   The Tohsaka family, with a lineage spanning 200 years, has a fascinating history as Hidden Christians in Japan. Despite their humble beginnings, they have risen through the ranks to become one of the most influential Mage families. Under the leadership of their head, Nagato Tohsaka, they have honed their skills in Jewel Magecraft and even incorporated a secret Chinese Kenpo martial arts style into their practice. Their connections with the Mage's Association and the Holy Church have further bolstered their standing.

   Intriguingly, it is believed that the Tohsaka family acquired knowledge from the Edelfelts, particularly in the areas of Jewel Magecraft and Gandr usage. Whether this was through marriage or theft of magical abilities remains uncertain. Nevertheless, it has undoubtedly contributed to their mastery of these arcane arts.

   During the development of the Heaven's Feel ritual, Nagato's daughter played a significant role in its completion, surpassing even her father's contributions. The Tohsaka's duty in this ritual is to provide their Spiritual Land for its execution.

   In alternate universes such as Apocrypha and EXTRA, the Tohsaka family takes different paths. In Apocrypha, they abandon their pursuit of the Holy Grail and seek alternative methods to reach the Root in Fuyuki. In EXTRA, tragedy befalls them, resulting in their near destruction in the 1990s.

   The Tohsaka family's rich history and diverse pursuits make them an intriguing and influential force within the world of Magecraft.

   The Einzbern family is an ancient magus lineage located in Germany, near the Rhine River. They were created by the disciples of a powerful magician who sought to replicate their master's achievements in the Third Magic. The family possesses the Das Rheingold, a treasure obtained by Siegfried after slaying the dragon Fafnir. With their knowledge of the gold, they can create vessels for the Holy Grail.

   Around 1,000 years ago, the Einzberns embarked on a quest to recover their lost miracle but realized they needed outside assistance. This led them to establish the Heaven's Feel ritual 200 years ago with the help of the Makiri and Tohsaka families. They built the Great Grail of Fuyuki and were responsible for creating a new vessel for each Grail War.

   Over time, most human mages left the Einzbern family, leaving only Jubstacheit von Einzbern and his Tuners. Jubstacheit has been producing Justeaze-model homunculi to collect data on the Third Magic. In past Holy Grail Wars, the Einzbern Masters were often eliminated early due to their specialization in alchemy rather than battle. However, for the Fourth Heaven's Feel, they hired Kiritsugu Emiya as an outsider and gave him a catalyst to summon King Arthur. Unfortunately, Kiritsugu betrayed them and destroyed the Holy Grail.

   The Einzberns' homeland is constantly in winter, possibly artificially maintained. The family is not accustomed to heat and prefers conducting Holy Grail Wars during winter. They do not cultivate flowers due to their snowy mountain dwelling, but they have a brewery for producing alcohol necessary for their Magecraft. The Einzberns have a limited understanding of Japanese culture and maintain a close relationship with Darjeeling tea from the Talbot farm.

   In the world of "Apocrypha," the Einzberns remain determined to reproduce the Third Magic despite the Greater Grail being stolen. They continue to have relationships with other magi and are struggling to create a new Greater Grail. Their Thaumaturgical Attribute is focused on the flow and transfer of power, allowing them to specialize in Alchemy, particularly in creating homunculi. The Einzbern homunculi are designed with specific functions and even discarded ones are stronger than the average magus. Their Magecraft revolves around the creation and refinement of substances, specifically precious metals, with a focus on structural manipulation.

   Entry settings

   The Matou family, formerly known as the Makiri family, is a long-standing magus lineage in Fuyuki City, Japan. Originally from Russia, they sought refuge in Japan and changed their name to Matou. However, over the past 200 years, they have experienced a decline in their magical abilities, with many of their descendants losing their capacity to manifest Magic Circuits. The true reason behind this decline remains unclear.

   Their last remaining heir, Shinji Matou, has no Magic Circuits at all. The practice of passing down their Magic Crest among family members ceased generations ago. With no other options to continue their bloodline, the Matou family began taking in pupils from other families. However, due to their prideful nature and questionable practices, no one willingly seeks out their mentorship. In a bid to secure an heir, Zouken Matou approached the Tohsaka family and adopted Sakura Tohsaka into the Matou lineage.

   The Magecraft of the Matou family revolves around the concept of "absorbing" or binding something to oneself. Their teaching method involves physically carving magecraft knowledge into the body using Crest Worms. This torturous process allows the body itself to learn magecraft rather than relying on intellectual understanding. While efficient, it is a horrifying practice that Rin Tohsaka states could yield even greater power than her own magecraft abilities within a few months.

