SENSHI IDENTITY: Sailorhathor, the Senshi of Revenge
REAL NAME: Kikan Kyomu (Name means Mirror Nothingness)
NICKNAME: Some call her Kiki at times
AMERICAN DUB NAME ^_^ : Candace Notting
SENSHI COLORS: Grey, black, and sparkly blue
WEAPONS AND ATTACKS: Sailorhathor is the keeper of the Sistrum Staff. It is a long silver pole with a large oval-
shaped mirror on one end and a mirror ball on the other. The mirror ball (yes, like a disco ball) is actually the
rattle part of the Sistrum; it makes loud menacing rattle noises when Hathor strikes it on the ground. On the top,
the mirror is rimmed in silver that form three curlies on its surface. At the top of this mirror are two symbols
of the goddess Hathor, the sun disc and two cattle horns. The mirror rests on a stylized black... thingie... ???
Sailorhathor's transformation item is her necklace, the Hathor Hieroglyphic Mirror. It is described in the Description
section below.
Because Hathor is my favorite mythological goddess of all time, I couldn't help but create more powers for her than
she really needs. :D There are just too many awesome stories associated with her that gave me so many neat ideas
that I couldn't stand to leave even one out.
- Scarab Cloud: Sailorhathor holds up the Sistrum Staff and speaks the words, "Scarab Cloud!" A huge amount of
golden scarab beetles fly out of the mirror and form clouds around the enemy that are hard to see through. This is a
defensive attack meant to blind the target.
- Scarab Strangle: This attack begins the same way as Scarab Cloud, but the scarabs actually attack the target
by forcing their way into the enemy's body (through the mouth, nose, ears, and burrowing through the skin) and biting
them from the inside out, or clogging up their throat so they cannot breathe. A very gruesome attack. Hathor can lessen
the effect if she does not want to kill the enemy or for the attack to be quite so gruesome.
- Bloodthirsty Eye: When Hathor points the Sistrum at her target, cattle horns aimed at them, she says, "Bloodthirsty
Eye," and red-brown energy courses over the sundisk and cattle horns. Suddenly the energy shoots from the tips of the
horns to hit the enemy in the heart, from which it flows over their entire body. This attack begins to extract the blood
from the person's body through their eyes, nose, mouth, and ears--it flows through the air back into the cattle horns on
the Sistrum. Sailorhathor can vary the intensity of the attack depending on how much she wants to hurt the enemy, and how
fast.
- Reflection Fracture: Another defensive power. It is used to break apart the attacks of others. When the
Sistrum is held before someone else's approaching attack, Hathor says, "Reflection Fracture." Several octagon-shaped
mirrors dancing with color come out of the big mirror in the Sistrum. The octagons have longer sides than they do
tops; I'll eventually get a drawing up of their shape. The smaller mirrors smash into the attack, shattering
themselves, but also breaking apart the attack. These mirrors make the tinkling sounds of windchimes as they move.
- The Nile Runs with my Venom: When Hathor speaks the name of this attack, a quick stream of contaminated river
water spurts out of her necklace in the middle of her bow and squirts the enemy in the face. This instantly fills their
bloodstream with intoxicating poison; the effect is much like alcohol poisoning. The enemy will usually pass out in
reaction.
- Sekhmet's Vengeance: Sailorhathor's most deadly attack, based on sheer number of people she can successfully
disable with it. Before this attack can begin, someone must ask Hathor to enact revenge for them using the proper
magical words. If she finds them worthy, she will carry out their vengeance in the way they request. The power to
carry out this revenge will most likely be given to her. The
attack usually happens in the following way: Hathor says, "Sekhmet's Vengeance." The Sistrum levitates upright in front
of her so everyone can see into the mirror. Sailorhathor raises her arms above her head in the curved form of the
cattle horns with her hands pointing in, and closes her eyes in concentration. Then Hathor takes up the Staff and attacks with it. The
"twirlies" on the mirror unravel and strike out at the people who are targeted for revenge. Each person sees what is
about to happen to them reflected in the mirror just seconds before it really happens. Hathor can also use the cattle horns to impale her targets. This attack can level entire
armies if necessary, depending on what type of weapons the army possesses. The twirlies are like spikes with razor sharp
edges, so they can do a great deal of damage, even cause death. While performing this attack, it's almost like Hathor goes into a "berserker" trance, because she will not stop until she has either brought down all enemies around her, or until she is stopped.
