History: Ilya initially appears as an enemy to Shirō Emiya. The reason she is after him was because his step father, Kiritsugu Emiya, was a Master working for her family in the previous War and he betrayed them by destroying the Holy Grail.
She is in reality a Homunculus, an artificial human given life by applying sorcery to sperm cells, originally created and raised by the Einzberns. She is actually slightly older than Shirō, her childlike appearance being a result of a distorted growth rate. During the Heaven's Feel scenario, it is hinted that the sperm used to create her was donated by Kitsurugu Emiya, making her his biological daughter and Shirō's step-sister.
The Einzbern, one of three families of sorcerers involved in the Holy Grail War (the others being the Tōsaka and the Makiri/Matō), were responsible for creation of the vessel which the souls of the defeated Servants would go into, while the Makiri created the system of Masters and Servants and the Tōsaka supplied the land which became Fuyuki City. As such, Ilya was prepared by her family to act as a living vessel for the Grail.
