Personality:
Calm and collected, Rider cares a little about Holy Grail War as she is far more concerned about her original Master, Sakura Matou. While seems to be totally cold and uncaring at the surface, Rider does possess emotions and heart, as stated by Shirou in the canon. The reason why she is very protective over Sakura is how Rider sympathize Sakura, since the Matou girl reminds Rider of herself, how they both have to underwent tragic trials, and all. and Shinji’s an utter, despicable failure, after all

Rider is a quiet individual and she is pretty difficult to read. She’s almost always put on her serious façade and shrouded in mystery by wearing that blindfold of her (and to seal the Mystic Eyes from unnecessary use while at it). Of course, she’s just unlikely to show it to everyone, as she couldn’t trust anyone so easy due to her past life where she was treated horribly by everyone, not to mention her sisters. In the interior, Rider’s a human at heart, she is capable of showing sadness, anger, and even happiness.

Sakura. Yes, Sakura play a big role in Rider’s life as a Servant. Whenever it comes to Sakura, Rider will never waste any seconds. Around Sakura, Rider is very polite and generous, acting as if Sakura is her own sister, daughter even. Rider will also obey Sakura at any cost; protecting Shirou under her order, kicking the living daylights out of True Assassin’s while at it… Hell, Rider still protects Sakura when the said girl turns batshit insane. In short, she’s one the most loyal Servant when it comes to obeying Master. Her original Master, that is.

While fighting, Rider plays more the agile role than the defensive role. She’s pretty fast when she’s fighting against Saber in the Fate route, and taken to a whole new level in Carnival Phantasm: ”My riding skill is A+”, that’s why. It is definitely a bad idea to anger Rider as she can be very cruel. When she’s pissed off, Rider will bluntly make a blunt remark of how despicable you are, or bashing your thick skull into nothingness mercilessly. Yes, I am talking about you, Shinji and True Assassin. Oh, although Rider’s pretty formal most of the time, she could also play the mocking and boasting game. This usually happens when she’s battling an enemy, especially when she’s gaining the upper hand in the fight.

In Hollow Ataraxia, she is shown to be quite fond of reading, and possibly harbors a small crush on Shirou.



Game Specific:
Arcana: Empress
Justification:
Nurture, motherhood, and assurance are pretty much come in set when things involves her, Sakura, and how Rider protects her Master. Creativity comes when she was still under Shinji, when Shinji didn’t have enough Prana to supply her that she choose different strategy. On the other hand, her creativity was suppressed to some extend as she had to pull the dirty tactic. And again, over protectiveness , emotional discord, and uncertainty comes to the stage when Sakura’s in, the latter two personalities happening when she had to kill Sakura to protect Shirou, which was Sakura’s order.


Samples:
First Person Sample:
[ The feeds turns on, showing a beautiful woman with long, magenta-colored hair. She’s putting her finger by her chin in a thoughtful pose. ]

I have spoken with many persons here directly, yet they seem to give me but one answer: I am in Prospero, a city in America. I am quite unsure of what’s happening, but…

[ Yes, she know. Secondary Magic and Parallel Worlds, isn’t it? ]

If I am going to speak about Servants, [ A small pause. ] Masters, [ Another pause. ] or Holy Grail War… [ Yet another small pause. ] How many of you are familiar with those terms?

Third Person Sample:

Delicate fingers touched the chain, as the iron nails on the both ends stabbed through the very soul of the wandering Shadows. With a little shifting, Rider, once Medusa, pulled her weapon of choice back to her side. That’s two Shadows on her part, and hopefully the others already defeated enough of them to invite the biggest one joins the fray.

Fighting on the night with other Servants… Really, nothing’s too different from the Grail War. Although the major difference was they weren’t fighting with each other, as they were battling back to back instead. That and no one had their Noble Phantasm to rely on, although Personas could cover that flaw. Here they are, dashing side by side to the same target, slashing minor Shadows while at it.

Irony, but Rider won’t have it any other way.
