Pride!

One day I realised a lot of my favourite senshi are lion themed!

On the left is Sailor Leo belonging to Entheory. She's has a marvelous Zodiac team all with unique designs. Don't you love those tiara ears? You should see how cool her boots are!

Middle is Sailor Regulus belonging to Regulus, leader of the Leo Alliance! The inheritor of the Infinite Lion Armor that has been stolen by the evil legionnaire Alcides in his pursuit of immortality. All that stands in his way is a reincarnated mtf schoolgirl, a dog and Sailor Moon!

On the right is Sailor Ianna. She's the sunflower princess of the Pairidaeza System (actually Alpha Centauri) . Forbidden to transform by her father, when her planet was attacked she had to flee. Taken in by the Sol Senshi, they help her train, and with the Starlights in the neighbourhood, everyone will band together to fight back!

Do you have a lion senshi? Do you have OCs who want to play? Come join us at the Fan Senshi Alliance!

:Name & Meaning:

To hide on Earth, the Princess took the name Hannah Girasole, claiming to be an Italian exchange student. Hannah is an Earth name of Hebrew origin that means ‘grace’, and Girasole is the Italian word for ‘Sunflower’, a bright yellow flower known for its beauty and resilience.

:Age & Birthday:

In Earth years, she is eighteen years old and was born August 21.

:Appearance:

Hannah can always be recognised at a distance by her bright orange hair that seethes like fire. She stands 5’1, and it’s thigh length, curtain straight with fan shaped buns and two thick locks framing her heart shaped face. Her eyes that blaze like stoked embers and her peach coloured cheeks have a high blush when she thinks she's being teased.

As royalty, she always felt stifled but now that she’s on Earth she’s excited to choose her own wardrobe. She has a 70’s flare, loving romper suits in colours and patterns. She also accents her outfits with glass crystal that refracts rainbow arcs as they remind her of home.

:Personality: 

Hannah is a hard headed person who thinks she only needs herself. It was how she was raised, her father demanded her strength as feelings would make her fallible. Her own wants and needs must always come second to those of her people.

She is afraid of being seen as frail or useless. Although she acts with kindness she keeps people at a distance and doesn’t encourage friendship. To rely on others is to admit weakness and as Queen it is her responsibility to bear the burdens of others, not the other way around. 

Earth has opened her eyes. Without her father watching over her she is slowly allowing herself to experience freedom to choose her own happiness and wellbeing and a warm light within her is beginning to shine! She now has others, and is slowly learning the power that friendship, love and trust can give. 

:Likes: 

Tiramisu, music, tea, coffee, pedicures, cooking and Seiya!

:Dislikes: 

Eggs, doctors, long hours of studying!

:Hobbies:

Since coming to Earth everyone has encouraged Hannah to discover herself. She enjoys working in the school gardens, the soil between her fingers and is in awe of the explosive growth of the sunflowers! Usagi and Makoto have shown her how to scrapbook which she has found as a way to show her feelings and collect her thoughts. She also has a knack for videogames and wastes her days with Usagi at the Game Centre Crown.

She also spends a lot of her time staring at the sky. She enjoys the peace of the stars, but loves the explosive colours of fireworks!  

She loves going to Seiya's concerts; just hearing his music takes away her worries.

Relationships

╚═══*.·:·.☽✧    ✦    ✧☾.·:·.*═══╝

:Family: 

Born the only daughter of King Ciro and Queen Leon, she was their pride and joy. Her mother was always of a delicate condition but lavished her daughter with love and attention, playing and singing and telling her the stories of the Sailor Guardians and Ianna’s last great protector. She died when Princess Leonessa was four years old and has since become a hazy memory of warmth and refuge.  

 Her father was more serious about the responsibilities of her mantle which also made Leonessa resolute in her duties. She worked hard to make her father proud, studying and practising. Leonessa is twisted by guilt that the last time she defied her father it cost him his life. She must become the best Guardian she can be and save her legacy. 

:Friends: 

Although she is getting to know all the senshi, after landing disoriented and sobbing, she’s taken in by Makoto who becomes her best friend and Earth guide. The pair share her apartment and love to discover recipes. Hannah has fallen in love with the cheesy Italian dish called polenta! Makoto introduces Hannah to the school garden and encourages her to grow sunflowers but mostly she tries to distract her from her constant need to train.

