Background / History
Mash has lived at Chaldea since birth and was created as a human-Heroic Spirit fusion. Her condition has remained a major concern for Chaldea, even after she lost Galahad's power. 207 360
When Li Ye first encounters Chaldea's team in Camelot, Mash immediately treats him as a threat. His Dragon-like magical aura causes the Heroic Spirit within her to recoil instinctively, and she attacks first with her shield. 82
At that point, Mash recognizes that she has not yet matured enough to release Galahad's full power. Even so, she repeatedly places herself between danger and her companions—including Li Ye, despite their hostile first meeting. 85 88
Her confrontation with Lancelot becomes a turning point. After Galahad's identity is revealed, Mash's armor transforms; she identifies Lancelot as her father and defeats him in battle. 112
Appearance
Mash is a young woman who typically fights with an oversized snowflake-patterned greatshield associated with the Round Table. Her combat attire changes depending on the state of her Spirit Core. 82 112 434
- Carries the massive Snowflake Greatshield / Round Table, which she can wield, throw, and use as a summoning circle. 82 115 487
- Her awakened Galahad state manifests as transformed armor. 112
- Her Autonoë exoskeleton is a modernized armored suit fitted with rectangular goggles. 434
Personality
Mash is fundamentally compassionate and protective. She instinctively shelters Ritsuka from danger, fights to protect refugees, and even defends Li Ye against Nitocris's Noble Phantasm after he had previously overpowered her. 86 88 100
She is capable of intense anger when confronted with cruelty. Lancelot's actions against refugees provoke her into demanding that he answer for his conduct as a Knight of the Round Table. 112
Her later experiences make her more willing to voice her own feelings. She regrets failing to understand the members of Group A while they were together and seeks to learn what their shared time meant. 478
Abilities & Skills
Galahad's Spirit Core
Mash houses the Heroic Spirit Galahad, whose identity is tied to her shield and the Round Table.
- Initially, Galahad's power is inaccessible at full capacity. 85
- Naming Galahad allows Mash to transform her armor and release substantially greater strength. 112
- Galahad's power is later lost, forcing Mash to rely on alternate equipment. 347
Simulated Deployment / Foundation of Human Order
Mash's defensive Noble Phantasm creates a radiant wall of light through her shield.
- It blocks the tide of undead released by Nitocris's Mirror of the Netherworld. 88
- Ritsuka can reinforce its effectiveness with a Command Spell. 88
- Its power is described as sharing the same nature as Galahad's Lord Camelot. 145
Shield Combat and Galahad's Martial Arts
Mash combines defensive shieldwork with close-quarters strikes.
- Uses the greatshield to shield Ritsuka from incoming attacks and force open enemy lines. 86 100
- Can abandon the shield momentarily to launch powerful kicks and bare-handed attacks. 82 461
- Her martial skill, inherited from Galahad, allows her to hold back Skuld and three Fire Giants while Ritsuka completes a summoning. 479
- She can throw the Round Table with enough force to breach the Hall of Flames and awaken Brunhilde. 487

The Round Table can function as a complete summoning circle.

- Leonardo Da Vinci — Chaldea colleague who analyzes Mash's condition and provides the Autonoë exoskeleton. 360 434
