Advanced Character Profile
Character Name: Laira
Gender: Female
Age and Date of Birth: 200 years old, no equivalent date of birth on Earth.
Used Canons: manga, anime
Appearance: Standing at 5’9, Laira has long straight dark orange hair that goes to her knees when held in a high pontytail. Her eyes are the same colour of her hair, which compliment her greenish yellow skin tone that is typical of the people from the planet Ixalia. Her ears are pointed, similar to what Humans would call elves. Having been trained in the art of war for most of her two hundred years, she has a slight muscular build. When she isn’t wearing her senshi outfit, which is almost all the time, she prefers to wear a tight fitting sleeveless shirt and a loose, flowing cotton-like pants. Both are either in white, black or a shade of grey.
Personality: As she was trained from a young age in the art of war, Laira is extremely disciplined, organized, and is capable of holding her cool in almost any situation. However, if you anger her enough, she does have an explosive temper, so watch out. She doesn’t have time for many other emotions and tends to push them down when she can. She has been told growing up that they will only get in the way of her goals.
The Ixalian people love their Senshi, adoring her. This has caused her to love and crave this attention, even becoming slightly vain. She will do whatever is necessary for her people to love her, even if it means decimating another world. In this regard she is slightly insecure. She was raised in the shadow of the old Sailor Ixalia, growing up on her tails and exploits. In a perfect world for her, she would be the saviour, the one that future Ixalian senshi looked back upon to guide their actions.
Laira honestly believes that she is doing what is right, protecting people across the galaxies and taking revenge on the Sol Senshi who killed her fore bearer. These beliefs are due in part from being brain washed by the council of elders who were put in place to help raise the senshi and further exasperated by a small portion of Chaos the elders allowed to infect her, in order to augment her powers. She will take her revenge on the Sol Senshi for murdering the previous Sailor Ixalia, and humiliating her people and by murdering the Sol Senshi, she will prove to everyone that she is worth of the title Sailor Ixalia. Being brought up by the elders, and being isolated from others her age, made Laira socially awkward. She doesn’t know how to deal with people who are kind to her, thinking it is nothing but a trick. She doesn't trust people and barely trusts the elders, but they raised her, so they must be right, right?

History: Long before the Silver Millennium, many of the galaxies were in turmoil. War raged strongly between planets, different people unable to accept differences between them. The strong preyed on the weak, utterly destroying people and worlds. The Ixalians, who have always been a military race had been left for the most part alone. Rarely were they challenged, thus leaving their little part of space relatively quiet. However, they were not immune to the cries for help from planets and systems around them. Lead by Sailor Ixalia, the Ixalians took their home system by storm, pushing out the invaders and helping devastated planets rebuild.
As war goes, some remain blood thirsty, eager for more battle even long after any fighting is done. One such Ixalian who was serving as a long range scout, keeping an eye out for any threats that may enter their solar system. Angry that the war had ended, having been a fine warrior now reduced to sentry duty, he made an easy target for Chaos. Promising that he would soon see war he agreed, allowing a large piece of Chaos to infect him. What the poor warrior didn’t know was that anyone who did not possess a Sailor Crystal stood no chance of living once Chaos had infected them. Using him to make its way to Ixalia, Chaos hide, slowly infecting the planet, influencing how people thought. Sailor Ixalia, knowing something was wrong, began to look into why so many people were acting so strange. They had always been a military culture, but they were also a loving people. They valued protecting others, not blood thirsty murder. Chaos, knowing that it needed to act fast, infected a close companion to the Sailor Senshi, using her to murder Sailor Ixalia. Chaos cackled in glee as it watched the Sailor Crystal return to the Galaxy Cauldron. Now he had time to set the planet up to its liking. He would have a senshi for a slave, a tool for it to use.
It took many years for the Sailor Crystal to be reborn, but Chaos didn’t mind, knowing that it had plenty of time. Slowly effecting the Ixalian people, it bent them to its will, using influential members to set up a council that would raise the next senshi from a young age. When the Senshi was finally reborn on Ixalia, she was trained when she was deemed an adult by Ixalian standards. She became a fine warrior, strong willed and stubborn. She led many successful campaigns to take over surrounding areas. Heading on her own to scout out the Sol System, Sailor Ixalia encountered Sailor Earth and her guardians, dying at their hands. The only consolation that Chaos had was that she had managed to destroy the senshi as well.
