Wears a plain, dark colored kimono.
Alignment: Neutral
Personality: A man equal parts stern and zen, Musashi's number one goal in life is the status of Japan's greatest swordsman. As he has long since achieved that goal, however, he is no longer a hotblooded young man. Cool and calculating, he has a wit sharper than his sword and is not unwilling to manipulate the enemy. In combat, he's ferocious and clever, and his swords resemble the fangs of a tiger and the claws of a dragon.
His hobbies are painting and woodworking. He has an aversion to baths.
History: Musashi was a famous ronin from 17th century Japan, notorious for being an expert duelist, winning numerous fights throughout his life through a combination of wit and skill. Most famously, he fought and killed Sasaki Kojiro when he was about twenty-nine or thirty. Besides this, Musashi was known for his skills as an artist, philosopher, and writer. He was said to have a rough appearance and mannerisms, despite his skill.

Concerns the usage of mounts and vehicles. As Musashi was no cavalryman in life, this is more of a courtesy skill. He has a functional grasp of most vehicles and animals, enough to drive normally.
Magic Resistance: C-
Allows Musashi a basic defense against simpler spells. Due to his being summoned under a false grail, it's weaker than it would be were he a normal Saber.
Personal Skills:
Eye of the Mind (True): A
Despite his countless duels and battles, Musashi mastered many forms of art aside from swordfighting. His powers of observation and analysis have been honed through a lifetime of experience devoted to understanding the Way.
Like Water: B
Musashi was known for winning even wit a wooden sword. Any sword or sword-like weapon used by Musashi is laced with prana, becoming a NP type weapon capable of damaging other Servants.
To clarify, in addition to becoming a viable weapon against Servants, the weapon itself becomes a "ranked up version of itself". If a pool cue and a baseball bat were both affected by this ability, the pool cue would break in fewer hits than the bat. However, both could exchange blows with a Servant. Additionally, weapons utilized by this skill do not become truly unbreakable nor do they possess special properties such as blade beams. They have limited durability and can still only be used as melee weapon.

Musashi relied equally on skill and strategy. He became the world's greatest duelist not only because of his phenomenal skill but because he approached each duel as if it were a battle, coming prepared with a plan and strategy. The more Musashi learns about an enemy's abilities or Noble Phantasm, the more likely he is to develop a counter-strategy.
Noble Phantasm(s): N/A
