History Characters / FateGrandOrderAvengers

** Her Ephermal Dream skill was buffed via Rank Up Quest for "Ordeal Call II" to add a self-NP battery of 30~50%, helping to better supplement her offensive nature.

* BlackSwordsAreBetter: Played With. Her version of La Pucelle is a black sword to vanilla Jeanne's silver, and while it's not an EX-Rank NP that can annihilate anything, it's still incredibly destructive one that doesn't kill her after one use.

* {{Catchphrase}}: "Wait and hope" ("Attendre et espérer"), which originally was part of the closing thoughts from the novel.

* LighterAndSofter: Despite being summoned in the Avenger Class, the playable Jeanne Alter is this to the antagonist Ruler Jeanne Alter fought in the "First Singularity: Hundred Years' War of the Evil Dragons: Orleans". Ruler Jeanne Alter was stoic and cold compared to the much more emotive and funny playable Jeanne Alter. The most obvious sign of this is Avenger Jeanne Alter has an ahoge that the Ruler variant is missing.
** In a way she ironically can be considered this to the original Jeanne, since due to not having any of Jeanne's memories it means Jeanne Alter has no experiences going to war, or even being burned at the stake, and despite her crass nature does have a more innocent way of viewing things than the original Jeanne does, this is even lampshaded with the "Three Little Jeannes" story in Salem where Jeanne Alter spends the story acting as the StraightMan to Jeanne's violent antics.
--->'''Jeanne''': "Not yet! I won't run away after merely having my castle burned down! This time, I shall vanquish them!"
--->'''Jeanne Alter''': "Kinda weird that she's the most bloodthirsty of all of us, don'tcha think?"

* CatchPhrase: ItCantBeHelped.

* {{Catchphrase}}: The Genji must die. It doubles as her MadnessMantra, as she repeats it constantly in most of her lines.

* DopplegangerAttack: In her Third Ascension, she clones herself multiple times to attack her opponent from all sides for her Quick and Extra attack animations in a replication of Ushiwakamaru's Dan-no-ura Hassou Tobi as depicted in ''Anime/FateGrandOrderAbsoluteDemonicFrontBabylonia''.

Another version of the Counter of Monte Cristo, Edmond Dantes. He debuted in Ordeal Call II: Id - Irreparable Wasteland Hole as the main antagonist.

* ThePowerOfHate: Avengers, as their name implies, are fueled by hatred and [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge a lust for revenge]] so intense they'd destroy the world to attain it. Only their [[MoralityPet Masters and whoever else they still cherish in spite of their rage]] can keep them from going on a rampage. Their Avenger class skill is The Power of Hate weaponized, making them more powerful the more hatred others have for them.

* LostInTranslation: In the original Japanese version of the game Jeanne Alter calls Ritsuka "Master-Chan" as an AffectionateNickname, this isn't present in translations most likely because it wouldn't make sense why a French woman would be using Japanese honorifics. This is reinforced by the fact characters like Osakabehime and Sei Shounagon who are Japanese and use variants of the same nickname[[note]]Ma-Chan for Osakabehime, and Chan-Mas for Sei[[/note]] are kept in other versions.

* GoOutWithASmile: [[spoiler:At the end of Ordeal Call II, when she's starting to disappear from the instability of her Spirit Origin in conflict with the plot, she manages to give Fujimaru one last smile before she vanishes from right in front of him.]]

** [[spoiler:Shown off during Ordeal Call II to a wonderful degree. While the reason for Fujimaru being placed into those events was less than ideal, she goes in with them to give them one last happy memory while covered under her usual tsundere nature. The true goldness of her heart shows just before she disappears where she prioritizes making sure Fujimaru gets one last happy memory before they need to part ways.]]

* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: In Ordeal Call II when the Avengers talk about what they like about Fujimaru, Jeanne Alter says that she knows that they're popular, [[{{Tsundere}} but it's not like she's into that]]. Unfortunately for her EveryoneCanSeeIt as her classmates smirk and Hessian shrugs, causing her to threaten to burn them all.

* SuspciouslySpecificDenial: In Id when the Avengers talk about what they like about Fujimaru, Jeanne Alter says that she knows that they're popular, [[{{Tsundere}} but it's not like she's into that]]. Unfortunately for her EveryoneCanSeeIt as her classmates smirk and Hessian shrugs, causing her to threaten to burn them all.

* GoOutWithASmile: [[spoiler:At the end of Ordeal Call II, when she's starting to disappear from the instability of her Spirit Origin in conflict with the plot, she manages to give Fujimaru one last smile before she vanishes from right in front of him. While she's not dead, this is the last time the two would get to see each-other for a very long time.]]

* IChooseToStay: [[spoiler:At the end of Id, she chooses to remain with Chaldea instead of going on ahead to Antartica with the rest of the Avengers, reasoning that since she's not a "conventional" Avenger, its okay for her to stick around.]]

* DoNotCallMePaul: She doesn't like to be called Jeanne, only Jeanne Alter. Which makes sense because they're entirely different people.