The next Sailor Ixalia did not last very long, dying in a horrific training accident, never having left her planet.
A waste, she was weak Chaos sneered. No matter, it had plans for the next one. It would use a small part of itself to infect the Senshi, knowing that the Sailor Crystal would protect her from dying and it would augment her powers. Only being able to infect the willing, Chaos used its influence on the council to convince the next Senshi to agree.
Being taken from her family at such a young age, Laira’s parents didn’t play a huge part in her upbringing, rarely seeing them as she grew up. Instead, she was put in a military camp that was over seen by a council of elders. Their job was to oversee her upbringing and her training, in order to produce the best warrior they could but more importantly, one that was brainwashed in loyalty. The only games Laira played growing up were designed to further enhance her skills. She was isolated away from her family and anyone close to her own age. Growing up lonely, she pushed away and buried any feelings that the council deemed were unnecessary. They drilled her to be the perfect killing machine one that would be able to exact revenge against the Sol System. Upon reaching her 200
th birthday, the council has deemed Laira ready, sending her to Earth in order to complete her mission: Take Revenge on the Sol Senshi by any means necessary.
She doesn't know how to handle kindness and empathy, having been shown none growing up. She cannot understand their motivations and has a difficult time predicting actions that aren't motivated by revenge or anger. This makes it difficult for her to be able to manipulate people like Sailor Moon into a position where Ixalia can destroy her.

Senshi Information
Senshi Name: Sailor Ixalia
Realm of Influence(s): Electromagnetism and Energy
Henshin/Transformation Phrase: Ixalia Planet Power, Make Up!
Senshi Fuku: Her senshi fuku consists of a dark grey material with a silver colour and black for accents. The tiara she wears is cold with a silver gem in middle. Wearing a sleeveless crop top, it has three rings right at the shoulder. On her top is a bow. The edges are a light silver colour fading into the darker grey of her uniform. In the center is a white eight pointed star, outlined in black. This star is the symbol of the Ixalian people.
The gloves go just past her wrists, ending with a black ribbon. There is a decorative black line on her gloves around her wrist. The skirt is three tiered, the waist being black and the edges of the top and bottom tier being outlined in black. The middle tier is outlined in a silver colour. Around her waist she has a ribbon that goes from the light grey star that sits at the top of her skirt and goes around to the back, connecting to the silver bow in the back. From the bow, two silver ribbons hang.
Completing her outfit are the two gold earrings in her ears and thigh high boots. At the top of the boots are silver trim and from her ankles to her knee, there is a silver lace.
Powers: Electro Shield: An attack that isn’t called out, it forms a sphere around her made of electromagnetic energy. It is fairly good at stopping most attacks from getting at her.
Ixalian Slash: Using her Fauchard, grey energy begins to surround the blade. She then makes a diagonal cutting motion in the air, the energy on her blade leaves and hurtles through the air in a diagonal line at the target(s) of choice. This attack is capable of hitting more than one target at a time. Alternatively if she is in a tight space where she can’t use her Fauchard, she can make the same motion with her arm, allowing the energy to gather on her hand. This attack causes physical damage on the person where ever the slash touches, leaving deep lacerations.
Energy Beams: An attack that isn’t called out, she can shot grey energy beams from her hands by holding them out at the intended target. Not as strong as Ixalian Slash, and is only able to hit one target at a time. The energy overwhelms the person, firing all of their nerves at once. Very similar to effect to being electrocuted.
Weapons or Magical Items: Fauchard- a 7 foot long pole with a curved blade on top. The handle is black with a highly polished metal that is stronger than anything found on earth.
Bracelet- a silver bracelet made from a type of metal native to Ixalia, it is stylized with various black swirls. This item is her transformation item.
Guardian: n/a
RP Sample: This was it. It was her time now, her time to prove to everyone including the elders that she was capable of being their protector, their warrior, and their military leader. It was her first time off Ixalia, she could feel fear building in her stomach, but she ruthlessly pushed it away. Fear had no place here. Only confidence in ones’ abilities. She would complete the task the elders set before her. She would redeem her planet, bringing them forward into glory once more. Determined to succeed, Laira grinned to herself as she set off for earth. These Sol Senshi had no idea what they were about to face.
