Captain NemoWP (ネモ船長, Nemo-Senchō?), Class Name Rider (ライダー, Raidā?), is a Rider-class Servant of Sion Eltnam Sokaris in the Grand Orders of Fate/Grand Order. After properly manifesting the Nautilus and formally joining Chaldea Security Organization, he forms a contract with Ritsuka Fujimaru.
Profile[]
Identity[]
The Servant's True Name are Captain Nemo and TritonWP (トリトン, Toriton?). He is also known as Captain (キャプテン, Kyaputen?), Prince (プリンス, Purinsu?) and Nameless (名無し, Nanashi?) before settling on his identity as Captain Nemo.
Components[]
Nemo is a Phantom created from combining a Heroic Spirit, Nemo, with a Divine Spirit, Triton, due to Sion lacking a proper summoning foundation like FATE of Chaldea.
While "Phantoms" had only been achieved in the Sub-Singularity: Shinjuku, the Atlas Alchemist Sion was able to hack into the data of it, and managed to summon this unique Servant as one.
In Novum Chaldea, he is in charge of transporting the Operation Squad, or ceremoniously providing them with support. While land-based strategies are done by Ms. Da Vinci, Nemo is in command of sea-based operations. From that point, it wouldn't be a stretch to call the two rivals.
Captain Nemo[]
An Indian prince who went into self-imposed exile aboard the submarine he made himself, the Nautilus. His true name is Prince Dakkar from "20,000 Leagues Under the SeaWP".
Triton[]
A Greek God of the Sea and a son of Poseidon. A merman who grew up loved by the gods of the sea.
Appearance[]
Personality[]
Upfront and kind, Triton was beloved by all.
Acting on their beliefs, Prince Dakkar was an embodiment of taking initiative.
While these Heroes combined as a "Phantom", Nemo slightly deviates from both, taking qualities from each to have their own unique character.
Nemo has acquired one belief from the Hero Triton: "To oppose those who manipulate or trample upon others". Even if the enemy happens to be a God, he cannot allow the weak to be tyrannized. Ironically, this has lead to an opposition towards modern society (consumption based culture). That said, seeing the current culture of Europe saddens him a bit. Greece wasn't an exception, but of course, "The World of the Seas has no borders".
When they first met, Nemo had no particular feelings towards the Protagonist or Mash after seeing them. With the memories of Prince Dakkar, he harbored an instinctive wariness against the tragedies brought forth by "People". Because of that, his manner of speaking tended to be fiercely blunt. However...
Since he's in charge of the ship, Nemo themselves is strict towards others, and doesn't tolerate being sweet talked, nor self-centered actions.
...But, with the presence of Triton, he has blessings towards adventurous journeys. Upon reintroducing himself when summoned as a Servant to Chaldea, and viewing the Protagonist as both an Adventurer and Traveler alike, his great blessings now likely point them down the path they tread.
At the start, he persisted in doing his duties himself, going so far to say that "This is my Submarine", to his Master. Once understanding them as worthy to entrust humanity to, he loosened up to them, and became willing to take them closer to their destination, no matter the distance.
His true colors have him as an upfront and agreeable person. The kind who will never abandon people once taking a liking to them.
Until he's sure they've reached the end of their journey, so long as they can see it, even if he can't make it there, he will continue to provide the highest blessings he can. For he is a Heroic Spirit who loves mankind.
He has a tendency to speak in metaphors about sea life, like calling a crashed ship a beached whale or referring to smooth sailing as a ship gliding like a manta ray.
