Maria the Ripper: The Holy Mother of Dismemberment (解体聖母, Kaitai Seibo?) is the Noble Phantasm of Jack the Ripper that reproduces her murders, the sublimation of the Jack the Ripper murders as a concept.[1] It is of a somewhat different nature than normal assassination-type Noble Phantasms.[2] It is a set of four strangely shaped knives. They are normally classified as Rank D Noble Phantasms, but they can be empowered under certain conditions by "the hatred of children who were denied everything, even the chance to sell their own flesh; the children who were abandoned back then by the 80,000 prostitutes in the LondonWP ghettos in order to maintain their own livelihood."[3]
If activated normally, they can be used to deal physical damage to the target while the conditions are not completely fulfilled. Upon fulfilling them, the damage rendered receives a large boost in Rank, doubling in power, and the attack can guarantee instant death if a) "it is night-time", b) "the target is a woman (female, including animals)", and c) "it is misty"; the knives manifest within the target's body, instantly vivisecting their flesh, their innards forced out of their body as a result, and turning them into a dismembered corpse. The attack is communicated as a curse rather than a physical technique executed by utilizing the set of knives, so it may be used at long range. Much like Zabaniya: Delusional Heartbeat, physical defense is impossible, but resistance to curses may permit evasion.[1][2][3]
In a Holy Grail War, it is relatively easy to fulfill all but the second of these conditions, so in that regard, it can be considered an easy to use Noble Phantasm. And when this is combined with Jack’s “Information Erasure” Skill, she can act more than sufficiently as a member of the Assassin class. However, it is difficult for “Maria the Ripper” to deal its full power against enemies just as planned unless they are modern day Heroic Spirits. If only she has a Master that is the best in terms of magecraft and all three conditions are fulfilled can this Noble Phantasm have power equal to the average “Zabaniya” used by the Hassans.[2]

Maria the Ripper. The Noble Phantasm of Assassin of Black, Jack the Ripper. It is a Noble Phantasm that has sublimated the Jack the Ripper murders as a concept, of a somewhat different nature than normal assassination-type Noble Phantasms. By fulfilling three conditions when activating the Noble Phantasm, its power is doubled. First condition: the target is female (including female animals as well). Second condition: there is fog out. Third condition: it is night. In a Holy Grail War, it is relatively easy to fulfill all but the first of these conditions, so in that regard it can be considered an easy to use Noble Phantasm.
And when this is combined with Jack’s skill “Information Erasure”, she can act more than sufficiently as a member of the Assassin class.
However, though her Noble Phantasm’s power is great, its damage is determined by the target’s resistance to curses. It is difficult for “Maria the Ripper” to deal its full power just as planned against enemies, except for modern day Heroic Spirits. Only if she has a Master that is the best in terms of magecraft and all three conditions are fulfilled can this Noble Phantasm have power equal to the average “Zabaniya” used by the Hassans.解体聖母【宝具】

The perpetrator of a series of bizarre murders in 19th Century England. A young girl filled with contradictions, possessing properties of both day and night. Her personality is pure, but cruel at the same time. Though her manner of speech is innocent, she is quick of thought. She is rational, but is emotionally weak. She responds cruelly to others' ill will, but is soft against good will. And although she wears revealing clothing, she is shy, and doesn't go out during the day. She yearns strongly for a mother, and if her Master is female, she will insist on calling them "Mother".

