By Jeremiah

• September 2, 2015

Age: Unknown

Gender: Male

Species: Unicorn

Appearance: A young face without a single crease yet. He has huge, rolling eyes and oily, glistening cheeks. Because he was originally a knight, he has a muscular build and is a very tall individual. Those abnormally big eyes easily remind one of nocturnal animals.<br /><br />His garments too were quite odd and were definitely queer. A luxurious robe of ancient design; sanguineous scarlet patterns adorned the pitch-black fabric. He donned an inky black cassock, and an evil aura reeled about it. Also, the patterns dyed crimson red on the cloth was as if stained with blood. His figure, tall enough to reach the clouds, was wrapped in a much-folded robe, decorated with luxurious latches made of precious metals; his whole style looks exactly like some "evil magician" from a comic. When silent, his features would look dreadful like the face of a corpse, but when smiling without any apparent maliciousness, he would seem as pure as a saint. He has a cracks on one of his hands. He usually has a scorn on his face.

Cutie Mark: His cutie mark is a spell book (Prelati's Spellbook)

Personality: Caster is a troubled person, having lost the mare he admired... he is almost devoid of any morality, and has no interest in obtaining the Holy Grail. He has a fixation towards Saber as he believes that she is his lost love.<br /><br />He deludes himself and his memories are warped by lies and guilt, hence he is unlikable and vile. Showing no remorse or guilt despite this he seeks for a worthy Master do commit his wrong-doings with him

Backstory: His true identity is Gilles de Rais. a French nobleman from the 15th century. He participated in the Hundred Years' War as a Marshal and was once a comrade-in-arms of Joan Pony of Arc. He remembered the time when he and Joan were decorated as saviors and national heroes by King Charles van Hoof in the cathedral with the ars nova melody playing in the background.<br /><br />In his life time, he admired Joan deeply and he was devastated when she died. Gilles came in contact with magecraft through François Prelati (an old friend) of his. who was like a friend and a tutor. Gilles himself also participated in the alchemical and Demon-summoning rituals, but François was the Magus leading the rituals, Gilles was simply the only patron. Unfortunately for Gilles, his total assets of his lands exceeds the scale of the Duke of Brittany at that time. Which even became a threat towards the king. Gilles finances collapse itself because of his extreme wasteful habit in his private life, it became fearful as he would most likely sell his lands to the enemy nations. His dark magic training made him look like a villain amongst others.<br /><br />As a result, he was condemned and then exiled. "Bluebeard" is the name of a fictional character which is based on Gilles himself and it became the symbol of fear... He is a symbol of fear among pon abd legend and his a warning never to dabble in the dark-arts.
