Stories
7Character details
A Servant, originally from the Scandinavian Lostbelt, who is completely separate from the Scáthach of Proper Human History. She is recognized as a god only in the Lostbelt, and her aspect as a queen is emphasized.
Scáthach-Skadi manifests many characteristics of Skadi, the Norse giantess and goddess of the mountains who shares an origin with the Celtic warrior Scáthach. Rather than seeing her as a version of Scáthach in whom aspects of Skadi are prominent, it may be more correct to say that she is Skadi who possesses certain of Scáthach's attributes.
Profile 1
Height/Weight: 162cm, 50kg
Origin: Norse Mythology, Celtic Mythology
Region: Europe
Alignment: Chaotic-Good
Sub-Attribute: Heaven
Gender: Female
The "chaotic" part of her alignment is something she herself claims. Apparently, she was dedicated to the social order of the Scandinavian Lostbelt, but this changed after she was summoned as a Heroic Spirit following her death.
Profile 2
In this manifestation, she has no interest in serving as a mentor to heroes. She also has no mastery of any martial arts. Unlike Lancer Scáthach, who was proud yet friendly, Scáthach-Skadi is prone to more callous statements, like: "Did I step on something?", "Ah, a tiny thing (humans)," and "Shall I love it? Or shall I kill it?". These serve to characterize her divine nature.
A mere sigh can create a blizzard. Living things seldom survive.
A smile can bring about eternal spring. Living things thrive and exult.
She sees little difference in either outcome.
Profile 3
The name Skadi means "one who harms" in Old Norse. According to the Poetic Edda's Grímnismál, she is the daughter of the abominable giant, Þjazi, and lived in the ancient mansion Þrymheimr with her father.
She is later married to Norse gods, so she is also called "the shining bride of the gods."
Skadi also goes by the name of Öndurguð (ski god) or Öndurdís (ski goddess). She was considered a master huntress of the mountains and an expert skiier.
Profile 4
In FGO, Scáthach and Skadi are not completely the same. Rather, they influence each other, and are in many senses intertwined. The fact that Lancer Scáthach has inherited Odin's Primordial Rune is likely a consequence of this mix (syncretism).
According to the Heimskringla, the Old Norse kings' saga, Skadi divorced her first husband Njörðr, the sea god, and married Odin.
This version of Skadi, though, is unmarried. However, she must still be similar enough to the figure of legend to draw so much attention and be remembered by future generations. Probably...
The Scáthach-Skadi in the Lostbelt is much more Skadi than she is Scáthach, and that is why she embodies more of the aspects of the bride of the gods.
Profile 5
Gate of Skye
Rank: A+
NP Type: Anti-Army/Battle Start
Range: 2 - 50
Maximum Targets: 200
The Gate Leading to Dún Scáith, Brimming with Death.
The giant gate that leads to the Land of Shadows, a land cut off from the world, is briefly summoned. The shadow castle that sits in the Land of Shadows, typically a land ruled by Scáthach of the Celts rather than Skadi, reveals itself.
Of those in range of the Noble Phantasm's effects, any deemed worthy will be granted divine blessings and great fortune by the shadow castle's presence. Anyone beloved by the castle's queen, even the most feeble, will find themselves empowered to defeat terrible enemies.
This Noble Phantasm may produce a remarkable turnaround if used in a Holy Grail War.
Scáthach-Skadi does not fully understand why she uses this Noble Phantasm. The only thing she is aware of is that the blessings of the Nordic gods likely allowed her to wield the power of the Land of Shadows that originates from her other self (the Celtic Scáthach). That's about it.
Additional profile
A queen to be feared.
The goddess of snow and ice.
However...
Though she was able to hide this fact while ruling the Lostbelt, she regrets that she was one of those left behind. She was beloved and even courted by the gods, but then Ragnarök came, and the gods disappeared leaving her alone in the Scandinavian Lostbelt. The last god.
On top of that...
She's actually pretty thoughtless.
She's actually pretty ditzy.
She's actually warmhearted.
If you develop a relationship with her, she may reveal a side of herself other than the queen... She may even reveal her true self, one neither god nor ruler...just the natural self beneath it all without needing to keep up the appearance of being the mother of Scandinavia.

- Bond Level 1
- I am Scáthach-Skadi. I am a god...no, a kind of Divine Spirit, now. Normally, I would not become a Servant as a Heroic Spirit fighting for humanity, but... Whatever. I will allow you to serve me, human.
- Bond Level 2
- Do not address me simply as Scáthach. I am not her. Do not think of me as a Heroic Spirit in service of humanity like the others. So how should I be addressed? Hmm... Address me as "Great Scáthach" with all due reverence. Do you understand?
- Bond Level 3
- Hm? Wrong. I'm not Scáthach. I am Great Scáthach. I am Scáthach-Skadi. Look closely. You will notice the glow of my skin, far superior to hers! ...Uh. Never mind. Don't get too close to me. The warmth of human bodies is uncomfortable!
- Bond Level 4
- Sooo hot... Wh-what? Cut it out. Forget what you just heard. Die. Freeze and die. Turn to ice to cool me down!
- Bond Level 5
- Let me tell you a little secret. In the Lostbelt, I was a goddess loved and courted by many gods... Next thing I knew, all the gods disappeared in Ragnarök, leaving me as the final god in all of our world. Left behind. That means... That is why... Do not ever refer to me as a "spinster" or the like. Understand? Do you understand!? Answer me!
- Conversation 1
- I desire ice cream. It is such a terribly delicious thing. Ah, don't you have something you should be doing? How long are you just going to stand around?
- Conversation 2
- Don't you forget: You serve me. Heh.
- Conversation 3
- Hey, Master. ...No. It seems wrong to call you "Master" as you are the one serving me. How careless of me. Forget what I said.
- Likes
- Winter is nice. Life goes into a peaceful slumber. Spring is also nice. Life gloriously blooms. I quite like both, really.
- Dislikes
- I do not care for flames, though Odin did mention that they were necessary for humans...
- About the Holy Grail
- I do not require the Holy Grail. I am a god. I do not make wishes. Wishes are made to me. B-but...if you insist, I wouldn't mind accepting one.
- Conversation 4
- Unbelievable... This other me looks so...dignified!
- Conversation 5
- A-all that skin! That other me's exposing too much!
- Conversation 6
- When I see him, something deep in my heart aches for some reason. Why is that?
- Conversation 7
- There are many ways for a queen to comport herself. There is nothing wrong with how she has chosen to do so.
- Conversation 8
- That poor child. The Allfather's curse still torments her.
- Conversation 9
- Will they eventually take the same path their eldest sister took? ...I suppose that is really not my business.
- Conversation 10
- He's real, right? (Relief) He's real.
- During an Event
- (Snore) (Gasp) I wasn't sleeping. No, you're wrong! Ugh, what do you want, human? An event? Festivals should only be held as offerings to gods! No other sort should exist!
- Birthday
- No, you need not explain the concept of a calendar to me. So today is the day of your birth. I am fond of new life taking root. Hm. Tell me of a wish you have. As former queen of the gods, I shall grant it this once.
