Because Rati is apparently too obscure a figure for TM
Unlike the most popular Norse goddess, Skadi, of course.
Speaking of Scandi gods, we should've gotten Beatrice in the Prisma re-run
Still mad they fused her with Scat.
SMT/Persona reference tho.
Don't play either so it means nothing to me.
Also Rati has no ties to Parvati, unlike Kama.
The profile itsele states that Kama took that body because his connection to Parvati.
I can't believe he'd have fond memories of that event considering it literally got him killed
Literally what does this have to do with anything?Yeah I still remember when Nasu went all out and showed his A game in Last Encore

The Grail cares not for petty things like personal trauma
At least Shiva made him a universal constant afterwards
Kiara wasn't in Last EncoreYeah I still remember when Nasu went all out and showed his A game in Last Encore
Everytime I read that iteration of how Parvati and Shiva fell in love, I keep imagining post-revival Kama getting all grouchy at some Bollywood-esque bar in the background.
Just ask Shirou/EMIYA. Boy, do they have stories to tell.
That must be why they refuse to release Muramusa, he hasn't reached the trauma quota so their wringing it out of his fans.
Spoiler:
I mean, I did it, I did a bronze run of this retardedly RNG-ridden chapter and beat the Nasu-empowered gary stu, but it feels so hollow.
I like how the game doesn't tell you anywhere that he has 100% debuff immunity, so half the bronze roster is just off the table.
I still dont understand why they fuse her with Scat. I know its to make people roll for her, but an original Servant with Quick support skillset is already very tempting, no need to stick a former moneymaker face on her...
sorryAfter defeating Skadi, the Demi-fiend can recruit Skadi as his minion by evolving Scathach by reaching at least Lv. 74 himself and completely mastering Scathach's skillset. Skadi is also capable of learning her distinct attack, Earthquake, which inflicts mega Physical damage upon all enemies, in addition to having the unique property of not being able to miss nor critical hit under any circumstances.
Though abandoned, forgotten, and scorned as out-of-date dolls, they continue to carry out their mission, unchanged from the time they were designed.
Machines do not lose their worth when a newer model appears.
Their worth (life) ends when humans can no longer bear that purity.
If memory serves, the pop culture trend of connecting the two comes from a fringe theory from the 80's that the two are derived from the same origin because they are similar etymologically or something.
"Here's a bangin lil' tune about takin' on The Man!"

How dumb.
Whatever, there's still hope for a cool Norse Caster.
.Rati inhabits a similar vessel to Parvati because she feels she owes her a debt of gratitude for saving her husbandThe Bhagavata Purana narrates that the grief-stricken Rati goes mad by Kama's death and in the Matsya Purana and the Padma Purana versions, she smears herself with her husband's ashes. Further in Bhagavata Purana, Rati undergoes severe penance and pleads with Parvati to intercede with Shiva to restore her husband. Parvati reassures her that Kama would be reborn as Pradyumna, the son of Krishna, the Avatar of the god Vishnu on earth, and Rati should wait for him in the asura Sambara's house.
In other variants, she curses the gods who sent Kama for this doomed mission and the gods, as a group or Brahma, seek relief for the grieving Rati from Shiva or Parvati. In some legends, like the one in the Brahmanda Purana, Parvati revives Kama immediately, hearing the pleading of the wailing Rati and the gods.
The renowned Sanskrit poet Kalidasa dedicates canto IV discussing the plight of Rati in his Kumarasambhava, which focuses on the story of the wedding of Shiva and Parvati and the birth of their son Skanda, who kills Tarakasura. Canto IV narrates that Rati witnesses the death of her husband and laments his death, and then tries to immolate herself on a funeral pyre. A heavenly voice stops her on time, stating that after the marriage of Shiva, he will revive her husband.
The Kedara Khanda chapter of the Skanda Purana presents a very different version. In this version, after the burning of Kama, Parvati is worried that she could not achieve Shiva in absence of Kama. Parvati is consoled by Rati, who asserts that she will revive Kama and starts severe austerities to achieve her goal
bam done and it took me all of five minutes of reading her wikipedia page

So in the end, they don't even have that excuse. Well I'll wait and see what comes of this one, my interest in her/him is completely dead but meh, I thought I'd hate Murasaki and then her 3rd Ascension slapped me in the face