Relationships[]
- Jason
- "A ship's captain has to provide stability. Only being competent in crucial moments is more for adventurers than voyagers of the sea. ...But then again that's probably why that guy's so appealing to the Marines."[1]
- As a fellow captain, he finds Jason somewhat capricious but doesn't dislike his adventurous spirit, which he himself lacks. "I feel like I used to be a bit cooler... Am I tangled in seaweed?"[2]
- Francis Drake
- An illustrious predecessor who overcame the impossible. "Like a flying fish born of grass, and a fierce captain like an orca. I wouldn't want to be her enemy."[2]
- Edward Teach / Anne Bonny and Mary Read / Bartholomew Roberts
- "I cannot condone piracy alone. If you encounter me at sea, you'll have to reflect accordingly."[2]
- Bartholomew Roberts
- "Bartholomew's prudence makes him really reliable. He's good-looking, considerate, and has good taste when it comes to naming vessels. So...why is he such a disappointment?"[1]
- Christopher Columbus
- "Your conviction is commendable. But your actions, I cannot condone."[2]
- Caenis
- Marines: "Whoa, Caenis is here!? No, no, no! We don't like them! They're crude, they're loud, and they don't clean up after themselves! I know! I'll just swap that spear with a mop next time!"[1]
- As Nemo, he has no particular thoughts, but Triton's soul has a strong aversion to Caenis. A Heroic Spirit whose life was disrupted by his father. He feels sorry but cannot tolerate their roughness and temper.[2]
- Poseidon
- A father god like a storm, a volcano, or a giant octopus. "Having too much love is very difficult... I think one is enough for a destined partner."[2]
- Super Orion
- Engine: "Huh, so that's Orion. The rumors were true: he's super beefy. ...Damn. That's the dream. If only I had a male body..."[1]
- Leonardo da Vinci (Rider)
- Professor: "I'm learning so much from Da Vinci. The Shadow Border and the Nautilus. Now that our team has covered both land and sea, our next goal will be to take to the skies. ...But I'm a little concerned about that."[1]
- Lakshmibai
- "I'm both proud and ashamed whenever I see her. She is proof of my crime and the figure I denounced... Oh, she tripped. Oh no. She spilled the tea she was carrying on her head. And now all the trash cans are falling on her like dominoes. Yeah, I really can't take my eyes off her...for so many reasons."[1]
- Katsushika Hokusai
- "Master, did you know that the deep sea is even less charted than outer space? If you know that, then I can get straight to my point. As an expert of the sea, the one piece of advice I can give you is this: Never serve octopus as a meal."[1]
- Mysterious Alter Ego Λ

- Kiara Sessyoin (MoonCancer)
- "...I don't know what it is, but I felt a shiver down my spine. I feel like I'm a giant tuna laid out for auction, or a sardine on a platter... Huh? She's a nun who turned immortal after eating a mermaid!? ...Okay, we're bailing!"[1]
- "The deep sea is a world that is more difficult to observe and investigate than outer space. There exist organisms that are not common to mankind. I have seen a variety of life on the ocean floor. The giant jellyfish Basileus, which can no longer be called anything more than a power plant...the giant species of moor kraken living since time immemorial,......, none of which led to battle and barely managed to break free. That's the same thing. If something goes wrong, call me. I'll help you even if I have to launch all my quantum torpedoes"[1]
- Van Gogh
- "So Van Gogh's here, too? I'm relieved since both she and I have ambiguous presences. I do hope you can be her anchor so she doesn't turn to foam and disappear."[1]
- Kukulkan (after Clearing LB7)
- "Kukulcan may look free spirited and uncontrolled but on the inside she's very sensitive. She was the first to come to me to apologize for attacking the Storm Border, but even after that, she still gets depressed in front of me. It's true that I was sunk once by her, but I was rescued after that, so I don't worry about that."[1]
- Kingprotea (after Clearing LB7)
- "Marine:Yes, Protea and I are swimming buddies! Big creatures are not uncommon in the sea, and I like Protea's swimming style very much because it's gentle to the fish! Sometimes we also play like kaijus! Gaoh! ...... Oh, but be careful with the Alters, They're a little mean, okay? Uwawa ...... we've met a few scary ones too...[1]
- Tenochtitlan
