TiamatWP (ティアマトWP, Tiamato?), Class Name Beast II (ビーストⅡ, Bīsuto Tsū?), is a Beast-class Servant who appears in the Grand Orders of Fate/Grand Order.
Profile[]
Identity[]
One of the Primordial Deities in Mesopotamian MythologyWP/Sumerian MythologyWP.[1][4] Before being called Tiamat, she was known as the Goddess of Beginning, the primordial sea, NammuWP.[5] Along with Abzu, she was manifested from the Sea of Dawn (黎明の海, Reimei no Umi?)—an Ocean of Void (無の海, Mu no Umi?) that lies below the Underworld of Ereshkigal, said to have once been under the administration of the god Enki.[6]
In Sumerian Mythology, the gods were given birth from the pairing of Tiamat, who is the salt water, and Abzu, who is the freshwater. Afterwards, the gods, whom are their children, waved their banner of revolution against the primeval father Abzu and acquired supremacy over the world. At this moment, Tiamat gently approved the deeds of her children. It is proof that her love for her children has won over her love for her husband.[1][4]
However, the gods pointed their blades even at Tiamat, their mother. Tiamat, in her grief and disorder, gave birth to 11 Magical Beasts as her new children, and they altogether had a showdown with the gods. At the end of the conflict, Tiamat and her 11 Magical Beasts were torn apart. It is said that the gods tore up her corpse into two, forming heaven and earth from it, and thus, had established the ritual for the creation of the World of Man.[1][4]
Tiamat was "a womb discarded after the Genesis", becoming the origin of Sumerian Mythology. She was turned into a "Mother Sea" and was put to use as a breeding ground to produce life, but once the earth’s environment stabilized and after the ecosystems were established, she was banished to the World of Imaginary Numbers (虚数世界, Kyosuu Sekai?) (a World on the Reverse Side (裏側の世界, Uragawa no Sekai?); an imaginary space that has no life and is not even a Parallel World) as something unnecessary. (Seeing that the ecosystem was already established, there is no need for her, one who designs life randomly, and it is said that regarding the course the lifeforms who acquired intelligence conforms to, she was nothing but an impediment by now.) Hereafter, Tiamat has been waiting in the mirror world for a chance to return back to her original world.[1][4]
Appearance[]
Owing to Tiamat's Authority over the Sea of Life and her capacity for Self-Modification, she is capable of freely remodeling her Saint Graph, and therefore is unrestricted to any of her alternate forms:
The Black Mud of the Sea of Life is also included in Tiamat’s height.[1] Her height matches the area of the Indian OceanWP.[4] However, given that the mud is made up of Imaginary Numbers, her weight cannot be measured.[1][4] Essentially the same as zero.[4] On the other hand, its volume grows to be infinite. In short, it is a four-dimensional pocket.[1][4]
Personality[]
Something like a personality cannot be confirmed from her. Whether Tiamat has lost her ideals, or whether she has no reason since the beginning, it can be interpreted as either way, but one cannot surmise the reason. Although she simply birthed, raised and loved her children, which was viewed as her only meaning in life, she has set out to fight against humanity, of whom they decided that for the sake of denying this meaning, they have declared "you are not needed." Her behavioural ideology when becoming a Beast is extremely simple; she runs under the extremely primitive system of "If I do not kill humanity, I will be killed."[1][4]
Concerning Tiamat's motivation and attitude towards the Master, he/she is one of seven billion humans, naturally a target for obliteration. As far as human beings are concerned, Tiamat is a repulsive aggressor (invader), but concerning Tiamat too, human beings are terrifying aliens (extraterrestrials).[1][4]
Because Tiamat cannot converse, her pronouns are unknown.[4]
In the Babylonia anime, Ritsuka Fujimaru during the final battle against Beast II encountered a mental projection of Tiamat in her first form. Somehow she was able to create a mental connection to him. Tiamat lamented that her children used her as a stepping stone, leaving her behind and that all she wanted was to be by their side.
After asking if her love was wrong, Ritsuka chose not to stab her like her previous children (the Sumerian Gods) and instead told her that her children loved her and that they had to "get going". In other words he thanked her for a Mother's Love as humanity grew up but now that they were adults she had to let them go.
"Please don't leave me. Please never... love me again."
In the end, Tiamat asked Ritsuka to not leave her behind and that if he (humanity) had to do so, to not love her again.
Role[]
Fate/Grand Order[]
Sixth Singularity: Camelot[]
Goddess Rhongomyniad hints that there is a great demon in the Babylonia Singularity that might surpass Goetia in power.[7]
Seventh Singularity: Babylonia[]
While Beast II achieved her return to this world with the collapse of the Human Order Foundation and due to the power/distortion of the Holy Grail, she was however in the middle of a deep slumber. Setting aside the fact that Merlin's magecraft kept her asleep, once Beast II was attacked by Chaldea, she woke from her sleep and setted out to clean up humanity in accordance with her primal instincts.[1][4]
Although there is resentment/hatred/sadness for being abandoned for having already served her purpose, there is also a conduct in indulging in the “joy” of coming back to repaint the earth’s ecosystems once again as the mother of everything.[1][4]
Her Class was determined by her real nature mentioned above. The Primordial Goddess and the likes are but false titles. Deserted by the humans, that being is one of the great disasters most rejected by human history. That name is Beast II. One of the seven Evils of Man, the beast that carries the Logos of “Regression” (『回帰』の理, “Kaiki” no Kotowari?, localized as "law of Recurrence").[1][4]
Also, the title called Femme Fatale was something given by Beast I (Goetia). Goetia successfully saw the true nature of Beast II’s core, so he bestowed a title meant for a Woman of Destiny rather than one meant for a Mother of the Gods (Magna Mater). At the bottom of her hatred towards humanity, there is also joy towards humanity for becoming a mother, as well as love towards humanity, them being the children of her first-generation children. For this reason, Beast II binds herself. A mother’s love is something necessary for growth, but it is something unnecessary for adults. In order for humanity to advance to the next stage, they must overcome the “original woman”.[4][8][9] [10][11][12][13]

Other appearances[]
In Fate/EXTRA CCC, Tiamat was mentioned in BB's Potnia Theron Skill. It is the authority of the Earth Mother Goddess whom BB compiled and absorbed from the abyss of the Moon Cell. It is the embodiment of the power of creation possessed by the mother goddesses, originating from a forgotten goddess approximately 8000 years ago (the goddess of Çatalhöyük), and branching to Tiamat, among other goddesses.[14]
Tiamat is also one of the Earth Mother Goddesses that act as the components for the Alter Ego-class High-Servant Kingprotea created by BB.
Abilities[]
Tiamat is said to be an "evil" Chaldea can't even imagine and a great demon that may even surpass the power of the King of Magecraft as claimed by Goddess Rhongomyniad.[7]
On top of her firepower, strength, and endurance, Tiamat lacks the concept of death and can heal herself from the Sea of Life over time rendering her virtually unkillable without being able to enforce the concept on her powerful Saint Graph. According to the Corrupted Ushiwakamaru, only a Noble Phantasm capable of gathering all the magical energy of the entire era would be able to destroy the Sea of Life. In other words, only the Bands of Light in the sky can rival Tiamat.[10] Even if her Sea of Life is completely destroyed, it will end up remerging from her body in a short while such as after being destroyed by Piedra Del Sol or after her fall to the underworld.
