Profile

Background

A Kaleidostick, the younger sister of Magical Ruby, that enables Miyu to become a Magical Girl. Sapphire was originally assigned to Luvia, but, as with Ruby, Sapphire abandoned Luvia after becoming tired of how she was constantly quarreling with Rin.

Appearance

Sapphire is a Mystic Code that resembles a toy Magical Girl Stick. Her appearance consists of a six pointed yellow star in a ring that has two small blue bead with two pairs of butterfly-like wings (the top is large and blue with white spots, while the bottom are small and black with jagged ends ), and a blue retractable handle that has a white top with a white brush at the bottom.

When not being wielded as a Kaleidostick, she lacks the handle.

Personality

Although she is younger sister of Ruby, Saphire is slightly more mature and formal like Miyu and takes her responsibility as a Kaleidostick very seriously and always follows orders. She doesn't like fooling around like her older sister. This makes her sometimes a liability whenever Ruby goes too far with her teasing or schemes. This overall makes her more straighfoward if not blunt.

Like Ruby, she can be very loyal and caring to those she accepts as her proper master and will see to their well being. This also extends towards those her master cares about. When it comes towards those she see unworthy of her, she can be rude while still being formal.

Role

Fate/Grand Order

Event: Prisma Causeway

Sapphire and Magical Ruby were with their respective masters, Miyu Edelfelt and Illyasviel von Einzbern, traveling back to the Mirror World when the First Lady summoned them into her Reality Marble. They were attacked by Connacht ☆ Medb, allowing the First Lady disguised as one of Medb's familiar to capture Miyu. Separated from her master, Sapphire set about to find Sapphire..

She eventually finds her in the First Lady's castle, restrained in the Anti-Magical Girl Mystic Code, Voile de Deuil. She tries to cut her free, but Miyu stops her to protect her from the restraints' magical energy-draining function. She then tells her to find Illya and warn her of how terrifying their enemy is. Later, she has Sapphire record a message for Illya or an associate of hers. In the message, she explains where she is and reveals the First Lady has been luring Magical Girls from various worlds into the Reality Marble. She speculates it is for a nefarious purpose, believing it is connected to her imprisonment. She warns Illya not to come to the castle, instead urging her to send someone else. The patrolling familiar soon returns, so Miyu sends Sapphire out with the message.

Sapphire later arrives in the Land of Snow and Honey-assimilated Land of Sweets as Ritsuka's party is fighting Mini Cu. She agrees with Ruby’s request to temporarily contract with Mash since she is Illya’s ally. Mini Cu retreats once the contract is made. Afterward, Sapphire plays Miyu's message. Sapphire believes Miyu doesn’t want Illya to come because she knows something about the First Lady’s true identity. Mahatma ♀ Helena only heard that the First Lady was the first Magical Girl.

After Helena gives her jewel to Illya, the group enters Medb's castle without Helena. Inside the throne room, the group fight Medb. They defeat her and Illya unintentionally breaks her by saying the former considered the Magical Girls who disappeared as her comrades. As proof, Medb's castle begins to collapse. Ritsuka and Illya plead with Medb to come with them. But Mini Cu tells them that's impossible as Medb can no longer bear the strain of forcibly interfering with parallel worlds. The group then escapes the collapsing castle, leaving Medb and Mini Cu to disappear together. Medb’s jewel appears in Mash’s hand. Illya returns Helena’s jewel to her. With all four jewels, the group can now bypass the black wall.

Returning to the Neutral Zone, the group watches the black wall disappear. Illya, Ruby, and Sapphire fly up to get an overview of the First Lady’s kingdom. The First Lady's familiars soon approach. Illya, Ruby, and Sapphire rejoin the others and warn them of the approaching familiars. They eventually breakthrough and enter the First Lady's kingdom.

