厳密には、『最後のファラオ』はクレオパトラが最後の数年間に共同統治者として選んだ我が子カエサリオンと なる。クレオパトラの死後、少なくとも数日はカエサリオンが長く生きたためである。
だが命を落とした折のカエサリオンは僅か9歳。国を統べ、運命と戦った事実上の『最後のファラオ』はクレオ パトラであろう。
公（おおやけ）の場では女王として高慢に振る舞うが、クレオパトラ個人となるとその破天荒ぶりは控えめにな り、育ちがよく思慮深い、クールなお嬢様となる。
属性を一言でいうと高飛車ドＳ親切。
加虐趣味なのに親切。ドＳ、加虐趣味ではあるが、他人を苛む事で快感を得ている訳ではない。
自分が気持ちよくなるために他人を罵倒しているのではなく、単にそういう性格なだけである。
女王として振る舞うが、根は礼節を弁え、周囲に気を配り、和を保とうとする人格者。
他国の使節団たちがやってきた時も、まず彼らを罵倒するがその健康を気遣い、
「妾の国では妾こそ絶対の基準、
醜いものは誰であれ奴隷と変わりはない。
フッ、覚悟する事ね下等あるいは低質のブ男たち！
ここで思う存分くつろいでいきなさい！」
などと、最上級のもてなしで使節団を労うのが常。
そのせいかクレオパトラに罵られる為に謁見を求める使節団が後を絶たなかったとか。
クレオパトラは生涯で二人の男に寄り添った。
第一に、カエサル。彼に対しては明確なまでに恋に落ちた。その情熱と想いのさまは、地中海をそよぐ風さえも が煌めいて見えるほどだったが……
彼は死んだ。地中海世界の統一を目前にしながら、暗殺されてしまった。息子カエサリオンを残し て。
そうして涙に暮れるクレオパトラの前に訪れた人物があった。クレオパトラとプトレマイオス朝エジプトを守る と告げた男、ローマの将軍アントニウスである。
自らの国と民、そして二人の男───ローマのカエサルとアントニウスを愛し、最後は自死した。
二人の男に寄り添い、彼女は死んだ。
恋だった。想いの果てだった。打算の産物などであるものか。───けれど、後世はおろか当時でさえ「魔性の 女がローマの将軍たちを誘惑した」と口々に囁かれ、結果として、英霊となった後にサーヴァントとして現界し た当世では「魔性の美貌を有する誘惑の女」としての存在を得た。
それでも、矜持として───
寄り添うのは、素敵な殿方のみ。
共に死しても惜しくないと信じられる誠実な内面を有した人物、かつて自分が愛した男たちのような相手のみ、 見事、誘惑してみせよう。
Cleopatra
The tragic queen who carved her beauty in history, Cleopatra VII.
The last queen of Ptolemaic Egypt and, in practice, the last pharaoh of Ancient Egypt.
In many literary works, she is told as a bewitching beauty who indulged in love and misappropriated her country, but the truth is the exact opposite.
She is highly intelligent, being specially gifted in financial handiness. Under the command of this top lady, the militarily inferior Ptolemaic Egypt grew into one of the greatest economic powers in the world.
In public, she would behave arrogantly as a queen; but regarding her own personal matters, Cleopatra restrains her eccentric attitude and becomes a well-raised, prudent and cool high-class young woman.
In simple terms, her attribute would be high-handed, sadistic kindness.
Despite having sadistic tastes, she is kind. Although she is an extreme sadist, this does not mean that she gains pleasure at tormenting others.
She does not disparage others in other to feel good herself, but rather she just have that sort of character.
While she behaves as a queen, her true nature is that of a honorable person who understand decorum, pays attention to her surroundings and attempts to preserve harmony.
When foreign delegations arrived, her usual practice would be to disparage at them with words such as:
“In my country, I myself am the absolute standard, and those unattractive are no different from slaves - no matter who they might be.
Heh, better prepare yourselves, you inferior or substandard fouls!
You can relax to your hearts’ content here!”
All while, at the same time, being concerned with the delegates’ health and rewarding them with the greatest hospitality.
Maybe because of that, countless were the delegates who requested audiences just to be disparaged by Cleopatra, or something.
In her lifetime, Cleopatra got close to two men.
One was Caesar. She fell in love with him in a manner that couldn’t be more clear. Such passion and state of mind made even the winds that stirred the Mediterranean Sea look dazzling, but...
He died. Despite the unification of the Mediterranean world laying right before his eyes, he ended up being assassinated. Leaving behind their son Caesarion.
And then, there was one person who appeared before Cleopatra as she was lost in tears. A man who announced he would protect Cleopatra and the Ptolemaic Egypt: the Roman general Antonius.
After having loved her country and people, as well as two men - Caesar and Antonius of Rome - in the end, she committed suicide.
She got close to two men, and died.
It was love. The result of her feelings. As if it could have been the product of self-interest or the likes!--- However, let alone in later generations, there were unanimous rumors about how “that devilish woman seduced the Roman generals” even in her own time. As a result, upon becoming a heroic spirit, she acquired an existence as a “seducing woman endowed with devilish beauty” in this present-day in which she manifested as a Servant.
Even still, as her dignity---
She only gets close to wonderful gentlemen.
A person possessing a sincere nature and, just like the two men she once fell in love with, whom she can believe would not regret dying together with her; only such a person may utterly seduce her.

Strictly speaking, the “last pharaoh” would be her child Caesarion, who Cleopatra had chosen as a joint governor in her last years. After all, Caesarion outlived Cleopatra for at least a few days.
However, Caesarion only had 9 years-old when he lost his life. Thus, the
de facto “last pharaoh” - who ruled the country and fought against fate - was Cleopatra.
