Sailorpulsar and Sailorquasar

Sailorpulsar and Sailorquasar

Art drawn by Nancy. Colored by Laurel. Light orbs added using the GIMP program. I must put a note in here that Sailorpulsar's fuku is incorrectly colored. Her skirt and collar should both be turquoise, and both of her bows should be metallic silver. I really don't know why it's taken me this long to point this out on their profile page. :\ Eventually I'll fix their main picture to reflect the color changes.

WEAPONS AND ATTACKS: Because they are twins, Pulsar and Quasar have some of the same attacks with slight differences, and one combined attack, as well as individual ones.

Sailorpulsar's attacks:
  • Radio Rockstar Da Da Dah: The "Da da dah" part of this attack was inspired by the Kirby games for Nintendo and SNES; in one of the Kirby games, when he uses the Mike (microphone) attack, he sings, "DadaDAH!" and it's just so adorable. :D To use this attack, Pulsar cries, "Radio..." A pink portable radio appears in her hands. She tosses it to the enemy, who usually catches it out of confusion, or just to keep from getting hit by it. Then Pulsar says, "...Rockstar..." and a microphone materializes in her hands. Into the microphone she sings, "Da da DAH!" The enemy holding the radio is hit with humongous bursts of radio waves, but only within their own head. It would be like having a radio turned up extremely loud inside your head every few seconds. It causes great pain. All they can hear as long as they hold the radio is, "DAH DAH DAH! (echo) DAH DAH DAH! (echo)" and so on. Either they have to get themselves together enough to drop the radio, or someone has to knock it out of their hand. If they hold the radio too long, they will first have hearing loss, then, within another minute, their head will explode. Literally. From cute to gory! >:-D
  • X-Ray Marrow Tap: Sailorpulsar holds her hands before her face with the palms facing out, index fingers and thumbs together at the tip. She peers in the hole made there and says, "X-Ray Marrow Tap!" A ball of light poofs to life in the space made by her fingers and thumbs. When she draws her hands apart, the ball becomes larger. Then Pulsar flicks it at the enemy. The light ball strikes the enemy in some part of their body, whatever it reaches first, and is dissolved into their skin. The enemy feels like their skeleton is trying to make a hasty exit out of their body as everyone around them can see them in x-ray. The effects last for about 10 seconds. You can imagine how something like this would hurt. Once the 10 seconds are up, the light exits the person's body through a convenient orifice, leaving their bones in tact. However, if Pulsar gets mad enough, she can break bones while the light ball is inside the enemy's body. She just has to mime the bone breaking for it to happen. She can also bend bones this way, but not break them. All can be used to put the enemy in a world of hurt. Using the attack to break bones will not always be the best idea, though, because it means Pulsar has to concentrate on the enemy for longer periods of time, leaving her vulnerable.
Sailorquasar's attacks:
  • Cymbals Superstar La La Lah: Something like Pulsar's attack, but with big differences. When Quasar says, "Cymbals..." two large cymbals appear in her hands. She cries, "Superstar!" and strikes a rocker pose. Then she claps the cymbals together as she sings, "La la lah!" A burst of light between the cymbals produces radio waves that radiate out from the cymbals to attack the enemy. They hear, "LA LA LAH!" sung in a more forceful voice like a heavier style of music would be sung in. If the enemy does not get out of the range of the waves, eventual head blowuppie. The cymbals could also be knocked from Sailorquasar's hands to stop the attack.
  • Pulsating Spinning Trick of the Light: Quasar bows slightly with her arms out to her sides, sort of like she is bowing for a performance, while saying, "Pulsating..." All of the lights around her begin to pulsate like disco lights (lamps, streetlights, car headlights, whatever kind of light is around). She continues, "...Spinning..." and spins her finger up into the air. The lights look like they are spinning to the enemy she has targeted, making them dizzy. Finally she cries, "...Trick of the Light!" and motions at the enemy with both hands like she is throwing something at them. Light orbs shoot out of every available light and strike the enemy. The attack fills their body with light energy, which would drastically raise their body temperature. This gives them such a high fever that they would pass out, and their skin would be hot to the touch. Many enemies would be "healed" (turned good) by this attack, but if not, at least they will be incapacitated for awhile. The attack can also be used to teleport a group; the light energy fills them, turning their body to light, then they are taken to the new location and the process is reversed to take the energy back out of their bodies, so they will be solid again. The major drawback to this attack/teleportation is that the energy taken out of the lights (lamps, streetlights, etc.) causes them to short out and often explode. Sailorquasar can cause city-wide blackouts if she is not careful!
The description of their combined attack is down at the bottom of the page in the spoiler section. Reading it will spoil a plot point for you.