Forms[]
Tiamat has three different forms, each with their own combat capabilities. The Magical Energy inside Tiamat varies in each form:
Form | Magical Energy |
---|---|
Draconic Corpus (In the Underworld) | ??0,000,000 + 18,180,187 |
Unleashed (Wounded in the Underworld) | ??0,000,000 |
Unleashed | 900,360,230 |
Femme Fatale (Powered up) | 11,010,303 |
Femme Fatale | 16,785 |
Skills[]
Class Skills[]
- Authority of the Beast (A Rank): An Anti-Humanity Skill that enhances the skill holders' capacity to harm Heroic Spirits, Divine Spirits, and all organisms birthed of the "Mother's Womb". This Skill is held not solely by the 2nd Beast but shared amongst all the Magical Beasts birthed of her womb.[1]
- Independent Manifestation (B Rank): Lends the capacity to manifest independently within the temporal reality. Within seven days of manifestation, the Indian Ocean is smothered black; and Tiamat incessantly spawns Magical Beasts to the end of devouring humanity. However, as the body of the 2nd Beast is the ocean itself, it cannot make landfall. Therefore, the role of annihilating humanity is delegated to her children. At this rank, this Skill is furthermore a declaration of the holder’s presence across all of space-time and thereby grants immunity against existential threats by way of time paradox or the instantaneous imposition of death.[1]
In the 7th Singularity of Fate/Grand Order, the 2nd Beast overcomes her restriction against landfall by use of Self-Modification -- altering her horns into wing-like appendages and taking flight. Upon the eradication of the Sea of Life within her immediate environs by the Divine Authority of Quetzalcoatl, she is able to spontaneously regenerate her domain by dispensing tides of the Black Mud from the base of her feet.
- Self-Modification (EX Rank): Beast II can remold her Saint Graph through her Sea of Life. She can expand the scale of her standard Saint Graph (Femme Fatale), to a "Draconic Body" over 60 meters in height. In that form, Beast II is able to cancel any attacks ranked A++ or lower.[1]
Personal Skills[]
- Sea of Life (EX Rank): Tiamat's true Authority, it's the "Sea From Which Life Itself is Sprung". Because the sea circulates the True Ether that existed from the Genesis of the Earth, magical energy is infinitely supplied to Beast II while she's within the sea.
The movement by which the Sea of Life extends its domain is referred to as the Chaos Tide. The substance of the Sea of Life is a Black mud pollutes that Saint Graphs and that fundamentally remakes any organism that enters unto the Sea as a "Child of Tiamat" that bears an arbitrary selection of the following skills: Environmental Modification, Environmental Fusion, and Unit Mitosis. Furthermore, the Children of Tiamat are imposed with Cellular Compulsion (細胞強制, Saibō Kyōsei?), a cellular-level Geis — a Nitrogenous BaseWP Contract — that automatically renders them enemies of humanity.[1] Servants are no exception to the process. The weight of the black mud cannot be measured due to it being made of imaginary numbers, making its volume unlimited. In short, it is a four-dimensional pocket.[1] Kingu refers to the Sea as the Primordial Organism and the Sea of Chaos -- further stating that, amongst practitioners of Magecraft, the Black Mud is the substance referred to as the Mud of the Grail.[15]
- Self-Seal (C+++ Rank): A chain of self-mutilation that ties down Beast II. Although Beast II hated her grief of being banished for "not being needed anymore" by the collective unconsciousness of humanity, the depths of her consciousness accepted that as something inevitable. Beast II, who has the role "mother" as her foundation, possesses a desire to function as a patron of humanity to the very end. This Self-Sealing is something that became that form.
Beast II constantly seals herself. This self-inflicted pain is equivalent to giving herself damage that deals 50% of Beast II’s current HP every turn. In the rare cases where Beast II emerges from the sea while losing her self-control, the seal admonishes her for this and the damage is raised to 90% of her HP instead for a moment. This is why she has +++ in this Skill.[4]
- Nega-Genesis (A Rank): A Skill of the same variety as the 6th Beast's Nega-Messiah. A manifestation of a Conceptual Bounded Field (Genesis of the Earth) expressed within the proper continuity of the History of Man, consequently proffering a nullification against the Noble Phantasms of any Servants generated as an output of the above processes.[1][4] Specifically speaking, a barrier takes root against the Noble Phantasms of Servants with the attributes “Human” and “Star”.[4]
In the Babylonia anime, it is referred to as an Authority that allows Beast II to create a new world by overwriting the current one, similar to a Reality Marble. The barrier expands and denies all established forms of life, those whose lives are over and have died, allowing it to instantly destroy Servants and even Divine Spirits like Ishtar while giving her space to create new life. As such, only the living are permitted to exist within the bounds of Nega-Genesis as their lives are not yet over. Only Ritsuka Fujimaru, new Laḫmu that are created within it, King Hassan and Fou are able to move in it without being destroyed.[16]
- Monstrous Strength (A++ Rank): One’s ability as a monster. This Skill raises the user’s Strength. It is at about the highest possible level. This is why Tiamat’s Strength is that of a Giant when she makes the black mud into her body and manifests in her "Draconic body".[1][4] At the moment, only Tiamat and Kingprotea possesses this skill at EX rank.[17].
Noble Phantasm[]
The form of her brain, which is her core, has nothing that can possibly be said to be a Noble Phantasm.[4]
Other Capabilities[]
- Potnia Theron: Due to being worshipped as an Earth Mother Goddess, Tiamat had the power of creation that originated from the forgotten goddess of Çatalhöyük.[14] This Authority allowed Tiamat to function as a mobile creature factory that can "birth" an infinite amount of magical beasts, provided she had the resources.[18] These magical beasts, as Tiamat's offspring, are all created from one maternal body, which has limits; to create a greater number of beasts and a wider variety of species, a larger "womb" is needed. When given to Gorgon, a Temple was created as a sort of factory to achieve this rapid birthing, with magical beasts being birthed using the flesh of humans; for example, one piece of flesh could create three Uridimmus, and three pieces of flesh could create one Ugallu.[15] By using the endless magical energy supply from her true Authority, the Sea of Life, Tiamat could create millions of Lahmus in a few seconds, with each of them boasting power on par with the magical beast Ugallu. The most powerful creatures she created were the Bel Laḫmu, who possessed magical energy that surpassed that of a Demon God.[10]
- Regression to the Age of Gods: Tiamat is able to reproduce mysteries that predate Magic, by regressing to the Jurassic Age Tiamat was able to use the Sea of Life to remodel her Saint Graph and transform into her "Draconic body" form, which turned her from a Servant possessing Divinity into an actual God.[13][19]
Hypothesized Capabilities[]
Paradox Restoration[]
Romani Archaman and Gilgamesh hypothesize that Tiamat's existence as the Mother of Genesis renders as a Law of Nature the "fact" that she is "the first to be born into the World, and the last to die." That is to say, so long as another life exists within the same "World" as Tiamat, she may be incapable of dying.
Romani Archaman terms this capability "Paradox Restoration" -- and for the purpose of neutralizing the phenomenon, Gilgamesh plots to entrap Tiamat within the Underworld (冥界, Meikai?, lit. "World of Death") domain of Ereshkigal, making use of its nature as a "World" wherein the only "life" that is properly recognized to exist are those existences subjectively defined as "the Living"at Ereshkigal's whim. Furthermore, as the domain was in part originally created to restrain and confine rogue gods, the Sanctions of the Underworld exert a strong Anti-Divinity effect by default, and would therefore hypothetically weaken Tiamat.[13]
In practice, however, it is unclear that Paradox Restoration is indeed one of Tiamat's actual capabilities, or whether the actions taken against her were in fact effective in neutralizing the phenomenon.
Forms and Alternate Versions[]
Femme Fatale[]
After obtaining the Holy Grail that Goetia stored within the heart of Kingu, the Sea of Life initially manifests a human-scale body known as Femme FataleWP (ファム・ファタール, Famu Fatāru?). It appears as a woman with light blue hair clad in leg and arm restraints, with features that represent the planet, large horns that symbolize the land, and eyes that reflect the inner sea of the planet. Gilgamesh refers to this as Tiamat's Cerebral Corpus; it is suggested to represent whatever remains of Tiamat's mind or consciousness. Upon partial awakening, her Cerebral Corpus is stained in red and black in a manner reminiscent of Dark Sakura.
