Assassin (アサシン, Asashin?) is a Assassin-class Servant able to be summoned by the Protagonist in the Grand Orders of Fate/Grand Order.
Profile
Identity
Assassin's True Name is CleopatraWP (クレオパトラWP, Kureopatora?). Cleopatra VII, the last Queen of the Ptolemaic dynastyWP, the tragic beauty who was essentially the last Pharaoh of Egypt. Many works depict Cleopatra as a flirtatious beauty swamped in love affairs who used her country as personal property; the truth was she was anything but. Endowed with knowledge, Cleopatra was a genius in dealing with economic matters. Under her reign, Ptolemaic Egypt rose from a ruined military into an economic powerhouse.[1]
She bore Gaius Julius Caesar a son, whose name is CaesarionWP.[2] Strictly speaking, “The Last Pharaoh” was Cleopatra’s son Ceasarion, who ruled alongside his mother during her last years. Ceasarion lived for a few days after his mother’s death, perishing at the tender age of 9. The true ruler of Egypt who struggled against fate was Cleopatra, and thus deserved the title of ‘The Last Pharaoh’. During public appearances, she had the arrogant and loud poise fitting of royalty, but when alone, was an unexpectedly quiet, calm, and scheming lady.[1]
In her lifetime, Cleopatra was close to two men only. The first was Julius Caesar. She was head-over-heels for him. Her adoration for him seemed to make the Mediterranean wind sparkle with her joy… However, without warning, Caesar was assassinated during his campaign to unite the Mediterranean peninsula. Cleopatra was left with their son, Caesarion. Then, through her grief for Caesar, there was Mark AnthonyWP, proclaiming his utmost protection for the Ptolemaic empire and Cleopatra herself. Loving her kingdom and its people, as well as two men from the Roman empireWP — Caesar and Mark Anthony, Cleopatra committed suicide.[1]
Cleopatra’s death was a consequence of her affection and longing for the two men that she loved. During Cleopatra's time, rumors of her actions leading up to her suicide labelled her as the ‘woman who enraptured the Roman forces’. Therefore, as a Heroic Spirit, she exists as a ‘magical and bewitching beauty’. However, out of self-respect, Cleopatra prefers accomplished men only, ones who possess undying loyalty just like the ones she loved. These men will definitely be trapped in her web of love.[1]
Appearance
In Fate/Grand Order, she appears in modern garments such as her leather trousers and jacket, but this is the embodiment of her maiden power in “displaying her true self in a generally simple way.” When the time comes where she trusts her Master and has deepened their bonds, she will probably display “her appearance in accordance with historical fact” for the first time.
Personality
Even though her behaviour was queenly, she still understood the rules of etiquette, was perceptive and kept the peace as a noble ruler. When foreign envoys visited, she would seemingly scold them, but in reality cared about their well-being[1]:
« In my kingdom, I am the absolute law. I don’t discriminate between statuses. If you’re an ugly bloke, you’re no different from a slave. Hmph! I hope all of you unsightly, low peasants are conscious of your appearance. Now, relax and enjoy your stay here! » |
(Cleopatra) |
Maybe it was because Cleopatra always used extravagant means to comfort foreign envoys that they came to Egypt in a never-ending stream. ‘Takabisha1 do-S’ would sum up her personality well: Though having a sadist streak, she did not obtain pleasure from torturing others. Nor did she yell at people to make herself feel better. It was just part of her character.[1]
The wish she wants to make on the Holy Grail is to “acknowledge Caesar and their son Caesarion.” Towards the world far and wide, she wants to vigorously announce that her child Caesarion is a child spun from the result of the love between the couple.
