She is known as the Senshi of Silence, and has power over destruction and rebirth. She is especially recognizable for the Silence Glaive she carries, which she may use to bring about the cataclysmic destruction of a world or worlds. However, she has the ability to heal minor wounds in both her civilian and senshi forms. Her uniform is fairly unique, with petal-shaped sleeves and a star brooch (resembling the "Pure Heart Crystals" that appear in the third story arc). Its colors are purple and maroon, and she wears knee-high, laced up boots. In the manga, Sailor Saturn did not live among the other Senshi in the Silver Millennium. In fact, her coming had always been prevented by the Outer Senshi, as it was thought that allowing her to come into existence would mean the destruction of their worlds. The Outer Senshi in the Silver Millennium were not supposed to be reborn. But they gathered together because of the destruction of the Silver Millennium, summoning Saturn and awaking her from her sleep. She then killed the remnants of the Silver Millennium and they were reborn on Earth. In the anime, all of the Senshi (including Saturn) had lives on the Moon Kingdom and their represented planets, and were all reborn with Princess Serenity and her court. http://yukinyan.net/cg_english/001113.php http://yukinyan.net/cg_english/001113.php Sailor Moon Mon, 18 Dec 2006 00:11:09 +0900 Taiga Fujimura : Taiga is an English teacher at Shirō's school, homeroom instructor of Shirō's class and the supervising teacher for the Archery Dojo. She is widely called "Tiger", a nickname she dislikes ("Taiga" and "Tiger" are homophones in Japanese), though Shirou refers to her as "Fuji-nee" (older sister Fuji). After Kiritsugu died, Taiga became Shirō's guardian and has been living with him for several years. Taiga and Shirō are very close, and she regards him as a younger brother. Illyasviel von Einzbern: A young Teutonic aristocrat, she traveled to Japan to participate in the Holy Grail War as a Master. Illyasviel has an angelic appearance and an unsurpassed degree of magical power. She lives in a castle on the outskirts of Fuyuki City, accompanied only by her Servant and two maids. Illyasviel asks those she feels comfortable around to simply call her "Ilya". http://yukinyan.net/cg_english/001181.php http://yukinyan.net/cg_english/001181.php Sat, 02 Sep 2006 13:51:01 +0900 Sailor Pluto appears in just a few TV episodes, and observations show that she really has only one true attack, "Dead Scream"; unlike the other Senshi's attack phases, "Dead Scream" is whispered rather than shouted (in the English dub it is known as "Pluto Deadly Scream", and it is yelled out like the others). Like all the Senshi of the Outer Edge of the Solar System, Sailor Pluto wields a weapon, a long key-shaped staff with a garnet jewel at its top, called her Garnet Rod, through which she focuses her power. The jewel that rests on top of the Garnet Rod (the Garnet Orb) is the third mystic talisman that forms the Holy Grail. Pluto's staff helps her control time as well as activate her attack, and is the key to the gates of time (along with the set she carries around her waist); the Garnet Rod always protects those with good hearts. Another power that Sailor Pluto possesses is the ability to stop time, though it has been forbidden due to its potential for negative consequences. However, like the other rules set upon her position (never to leave the time gate and never use it to transport others), it was broken. While Sailor Neptune and Sailor Uranus are in the front compartment of a helicopter going to the "Mugen Gakuen" establishment, the daimons that have surrounded the school attack the helicopter, immobilizing its rotors. As the helicopter was almost about to explode, Sailor Pluto used her time stopping power to save the other passengers. While Neptune and Uranus were safely teleported onto the building, Pluto was thrown into a dimensional rift, and did not re-emerge until much later (skipping an entire season in the anime version). It is uncertain if she wound up in the rift due to the nature of the power or as a punishment for using it. According to executive producer Janice Sonski, the final dub name chosen for Pluto, Trista, was chosen on account of the meaning of the name Setsuna. Setsuna can mean moment, but can also be a derivative of 'setsunai' meaning sadness. In the same vein, Trista, which derives from Latin's triste, also means sadness. An early dub by DiC may have rendered her name as Susanna. The packaging of Irwin dolls released in Canada in 1998 called Setsuna by the name Celia.

Her desire to win the Alice Game is the strongest of all the Rozen Maiden, and is primarily driven by her wish to meet "Father". Sadistic, spiteful, and arrogant (all as a result of her spectacular inferiority complex), Suigintou has no inhibitions in the Alice Game. She will use any method possible, regardless of how cruel they are, to win. She has a particular dislike of Shinku, her rival, and can approximate how many hours and minutes it has been since they last fought. In the first season, Suigintou's emotions and will are so enduring that she can move and fight without the spiritual aid of a medium. She is against the use of one not only because of her strong sense of independence, but also due to her disdain towards humanity. Along with her artificial spirit, Meimei, Suigintou's weapons are her ragged black wings. With their feathers, she can conjure up two dragons as well as a large sword. Her wings also serve as shields when necessary. Suigintou can also utilize destructive blue flames in battle, and this seems to be her most vicious attack. She is the first doll to be created in both the anime and manga, and as such, has unique physical imperfections. In the anime, she is missing a torso; Shinku explains at one point that before Suigintou was completed, her design was erased, but gives no further explanation as to why or how. Curiously, after Suigintou is destroyed in battle by Shinku, she is restored mid-way through Traumend. It is unknown by whom she is restored or whether or not she has been given a torso, but in the Traumend finale, Rozen is seen lovingly tying the ribbon at her neck. Rozen has told Suigintou that even with her flawed body, she still has an opportunity to become Alice. In the manga, her wings (notably, she is the only Rozen Maiden with them) have ravaged her back with cracks. These imperfections have caused some to call her "Junk", and much of her life revolves around demonstrating that this is not the case. However, upon meeting Megu, her attitude and motivations are beginning to shift. Suigintou is slowly beginning to show affection, and even hopes to use the other doll's Rosa Mysticae to heal Megu of her heart ailment.