- "Tenochtitlan is always challenging me to compete with her. I wonder why she sees me as an enemy... ...Eh? A rivalry over superior construction? She just can’t ignore me as a competitor? Haha... I get it. If that’s how it is, I have to take it seriously, too."[1]
- "Both Tenochtitlan and Master. The Border doesn't even transform into a humanoid form, much less combine. Ah, that girl ...... Why does she think of the border as the only enemy? There are others, like Odysseus' and Mistress Europa's, aren't there?"[1]
- Melusine (Swimsuit)
- "Professor: Okaaay, reporting in. At Melusine’s request, we’ve installed a rotating catapult on the Storm Border’s deck… yes, Sion and I did it. It doesn’t show on his face, but I think Captain is also secretly excited… aircraft carriers are so romantic, after all."[1]
Role[]
Fate/Grand Order[]
Eternal Icy Fire Century: Götterdämmerung[]
While the Shadow Border was diving through Imaginary Number Space on their way to the Norse Lostbelt, the members of Chaldea aboard it detected something large nearby them. Though they didn't know it at the time, this "something" was Captain aboard the Nautilus trying to make contact with them.[3]
Synchronized Intellect Nation: SIN[]
Captain was first introduced as the Servant of Sion Eltnam Sokaris when the remnants of Chaldea arrived at the Wandering Sea.
Yuga Kshetra: Samsara of Genesis and Terminus[]
Captain accompanies Chaldea to the Indian Lostbelt to activate the Aronnax Phantasm at precise coordinates there to improve the Border.[4] so it can cross the seas to reach the Atlantic Lostbelt.[3] Upon arriving in the Lostbelt however, he realizes the Aronnax Phantasm cannot be activated as long as the Lostbelt remains.[4]
Later, when Chaldea is stopped from chasing God Arjuna to Fantasy Tree Spiral by the Sea of MilkWP, Captain warns Lakshmibai not to sacrifice herself to it by using Alakshmi’s powers to focus the poisonous waters on herself so they can cross. Lakshmibai realizes she and Captain knew each other in life. Captain confesses though that he never personally experienced the sepoy rebellion, but the regrets of the him who fled from it formed his core. He tells Lakshmibai that he felt a connection with her ever since he was inspired by the rumors about her fighting, and knowing they were fighting at the same time. Lakshmibai does not judge Captain for choosing to survive, saying her path in life was the only one available to her. It is the same now as Lakshmibai continues to persist in choosing to sacrifice herself. But Captain activates his Noble Phantasm to transform the Border into the Nautilus to cross the Sea of Milk. It is at this point that he confirms he is a fusion of Nemo and Triton. Captain admits that his true Nautilus was the unknown entity Chaldea encountered during their Zero Sail to the Norse Lostbelt. He also confesses to not having hight hopes that Chaldea could undo the Human Order Revision when they first came to the Wandering Sea as he blamed modern people for the Earth's current state. But seeing them fight in India has reinvigorated his hopes.[3]
After Spiral is destroyed, Chaldea gets ready to move to the precise area required to perform the Aronnax Phantasm's activation ritual. Fortunately the ritual is half-way complete thanks to Captain being perfectly synced with the Border now.[3]
[]
To prepare for the upcoming attack on the Atlantic Lostbelt, Nemo and Chaldea performed tests on the Nautilus inside Imaginary Number Space.
Ancient Ocean of the Dreadnought Gods: Atlantis[]
The Nautilus and Shadow Border were combined with the Hephaestus Klironomia and Triton's power to form the Storm Border.
Nahui Mictlan: Golden Sea of Trees Travelogue[]
The Storm Border was attacked by a giant of light native to the South American Lostbelt, severely damaging it and critically injuring Captain Nemo. Nemo did his best to maneuver the ruined ship into an emergency crash landing.[5] He synchronized himself with the ship to prevent it from falling apart, though this meant taking the damage onto himself, putting him into a coma in a near-death state.[6]
Nemo was one of the captives taken by Tezcatlipoca and the Ocelomeh.[6] Fujimaru later freed him, and his Saint Graph was stabilized with a Gradation Air spell by Tepeu, taught to him by Nemo Professor.[7]
Fate/Grand Order Arcade[]
Babylon: Critically Prosperous City[]
Nemo was summoned into the Babylon Singularity. When Grand Rider Noah was critically injured by Beast VI/S, in order to survive he had to reach out to Nemo to stabilize his Saint Graph.