Skills
- Misty Night Murderer - Rank A:
As a murderer rather than an assassin, she can strike before her victim. However, she can only unconditionally take the first strike at night. During the day, a luck roll is required. Jack the Ripper's victims are believed to have all been attacked while off-guard.
- Information Erasure - Rank B:
At the instant a battle ends, her abilities, true name, appearance, and other information disappear from witnesses' and enemies' memories/records, even if the battle took place in broad daylight, or was recorded on a device such as a camera. To counter this, one must deduce her identity from evidence left at the scene.
- Mental Pollution - Rank C:
Has a moderate chance of blocking mental interference-type magecraft. If her Master has an evil alignment, or is cruel to her, this mental pollution gradually rises. Her chances of blocking magecraft will increase, but her already broken spirit will begin to irreversibly corrupt.
- Surgical Operation - Rank E:
Can heal her Master or herself using a blood-stained scalpel. It looks risky, but she manages somehow. The techniques are from 120 years in the past, but are improved a little with mana. Jack the Ripper killed victims in ways that would require anatomical knowledge, such as removal of specific organs.
- Presence Concealment - Rank A+:
A skill that suppresses presence as a Servant, suitable for covert action. If presence were fully suppressed, she would be nearly impossible to detect. However, when prepared to attack, Presence Concealment's rank falls substantially. This weakness is compensated for with "Misty Night Murderer", allowing for a perfect surprise attack.
- Mad Enhancement - Rank C:
If summoned as a Berserker, she gains this skill. Increases all parameters in rank with the exception of Luck and Mana, but removes the ability to speak or have complex thoughts. As a Berserker, she is only active at night, with "Darkened Misty Metropolis" always active, and will attack anything that possesses mana.
Noble Phantasm
- Maria the Ripper: The Holy Mother of Dismemberment
Normally four D-rank knives, but under certain conditions, they are boosted by the grudge of "the 80 thousand children in London's slums, abandoned by prostitute mothers for the sake of their livelihoods, unable to even become prostitutes", with brutal results. There are three conditions. "It is night-time", "the target is a woman (or female)", and "it is misty". When all the conditions are fulfilled and the Noble Phantasm is activated, the target's innards are forced out of their body, and they become a dismembered corpse. When the conditions are not met, it is limited to simple damage, but increases in power with each condition that is fulfilled. As the Noble Phantasm is not an attack from a knife but rather a variety of curse, it can be used at long range. To defend against this Noble Phantasm, resistance against curses is required, rather than physical defence.
- The Mist: Darkened Misty Metropolis
A Noble Phantasm that creates a mist-filled barrier. The mist itself, created with mana, is the Noble Phantasm. Although it is a means of keeping people out, a non-magus trapped inside the barrier will die after a few turns. A magus will not die immediately, but will take continuous damage. A Heroic Spirit will not take damage, but their Speed will decrease by one rank. The user of the Noble Phantasm is able to choose who is or is not affected by the fog. As those trapped in the fog lose their sense of direction, an "Instinct" skill ranked B or higher or some kind of magecraft is necessary to escape. The large quantity of soot emitted from the Industrial Revolution onward became a smog of sulphuric acid that caused disaster to London in the 1950s. "Darkened Misty Metropolis" is a Noble Phantasm that reproduces that "mist of death".
伝説の連続殺人鬼
ジャック・ザ・リッパー
19世紀のイギリスで発生した連続猟奇殺人事件の犯人。昼と夜の性質を併せ持つ、矛盾だらけの少女。その性格は純粋だが、同時に惨忍。あどけない口調だが、頭の回転は速い。理性はあるが、精神的に破綻している。他人の悪意に対しては残酷に応じるが、好意には脆い。そして露出度が高いくせに恥ずかしがり屋で、昼間には出歩こうとしない。母に対する強烈な憧れを持ち、マスターが女性の場合、問答無用で「おかあさん」と呼ぶ。

伝説
ジャック・ザ・リッパーは1888年8月31日から約2ヵ月間に、少なくとも売春婦5人を殺したと目される殺人犯の通称である。猟奇殺人鬼の知名度ランキングがあれば、おそらく世界トップに輝くだろう。確たる証拠は死体以外殆ど残さず、人種や性別すら謎に包まれている。天才とも愚者とも、貧民とも王族に繋がる人物とも推理されたが、はっきりとはしていない。また、劇場型犯罪の祖とも呼ばれ、署名入りの手紙と臓器の切れ端を新聞社に送り付けたことでも有名である。ただ、それらが本物かどうかは定かになっていない。つまり、ジャック・ザ・リッパーについては、結局"何も分かっていない"のである。

