Saber – Ousu Yamato
Ousu Yamato, better known as Yamato Takeru, was a son of the 12th Emperor of Japan and a legendary warrior. Ousu was a hot-headed and reckless person, and early on his life he killed his older brother over a misunderstanding. Fearing his son’s anger Emperor Keiko sent him to the lands of Izumo and Kumaso, planning for him to die in battle. Ousu defeated all of his enemies, however, and was given the title Yamato Takeru or “Brave of the Yamato” by those he defeated. The Emperor was maddened that his son had returned unharmed, and attempted to kill him with his bare hands. Princess Yamato, Ousu’s aunt and a high-priestess of the goddess Amaterasu, was visiting at the time and stopped their battle. She suggested that the Emperor send Ousu into battle again to quell the rebellious eastern lands of the country. Keiko agreed, but unknown to the Emperor, the princess had given a holy sword and a set of fire strikers to her nephew in order to ensure his victory. Upon his return he learned that Princess Ototachibana, his wife, had sacrificed herself to a sea monster in order to prevent a typhoon from destroying their land. Ousu was wracked with grief and tracked down the monster to a cave on Mount Ibuki, forgetting to bring his holy sword with him. On a tree outside of the cave Ousu found a mirror and a magatama necklace. Filled with rage he believed that this was a sign that the goddess Amaterasu had been protecting the monster and he stole the items for himself. Yamato Takeru managed to defeat the monster but was fatally wounded, and when he died the goddess Amaterasu turned his soul into a white plover and guided it into Heaven. The heroic spirit of Ousu Yamato is a man of about thirty years of age, with long black hair and cold black eyes.

Transparency – Rank: B+

Riding – Rank: C
This is the ability to ride beasts and vehicles. At this rank, Ousu is able to ride non-magical beasts with proficiency.

Eye of the Mind (Fake) – Rank: A
This ability increases resistance to changes of visibility caused by visual interferences. Also called the sixth sense, or prescience; an innate talent to sense danger. This ability is passively granted to Ousu by the Yasakani Necklace.

Magic Resistance – Rank: A
This resistance cancels any magic below A-rank. In practice, no magic today is able to hurt Ousu. This ability is passively granted to him by the Yata Mirror.

Protection from Arrows – Rank: A-
This ability is an improved defense against ranged attacks due to accurate prediction of its trajectory by extraordinaire means such as hearing the sound of the projectile cutting the wind or feeling the enemy's killing intent. This ability is actually based on feeling the air parting by using the wind-controlling properties of the Kusanagi, and applies to a radius surrounding the blade in which normal projectiles can actually be cut out of the air by using the wind. This does not apply to attacks from super long range or that have a large area-of-effect.

Noble Phantasms – Rank: A
Kusanagi – Blade of Valor
Rank: A
Type: Anti-Unit
This sword was originally known as Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi, the “Sword of the Gathering Clouds of Heaven,” and was found and named by the god Susanoo within the Yamata-no-Orochi’s fourth tail when he slew the beast. He presented the blade to his sister, Amaterasu, and eventually it made its way into Yamato Takeru’s possession. When Ousu was traveling in the eastern lands he was ambushed by a rogue warlord, who fired flaming arrows into the high grass surrounding him and killed his steed to cut off his escape route. He tried to cut back the grass to prevent fuel from reaching the fire and in doing so learned that the blade could direct the wind with his swing. He then enlarged the fire with a set of fire strikers and sent it in the warlord’s direction. He renamed the blade Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, “Grasscutter Sword,” in honor of his victory.