Abilities[]
As Nemo was summoned as a Phantom by his master Sion, the Chaldea Summoning System could not utilize him. From an anxiety about the Summon success rate against her, she combined two Heroic Spirits's Saint Graphs, refining one Saint Graph for a capable Servant.
As a result of Triton having the memories of Nemo along with his association with a "Noble Phantasm of the Sea", he was able to make the Submarine Nautilus appear alongside him.
Due to Sion summoning him around the time Part 2 began, he was unsure on being either a "Merman" or a "Prince". Upon joining forces with and deciding to assist Chaldea, the aspect of "Merman" was sealed, and the existence of "Captain Nemo" was secured in order to conquer Atlantis. Thereafter, he became captain of the Dimensional Boundary Boring Ship: The Storm Border, and committed to backing up Novum Chaldea's conflict.
He comments that he can hear the Shadow Border lamenting its current state and wishes to help it.
Combat[]
Captain wields a revolver pistol. He also has a conch shell horn with which he can unleash deadly sound waves. In a possible connection to Triton, he can manifest vast amounts of water to attack in a variety of ways, from tidal waves to vortexes. He can also use his horn to blast the enemy with water. As Captain of the Nautilus, he is also able to command his Nemo Series to attack his foes, through landing on them in a lifeboat or throwing gunpowder at them.[8]
Skills[]
Class Skills[]
- Protection of the Sea God (B Rank): Triton, born of the sea god Poseidon and the sea goddess AmphitriteWP, is naturally familiar with the ocean and receives the blessing of the sea god. As a child of the sea god, he has innate abilities. All kinds of water spontaneously follow Triton's (Nemo's) guidance and will. This is why it is a passive skill. There is no difference whether it is fresh water or seawater. However, it must be "water" to some extent in quantity. Water molecules in the air or water contained within living organisms cannot be manipulated. Defensive power increases Near Water.[2]
Personal Skills[]
- Voyager of the Storm (C++ Rank): A Captain specific skill. While not really applying to Triton, Nemo possesses a renowned ship and has some experience "Sailing through storms at Zero-sail", so the skill is ranked lower than other Captain Servants.
However, if the field is Waterfront, this skill's effectiveness doubles, which explains why its rank is appended with a "++".
- Indomitable (B+ Rank): The Heroic Spirit Nemo's spirituality, his beliefs, are given form through this Skill.
It's both Battle Continuation and NP Gain, and grants additional gain upon the Guts aspect proccing. Any captain worth their salt gets fired up with passion when the tides turn on them.
- Journey's Guidance (C++ Rank): The property to guide Heroes, from Triton formerly guiding the Argo.
Triton safeguards the hopes and dreams of those who aim towards unseen lands and impossible worlds. "Cross these borders, and set sights towards grander worlds". This skill has a great affinity with Ms. Da Vinci. This skill's effects also double if the field is Waterfront.
- Proof of the Journey (EX Rank): Aronnax Phantasm. Aronnax is the protagonist's professor in "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea." The mechanism is named after his assumption of "a monster with horns" at the beginning of the story. By adding this mechanism to the Shadow Border, it adds the existence of a “ram-equipped underwater lifeform," allowing Nemo to unify the Nautilus and the Shadow Border as his Noble Phantasm. In the alternate world of India, Nemo recognized the courage and pride of the staff of Chaldea, and chose to serve as their captain. Later, the Nautilus switched from the Shadow Border to the Storm Border as its proof mechanism, becoming the flagship of Chaldea.[2]
Noble Phantasm[]
Captain's Noble Phantasm is Great Ram Nautilus. Taking the shape of the submarine Nautilus, this Noble Phantasm surges forward with its giant ram. Endowed with a special concept, it may pierce any enemy, no matter how massive, be it a giant squid or a battleship. While this Noble Phantasm can be used outside the water (both above ground or in the air), it is far more accurate and powerful if it is used in the sea, making it more effective whenever the field is Near Water.