Abilities[]
Without fully awakening due to being sealed, Tiamat is able to damage Chaldea's SHEBA 02, 06, and 09 by causing spatial rifts all over Mesopotamia and birth over one hundred million Laḫmu capable of spreading all over Mesopotamia in less than half a day.[8][9] After receiving the Holy Grail, Tiamat is only able to manifest her Cerebral Corpus in the form of "Femme Fatale" due to the seal still restraining her arms and legs. In this form, Tiamat possesses an ultra-ultra-ultra-class Magical Reactor (超々々級魔力炉心, Chōchōchō-kyū Maryoku Roshin?) core with seven times the magical energy of a Holy Grail.[10]
When Chaldea finally faces her in the Persian Gulf, the Magical Energy inside her body is 16,785, and she releases from her body as much energy as a Hydrogen BombWP just by screaming.[10][2] Tiamat's screams and the resulting shockwaves are used by her as a method of attack while the Babylonia anime adaptation has her mere presence generate large thunderstorms as she approaches land.[2] When she powers up, her mana rapidly surpasses 11,000,000.[2] Romani Archaman also claimed that had she fired at that moment she would have blasted Uruk even from that distance.[10] She is seemingly destroyed by Ishtar's An Gal Tā Kigal Shē.
Unleashed[]
Following the annihilation of the Cerebral Corpus, the Sea of Life manifests Tiamat in the form of a Titan (巨人, Kyojin?)—later demonstrated to be capable of flight by the use of her Wing-Horns (角翼, Kakuyoku?). It is suggested that this form is Tiamat's main body.[2]
Abilities[]
After voluntarily letting Ishtar destroy her body with An Gal Tā Kigal Shē, Tiamat restructures her Saint Graph into a mega-structure post dispersion, increasing its scale. With an Authority that had not been seen since the era of Genesis, Tiamat also drastically increases her body mass.[10] In this "Titan" form, Tiamat is said to be a perfect being with no physical or mythical shortcomings,[11] with enough Magical Energy to travel between stars; combined with the numerous primordial species preserved inside her body, Romani notes that Tiamat has the capacity to be an Ark of the Gods.[10] In this state her mana reaches 900,360,230.[2] Not even aliens would be able to take her down. Even if both Quetzalcoatl and Ishtar had their full-powered authorities and the help of any other powers left in Mesopotamia they wouldn't be able to damage Tiamat.[10] Tiamat boasts impressive durability and even the combined efforts of Quetzalcoatl's Xiuhcoatl and Gorgon's Pandemonium Cetus are only able to destroy her right horn without her main body taking any damage.[12] In this state, Tiamat surpasses the power of any Heroic Spirit as even the Chains of Heaven formed from Kingu's Enuma Elish was only able to momentarily restrain her movements before she broke them, even though according to Gilgamesh that feat was equal to any other in Enkidu's life,[13] a being whose combat strength is roughly the same as that of Gilgamesh during his prime.[20] It is theorized that only Gugalanna, the greatest and strongest Divine Beast, would be capable of stopping her on her tracks for a day.[11]
The Babylonia anime has Tiamat in this form be able to create large pink circular barriers around herself for defensive purposes.[21]
Even at her weakest, wounded after falling to the Underworld and receiving Ereshkigal's punishment, Tiamat's Authority is still powerful enough to corrupt the Underworld by spreading at an enormous speed,[13] even though Ereshkigal is regarded as absolute law inside her domain and all deities are left powerless within it if she so chooses.[22]
Draconic Corpus[]
In the circumstance that Tiamat faces a severe threat, she enacts Self-Modification and Saint Graph Dilation Operations (霊基膨張工程, Reiki Bouchou Koutei?) to assume a Draconic Body (竜体, Ryuutai?)—referred to as her "true appearance". After the Draconic Body is imposed with the "Concept of Death" by the "Old Man of the Mountain", Da Vinci confirms that Tiamat's Saint Graph Core is situated within its brain.[13]
Abilities[]
Tiamat is able grow her Saint Graph and reboot her magical reactor once more by regressing to the Jurassic Age, gaining the body of a god, healing all her wounds and manifesting her true form, "Draconic Body".[13] In this state, her strength is like that of a giant and she becomes immune to attacks ranked A++ or lower.[1] She is no longer a Divine Spirit, but an actual God.[13]
Although Tiamat's combat capabilities and defenses are indeed the strongest upon assuming her Draconic Corpus, Jaguar Man comments that this is in reality Tiamat in her weakest, most vulnerable state, likely due to the Underworld still restraining her Authority.[13] This is seen in her Magical Energy signature. In the Underworld it had been reduced from 900,360,230 to ??0,000,000. After transforming it only increases 18,180,187.[19]
The Babylonia anime adaptation has Tiamat in her true form able to shoot large destructive black lasers from her eyes, create tsunamis of the Sea of Life, and grow Laḫmu out her body.[16]
Tiamat is ultimately defeated in the Babylonia Singularity due to multiple factors. Mainly Merlin transforming the Sea of Life into flowers draining her power and King Hassan not only severing her wings but granting her the concept of "death" by degrading her Saint Graph into a normal Servants' Saint Graph pattern. These two attacks were able to weaken her enough so that the rest of Ritsuka's party could keep damaging her until Archer Gilgamesh ultimately dealt the finishing blow with Ea by destroying her weak spot in the head and therefore collapsing her Saint Graph.[13]

Development[]
Creation and Conception[]
Tiamat was designed by Kotetsu Yamanaka in Fate/Grand Order.[1][4] Her scenario writer is Kinoko Nasu in Fate/Grand Order.[4]
It is a digression, but Tiamat was taken into consideration as a boss of a raid event when planning "Fate/Grand Order" in 2014. She is an anthropomorphism of the sea, someone similar to a generator that produces powerful Magical Beasts, and she was depicted as an unequalled beautiful woman that dissolves into the chaotic mud. During the moment Beast II appears, "Fate/Grand Order’s" image… becomes a fun Starship TroopersWP. It is also a service character that makes a homage to Dark Sakura of "Fate/stay night". Revising that design is for some reason, two times more appealing, as long as you can see "Ah, it is a genealogy of that Dark Sakura."[4]
Comment from Illustrator[]
"I joined together rivers/harvests and destruction (clear streams and sludge) growing wild as in the color image (of the black + red stripes) of Dark Sakura. I aimed at a simple silhouette of a little girl with gigantic horns + hiding her breasts.
Monster Form: For the MAP plan and on the occasion of expressing her parts, I crammed as many details of gigantic structures in order to potentially put them for another use. (I was thinking something like walking on a road above her horns.)" (Kotetsu Yamanaka)[4]

Profile
One of the creator deities of Mesopotamian myth.
The gods were born from the union of the freshwater Abzu and the saltwater Tiamat. Then, the gods rebelled against their father, and seized authority over the world from him.
Tiamat quietly approved of her children’s actions. It was proof that her love for her children outweighed her love for her husband.
However, the gods then turned their blades on Tiamat. Tiamat wailed and raged, birthing eleven new Magical Beasts to oppose the gods.
At the end of the war, Tiamat and the Eleven Beasts were destroyed.
The gods split Tiamat’s corpse in two, and used them to form the heavens and earth. It is said that this ritual created the world of humans.

The black mud is also included in Tiamat’s height. However, the mud is made of imaginary numbers, so her weight is unquantifiable.
Meanwhile, Tiamat’s volume is infinite. In other words, she is a four-dimensional pocket.
Unlock: Primal Planet, Admiring the Sky
Tiamat is the womb that was cast aside after the world was created.
She is the Maternal Sea who was used as the soil to give birth to life, but once the Earth’s environment settled and ecosystems were established, Tiamat was deemed unnecessary and driven out into the world of imaginary numbers. (The Inner World. Lifeless imaginary number space, not a parallel universe.)
Because the Earth’s ecosystems were established, Tiamat, who randomly designs life, was no longer needed.
The goddess became nothing more than an obstacle to the process by which life forms acquired the intelligence determined by the planet.
Since then, Tiamat has been waiting in the world of imaginary numbers for her chance to return to Earth.

