Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova. The youngest daughter of Nikolai II, the last emperor of Russia from the Romanov Dynasty. She was caught up in the tumultuous conflict of the Russian Revolution, and was killed at Ipatiev House along with her family, servants, and even pets.

Height/Weight: 158cm, 40kg Origin: History Region: Russia Alignment: Neutral-Balanced Sub-Attribute: Human Gender: Female Anastasia formed a contract with Viy, the spirit secretly kept by the Romanov Dynasty.

While she is naturally innocent, she tends to behave in a rather aloof manner immediately after she is summoned, as she is rather mistrustful of others. After gaining her trust, her more mischievous side becomes apparent. There is even a rather cute record of her taking a photograph of herself while looking into a mirror...a selfie, in the modern parlance. A few letters to her family survive today, providing a glimpse of her naivete and deep love for her family.

Schwipsig: B Meaning "little devil," this is simultaneously one of Anastasia's nicknames and one of Viy's skills. It is with this that little impossibilities, small acts of mischief, are made possible, whether it be creating small cracks in the ground to trip someone up, or snatching objects out of people's hands and having them fly into your own. While this skill seems outrageous, its effective range is small and it cannot inflict serious or fatal harm.

『Viy Viy Viy』 Rank: EX NP Type: Elemental Spirit Range: ? Maximum Targets: ? Let Your Wicked Eye Run Free! Viy's Mystic Eyes are fully unleashed. They see through everything and can twist even causality, creating weaknesses that were never there before. 『Sumerki Kreml'』 Rank: A+ NP Type: Fortress Range: 1 - 99 Maximum Targets: 11 Persons + 1 Animal Afterglow, Fortress of Cursed Blood. A reproduction of the multiple fortresses (called Kremlin, or Kreml') that have been built throughout Russia. Anastasia, by her right as a descendant of the Romanov Dynasty, summons a splendid, impregnable fortress to protect herself. Only those whom Anastasia selects may enter this castle. Any others will be seen as invaders, and the fortress will attack them. This Noble Phantasm is, as a rule, not used in FGO.

The Elemental, or creature, called Viy does not really exist. It is a fictional monster from the horror novella "Viy" by Nikolai Gogol, one of Russia's preeminent literary figures. However, there are many Slavic folk tales of spirits closely resembling Viy, and it's assumed that the story is based on them. The version of Viy that has formed a contract with Anastasia is a familiar kept by the Romanov Dynasty. Using his Mystic Eyes, Viy could expose secrets, seek out a fortress's weakness, and paint the walls with his enemies' blood. Without the necessary aptitude, one could not even see him, much less control him. It was only on the very brink of death that Anastasia earned the right to form a contract with him.

Under normal circumstances, she would not have had significant power even as a Servant, but with the Lostbelt's intervention, she acquired Viy's power, titanically enhancing her own. She is constantly tormented by her conflicted feelings about her sense of duty to lead the people as a descendant of Romanov Dynasty and her anguish for the murder of her family and herself at the hands of those very people. While it is her Master who decides which sentiment she should choose to feel, in most cases they will likely have her take the difficult path of fulfilling her duty even while harboring hatred. She is notably not weak-willed enough to keep hating some unknown individual.
