PegasusWP (天馬, Tenba?) is the mount of Medusa and Perseus.
Profile
Background
Pegasus was a gift granted to Medusa by Poseidon, residing on the Shapeless Isle. Though belonging to Medusa, her sisters, Stheno and Euryale often used it.[1]
After the degradation of Medusa into the Gorgon and her beheading by Perseus, it is said Pegasus and Chrysaor were born from the Gorgon's blood. They are said to either have been "gifts from the god of the sea" or "last remnants of emotion of a monster that did not want others making use of its corpse."[2][3]
Appearance
Pegasus is a completely white all over its body, with hair, wings, hooves and eyes in a single color.
Personality
Due to its naturally kind nature, Rider has to use Bellerophon to force it to fight.
Role
Fate/stay night
Fate/hollow ataraxia
Detailed in a flashback to Rider's time on the Shapeless Isle, Medusa plans to escape her sisters' bullying by using Pegasus, but they ride it to exhaustion beforehand to prevent her from leaving.[1]
Fate/EXTELLA
Fate/Grand Order
Abilities
Pegasus, unlike the normal members of its species, has advanced to the rank of Phantasmal Beast due to its longevity. Compared its Monstrous Beast brethren that could be defeated by Saber's Invisible Air, Pegasus is completely unaffected by it.[4] It has been alive since the Age of Gods, and now possesses a defensive power on the same level as a dragon and Magic Resistance far greater than that of Saber. The buffets from a Pegasus's wings are capable of generating massive shock waves, which raze infrastructure and lacerate the bodies of living beings.

The monster was slain by the hero.
The terrible Gorgon took many lives in its wrath, but in the end, it was defeated.
Its body was put to many uses by gods and men.
Fatal poisons and elixirs to raise the dead were made from its blood vessels.
The blood that fell upon the desert turned to poisonous snakes.
Its head became a weapon of unmatched power.
The great hero Heracles said its hair could cause an army to rout if it was held up three times.
It's said that generations later, Iskandar, the Conquering King, would add an image of the Gorgon's head as an emblem to his own portrait.
The monster's corpse granted unmatched power, and was used as a symbol for generations to come.
But what of the two Mystics that were born from the blood of the wound inflicted by the hero Perseus?
The Pegasus. The Chrysaor.
Were they gifts from the god of the sea, as the legend says?
Or perhaps...
Were they the last remnants of emotion of a monster that did not want others making use of its corpse?クリューサーオール
怪物は、英雄に斃された。
恐るべきゴルゴーン───
或いはゴルゴンの怪物として猛威を振るった存在は
数多くの人間を殺戮してみせたが、
遂に、最期の刻を迎えた。
怪物の死骸を、人々と神はさまざまに利用した。
血管からは致死の毒と死者再生の霊薬が作られた。
砂漠に落ちた血は毒蛇へと変じた。
首は無二の武器となった。
毛髪は、三度かざせば軍勢を潰走させるであろうと
かの大英雄ヘラクレスは告げた。
後世、征服王イスカンダルは自らの肖像に
ゴルゴーンの首を象った記章を懸けさせたという。
怪物の死骸は無二の力であり、
ある種の象徴としても長きに渡って扱われ続けた。
ならば、英雄ペルセウスの一撃にて
引き裂かれた傷口よりこぼれた血から生まれた
二体の神秘とは何か。
ペガサス。
クリューサーオール。
伝説にある通り、海神からの贈り物の顕れなのか？
或いは。
死骸を貪られる事を拒まんとする
怪物の、最期の想いか。 - ↑ Fate/Grand Order - Medusa (Saber) Profile - Translated by Konchew