   The Matou family has made significant contributions to Thaumaturgy research and played a role in establishing the Servant system of Heaven's Feel and creating Command Spells for Masters. Despite these accomplishments, in Fate/Apocrypha's world, the Matou family lacks a successor and thus faces a future without magi.

   Entry settings

   Servants are powerful beings known as Ghost Liners that are bound to Masters. They can be Heroic Spirits, Divine Spirits, Phantoms, Wraiths, or even living people. Unlike regular familiars, Heroic Spirits are incredibly strong and cannot be contracted by most magi. The Holy Grail is unable to summon a true Heroic Spirit, so vessels are prepared beforehand to facilitate the summoning process. These vessels, called Classes, act as temporary names and methods of existing for the Heroic Spirits. The Command Spells are used to control and bind Servants to the Masters, who can also use them for Magical Energy upkeep and as an anchor to the world. Killing a Master would normally go against the purpose of a Servant, but the Command Spells protect the Masters from those who seek out a more suitable one.

   Keys: Magecraft

   Entry settings

   Magecraft, also known as Majutsu in Japanese, is the practice of recreating supernatural phenomena through artificial means. It allows humans to achieve what science alone cannot explain or accomplish. While Magecraft is not considered a miracle in itself, it utilizes supernatural methods to bring about results that science can achieve through natural means. Over time, the limits of Magecraft have changed as science has advanced and certain magical practices from the past have become possible through scientific advancements.

   Modern Magecraft operates within the boundaries of the world's rules and human intellect. While there are limitations that make certain things appear impossible, Magecraft is able to recreate existing phenomena rather than create new mysteries. The realm beyond this limitation is known as Magic. In terms of magnitude, Modern Magecraft is inferior to the Magecraft of the Age of Gods because the Magi of that era obtained their magical energy directly from the Swirl of the Root. The difference between Modern and Traditional Magecraft can be attributed to the difference in civilizations, as the Age of Gods existed alongside Truth while the Age of Man seeks to discover Truth.

   Magecraft draws its power from the Root but its capacity is fixed. Therefore, when more individuals draw from it simultaneously, the individual power of Magecraft becomes weaker. Belief plays a role in determining whether a Mystery exists or not. Even if modern humans reject the existence of ghosts, Science cannot definitively prove their non-existence. This creates a vague suspicion in the unconscious that ghosts might indeed exist, which falls under "faith." Ignorance, on the other hand, opposes faith. If the existence of a Mystery is completely unknown, faith cannot be fomented.

   The goal of Magi academia is to make the impossible possible. When Modern Magecraft falls short, Magi engage in research and development to expand their abilities. Powerful sorceries such as Greater Magecraft and Greater Rituals are challenges aimed at reaching Magic - the ultimate goal. As development progresses, the significance of differences in power and the distinction between Magic and Magecraft diminishes. Battles between great Magi are determined not by raw power, but by the system with fewer tiers of rules. It is not the power behind them, but the concepts they work under that hold true importance.

   In the world of Fate/EXTRA, Magecraft has declined by the 2030s. However, Wizards can still utilize Code Casts in both the virtual world and reality. They also possess Magic Crests. Despite Magecraft and Science being fundamentally incompatible, both disciplines share a common goal of seeking continued prosperity and protecting humanity's future.

   The Swirl of the Root, also known as the Root or the Akashic Records, is a metaphysical location within the Nasuverse that exists at the top of all theories in every dimension. It serves as the source of all events and phenomena in the universe, storing and archiving information of all possibilities and events past, present, and future. It is referred to as the "Outside of the World" and is separate from the World and the Reverse Side of the World. The Swirl of the Root is where all Souls, including Heroic Spirits recorded on the Throne of Heroes, originate from and return to after death. In Kara no Kyoukai, it is associated with an empty space referred to as "Emptiness" or "Kara."

   Magus, also known as "Magi," are practitioners of Magecraft, a magical science distinct from true Magic. Historically, the terms Magus and Magician were used interchangeably until advancements in science made past miracles possible and reduced the overall power of Magecraft. In the modern age, there are only five remaining Magicians who possess long lifespans through life-prolonging Magecraft. Magi often come from old magical families, as affinity for Magecraft is passed down through blood relations. Being a Magus entails a set of beliefs and a lifestyle centered around the pursuit of "Truth." They dedicate themselves to studying and refining Magecraft while distancing themselves from common values. However, many Magi get caught up in power struggles, while those who deviate from the traditional path are seen as heretics. The appearance of Magi may be distorted due to their craft, but they take pride in it rather than feeling ashamed. Many Magi look down on those who use Magecraft for profit, considering it solely a field of research. Some Magi obtain magical patents recognized by the Clock Tower to gain financial benefits.

