Biography

“ セイバークラスのメドゥーサ。その手にあるのは、我が子にも等しき黄色剣―――― ”

Unlock	Description	Translation🛈🛈|nbx= for north american localization release and |bx = for fan english translation
Default	人を石にする魔眼と蛇の髪を持つ女の怪物は、 英雄ペルセウスに首を切り落とされたとき、 その血より二種の存在を産んだという。 一つは翼の生えた馬、ペガサス。 そしてもう一つが「黄金剣を持つ怪物」である―――	TL Fan Translation: It is said that when Perseus decapitated the female monster with hair made of snakes and eyes that could petrify mortals, two beings were born from her blood. One was the horse that grew wings, Pegasus. And the other one was a "monster holding a golden sword"───
Bond 1	身長／体重：160cm・52kg 出典：ギリシャ神話 地域：ギリシャ、形のない島 属性：混沌・中庸　　副属性：地　　性別：女性 なぜかライダークラスの彼女より若く見える。	TL Fan Translation: Height/Weight: 160cm/52kg Source: Greek Mythology Location: Greece, Shapeless Isle Alignment: Chaotic Balanced Attribute: Earth Gender: Female For some reason, she appears younger than her Rider version.
Bond 2	メドゥーサがペルセウスに殺された際、その首から、 あるいは滴る血から二つの存在が産まれたとされる。 その一つがペガサスであり、もう一つが産まれたときから黄金の剣を持っていたという怪物、クリューサーオールである。 セイバーのメドゥーサはその関係性から、クリューサーオールと深く結びついた黄金剣を宝具として所有する。 クリューサーオールは三つの身体を持つというゲーリュオーン、数多の魔獣の母たるエキドナを子として持つともされ、怪物の父と呼ばれる。 クリューサーオールの実際の姿形、どのような存在であったか、は謎に包まれている。 メドゥーサ自身も語ろうとしない。 死後の存在であるゆえ知らないのか、知っていて黙っているのかも定かではない。 彼女はただ、自らの手中にある剣を、大事な宝物のように見つめるだけである。	TL Fan Translation: They say when Medusa was killed by Perseus, two creatures were born from either her neck or the dripping blood. One of them was Pegasus, and the other was Chrysaor, the monster that bore a golden sword from the moment he was born. Because of these relations, Saber Medusa possesses the golden sword that is deeply connected to Chrysaor as a Noble Phantasm. Since Chrysaor is said to have had Geryon, who had three bodies, and Echidna, the mother of countless Demonic Beasts, as his children, he is called the Father of Monsters. Chrysaor's actual appearance and what kind of existence he was is shrouded in mystery. Medusa herself also refuses to speak about it. It is uncertain whether she does not know because he came to be after her death, or whether she does know but remains silent. She merely gazes at the sword in her hand as if it was a precious treasure.
Bond 3	○性格 （第二、第三再臨） ライダークラスのメドゥーサとほとんど変わらない。 無口で無愛想、冷淡で冷血に見えるが、マスターに対しては忠実。マスター以外には基本的に無関心、ただし敵でないと判断すれば温情を見せることもある。 アテナの因子が作用している関係上、そちらにやや引っ張られ、全体的に浮き世離れした（いつもの魔物っぽい冷たさに加えて神っぽい冷たさもあるような）方向性に寄っている。 だが実のところ、それは意識的な態度でもある。 油断すると「やさぐれた」「感情的な」自分の内面が 言動にも表れてしまうことを彼女は自覚しており、そのために感情を自制している。 その内面の理由もまた、アテナ。 アテナの匂いが自分の中から届いているせいで、「自らの起点」及び「自らの結末」をホットに感じて苛立っているのである。 つまりは、外見と同じに、精神的にも若い部分がある。 一方で、自らの黄金剣に対しては、「母性」のようなものを見せるときがある。好感度を上げた場合は、マスターに対しても（本人は意識しないが）母性のようなものを滲ませて接することがある。 （第一再臨） より精神的に「若い」部分が強調されており、感情が見えやすい。 敬語も使わず、怖い物知らずの無遠慮さを周囲に向ける。 「仕事だから、契約だからやる」立場なのは変わらないが、より不満や疑問に素直であり、オトナの仕事人的な部分が第二、第三再臨からなくなっている形。 それは逆に言えば等身大で親しみやすいということでもある。 ……別に社交的ではなく、人に対する好き嫌いも激しいため、誰とでも関係を築けるタイプでもないが。 根底に「母性」を潜ませているのは変わらない。 つっけんどんな態度ながらも、剣やそこから生まれた怪物たちを大事にし、あるいはその庇護対象に好感度が上がったマスターも含めようとするかもしれない。	TL Fan Translation: • Personality (2nd & 3rd Ascension) She is almost the same as her Rider version. Taciturn and unsociable, but while she might appear apathetic and coldhearted, she is devoted to her Master. She is basically indifferent to anyone other than her Master, but if she decides that you are not an enemy, she can show you some kindness. Due to the Athena factor's influence, she is somewhat dragged along by it, causing the overall direction of her character to be close to otherworldy (a god-like emotionally distant attitude is added to the monster-like emotionally distant attitude). However, in truth, that is a deliberate behavior on her part. She is self-conscious about the fact that if she lets her guard down, her "careless" and "sentimental" inner self will become apparent even in her speech and conduct so she restrains her emotions. The reason for that inner self is also Athena. Since Athena's stench is coming from within her, she can fervently feel her "origin" and "conclusion" which irritates her a lot. In other words, she is just as young emotionally as her appearance would suggest. On the other hand, there are times when she shows a "motherly" something when it comes to the golden sword. If her likeability is raised, that motherly something will reveal itself in her interactions with her Master (although Medusa herself is unaware of it). (1st Ascension) Her mentally "young" portion is emphasized and it is easy to tell how she's feeling at the moment. Without using any honorifics, she shows a fearless bluntness to those around her. Her stance that she's "doing it because it's her job and there is a contract" remains the same, but in this form, she is more upfront about her discontent and doubts, and the professional-like part from her second and third ascensions is missing. Conversely, that also makes her feel more true-to-life and easier to get along with. ...However, since she is not particularly sociable and has extreme likes and dislikes when it comes to people, she is not the type that can establish a relationship with anyone. The "motherly nature" lurking at her foundation did not change. Even with her brusque attitude, she treasures the sword and the monsters that were born from him, and perhaps the Master that became a target of protection from raising their likeability with her is included in there too.
