"And the winner of the Swimsuit Contest as the Beach Queen for this year is... ATHENA-CHAAAAAAAAN!" Blackbeard said while the crowd chanted in delight.
"But I didn't come here in a swimsuit, these are just my regular working togs!" Athena said, accepting the trophy regardless.
Summer Skadi, Ibuki Douji, Queen Medb, Nero, Tamamo, Osakabehime and Jeanne Alter glared at her. Summer Jeanne clapped happily.

Biography:
Not the greek goddess of war who was also named Athena.
A princess of the Kingdom of Victory. Adventurous and with a mischievous streak to her, Athena once looked for thrills and opened the forbidden Door Which Shouldn't Be Opened in the palace of her parents, and she fell into the monster filled world of Fantasy. After defeating the evil king of that world and being hailed a heroine, Athena returned home and opened the Door Which Shouldn't Be Opened B, falling to the world of Elisyum with her maid Helene.
When M. Bison blew the surface of Earth up with an artificial satellite, most of Earth's population went to purgatory. A few fighters, such as Yagami Iori, Mr. Karate, Ken Masters and Akuma, drifted towards the gates of Heaven, where they were repelled by Athena.
Since she failed at keeping several fighters at bay, and on the light of prior misdeeds, Athena was banished to Earth. There she was to foil the schemes of the evil WAREZ corporation, which intended to bring Orochi, the god of destruction, back to Earth with a clone of him, Mizuki. Athena succeeded, but she was told she had to complete atoning by doing more good deeds on Earth, such as helping to restore proper human history.
As a Servant she possessed the body of her descendant and lookalike Asamiya Athena, who is a Japanese idol singing sensation.
Class Skills:
Magic Resistance: A
Cancels spells of A- rank or below, no matter what greater magecraft it is. In practice, the Servant is untouchable to modern magi
Riding: D
She doesn't have a driver's license yet. Usually she would travel on foot.
She can ride some holy phantasmal beasts, but not dragons.
Personal Skills:
Divinity: A
Although Athena is purely a Divine Spirit, the Skill is extremely compatible with her own descendant, giving it a high rank regardless.
Immortal Weapons Mastery: B
Athena is skilled with swords, bows and lances alike, and she also would qualify for the Archer and Lancer classes, but she opted for Saber, as she was told it was the king of Servant classes.
She also employs a shield in combat, but since she is primarily offensive and not defensive she doesn't qualify for the Shielder class.
Charisma: C
Thanks to Asamiya Athena's popularity and presence, Athena inspires others easily, but the rank is lowered since her goddess psyche is very curt at times, and she cannot move on armies or countries like a king could do.
Psycho Power: A
Thanks to Asamiya Athena's inherited gifts, Athena can use limited telekinesis to move small objects around and also short range telepathy, but direct contact with disturbed minds throws her off balance.
She also can use several of Asamiya Athena's Psycho Soldier-fighting attacks, including the Psycho Ball, a powerful energy blast.
Golden Body: A
Asamiya Athena's physique is deemed as sublime by men of all ages who look up at her as an idol. That is fortunate for Athena, since her original body shape was said to be slightly pudgy.
"HEY!"
The weight and curves won't be altered no matter what the intake of calories is.
Noble Phantasm:
Poem of Heaven- A More Innocent Self: B
Anti-Unit.
Athena turns her opponent into a harmless non sapient animal. This only can be done once a day and when the enemy is low on mana, although it doesn't need to be when they are absolutely defeated, unlike how it used to be during Athena's prior campaigns of war on evil. Some of these transformations include:
Darkwing Duck/Archer and Scrooge Mc Duck/Lancer: A non antropomorphic duck wearing a wide wing hat or a top hat respectively.
Shiranui Mai/Assassin: A cow.
Artoria Pendragon/Saber: Saber Lion.
Kagurazaka Asuna/Saber: A tiny boar. Since Asuna has EX ranked Magic Resistance, she snaps back to her human form right afterwards, albeit fully nude.
Fa Mulan/Saber: A tiny Mushu-looking dragon.
Sentinel/Berserker: A wind up tin robot dog.
King Kong/Berserker: A baby gorilla.
Jack the Ripper/Assassin: That hideous furry thing seen in that Craft Essence.
Boudica/Rider: That hideous furry thing seen in that Craft Essence.
Joker/Assassin: A snake identical to his mutant form from the Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated movie, but small and non-sapient.
Superman/Ruler: Krypto the Superdog.
Harley Quinn/Assassin: A hyena.
Heracles/Berserker: A black bear.
Tamamo no Mae/Caster, Tamamo no Mae/Berserker: A fox with nine tails.
Armor of Heaven: C
Self.
By summomning a special suit of armor, Athena will assume the form of a mermaid or a winged angel. They both basically look just like her but with their respective extra features, and while the former provides extraordinary swimming ability and the capacity to breathe through gills, the latter allows for a B ranked Flight skill. They don't augment Athena's combat prowesses, otherwise.
