Angra Mainyu, (localized as Aŋra Mainiiu in English versions) is the Eighth Servant, belonging to the Avenger class, and a holdover from the Third Holy Grail War. It was once a man living in the 6th century Middle East, chosen to be persecuted and tortured by his people as the incarnation of "All the World's Evil". His peoples' veneration of him as such enabled his soul to become a pseudo-Heroic Spirit upon death. During the Third Holy Grail War, the Einzberns summoned him as a Servant while trying to summon the Zoroastrian God of Evil Aŋra Mainiiu, who they mistook him for. Avenger was slain due to his abysmal weakness, but when his soul was taken into the Greater Grail, it granted the wish of the people who had sacrificed the man and transformed his soul into the incarnation of All the World's Evil. Contained within and corrupting the Greater Grail, Aŋra Mainiiu waits to be reborn so that it can fulfill its own desires: the destruction of humanity.

While it appears in all three routes in the form of a corruptive black ooze, Aŋra Mainiiu's role in Fate/stay Night is greatest in "Heaven's Feel", where it forms a Master-Servant pact with Sakura Matou, manifests through her as the Shadow, corruption|corrupts Saber and Berserker, and ultimately blackens Sakura into Dark Sakura.
