Devil Saber (魔神セイバー, Majin Seibā?) is a parody Saber-class Servant appearing in Koha-Ace XP. She was later reworked into a more serious version in Fate/KOHA-ACE.
Profile
Identity
Devil Saber is a fusion between Sakura Saber and Demon Archer. She makes it her mission to put an end to the Fate franchise in the Koha-Ace World. This backstory is later changed for her more serious incarnation in Fate/KOHA-ACE.
Appearance
Devil Saber appears as a young woman with long white hair, tied back at either side with red tassels. She wears a red and black dress bearing similarity to a short kimono and long European style coat, complete with high collar held closed by a rope tassel. She appears to wear long stockings.
Personality
Role
Koha-Ace XP
Various characters try to defeat her with no effect, including Saber, Mordred, Lancelot, and Gawain. She is eventually defeated by Arcueid Brunestud, Aoko Aozaki, Nagato from Kantai CollectionWP, a myriad of other characters, and Saber.
After XP was finished, the author wanted to utilize the design more, so he thought "I'll somehow get it out there... Yeah! I'll use it as something like Okita Alter in Imperial Capital!" and utilized her in Fate/Koha Ace. As for Demon Archer's part in it, "The Nobu's component? Who's that? Someone who rolls the gatcha?" When asked why her background was changed, she says it's so she can appear in Fate/Grand Order.
Abilities
Saber has a great advantage over characters representing the Fate franchise. She survived getting hit by Excalibur and defeated Artoria Pendragon right afterwards.[2] It takes the combined efforts of Gawain, Lancelot, and Bedivere to temporarily stop her. While Nero Claudius is able to seal her away from the rest of the world with Aestus Domus Aurea, her nature as a Fate character still means she can't defeat her. It isn't until Arcueid Brunestud and Aoko Aozaki arrive that the former manages to restrain her with her Marble Phantasm.[3]
