Ouraboros

I thought the reason why Astraea has Luvia's body is because just like Ishtar,Parvati etc. is that they are pseudo-servants and not the actual true divine spirit itself which cannot be summoned so they need a host to essentially create a seperate entity that is neither truly both.

Note: not all gods are the same, at least in case of Ishtar we know she has a real body even more beautiful than her host (if we believe her that is^^), Amaterasu also looks like a giant fox lady etc.

As for the gods of Olympus we know (from older fate lore) that they age over time and needed to eat "golden apples" to keep themself from aging. Hence why they where "jealous" towards Stheno and Euryale who were born as "perfect" immortal idols.

So unless there some other retcon or change in this lostbelt that happened to the gods of Olympus it seems they aren't originally mechanical beings (according to the old lore at least).
