Wiki on Gilles de Rais (historical figure)
[Personality]
Gilles was once a distinguished nobleman and a brave General of the Royal Arms. He fought alongside Jeanne D'Arc for many years, and rose to glory as a hero of France. However, that man is no more. He slowly slipped into insanity after funding failed attempts to summon a demon and causing the deaths of hundreds of children as sacrifice.
He was captured by the Church and executed in 1440. However, one young serial killer's ambition to summon a demon brought him back as a servant in the Fourth Holy Grail War. Due to Ryuunosuke's mistakes in the summoning ritual, Gilles was wrongfully placed into the Caster class despite having never actually practiced magecraft while he was alive.
Either way, this Master/Servant match is a match made in Heaven. Or, perhaps, a match made in Hell would be more accurate. Like his Master, Caster lacks morality and enjoys killing. He likes to give his victims -- all children, similar to his practices while he was alive -- a brief momentary hope of release before going in for the kill. He explains to Ryuunosuke that there "is a certain freshness in fear" and that allowing his victims hope, it greatly amplifies their terror when finally faced with death. He uses his magecraft abilities to aid his Master in the torturing of his victims, such as keeping a human alive such that Ryuunosuke can use her organs as a musical instrument.
After seeing Saber, Caster becomes convinced that Saber is in fact Jeanne D'Arc, and that his true wish of her becoming resurrected had been answered. He immediately becomes obsessed with her, and is saddened when she reveals to him that she is not the woman he thinks she is. He does not believe her, however, and comes to the conclusion that she is simply confused and has not awaken to the truth. He takes it upon himself to force her to realize what he's convinced is the truth.
Caster believes that the reason Jeanne does not come to realize who she is, is because she is still stupidly believing in God and His protection. He has different views on God, however, and believes that God has no power of punishment. After all, he'd murdered and defiled hundreds of children during his lifetime and committed what he admits were the most vile things a man could do, and God allowed him to carry on. In the end, it wasn't God who ended him, but humans. Caster doesn't see his death as a punishment from God, but rather simply as robbery. He believes that he was sentenced and executed because the Church and the King desired his wealth. However, after speaking to Ryuunosuke, Caster has now become convinced that God is simply the writer of the story of the world, and that his role in this story is as an entertainer of sorts. He is pleased with this idea of a new religion based on the fact that murders like himself and Ryuunosuke are simply taking on unpleasant duties to earn a few smiles.
At this point, it is probably silly to even mention that Caster is, indeed, insane. After all, all evidence up until now has pointed toward that. However, despite his obvious insanity, Caster is not stupid. He still keeps many of the traits that he once held as a noble soldier of war. He displays the same bravery, being unafraid of a battle with both Lancer and Saber, but this can also be his downfall, seeing that he's so unafraid to go into battle with two other servants who are obviously stronger than he is. On the bright side, Caster does understand his limits, and he knows when to retreat when he needs to. He also displays twisted cunning, playing and toying with his victims (allowing them the slight hope of release) before he kills them and offers them up as sacrifice for his magecraft. He is able to formulate strategies, such as when he used children to lure Saber into a battle. He displays great physical strength uncommon to those usually placed in the Caster class (being able to crush a young boy's skill with his bare hand) which may also be due to his history as a knight.
One last thing to note about Caster is the fact that his emotions tend to change on a whim. He can go from laughing insanely one moment to weeping the immediate moment after. He does not bother to hide his emotions, preferring to be completely open with them. (Or perhaps, he simply does not have the ability.) He also does not seem to have much depth in emotions, as he tends to switch violently from one extreme to the other.

He will have Prelati's Spellbook with him, and he will be able to enable simple acts as well as summon his demonic amphibious familiars! It's never really specified what kinds of spells he can do or what his limits are, though examples of them are keeping a human alive despite her organs being spilled out onto a table, and brainwashing young children to follow him.
He also seems to have superhuman strength, since he is seen crushing a child's skull with one hand. In canon, he had a crystal ball he could use to observe others; he won't have that here, but he'll be using the Dreamberry.
Despite coming from the 1400s originally, Caster gained a great deal of knowledge about the present-day when he was summoned as a servant (as all servants do.) So he does actually understand technology and knows how things work in the present.

[Other Facts]
Gilles, historically, is known to have horribly defiled his victims before killing them. But that's not something I'm interested in playing out ever, so I'm playing him as asexual. There's no material in Fate/Zero that says he did anything sexual to any of his victims, so I'm playing off the assumption that his sex drive just never came with him when Ryuunosuke resurrected him as a servant.
He'll still be torturing his victims. It just won't be sexual.
Also, he seems to prefer referring to himself as "Bluebeard" which is a character from a story that is based off of him.
I'm telling you, he's a horrible person.
