#LORD EL MELLOI II HOW DOES IT FIT INTO THE FATE UNIVERSE CODE#

Irony: Kiritsugu's wish for the Grail is to save the world, but instead ends up inadvertently destroying a section of the city.

I Have Your Wife - Uses this against Kayneth.

I Did What I Had to Do - Justification for blowing up buildings, taking hostages, sniping in public, etc.

This is the main reason Kiritsugu is such an effective magus killer as his victims are essentially betrayed by their own magecraft.

#LORD EL MELLOI II HOW DOES IT FIT INTO THE FATE UNIVERSE CODE#

Hoist by His Own Petard - Kiritsugu's Mystic Code and conceptual weapon, the Thompson Contender, gives him the power to inflict this on any magus he fights against by turning his enemy's own magecraft against him and blowing his body up with his own overloaded prana.The Gunslinger - Which is why he is a 'magecraft user' and not a magus.Of course, it doesn't say anything about someone else attacking Kayneth.

Geas - He uses a self-geis scroll to bind himself from attacking Kayneth in Volume 3 as part of a contract to remove both Kayneth and Sola-ui from the war.

Firing One-Handed - Uses his Calico M960 and Thompson Contender thus, despite the latter being modified to fire rifle bullets.

Fatal Flaw - His idealistic beliefs of 'saving everyone', which his adoptive son takes up at his death.Kayneth, being way too prideful, thought that nothing will be able to pass his multi-layered magic fortress. Dungeon Bypass - Episode 6/the start of Volume 2 sees him blow up Kayneth's magic fortress.They aren't even visible in scenes with Ilya. Dull Eyes of Unhappiness - His pupils can be seen momentarily when he glares back at Saber near the end of episode 16, but they just as quickly return to their usual emptiness.Despair Event Horizon - He crossed it a long time ago.As did the realization that had he killed Shirley when she asked him instead of running away, he would have not only saved the village, but also allowed her to die as a human.The fact that his father was to blame for her transformation into a failed Dead Apostle hit Kiritsugu hard and paved the path to his cynical standpoint. Dead Little Sister - His childhood friend, Shirley.Combined with Necessary Evil and I Did What I Had to Do, his modus operandi is exactly how Counter Guardians (the 'verse's resident Dark Messiahs) protect humanity from itself. Dark Messiah - Kiritsugu in his Magus-killing prime was described as appearing at battles around the world only at their most critical stages.But with Avalon and its passive regeneration factor he was able to go three, and then four times faster, in his fight with Kotomine. Dangerous Forbidden Technique - Use of Time Alter causes significant damage to Kiritsugu's body, especially when speeding him up, thus he is unable to go beyond a twofold speed boost initially.He once uses it to avoid Kayneth's autonomous search-and-destroy weapon (by slowing down his bodily functions).

Bullet Time - Through an extension of Emiya magecraft called 'Innate Time Control', he can internally affect time.

Break the Cutie / Troubled Backstory Flashback - His backstory, revealed in Volume 4, involves watching his childhood friend turn his entire village into vampires after she drank a potion which turned her into a failed Dead Apostle, since he refused to Mercy Kill her killing his own father, who was responsible for the potion in the first place and taking down a plane with his mentor and mother-figure on it after they attempt to stop an outbreak of vampirism on said plane.

Ascended Extra - Went from a minor, backstory and flashback exclusive character in Fate/stay night to a major one in the prequel.

Anti-Hero - Unfettered and willing to kill the few to save the many.

And thus Fate/stay night officially begins. Wandering aimlessly through the destroyed city, he finds a small boy, miraculously still alive. He orders Arturia to destroy the Grail, setting the entire city on fire. Killing one to save a hundred, dozens to save thousands. Standing on the Cynical side of the Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism, he believes that it is impossible for everyone in the world to be happy in order to be a true hero, one must eliminate the destructive factors which would in turn threaten the survival of humanity as a whole. Father of Fate/stay night protagonists Emiya Shirou (adopted) and Illyasviel von Einzbern, and Anti-Hero of this story.
