Character Info:
Name: Irisviel von Einzbern
Age: Body in her twenties, actually nine
Canon: Fate/Zero
>Pull Point: The morning before Irisviel and Saber move to the Japanese house

Background Info:
History: Right here
Personality: Irisviel is a very kind, gentle, innocent woman. When Saber is summoned, she takes Saber in as if she is the Master instead of Kiritsugu, She treats Saber with respect and kindness, acting as her second in battle as she tries to heal all of Saber's wounds during her fight with Lancer. When Kotomine comes to attack, she puts herself into harm's way against him to try and save Kiritsugu. Even her pretending to be Saber's Master is more than being kind to Saber; it's protecting Kiritsugu from those who would try to kill him to take out Saber.

Irisviel also knows only the basics how to defend herself, furthering the fact she is kind and gentle. She doesn't try to hurt anyone, and is in fact horrified when she sees what Kiritsugu did to take out Lancer, Kayneth, and Sola-Ui. She uses wires that she shapes, creating a bird to attack Kotomine and wind around him to immobilize him instead of trying to kill him or hurt him so badly he can't move.

She's very innocent, having been in the Einzbern castle most of her life. Irisviel had been kept away from the world, and in fact would have been completely ignorant of everything in the world if Kiritsugu hadn't entered the picture. As it is, she knows certain things (like how to fight and drive), but it's a very innocent type of knowledge. She knows of to defend herself using very defensive moves, but not how to properly attack and kill. She knows how to handle a car from driving one at the castle, but she doesn't know the rules of the road nor how to drive sensibly, seeing the car and the road like a new toy. She knows that Kiritsugu is a killer, but she's never seen it happen until he takes out Kayneth and Sola-Ui.

Game Specific:
Arcana: Star
Justification: The Star is about calmness, free-flowing love, tranquility, generosity, joy, optimism… perfectly Irisviel


Samples:

First Person Sample: [Suddenly. Video. It looked like someone had dropped the phone, and slim white fingers fumble over it] Oh, oh! How do you use one of these…? [The fingers fumble a bit more, then manage to pick up it, fingers shaking] A light's on… does that mean it's already working? Um, how do they do this… [A woman was looking curiously at the screen, pale face and red eyes framed by long white hair. She carefully brought the phone to her ear] Kiritsugu? Maiya? Are you there? Saber? [She pulled the phone away from her head to look at it, dropping it again in the process] Oh no! [The video turned off as she fumbled with the phone again, making lightly distressed noises as her fingers lack the strength to hold onto the device]

Third Person Sample: It was a tough full moon. Irisviel looked up at the Shadow with determined eyes, her fists clenched. She couldn't really fight it, but that wouldn't stop her from standing with the rest of the inhabitants of Prospero. She could help with her Persona, try to lead other smaller Shadows away from the fighters so they wouldn't get hurt. Heal those that were hurt.

This was something she could do for all of Prospero. Irisviel tensed as the Shadow started attacking, wishing for her wires again. She could bind the Shadow for a bit, to help out. But not having them would be okay. She clasped her hands together, concentrating to feel the movement of her Persona within her. The power she could use to bring it forth, to fight in the way she could. She wasn't helpless.

She would make Kiritsugu proud.