Domineering, Extremely S, Kind, her words, deeds and actions are all together unprecedented for a queen. Dashingly, a top lady who lives on coolness. With her utmost nice nature, there are also traits from her that are seen as foolish because of her speeches and conducts further exaggerating it. Recognizing nothing but heavenly beauty. With the exception of that, everything else is to be ruthlessly used. Nevertheless, she does things such as receptions, looking after others, and advising others on their health and their anxieties for the future. She loves receptions. She holds self-confidence in her beauty, and declares loudly that almost all things are “beneath me”, but she is also a hard worker who devotes her present self to her studies day after day, just under the point of it being tiresome. Although she usually abuses others, it is not “to act as a fool to others.” It is obvious she is beautiful. It is obvious that except for herself, the others are not beautiful. That being the case, the person herself simply talks about what seems to be obvious to be an obvious reality, and in her words, she does not contain “unpleasant feelings to the others.”
In a public place, she behaves arrogantly as a queen, but when it is the individual Cleopatra, that unprecedented style becomes reserved, well-bred and often prudent, and she becomes a cool high-class lady. To say it in a few words, her attributes are domineering, extremely S, and kind. She is kind, despite having sadistic tastes. And although she has sadistic tastes and is extremely sadistic, one cannot conclude that she gets a pleasant feeling in tormenting another person. She does not disparage others for the sake of making herself feel good, but her disposition is merely like that.
Her true character is one who discerns decorum, pays attention to the surroundings, and keeps the peace. Even when the delegates of foreign countries arrived, she abuses them first before showing consideration for their health; in her country, she is the absolute standard, and those unattractive are no different from those who are slaves. “Hah, you ugly men who are third-rate and inferior, prepare yourself! Do make yourself at home to your heart’s content here!” Usually then she does things such as thanking the delegates with the highest quality of hospitality, etc.
She has a bad habit of catching every hardship given that she takes into consideration of performing anything perfectly, her perfectionist temperament being a misfortune. “… Troublesome…” She speaks to herself.
Motivation/Attitude towards the Master
She comes into contact with a condescending attitude in a straightforward manner. However, her “attentive attribute” that is the basis of her is fully displayed, paying attention and appearing to spend time with her Master so that he or she is healthy.
The wish she wants to make on the Holy Grail is to “acknowledge Caesar and their son Caesarion.” Towards the world far and wide, she wants to vigorously announce that her child Caesarion is a child spun from the result of the love between the couple.
Relationships
- Boudica
- "Unlike me, you chose to be hostile to Rome. That is also a splendid choice. So, I wonder if we can get along with each other? Well, since we’re here, let’s become friends!"
- Ozymandias/Nitocris
- "Compared to the ancient Pharaohs who boasted the influence to construct temple complexes and pyramids, I also excessively… eh? Is Miss Nitocris assuming worries? No, that, concerning the demise of the Ptolemaic Dynasty… I always say it’s not my fault, but in fact, it is——"
- Iskandar
- "S-Sign… please kindly sign one for me! Please sign for me!"
- Julius Caesar
- "It is an impossible contradiction when I think about how! He became plump to that extent, and yet, to feel what is lovelyyy... ...No noo. There is no use for a man who did not acknowledge my Caesarion! Daily calorie intake should be dropped to 1500!"

