Character Name: Endymion Chiba-Tsukino
Gender: Male
Age and Date of Birth: August 3rd; several hundred years old
 
Used Canons: manga, anime
 
Appearance: King Endymion has not aged since he turned 25, and now, as then, he can be an imposing figure. Standing only inches below six feet tall, he towers over most citizens of Crystal Tokyo. With a flawless complexion of creamy skin, a face that breaks hearts at first glance and blue eyes that seem to peer into your soul, intimidation could be his middle name. And indeed, to those whom he is unfamiliar with, or those who cross him, this is all one sees of King Endymion: a tall, perfect man with cruel eyes and black hair.

But if you get closer... you’ll find a mischievous quirk of his eyebrows, a dashing smile, a tender glance and welcoming, accepting expression. Ever since Usako came into his life his most common appearance is one of calm happiness or animated teasing, and after nearly a millennium spent together, much of King Endymion's initial frostiness has worn away, and those judging, cruel eyes are only turned upon those who threaten the hard-won peace they have earned.

Around the Crystal Palace he is often seen wearing a near-white tuxedo, tinted faintly lavender, reminiscent of dawn around the rising sun. With this he wears a white mask nearly identical to the one worn while in the guise of Tuxedo Kamen, and a cape akin to the one he wore as Prince Endymion during the silver millennium in all but color. Various medals are pinned to his jacket and adorn his bowtie, and a very familiar pocket watch hangs from the third button of his white vest.


Personality: Mamoru Chiba is an A-blood type through and through, embodying many of their characteristics so much that he could be a spokesperson for the type: People with the A blood type are very calm and level-headed. They make plans and keep them. They make an ideal of what they should be, and try to stick to that ideal. They are very firm, reliable, and trustworthy, but they can also be very hard-headed. From a distance, Type A people may seem aloof or withdrawn. They try to suppress their own emotions, giving the impression that they are very strong. However, they do have a fragile and nervous side. They try to avoid confrontation, and feel quite uncomfortable around others. They are very polite, but somehow feel that they never fit in... -- The Oracle

Several lifetimes' worth of years spent with the love of his life and the balmy effect she has on him has made Endymion less hard-headed than he used to be, and, while it took many years for the change to happen, he is less likely now to suppress his emotions than he used to be. The constant feeling that he doesn't quite fit-in isn't a factor of his personality anymore - he knows exactly where he fits: beside her, and they, with the rest of their friends, belong on Earth, keeping the peace and resisting chaos at all turns.

Endymion is polite and very well mannered; he serves as a diplomat in many functions, and lives up to the reputation of a Good King by showing everyone the utmost respect. He has a soft spot for kids, and often reaches out to those in need, helping without expecting anything in return. When facing problems he is direct, falling back most often on science and proofs to get through where other means could fail. Above all else, King Endymion is sincere.


Any Unique Abilities/Skills: Quick-thinking, computer hacking skills, psychometry (touch-telepathy and intimate connection with the Earth that allows for location), limited healing abilities. Athletic, incredibly smart, great balance and can jump really high when transformed (10 feet easily).

 
History: In the years since ascending the throne of Earth after marrying his soul mate, King Endymion has lead a comparatively easy life. Bringing all countries under one Kingdom was nothing compared to Beryl; figuring out treaties to compensate regions for sending food to areas where food was scares was easy, next to facing off against Queen Nehelenia. Typical troubles that royal houses face paled in comparison to their past, and everything they had gone through up until that point seemed, in some strange way, to utterly prepare them for their roles as rulers. They had help, of course; without it Crystal Tokyo would never have come off the ground, but with all they had accomplished in the past...

The future was like a well deserved retirement. One filled with frustrations and problems, treaties and state dinners, nervous moments and sorrow, but also filled with happiness unlike Endymion thought he had ever deserved. Usako, now Neo Queen Serenity, completed him perfectly; she uplifted him when he felt down, he kept her grounded when she lost sight - every day he fell in love with her over and over again. Small Lady had his heart before she was even born, and having learned of their mistakes before they could even make them made him the father that she deserved --