TRANSFORMATION: Kikan says her transformation phrase, "Hathor Galactic Power, Make-up!" Streams of blood emerge
from her necklace on all sides and form a "wall" in front of her, like a levitating puddle. Then the puddle splashes
Kikan all over her front, as if she has fallen into it, although she is standing up the entire time. As the blood
runs off her body, it "dissolves" Kikan's clothes. The blood forms spirals that move around individual parts of her
body and create her fuku. Hathor takes off her necklace and places it over the middle of her front bow where it stays;
this causes the horns of the Sistrum to magically emerge from Hathor's chest (sort of like how the Sword of Dios comes
out of the chest of Anthy in Revolutionary Girl Utena). With an ecstatic expression, Sailorhathor pulls the
staff from her chest as she lays back to make this easier for herself. The staff eventually gets too long to draw
out in this manner, so Hathor stands upright again and pulls the staff forward so the rest of it emerges from her
torso in one sweep. The transformation is complete when she poses with her staff as Sailorhathor.
DESCRIPTION: Kikan has medium toned skin, shoulder-blade length red-brown hair with a little bit of bangs (her hair is
the color of drying blood), and eyes the same color. As Sailorhathor, she wears the fuku of the Galactic
senshi. The Galactics are the senshi that come from outer space objects that have no other definite team,
such as meteors, asteroids, and comets. Their fuku consists of the normal skirt, choker, bows, and tiaras,
but the top is different--they wear a long sleeve jacketish top with short gloves that only reach the wrist.
This top buttons up the front. The following items are black on Hathor's uniform: tiara jewel and jacket top.
The following items on Hathor's uniform are grey: tiara, choker fabric, collar, skirt, and knee-high snap-up
boots. Her bows are both sparkly blue (the front bow should be the same color as the back bow; I messed up in the
coloring above). The buttons on Sailorhathor's jacket and boots are silver, as is her choker jewel. The stripe on her
collar and her gloves are white. Sailorhathor's transformation item is the oval mirror that rests in the middle of
her front bow. While she is Kikan, this is a necklace. The pendant is an oval-shaped mirror trimmed in silver with
the hieroglyphic for Hathor engraved on its surface. This hieroglyphic symbol looks like a bird inside a box. There
is a picture of it below. Hathor's talisman is described above in the Weapons section.
PLACE IN THE SILVER MILLENIUM: I consider this a story spoiler, so you'll find this information at the bottom of
the page.
OCCUPATION: Singer and concert pianist
AGE: 19
GUARDIAN: Sailorhathor's guardian is a sleek tan cat named Bastet, after the Egyptian goddess of cats. Bastet
wears a collar set with rubies and trimmed in gold, and a gold earring with the hieroglyphics for "Hathor's cat"
on it.
MYTHOLOGY: Hathor was principally an Egyptian cow goddess associated with the sky as the Celestial Cow who formed
the heavens. The arts (dancing, music, painting, singing, etc.) and intoxication also fall under her dominion.
Symbols of this goddess include the sistrum (a type of rattle), the horns and sundisk headdress (in much later times,
incorporated into the attire of Isis), the menat (a ritual necklace), and mirrors. Priests of Hathor also functioned
as oracles and midwives, and interpreted people's dreams.