Hannah has a more confused relationship with Usagi, a girl who shares her destiny as ruler of their Kingdoms. Usagi is cheerful, carefree and easily distracted. The Sun Princess is frustrated by her disorganised and undisciplined way of solving problems, but envies the joy she brings to those around her.

She has also been taken under the wing of the Kou family. They treat her like a little sister, Yaten playfully teases her adapting to Japanese custom and Taiki praises her dedication to returning to Pairidaeza. Seiya has become especially protective of her, seeing the same light that shines in their favourite princesses.

:Rivals: 

When Hannah landed the Outer’s were patrolling the Earth in the form of concerts and racing tours. When they returned they immediately greeted Hannah with suspicion. Not only did they consider her a trespasser to their system there was something about her Sunstone that interrupted the powers of the Talisman, the Holy Grail and thus Sailor Moon’s Eternal transformation. They dislike how Usagi immediately welcomes her and while they don’t view her as an enemy, the Pairidaeza may not be allies.

 It wasn’t until Sailor Moon achieved her new transformation did they begin to trust her. 

:Love Interests: 

Princess Leonessa was stubbornly resolute, always wanting to show that she could do things by herself and prove she could be the Queen her father wanted.

Seiya Kou started as a clingy brother figure and a distraction, and as Sailor Star Fighter she was overprotective, constantly interrupting her training as Sailor Ianna.

But as Hannah grew, Seiya loved to share all the wonderful things Earth had to offer and a heady freedom she never felt in the palace of Ianna. These experiences drew them closer together despite the knowledge that they would eventually have to go back to their homes.

:Sexual Orientation: 

Love was not something she had considered before Earth, but she knows that her feelings do not change whether they are male and human, or female and a Sailor Guardian.

:Background:

In the Pairidaeza (means Heavenly Garden in Sumerian) Star System, known to us as Alpha Centauri, Princess Leonessa was born the only daughter to King Ciro and Queen Leon; their hope and the future. 

For a time their lives in Palazzo Del Sole (Sunlight Palace) were perfect. Each night Queen Leon would sing her lullabies and tell her stories of the great protector of Ianna, and King Ciro would watch over them both although harrumphed at the frivolous fairytales. 

Sadly it wasn’t to last and when Princess Leonessa was four, her mother succumbed to a wasting illness. 

Wrought by loss, King Ciro pulled his daughter tighter. He became protective and knew it was his responsibility to raise his daughter into the Queen he knew she could be; poise and politics, law and integrity. 

The older she grew the more distant her memory of her mother became until one day when she was fourteen she sat at her mother's old duchess and a sunflower shaped jewel drew her attention. As she reached for it, it reacted to her touch, blazing with a warm golden light and a power she’d never felt before. Her father snatched it away with a fearful look in his eyes. She promised him she’d never touch it again.

Princess Leodessa grew into a sunny, energetic young lady working endlessly for her people. One day while meeting her people she was introduced to a shepherd named Tummuz. He declared his undying love and petitioned the king for her hand. King Ciro laughed good naturedly but dismissed the idea. 

A bitterness overtook the shepherd, he left the planet but he returned with unbelievable power and a coterie called the Judges of Kur, a rogue planet beyond their borders. They demanded Princess Leonessa as a bride. They ravage the land and demand the Princess as their prize. 

Desperate to stop the carnage, Leonessa snuck out to confront Tummuz and offer herself in exchange for peace but before the transfer could be made King Ciro interceded, sacrificing himself for his beloved daughter. 

As the light faded from his eyes, he pressed Queen Leon’s precious crystal into the princess’s hands. A glow enveloped her before she could say goodbye; she was thrust across space to awaken see on Earth.

Guardian Form

╚═══*.·:·.☽✧    ✦    ✧☾.·:·.*═══╝

:Name: 

Sailor Ianna 

:Guardian Starseed: 

 It was said to be lost to myth, merely a dull artefact that sat on her mother’s mantle but when Princess Leonessa teleported to Earth the Crystal awoke and bonded with her starseed. It was known by many names. The Golden Light Stone, the Sunstone, the Crystal Sunflower; but within it lies the burning bright power of Ianna.

