Playable Caster (Fate/Extra)

Caster is one of the three playable Servants available to the Fate/Extra Protagonist in Fate/Extra.

Identity
A beautiful girl who served during the late. She was said to be the disguised figure of a white-faced, nine-tailed fox. Her childhood name was Misukume (藻女). Working in the palace since she was 18 years-old, she later became a court lady of Emperor Toba under the name of Tamamo-no-Mae. She was said to have gradually gained the favor of Emperor Toba with her beauty and extensive knowledge. Supposedly, her appearance was that of a twenty year old.

There are many theories, but later she was driven away from the palace when her identity was exposed by an Onmyouji who investigated and identified her as the reason why Emperor Toba had fallen seriously ill. After leaving the palace, she built a bad reputation in the fields of Nasu and had to repel a subjugation army of 80,000 men dispatched under the Emperor's order.

The Dakini Deva
Essentially, Tamamo-no-Mae was publicly known as a nine-tailed fox. However, strictly speaking, she was a jackal that was worshiped as under the assumption of  (suijaku = honji)   =  Dakini Deva...)

Thought to be an. Incidentally, in the, it is mentioned how seized political influence through prayers that made use of this Dakini Deva's power.

In Fate/Extra, Tamamo-no-Mae is a soul that branched off from Amaterasu and her true identity is not that of a nine-tailed fox, but rather is treated as one of the facets of said goddess.

Also, it's a big mistake to categorize her as an Heroic Spirit. Because Tamamo-no-Mae turned into a Heroic Spirit in order to realize her wish of "becoming a good wife," she cannot manifest her original power. In the case that she is revived as an evil spirit, she will undergo a transformation into a large monster that can defeat even 100 heroes. It is not just for show that she is called one of Japan's Three Great Monsters.

Personality
Caster is sometimes a comic relief, being a goofy, silly, and cheerful young fox girl. She sometimes takes the battle and the situation each week of the game seriously. She falls in love with the protagonist, placing herself in the role of their wife regardless of their gender. She expresses that the most important thing over anything else is love.

Fate/Extra
Caster is one of the selectable Servants in Fate/Extra along with Saber and Archer

Abilities
She displays attacks like Curse: Fiery Heaven (呪相・炎天), Curse: Frigid Heaven (呪相・氷天), and Curse: Chaos Heaven (呪相・密天). She can also use Charm: Spirit Theft (呪法・吸精) to absorb energy from the enemy.

Witchcraft
The Witchcraft that Caster uses is all physical phenomena performed with her own body. While common Magecraft is a program that "recomposes what exists around", Witchcraft is a program that "recomposes the raw materials in one's own body."

According to Caster's own words:

"This time there is only one due to the constrains of the Moon Cell, but originally I could produce a million troops from my multiple tails!"

Tokoyo Sakisaku Daisakkai
The Tokoyo Sakisaku Daisakkai (常世咲き裂く大殺界) known as Red Spider Lily Killing Stone (ヒガンバナセッショウセキ), it is a Skill that involves the use of the Killing Stone (殺生石). After her death, Tamamo-no-Mae turned into a rock named Killing Stone, which was tinged with a terrible curse-toxin and caused the humans and animals that approached it to die from poisoning. It was originally located in the plateau of, but later it was broken by a virtuous priest named Monk Gennou and then scattered in three locations in Japan that were called. Furthermore, the remnants that were scattered at that occasion became Osaki Kitsunes and Inukamis and said to have been turned into familiars by many wizards from various places.

In the game, this Skill gives magical damage to the enemy while also causing a Poison status. However, it can only be activated when Caster's HP is below 30%.
