort.

Haphazard Show Planning: A

Even when Corday cobbles her shows together with practically nothing in the way of planning, they tend to go great for some reason. The audience finds itself willing to overlook a few mistakes, and generally goes home satisfied.

Stage Magician Angel: EX

Corday's...mysterious angel friend compensates for any mistakes she might make. Really, when you think about it, this angel is the strangest part of all of this... Even Corday agrees. The angel can lower the audience's guard, enhance their suspension of disbelief, and keep them entertained...and scarily enough, it can do those things just as well in battle too.

『La Féerie d'une Nuit』

Rank: C++

NP Type: Anti-Personnel

Range: 1 - 5

Maximum Mobilizations: 100

To Be Applauded Would Be a Dream Come True.

A magic show that combines illusion with offense. Usually, Corday's rudimentary technique would only enable this NP to achieve D-rank destruction and E-rank illusions. However, when combined with her skills and her...mysterious angel friend, it's possible for it to become a truly fearsome attack.

Though still somewhat embarrassed by how much attention her new swimsuit draws, Corday has decided that this summer will be the one where she makes her move on Master. Her personality may not have changed much, but now that she's no longer scared of rejection, she's also being more aggressive, which has led some Servants to be extremely wary of her.

She learned how to do stage magic from a shady, dapper old bartender, and a mysterious centaur sage. While she may not have much natural aptitude for it, with a great deal of hard work, she's reached a point where she can call herself a stage magician with a straight face.

It was truly a fateful encounter. On one side, the Grand Duchess of one of the largest countries in the world. On the other, an ordinary girl who grew up in a French abbey. Although these two would never have met in history, not only did they meet as Heroic Spirits, they hit it off so well they decided to form an alliance!

"I know a lot's happened in your normal Spirit Origin, but now that you have a swimsuit (stage magician) one, what's the harm in going after what you want?"

Once the French girl gave in to the imp's temptation, there was no turning back. Little did the Grand Duchess suspect at the time quite how much she would later regret awakening what she would come to refer to as "the monster."
