So…so, since someone managed to get my muse all Sailor Moon happy, I figured I’d take the time to complete a couple of design sheets I’ve had sitting around for, like, a couple of years. So, yeah, while this seems like this might have been an undertaking, they were all pretty much done around the same time as when the Sailor Aeolus design went up, except the last two. I just had been too lazy to really finish them to be put on deviantArt.

I mean, it wasn’t that much of an undertaking to begin with, seeing as they’re all basically the same design, so it involved a lot of copy/pasting. ;P

The only thing that I did to them for this was change their casual designs from their school uniforms to actual clothes because I had the idea of taking the school angle away and just make the story take place on, say, Aeolus, but I decided that doesn’t work 100% with what I have planned, but still. Maybe they don’t have uniforms?

I also did up the last two recently, but again, it didn’t take that much effort. I just wanted to design the main villain, and then figured I might as well toss in her teammate as well.

Sailor Aeolus/Aeris Anemone/Erin O’Colley – CLEARLY, I didn’t do much to her since the last design other than changing up her civilian outfit like I mentioned. I still love the idea of her hair being magically altered so no one knows she’s actually the princess Aeris (and I like how Aeris and Erin sound close enough that it’d make sense for her to adapt a more common name in hiding), but then the Millennium Crystal negates the magic and reveals the Aeolian royal family is quite alive and well.

Basically, when Aeris was young, her planet was attacked by the previous Sailor Nemesis, who did a hell of a lot of damage before the previous Sailor Aeolus (Aeris’ mother) faced her down. The explosion that ended the fight ended Nemesis, and the common belief was that it ended Aeolus as well. And since her family was nearby, they thought they had all died as well. Aeolus took her family and hide them in order to protect them because of this, and the general idea was that the power of Aeolus was lost.

And yet, no one really thought much about the fact that this girl who was around Aeris’ age shows up at the Academy with the power of Aeolus, go figure. They really just thought the power transferred to her instead of simply being reborn. Erin (Erin being the nickname her commoner father gave her when she was born) is actually unremarkable as far as students are concerned – she’s a model student, sure, but she’s honestly just another face in the crowd to most people. At least until it’s discovered she’s the lost princess of Aeolus. For some odd reason, despite just having the power of Wind, Aeolus is considered extremely powerful and people want her power. Doubly so with the Millennium Crystal.

Sailor Gaios/Terra Fitz – I think it’s funny how this character is now required to be dark skinned, no matter what form it is. ;P I like her eyeliner, and I have no idea why I gave it to her, lol.

So Terra is Erin’s best friend/roommate. They started at the Academy at the same time, and have been together ever since. Terra actually comes from a species that’s, like, 75% women, which, of course, changed the gender dynamic. Since there’s so few men, no one really settles down with them because they need to be available to, you know, continue the species and all that. Most couples are lesbian, obviously.

Terra comes from a different sort of family. Her parents settles together, and even had another child. Full blooded siblings are highly unusual. As such, Terra’s upbringing was different than most of her people, and while she’s definitely a tomboy, she’s not exactly one-of-the-guys, either. Mostly, this is important just because the previous Gaius was her aunt rather than her mother. Her aunt never had any children, which is why the power went to her instead.

Terra is fiercely loyal to Erin, and people always think she has a crush on the redhead, but they’re really just BFFs. Due to her tomboy nature, Terra is very hands on with combat, and is a bit of a tank in the group.

Aegir/Nereus Knight/Seamus Triteia/Patrick McHaley – Yeah, he’s got a lot of names. >.< But I guess it makes sense considering it’s the only male and he’s a villain hiding amongst the heroes. Sorta.

So before the attack on Aeolus, there was an uprising on Nereus that ended up displacing the Nereis royal family on Aeolus. Seamus and Aeris basically grew up together because of this, resulting in them becoming super close. However, when Aeolus was attacked, Seamus was captured and brought to the evil people in order to be brainwashed into helping them.

A little spoiler alert, but the brainwashing actually didn’t take full effect. He just sort of acts like it did because it makes his life a little easier. He developed a dark form of his power and took on the name Aegir, and fights alongside the villains for a while. However, they decided to have him infiltrate the Academy, and he took on the alias Patrick McHaley. (Due to the fact that Nereids don’t believe in marriage, no one actually knows who Seamus’ father actually is, except for Seamus and his mother, so he adapts his father’s surname as his alias.)

While at the Academy, he ends up becoming really close with Erin (of course), and decides to join her even before it’s revealed that she is actually his first love. When he gains his own Millennium Crystal, it wipes away the evil form and reveals him to be Nereus Knight. Except, like I said, he was never evil to begin with, so…yeah.

Sailor Helios/Angelia De Helios – I really could have given her a more ‘alien’ form, but I figured I needed to separate her from Aerona, sadly.

