Biography
A shrewd, powerful, but ancient sorcerer, Zōken is patriarch of the Matō family and is known to be the grandfather of Shinji and Sakura. He has amassed a large and extensive library of sorcerous knowledge, yet his lessons are strict and harsh. Zōken considers Shinji to be a disgrace of a sorcerer, and believes Sakura may have more potential than her brother.
Zōken is a vampire, and actually Shinji's ancestor from two centuries past. He has used a species of magical worms to sustain his long life. Because Matō blood has thinned and no longer produces heirs naturally capable of sorcery, Shinji was incapable of becoming a true sorceror so Zōken offered to adopt Sakura Tōsaka into the Matō when her father, Tokiomi, decided to train only his older daughter, Rin, to become his successor. Sakura was implanted with Zōken's magical worms to prepare her as a vessel in the upcoming Holy Grail War.
After witnessing Rider lose to Saber, and enraged at Shinji's incompetence as a Master, Zōken summons True Assassin from the body of Assassin and becomes a Master in the 5th Holy Grail War. Using Sakura as a vessel for Angra Mainyu, the dark spirit that resides within the Holy Grail, he sets out with True Assassin to eliminate the other Masters and Servants.
Sakura soon gives into her dark side and Zōken loses control over her and his plans to acquire the Holy Grail. He is subsequently killed and exorcised by Kirei Kotomine.