A story involving Hathor is called "The Destruction of Mankind." In this story, Ra, the sun god and Hathor's father,
requested that Hathor act as his Eye (The Eye of Ra) and become Sekhmet, the goddess of war. As Sekhmet, she would
get revenge on mankind for transgressing against Ra. Hathor was so enthusiastic at her task that she nearly wiped out
all of humanity. This is not how Ra wanted things to turn out, but no one could make Hathor cease her slaughter. Ra
conspired to stop the goddess by having a concoction of beer and red coloring made up to look like blood. Some 7,000
jars were made, and the red beer was poured over the fields so they appeared to be running with the blood of humans.
When Hathor saw the fields, she smacked her lips and began to drink it up to satisfy her bloodlust. Of course it was
only beer and Hathor became so drunk on it that she forgot what she was doing. When she sobered up, she went back to
being her nice usual self.
In another myth, "The Distant Goddess," Hathor becomes angry with Ra and wanders away from Egypt. Lost without his
Eye, Ra tries to find someone to get her back. Eventually Thoth, the god of the moon and inventor of writing and speech,
agrees to lure her to Egypt by putting on a disguise and telling her stories all the way back home. Back in Egypt, Hathor
bathes in the Nile, which turns red and boils from the effort of cooling her rage. Again she settles into her normally
gentle demeanor.
Later in time, Hathor began to be thought of as a goddess of love and beauty, and her visage was softened by her
association with the cat goddess Bastet.
Many of these factors and stories concerning Hathor have influenced my fansenshi based on her.
SPACE STUFF: Hathor is the name of an actual asteroid in our solar system. I can't remember which belt it is located in;
I'll have to check that sometime.
EXTRA: Kikan's sisters are Nezumi and Adrianna .

PLACE IN THE SILVER MILLENIUM: Three little girls showed up in the thorny briar forest surrounding
the castle of Hathor unexpectedly one day. The kingdom of Hathor was located on the asteroid of the
same name, so no one could fathom how these three girls whom no one recognized nor claimed got there;
after all, the kingdom of Hathor was not that overtly large. The children were all female and very
young. At the time, the oldest was three, the middle child was two, and the youngest was barely a
month old. The oldest child had to carry the baby in a basket, which was obviously hard for her. The
three girls were taken to the castle so their identities could be uncovered. Upon seeing the poor
precious babies all covered in thorn cuts and dirt, the Queen instantly fell in love with them and
wanted to raise them as her own. The Queen herself could not have children, so adopting these girls
would be a good idea to ensure the kingdom of heirs. Since no one claimed them, the children were
indeed adopted by the king and queen. A note inside the basket read, "I can no longer care for my
babies. Please take good care of them," and identified the children by age and name--Kikan was the
oldest, Nezumiiro was the middle child, and Adrianna was the baby.
The Queen showered her adopted daughters with attention and material things to try to make up for
their rough beginning in life. It was never discovered who their real parents were.
When they each reached the age of 14, Kikan and Nezumi mysteriously received the powers of senshi--
Kikan became Sailorhathor, and Nezumi became Sailorblackhole. Many people were shocked at this turn
of events because usually only the blood children of mages and royalty became senshi. What was even
more shocking was the level of power these girls had--both harbored massively deadly powers. But as
long as they were the protectors of the kingdom, their powers were thought of as an asset.
When Metallia, Queen Beryl, and her army attacked the solar system, they eventually advanced on the
asteroid Hathor, but everyone there was unprepared to deal with it because something tragic had
happened--someone had murdered the king and queen. The kingdom, in mourning, was preparing for the
funeral when they were attacked. The citizens turned to Sailorhathor and Blackhole to protect the
kingdom. No one knows why, but the senshi suddenly turned on their own loyal subjects and attacked
them, appearing to side with Metallia. The only conclusion anyone could come to was that the girls
had been brainwashed, so the citizens fought back, taking them by surprise, and stoned them to
death. Adrianna had never exhibited any signs of being a senshi, but out of fear, the citizens
killed her too. Then Metallia's army successfully wiped out the entire kingdom.
Hathor, Blackhole, and Adrianna were all reincarnated with the others when Queen Serenity sent
the senshi into the future.
