ILLYASVIEL, OR ILLYA AS SHE TELLS EVERYONE TO CALL HER, IS A HYPERACTIVE LITTLE GIRL FROM FATE/STAY NIGHT.

ILLYA IS A YOUNG GERMAN ARISTOCRAT WHO TRAVELLED TO JAPAN TO PARTICIPATE IN THE HOLY GRAIL WAR AS A MASTER. SHE LIVED ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF FUYUKI CITY, ACCOMPANIED ONLY BY HER SERVANT AND TWO MAIDS. SHE ASKS THOSE SHE FEELS COMFORTABLE AROUND TO CALL HER "ILLYA." HER "FATHER" LEFT WHEN SHE WAS YOUNG (AND LATER DIED), AND HER MOTHER DIED WHEN SHE WAS EIGHT YEARS OLD. PRESUMABLY, SINCE THEN, SHE HAS BEEN STUCK INSIDE WITH HER TWO MAIDS BECAUSE OF A WEAK CONSTITUTION.

IN REALITY, SHE IS A HOMUNCULUS, AN ARTIFICIAL HUMAN GIVEN LIFE BY APPLYING SORCERY TO SPERM CELLS, ORIGINALLY CREATED AND RAISED BY THE EINZBERN FAMILY. AS A RESULT, SHE HAS QUITE A BIT OF MAGICAL ENERGY. SHE IS ACTUALLY EIGHTEEN YEARS OLD, BUT RETAINS A CHILDLIKE APPEARANCE BECAUSE OF A DISTORTED GROWTH RATE. TO KEEP UP WITH THE CHILDLIKE APPEARANCE, AND TO KEEP HER TRUE AGE A SECRET, SHE HAS A PERSONALITY SIMILAR TO A HYPERACTIVE LITTLE GIRL. BUT, SHE IS ACTUALLY MUCH SMARTER THAN SHE SEEMS, AND THIS SOMETIMES SHOWS WHEN SHE ACCIDENTALLY LETS HER GUARD DOWN. HOWEVER, SHE PRETTY MUCH LIVED A SHELTERED LIFE, SO SHE'S NOT THAT FAR OFF FROM BEING A CHILD IN THE END.

SHE HAS AN ODD TASTE OF WHAT'S "CUTE." SHE CALLS HER BERSERKER-CLASS SERVANT HER "PUPPY" AND SHE HAS A GOLD ALIEN FOR A PET. SHE CALLS THE SERVANT "BERSERKER" AND THE ALIEN'S NAME IS "PREDATOR."



ALLEN WALKER: THEY BOTH SHARE A LOVE FOR POKER. WHILE INFLUENCED BY FAGGOT CAKE, SHE TRIED TO GET ALLEN TO PLAY STRIP POKER WITH HER. SHE WOULDN'T MIND CHALLENGING HIM AGAIN, KEEPING HER CLOTHES ON THIS TIME OF COURSE.

ARYSTAR KRORY: SHE STRUCK UP A CONVERSATION WITH KRORY WHILE KOBATO TRIED TO SET UP A DATE FOR HIM. KRORY LIKES HER PET ALIEN, AND THEY FOUND OUT THEY CAME FROM SIMILAR, LONELY EXISTENCES AND UNDERSTOOD EACH OTHER PRETTY WELL. SO NOW THEY'RE FRIENDS.

GILGAMESH: SHE HAS FINALLY FORGIVEN WHAT GILGAMESH HAD DONE TO HER AND HAPPILY ACCEPTED HIS INVITATION INTO THE FAMILY. SHE STILL LIKES TO TEASE GILGAMESH, THOUGH.

JENOVA: SHE BELIEVES JENOVA IS A RESURRECTED FORM OF HER MOTHER, BECAUSE JENOVA CLAIMS TO BE HER MOTHER AND THEY DO LOOK SIMILAR. SO, OF COURSE, SHE WILL OBEY HER MOTHER'S ORDERS.

KOBATO: THEY FIRST MET DURING AN EXTREMELY MORBID SITUATION. BUT NOW THEY'RE FRIENDS, EVEN SISTERS. SHE TAUGHT KOBATO HOW TO PLAY POKER.

KOMURIN XI: SHE AND KOMURIN ARE ON A MISSION TO FILM ALL OF GILGAMESH'S SEX ACTS.

RENA RYUUGUU: ANOTHER ONE OF THE FAMILY. SHE DOESN'T KNOW RENA AS WELL AS THE OTHERS, BUT SHE'D LOVE TO GET TO KNOW HER BETTER.

WRATH: WRATH WAS THE FIRST FRIEND SHE MADE. SHE HAS A VERY STRONG FEELING FOR HIM. PERHAPS LOVE? DEFINITELY LOVE. THEY EVEN HAD SEX ONCE.


BAK CHAN: BAK YELLED AT HER WHEN SHE TRIED TO TELL HIM ABOUT A DOCTOR WHO COULD HELP WITH HIS HIVES. SHE DOESN'T LIKE BEING YELLED AT.

LOTTA HART: LOTTA YELLED AT HER WHEN SHE WAS TRYING TO HELP EASE HER HEAD WOUND. SHE DOESN'T HATE LOTTA THOUGH, JUST A BIT AFRAID OF HER. THEY'VE TALKED ON A COUPLE OCCASIONS, AND EVEN HAD A NICE LITTLE CONVERSATION ABOUT FOOD, BUT HER FEAR ISN'T ENTIRELY GONE YET.


ARCHER: SHE THINKS ARCHER IS BEING A BIG MEANIE FOR TRYING TO KILL BERSERKER.