[Class Skills]
- Authority of the Beast: A
This can be considered an anti-humanity Skill.
It is an ability that is especially effective against Heroic Spirits, Divine Spirits, and all things born from the mother’s body.
This Skill is not possessed solely by the Second Beast, but also by all Magical Beasts she gives birth to.
- Independent Manifestation: B
The Skill to manifest independently in the current world.
Seven days after manifestation, the Indian Ocean will be smothered black.
Once Tiamat manifests, she unceasingly gives birth to Magical Beasts, and sets out to devour humanity.
However, the body of the Second Beast is the ocean itself, so it cannot move onto land. Instead, it is her children’s role to mop up the human race.
Furthermore, this Skill is an expression of the holder’s presence across all of space-time, rendering her immune to attacks by methods such as time travel paradoxes, and canceling out all instant death attacks as well.
- Self-Modification: EX
Tiamat can remold her own Saint Graph using the black Sea of Life.
Her body can grow from its standard Saint Graph (Femme Fatale) into that of a dragon over 60 meters in length.
Once Tiamat becomes a dragon, attacks against her of A++ rank or lower are nullified.
Unlock: Primal Planet, Admiring the Sky
- Sea of Life: EX
The Second Beast itself is the sea which gives rise to life.
It cycles the True Ether of primordial Earth, so its mana supply within this sea is infinite.
All who are caught and drowned in the black mud are randomly assigned the following Skills: Self-Modification, Life Transformation, Life Fusion, and Individual Multiplication.
Once these organisms exit the sea to make landfall, they are forced into a cellular-level geis — a nitrogenous base contract (amino-geis) — and automatically become enemies of humankind.
- Nega-Genesis: A
A Skill of the same type as Nega-Messiah, which is possessed by the Sixth Beast.
It is a conceptual bounded field which completely overturns modern evolutionary theory and the predictions of Earth’s genesis.
Thanks to this ability, the Second Beast has acquired a strong resistance to the Noble Phantasms of Servants created by correct human history.
- Monstrous Strength: A++
One’s ability as a monster. This Skill raises the user’s Strength.
It is at about the highest possible level. This is why Tiamat’s Strength is that of a titan when she makes the black mud into her body and manifests in her draconic form.
Unlock: Primal Planet, Admiring the Sky
With the collapse of the cornerstone of anthropic principle, Tiamat managed to return to this world with the power of the Holy Grail. And yet, she was in middle of a slumber.
Setting aside wherever it was caused by Merlin’s magecraft, she awoke from that sleep due to the attack from Chaldea and set out to eradicate mankind in accordance with her instincts.
While there is resentment・hatred・sadness for being discarded as someone who had already served her purpose, this is also a deed of indulging in the “joy” of once again repainting the Earth’s ecosystem and having everything come back to the mother.
Her Class was determined by this true nature described above.
The goddess of genesis and the likes are nothing but fake names.
Deserted by humans, this is one of the most rejected great disasters in human history.
Its name is Beast II.
One of the seven human vices, the beast carrying the principle of "regression."
Unlock: Primal Planet, Admiring the Sky
It is impossible to confirm if Tiamat possesses anything resembling a personality.
Perhaps she lost her intellect, or perhaps she never had one to begin with. Either is acceptable.
The only meaning to her existence is to create, raise, and love her children. Thus, she set out to make war against humanity for declaring that it has no need for her.
It is the functioning of an extremely primitive system: “If I do not exterminate modern humanity, I will be killed.”
•Motivations・Attitude towards the Master
One of seven billion. An obvious target to be obliterated.
While the Second Beast is a repulsive invader to humanity, humans are terrifying aliens (extraterrestrials) to the Second Beast.

単体で現世に現れるスキル。
一度顕現してしまえば七日に渡りインド洋を塗り替える。
顕現してからは休む事なく魔獣たちを生み出し、人類を食い尽くす。
反面、ビーストⅡ本体は海そのものなので陸地にあがる事はできない。
人類掃討は子供である魔獣たちの仕事となる。
また、このスキルは“既にどの時空にも存在する”在り方を示しているため、時間旅行を用いたタイムパラドクス等の攻撃を無効にするばかりか、あらゆる即死系攻撃をキャンセルする。

黒い生命の海を用いて自分の霊基を作り替える。
通常の霊基状態(ファム・ファタール)から、全長60メートルを超す竜体に成長する。
竜体になったティアマトはランクA++以下の攻撃を無効化する。
アンロック条件:「原初の星、見上げる空」をクリアすると開放
○生命の海:EX
ビーストⅡは生命を生み出す海そのものである。
地球創世記の真エーテルを循環させている為、この海の中では魔力は無限に供給される。
黒泥に囚われ、海中に沈んだ者は自己改造、生態変化、生態融合、個体増殖といったスキルがランダムに付加される。
海から地上に出る際にはビーストIIと細胞クラスでのギアス……塩基契約(アミノギアス)しなければならず、自動的に人類の敵になってしまう。
○ネガ・ジェネシス:A
ビーストⅥが持つ『ネガ・メサイヤ』と同類のスキル。

それがマーリンの魔術によるものかはさておき、カルデアの攻撃によりその眠りから目覚め、その本能に従って人類掃討に乗り出した。
それは用済みとして捨てられた恨み・憎しみ・悲しみもあるが、
もう一度地球の生態系を塗り替え、すべての母に返り咲く『喜び』に耽る行為でもある。
以上の本性をもって彼女のクラスは決定された。
創世の女神など偽りの名。
其は人間が置き去りにした、人類史に最も拒絶された大災害。
その名をビーストⅡ。
七つの人類悪のひとつ、『回帰』の理を持つ獣である。
アンロック条件:「原初の星、見上げる空」をクリアすると開放
人格らしきものは確認できない。
理想をなくしたのか、はじめから理性がないのか、どちらともとれる。
ただ子供を産み、育て、愛でる事だけを存在意義としているが、これを否定された為に『おまえはいらない』と決議した人類との戦いに乗り出した。
『現人類を駆除しないと自分が殺される』という、きわめて原始的なシステムで稼働している。
○動機・マスターへの態度
七十億分の一。当たり前の抹殺対象。
人類にとってビーストIIはおぞましい侵略者(インベーダー)だが、ビーストIIにとっても人間はおそろしい異星人(エイリアン)なのである。 - Authority of the Beast: A

1: My Lord, what precisely is the Abyss (深淵, Shinen?)?
2: Is there actually something further down than the Underworld?
Gilgamesh:
There is. The World of Mesopotamia comprises of Heaven and Earth. That which here lies below the Earth known as the Underworld -- and deeper still there rests the Abyss.
The Abyss is an Ocean of Void (無の海, Mu no Umi?). It is from those dark waters that the God Apsu and the Goddess Tiamat manifested, crafting the World of Mesopotamia.
If it must be described, it is the Sea of Dawn (黎明の海, Reimei no Umi?), which existed before the creation of life.
Being that the God Enki has at present vacated his posting as the Administrator of the Abyss, were one to plunge into it now, there would be no returning.

深淵とは無の海だ。その暗い海よりアプスー神とティアマト神は現れ、メソポタミアの世界を作った。

[] Fate/EXTRA CCC - BB (Moon Cancer) Matrix Class: Moon Cancer
Name: BB
Master: None
Noble Phantasm: Cursed Cutting Crater (C. C. C.)
Keyword: Advanced Level AI, Khakkhara of Domination
Strength: ★, Endurance: ★, Agility: ★, Magic: ★, Luck: ★
Golden Grail: EX, Self-Modification: EX, Potnia Theron: EXKeywords 01 - Cursed Cutting Crater (C. C. C.)
An attack on the world by BB in control of the Moon Cell.
Also called the spiritron imaginary pit.
A World Purge through event rewriting that makes maximum use of the EX skill "Conception of All Animals" BB has acquired.
