Civilian Appearance: Tengai is one of those people that can wear anything. She likes lacy tanks, hip hugger jeans and anything silky. She prefers to wear things that are sexy and feminine. Yet these clothes tend to make her look ethereal rather than ‘sensual’ because she does not present herself as such. She is simply comfortable in her own skin, and expects others to see her that same way she does. She always wears white tennis shoes.

Things She Tries to Avoid:  Confrontations, Inzenko, getting boys attention

Her Personality:  Tengai is a quiet version of the genki schoolgirl. She is sweet, upbeat and always ready to smile. She has a soft heart, and wants everyone to be at ease around her. She is shy, and hates confrontations of any kind, but if she feels someone is being badly treated, she will step in.

 

She is very soft-spoken and when she is nervous, may stammer. She blushes easily.

She tends to worry about things not under her control.

 

Tengai will take insults and teasing without retaliation, which some view as weak. She cries easily, but not without reason.

 

She wants people to like her. She wants attention and shies away from it at the same time. This could be because of her family life. 

 

As a Wiccan, she believes that everything has a place, and strictly abides the Wiccan Laws:

Bide the Wiccan Law ye must,
In perfect love and perfect trust.
Eight words the Wiccan rede fulfill:
An'ye harm none, do what ye will.

What ye send forth comes back to thee
So ever mind the law of three.
Follow this with mind and heart,
Merry ye meet, and merry ye part.

Bless’d Be



Present Day History:  (When speaking of her life in America I refer to her as Tawnie, in Japan as Tengai) Tawnie is from San Diego, California. She comes from a middle class upbringing with her 18-year-old sister Maya. Her father works for IBM as a computer programmer.  Their mother and father were often away on business trips to different parts of the US and Japan, leaving them to their own devices.

 

This has polar effects on the two girls. Maya becomes wild, experimenting with drugs and bringing boys home with her at odd hours. Tengai just became more introverted and cleaned up after her sister’s messes, acting more like the older sibling. Maya hates her for this.  More recently, her sister has been coming home scraped, bruised and nastier than ever, shooting her dirty looks whenever possible. This makes Tawnie very uneasy.

 

Tawnie’s father creates an operating system that could bring IBM to the forefront of the industry, and so the family moves to Japan so that he can work more closely with the programmers there.

 

 This drags Tengai into a world totally foreign to anything she knows and loves. She doesn’t speak Japanese at all and is forced to go to a school that has totally foreign customs and rules. She is like a fish out of water, until she finds Tskui. Tskui is the only one who speaks English with practical fluency, and they become very good friends.

 

 

Sailor Miranda

Senshi of Innocence from the Uranian Moon, Miranda

Official Senshi Title:  The Soldier of Innocence

 

Henshin item:  A henshin pen

 

Henshin Phrase:  Miranda Orbital Power… Make up!

 

Powers:  Innocence

 

Innate Abilities:  As a senshi and a civilian, she is an empath. She can sense and feel the way the people around her do. This makes her well able to decide if someone is lying. Scared, sad, shady, etc.

 

Weakest Against: Attacks of a Dark Nature, Physical attacks

Strongest against:  Holy attacks, purity

 

Fuku:  Miranda wears the basic outer moon senshi fuku (modified "super" fuku). Her tiara is gold with a pale green gem.  Her choker is deep green with a pale green star charm.  She wears three earrings in each ear, all of them dark green teardrops. Her cape is deep green with one white stripe. The transparent sleeves are very pale green. The front bow is kelly green with a deep green heart brooch. The body suit is white. Her skirt is kelly green with a thick deep green stripe along the bottom edge. Her gloves are white with kelly green bindings. She wears kelly green flats with spiral ribbons winding up to the knees. (Never understood how senshi could run in heels, all my senshi have flats ^_^)

 

Weapons and items: No weapons

 

Animal Guide: Apollo the cat. Sailor Miranda is the only one of the moon senshi with a guide. She adopted a kitty from the pound before she was awakened, and she named him Apollo. His only relation to the other kitties is the fact that he is from the planet Mau. He is a dark golden brown (like Tengai's eyes) with a green Miranda symbol on his forehead (the symbol of Uranus underscored by a crescent moon). Apollo is not very serious, and his memories of the Silver Millennium are just as limited as the moon senshi's. He is more of a morale booster than a good trainer

 

 

Attacks:

 

Melancholy Kiss:
She closes her eyes, and a glistening tear falls. Miranda opens her hands and cups the tear. Raising her hands to her face, she kisses the tear and a transparent version of herself appears next to the enemy, which then kisses the enemy, and they begin to glow pale green; This attack causes the enemy to fall into slumber until they are destroyed by another. The attack is not restricted, meaning she can do it without the attack sequence if necessary to attack multiple enemies or if her hands are tied.

Innocence block:
Crossing both hands in front of her face, Miranda gathers a sphere of bright green light. She strikes both hands out to her sides and expels the energy as a protective shield for a fallen companion or herself; it defends one companion from one attack, or lessens the blow considerably for the whole group

 

Fighting Styles:  Miranda is not much of a fighter at all. Her senshi powers are very weak. She actually does more good as a human shield.

 

Priestess Hecate of Miranda, orbital satellite of the planet Uranus 

Stepdaughter to Queen Asteria of Miranda

Age at the fall of the Silver Millennium:  24

 

History:

 

Born of King Aldus and one of his concubines, Hecate was never allowed the title of princess. Being not directly of Royal blood, it was not expected of her to become a senshi like her half sister Wren. She was raised to work in the temple as an initiate.

 

She was a calm and quiet soul who always did her work without complaint. She quickly climbed the ranks, and by her fifteenth birthday, became High Priestess. She was a powerful psychic, and took the notice of Queen Serenity when she began to divine the good and evil of those brought before her in the temple. The Queen, on matters of state, often consulted her.

 

She never married, and remained a virgin; she believed that this focused her abilities more keenly. She did, however fall in love with the boy Eliander. But he died in her 20th year.

 

Her sister was sent to become a senshi after The Princess of Pandora broke precedent. Soon though, Wren went missing just after the rumors of Beryl’s army reached the planet Uranus. As a panicked last resort, Miranda sent their priestess to become her replacement to defend their small land from peril. But being not of direct relation to the queen, Hecate’s powers were a poor replacement, and when the Darkness blanketed the land, she fell. Alone. Taking the powers of a senshi destroyed her psychic powers.