TRANSFORMATION: Gen and Maba cross their transformation wands over one another and shout, "Pulsar Quasar Galactic Power, Make-up!" The twins usually transform together. A spiky ball of light, one of them pulsating, emerges from each wand. They hold hands above their heads, front to front, as the lights spin around them and create a bodysuit and skirt on each of their bodies. The two girls hold each other loosely about the waist and lean back so the balls of light can fly inbetween their chests. The lights dart down their bodies, puffing here and there to make a tiara, choker, collar, and front bow on each girl. Again Gen and Maba link hands and turn back to back, with their hands over their heads in a reverse of the position from the start of their transformation. The space behind them allows the light balls to fly inbetween their bodies and settle briefly on their lower backs like a writer dotting an "i," leaving behind their back bows. The girls twist around again until they stand side by side, and cross one foot over the other twin's closest foot so the balls of light can land there and create a pair of blue sandals on each twins' feet. Sailorpulsar palms one of the light balls, regarding its brilliance thoughtfully, and Sailorquasar holds the other one up as they victorously take their senshi pose.
If at any time the girls are not together and one encounters people in danger, that twin will transform as if the other is there, acting out the entire henshin sequence as if with an invisible partner.

DESCRIPTION: Sailorpulsar and Sailorquasar wear the fuku of the Galactic senshi, who are the senshi that come from asteroids, meteors, comets, stars, so on.

PLACE IN THE SILVER MILLENIUM: Pulsar and Quasar came from another solar system in the Milky Way Galaxy, one that orbited a bright pulsar. They were the princesses of the Kingdom of Light, on the planet Brightness, the Princesses Pulsar and Quasar. The twins did much work for the poor and for orphans, and that is how they became friends with the princesses from Hathor. Pulsar and Quasar were their galactic pen pals, pretty much, and that is why they were visiting the day that Metallia attacked the Sol system, including the asteroid Hathor. Sailorpulsar and Quasar both died in the battle. This is why their souls were sent to Earth to be reborn with the others.

OCCUPATION: Maba is head seamstress and wardrobe mistress to the Kyomu Sisters, while Gen is their stylist and makeup artist.
AGE: 18

EXTRA: I've always wanted to have a set of twins for characters who did creepy things like finish each other's sentences and dress alike even though they are adults. The type of twins who have an unspoken, weird connection to each other that freaks other people out. That's pretty much what I'm aiming for with Gen and Maba.

SPACE STUFF: Pulsars are rapidly spinning, pulsating stars that send out short bursts of radio waves. Some emit x-rays also. They are what is left over from a star that exploded long ago. In time, even pulsars burn themselves out and become ash. Quasars are the size of stars and they give off tremendous light and energy, and radio waves. They are the most powerful sources of light in the universe. In fact, they give off so much light that they are as bright as a thousand galaxies.

Combined attack--Whisper to a Scream: The title of this attack comes from a song by Soho, "Birds Fly," from the Scream soundtrack. Pulsar and Quasar cross their arms over their heads and extend one foot out in identical poses while they whisper, "Whisper to a Scream." An orb of light appears between each of their upraised fingers. The orbs grow in energy before the two senshi turn back to back. While they are doing this, the orbs float in their hands, and as they link hands, the orbs combine. Pulsar and Quasar now say, "Whisper to a Scream" louder. The light orb begins to grow so big that it surpasses their hands in size, shining around them. Finally the twins scream, "Whisper to a Scream!" and the light grows bigger and brighter until it overtakes the entire area. When the light calms back, the twins will be unmoving, frozen in place, and grey as ash. When touched, these "statues" of the two will crumble to dust, because using this attack kills them. Whisper to a Scream can have varying effects on an enemy, depending on how powerful they are--they will either be turned to ash too, or permanently blinded, or burned to a crisp by the white hot light.
