That’s a good idea. Given the evidence, we can likely conclude that Astolfo was T-Summoned with Foreigner Van Gogh. It makes sense that something they drew might have some sort of effect.
GIUSEPPE: "…Miss Van Gogh. Yes, the Foreigner. I remember her well. She was… unstable, but not unkind. But... hmm..."
MUSASHI: "…You're making a real 'schemer' face right now."
GIUSEPPE: "I'm thinking, not 'scheming'. But if you do want to call it that, then this is a 'group scheme'. Allow me to finish thinking this through, and then I'll happily share with the class."
GIUSEPPE: "I can do something with this. With my skills, and my authority as a 'Ruler-class Servant'… I can treat this as an 'Origin'. Which means you could use this as a tool for T-Summoning, or you could use it as a summoning catalyst. Or, you could keep this vaguely cursed item in your possession as is. I would not recommend it, however, considering how you've been reacting to it thus far. I'd either use it now, or leave it with me to pass on to Caster later."
MUSASHI: "I won't say no to extra firepower."
KUKULKAN: "Huh... so that's one of your abilities, Ruler?"
GIUSEPPE: "This isn't a common skill of mine. But I'm familiar with that Foreigner's magical energy. It's extra firepower. There will be some complications, sure, but as long as you don't allow them to become self-aware to their false nature, it should be fine."
GIUSEPPE: "Besides, I'm rather embarrassed. Saber's had a chance to dazzle Their Majesties for the past few days, Invader is constantly shining, and the most I've done is talk. I have to prove my worth as a Servant somehow. I may not be the greatest magus around, but I'd like to try."

SUMMONING 'COUNTERFIETS'.
A 'Counterfeit Hero'- one that doesn't exist for the sake of a greater good, but a replica created for the sake of the 'mission'. In technical terms, the generation of 'synthetic data' created by forging records from the Moon Cell. While on the surface they seem identitcal to their proper selves, aspects of their personalities are 'altered'- perhaps their obsessions are enhanced, their temperaments are a bit more unstable, or there's just a general sense of 'uncanniness' that radiates off their being that registers them as not being proper 'heroes'. Their parameters are also lowered a rank.
You will not possess Command Spells for Counterfeit Heroes.
This action will completely drain RULER's mana.