Other appearances
In Fate/strange fake, Cleopatra was mentioned as one of Alexandre Dumas's ostentatious lies to his Master by saying he slept with her.[3]
Abilities
Her Noble Phantasm is Uraeus Astrape.
During moments of combat, she is soon in high spirits. She is ridiculing loudly to some extent. She also has a wild temperament while alive, having studied hand-to-hand fighting and fencing techniques in jest, but now that she has transformed into a Servant, she attained and displays genuine hand-to-hand fighting skills because of her Imperial Privilege Skill. Although she is an Assassin that mainly does surprise attacks as per typical of the Class, if the opponent is a Lancer or a Saber with average abilities, it becomes possible for her to endure and even exchange blows with them right in front of her.

Profile
The tragic queen who carved her beauty in history, Cleopatra VII.
The last queen of Ptolemaic Egypt and, in practice, the last pharaoh of Ancient Egypt.
In many literary works, she is told as a bewitching beauty who indulged in love and misappropriated her country, but the truth is the exact opposite.
She is highly intelligent, being specially gifted in financial handiness. Under the command of this top lady, the militarily inferior Ptolemaic Egypt grew into one of the greatest economic powers in the world.
Level 1 Bond
Height/Weight: 171cm・58kg
Source: Historical
Region: Egypt
Alignment: Lawful Neutral Gender: Female
Strictly speaking, the “last pharaoh” would be her child Caesarion, who Cleopatra had chosen as a joint governor in her last years. After all, Caesarion outlived Cleopatra for at least a few days.
However, Caesarion only had 9 years-old when he lost his life. Thus, the de facto “last pharaoh” - who ruled the country and fought against fate - was Cleopatra.
Level 2 Bond
In public, she would behave arrogantly as a queen; but regarding her own personal matters, Cleopatra restrains her eccentric attitude and becomes a well-raised, prudent and cool high-class young woman.
In simple terms, her attribute would be high-handed, sadistic kindness.
Despite having sadistic tastes, she is kind. Although she is an extreme sadist, this does not mean that she gains pleasure at tormenting others.
She does not disparage others in other to feel good herself, but rather she just have that sort of character.
Level 3 Bond
While she behaves as a queen, her true nature is that of a honorable person who understand decorum, pays attention to her surroundings and attempts to preserve harmony.
When foreign delegations arrived, her usual practice would be to disparage at them with words such as:
“In my country, I myself am the absolute standard, and those unattractive are no different from slaves - no matter who they might be.
Heh, better prepare yourselves, you inferior or substandard fouls!
You can relax to your hearts’ content here!”
All while, at the same time, being concerned with the delegates’ health and rewarding them with the greatest hospitality.
Maybe because of that, countless were the delegates who requested audiences just to be disparaged by Cleopatra, or something.
Level 4 Bond
In her lifetime, Cleopatra got close to two men.
One was Caesar. She fell in love with him in a manner that couldn’t be more clear. Such passion and state of mind made even the winds that stirred the Mediterranean Sea look dazzling, but...
He died. Despite the unification of the Mediterranean world laying right before his eyes, he ended up being assassinated. Leaving behind their son Caesarion.
And then, there was one person who appeared before Cleopatra as she was lost in tears. A man who announced he would protect Cleopatra and the Ptolemaic Egypt: the Roman general Antonius.
After having loved her country and people, as well as two men - Caesar and Antonius of Rome - in the end, she committed suicide.
Level 5 Bond
She got close to two men, and died.
It was love. The result of her feelings. As if it could have been the product of self-interest or the likes!--- However, let alone in later generations, there were unanimous rumors about how “that devilish woman seduced the Roman generals” even in her own time. As a result, upon becoming a heroic spirit, she acquired an existence as a “seducing woman endowed with devilish beauty” in this present-day in which she manifested as a Servant.
Even still, as her dignity---
She only gets close to wonderful gentlemen.
A person possessing a sincere nature and, just like the two men she once fell in love with, whom she can believe would not regret dying together with her; only such a person may utterly seduce her.

厳密には、『最後のファラオ』はクレオパトラが最後の数年間に共同統治者として選んだ我が子カエサリオンとなる。クレオパトラの死後、少なくとも数日はカエサリオンが長く生きたためである。
だが命を落とした折のカエサリオンは僅か9歳。国を統べ、運命と戦った事実上の『最後のファラオ』はクレオパトラであろう。

公(おおやけ)の場では女王として高慢に振る舞うが、クレオパトラ個人となるとその破天荒ぶりは控えめになり、育ちがよく思慮深い、クールなお嬢様となる。
属性を一言でいうと高飛車ドS親切。
加虐趣味なのに親切。ドS、加虐趣味ではあるが、他人を苛む事で快感を得ている訳ではない。
自分が気持ちよくなるために他人を罵倒しているのではなく、単にそういう性格なだけである。
アンロック条件:絆レベルを3にすると開放
女王として振る舞うが、根は礼節を弁え、周囲に気を配り、和を保とうとする人格者。
他国の使節団たちがやってきた時も、まず彼らを罵倒するがその健康を気遣い、
「妾の国では妾こそ絶対の基準、
醜いものは誰であれ奴隷と変わりはない。
フッ、覚悟する事ね下等あるいは低質のブ男たち!
ここで思う存分くつろいでいきなさい!」
などと、最上級のもてなしで使節団を労うのが常。
そのせいかクレオパトラに罵られる為に謁見を求める使節団が後を絶たなかったとか。

クレオパオラは生涯で二人の男に寄り添った。
第一に、カエサル。彼に対しては明確なまでに恋に落ちた。その情熱と想いのさまは、地中海をそよぐ風さえもが煌めいて見えるほどだったが……
彼は死んだ。地中海世界の統一を目前にしながら、暗殺されてしまった。息子カエサリオンを残して。
そうして涙に暮れるクレオパトラの前に訪れた人物があった。クレオパトラとプトレマイオス朝エジプトを守ると告げた男、ローマの将軍アントニウスである。
自らの国と民、そして二人の男―――ローマのカエサルとアントニウスを愛し、最後は自死した。

二人の男に寄り添い、彼女は死んだ。
恋だった。想いの果てだった。打算の産物などであるものか。―――けれど、後世はおろか当時でさえ「魔性の女がローマの将軍たちを誘惑した」と口々に囁かれ、結果として、英霊となった後にサーヴァントとして現界した当世では「魔性の美貌を有する誘惑の女」としての存在を得た。
それでも、矜持として―――
寄り添うのは、素敵な殿方のみ。
共に死しても惜しくないと信じられる誠実な内面を有した人物、かつて自分が愛した男のような相手のみ、見事、誘惑してみせよう。
