"Master, we've never truly introduced ourselves properly, did we? I am Saber no longer, but-hmm... I see. For the time being, call me MICHAEL."

An existence that is the Archangel Michael, yet isn't. Because of his nature as a non-human entity, Michael is forced to rely on a "human vessel" to bypass the Servant summoning system. However, with Michael being merely a vehicle of Authority than an actual Divine Spirit, the fusion is imperfect. As a result, Saber is a gestalt of the 14th Century knight and the First Archangel. That said, the Servant's sense of honor hasn't diminished a single bit...

Class Skills (Redux):
Magic Resistance - A
Grants protection against magical effects. Differing from the developed resistance that merely rejects magical energy, this Skill cancels the spells altogether.
Cancel spells of A-Rank or below, no matter what High-Thaumaturgy it is. In practice, the Servant is untouchable to modern magi, so it would not be an exaggeration to title the Servant a
'Magus Killer.' Known as the one who felled Lucifer in both sorcery and might, Saber has a natural resistance to all but the strongest of spells.
Due to the circumstances of Saber's summoning, the ranking of the Skill is restricted to A-rank.
"Useless, your foul sorceries will never lay even a scratch upon my person!"

Riding - (-)
The ability to ride mounts. While this Skill covers all beasts and vehicles, dragons are en exception.
Saber has no need for mounts, for God has provided him and other angels with majestic wings. Capable to covering leagues for short amounts of time, those limbs work just as well as any other vehicles. However, as he is unable to use them during Spirit Form he is severely limited outside of combat.
"...Sorry Master. To the subway station, then."
Personal Skills (Redux):
Angelic Divine Core - B
A Skill that expresses one being a perfected angel from birth. A composite Skill that comprises the Skill
Divinity, preserves the absoluteness of the mind and the body, repels all mental interference, prevents the body from growth and prevents the figure from change no matter how much calories are absorbed. As angels are simply the vehicles for a higher being’s power, the rank of this Skill is half that of the divine presence in question it draws power from. Unlike the Skill’s Goddess counterpart, rank can be influenced by an angel’s nature, such as being a Fallen or Guardian Angel.
Normally, Saber would've possessed this Skill at A-rank; for he is the First of the Archangels, God's Vengeance, Defender of Israel and so on. He was also responsible for defeating Lucifer, whom was considered second to God himself. But due to the state he is summoned in, it only manifests at a lower rank.
---
Likeness to God - C+
The origin of Saber's "Authority," the permission to command over the Heavenly Host. Derived from his hebrew name מִיכָאֵל, "
Who is Like God?" Aside from being a rhetorical question, this is also interpreted as Saber being the "Face" of the Lord -- one who issues His commands.
Manifesting as a supernatural charm, Saber is able to induce entire hosts into a perpetual state of fearless confidence. Invoking this Skill along with the Gematria equations in his wings, he can "broadcast" his voice to his allies. At this rank, Saber's inspiring words allows his allies to perform 40% better than they usually do. When used upon Servants of the faith, the effects are strengthened even further. Taking command of the Heavenly armies, Saber crushed Lucifer and his followers. It was even said that his name alone was used as the angels' warcries.
"We shall cast them down, for they defy the Lord's decrees!"

Mana Burst (Storm) - A
The capability to store magical energy that imparts a magical effect similar to wind and electricity. At this rank, a barrage of wind and lightning can be conjured with a flap of Saber's wings. Should Saber feels appropriate, he is capable of infusing his weapon with said elemental effects.
A Skill that came from an Islamic anecdote, where God had granted Saber dominion over rain, snow, thunder, lightning, wind and clouds. Along with an entourage of angelic helpers, he has the knowledge whenever to send rain or snow without effort. Only when they are "truly needed," does the effects of this Skill display its full power. On another note, Saber's Islamic name, Mīkā'īl, can be interpreted as "
Rain."
"Be swept apart by the divine maelstrom- Hm!? A-ah, Master, it seems you've caught me reciting. ...I-If you don't mind, I will take my leave now..."
Noble Phantasm (Redux):
Solis
May the Light Cleanse Through All Corruption
Anti-Army
Rank: B
"Flaming vigilance, vivid strength. Wrought in fire, I cast all evils away. With this, I shall shine a light upon the endless night! Burning bright, Solis!"
Saber's sword of fire, one that was by his side from the beginning. A Divine Construct from a distant past, this weapon was considered to have cast Lucifer out from Heaven and used to ward Adam and Eve away from the Perfect Paradise. The flames glow in a reddish-orange hue, similar to that of dawn; for it is his duty to ensure mankind lives to see another day. In spite of its existence, it never possessed a real name of its own. To make up for it, Saber gave an impromptu name at the cost of a lower ranking.
Once its "True Name" is uttered,
Solis will disperse into particles of light. Soon, the light envelops Saber turning him into a miniature sun. With the Noble Phantasm's concept of "weapon" imbued within Saber, he is now capable of causing great damage via collision. Anything in contact of Saber will be cut, along with a severe burn. As this light smites all evils, it deals additional damage to enemies of demonic origins or Evil alignment. Combined with his flight ability, Saber is essentially a soaring kill zone. A special move Saber can execute is to channel his power into a sword-shaped bolt, with its impact capable of razing one or two city blocks. Based upon the Book of Revelations, it is said Saber personally threw Lucifer down to the earth.
However, the use of this Noble Phantasm will prohibit the use of his sword, meaning Saber is forced to close in onto his opponents if he were use
Solis effectively.
