Profile
Background
Scandinavia was a Japanese magus who practiced ShugendōWP before killing off his family and discarding his identity. Becoming a freelancer, he was recruited to Chaldea after Marisbury Animusphere met Scandinavia during his travels, Marisbury wanting to recruit a magus specialized in fighting. Scandinavia joined Chaldea Security Organization by Marisbury's recommendation and became one of the forty-eight Chaldea Master Candidates and a member of A-Team. He planned to summon an Archer-class Servant.[2] Scandinavia managed to hide his real name, race, and age from others, but it was assumed he was the oldest among Chaldea's A-Team.[3]
Later it was revealed that his actual birth name is Myōrenji Arō(妙漣寺鴉郎).
Appearance
He is the oldest in the A-Team. He looks Italian.[2]
Personality
Nicknamed Pepe (ペペ?) by his friends, he is a mood-maker that calmly eases up the tense Crypters during their meetings. Possessing a feminine-like character, the person himself also enjoys exhibiting it. His motto is to do things smoothly, with fun and friendliness. He uses feminine pronouns to refer to himself.[3]
Leonardo describes him to be friendly and casual, and he would always lighten the mood of A-Team with his jokes. Mash Kyrielight mention him to be a good listener, especially when the silent Hinako Akuta would close her book when Scandinavia was around.[2]
He is knowledgeable about Buddhism and Indian myth. "I like mythologies about repeated cycles of destruction", he said.[2]
Scandanavia was later shown to greatly value those he sees as his friends and allies and would go to extreme lengths to get back at those who harms/kill them. As seen where he swore vengeance against Douman for attacking Kadoc Zemlupus and later again swore vengeance against his former comrade, Beryl Gut for betraying his friend Kirschtaria Wodime and killing him.[4]
Role
Fate/Grand Order
Olga Marie Animusphere orders A-Team to participate "Singularity Point F".[5] With Lev Lainur betrayal, Scandinavia was amongst the casualties to be put into cryofreeze in their coffins.[6]
Cosmos in the Lostbelt
Prologue
After the arrival of Goldolf Musik, Koyanskaya and Kirei Kotomine. Thirty-nine Chaldea Masters were resuscitated and evacuated, only the A-Team were believed to be still frozen in their Coffin.[2] On 27th December 2017, somebody had unfrozen and woke A-Team from their respective coffin and placed a fake signal.[7]
Goldolf orders Leonardo to open A-Team's coffin, only to find them missing.[7]
Anastasia: The Permafrost Empire
In the Crypters' meeting, Peperoncino is seen concerned about Kadoc's gloominess, so he tries to cheer him up and encouraging him to show his strength and determination. When Wodime reveals that Chaldea is emerging from the Imaginary Number Space, Peperoncino doubts Wodime's choice of letting Koyanskaya lead the suppresion of Chaldea, saying his Servants could destroy the base without leaving any survivors, to which Wodime disagrees. Later, he asks Daybit's opinion about the "cube" present in his own Lostbelt, to which the latter replies that "cube" is a weak point that he or Wodime would eliminate with haste. Peperoncino finally cuts the transmission, not before saying that he will continue to observe the situation, though he would feel like cutting said weak point.[8]
Götterdämmerung: The Eternal Ice-Flame Century
Kirschtaria mentions Peperoncino being aided by an Alter Ego.[9]
SIN: Land of Unified Knowledge
During a meeting between the Crypters, he is shown trying to calm the dispute between Koyanskaya and Hinako. When they realize the next place Chaldea went to, Scandinavia states they went into a problematic place, suggesting that everyone continue their business in their Lostbelts as usual, although Beryl disagrees. At the end, he asks to Daybit and Wodime their feelings about Ophelia's demise. Acknowledging Wodime's silence, he decides to be the one preparing her a proper funeral in his place before leaving.[10]

Abilities
Peperoncino was originally born into a Magus Family that practiced Shugendō, a unique Japanese Magecraft that combines both Religion and Magecraft into a unique blend. Scandinavia himself was stated to have mastered its offensive abilities and was regarded as a Magus that specialized in fighting by Marisbury Animusphere and was selected to join A Team to complete the Grand Orders due to his skills, further alluding to his power.
Within Shugendō, he is able to make use of the Abhijna (六神通, Rokujintsū?, literally Six Supernatural Powers)[11], a set of higher knowledges that can bring an individual closer to buddhahood. Peperoncino has shown mastery over some of the six knowledges, which are:
- Iddhi-vidha (神足通, Jinsokutsū?, the Knowledge of the Unimpeded Bodily Function), which grants him multiple superhuman abilities such as moving at high speeds, with which he was able to evade Ashwatthaman's attacks and allows him to fight against the Holy Beasts of God Arjuna.[12]
- Ceto-pariya-nana (他心通, Tajintsū?, the Knowledge of the Mind of Others), which grants him the ability to read the intentions of human and non-human beings through "colors".[11]
- Asavakkhaya-nana (漏尽通, Rōjintsū?, the Knowledge of the Destruction of Defilements), which grants the practitioner the ability to reach Nirvana by excluding himself from the cycle of reincarnation. In the Atlantic Lostbelt, he used this knowledge in conjunction with the Ceto-pariya-nana to craft a spell to succesfully render Douman into his main body, making him unable to imprint his Saint Graph on his shikigamis.[13]