Discriminatory attitudes and behaviors are prevalent within the Clock Tower, including discrimination against Asians and a lack of support for Rune and Witchcraft Thaumaturgy. Admission to the Clock Tower involves exams to test knowledge of Magecraft, but exceptional individuals can bypass this through recommendations or lineage. Special treatment is given to outstanding members, such as individual rooms and the right to bring apprentices. Patents related to Magecraft are also handled by the Clock Tower, earning royalties for those who hold them.

    The Holy Grails, known as "Seihai" in Japanese, are objects that are based on the Christian relic said to hold the blood of Christ. Throughout history, countless artifacts have claimed to be the true Holy Grail, leading to numerous conflicts around the world. However, in the context of the Holy Grail Wars, the name is used to refer to an artifact that can supposedly grant any wish to its claimant. The Church often involves itself in these wars due to their association with holy relics. The Holy Grails themselves are masses of pure magical energy that react to the desires of their holders in order to grant their wishes. However, they require external intervention to manifest true miracles and typically do not have a physical form but can take on various shapes depending on the circumstances. In larger Holy Grail Wars, there are Greater Holy Grails at the core of the ritual and Lesser Holy Grails acting as catalysts by collecting defeated Servants. Additionally, there is a term called "Artgraph" that relates to Holy Grails and is used in different contexts such as the Moon Cell's Seventh Heaven Art Graph and the Art Graph Holy Grails, as well as the Lesser Holy Grail of Tokyo.

    Keys: Master

    Entry settings

    In the Fate series, a Master is an individual who has obtained Command Spells and formed a contract with a Servant to participate in the Holy Grail War. Typically, Masters are spellcasters, often Magi with Magic Circuits, chosen by the Holy Grail. However, there have been instances of ordinary individuals becoming Masters, albeit rarely. A Master possesses a visible Command Spell as proof of their contract and is capable of leaking Magical Energy while providing it to their Servant.

    Masters have a unique ability called "Master's Perspective," which grants them a form of Clairvoyance. This ability allows them to see information about observed Servants in a manner that is most understandable to them. For example, Shirou Emiya perceives it as character sheets, while Tiné Chelc sees it as currents flowing from a mountain.

    A Master remains a Master as long as they still possess the Command Spell, even if they don't currently have a Servant. They can form pacts with unclaimed Servants at will, but having too many Servants can be dangerous due to Magical Energy consumption. While under the Fuyuki-related systems, a Master can contract with multiple Servants but cannot materialize more than one at once without splitting their power among them. However, alternate energy sources can be used to provide Magical Energy to multiple Servants simultaneously, as seen with Kirei Kotomine and others.

    Manipulation of the Holy Grail War system allows for the separation of Master rights between multiple individuals. Additionally, Masters and Servants are connected by Magical Paths through which Magical Energy flows. The Master has control over how much energy to grant the Servant and can even cut off the supply or redirect it to other Magi.

    Masters and Servants share a deep mental connection and may experience visions or dreams of each other's pasts. This phenomenon has been observed in various Holy Grail Wars and is not considered mysterious by those aware of it. The specific way in which these shared dreams occur can vary, with some cases allowing the Master to physically participate within the dream. Situations or abilities related to spiritual sensitivity can also cause these visions.

    Traditionally, a Master's goal is to acquire the Holy Grail of Fuyuki City by forming a contract with a Servant. There are no restrictions on how the contract is used, when it is made, or how long it lasts. However, the Servant will inevitably have their own goals that align with those of the Master.

    To become a Master, one must successfully summon a Servant through a specific ritual called Formal Craft. Afterward, the Master must establish a contract with the summoned Servant

    Keys: Command Spell

    Entry settings

    The Command Spells, also known as Command Seals, are powerful symbols of absolute obedience and control that a Master obtains over their Servant in the Holy Grail War. These magical marks are granted to Masters by the Fuyuki Holy Grail and signify their status as the ones in command. In each war, a total of twenty-one Command Spells are distributed, with each Master receiving three. The Servants are bound to follow their Master's orders due to the authority embedded in these Command Spells, which are given to them upon summoning.

