Tokiomi Tohsaka is the father of Rin Tohsaka and Sakura Matou, two of the heroines from Fate/stay night. As a member of the Tohsaka family, he entered the Fourth Holy Grail War as the Master of Archer. Kiritsugu Emiya identifies Tokiomi as the third of the three most threatening magi involved in the war after researching all the Masters involved. He and Risei Kotomine are close acquaintances; through Risei, Tokiomi meets the young Kirei Kotomine, Risei's son, whose command spells have appeared three years prior to the start of the Fourth Holy Grail War. The two men arrange for Kirei to be transferred from the Church into the Magi's Association as Tokiomi's pupil while leaving Kirei uninformed as to the true nature of the marks on his hand. They both intend to use Kirei to make sure that Tokiomi will obtain the Grail and that Kirei's role is to provide Tokiomi with additional Command Spells and another Servant. Like Risei, Tokiomi holds Kirei in high regard in terms of ability and character but has little understanding of how empty the young man feels. He is married to Aoi Tohsaka, the childhood friend of Kariya Matou. Tokiomi leaves his estate in the hands of Rin, whom he intends to be his successor. Though Tokiomi originally hoped to give his daughters a choice as to whether or not to become magi, just as his own father had given him, both Rin and Sakura had unusual amounts of innate ability for magi. Without the protection of a magus family and the training to control their abilities, this potential could cause dangerous supernatural events to befall the girls, or lead to their capture by the Association to use as specimens. As the Tohsaka family's protection and magecraft could only be bestowed upon one child, Tokiomi allowed Zouken Matou to adopt Sakura, as the Matou family had a need for an heir. His sudden decision to give Sakura away comes as a shock to Aoi, though she does not openly oppose his decision.
Fate/Zero
With the promise of granting any wish, the omnipotent Holy Grail triggered three wars in the past, each too cruel and fierce to leave a victor. In spite of that, the wealthy Einzbern family is confident that the Fourth Holy Grail War will be different; namely, with a vessel of the Holy Grail now in their grasp. Solely for this reason, the much hated "Magus Killer" Kiritsugu Emiya is hired by the Einzberns, with marriage to their only daughter Irisviel as binding contract. Kiritsugu now stands at the center of a cutthroat game of survival, facing off against six other participants, each armed with an ancient familiar, and fueled by unique desires and ideals. Accompanied by his own familiar, Saber, the notorious mercenary soon finds his greatest opponent in Kirei Kotomine, a priest who seeks salvation from the emptiness within himself in pursuit of Kiritsugu. Based on the light novel written by Gen Urobuchi, Fate/Zero depicts the events of the Fourth Holy Grail War—10 years prior to Fate/stay night. Witness a battle royale in which no one is guaranteed to survive. [Written by MAL Rewrite]
