Movie
Description
Leonardo da Vinci manifests as a Caster-class Servant contracted to the Chaldea Security Organization. Historically recorded as a peerless handsome man, this incarnation embodies the Mona Lisa, reflecting da Vinci's pursuit of ideal beauty and belief that cultural standards evolve, potentially making the form of a beautiful girl normative. This manifestation stems from da Vinci's self-perception as an "omnipotent genius," mastering diverse fields including magecraft despite lacking conventional Magic Circuits or Crests. Historical peers acknowledged unparalleled achievements across art, science, and mathematics, earning the title Universal Man (Uomo Universale).
Within Chaldea, da Vinci serves as the third successfully summoned Heroic Spirit and technical advisor. To maintain presence despite initial summoning instability, a duplicate puppet body was crafted using techniques akin to a certain doll maker's craft. Accompanying Ritsuka Fujimaru and Mash Kyrielight during the Camelot Singularity in 1273 Jerusalem, da Vinci aids their mission to locate the Holy Grail and resolve humanity-threatening temporal distortions. This includes designing specialized desert vehicles like an ornithopter-inspired craft and providing tactical support against factions including the Knights of the Round Table and Ozymandias.
Da Vinci's personality exhibits rationality and placidity blended with intense curiosity towards novel situations. A self-admitted eccentric, da Vinci openly acknowledges unconventional tendencies like habitual eavesdropping and a fondness for birds, often incorporating avian motifs into inventions. Mechanical birds perch on the shoulders during appearances. While viewing Fujimaru with teacher-like familiarity as a pupil, interactions lack formal hierarchy, resembling mentorship between near-age peers. Relationships feature close camaraderie with Romani Archaman and wary respect towards Sherlock Holmes, whose secretive nature contrasts with da Vinci's hands-on curiosity.
Following destruction in Chaldea's assault by the Foreign God, a contingency activates: a backup Rider-class Spirit Origin designated "Gran Cavallo" manifests. Named after da Vinci's unrealized horse statue project, this younger form inherits memories yet self-identifies as a distinct entity. Operating at diminished capacity due to the spare body's lower output, this version pilots the Shadow Border during Chaldea's escape and joins subsequent Lostbelt expeditions. Personality retains core traits but adopts more youthful speech patterns and expresses anxiety about matching the original's accomplishments. Mechanical arms deploy from a backpack for combat, functioning as manipulators, missile launchers, or propulsion systems.
Da Vinci's capabilities reflect historical ingenuity adapted to Servant abilities. As Caster, Noble Phantasms and skills encompass item construction, territory creation, and "The Universal Man," enhancing defenses and NP damage. The Rider variant utilizes skills like "Accel Turn" for vehicular maneuverability and "Overhaul" for limited party restoration, operating at diminished efficiency relative to the original Spirit Origin.