    Masters must be cautious with their Command Spells, as they disappear once used and losing all three signifies a loss of authority over the Servant. If a Master contracts with multiple Servants, they will only receive a total of three Command Spells to be used on any of their contracted Servants. Losing Command Spells doesn't result in immediate forfeiture of position in the Holy Grail War, but it does indicate a loss of rights as a Master unless there are other Servants without established contracts.

    Command Spells can be reclaimed by the Holy Grail during the war and redistributed to new contractors who take on a Servant without a Master. After the Holy Grail War, any remaining Command Spells are collected by the overseer for safekeeping. It is possible to keep a contract after the war ends, although maintaining it becomes more challenging without support from the Holy Grail.

    In the Moon Cell Holy Grail War, losing all three Command Spells leads to immediate disqualification even if the Servant is still alive. While Masters can use all three Command Spells, typically only two are effectively utilized in an attempt to win the war. Gilgamesh possesses exceptional abilities which allow him to collect and grant Command Spells to his Master, disrupting the framework of the Holy Grail War.

As humanity's illusions, they embody the ultimate Mysteries of a hero as symbols of their existence through historical fact and anecdotes.

    They can be physical weaponry (e.g. swords, spears, bows) or support items (e.g. shields, rings, crowns). They can also be abstractions such as unique, often magical abilities (even close to or matching True Magic), unique (even conceptual) means of attack, curses, and changes to the very environment and its physical properties. When summoned as Servants in the Holy Grail War, they are the trump cards of the heroes that allow them to overcome others in battle.

Additionally, there is a term called "Artgraph" that relates to Holy Grails and is used in different contexts such as the Moon Cell's Seventh Heaven Art Graph and the Art Graph Holy Grails, as well as the Lesser Holy Grail of Tokyo.

    In the Fate series, a Master is an individual who has obtained Command Spells and formed a contract with a Servant to participate in the Holy Grail War. Typically, Masters are spellcasters, often Magi with Magic Circuits, chosen by the Holy Grail. However, there have been instances of ordinary individuals becoming Masters, albeit rarely. A Master possesses a visible Command Spell as proof of their contract and is capable of leaking Magical Energy while providing it to their Servant.

    Masters have a unique ability called "Master's Perspective," which grants them a form of Clairvoyance. This ability allows them to see information about observed Servants in a manner that is most understandable to them. For example, Shirou Emiya perceives it as character sheets, while Tiné Chelc sees it as currents flowing from a mountain.

    A Master remains a Master as long as they still possess the Command Spell, even if they don't currently have a Servant. They can form pacts with unclaimed Servants at will, but having too many Servants can be dangerous due to Magical Energy consumption. While under the Fuyuki-related systems, a Master can contract with multiple Servants but cannot materialize more than one at once without splitting their power among them. However, alternate energy sources can be used to provide Magical Energy to multiple Servants simultaneously, as seen with Kirei Kotomine and others.

    Manipulation of the Holy Grail War system allows for the separation of Master rights between multiple individuals. Additionally, Masters and Servants are connected by Magical Paths through which Magical Energy flows. The Master has control over how much energy to grant the Servant and can even cut off the supply or redirect it to other Magi.

    Masters and Servants share a deep mental connection and may experience visions or dreams of each other's pasts. This phenomenon has been observed in various Holy Grail Wars and is not considered mysterious by those aware of it. The specific way in which these shared dreams occur can vary, with some cases allowing the Master to physically participate within the dream. Situations or abilities related to spiritual sensitivity can also cause these visions.

    Traditionally, a Master's goal is to acquire the Holy Grail of Fuyuki City by forming a contract with a Servant. There are no restrictions on how the contract is used, when it is made, or how long it lasts. However, the Servant will inevitably have their own goals that align with those of the Master.

    To become a Master, one must successfully summon a Servant through a specific ritual called Formal Craft. Afterward, the Master must establish a contract with the summoned Servant

    The Command Spells, also known as Command Seals, are powerful symbols of absolute obedience and control that a Master obtains over their Servant in the Holy Grail War. These magical marks are granted to Masters by the Fuyuki Holy Grail and signify their status as the ones in command. In each war, a total of twenty-one Command Spells are distributed, with each Master receiving three. The Servants are bound to follow their Master's orders due to the authority embedded in these Command Spells, which are given to them upon summoning.

