Profile[]
Identity[]
"Brides are great! They are so fluffy and sparkling, pretty like flowers and radiant like birds, right?
There are no reasons not to like them!"
A fairy of thread-spinning spoken of in Scotland. Supposedly, it weaves fabrics by spinning threads out of cotton flowers and linseed fibers, and then manufactures clothes. As it fundamentally takes the shape of an old woman with a bent back, its body is very small, about the size of a human child.
A fairy that helps women who are training to become brides, it is a bridal fairy of dreams that takes the place of brides that became busy right before their marriage in order to tailor them a wedding dress.[1]
Appearance[]
She isn't simply short by human standards, but actually as small as a fairy, about the size of a just-born baby. She rides on top of a makeshift airship to give her sprite some kind of bulk.
Personality[]
Introverted and active. Despite not being prone of self-assertion, she performs what she must do/what she wants to do in a powerful manner. She likes good people and hates bad people. Be that as it may, since the person herself is neutral, despite making a distinction between good and evil, she is not the type to arbitrarily decide which is better and which is worse.
Fundamentally, Habetrot does not hold a grudge over others. She views peace as "comfortable". Conflict is "unpleasant due being tiresome".
That is her sense of values. Basically, she is a fairy that is happy so long she can enjoy herself with some sewing work.
The Habetrot from the Lostbelt suffered with issues on her memory capacity due to the culture of "seeing off brides" not being developed, but the original Habetrot is very clever despite being a small fairy.
Also, regardless of being from the Lostbelt or from Proper Human History, both shared the common trait of being very considerate to others. In most cases, humans who get involved with fairies go through a bitter experience, but Habetrot is viewed as a fairy that consistently "protects brides". Even if said bride has a past she feels guilty about, or committed some sort of sin. Habetrot will sacrifice herself for the sake of that bride's happy future, guiding her to a joyful conclusion.
Whether it is the Habetrot from Proper Human History or the one from the Lostbelt, her true nature remains the same. That is: to find a young girl she likes (those Habetrot feel that have the right to become happy brides) and utterly support and look after her. Habetrot call such a young girl "my bride".
After sending out a bride, she will soon look for another one. She ends up becoming engrossed upon finding a good girl, even when she already has a bride, so people say she has a personality that is prone to fall in love. Although this is not often spoken, but she is the embodiment of devotion. A fairy of self-sacrifice that priorities the happiness of the bride over her own.
The reason why Habetrot perceives brides as "treasures" is because she is a fairy that can never become an "adult". The truth is that she wants to become a bride herself, but since that can't come true, she at least tries to protect the future of the lovely girls that made her fall in love at first sight.
Substitute behavior. Or maybe, a brilliant dream such as "it would be wonderful if one day I could... no, I would become like that".[1]
Relationships[]
- Morgan
- "Do I get along with Morgan? Yep, I do! I meet her in the afternoon almost every day. She looks scary, but when you talk to her it's fun to see her peculiar sense of values〜. But, it's a bit sad she doesn't have bridal power. I wonder why she doesn't feel "lonely", but "sad"..."[2]
- "Everybody says Morgan is terrifying, but she’s elegant and graceful and attentive. I like her. How could I not, when she has such a sweet visage! ...Not that I don’t get where they’re coming from. When she’s mad, the temperature in the room instantly drops below freezing."[3]
- Mash Kyrielight
- "She’s my current fave bride! I don’t know how exactly I became the guardian faerie of the Black Barrel, but even if I wasn’t, I’d still love to make a whole bunch of outfits for her. The same goes for you, who I believe will be the one linking arms with her!"[3]
- Barghest
- "Is Barghest here? I know she's a fairy from a Lostbelt, but was Barghest like this? Nope, I'm not talking about her appearance. The bridal power hidden within her is substantial. Well, it's a negative bridal power, so if it keeps increasing she won't be able to marry, though..."[2]
- Miss Crane
- "Crane makes it in my top 3 reasons I’m glad to be summoned in Chaldea! There’s so much to learn from her cutting-edge expertise, not to mention she’s a phenomenal fashion pro. If I’m being honest though, I find it a bit of a shame. ‘Cause look how pretty she is, right? I sure would love to design a Spiritron Dress modeled after her..."[3]
- Artoria Caster
- "Isn’t she a Faerie from the Inner Sea of the Planet? How come she’s such a tomboy?"[3]
- Oberon
- "I find myself thinking, as a fellow faerie, “Now that’s a faerie.” Oberon is the paragon of our kind on account of both his cool side and liar side."[3]
- Red Hare
- "That’s an Asian kelpie, right? Who thinks he thinks he’s human?! Gosh, isn’t he such a character? On another note, talking to Red Hare makes me a bit emotional. I wonder why."[3]
- Britomart
- "No way, Britomart turned into a faerie?! When you became a Heroic Spirit, did your class change to faerie for successfully defeating a tyrant? Whoa! You’re a hero, the real deal! Both your red and white dresses are of the highest grade, gifts from Gloriana herself... Wait, you inherited the name from your mother? Second generation Britomart? ...Whoa, hold on. I’m getting info overload from your personal history!"
- Amour
- "That's not what a Cupid of love is〜〜! But you're so cute! Would you let me take your measures for a moment?!"[2]
- Kingprotea
- "That awfully huge girl? That girl wants me to make her a wedding dress? That's impossible, impossible! I mean she can change her size, right? There are limits to how elastic the materials can be... Ah, but maybe I can make it change according to the user's mana... Alright, I'm Habe-nyan! I accept the challenge! Actually I thought it'd suit her. But prepare yourself〜. 'Cause I don't know how many decades, how many centuries, how many millennia it will take!"[2]
- Altera
- "Altera's veil… It's so nice〜. She herself has high bridal power... I wonder if she'll commission me. I'll make a beautiful special bridal costume like a shooting star〜..."[2]
- Kijyo Koyo
- "It's a Japanese bridal outfit! Awesome! Cool! Even though it's hella auspicious it's so solemn, it's divine〜! ...But hey, why's a dinosaur wearing it?"[2]

Creation and Conception[]
Habetrot was designed by Yukio Hirai in Fate/Grand Order. Her scenario writer is Kinoko Nasu in Fate/Grand Order.[3]
Comments from Illustrator[]
"Since she’s a spinster faerie, I tried incorporating spinning wheel elements into her outfit and equipment. Doing so had been a struggle, and it wasn't until I saw how she was portrayed sewing and dressmaking in the story that I thought, “Oh… I could have expanded my interpretation like that!” It kinda made me reflect on my inability to think outside the box."[3]
"By the way, the mount design is inspired not by sushi…but in fact a goldfish. No special reason, I just figured something tiny and cute would be fitting. It would make my day to know you like Habbycat."(Yukio Hirai).[3]