The goddess who is the mother of earth mother goddesses that created earth is, in other words, the 'root' that created all creation. This anti-world Noble Phantasm outputs that information through an ultra-precise 3D printer and crushes the present world with the world the user desires.
The space eroded by BB becomes imaginary space and a curse that consumes reality. "CCC", as the name suggests, is a cursed pit that bores out reality.
In addition to scattering all objects inside on an atomic level and reconstructing them, it is capable of overwriting and reprinting information in fields such as luck and coincidence. While theoretical, it is also thought possible to distort the time axis by interfering with gravitational fields and rewrite the law of cause and effect.
◆
When used in combat, BB's familiars, the shapeshifters, engulf the target and, after turning into a sphere, are wiped out of existence along with the target and the whole dimension.
Normally, a structure in which sense of values can be shared cannot be created in the Far Side of the Moon, which is an imaginary space. What established BB's internal world as the Sakura Labyrinth was the power of this Noble Phantasm.
02 - Advanced Level AI
Artificial intelligences configured according to their programs.
In this age, they are treated as things that "function as programs", but "do not exist as actual beings". In other words, things that "are" right in front of your eyes but "are not". They are merely mechanisms for smooth progression of human lives.
The same applies in the SE.RA.PH. They are virtual lifeforms that are created along with the commencement of the Holy Grail War and disposed along with its conclusion.
Humanoid virtual lifeforms at the SE.RA.PH include NPCs that perform single objectives, AIs who have been granted capabilities for self-judgement, and advanced level AIs who have been entrusted with capabilities for self-judgement and management of sections.
Advanced level AIs are beings made to efficiently promote the Moon Cell's primary objective of "human observation". As perfect reproductions of humans, they have been programmed with even souls, but the souls only "exist" and their contents are colorless.
Virtual lifeforms made in the SE.RA.PH are reset with each round of the Holy Grail War. NPCs and AIs return to zero, but advanced level AIs retain just their personas while their records are reset—as if they never existed.
When the Holy Grail War is over, the only one left alive is the Master standing at the top. This applies not only to the Masters but also to the virtual lifeforms made in the SE.RA.PH.
◆
It appears that BB, like Sakura, is an advanced level AI entrusted with management of Masters' health. However, as she is rampaging for reasons unknown, the methods of "managing the Masters" have become extreme.
03 - Khakkhara of Domination
The teacher's pointer that BB carries.
A device that lets her make full use of her authority as an advanced level AI. Although limited to the Far Side of the Moon, this allows BB to modify the spiritron laws within the SE.RA.PH.
◆
"Ten Crowns of Domination" worn by the Beast of Babylon converted into a teacher's pointer.
This is the male principle corresponding to the female principle of the seven-headed beast, and its true nature is a phallus (erect rod).
The symbol of the king of the world who was granted throne and authority by a great dragon and received the right to, for 42 months, spit out as many insolent words as desired and desecrate all things.
The beast's heads were the seven hills of the Roman Empire... Capitolium, Palatium, Aventinus, Esquilinus, Caelius, Quirinalis, Viminalis. In other words, they meant the Roman Empire itself, and the ten horns symbolized the emperors... Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius, Nero, Vespasianus, Titus, Galba, Otho, Vitellius.01 - C. C. C.
ムーンセルを掌握したBBによる、世界を犯す攻撃。
霊子虚構陥穽とも。
BBが獲得したEXスキル『百獣受胎』を最大限に活用した、事象書き換えによるワールド・パージ。
大地を創造した地母神たちの母にあたる女神とは、即ち、万物を生み出した「根源」である。
この宝具はその情報を超精密立体プリンターとして出力し、使用者の望むままの世界で、いまある世界を握りつぶす対界宝具である。
BBに侵食された空間は虚数空間となり、現実を蝕む呪いとなる。『C.C.C.』はその名の通り、現実をえぐり切り取る呪いの大穴なのだ。
その場にある物体を原子単位までばらばらにして再構成する他、運不運、偶然といった場の情報を書き換えて再出力する事もできる。
理論上の話になるが、重力場に干渉すれば時間軸を歪めて因果律を書き換える事も可能とされる。
◆
戦闘に使用した場合、BBの使い魔であるシェイプシフターが対象を包み、球体化したのち、対象と共に次元ごと消滅する。
本来、虚数空間である月の裏側において、価値観を共有できる構造体は創造できない。
BBの心象世界をサクラ迷宮として成立させていたのも、この宝具の力である。
02 - 上級AI
プログラムによって構成された人工知能。
この時代では『プログラムとして機能しているが』
『存在として成立しないもの』とされている。
つまり、目の前に『有る』が『無い』もの。
人間の生活をスムーズに進めるための機構にすぎない。
それはSE.RA.PHにおいても同様で、彼らは聖杯戦争開始と共に作られ、終了と共に廃棄される仮想生命体とされる。
SE.RA.PHにおける人間型の仮想生命は、単一の目的だけをこなすNPC、自己判断資格を与えられたAI、自己判断資格とセクション管理を任された上級AIがある。
上級AIはムーンセルの主目的である『人間観察』を効率的に進めるために作られたもの。
人間を完全に再現しており、魂すらプログラムされているが魂は『有る』だけで、その中身は無色のまま。
SE.RA.PHに作られた仮想生命たちは、その回の聖杯戦争が終了するとリセットされる。
NPCやAIはゼロに返るが、上級AIはパーソナルだけ残し、その記録はリセット————無かった事にされる。
聖杯戦争が終わった時、生き残るのは頂点に立ったマスターだけ。
それはマスターだけではなく、SE.RA.PHに作られた仮想生命たちも共通なのだ。
◆
BBは桜と同じく、マスターたちの健康管理を任された上級AIと思われる。
しかし原因不明の暴走により、『マスターを管理する』 方法が極端なものになってしまったようだ。
03 - 支配の錫杖
BBが持つ教鞭。
上級AIとしての権限をフルに使用できるデバイス。
月の裏側限定ではあるが、これによってBBはSE.RA.PH内の霊子法則を変更する事ができる。
◆
バビロンの獣がかぶる『十の支配の王冠』を教鞭に変えたもの。
これは七つの首の獣が女性原理に対応する男性原理であり、その本質はファロス(まっすぐな棒)だからである。
大いなる竜から王座と権威を与えられ、さらに42ヶ月の間、どれだけ不遜な言葉を吐いてもよく、あらゆるものを冒涜する権利を与えられたという世界の王の象徴。
獣の首はローマ帝国の七つの丘……
カピトリウム、パラティウム、アウェンティヌス、エスクイリヌス、カエリウス、クイリナリス、ウィミナリス、すなわちローマ帝国そのものを意味し、十の角はその皇帝……
アウグストゥス、ティベリウス、カリグラ、クラウディウス、ネロ、ウェスパシアヌス、ティトゥス、ガルバ、 オト、ウィテリウス……を象徴している。Skills 01 - Golden Grail [EX]
The golden grail that BB owns. Also called the Holy Grail.
A negative grail that grants its owner's impudent and selfish wishes.
The grail held by the great whore of Babylon who appears in the Revelation to John. Though it is a fake Holy Grail, it is for that reason that it has become a "genuine" Holy Grail that grants the desires of humans regardless of right or wrong.
To the Christians who considered honorable poverty a virtue at that time, a grail molded from a symbol of wealth like gold no doubt had connotations of corrupt wealth, avarice, and vanity of trying to adorn oneself.
As the grail held by the great whore of Babylon who personifies the Roman Empire, this grail clearly symbolizes treasures on earth, which is the inverse of the Christ's words "Do not store up treasures on earth."
◆
"I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was full of blasphemous names, and it had seven heads and ten horns."
According to the Book of Revelation, this is the description of the beast of destruction that appeared in the Holy City and the woman straddling that beast. A huge beast with sevens heads like a hydra appeared from the sea and landed at the Holy City. This beast and the woman, while two, are as one, and it is impossible to think of them separately.
As the woman was said to give birth to all evil, those who were imprudent or greedy could not resist her allure and became corrupted by that grail.
