Giving the wiki link over here since any other result for the phrase 'vish kanya' is just Indian cancer and embarassment. Please never bother with them.

From what I can understand about this Hassan group, they are just a collection of people who are famous for having some peculiar features/behaviour for carrying out assassinations that it's their signature. Again, I am historically uneducated so I cannot account for my words.

It could be cool if Chandragupta Maurya is also a contender for a future servant since he is the guy who laid the foundations of the largest empire in the Indian subcontinent. That, and he was the reigning king at the time Alexander the Great tried to invade India, but never due to mutiny in his own army, as per Wikipedia. But afaik, as children we heard some rather wild versions as to why Iskander/Sikandar never got to attack the country.

If Changragupta was made into a servant, he might be like Jeanne in terms of personality I guess. So rather than him, if they really have to pick a real Indian king for a servant, I wish they would rather pick Ashoka. His backstory before his ascension to the throne is really bloody and then there was this anime moment transformation where he turned from a ruthless tyrant into a benevolent king who cared for the kingdom and eventually became one of the greatest king of all times.

On a side note, King Hassan absconds each of the FGO Hassans for being a disappointment for what they became in the end. Is it because they fail to understand the essence of life and death despite becoming the old man of the mountain?
