MetatronWP Jeanne (メタトロンWP・ジャンヌWP, Metatoron Jan'nu?), Class Name Ruler (ルーラー, Rūrā?), is a Ruler-class Servant summoned by Dante Alighieri in the Reckoning Singularity and later summoned by Ritsuka Fujimaru in the Grand Orders of Fate/Grand Order.[1]
Profile[]
Identity[]
A high-ranking angel who is the ascended form of the human EnochWP (エノク?), a righteous man and a seventh-generation descendant of Adam.[1] He is God's right hand, known as "Little God"[1] or "One Who Attends God".[3] The scribe of Heaven, and the executor of God's will.[4]
The origin of the name is unclear, but one theory suggests that it comes from "Metatronios", a combination of the Greek words "μετὰ (behind)" and "θρóνος (throne)", together meaning "one who serves behind the throne" or "one who occupies the throne next to the throne of glory". (There are other popular theories, but no conclusive answer exists as to the origin of the name.)[1]
Jeanne d'Arc is a French Saint, and this time, she serves as the "outer layer", with the Archangel Metatron as the "inner layer". However, Angels are power itself, and do not have personalities or emotions.[1]
In Jewish folklore, Metatron is said to be the representative of God who sits upon the throne. In some apocrypha, it is written that "He was born human, but was blessed with the form of an angel when he was told to walk with God and stand before Him forever." Metatron was Moses' guide, and according to some, it was through this guidance that that man was able to produce the miracle that would become the most famous legend in the Book of Exodus, when the sea itself was parted through the power of God in order to create a dry road.[1]
In the World of Magecraft, all angels, not just Metatron, are nothing more than vessels of power. The accumulated myths of angels eventually gave birth to the powerful Metatron, but only as a sort of Craft Essence. However, due to its excessive power, the Craft Essence was deemed a failure.[1]
When Jeanne d'Arc equipped the Craft Essence, she awakened as Metatron. While she lost most of her humanity in the process, Metatron, who should have manifested as a "perfect angel who mechanically judges humanity", for some reason manifested as a "lazy archangel who lazily judges humanity". The form summoned to Chaldea is a combination of the former and the latter aspects, and her attitude changes when she manifests in her second ascension.[1]
A lazy, useless angel who lazes around and doesn't move a single step from her throne.[1]
Appearance[]
She appears slightly younger than the regular Jeanne (but not as young as Lily) being shorter, lighter, and with a smaller chest. Her eyes are golden instead of Jeanne's blue.
Personality[]
First Ascension[]
A serious, reliable class president-type. She still retains some of her more human tendencies, with her girlish and cheerful nature occasionally coming through. You could say that this is the serious side of a younger Jeanne coming to the surface.[1]
Second Ascension[]
When Metatron manifested in Jeanne, a human, he was forced to experience the Seven Deadly Sins. He cast off the sin of sloth, which manifested as her second ascension. As a result of being cast off from her original self and embodying the sin of sloth, she is lazy, corrupt, and quite slothful.[1]
Third Ascension[]
A transcendent Divine Spirit Servant close to God. She prides herself on being perfect and complete and conducts herself with dignity befitting of her words and actions. This is thought to be the strongest reflection of her existence as Archangel Metatron.[1]
Role[]
Fate/Grand Order[]
Courtroom for the Judgment of Mankind: Trinity Metatronius[]
Abilities[]
The strength of her Spirit Origin is on par with Tiamat.[5]
Skills[]
Class Skills[]
- Independent Manifestation (Angel) (EX Rank): A skill that allows one to manifest in the world without outside help. Strictly speaking, this is not the same as the Beast version of the skill Independent Manifestation. This angel can appear wherever the concept of an angel has arisen. Furthermore, Metatron themself possesses extraordinary power.[1]
- Throne Creation (EX Rank): The name Metatron is said to be rooted in the greek word "Metatronios (One Who Sits Upon the Throne)". Metatron, who is given the authority to act and speak on behalf of God, can sit on the throne and exercise unparalleled power as long as she sits there.[1]
- Divine Core of the Archangel (B Rank): A sub-species of the Divinity skill. She is born perfect. However, the rank of this skill is reduced by her evil nature of Sloth.[1]
- Bestowal of Seven Sins (Sloth) (A Rank): One of the evil traits that remained when she descended upon Jeanne d'Arc. In exchange for improved resistance against mental effects, resistance to sleep is reduced.[1]
Personal Skills[]
- True Name 72 (A Rank): According to some, Metatron is associated with the number/name 72. Not only does this prevent the disadvantageous effects of one's true name being revealed, it also automatically deflects all curses, including bindings via Command Seals, Magecraft, and even Noble Phantasms that track specific targets.[1]
- Angel of Contracts (B+ Rank): One of Metatron's angelic powers. She can make a contract with someone and enact various miracles in order to protect and fulfill said contract. However, if the contract is broken, she will be weakened.[1]
- Absolute Agent (EX Rank): Metatron is also said to be the agent of God. They have an exceptionally large body, with feet that stand upon the soil and a head that reaches the heavens. Their overwhelming size, and the strength that comes with it, far surpasses the superhuman strength of demonic beasts.[1]
Noble Phantasm[]
Metatron Jeanne's Noble Phantasms are Sant-du-mont Pilier and Univers Immortel Metatron.
Development[]
Metatron Jeanne was teased twice before her introduction:
- At the ending of Ordeal Call II, as Jeanne Alter is leaving Chaldea, she tells the regular Jeanne to look after Lily and to punch "the other one" on Alter's behalf, hinting that there was a fourth Jeanne Servant in Chaldea. Takashi Takeuchi was asked if that comment meant he was the artist for a new Jeanne variant. He stated,"I’m not drawing one, but look forward to the reveal of what this line means."[6]
- In the 2024 Christmas event, one of the people in Phantasmoon's stream chat was a Ruler-class Servant who said they lived in Florence, Italy (the place where the Reckoning Singularity is located).
Creation and Conception[]
Metatron Jeanne was designed by Ototsugu Konoe in Fate/Grand Order.