Sadly, I don’t have that much on the last members of the team. She’s bubbly and happy and optimistic. The only bit of drama she has going for her is the fact that her sister disappeared some time ago, and she’s been searching for her off and on when she can.

Sailor Aethos/Sunny Colours – I really love Sunny’s design. I think it’s funny I took the Iris name from her, but still gave her the rainbow hair, go figure. But hey, she’s a soldier of light, and like refracts and it still totally works! I really like her civilian outfit. While it was stolen from someone else, I might have to find a use for it elsewhere…well, in this form, to be precise. ^^;

Sunny probably has the most normal life. Her sister doesn’t care for her very much, but otherwise, no much has happened in her life other than her becoming Sailor Aethos. She enjoys being the guardian of her planet, and I believe her claim to fame is the fact that she’s the first to get a Millennium Crystal.

Sailor Erebus/Melody Draga- Melody is Erin’s cousin through her mother/Erin’s father. Which is impressive, since her father is, like, 1000 years old. Basically, her parents met because Seren has business on Aeolus, and Amelia was visiting her brother, and sort of caught the eye of Seren briefly. They had a bit of fun which resulted in Amelia becoming pregnant and Seren bringing her back to Erebus with him.

Except she was one of many concubines/wives. Melody was raised sort of separated from the rest of her half-siblings, although her father did care for her. But she was a Halfling and the child of a commoner, so she was looked down upon. So everyone was surprised when it turned out to be her that inherited the Erebus power.

Melody is actually the only one who knows Erin’s true identity, but that’s mostly because she guessed/knew of Aeris’ nickname. Aeris was pretty much her only friend growing up until her ‘death’, so she and Erin became really close at the Academy. She’s also the second one to gain her Millennium Crystal.

Sailor Thanatos/Alex Lea – It’s sort of obvious that I based her hair off the Earthia Thanatians. I just thought it would be funny. But I differentiated them by giving her normal skin.

Thanatos was an unknown member of the team until very recently. They hadn’t known about the Academy or the other members for, like, ever, so the previous Thanatos’ have just sort of been winging it. They were rather surprised to learn they were actually a part of a team and very eager to send Alex off to the Academy to meet them.

The previous Thanatos is Alex’s grandmother, since the power skipped a generation. She actually joined the Academy at the very start of the story, which is why her first form is a lot older than the others. She hadn’t figured out her second form yet, but she figures it out very quickly with the help of the others. She generally feels out of place because she hasn’t been around the whole time, but the others are very exciting to have her around and love being with her, and are very welcoming.

Sailor Nemesis/Topaz – Ugh, I love this design! It absolutely sucks that she’s a villain. >.< Don’t ask me why I gave her species horns while trying to make everyone human-eque. I just thought it’d look cool.

So, obviously, Topaz lost her mother in the attack on Aeolus, and she one hundred percent blames Erin for this fact since she’s the one who now holds the power her mother sought. Her entire reason for being is to get revenge for her mother’s death, which is one reason she sends Aegir to the Academy to get dirt on her.

She’s also completely in love with Seamus, which is one of many reasons he was abducted in the first place. He obviously shows no feelings for her, since he’s always been in love with Aeris, but that doesn’t stop her from acting like they’re destined.

She’s actually a very competent villain, but once Aeolus started to get involved in her schemes, she’s started to get a little sloppy, which is why, of course, the guardians are always able to get the upper hand over her. I was thinking about giving her a Millennium form as well, but decided to keep that to be something only Aeolus and her team can achieve.

Sailor Eris/Morrisa de Helios – Again, I love this design sheet, and hate that the best designs are being used for the villains, lol. This one has the best concept to boot.

So, obviously, Eris is Helios’ lost sister. Basically, she was rather angry about the fact that her younger sister is the one who inherited the Helios power, and ran away. She ended up coming across the previous Eris over there, who decided to bestow the power to her.

See, while the other powers are always inherited, usually between family members, the Eris power is always given. It’s the reason why her secondary color is different from the previous form. Morrisa sort of hates playing second fiddle to Topaz, but she also doesn’t mind because she considers Topaz a close friend.

(I got a laugh at the thought of Topaz making them have sort of matching dressed and then wear the same shoes because she 100% would do something like that.)

Morrisa isn’t necessarily a bad person, just misguided and a little vengeful, which is why she works well with Topaz. She’s not a huge fan of Aegir, but tolerates him for the most part, but feels hurt when he does got and betray him, since he was just always…there.) Oh, and she does care for her little sister, which makes her missions interesting when she’s around.

I was enjoying thinking about this story and was actually considering maybe doing a fan-fic for NaNo this year, lol. But I figure I might as well toss up the designs somewhere rather than sitting on them for another three years, and it might as well be Tumblr, right? (Tumblr tends to keep the file size and not just have the shrinked version years later XD)