On a side note, the red Saber who calls herself the emperor was regarded the same as this beast and viewed as an enemy by the believers after her death.
02 - Self-Modification [EX]
A skill that allows restructuring of oneself.
AIs made by the Moon Cell were given an absolute command: "You must not improve own function."
However, BB, who escaped from that yoke due to her breakdown, began to expand her own functions. To boost her calculation power, she preyed upon/disassembled NPCs, AIs, and finally, Servants with black noise, then used as her own memory.
Though they are like appendix building additions that do not heed self-collapse, as the result, BB has changed into a hyper level AI with enormous capacity.
That condition resembles a city on reclaimed land that continues to build while submerging or Frankenstein's monster.
03 - Potnia Theron [EX]
Conception of All Animals.
The authority of the goddesses that BB compiled and absorbed from the abyss of the mooncell.
It embodies the power of all creation possessed by the mother goddesses—originating from a forgotten goddess approximately 8000 years ago (the goddess of Çatalhöyük) and branching to Tiamat and Cybele, Ishtar, Inanna, Anat, Astarte, Gaia, Hera, Artemis, Aphrodite, Demeter, Athena, etc.
Many are depicted with mural crowns. This is because many of these goddesses were also guardian deities of cities.
◆
The symbols of this authority include holes opening the earth and the sky (caves and the moon), whirling tides and waterspouts of the sea, calderas of the volcanoes, etc., and from these, evils that bring all manners of death are birthed. However, after these evils have spread death, they promise certain good harvest and fertility. This authority is none other than the power of bringing death as well as giving life.
The earth mother is worshipped by the people and protects them as a guardian deity, but at the same time, she is the very sacrifice that nurtures them with crops born from her body and beasts of the fields and the forests.
The earth mother nurtures men with her flesh and blood, kills men as time passes to restores herself with her own nourishment, and once again nurtures men with her restored flesh and blood.
This process is the cycle of the food chain, and this cycle of life and death can be said to be the true nature of the earth mother. With this authority, most of the goddesses gave birth to countless monsters and giants, posing threats to gods and men, or they gave birth to heroes, thus protecting people.
As representative examples, Tiamat and Gaia became threats, while Hera is a mother of heroes.
◆
Those born on this earth cannot defy the authority of the mother goddess, as that would mean rebelling against the very system of life. However, when they leave this earth, head to space, and end the childhoood as intelligent lifeforms, they will have broken this authority.
The wish of Çatalhöyük is the coming of that day.01 - 黄金の杯:[EX]
BBが持つ黄金の杯。聖杯とも。
持ち主の厚顔で自分勝手な願い事を叶える負の聖杯。
ヨハネ黙示録にある、バビロンの大妖婦が持っていた杯。
偽聖杯であるが、偽の聖杯であるからこそ、正邪問わずに人間の欲望を叶える“本物の”聖杯となっている。
当時の清貧を美徳としたキリスト教徒にとって、金などという財の象徴で形作られた杯は、まさしく汚れた富と強欲、そして己を飾ろうとする虚偽を意味するものであった。
ローマ帝国の化身であるバビロンの大妖婦が手にする杯という時点で明瞭であるが、この杯はキリストの「地に富を積んではならない」と言う言葉を反転させた、地上の富を象徴している。
◆
“わたしは、赤い獣にまたがっている一人の女を見た。
この獣は、全身至るところ神を冒涜する数々の名で覆われており、七つの頭と十本の角があった。”
これは黙示録曰く、聖都に現れた滅びの獣と、その獣にまたがっていた女の描写である。
七つの頭を持つヒュドラの如き巨大な獣は海より現れ、聖都に上陸したという。
この獣と女は二つで一つであり、切り離して考える事はできない。
女はすべての邪悪を生み出すものとされ、短慮なる者、欲深き者は彼女の誘惑に逆らえず、その杯によって堕落したという。
余談ではあるが、皇帝を名乗る赤いセイバーはその死後、信徒たちにこの獣と同一視され敵視されたという。
02 - 自己改造:[EX]
自身を改造するスキル。
ムーンセルによって作られたAIには“機能を向上させてはならない”という絶対命令が備わっている。
しかし、故障によりそのくびきから逃れたBBは自己機能の拡張を始めてしまった。
計算能力を高めるためにNPC、AI、はてはサーヴァントまで黒いノイズで捕食・分解し、自らのメモリとして使用。
自己崩壊をいとわない後付け増築だが、結果、BBは膨大な容量を持つ超級AIと化した。
その有様は沈水しながらも建築を続ける埋め立て地の都市か、フランケンシュタインの怪物のようでもある。
03 - 百獣母胎:[EX]
百獣母胎。
それはBBがムーンセルの深淵より編纂し、取り込んだ女神の権能である。
約8000年前のすでに名の失われた女神(チャタル・ヒュユクの女神)より発し、 ティアマットやキュベレー、イシュタル、イナンナ、アナテ、アスタルテ、ガイア、ヘラ、アルテミス、アフロディーテ、デメテル、アテナなどに派生した、母なる女神の持つ万物を生み出す力の具現である。
多くは城壁冠の形をとってイメージされる。
これはこれらの女神の多くが、同時に都市の守護神でもあったからだ。
◆
大地や空に開いた門(洞窟や月)、海の渦潮や竜巻、火山の火口などに象徴され、そこからあらゆる死をもたらす害悪を生み出す。
ただし、その害悪は死をまき散らした後、確かな豊穣や多産を約束するもの。
この権能は死と同時に生を生み出す力に他ならない。
大地母神は人々によって崇められ、それらを加護する守護神であると同時に、その身から生まれ出る穀物や作物、野や森の獣によって人々を養う犠牲そのものでもある。
大地母神は自らの血肉によって人を養い、そして時を経ればその人を殺して自らの糧として己の血肉を回復し、またその回復した血肉で人を養う。
この過程は食物連鎖の円環そのものでもあり、この生と死の循環こそが大地母神の本質と言っていい。
ほとんどの女神はこの権能で、無数の怪物や巨人を生んで神々や人の脅威となり、あるいは英雄を生み、それから人々を守った。
その代表例は、脅威となったならばティアマットやガイア、英雄の母ならばヘラである。
◆
この大地に生まれたものは、母なる神の権能には逆らえない。それは生命のシステムそのものに反逆する事だからだ。
しかし大地を離れ、宇宙を目指し、知性体としての幼年期を終えた時こそ、この権能が打ち破れる事だろう。
チャタル・ヒュユクの願いは、その日が訪れる事にある。Setting 01 - Spiritron Imaginary Pit
Spiritron Imaginary Pit.
The official name of this stage.
Formerly just an imaginary number space for storing malignant information, "this place" was established as a real number space in the present, past, and future by the fact that BB had reached the Moon Cell core. It was reconstructed by her hands into the “far side of the moon” where even Masters can exist.
◆
With the power of the primordial goddess at hand, BB succeeded in quantifying the "nothingness" before the birth of life. She transformed into the master of the imaginary number space where both time and space and ambiguous.
Although the Moon Cell cannot be hacked no matter how much time is taken, BB took over it by placing herself in "unlimited time".
02 - The remnants of peaceful days
During the preliminaries, when Kiara liberated her free will, she was unable to control that status condition and went into overload.
Since NPCs can only do routine work, they ignored self-destructing Sakura as something "non-existent", and since the Moon Cell's check only takes place at the end of the day in the preliminaries, Sakura was at risk of termination.
Witnessing this condition, [Kishinami Hakuno] called out to her, "Are you okay."
The observation that she "is here" by another let Sakura recover the unconscious on the verge of termination, and due to the nursing afterwards, she gained an ego that clearly "wanted to be here". Her self-termination was averted.
◆
What happened afterwards no longer need to be said.
When the next day comes, everything will be erased by the Moon Cell. Wanting to continue this one day miracle, Sakura used her advanced AI privilege to repeat "the day she came to know [Kishinami Hakuno]" for 69 days.
