| - Rule Breaker: All Spells Must Be Broken (also known as the Destroyer of All Talismans) is Caster's Noble Phantasm, a weapon that materializes the divinity of the witch of betrayal herself. It is an iridescent and jagged dagger that is thin, brittle, and blunt. It has the combat efficiency of a regular dagger, and it would not be suitable for killing a single person. Its true, actual purpose is that of a key used for rituals that is described by Caster as an "indulgence from the Age of Gods that is forgiven by anything for one purpose." Shirou Emiya feels an ominous feeling every time he sees it, realizing it is dangerous to servants after inadverdently analyzing it, as it manifests as a feeling of pain in the Command Spells on his hand. Its unique ability is that it is the ultimate anti-magic Noble Phantasm capable of dispelling and destroying any kind of thaumaturgy. Upon coming in contact with the ensorcelled item or person, enchantments, connections bounded through contracts, and creatures created and maintained by prana will all be returned to their original components in a state "before they were made." It is a blade of betrayal that will sever all connections between a Master and a Servant by, as its name implies, breaking and therefore destroying every single rule that controls them, giving full control of the Master's Command Spells to Caster. She uses this on Saber and Archer, causing Shirou and Rin Tohsaka's Command Spells to disappear and transfer to Caster after their contracts are nullified. The Servants themselves must be the target, as it actually has no effect on Shirou's contract with Saber after simply stabbing his flesh. It is also capable of severing Angra Mainyu's hold on Sakura Matou that had turned her into Dark Sakura earlier after it is projected by Shirou. There is a limit to what Rule Breaker is able to dispel, meaning artifacts on the rank of Noble Phantasm will never be returned to their original state no matter how low their rank.

Shown by the complex shape of the blade, its actual purpose is that of a key used for rituals that is described by Caster as an "indulgence from the Age of Gods that has forgiven anything for one purpose." Such ceremonial knives are designed as mere decoration, and like those, Rule Breaker was created under the school of thought that it was never to be used as a weapon. Shirou feels an ominous feeling every time he encounters it, realizing it is dangerous to Servants after inadvertently analyzing it, manifesting as a feeling of pain in the Command Spells on his hand. Greatly differing from other Noble Phantasms, the conceptual ritual tool's unique ability is that it is the ultimate anti-magic Noble Phantasm capable of dispelling and destroying any kind of thaumaturgy, an effect suitable to the Noble Phantasm that is a manifestation of Caster’s nature as the “Witch of Betrayal”. It "transgresses" on all the magecraft of the targets it pierces, contracts made from magical energy and life born from magical energy. Once it comes into contact with the ensorcelled item or person, enchantments, connections bounded through contracts, and creatures created and maintained by magical energy, they will all be returned to their original components in a state "before they were made." Contracts will be wiped clean and those with life will immediately cease to exist. There is a limit to what it is able to dispel, meaning artifacts on the rank of Noble Phantasms will never be returned to their original state no matter how low their rank. English | Japanese “I don't really want to use it that often.""Rule Breaker!” —Caster While its uses are limited under normal means, it has high effectiveness in the Holy Grail War due to being able to manipulate the Servant System. It is a blade of betrayal that will sever all connections between a Master and Servant by destroying every single rule that controls them, giving full control of the Master's Command Spells to Caster. She uses this on both Saber and Archer, causing Shirou and Rin's Command Spells to instantly disappear and transfer to Caster after their contracts are nullified. She can also turn the dagger on herself, severing her contract with her Master without establishing a new one in its place. This does not seem to do anything to the Command Spells, as Atrum Galliasta did not lose his after Caster severed their contract this way; however, without a contract, they become vestigial and useless in Galliasta's attempts to force Caster to commit suicide. The Servants themselves must be the target, as it has no effect on Shirou's contract with Saber from simply stabbing his flesh. It is also capable of severing Angra Mainyu's hold on Sakura Matou after it is projected by Shirou.

- Magic A Is Magic A...except when it isn't.

Other times, however, the author is aware, and just doesn't care, or wants the rule to simply not apply to their character, to make him or her more special/cool/powerful, or to facilitate the plot. Sometimes, authors do this with their own canons. This can be a matter of Running the Asylum, or simply a type of Flip-Flop of God. Some fanfiction authors aren't really rule breakers and using a MacGuffin or Red Herring to confuse readers that understand the universe that the Fan Fiction is based in. Fanfic or canon, this will likely get the character in question labeled as a Mary Sue. Examples:
