Taisui XingjunWP (太歳星君, Taisai Seikun?), Class Name Alter Ego (アルターエゴ, Arutā Ego?), is an Alter Ego-class Servant summoned by Ritsuka Fujimaru in the Grand Orders of Fate/Grand Order.
Profile[]
Identity[]
Taisui Xingjun, also called Taisaishin, is deified form of TaisuiWP (an imaginary planet thought to be a mirror image of Jupiter).[1]
Taisui is syncretized with an underground mass of flesh (known mostly by the name Shiròu), and the lore about said flesh bringing calamity also gives him the traits of a punitive god.[1]
Taisaishin is a cardinal god positioned in the direction of the current year in the Chinese Zodiac and is said to define whether actions performed at that angle will be lucky or unlucky.[1]
Yin Jiao[]
Taisui Xingjun is also called by the names Yin Yuanshuai and Yin Tianjun and is said to be Yin JiaoWP, son of Emperor Zhou of ShangWP, turned into a god. In the scriptures, he displays many shared traits with Prince Nezha, such as being described as a child and also being born from a mass of flesh.[1]
Yin Jiao was the son of the emperor's first wife, the one who was killed by Daji. In the Investiture of the GodsWP, he was Jiang Ziya's enemy, but in other scriptures, he is on the other side, helping King Wu. By the way, one of his Paopei is the Bell of Fallen Souls, a bell whose sound makes the enemies' souls fall off.[1]
Note: FGO's Servant version of Taisui Xingjun is not confirmed to have any elements from The Investiture of the Gods.[1]
Appearance[]
The ribbon he carries is a gift from Meltryllis, originally given to one of the Cons that merged to create him.
Personality[]
Has a habit of saying things twice, presumably as a remnant of the multiple overlapped consciousness he had when he was the Cons.[1]
Adult form[]
Taisui mustn't be awakened (mustn't be unburied). This is his form active as a god of misfortune. An aloof god, an aloof adult. While his appearance fit the "cool beauty" image to perfection, the words he whispers are a bit goofy. He's quite the pessimist. Since he's more strongly aware that he is a punitive god, he believes that humans should bury him back as soon as possible. This form doesn't last for long due to its instability.[1]
Regular form[]
Taisui, the mass of flesh, spawned intelligent lifeforms. These lifeforms, the Cons, gathered together and displayed his divinity. The implication here is that they were summoned using Taisui himself as their vessel. An Alter-Ego defined as a fraction of the deity Taisui Xingjun, a piece of his divinity made independent by this Singularity's events. He takes the form of a small boy, and that's his default form as a Servant.[1]
