Other Characters: None currently.
Character Name: Iskandar
Canon: Fate/Zero - OC
Canon Point: Season 2, Episode 23: "The Sea and the End of the World" - Right before his untimely demise by Gilgamesh using his noble phantasm 'Enuma Elish' in his final battle, ordering Waver to live out his hopes and dreams without fear.
Age: Mid to Late thirties.
Birthday: Unknown canonically but I've always gone with July 20th since it is Alexander the Greats birthday!
History: Info Page
Personality: Iskandar is an aspect of both considerable compassion and physical strength but one thing is certain above all else, the King of Conqueror's is an adventurous soul with an insatiable lust to control the known world. Upon first summoning Rider learns all that he can about the modern age and what obstacles he must overcome to achieve his goal of conquering the new world with the aid of his young master, Waver Velvet. Despite the differences in their personality and way of thinking Iskandar has nothing but the utmost respect for Waver as time passes by, the two becoming close companions with the spirit even bestowing the great honor of a retainer to his master before his untimely demise at the hands of Gilgamesh. Waver's will and determination rivals that of his own and for that Iskandar comes to respect his master even if he was a timid little boy at the best of times who constantly second guessed his abilities.
Thirsting for knowledge and power, the tyrant king can often be found seeking battle or exploring the modern world of his own accord during his free time despite Waver's constant protest. Loud and bold, along with his relentless ambition, Iskandar can be found as arrogant to most but does not see these characteristics as flaws, more so necessary traits of a strong willed leader. As such Iskandar uses his ambitions and greed to his advantage, the tyrant king acquiring wealth, status, sex and power by whatever means necessary though bestowing mercy when met with loyalty. Although Iskandar can be seen as ruthless to some, fealty to his friends and master are without question. Bonds of friendship are highly important to him, surpassing that of any riches when it comes down to it. Believing wealth and power to come naturally as a ruler, Rider values the respect of his companions, soldiers and friends alike above all else. Thus is proven time and time again throughout the entirety of the series, especially so when it comes to his young master Waver. During the first battle betwixt Saber and Lancer, Kayneth Archibald, the one whom meant to originally summon Iskandar openly mocks Waver calling him inadequate and weak. He is quick to defend his young master however, although seemingly afraid his master rode out with him by his side whilst Kayneth cowered in the shadows, a true master worthy of his servitude compared to a coward hiding in the darkness.
Reason and logic do not dictate Iskandar's course of actions, greed and impulse often paving the way as the King of Conqueror rides into battle without hesitation or fear. Fool hearty to some is it Iskandar's greed and determination that inspires his followers, such inspiration is the key to his noble phantasm, Ionioi Hetairoi. Unlike most tyrants however, Iskandar's greed is not to be mistaken by cruelty, often resorting to words over bloodshed in his quest to conqueror all. This is proven during his first confrontation with both Lancer and Saber, trying to recruit the pair as his retainers instead of an outright battle despite his desire for conquest. Initially the other servants take him as a fool and naive for a spirit of his caliber but over time gains the favor of both Archer and Saber in their own ways.
Whilst Iskandar could never truly befriend Gilgamesh over the coming days of the Grail War the two share an unparalleled rivalry in their conquest to achieve their ideals and possess the Holy Grail, a mutual respect forming betwixt them although ultimately still enemies until the bitter end. His bond with Saber however is more difficult in comparison, Iskandar's pride and way of kingship polar opposites to the King of Knights. Rider finds her selfless ideals of sacrifice for her people abysmal compared to his own ways of leadership, a king should be proud and inspiring rather than filled with sorrow and regret like Artoria. A king should be forthright and sure of himself rather than filled with self doubt, rallying his people rather than isolating themselves away like a fool, far worse than any tyrant in his mind. Although Iskandar made many mistakes over his lifetime he was always sure in himself without any regret, the mark of a true King of Conquerors.
Time of Arrival to Kaisou: The current in-game date would be most suitable I think!
Items: His one and only trusted sword of the Kupriotes!
Retained Abilities: Summon - Bucephalus: Unlike his Noble Phantasm, 'Gordius Wheel', Bucephalus' is Iskandar's valiant personal stead capable of being summoned at will by the Rider class Servant.
Noble Phantasm - 'Gordius Wheel': Led by two Divine bulls, the embodiment of Zeus himself, 'Gordius Wheel' is Iskandar's most commonly used Noble Phantasm capable of both flight and ground travel. It's massive size rivals that of an average sized vehicle, devastatingly huge sickles gracing each side capable of destroying any obstacle in its way. With each stomp of the Divine Bulls hoofs thunderous sounds erupt, lightning strikes protruding from the chariot in an attempt to blast Rider's opponents.
Noble Phantasm - 'Ionioi Hetairoi': More commonly known as 'Army of the King' is Iskandar's ultimate Noble Phantasm. Using a "Reality Marble" that encompasses the King of Conquerors along with his enemies, 'Ionioi Hetairoi' is the embodiment of Iskandar's dreams, kingship and legacy, loyal subjects following him into battle without hesitation.
*POWER NERF NOTES* - 'Ionioi Hetairoi': I have a feeling his 'Ionioi Hetairoi' is a little unbalanced in terms of power, I generally don't mind if he's unable to use this ability given its world altering abilities! When last I played him in a game it was significantly reduced to a smaller, contained area so as to keep it balanced and was unable to use it within any city limits.
