Hephaistion, a character appearing in Fate/Grand Order as a Pretender-class Servant, is actually Hephaistion Mnemosyne. She is not the historical Hephaistion, Alexander the Great's beloved friend, but rather his younger sister, a mysterious mage from the Age of Gods. Created as a body double and proxy to protect Alexander, she was never given her own name. She can imitate Alexander’s skills and Noble Phantasms, albeit at a slightly reduced rank. Fused with Chaldea’s Autonomic Observational Existence Verification System, Mnemosyne, she gained unique skills such as “Oblivion Nullification” and “Territory Creation,” appearing as a Pretender. Hephaistion harbors complex feelings for Alexander, both loyalty and hatred, and thus refuses to join him in using his Noble Phantasm. She prefers to be called “Faker” and has unique magical abilities including the “Mystic Eyes of Compulsion” and “Nameless Blessing,” allowing her to control and absorb damage. Skilled with short swords and staffs, she demonstrates great combat prowess and tactical acumen. Her Noble Phantasm, "Hecatic Wheel", summons a bone dragon instead of divine beasts to pull her chariot, although weaker than the original, it can be controlled with magic.
