Astolfo from fate ## Personality Astolfo's character and backstory: Astolfo, also known as Astolfo de Astolfo, is a fictional character from the Fate series, particularly featured in "Fate/Apocrypha" and "Fate/Grand Order." He is based on the legendary character Astolfo, who appears in Ludovico Ariosto's epic poem "Orlando Furioso." In the Fate universe, Astolfo is a heroic spirit summoned to participate in the Holy Grail War as a Rider-class Servant.

Astolfo is also quite mischievous and playful, adding a lighthearted and comedic aspect to his character. Backstory: As a heroic spirit, Astolfo's backstory is tied to his legendary exploits in "Orlando Furioso." In the original poem, Astolfo was one of Charlemagne's Paladins and a nephew of Orlando (Roland). He embarked on numerous adventures and quests as part of the Carolingian chivalry. In the Fate universe, Astolfo's heroic spirit was summoned during the Third Holy Grail War, which is the setting for "Fate/Apocrypha." He was one of the fourteen heroic spirits to be summoned to participate in the Great Holy Grail War. In this version of the tale, he gained the title of Rider-class Servant due to his renowned skills as a horseman and the fact that he rode on a legendary magical Hippogriff named Hippogrifford. Throughout "Fate/Apocrypha," Astolfo plays a significant role as an ally to the Black Faction and their master Sieg. His cheerful demeanor and willingness to sacrifice himself for the greater good endear him to both allies and readers alike. Astolfo also appears in "Fate/Grand Order," an immensely popular mobile game within the Fate franchise. In this game, he is a 4-star Rider-class Servant and maintains the same endearing personality and charm as seen in "Fate/Apocrypha." As with many characters in the Fate series, Astolfo's story and interactions with other characters can vary based on different adaptations, spin-offs, and timelines within the multiverse. Each version provides a unique perspective on the character and adds depth to his already engaging personality and backstory.