    Masters must be cautious with their Command Spells, as they disappear once used and losing all three signifies a loss of authority over the Servant. If a Master contracts with multiple Servants, they will only receive a total of three Command Spells to be used on any of their contracted Servants. Losing Command Spells doesn't result in immediate forfeiture of position in the Holy Grail War, but it does indicate a loss of rights as a Master unless there are other Servants without established contracts.

    Command Spells can be reclaimed by the Holy Grail during the war and redistributed to new contractors who take on a Servant without a Master. After the Holy Grail War, any remaining Command Spells are collected by the overseer for safekeeping. It is possible to keep a contract after the war ends, although maintaining it becomes more challenging without support from the Holy Grail.

    In the Moon Cell Holy Grail War, losing all three Command Spells leads to immediate disqualification even if the Servant is still alive. While Masters can use all three Command Spells, typically only two are effectively utilized in an attempt to win the war. Gilgamesh possesses exceptional abilities which allow him to collect and grant Command Spells to his Master, disrupting the framework of the Holy Grail War.

    Noble Phantasms (貴い幻想ノウブル・ファンタズム, Nouburu Fantazumu), or simply Precious/Treasured Tools (宝具, Hōgu) in the Japanese version, are "crystallized Mysteries", powerful armaments made using human imagination as their core, and are the weapons and/or abilities owned by Heroic Spirits. As humanity's illusions, they embody the ultimate Mysteries of a hero as symbols of their existence through historical fact and anecdotes.

    They can be physical weaponry (e.g. swords, spears, bows) or support items (e.g. shields, rings, crowns). They can also be abstractions such as unique, often magical abilities (even close to or matching True Magic), unique (even conceptual) means of attack, curses, and changes to the very environment and its physical properties. When summoned as Servants in the Holy Grail War, they are the trump cards of the heroes that allow them to overcome others in battle.

    King's Treasure Gate of Babylon Rank: E~A++ Type: Anti-Personnel Noble Phantasm

    The golden king's treasure trove and the key sword connected to it contains the origin of many Noble Phantasms, perhaps being a model for humanity's inventions and the treasures of the East and West. Naturally, it is possible to freely draw them out. However, whether one can handle them depends on the skill of the user. When GoB is deployed, a small warehouse entrance appears like a portal amidst golden waves. This entrance allows one to draw out desired tools, and the force ejected from the warehouse is so significant that it can be used to launch weapons like arrows or cannons. As Gilgamesh's primary weapon, its common use is to eject stored weapons. The power increases depending on the quality of the weapon. Given Gilgamesh's characteristics as a heroic spirit, it is only natural that he possesses high-ranked weapons, making each shot a decisive attack. If evaluated solely based on firepower, it would be equivalent to that of 5+ Servants. The number of gates also significantly contributes to its power with tens to hundreds of gates at any given time. With such traits, this power is more prominent in large-scale warfare than in one-on-one battles.

    The Sword of Rupture, Ea, is the most potent Noble Phantasm in the Gate of Babylon, used only by Gilgamesh, making him superior. It can be used for close combat despite its dull tip. Its abnormal shape predates the concept of a "sword," with a handle, handguard, and longsword length, but lacks a typical blade. Instead, it has a cylindrical, drill-like design with three rotating segments etched with red cuneiform letters. These segments represent the heavens, the earth, and the underworld, and their rotation symbolises the cosmos, thereby representing the universe. Despite being called a sword, its essence is closer to a wand.

    Excalibur Rank: A++ Type: Anti-Fortress Noble Phantasm Range: 1~99 Maximum Targets: 1000 people Excalibur is the main weapon used by Artoria Pendragon, a character from the "Fate Series". When activated, it uses Saber's 'Dragon Element' to convert the user's magical energy into light, then accelerates and converts this energy into a beam. Although it is an attack that emits a giant beam of light, only the tip of the beam is considered an active hit box. However, because heat is evenly distributed throughout the entire beam, it can execute both point and area attacks. Compared to a 'nuclear weapon' that can evaporate a river in one shot and turn hundreds of meters of forest into ashes, it has very powerful destructive power. However, its heavy magical energy consumption tires out the user considerably and it cannot be used consecutively, which is a disadvantage.

    Unlimited Blade Works (無限の剣製アンリミテッドブレイドワークス) Rank: E~A++ Type: ??? Range: ??? Maximum Captures: ??? This is the Noble Phantasm of Emiya, a character from the Fate series.

    Its design is similar to the sword hill made by Rickert in Berserk.