固有スキル
- 霧夜の殺人：A
暗殺者ではなく殺人鬼という特性上、加害者の彼女は被害者の相手に対して常に先手を取れる。ただし、無条件で先手を取れるのは夜のみ。昼の場合は幸運判定が必要。ジャック・ザ・リッパーの被害者は、状況から全員が無警戒に襲われたと考えられている。
- 情報抹消：B
対戦が終了した瞬間に目撃者と対戦相手の記憶・記録から、彼女の能力、真名、外見特徴などの情報が消失する。たとえ戦闘が白昼堂々でも、カメラなどの機械の監視でも効果は変わらない。これに対抗するには、現場に残った証拠から論理と分析により正体を導き出さねばならない。
- 精神汚染：C
精神干渉系の魔術を中確率で遮断する。この精神汚染はマスターが悪の属性を持っていたり、彼女に対して残酷な行為を行ったりした場合、段階を追って上昇する。魔術の遮断確率は上がるが、ただでさえ破綻している彼女の精神は取り返しのつかないところまで退廃していく。
- 外科手術：E
血まみれのメスを使用してマスターおよび自己の治療が可能。見た目は保証されないが、とりあえずなんとかなる。120年前の技術でも、魔力の上乗せで少しはマシ。ジャック・ザ・リッパーの犠牲者は特定の臓器を摘出されるなど、解剖学的知識を要する殺され方をしていた。
- 気配遮断：A+
サーヴァントとしての気配を断つ、隠密行動に適したスキル。完全に気配を断てば発見することは不可能に近い。ただし、攻撃態勢に移ると気配遮断のランクが大きく落ちてしまう。この欠点は"霧夜の殺人"によって補われ、完璧な奇襲が可能になる。
- 狂化：C
バーサーカーとして召喚された場合、このスキルを得る。幸運と魔力を除いた能力値をランクアップさせるが、言語能力を失い、複雑な思考ができなくなる。バーサーカーになった彼女は夜のみに行動し、常時"暗黒霧都"を発動させ、魔力のある者をかたっぱしから狙っていく。
宝具
- 解体聖母（Maria the Ripper）
通常はランクDの4本のナイフだが、条件を揃えることで"当時ロンドンの貧民街に8万人いたという娼婦たちが生活のために切り捨てた、娼婦にすらなれなかった子どもたち"の怨念が上乗せされ、凶悪な効果を発揮する。条件は3つ。"時間帯が夜であること"、"相手が女性（または雌）であること"、"霧が出ていること"。すべての条件が整っている時に宝具を使用すると、対象の身体の中身を問答無用で外に弾き出し、解体された死体にする。条件が整っていない場合は単純なダメージを与えるに留まるが、その際も条件がひとつ整うたびに威力が跳ね上がる。この宝具はナイフによる攻撃ではなく一種の呪いであるため、遠距離でも使用可能。この宝具の効果を防ぐには、物理的な防御力ではなく、呪いへの耐性が必要となる。
- 暗黒霧都（The Mist）
霧の結界を張る結界宝具。魔力で発生させた霧そのものが宝具である。"人払い"とはいうものの、魔術師ではない者が無理に結界の内側に留まった場合、数ターン後に死亡する。魔術師ならばすぐに死ぬことはないが、ダメージを受け続ける。英霊ならばダメージは受けないが、敏捷が1ランクダウンする。霧のなかにいる誰かに効果を与え、誰に効果を与えないのかは宝具の使用者が選択可能。霧によって方向感覚が失われるため、脱出するにはランクB以上のスキル"直感"、もしくは何らかの魔術行使が必要になる。産業革命以降、大量排出されるようになった膨大な石炭の煤煙が、1950年代に硫酸の霧となってロンドンに大災害を引き起こした。"暗黒霧都"は、その"死の霧"を再現する宝具である。
