1. Archer

   Archer is a fictional character from the Japanese visual novel and anime series Fate/stay night by TYPE-MOON. He is the Servant of one of the series' main heroines, Rin Tōsaka. Archer is sarcastic and cynical. His hardened demeanor is assisted by a complex and dark personality which reveals rare occurrences of compassion and unfolds throughout the story. Though skilled with ranged weapons, he can hold his own in hand-to-hand combat. He considers Shirō Emiya's idealism to be weak and delusional, recognizing Shirō's mentality of "wanting to save everyone" as naïve and impossible. The Japanese voice actor for Archer was Junichi Suwabe, and his English voice was provided by Liam O'Brien.

   Ordinary persons would not have their medical records released after their death.

   A bow has no conscience: it is a prolongation of the hand and desire of the archer. It can serve to kill or to meditate. Therefore, always be clear about your intentions.

Therefore, try to be in harmony with your instrument and never ask more than it can give.
