Class Skills

Mad Enhancement: A+

Rank up for all parameters but snatches away most of one’s reason.

Since only his sense of duty where he must expand more of the Roman Empire and make it prosper is not lost, in the situation where one seeks to make contact by taking sides with him and reveals a reference to Rome, a Luck Check is conducted, and he restrains his rampage if the check is successful. If the contact happens from a figure who is related to Rome, a plus modifier is appended to the check. That is, if Nero or Romulus approaches him, to start with, he will reliably succeed in restraining himself. However, given that the matter of being restrained is just him “changing into a standby status instead of rampaging around”, one can conclude that coming to a complete mutual understanding with him does not prove to be feasible.

Personal Skills

Imperial Privilege: A

Skills that are essentially impossible to possess can be acquired for a short time. The relevant Skills this covers are Riding, swordsmanship, fine arts, Charisma, Military Tactics, and many others. Because this is not lower than A Rank, those that are a burden to the body (such as Divinity) can even be acquired.

Sadistic Constitution: A

Applies a plus modifier to one’s aggression in battle. One’s sadistic nature will continue to grow to some degree should the battle drag on.

As it is close in nature to the Mad Enhancement Skill, Caligula cannot demonstrate this Skill to the fullest.

Glory of the Past: B

The memories of the four-year period when Caligula lived as a wise king do not soften his insanity, but rather accelerates it. Applies a plus modifier to his resistance checks against mental interferences, and temporarily raises his Strength parameter when attacking bare-handed, but every time Caligula uses this effect, he personally takes damage. His rampaging insanity makes his spiritual core grate.

Noble Phantasm

Flucticulus Diana: Devour My Heart, Moonlight
Rank: C
Type: Anti-Army
Range: 1~50
Maximum Number of Targets: 300 people

A wide range Mental Pollution attack that diffuses his own insanity through the moonlight projected through the sky. The manifestation of his insanity was something due to the affection and divine protection of the Moon Goddess Diana (who is equivalent to Artemis of the Twelve Olympians)————This Noble Phantasm sublimated that legend. If employed on an opposing army for instance, a situation that is repulsive and even tragic would probably be born. Its primary usage requirement is for “the circumstances to be at night.” This Noble Phantasm's effects do not apply to those that are related to the goddess Artemis[1].

Personality

A complete sadist who is swayed by sadism. All enemies that catches Caligula’s eyes will become targets of tyranny and wickedness. (With the disposition of a Servant, he will not bare his fangs on his own faction, basically.) Furthermore, because he fell into a state in which his self-restraint is ineffective due to the Skill Mad Enhancement, he is unmanageable. Even if he speaks the language, given that it is something like a beast’s roar, coming to a mutual understanding is impossible. But, even in such a state, he likes Rome. He also likes Nero.

##Motivation/Attitude towards the Master

Caligula is thought to be regarding the protagonist as a Roman citizen. Because he likes Roman citizens, naturally, he likes the protagonist too. Still, since he lost his reason as he is now, as expected, he cannot come to a mutual understanding. Though one can understand to a degree that he is probably not loathing them.

The wish Caligula wants to make on the Holy Grail is “to get rid of his insanity.” If it is possible for it to come true, he wants to return———to that time where he was once called a wise ruler, to that time when he was reading stories to the child of his beloved younger sister, Nero, who was sitting on his lap———a time from even before that moment when the goddess of the moon fell in love with him and overflowed his body with madness.

Dialogue Examples

“My, conduct, is, in, my destiny.”
“Offer me, your, life!”
“Offer me, your, body!”
“Beautiful, ooh so… beautiful… I will excessively steal, devour greedily, tear up, and completely violate, with my whole body, all of the beauty that has become your purity, as if that purity was of a goddess’s. I, love, you, the child of my dear younger sister, Nero!”
“▂▂▃▃▅▅———!!”

※ Although he can pretty much enter into a conversation of words, given that it is something like a beast’s roar, coming to a mutual understanding with him is impossible.

Historical Image and Character

The Third Emperor of ancient Rome who possesses a legend of tyranny. A person of the 1st Century BC. The uncle of Emperor Nero. At one time, Caligula vigorously stimulated government affairs, and it is said that he had received a lot of support from the people as a wise ruler.

Character Image in "Fate/Grand Order"

At a certain time, Caligula’s mental state had transformed. Without waiting for deification by the ancient Roman statesmen that one would succeed in acquiring after death, he forced the people, with his tyranny and dissipation, to call himself a god while he was still living, having exhausted his wickedness and perversion to their limits. The people of Rome violently trembled from the sudden change of the emperor, and unanimously whispered: “The wise ruler had already disappeared, and now, Emperor Gaius, Caligula, has fallen into madness.” The reign of the young emperor who had gone insane did not last long. He was assassinated, struck by the blade of rebellion from the many people who chose to center their influence around powers such as the senate. That reign was only four years. However, that name was deeply left behind in the people’s memories as numerous acts of atrocities.

It is said that his insanity was namely considered as, according to the values of ancient Rome at that time, “being loved by the moon.” That is———Caligula had received the affections of the Moon Goddess.

While he is an existence close to an anti-hero, the reason why Caligula manifested as a Heroic Spirit is unknown. Perhaps the reason was really a prank from a Divine Spirit who governs over the moon, or maybe, the reason secretly exists in his insanity, where perhaps, his spirit from the time of when he was once called a wise ruler was encouraged once again when the demise of human history was laid before him———

Connection with Characters

Nero

The child of his beloved younger sister. His niece. Loves her. She is a blood relative of his, while simultaneously, Nero, being the emperor who took over the next era of Rome back then, is a subject that Caligula ought to love.

Caesar

The ancestor who attained greatness. An ally that should also be called the genuine first emperor. Caesar, who realized the foundation of Imperial Rome by accomplishing the Roman Republic’s subjugation, is a subject that Caligula ought to love.

Romulus

The exalted Divine Ancestor above all else. The whole Roman world began through his way. Being truly the child of the God of War Mars, even though the likes of “Roman emperors were deified after death” already, they cannot even reach this person’s feet.

Altera

Caligula feels an unpleasant presence…

Comment from Illustrator

The Third Emperor of the Roman Empire… he is the uncle who loves Nero. If I remember correctly, I think he is the character I designed first in the beginning. At any rate, he appears Roman! I tried to make that impression become clear. Given that I was drawing while looking with a sidelong glance at Miss Wada’s Nero, he does not feel out of place that much even if they are put side-by-side… I think. Berserkers, there are many nice and cool characters that come out with enough of an aura, or more precisely, flashiness, but it is disappointing because it is common for them with their circumstances to not hold conversations, so their personalities come out a little bit weak.

Notes:

[1] - Should also be including Diana.
