Assassin (アサシン, Asashin?) is an Assassin-class Servant summoned by Ritsuka Fujimaru in the Grand Orders of Fate/Grand Order.
Profile
Identity
Assassin's True Name is Gray (グレイ?), the young assistant of Lord El-Melloi II. Gray was to be the flesh of King Arthur. When she was born, her facial features vaguely resembled those of King Arthur, but with the years, her body suddenly changed to that of King Arthur's. Losing her true face, she could no longer differentiate her own existence from that of King Arthur. Because of this, she could never fully understand herself. Upon hearing the news, Lord El-Melloi II, visited the village, and due to circumstances, Gray was entrusted to El Melloi, who made her his apprentice; admitting her to the Clock Tower of London.
Appearance
Assassin takes on the appearance of Gray in all of her forms. Her personal weapon is Grim Reaper: Scythe of the Death God, which is the alternate form of Add, her personal mystic code, whose purpose is to seal away Rhongomyniad and preserve its mystery.
A result of a particular clan’s attempt to forge a vessel fit for a king. Her body faithfully resembling that of a hero of ages past containing capabilities that should not be able to be found in modern day humans. However, as these changes happened instantaneously to Gray when she was a child, she is still not able to come to terms with the face she now carries. With that said, Gray cannot help but feel distant from even her own face therefore she has a great amount of trust in the man Lord El-Melloi II who brought her away from her hometown.
Personality
For the most part she is quite shy with other people and generally withdrawn.
Coming from her being born and raised in a rural area, she has yet to become used to life in the city and has a habit of being very attentive to her surroundings. From the ground up Gray is a kindhearted and patient girl whom others feel charmed by. No matter where she goes, she’ll more than likely have no trouble getting used to her surroundings and getting along with those around her. However, that is provided that we do not involve ourselves with the topic of the face under her hood.
She makes a great pair with the dirty-mouthed yet honest Add.

Abilities
Her Noble Phantasm is Rhongomyniad. The spear Gray carries is actually but a shadow of its true form, an anchor that binds the two sides of the World. Even though it may only be a shadow, due to the burden that it places on Gray who is but a human, it is regularly sealed within Add and only released when the need arises. The various weapons that Add is able to transform into is made possible from the overflowing power of Rhongomyniad. Though it may be sealed by the mystic code and placed under 13 restrictions, the Holy Spear continues to shine as bright as ever.
The cause behind Gray’s appearance as an Assassin is due to some special characteristics of Add the talking cube.

Sealing Mystic Code Release: C Not only being able to seal the Holy Spear, but also based on what the circumstances call for Add is able to undergo a special release where he is able to take on a range of varying transformations.