Even so, though; even knowing about this future before reaching it, Endymion worried about the consequences of knowing the future might have on their past... When their past selves had visited their future, a taboo was broken. Sailor Moon met her future form, Neo-Queen Serenity, and Pluto had warned that it might disrupt the flow of time. They had already witnessed this disruption once – Chibi-Usa told them stories of Sailor Moon’s ‘Ultimate’ form, her Super Sailor Moon incarnation, but when they defeated Nehelenia, Usako turned into Eternal Sailor Moon. That should have been her ultimate form; it should have been the chalice that Chibi-Usa remembered, not the grail; the eternal fuku, not the super. And then there were the outer senshi – Chibi-Usa had no recollection of them, either Uranus, Neptune or Saturn, and while they could have been posted on their respective planets for quite some time, he doubted that they wouldn’t visit within the 900+ years of Chibi-Usa’s existence. Perhaps, in the timeline of Chibi-Usa’s mother, the outer senshi never awakened. Perhaps Beryl was followed with another incarnation of chaos that made them seek the grail, but afterwards their lives had been peaceful up until the Black Moon Clan’s invasion. Or perhaps the future that Chibi-Usa hailed from underwent changes along with Chibi-Usa’s development as the present came across new villains… for he knew now to be on the lookout for the Black Moon clan, and he was sure that they would find a new solution entirely for the exiles as to eliminate the problem before it had a chance to happen.  Time was confusing; if they already knew of the Black Moon clan and did something to advert that happening, Chibi-Usa never would have visited the past, which would create major changes in their own timeline and they wouldn’t remember to stop the Black Moon in the first place. Perhaps it was their destiny to let the Black Moon Clan come… Perhaps he should leave this line of thinking to Sailor Pluto and focus on this life.
Their future had already changed, and so they had no idea what it would hold. 

But together, they would face it.

Other Noteworthy Facts: Mamoru, now King Endymion, is connected to his past life more than any other senshi other than, perhaps, Saturn. It appears he remembers more about his time as Prince Endymion of Earth than he reveals, and often seeks advice from his four guardians, the Shitennou, in the form of their guardian stones, which he keeps in a glass case in the private rooms he shares with Neo Queen Serenity.  His favorite food is chocolate, favorite color is black, and favorite subject in school was Physics. He has issues with needles.
 
Storyline Specific Information: 
Metamorphosis: In the battle against the Black Moon Clan, Neo Queen Serenity has been killed. There was no crystal encasing to save her from the attack, and she took the full brunt of it before any of her guardians could protect her. Now, the sailor soldiers must deal with the repercussions of no longer having her light in their life. How will this affect their friendships and their daily lives? How can they keep up the fight with guilt pulling at them with every turn? And the threat of the Black Moon Clan is growing stronger everyday. Without Neo Queen Serenity to help in the fight, and most of Crystal Tokyo either destroyed or occupied, how will the remaining sailor soldiers keep them from taking over completely?

But never forget: starseeds are always reborn to live again...


Neo Queen Serenity's death has all but killed King Endymion; her absence has left him in a profound state of shock, the emptiness he feels too much for him to face. Hollowed, he is simply waiting to die, and almost resents that he was not taken with her.

A Different Darkness wrote:

He was awake. Suddenly and inexplicably wide awake, without confusion or disorientation… just an overwhelming sensation of dread. The room was deathly silent but for Usako’s deep breathing. They lay curled up together on the bed; his left arm beneath her neck, his bicep a pillow, the other draped over her waist comfortably, one of her hands holding his forearm contentedly. All he saw was a mess of golden hair, but as he raised his head up marginally, trying not to wake her, he clearly saw the luminous red alarm clock on the night stand – 3:00 A.M. – and waited for the feeling of anxious alarm to dissipate… but it only grew.

Something was wrong.

As he looked away from the clock, his eyes were immediately drawn to the dark corner beside the tall windows of the balcony. He could see nothing there, but the shadows were so complete and the contrast between the faint moonlight streaming through the blinds so remarkable, he could not be sure whether he saw the tall silhouette of a person or not.

But there was no mistaking the crushing feel of is presence.

He wondered if he were imagining things, yet he kept his eyes trained on that singular spot, waiting to see what would happen. It had been a long tour, one that might not end for months to come, and there was no denying his exhaustion; surely this was just an extension of the tension he felt or the strain they were under with so many public appearances and purifications – it was an effect of travelling so far in such a short amount of time, a call from his mind that they needed a break. He glanced away, giving the rationalization time to work its way through to his imagination… but the feeling of dread only increased, the presence of whatever it was growing stronger and more potent.

He looked at it again, glaring at the empty space as though his glare alone could keep it at bay. He curled his left arm to hug her even closer to him, farther from the edge of the bed, and gently freed his right arm. He could use other aspects of his psychometry outside of transformation; could he use his energy attack, as well? He raised his arm up, parallel to the surface of the bed, palm facing the corner of the room. It could have been many things – a sign to ‘stop’, for instance, or a warning to stay away – but as a feeling of inexplicable panic washed over him, goosebumps erupting along the length of his body, he knew that the force read it as it was: a threat.

Approved!

If it’s not too much trouble, could you copy and paste one of the samples you linked to the RP sample section? And for Metamorphosis’ SSI, could you tell a bit about how Usagi’s death affected Mamoru?

Thank you!

Changes made! ♥
