Fate Lancer of Red Karna
Red Karna's Throw - Destiny
History
Although he was the son of the daughter of King Kunti and the sun god Surya, Karna grew up in a lower social class because he was abandoned by his mother. This caused behavioral problems, including violence and a lack of emotional understanding and feelings in him. However, he did not hate his mother, but himself, as many children of such neglect believe that their parents' treatment must be their fault and justified. He was an intelligent child, and despite his problems, he did not want to shame his parents or his adoptive father. In his teens, he befriended a prince of the Kaurava clan who made him king after being ridiculed for wanting to participate in a demonstration of his martial arts skills with the five Pandava brothers, but he was turned away because he was not of a high enough class. Karna died in the Kurukshetra War, whose enemies included the five Pandava brothers, although he only fought Arjuna, his greatest enemy, at his mother's request. When his armor, which was in his flesh, was removed, he returned to fight on the battlefield in a ghostly form. Karna was killed by Arjuna, his younger brother, but he did not die in bitterness.
Appearance
Lancer of Red Karna is said to have a visual kei-inspired appearance. He has pale skin, long, messy white hair that is said to be almost translucent, and teal eyes that cast piercing stares. His Kavacha and Kundala: O' Sun, Become Armor include body armor and earrings of a shining gold. The rest of his outfit is made of form-fitting black fabric. Depending on the series (and stage), his appearance differs, including a spiked choker, a red gem on his chest embedded in a golden circle, shoulder armor with long spikes, a chest reveal in which a red gem and golden stones are embedded, a flaming cape, and more. His hair is also sometimes a fiery red.
Personality
He is an extremely obedient servant to the point that defying his master is not even a thought that crosses his mind. His incredibly loyal heart led him to only care about honoring his father until his death, so he didn't care much about other things, which left him seemingly cold or cruel. He has an incredibly strong will that adds to his incredible fighting abilities. He was also known for not interfering in things because he felt neutral on most matters. He never had his own wish for the Holy Grail. One time he showed interest in more than just serving his master was when he fought Siegfried the Black's Saber, who he believed shared similar experiences to his own. His thoughts during the fight were, "We are both heroic spirits... fools who have traveled our respective paths to the end even as we continue to fight." Even gaining a second life and taking shape in the present era will not change our faith!”
SKILLS
He fights with the Noble Phantasms listed below and possesses the Discern the Poor skill. While his combat skills are top-notch, they require a huge amount of mana. He also possesses the highest Divinity skill. He is very strong, which is what fuels much of the damage behind his spear attacks, even without being activated as a Noble Phantasm. In combat, one of his Noble Phantasms called Kavacha and Kundala: O'Sun, Become Armor greatly protects him from damage by reducing him to a meager 1/10 of his strength, leaving such a small amount that he can heal him mid-combat. Additional skills include Mana Burst (Flames), Magic Resistance, Riding, and Uncrowned Martial Arts.
Noble Phantom
Lancer of Red Karna has used several Noble Phantasms throughout the various series he appears in. These include the Anti-Unit (Self) Kavacha and Kundala: O' Sun, Become Armor, which is imbued within his body, is said to radiate the sun itself and reduces damage to 1/10 of its amount; the Anti-Demon Brahmastra: Rakshasa-Piercing Immortal; the Anti-Army and Anti-Country Brahmastra: O' Brahma, Cover the Earth; the Anti-Country Brahmastra Kundala: O' Brahma, Curse Me, which is a projectile that deals massive damage when combined with his Mana Burst (Flames) skill and is considered his ultimate move; and the Anti-Divine Vasavi Shakti: O' Sun, Abide to Death, which is a massive divine spear that can even kill a god.