Bond 4	○騎乗：Ａ 幻獣・神獣ランクを除くすべての獣、乗り物を自在に操ることができる。 なおセイバークラスの彼女は『騎英の手綱』を保持していない。 ○自己封印・暗黒神殿：Ｂ ブレーカー・ゴルゴーン。本来は宝具。 悪夢を見せ、さらに「封じる」方向性を持つ結界。 自らの魔眼を封じる枷としても利用される。 ライダークラスの眼隠しの代わりに、セイバーの彼女は サングラス、もしくは兜の目庇部分に展開している。 ○因子捕食（戦女神）：ＥＸ このメドゥーサは戦女神のような印象のある盾や鎧兜を身に着けている。 詳細は定かではないが、これは他のクラスのメドゥーサが不死殺しの鎌を身に着けていることがあるのと同様に、何らかの能力で『自らの死因に近い要素』を取り込んだ結果ではないかとカルデアでは分析されている。	TL Fan Translation: • Riding: A She can handle any monster or vehicle as she wishes, with the exception of Phantasmal and Divine Beasts. It should be noted that this Saber-class version does not possess the "Bridle of Chivalry". Breaker Gorgon: Self Seal - Dark Temple B Breaker Gorgon. Her original Noble Phantasm. A barrier that shows nightmares and is of the "sealing" orientation. It can also be used as a fetter that seals away her Mystic Eyes. In place of her Rider-class version's blindfold, it has been deployed as a pair of sunglasses or as the visor portion of a helmet for Saber Medusa. • Factor Predation (Goddess of War): EX This version of Medusa possesses a shield, helmet, and armor reminiscent of the Goddess of War. Although the details are unsure, according to Chaldea's analysis - similar to how there is a Medusa of a different class possessing the immortal-killing scythe - this may be the result of some ability to incorporate "elements similar to their cause of death".
Bond 5	『怪物の黄金剣』 ランク：Ａ　種別：対軍宝具 レンジ：１～４０　最大捕捉：２００人 クリューサーオール。 それは死したメドゥーサの血から現れ、産まれたときから黄金剣を握っていたという存在―――数多の魔獣の祖となった「怪物の父」の名である。 その力が宿った、あるいは「そのもの」である黄金剣の真名解放が為された場合、斬撃にすら「怪物の父」の属性が乗る。すなわちこの剣の真価は「怪物を産む斬撃」「怪物である斬撃」である。 一振りごとに黄金の光で形作られた怪物（エキドナ、ケルベロスなど）が剣から産み出されるようになり、それらは黄金剣を父とする生物のように従順に命令を聞き、あるいは自律的に敵を襲う。 その黄金の怪物たちは時間経過で霧散していくが、彼らは剣閃でもあるため、任意のタイミングで黄金の魔力斬撃の形に戻ることが可能である。	TL Fan Translation: 『The Golden Sword of Monsters』 Rank: A Classification: Anti-Army Noble Phantasm Range: 1~40 Maximum number of targets: 200 Chrysaor. It is the name of the being that emerged from the dead Medusa's blood, grasping a golden sword from his birth───the "Father of Monsters" who became the ancestor of countless Demonic Beasts. Upon releasing the True Name of the golden sword in which that power resides - or what may be the power "itself - even the slashes will be imbued with the attribute of the "Father of Monsters". In other words, the true value of this sword is "a slash that births monsters" or "a slash that is a monster". With each swing, monsters shaped by a golden light (e.g. Echidna, Cerberus) are spawned from the sword, which - like creatures fathered by the golden sword - obediently listen to commands; or perhaps they just autonomously attack the enemy. These golden monsters will dissipate over time, but since they are also sword flashes, it is possible for them to turn back into golden magical slashes at any time.
Clear Mystic Eyes Symphony and Bond Lvl 5
Extra	神々の卑劣な呪いに運命を狂わされ、 愛していた全てを喪い、怪物と成り果て、 誰もが認める英雄に首を落とされた彼女が、 最期に産み落としたもの――― ペガサスとクリューサーオール。 空を舞う天馬と、父たる怪物。 どこまでも自由なものと、 どこまでも血を続かせるもの。 それは、最後にひとりぼっちになってしまった彼女の、 願いであるのかもしれなかった。 いなくなってしまった、大好きだった家族へ。 自由であってほしかった。 永遠に続いてほしかった。 ―――いつか。 その自由と永遠が、もう一度、 自分たちを結びつけてくれますように。	TL Fan Translation: Her destiny was derailed by the despicable curse of the gods, she lost everything she loved, degraded into a monster, and had her head sent flying by an undisputed hero; what she gave birth to in her last moments─── They were Pegasus and Chrysaor. The heavenly steed dancing in the sky and the father of monsters. The one who is forever free and the one who will continue their lineage for eternity. That might have been the wish of her who was left all alone at the end. To the beloved family that is gone now. I wanted us to be free. I wanted it to last forever. ───One day. May that freedom and eternity unite us once more.