However, as days passed, Sakura became distressed by her self-contradiction as an AI and the facts surrounding [Kishinami Hakuno].
"Masters participating in the Holy Grail War will all die except one. No, to begin with, [Kishinami Hakuno] is..."
Sakura continued to be distressed by her selfish desire to continue the loop for eternity and her feelings for [Kishinami Hakuno]. In conclusion, she chose to seal the 69 days worth of memory... the "love" she acquired, so she could return to being a normal AI. AIs cannot delete records. Because of that, she moved the memory to a backup frame to reset herself.
She believed that to be the most correct choice for [Kishinami Hakuno].
◆
But even if recollections of the mind are lost, memories recorded by the body live on. Though she should have forgotten everything and returned to being a normal AI, she was shaken by unidentified emotional values every time she talked with [Kishinami Hakuno].
Meanwhile, the backup to whom the memories were transplanted couldn't tolerate herself like that, and she decided to act as BB the rebel who destroys the Moon Cell's system for a certain objective then made her move.
The timing when she seized the Far Side of the Moon was "the Holy Grail War: the end of fifth round ~ before the start of the sixth round". The four who were not eliminated yet—[Kishinami Hakuno], Leo, Rin, and Rani—and the irregular, Jinako, were kidnapped to the Far Side in the middle of the Holy Grail War while they were still alive.
Masters Matou Shinji, Gatou, and Julius were moved to the imaginary space "0.00001 seconds before" the moment the firewall terminated them after their defeat from the Holy Grail War, prolonging their instants of life.
In either case, C. C. C. is a dream by BB. If the dreamer disappears, the world ought to return to the reality where nothing happened.
◆
On a yet another side note, everyday scenery of the prologue that [Kishinami Hakuno] saw in the nightmare was an artificial paradise modeled on the discarded 69 days.
After pulling [Kishinami Hakuno] to the Far Side, BB placed the digital body in the old school building, put it in a deep sleep, and locked them in an unwaking dream.
Normally, they would have lived peacefully in the looping everyday life, but the strong bond with their Servant or [Kishinami]'s will rejecting the peaceful everyday caused cracks in the artificial paradise, and [Kishinami Hakuno] came to notice the abnormality.
To put [Kishinami Hakuno] in a deep sleep once more, BB reset the school building and tried to remake the dream, but [Kishinami Hakuno] escaped the reset as well and leaped into an even deeper part of the imaginary space.
It was a bottom deeper than the bottom of Id. "Death of the collective unconscious" beneath the unconscious. What saved [Kishinami Hakuno] who leaped into a region even BB cannot reach was the voice of the Servant whose fate was shared with theirs.
Thus, the contract was sealed, and [Kishinami Hakuno] woke up in the old school building left in the Far Side.01 - 霊子虚構陥穽
霊子 虚構 陥穽。
この舞台の正式名称。
悪性情報を貯蔵するだけの虚数空間だった“ここ”は、BBがムーンセル中枢に到達した事実をもって、現在・過去・未来において実数空間として成立。
彼女の手によって、マスターたちでも存在できる“月の裏側”として再構築された。
◆
原初の女神の力を手に入れたBBは生命が生まれる前の『無』を数値化する事に成功。
時間も空間もあやふやな虚数空間の使い手に変革した。
どれほどの時間を要しようがハッキングできないムーンセルだが、BBは『無限の時間』の概念に自分を置く事で攻略した。
02 - 日々の名残
日々の名残:
予選中、キアラの手によって自由性を解放された彼女はそのステータス異常を制御できずに過負荷を起こした。
NPCたちはルーチンワークしかできないため、自壊しかけていた桜を“無い”ものとしてスルーし、予選ではムーンセルのチェックは一日の終わりにしか行われないため、桜は消滅の危機にあった。
その異常を目の当たりにした岸波白野は彼女に呼びかける。大丈夫か、と。
桜は“自分はここにいる”という他者からの観測を受けて消滅寸前だった無意識を持ち直し、その後の看病によって明確に“ここに在りたい”という自我を獲得。自己消滅から免れた。
◆
その後の事はもはや語るまでもない。
翌日になればすべてムーンセルの手によって消されてしまう。この、たった一日の奇蹟を続けたがった桜は上級AIの特権を使用して
“岸波白野と知り合った一日”を69日間、繰り返した。
しかし日が進むにつれ桜はAIとしての自己矛盾と、岸波白野を取り巻くある事実に苦しむ事になる。
“聖杯戦争に参加したマスターは、ひとりを除いてみな死亡する。いや、そもそも岸波白野は————”
桜は幸せな時間を永遠にループしていたという我欲と、岸波白野への思いに苦しみ続けた。
結論として、彼女は正常なAIに戻るため、69日に及ぶメモリー……獲得した“愛”を封印する道を選んだ。
AIには記録を消す事はできない。
そのため、バックアップの機体にメモリーを移動させる事で自らをリセットしたのだ。
それが岸波白野にとって、もっとも正しい選択と信じて。
◆
だが精神の記憶は失っても、肉体が記録した思い出は生き続ける。
すべてを忘れ正常なAIに戻ったはずの彼女は、岸波白野と話すたびに正体不明の感情値に揺れ動かされる事になる。
一方、メモリーを移植されたバックアップはそんな自分を許せず、ある目的のためムーンセルのシステムを破壊する反逆者・BBとして自らの方針を定め、行動を開始した。
彼女が月の裏側を掌握したタイミングは、現実時間で“聖杯戦争 五回戦終了~六回戦開始前”。
まだ敗退していなかった岸波白野、レオ、凛、ラニの四名、そしてイレギュラーのジナコは聖杯戦争の途中、生きている状態で月の裏側に拉致された。
間桐シンジ、ガトー、ユリウス、といったマスターは聖杯戦争で敗れた後、ファイヤーウォールによって消滅する“0.00001秒前”に虚数空間に移動させられ、一瞬の命を長らえていた。
どちらにせよ、C.C.C.はBBが見ていた夢である。
夢を見ていたものが消え去れば、世界はもとの、何事もなかった現実に戻るだろう。
◆
また、余談ではあるが岸波白野が悪夢として見た冒頭の日常風景は、捨てられた69日間をモデルにして作られた人工楽園である。
BBは岸波白野を月の裏側に引きずりこんだ後、旧校舎にその電脳体を安置させ、深い眠りに落とし、覚めない夢の中に閉じこめた。
通常ならループする日常の中で平和に過ごすのだが、サーヴァントとの強い繋がり、あるいは、安寧の日常を否定する岸波の意思によって人工楽園に綻びが生じ、岸波は異常に気がつくのだった。
BBはもう一度岸波白野を深い眠りに落とすため、校舎をリセットして夢をやり直そうとしたが、岸波はそのリセットからも逃れ、虚数空間の更なる深部に飛びこんでしまう。
そこはイドの底のさらに底。
無意識の下にある、“集合無意識の死”である。
BBでさえ手を出せない領域に飛びこんだ岸波白野を救ったのは、運命を共にするサーヴァントの声だった。
かくして契約は交わされ、岸波白野は月の裏側に残された旧校舎で目を覚ます事になる。 - ↑ 15.0 15.1 Fate/Grand Order - Babylonia: The Absolute Frontline in the War Against the Demonic Beasts - Section 9: The Mother of Demonic Beasts

Profile
From its gentle tone and graceful bearings, one would never guess that this is a “Noble Phantasm with a will” that possesses a fierce combat power.
The chains that fasten heavens and earth, regarded by the King of Heroes Gilgamesh as one of the strongest.
A doll created by the hands of the gods, and also an offshot of the earth that harmonizes・becomes one with nature.
A tragic weapon that underwent many adventures as the sole friend of the King of Heroes and, after acquiring a human heart, returned to dirt as a doll.
Level 1 Bond
Height/Weight: Variable
Source: Epic of Gilgamesh
Region: Mesopotamia
Alignment: True Neutral Gender: -
“If you tell me to fight, I’ll fight.