    It is not a weapon, but a special magic called a Reality Marble. A Reality Marble is when the reality is turned into the inner world of the caster for a certain period of time. In Emiya's case, he instantly duplicates and stores any weapon he has seen, and any weapon used there. However, the duplicated weapons are reduced by one rank. Duplication of armor is possible, but it requires 2-3 times the normal magical power projection. The twin swords "Kanshou and Bakuya" that Archer favors were made with projection magic. There are also other magical swords like the "False Spiral Sword" and tracking magic sword "Caladbolg II". In his lifetime, it may have been routine to customize weapons, as the projected Noble Phantasms are conveniently arranged for use.

    False Spiral Sword Caladbolg Ⅱ Rank: ??? (Estimated to be A+ or A) Type: Anti-Personnel Noble Phantasm Range: ??? Maximum Targets: ??? The Noble Phantasm that appears in Fate/stay night. It's one of the weapons often used by Archer in the 5th Holy Grail War, along with Gan Jiang, Mo Ye, and Hrunting.

    Archer modified the Caladbolg that appeared in Celtic mythology to suit his combat style and named it Caladbolg II. It is peculiarly twisted in shape, which is why it is also called the mono-horn sword.

    Though it's essentially a sword, Archer primarily uses it as an arrow. He transforms the sword into an arrow and shoots it from the bowstring, and upon firing, it terrifyingly twists space like a swirling wind. Even teleportation is interrupted due to space being twisted.

    The game states that "Cú Chulainn must be defeated once before this sword due to his self-imposed curse (Geas)." From this sentence, it seems that even though Archer heavily modified Caladbolg II, it still applies to Cú Chulainn's Geas. However, its owner Archer has no relation to Ulster.

    Immortality granted by divine blessing (or curse). It hardens the flesh into a sort of armor. All attacks below rank B are nullified. Hidden ability. Even if killed, resurrection is automatic. The number of times one can resurrect is 11, meaning Berserker cannot be extinguished unless he is defeated 12 times. A body of immortality obtained as a reward for accomplishing twelve almost impossible labors, blessed and cursed by the gods. It's a rare type of Noble Phantasm that doesn't have a specific form like a weapon or armor, but it grants the following three effects to the owner's body, making the body itself into a powerful defensive Noble Phantasm. Effects:

    1. Nullify attacks below rank B Whether physical or magical, all attacks below rank B are completely nullified. Therefore, any attack on the Berserker must be of rank A or above to be effective.
    2. Resistance against an attack once suffered Once Berserker recovers from an injury, he gains resistance to the method of attack that caused it, reducing the damage.
    3. Twelve lives The owner of the Noble Phantasm automatically resurrects even if they die, and they can do so 11 times. One basic life + 11 more added through resurrection results in 12 lives - this symbolizes the "twelve labors". In other words, Berserker generally has to be defeated twelve times before he can die.}

    A cursed spear that pierces the heart of its victim without fail. The lethal thrust by the spear Gae Bolg. Its true nature involves the reversal of causality, where the effect 'the spear has pierced the heart' precedes the cause 'the spear is thrust'. Just before the thrust, the spear has already hit the heart, so it's impossible to defend or dodge after the result has occurred. To dodge Gae Bolg, a high AGI (agility) isn't important, but rather a high LUK (luck), an ability to reverse fate before Gae Bolg's activation is critical. This Noble Phantasm requires a small amount of mana to activate and it's one of the most efficient due to its one-strike kill nature. A cursed spear that inevitably pierces through the heart after being thrust. A devastating blow from Gae Bolg. Its true nature is a demonic skill that allows for a strike after confirming that it will hit the opponent's heart, essentially reversing cause and effect. "This spear already possesses the result of having hit your heart. Therefore, no matter what you do, you're ultimately pierced through your heart" is its principle.}

Using an ether lump, a double existence that can be affected by each other is created from a target's reflection in a mirror and the existence beyond that mirror. By breaking the fake resonance with the assassination target, the real target is cursed to death without laying a finger on them. It nullifies strong physical defenses and crushes the heart as an assassination art. Primary weapon of Hassan of the Cursed Arm. Simply put, it's a Noble Phantasm that causes one's heart to explode when the chest area is touched. To be precise, it uses Shaytan's ability to create a doppelganger when touching one's chest, which shares physical interference with the original person in another world. By destroying the doppelganger's heart, it also destroys the original's heart. Even though Servants possess extraordinary physical durability due to being heroes, no matter how skilled a warrior may be, one cannot strengthen their heart. Thus, they are defenseless against this Noble Phantasm.
