Fate/stay night

[Aeon]

I thought she was the master for Assassin. I thought the attacks she was using were just basic magic attacks like Rin used in the school. So I guess this means that Shirou and Rin aren't the only masters working togather. Now I wonder who the person in the trees was that was spying on Saber.

[Munsu]

Yep, that was why I thought also... I remember the chick saying, "Isn't your master clever, making you attack me while my servant is busy" or something along those lines.

So I think that person you called Caster is a master, not a servant.

I'm completely confident that Caster is who I said she is. However, my response to your comments is founded on the things that Shirou's friend said about the temple where he lives. That there was a new visitor, and she was being treated with an incredible amount of hospitality. It seemed that he disapproved of the extravagant way she was being treated, as if she was a temptress. This is the key to my theory.

I believe that Caster has beguiled whoever is Assassin's master on the orders or her own master, and thus, Caster is now controlling Assassin through his own master, who is probably as ignorant as Shirou in the ways of being a magician. In effect, whoever Caster's master is now has control of two servants.

I was thinking along the same lines. I thought that character was saying that your master is very clever. He is playing dirty tricks. There was a barrier around the temple and only there was one way in, which was guarded by the Assassin. Rider’s master Shinji told Shiro about the witch and he knew that Shiro being kind hearted would go to stop that witch. This would provide him with the opportunity to kill the master. Killing master would be easier than killing his servant (Assassin). So Rider was waiting for that opening. Although Assassin’s master shown sitting on the seat in the temple and the character fighting outside with Rider looked different.

She is not a master, she is Caster.

-Caster says "Your master is very impressive. Using Saber as a decoy to sneak into my area of control." [Eclipse] 9:33. That means that Saber was the one distracting both of the servants while Rider snuck in to attack the area inside the barrier Caster created/controls. Also, the language used, "Your Master" seems to imply that they are on the same level, both serving a master. Caster comparing her master to Riders.

-Caster's class is radically different from the servants we've seen so far. Berserker, Lancer, Archer, Saber, and Assassin all use physical means to destroy their enemies. Rider is fairly different in that she uses sneak attacks and the normally invisible spikes and chains. Caster's title implies that she would be using magic or some other spells, which is exactly what she used to repel Rider. Summons and spells.

-Finally, I'll be really cheap if those do not convince you. Check the credits. 22:39 on Eclipse's version. 田中敦子 as キャスター "Atsuko Tanaka as Caster." She also voices Motoko Kusanagi from GitS:SAC. You can tell from her voice they are the same person.

You may be right. I just thought of it now. Why would a master be fighting a servant on his own? Only Shiro is stupid enough to do that.

The only master to go up against Heracles b/c he doesn't want his girl servant to get hurt....
