    Stheno actually didn't lose a lot of her divinity, you're actually thinking of Quetz. Stheno and Euryale are unique among Divine servants in that being summoned as a Servant actually made them STRONGER, not weaker.

    I'm going to freakin' die from mana consumption! But at least I whole-heartedly outclass every other Servant in this war...aside from maybe Yagyu Munenori.

    The Servants participating in this war are:
    • Saber: King Arthur (Prototype)
    • Archer: Tristan
    • Lancer: Li Shuwen
    • Rider: Saint Martha
    • Caster: Nitocris
    • Assassin: Osakabe-hime
    • Berserker: Night of Wallachia
    • Extra class: None

    So, I don't know how familiar you are with TATARI here, but he's basically a living Reality Marble, a living curse. He's a literal urban legend, powered by rumor and fear, and manifests as whatever people expect him to be. In other words, since combatants in a Grail War anticipate fearsome opponents, he will become that. And since his desire is to become the worst possible thing in an area, he will cultivate the rumors and fear to make himself that. You know those Grudge movies? He's that, but smarter.

    And that's my Servant. I think I win.
    I don't know...I think you might have some stiff competition in there actually. While combatants in a Grail War anticipate strong opponents, they also don't tend to be that afraid of them either. Plus between a Knight of the Round Table, Proto Arthur, and Nitocris you have some folks that pack serious danger even against a living Reality Marble but I actually don't think that's your greatest problem.

    I think your greatest problem is that he's being summoned as Berserker (so the smarts part might be in doubt) and that your Servant is a living curse/Dead Apostle somethingoranother in a Grail War with a Saint. I think you'd have to seriously have to work to avoid a direct confrontation with Martha, but at least your Servant won't consume you like me.