Nemo Series[]
The Nemo Series is an ability inherited from his Master's Memory Partition ability, allowing Nemo to divide up his skills into alternate selves to properly manage his ship. He declares that he, as a metaphor, can be considered a fully autonomous ship. Like how Memory Partition allows for the brain to be partitioned into multiple pieces, Nemo takes his sailing abilities and other specialized skills, producing multiple autonomous selves. There are six types in total, and although there is only one of five types, for the Nemo Marines there is always twelve which can increase to a maximum of twenty-four depending on Nemo's needs[9] making the total number of Nemo partitions as twenty-nine.
The Nemo Series are split into boys and girls, but it is unknown who is what, except for the Marines.

- Nemo Professor - Onboard professor
Forms and Alternative Forms[]
Santa[]
Abilities[]
Skills[]
Class Skills[]
- Riding (A Rank)
- Divinity (B Rank): Triton, who is sometimes called a god, has a high aptitude for divine spirits, but this time he is feeling down because he specializes in land transportation.
- Protection of the Sea God (D Rank): This time, it would not work because it was a land route, but Nemo is motivated to make it happen by saying, "Snow is just water".
Personal Skills[]
- Holy Night Driver (A Rank):Even moving from underwater to land, his piloting skills remain unchanged. Whether it's a snowy field or a blizzard, a car carrying a gift always ends up at someone's house waiting for the gift. Land version of "Voyager of the Storm". As a rare additional buff, a high attack buff is added to servants who can riding in multiple battles (excluding possession, familiars, beloved horses, etc.). However, Nemo (Santa) himself does not fall into this category.
- Persistent Deliveryperson (B+ Rank): It's the embodiment of the spirituality and belief of heroic spirit Nemo. No matter problem, destination, or present, we will deliver what is entrusted to us. "If it's someone important to you, I'll deliver it to the top of Everest."
- Nameless Saint (EX Rank): Santa Claus is an unknown saint. If there is a person who is looking forward to presents, He will appear and visit in every household. The heroic spirit with the name "Nameless" show a high affinity for Santa Claus, who delivers gifts on Christmas Eve but never shows himself or hears words of gratitude directly.
Noble Phantasm[]
- Holy Run, Nautilus: A cooperative assault attack by all members of Nemo series using a land armored vehicle PP (Penguin Porter), which is a modification of the landing ship Carolinus that was carried on board the Nautilus.
Development[]
Creation and Conception[]
Captain Nemo was designed by DANGERDROP in Fate/Grand Order. His scenario writer is Kinoko Nasu in Fate/Grand Order.[10]
Nasu knew there was going to be a large ship in the latter half of Cosmos in the Lostbelt, so he wanted a hero to be the captain of that ship, and felt that Nemo fit the bill perfectly. The decision to make Nemo a child was made because both the Captain Nemo in the original novel and the Captain Nemo in the anime Nadia: The Secret of Blue WaterWP had both been so memorable, and Nasu didn't want to simply repeat what other people had done.[10]
Nasu decided on Nemo being merged with a mermaid before he decided on the specific mermaid's identity, and because of that fusion up until the last minute he couldn't decide if he wanted Nemo to be a boy or girl. It was after he saw DANGERDROP's design that he decided Nemo would be a boy and decided that Triton would be the mermaid fused with him.[10]
The idea for the Nemo Series came when Nasu was visiting Hawaii in 2018 (the same trip which led to the Servant Summer Festival summer event). While visiting the USS Missouri memorial Nasu realized that there was no way a battleship could be run by only one person, so he quickly contacted DANGERDROP and had them design the Nemo Series.[10]
