Artoria married Guinevere, but only out of obligation to have a wife. The truth was that Lancelot, one of Artoria's closest friends, and Guinevere loved each other; and because Artoria had hidden her gender, Guinevere had to bear the burden her whole life. Guinevere felt guilt for her actions, but felt relief that Lancelot had fallen in love with her. He, who shared the same ideals as the king, would share the burden with her and would not cause the country to fall into a dangerous situation. Lancelot did so, supporting Guinevere and the king from the shadows in their wicked path. Artoria needed to act as the king's son, since the one who was to govern the vast territories and control the knights had to be male. While some people suspected her, only her father, Merlin, and Kay knew about her true identity. Artoria literally covered herself in steel to hide that truth throughout her life, and due to her immortality through sorcery, no one questioned her small body or her girlish face.[11]

Artoria has the appearance of a young woman in her adolescence, with a slender build and soft, white skin. She has golden hair of "fine texture" that seems "to have been sprinkled with gold dust." Her face shows some signs of naiveté and elegance. Artoria assumes she is more muscular with a body too different from someone like Rin, leading her to believe her body is unattractive; however, Shirou believes she is very feminine, in obvious terms, possessing a slender build. Artoria usually wears armor with an old-fashioned dress, made of antiquated blue fabric, underneath. She is actually older than her appearance suggests, as her body stopped aging from the moment she pulled Caliburn from the stone until her death.

Artoria doesn't like being treated like a woman, or even like a human being, due to her status as a knight.
