The Trưng SistersWP (徴姉妹, Chun Shimai?), Class Name Nakayoshi Saber (なかよしセイバー?, literally "Chummy Saber"), is a Saber-class Servant summoned by Ritsuka Fujimaru in the Grand Orders of Fate/Grand Order.
Profile[]
Identity[]
Trưng Trắc (徴側, Chun Chaku?) (elder) and Trưng Nhị (徴弐, Chun Ni?) (younger).
The Trưng Sisters were leader of the rebellion against the Eastern Han Dynasty's domination in the 1st century. It is said that the influential Trưng Trắc, triggered by the murder of her husband by Giao Chỉ District Governor - Su Ding, rose up against them with her younger sister Trưng Nhị. Trưng Trắc swiftly took over 65 strongholds and ascended to the throne. However, the Emperor of Eastern Han Dynasty sent Ma Yuan (ancestor of Ma Chao of the Three Kingdoms) to suppress the rebellion. While the Trưng Sisters put up a valiant struggle, they were abandoned by the feudal lords who saw them as inferior and were ultimately defeated.
Some said they were decapitated, but some also said they threw themselves into the river with their hands intertwined and ascended into the clouds.

Personality[]
Trưng Trắc[]
The older sister Trưng Trắc took on the title of Empress Trưng and was the leader who commanded the rebellion. She was always calm and collected, looked straight ahead, listened to her subordinates, and made composed decisions about everything. However, she was also a greatly righteous leader with a motherly nature, who did not forsake her humane kindness. Right now, her Servant form is relatively young, but her nature remains unchanged.
"Understood. Thank you for your hard work. Please fall back." "That won't do. Let's bring the troops that way."
......Those are just her putting up a front. Only in front of her most trusted younger sister that she would gently let out a sigh and show a bawling face of an older sister who dislikes disputes. "Nhị-Chan, help meee. Your older sis is all tuckered out for today~ (Roll roll)" "Haa. Why does everyone keeps giving me such unreasonable demands......"
Trưng Nhị[]
Trưng Nhị is the younger sister who supported her older sister as her close aid. She has an aura like a cool and taciturn professional who doesn't show many facial expressions.
In reality, she loves her older sister a lot. Kind of a siscon. The desire to help her sister is her only code of conduct. In public, she would call Trưng Trắc "Older sister", but when there are just the two of them, she would relax and call her "Sis". Even while her heart is screaming something along the line of "Sis is so cute", her face is still very scary, thus, people would often misunderstand her. Only Trắc can understand her expressions and emotions perfectly. And actually, it's not only her older sister that she likes but cute things in general.
"Si-......Older sister. Tell me what I need to do." "I will do my best to remove anything that makes you sad." (Aaaahh so cute my sis rolling around because she's tired is seriously so cute I wanna hug her I'm gonna hug her Squeeze......)

She was a big sister through and through, and I had such a meaningful time with her. But then when I spoke to someone else, they claimed she did not have a younger sister... Wh-what does that mean? D-did I just experience some sort of supernatural phenomenon?"[1]

The two use bamboo handles that can generate blades out of water.

Skills[]
Class Skills[]
- Magic Resistance (B Rank)
- Riding (B Rank)
- Divinity (C Rank)
Personal Skills[]
- Charisma of the Rebellion (B- Rank): The innate ability to command military corps. It improves the team's ability in combat. Yet, the Trưng Sisters' rebellion was suppressed in just 3 years. According to the records, the cause of their defeat was the spread of war weariness among their commanders and the lost of their fighting spirit while facing against the Eastern Han Dynasty's punitive force. As a symbolic leader, Trưng Trắc's charisma functions perfectly regarding state management, but as the supreme commander of the army, its rank is slightly lowered.
- Sisters' Bond (A Rank)
- Exalted Trung Queen (EX Rank): A skill that signifies the fact Trưng Trắc, who has taken on the title of Empress, has gathered faith as a God called "Exalted Queen Trưng" even after her death. Even long after their rebellion had fallen apart, the two sisters' names are still being spoken among the populace, and eventually the two were enshrined as the Gods of Fortune. In the 14th century classical Chinese collection of stories, "Ghosts of Viet Region", which collected tales of Vietnamese Gods, there was a record of a great drought during the Ly Dynasty, and how the girls appeared in response to the offered prayers and gave them rain.
Noble Phantasm[]
Trưng sisters' Noble Phantasm is Let Us Walk Together Through Our Land: Roused Sixty-Five Strongholds (奮起の六十五城?). Manifestation of the two sisters' combined swordsmanship, loaded with the same unstoppable momentum. In addition, the baby elephants that the two carry also provide support with their combined attack, however, even the sisters themselves do not know exactly what those elephants are.
