The god of love in Roman myth. A girl named Caren Hortensia was chosen for this Pseudo-Servant's vessel. The combination of Amor's Authority and Caren's personality melded so well together that they were reborn into the miraculous and perfectly fused Divine Spirit Caren! (Or so she claims.) She was chosen to be a sacrifice as a Servant on humanity's side during the Incineration of Humanity. She may be a bit eccentric, but deep down it all stems from her devotion to this world!

Height/Weight: 156cm, 40kg Origin: Greek mythology, Roman mythology, Fate/hollow ataraxia Region: Mediterranean Sea, Europe Alignment: Lawful-Good Sub-Attribute: Heaven Gender: Female "No matter what form I take, I am a sister in service of the Lord, but I currently fulfill Amor's duties as well. You consider this conversion to a different faith? Worry not. The Lord is infinite in His love."

In three words, Caren's personality can be described as dry, cool, and cynical. She may be a young girl, but you'll never hear her speak honeyed words. Is she a saintly devil, or a devilish saint? Scathing. Clear-eyed. Abusive. Promiscuous. Ruthless. Caren has been described in these terms, but above all, she is a saint who is girlishly innocent at heart. Her powerful conviction and faith stem from her lifelong dedication to her Lord in Heaven and all the souls He loves. When Caren was chosen to play Amor's role, the jolt that ran through her body was not revulsion toward a false god, but rather a thunderous sense of duty. Amor may be of a different pantheon, but his role as a messenger of love is an admirable one. Is not the best way to return God's love carrying out that duty with all her heart? And if that means unilaterally altering people's fates, who can blame her for being excited!? ...Burning with a newfound passion for her work, she changes her name to Caren C. Hortensia and sets off to bring righteousness to Valentine's Day at Chaldea.

Eros, the god of love in Greek mythology, and Amor, the god of love in Roman mythology, comprise Caren's divine core. Although she goes by Amor in her angelic form, Caren uses her own name while in her default second Ascension form and completely rejects Eros (he's useless anyway). Furthermore, she puts impersonates Cupid, said to symbolize both of the aforementioned deities. This behavior too stems from Caren's devout belief that love is selfless. Amor aside, this is also part of her rejection of Eros (sexual love). In Greek philosophy, there are four types of love: erotic, friendly, philanthropic, and filial. Caren's idea of a god's philanthropic love (agape) shuns erotic love, which she sees as vulgar. Thus, Caren is a Pseudo-Servant of Amor, a god of love, but fundamentally denies Amor and Eros, believing herself to be a messenger of a far greater form of love. The eccentric, contradictory streak of masochism and sadism that runs through this Servant is indeed very much like Caren.

Item Construction: A A professional at fashioning tools to be used on the heart. This represents Caren's arrows of love. They'll give you a push when you're about to falter, stirring your heart to function even better. She can create many such wonderful items. Independent Action: A Caren C. Hortensia, messenger of love, serves more than just her Master. She has a duty to the Lord's heart and to all the people His love must reach. She is not bound by her Master's business; she does whatever she wants. Masochistic Medium's Nature: EX A physical disposition prone to being possessed by nearby demons, regardless of the owner's will. Recreates demons that exist as phenomena and, under certain conditions, physically incarnates them. Easily afflicted by Poison, Curse, and Burn-related status effects. Furthermore, Caren's offensive power increases while under such effects. Fearsome sadism born of masochism. Still, it's not something she can do on command. Core of the Goddess: B This was originally Amor's Divinity skill, but his host's powerful faith has transformed it. To the girl, only her almighty Father possesses true divinity. Iron Faith: A Caren's personal variant of the Craft Essence "Iron-Willed Training." An albino girl who should have died at birth defied all expectations and grew up. She believes that her survival can only be a miracle and physical proof of God's love. Acquired as a passive skill with resistance to Terror, Charm, and Buster effects.

『The Greatest Hits: "Calling Agape"』 Rank: EX NP Type: Anti-Personnel Range: 1 - 99 Maximum Targets: Unknown Universally Unconditional and Infinite Love. This is a Noble Phantasm of heavenly ascent and descent as a prayer-cloaked agent of new, universal love. Caren transforms not into Amor, but the heavenly love at his source, delivering an attack of divine wrath that illuminates the world with unconditional and infinite love. Anyone can see that it's an anti-world Noble Phantasm, but its user insists that it's meant to be used against people. Caren's idea of love applies unconditionally to all of mankind. It is the purely selfless love of a god; it is agape. Once upon a time, in tiger colosseum, Caren wielded a morning star named "My Weight Is Equal to My Wielder's Love." Caren loves all of humanity, ergo her hammer is as heavy as Earth, at least for the FGO edition. The love beams are the infinite part, and it's unconditional because Caren generously won't charge you a fee for getting blasted. Shroud of Valentinus: A Eros (erotic love). This was originally Caren's trusty Shroud of Magdala, but she's now using it as a "shroud of lovers." Apparently, she named it after Valentinus to play along with the holiday spirit at Chaldea. Golden Arrow: A Philia (friendly love). Angelic arrows that Amorize human hearts they pierce. Forcefully. "Love always comes as a surprise, doesn't it?" Mana Burst (Love): A Storge (filial love) aka God Caren. A super-buff called forth for the singular one she loves and must protect. Sounds kinda awesome.

Rather than Fate/hollow ataraxia...this is Caren from Fate/tiger colosseum. The girl dispatched as a Church Overseer was taciturn and spoke nothing of her own opinions and circumstances, but this time, freed from the duties of a sister, she's taken on the attitude of something more like a mastermind, freely talking, working, and scheming. (A mastermind she may be, but she's only working to create happiness for all, rather than acting out of any malice.) ...That said, Caren sure does have a troublesome personality, being as much of a masochist as she is a sadist. She loves seeing people suffer, and loves her own physical suffering. That's why she plans out better lives for people, but prepares harsh trials before any can reach those ends. Caren approves of generating revenue, but only so she can use those funds as a symbol of authority or to control people. After all, people wish for God's love and dominion. To Caren, who occasionally becomes one with God's will during fervent prayer (according to her), earning money will lead to greater joy for all. The Church teaches that it is wrong to hoard worldly wealth, but Caren does not consider money to be wealth, and cares little for the currency she gathers. She is simply excited by the act of accumulating money; she has no thoughts of buying nice things with that money, nor using it to live in luxury. It seems that to her, it is merely a resource to be spent. 　　　◆ While she has offered herself to any number of people and animals to exorcise their demons, thinking always of their happiness...she has only ever felt pure, human love—wishing someone else happiness for her own sake—for one person. Even now, the memories and wishes of that time are buried deep within her heart.
