Saber asked Berserker his real name and he responded by summoning his sword, Arondight, and breaking open his helmet to reveal his face.
Since the blade was invisible, Saber realized that the only way Berserker could know the shape and length of the blade was if he knew her in life. However as she moved to finish him, Berserker caught her sword between his hands. In the fight, Saber managed to disarm him and damage his armor. Shortly afterwards, Berserker engaged Saber for the final time. Thus Saber went after the real Rider, while Berserker delivered Irisviel to Kariya. Some time later, Berserker kidnapped Irisviel von Einzbern under orders from his master, who’d made a bargain with Kirei Kotomine, using his power to look like Rider. He went after her instead and almost managed to attack her, but was sneak attacked by Archer, forcing him to retreat again. Kariya sent him against Archer and the two engaged in a dog-fight, before Saber caught Berserker’s attention. Soon afterwards, while the other Servants were battling Caster,īerserker arrived and took over a fighter jet with his Noble Phantasm. However Rider intervened, charging into Berserker with his chariot and forcing him to retreat. Lancer tried to defend Saber, but his master Kayneth Archibald El-Melloi used a Command Spell to make him fight alongside Berserker. When Archer was ordered to retreat, Berserker quickly attacked Saber (Altria) with Kariya unable to control him. However he was able to take him on, wielding the weapons fired by Archer’s Gate of Babylon. In the first confrontation between the Servants, Berserker suddenly arrived and was engaged by Archer. In the modern day, Lancelot was summoned as the Berserker-class Servant of Kariya Matou for the Holy Grail War, as Zouken Matou felt it would make up for Kariya lacking as a mage. Lancelot was excommunicated, but sought to aid Altria in the Battle of Camlann, only to be turned away by Gawain. The balance of the Round Table had been fractured, which would lead to the war that would ruin the land. Altria forgave Lancelot, but Gawain hated him as two of the knights he killed were Gawain’s brothers. Lancelot tried to save his love, killing a number of other knights as he did so. Unfortunately, political enemies of the king exposed their affair and Guinevere was sentenced to death. Lancelot considered fleeing Camelot with Guinevere, but chose not to out of loyalty and duty to Altria. However Lancelot fell in love with Altria’s wife, queen Guinevere, whom she’d married to maintain the image that she was a man.
He was one of her few friends, knowing her real gender and the abilities of Excalibur. Berserker was once the knight of the Round Table, Lancelot, and was a loyal knight to his king, Altria.