After all, it is not like I hate fighting”
Level 2 Bond
One of the oldest heroes described in the Epic of Gilgamesh. A weapon manufactured by the gods.
Originally, it was “a clay work that could transform into anything” produced by the gods.
It phantasmagorically changes its shape in accordance with circumstances.
Its whole body is equivalent to a weapon of gods.
However, it does not have the same mentality or emotions as people, and at first it was not all that different from a wild beast.
It has been said that, after appearing on this world, it became aware of much by meeting with a single sacred prostitute and eventually choose to take the shape of a person (as its basic form).
This appearance is something modeled after said sacred prostitute out of respect.
Level 3 Bond
Its combat strength is roughly the same as that of the King of Heroes Gilgamesh on his golden age.
In the battle against Gilgamesh described on the Epic, it displayed a performance on par to him, who is recognized as one of the strongest heroes in human history.
The first friend ever discovered by Gilgamesh, who was an aloof existence, and it too perceives Gilgamesh as its peerless friend.
After the fight on the city of Uruk, the friends Gilgamesh and Enkidu underwent many adventures, but it ultimately lost its life after the battle with the divine beast Gugalanna.
Level 4 Bond
Introverted, active and self-assured.
Usually it just loiters like a beautiful flower but, once it gets on the move, it becomes a frightening active monster that doesn’t wait, has no mercy and show no self-restrain.
Since they are life forms born from the Earth, it also finds humans “appealing”. But, because humans think of themselves as beings apart from nature due to their intelligence, they rank low as protection targets.
It feels that animals and plants are existences closer to itself and it mostly takes action in order to protect them.
That being said, since it had great curiosity (intellectual craving) to begin with, Enkidu regards conversations with humans as an enjoyment.
If said character has an appealing personality (a totalitarian brimming with philantropous mentality, and yet who thinks of himself as foremost), it will demonstrate respect and admiration from the bottom of its heart, feeling joy in support him as a friend.
Level 5 Bond
- Transfiguration: A
A unique skill in which parameter values are allotted in accordance to the situation from a prescribed comprehensive value. Enkidu’s greatest feature.
The higher the rank, higher the comprehensive value becomes.
At times it makes STR into A Rank, at times it makes END into A Rank.
However, because the conversion limits of parameters is set in stone, it cannot make all parameters into A Rank.
Enkidu possesses a comprehensive value of 30, and each parameter consume the respectively values: A-7, B-6, C-5, D-4, E-3.
- Presence Detection: A+
The highest rank of presence detection.
It is possible to sense presences from long distances by using the land as a medium.
- Consummated Shape: A
By making use of the magic energy of the land, it restores itself to its former shape.
So long there is a supply of magic energy from the land, Enkidu’s body (which was produced from the clay of the Age of Gods) will never collapse.
A powerful regeneration・restoration ability that is completely unprecedented.
However, the soul is a different matter.
Level 5 Bond
"O People, Lets Tie the Gods"
Rank: A++ Type: Anti-Purge
Enuma Elish.
Enkidu transforms its own body into a Divine Construct.
Becoming a linchpin that converted vast amounts of energy to pierce and tie the target.
Originally, Enkidu was a weapon dispatched by the gods in order to “restore Gilgamesh to god”.
The “Linchpin of Heavens” created so that gods and people would not separate, Gilgamesh.
Because such Gilgamesh revolted against the gods, it was charged with the role of binding and bringing him back to heavens.
However, Enkidu became Gilgamesh’s friend and, just like its friend wished, chose the path of using this “chain that restrains even heavens” for the sake of people.エルキドゥ - ランサー

キャラクター詳細
穏やかな口調、たおやかな仕草からは想像できないほど苛烈な戦闘能力を持った“意志持つ宝具”。
英雄王ギルガメッシュをして最強の一角と言わしめた、天と地を繋ぐ鎖。
神々の手によって作られた人形であり、自然と調和・一体化する大地の分身でもある。
英雄王の唯一の友として多くの冒険をこなし、心を得た後、人形として土に還った悲しき兵器。
アンロック条件: 絆レベルを1にすると開放
身長/体重:可変
出典:古代メソポタミア神話
地域:メソポタミア
属性:中立・中庸 性別:-
「戦えと言うのなら戦うよ。
僕は別に、戦いを嫌っているわけではないからね」
アンロック条件: 絆レベルを2にすると開放
ギルガメッシュ叙事詩に語られる最古の英雄のひとり。神々によって作り出された兵器。
もとは神々が作った“何にでも変形する粘土細工”だった。
状況に応じて変幻自在に形態を変化させる。
全身がイコール神々の武器にも等しい。
ただし、ヒトのような精神や感情を持たず、当初は野の獣と殆ど変わらないモノではあった。
地上に顕れて後、ひとりの聖娼と出会ったことで多くの認識を得て、やがて(基本形態として)ヒトの形態を取ることを選ぶようになったという。
この姿はその聖娼を尊重し、模したもの。
アンロック条件: 絆レベルを3にすると開放
戦闘力は、英雄王ギルガメッシュの最盛期のそれにほぼ等しい。
叙事詩に語られるギルガメッシュとの戦いでは、人類史に於ける最強の英雄のひとりと目される彼に対して互角の性能を発揮した。
孤高の存在であるギルガメッシュ王が初めて見出した友であり、自身もまたギルガメッシュを無二の友として認識している。
ウルク市での戦いの後、友となったギルガメッシュとエルキドゥは数多くの冒険を行ったが、最終的には神獣グガランナとの戦いの後に命を落とした。
アンロック条件: 絆レベルを4にすると開放
内向的・能動的・強気。
普段は美しい花のように佇むが、いざ動き出せば待ったなし・容赦なし・自重なし、の恐るべきアクティブモンスターとなる。
人間も地球上の生命なので“好ましい”対象だが、人間はその知性から自然と自分たちを分けて考えてしまっているので擁護対象としては低い。
動物、植物に自分と近いものを感じており、彼らを守るために行動する事が主となる。
とはいえ元々好奇心(知的欲求)が大きいエルキドゥは人間との会話を楽しみにしている。
その人物が好ましい性格(博愛精神に満ち、全体主義であり、それでいて自分を第一として考えるもの)であれば心からの敬愛と感心を示し、友人としてこれを支える事を喜びとしている。
アンロック条件: 絆レベルを5にすると開放
○変容:A
能力値を一定の総合値から状況に応じて振り分け直す特殊スキル。エルキドゥの最大の特徴。
ランクが高い程、総合値が高くなる。
時に筋力をAにし、時に耐久をAにする。
ただしパラメーターの返還限界は決まっているため、全ての数値をAにはできない。
エルキドゥは30の数値を持ち、パラメーターはそれぞれA7 B6 C5 D4 E3の数値を消費する。
○気配感知:A+
最高クラスの気配感知能力。
大地を通じて遠距離の気配を察知する事が可能。
○完全なる形:A
大地の魔力を利用し、元のカタチに復元する。
神代の粘土によって作られたエルキドゥの体は大地からの魔力供給ある限り崩れ去ることはない。
他に類を見ない強力な再生・復元能力。
ただし魂は別である。
アンロック条件: 絆レベルを5にすると開放
『人よ、神を繋ぎ止めよう』
ランク:A++ 種別:対粛正宝具
エヌマ・エリシュ。
エルキドゥ自身の体を一つの神造兵装と化す。
膨大なエネルギーを変換した楔となって対象を貫き、繋ぎ止める。
エルキドゥは元々、神々がギルガメッシュを『神の元に戻す』為に遣わした兵器だった。
神と人とを分かつまいと作られた『天の楔』、ギルガメッシュ。
このギルガメッシュが神に反乱した為、これを縛り、天上に連れ戻す役割を持っていた。
しかしエルキドゥはギルガメッシュと友になり、その“天をも拘束する鎖”を、友の望み通り、人の為に使う道を選んだ。 - Transfiguration: A
