I can see the character arc now.

Rostam summons one example of noble, pure hearted half naked manservice after another, trying to find the ideal husbando for Medea so she has something to live for, all the while never realizing the obvious truth.

It's just like one of my Japanese animes!
MEANWHILE, AT THE HARGRAVE HOUSEHOLD

"Welcome home, son–"

*Karna and several other almost-naked paragons of handsome masculine development stand behind Rostam, bodies contorted into outlandish poses to better show off their glistening musculature and implausible flexibility*

"–son is there something you need to tell us"
 
"I ask of you; are you to be my Master?" His voice is soft and smooth, his words carefully chosen. As if English were his second language, albeit studied studiously.
Interesting, it seems like he knew English in life rather than getting the standard grail package, I suppose that narrows down his identity a bit.

EDIT: Or maybe he's just the sort who always speak carefully, I'd imagine that being constantly careful and formal is a regular thing for royalty and that's what most of the guesses seem to be leaning towards.

"FATHER IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK! THESE ARE J-"

"We are his servants, duty bound to do what ever he wishes."

*Moment of silence*

"Whatever he wi-"

"FATHER ITS NOT LIKE THAT!"
 
Wait a second.

At the end of Hollow Fake, Tamiko supplanted Avenger, didn't she? Meaning that instead of All of the World's Evil cooking around in the Grail, we get our favourite three-headed dragon.

... Considering her taste in anime, is it really a surprise we get the kind of Servants we do?
 
By the description I think I am thinking the Servant is a martial artist, and the hint that he spoke English as a second language (if not just misdirection) would suggest a 19th or 20th Century personality. Nasu loves to hype how broken Chinese martial arts are, so it may be one of those masters.
 
I will hold out against the cries of waifu, in favor of a hasubando.

This explains everything. It all makes sense now! Thank you, Tamiko! Thank you for this grand harvest of bishi!
 
So one of the ways to increase your ability to defy fate is to develop Bonds and gain higher friendship.
We in Persona now.

I have not read Hollow Fake. But I must say. This Tamiko has good taste.
 
[X] Speak to your new Servant. Try to assess his abilities and identity.

Rostam could be going two for two, and he's summoned another dude from Indian myth.
Tanned by the sun, not naturally. Which I believe implies that he's from one of the fairer skinned Asian countries, but has spent long enough basking in the sunlight that he's now as rich and golden as a twinkie.

Yep. Totally Scotish

He's probably a member of the Glasgow O'Senseis.

Seeing as she showed up during the epilogue of Hollow/Fake, I'm not sure why she would be in the Grail.
 
Oh boy, I'm going to hell. When I saw the scene break on the first part of the last update, I though we missed out on saving Madea due to talking too much. I actually laughted at that.

Also:

First because it would be unpolite with the new guy. Second because Rostam is running on fumes at this point and really needs to get some fucking sleep, chasing around the fur-ball goes against that.

It's not like Four actually want us to follow it, right?

Right?

:V

Me too

I can't lie, it was so deliciously ironic that I miiiight have been disappointed when she turned out to be alive. Maybe. Also gdi guys don't bait the back stabing prematurely via bad treatment!
