She wears a hooded bluish-purple robe throughout Fate/stay night, and her appearance remains hidden for most of the story. Since her life was filled with only betrayal, it is said that the princess became a true witch and continued to roam the lands.Ĭaster's appearance is much like a witch that would be seen in a fairy tale. Everyone who attended Jason's wedding was killed except for Jason himself, including King Creon and his daughter Creusa, and Medea's fate after leaving Corinth is unknown. She appeared at Jason's wedding, burning all who attended with her magic. Her actions afterward were those that have truly marked her as a witch. Jason also decided to marry his young daughter over Medea, which led to her exile. She finally found her peaceful rest in this land after her abduction and denouncement, but it didn't last long.Ĭreon took a liking to Jason and decided to have his daughter, Creusa, marry him. They were both chased out of the country, and fled to Corinth where they were welcomed by King Creon. They denounced her as a witch who betrayed her country, killed her brother to save herself, and had now taken the throne by deceit. Jason then became the king afterwards, but the Argonauts did not approve of his conduct, and most of all disapproved of Medea's existence. He willingly gave his body to her, which was then left in pieces and thrown out to sea. She offered to cast the same spell on the King, who was overjoyed at the prospect. They killed his servant in front of him and revived him with her magic to display a spell of immortality. She eventually came up with a plan for Jason, where they invited Pelias to visit and displayed her magic. He made a plot to kill Jason, forcing him to rely on Medea's magic three times to escape the danger.
Upon returning to the safety of his native land, Jason asked for the return of his country as promised, but King Pelias refused. Overcome with grief, the King ordered for the collection of the pieces of his dead son, which allowed the Argo the chance to escape its chasers. While she only knew Jason by name, her love caused her to board his ship, the Argo, and slice her brother into pieces right in front of her pursuing father. Aphrodite once again used Medea to assist Jason's escape by forcing her to kill her brother, Apsyrtus. King Aeëtes was enraged and decided to personally lead his army to capture Jason before he could leave the country. Her abilities allowed her to nullify her father's magic and the enchanted fire-breathing oxygen, which gave Jason the opportunity to obtain the Golden Fleece. Medea was made to blindly love Jason, which resulted in choosing a foreigner over her father and country and therefore betraying them. He was supported by the Goddess Aphrodite, and decided to control Medea's mind to help Jason upon realizing that the King of Colchis was unshakable. Jason argued with King Peleas, the usurper of his father's country Iolcos, and eventually made him promise to return the country upon traveling far eastward to Colchis and returning with the Golden Fleece. Her personality at the time was far from what others would call a witch, and her fate became confounded after the famous hero from the Argo Expedition, Jason, appeared before her.
Her father was King Aeëtes of Colchis who excelled at magic, and as his daughter, she was also practiced in such ways. She was the princess of Colchis who possessed the Golden Fleece. Caster's identity is Medea, an unfortunate princess who was branded as a witch in Greek mythology.