As they head closer to the First Lady's castle, the group is attacked by a large enemy force. Using power borrowed from Ruby and Sapphire, Illya initially tries to hold off the enemy herself so the others can go on ahead. She eventually exhausts herself, though, fighting so many enemies. Helena takes over from her so Illya can meet the First Lady with Ritsuka and Mash.

Inside the First Lady’s throne room, the group sees Chloe von Einzbern on the throne. Chloe reveals that she and Miyu have been in the Reality Marble for a very long time, though she’s been in it since the beginning. The group finds Miyu restrained by the Anti-Magical Girl Mystic Code, Voile de Deuil, part of which turns into hostile familiar when Mash tries to check Miyu’s condition. Chloe reveals that she secretly followed Illya and Miyu into the Mirror. She ended jumping into the Reality Marble but became trapped, arriving during the Magical Girls conflicts. She hid her presence, but her magical energy soon depleted. That was when she met the First Lady through her familiar. She calls her appearance in the Reality Marble an inevitability as the First Lady turned her against Illya by calling her an accessory to Illya. Illya denies that, but Chloe projects a weapon in response and fights her.

Their shared pain puts Chloe at a disadvantage when she reveals she is the First Lady’s vessel. The First Lady then possesses her. She explains her history and how her desire to spread the Magical Girls’ magic of love and hope throughout the world attracted Echoes to the Reality Marble. She attempted to use them to grant her wish by giving them temporary bodies and bodies, but it failed because they weren't real Magical Girls. That is when she met Chloe and made her into her vessel. With Miyu’s power, the First Lady will incarnate the Echoes into Magical Girls and spread them across parallel worlds to save people. She’ll soon absorb Miyu, as Chloe resists assimilation with her. Miyu asks Illya to help Chloe and the First Lady both, saying the latter has an impossible wish in her heart. Chloe briefly takes back control of her body before the First Lady retakes control. The First Lady reveals her and Chloe’s desire for Miyu allowed her to break through the latter’s mental wall and fully control her body. Once Miyu is emotionally broken by seeing the group dead before her, she’ll use Miyu to reach infinite parallel worlds. The group then fights the First Lady to save her from herself.

With the First Lady defeated, Chloe slowly regains control of her body, and Miyu is freed. The First Lady confuses she killed her best friend to protect the world when she refused to be a Magical Girl. Helena then arrives and takes everyone outside.

There Ruby has the passive Echo possess Illya; the First Lady recognizes her as her friend Mila. Mila became an Echo since she was a Magical Girl, even if it was for a brief time. After Mila explains her circumstances, Ruby realizes she is the corrupted Magical Girl. Helena convinces the First Lady to give her ownership of the Reality Marble so it can serve as a refuge for wounded Magical Girls to stop them from becoming like the First Lady. The First Lady and Mila then reconcile and disappear. Afterward, everyone uses the power of the jewels to return their respective worlds.

Abilities

As a Kaleidostick-type Mystic Code that can grant transformation into a Magical Girl, Sapphire has the same functions and abilities as her older sister Ruby. These functions include access to the Mana Plane to provide her user/master unlimited magical energy, limited only by their Magic Circuits.

She can have her wielder utilize shots made of pure Magical Energy that can be manipulated and grant enhancements that include A-rank Magical Barriers, Physical Protection, Regeneration, and increased Strength. However, these powerful enhancements are shown to be inferior towards varied Heroic Spirits and their abilities. She can freely choose her master while also establishing temporary contracts for others to wield her if required.

Like her sister Ruby, Sapphire has the ability to Include and Install Class Cards.

When she isn't being used, she can fly on her own for self-movement.

She can establish a video or audio wireless communication with Ruby, and exchange information through a USB-like cable. However, her communication with Ruby can be blocked by a strong magical interference.

Sapphire is able to induce hypnosis that erases memories but at the cost of the target(s) losing one IQ. She also demonstrated this ability to control mice.

Like Ruby, they share the same weakness where they are unable to utilize their Magical Girl base abilities and spells without a wielder and will have their transformation undone when separated for too long.
