This is a picture of Prince Endymion(a.k.a- Darien, Chibi Mamoru, Mamoru, Prince Darien, Tuxedo Kamen, Moon Light Knight, Neo-Prince Endymion & Tuxedo Mask).
Tuxedo Mask
Always able to show up at the last possible moment, Tuxedo Mask turns out more often than not to be the sailor senshi's cheerleader. His parents killed in a car accident while he was young, Mamoru for a while, knew very little about his past. After many recurring dreams about freeing the Moon Princess, and retreiving some of the rainbow crystals, he realizes his destiny as Tuxedo Mask, the protector of the senshi and of Princess Serenity. Tuxedo Mask, as his name implies, has one of the smoothest costumes in the entire show: He's the only guy slick enough to wear a tuxedo 24-7. Except maybe James Bond. Usually showing up just when things look worst for the senshi, Mamoru usually distracts the youma with an enchanted red rose, giving an encouraging speech to the senshi. In the manga, he also had several other powers, including telepathy, and energy blasts from his cane, which he could also use to deflect attacksMamoru is a college student, several years older than the senshi, who continually teased Usagi about her klutziness, whining, and bad grades. His particular favorite insult for Usagi was Odango Atama ("Meatball Head" or "Dumpling Head"), for which she swore she hated him more than anything. Though Usagi despised Mamoru, she had a crush on Tuxedo Mask: How ironic is that? Only when Usagi and Mamoru found out each other's respective secret identities was their true love for each other revealed. Mamoru, after having several dreams about Usagi being hurt while in his company, decided to leave her completely. Not telling Usagi why he was doing this, he broke her heart and left her questioning her destiny. Finding out the source of these dreams Mamoru reconciled with Usagi. Mamoru has also been brainwashed and turned evil several times, making, in my opinion, one of the coolest characters in the series. Mamoru is Prince Endymion of Earth, and is heir to Crystal Tokyo as Neo-King Endymion. In this position, he is the "senshi" (thought not the sailor senshi) of earth, since there is no princess of the earth. More proof of this is seen in the later seasons. That's why it continually bugs me when people create their own character - "Sailor Earth": Mamoru *IS* the senshi from earth.(Also there has been such a great number of sailor earth's and sailor earth fanfics that it is an extremelly tired cliche) For a time, when Mamoru had his memories of being Tuxedo Mask erased, his indominitable will to fight was embodied as Kishi Tsukikage (The MoonLight Knight). As the MoonLight Knight, Mamoru dressed in loose, white, Arabic-looking clothes, and participated even less in the fights. He merely showed up to tell the senshi to beleive in themselves, that they could beat the droid, etc., and then got out of before all the attacks started flying again.
Luna & Artemis
Luna and Artemis are the guardian cats of the Sailor Scouts. Their job was to revive and revive and regroup the inner senshi if the Dark Kingdom ever broke free. Luna revived every one of the inner senshi except for Sailor Venus, who was revived by Artemis. Artemis is Minako's guardian and Luna is Usagi's. Both Luna and Artemis had a hard time training their charges, because of their similarity in character. (Naoko has stated that both Minako and Usagi were based on her character). Later, during the Crystal Tokyo time they have a daughter named Diana. Diana becomes the guardian of Chibi-Usa aka Small Lady Serenity. In the Sailor Moon S movie Luna is turned into a human for a brief time. In the manga all of the cats have human form and are from the planet Mau. (note: only Luna is human in the anime. Artemis and Diana stay in "cat form" the entire time.)