The world's most popular [[BestServedCold revenge-seeking hero]], popularly known as the Count of Monte Cristo. He was imprisoned in the hellish Château d'If due to a false charge by an unscrupulous conspiracy, but he did not fall to despair thanks to a mind of steel. He eventually acquired the treasure of Monte Cristo and swooped upon Paris, dragging down many French leading figures who deceived him into hell.\\\

* TheScapegoat: This Marie reflects the slander she received from the French people over the country's failings. Her Bloodstained Necklace skill is a reference to the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affair_of_the_Diamond_Necklace Affair of the Diamond Necklace]], an incident in which she allegedly defrauded the Crown's jewellers to obtain an opulent diamond necklace even as the country's coffers were strained to the brink. In truth, her signature had been forged by Jeanne de Valois-Saint-Rémy, but the story was one of many that gave moral weight to the French Revolution. In-lore, it functions like the Innocent Monster skill, warping her with the many slanderous tellings of her story. This is so severe that her Alignment changed from Man to Earth, meaning that she is more fiction than fact despite being a historical figure. This is a trait she shares with Antonio Sallieri, a fellow Avenger who was warped into an unrecognizable figure by the many false stories of him hating Mozart.

* BalanceBuff: Her NP was buffed via Rank Up Quest for the 6th Anniversary to not only increase the base damage, but also drops 30 Critical Stars to better serve her ability as a CriticalHitClass.

* OffWithTheirHead: Her first Noble Phantasm, Guillotine Ricanement: Gullotine of Mockery, allows her to summon the very guillotine that killed her to use as a weapon. Her primary attacks in her later Ascensions involve summoning this guillotine to behead her foes. She can summon multiple copies of the blade to rain from the sky, swing the blade by its rope to slit her foes' throats, or summon the entire apparatus to trap and finish her opponent.

* ButNowIMustGo: [[spoiler:At the end of Ordeal Call II, most of Chaldea's Avengers leave with prompting from Dantès, as they and Fujimaru conclude that their focus on anger and vengeance doesn't fit with Fujimaru's personality and how Fujimaru wants to resolve the CHALDEAS plot. The Avengers choose to leave because they want Fujimaru to stay true to themselves. In-game this is represented by most of the Avenger Servants in the Spiritron Record system are labeled "Link Lost", similar to Musashi but without the finality that her "Data Lost" status meant, meaning that they can still come back one day (indeed, Dantès refers to Abigail Williams as the "key"). The Three Summer Avengers (Kama, Erice and Chloe), the three non-Proper Human History avengers (Maou Nobunaga, Ranmaru X and Space Ishtar) along with Aŋra, Marie Alter and Ushi-Gozen, remain with Chaldea, presumably due to not being "proper" avengers]]

* FlowerMotifs: Her Noble Phantasm: Vae Victis: Tragedy - Black Funeral Procession, has her create a black iris, the inverse of France's signature fleur de lis, that explodes and curses everyone in range if it doesn't instantly kill the victims first. If the fleur de lis is a symbol of France's faith, DivineRightOfKings, and hope for the future, Marie Alter's black lily is the despair of the defeated and disdain born of hatred and loss.

* SingleTear: She sheds a single tear of dark blood while using her Noble Phantasm.

* ButNowIMustGo: [[spoiler:During Ordeal Call 2, it's revealed that the Avenger class is being mass summoned inside CHALDEAS to fight it due to their role of weeping injustices, so all the Avengers leave Chaldea to fight in the Foreign World in the meantime while the "key" (mentioned to be Abigail) solves that. In-game this is represented by most of the Avenger Servants in the Spiritron Record system turning into "Lost Links", similar to Musashi, but without the finality that means "Data Lost", meaning that they can still come back one day. The Three Summer Avengers (Kama, Erice and Chole), the three non-Proper Human History avengers (Maou Nobunaga, Ranmaru X and Space Ishtar) along with Aŋra, Marie Alter and Ushi-Gozen, remain with Chaldea due to not being "Proper" avengers]]

* EvilCostumeSwitch: This spiteful, cynical version of Marie trades her Rider version's rosy pinks and silken white dress for black, red, and gold to illustrate her anger and sadness.

* DramaticIrony: [[spoiler: He's the First Avenger Servant and the origin of the entire Class. But he isn't counted as a ''real'' Avenger, a revealed by Ordeal Call II.]]

* BattleBallgown: Marie's Third Ascension decks her out in an opulent black ballgown and a cape bearing the fleur de lis on her back.

* ButNowIMustGo: [[spoiler:During Ordeal Call 2, it's revealed that the Avenger class is being mass summoned inside CHALDEAS to fight it. Not only that, Chaldea loses the Ordeal Call, so Avengers aren't allowed to pass through the barrier in any other way, so all the Avengers leave Chaldea to fight in the Foreign World in the meantime while the "key" (mentioned to be Abigail) solves that. In-game this is represented by most of the Avenger Servants in the Spiritron Record system turning into "Lost Links", similar to Musashi, but without the finality that means "Data Lost", meaning that they can still come back one day.

** Gorgon is a story-locked SR/4*--and is probably one of three Avengers you can conceivably use on most days... even if she came after the seventh Order. Salieri is a similar case, albeit as a R/3* he's much easier to get... but he's only available after completing first Lostbelt of the ''second'' storyline. He is, however, easy to get in Class-based Rate-Ups since he is only one of two 3* Extra-class Servants.