:Realm of Influence: 

Sailor Ianna powers reflects blazing sunlight, vibrant sunflowers and takes the vision of lions with manes burning like solar flares.

:Guardian Animal: 

As Princess Leonessa walked the halls of Palazzo Del Sole, Sir Luca (means Bringer of Light) was her constant companion and a knight of her royal court. He was a lamasso, a winged lion that is a symbol of the Ianna royal family. He is a loyal soldier and servant. He defended Queen Leon and will shield Princess Leonessa with his life. 

He will not give up his dad jokes.

In his lamasso form stands at shoulder height with a bronzed pelt, brass wings and a flaming golden mane. His roar can clear a concert hall and leave grown men quivering in fear. He is a fierce defender in any fight against the enemy. 

He’s frustrated by the Princess’s need to do things on her own, disregarding his advice and confronting the Seven Judges at every chance. He is even more outraged that in order to blend in on Earth she demands he take the form of a sandy coloured maine coon. He hisses, spits, scowls and swaggers at group meetings but standing a little over a foot robs his threats of disembowelment of their power. 

He smirks at Artemis and makes showoff, flirty winks at Luna but is equally trying to foil Seiya’s flirting with Hannah.

:Allies/Team Mates: 

Despite the newly minted Sailor Ianna’s independent declaration to take the Seven Judges head on by herself, she still needs help.

The Inners have become wonderful teachers, helping her hone the strength and accuracy of her new attacks and tell her tales of their past victories.

What’s more is that after seeing the death of their own princess, the Starlights have taken it upon themselves to act as her missing defenders. While infuriated by their ‘wrap her in bubblewrap’ approach to protection, Sailor Ianna eventually sees it for the genuine affection it is and as her experience grows they put more faith in her ability to take care of herself.

:Henshin Item: 

Sailor Ianna has a matching pair of armcuffs that appeared to her when she confronted one of the Judges for the first time. To a civilian eye they look like wired armbands twisted in the shape of sunflowers but anyone with a magical eye sees them for what they are. White circlets ringed in gold and hemmed in gold droplets, with amber diamond jewels with princess cut facets. It sits at a sunflower of gold petals and a ruby hexagram star.  When she transforms, Hannah crosses her arms across her chest to press each jewel and shout her henshin phrase. 

:Henshin Phrase: 

Ianna Sun Power!

:Henshin Sequence:

Ianna crosses her arms across her chest to press the jewels of her cuffs and shouts Ianna Sun Power! Sunflower petals, dust motes and golden rays of sunlight and whirling erupt from them. 

They spin around her in a whirlwind. They twirl past, she kicks out her legs and the petals cling to form her boots. Rays of light explode from her waist coalescing into her belt which then spill forth into her scarlet skirt in rippling satin waves. The golden sunflower petals continue to tumble, pressing against her chest and fuse into her golden plate armor. Light beams erupt from her chest to form her peach coloured bow and scarlet sailor collar. 

Finally the camera pans up behind her head and her flaming waves of hair. The motes of sunlight tangle like beads around her fan shaped buns to form their decorations. The camera spins to focus on her forehead where the symbol of Ianna shines like the sun and then melts into her toothed tiara.

 Finally she stands powerful as the guardian of Ianna, Sailor Ianna ready to do battle.     

:Symbol:

:Guardian Challenge: 

“The light of the sun rises up! Hear me roar in the name of love and justice! I, Sailor Ianna, will take you down!”

:Guardian Fuku:

The Pairidaeza fuku silhouette looks similar to the Sol fuku but is more striking and colorful.

Pinning her fan shaped buns are toothed bands. Her tiara is white with scarlet bands and a toothed pattern. Her sailor collar is scarlet with a darker maroon stripe. Peach coloured bows are set on her chest and back. Her bodice is white with translucent puff sleeves, a scarlet corset and gold V-d armor plating protecting her midriff. Encircling her upper arms, wrists, thighs and waist are white metal bands with gold trim. Her thigh high boots are maroon.

:Weapon: 

When the fight was bleak, Sailor Ianna was able to reach inside herself and manifest the ancestral talisman of the Ianna royal family; the Blade of Light. It is a long double edged sword made of the legendary sun-gold metal the Pairidaeza metalsmiths are famous for. Its hilt bears the family crest of jewel and sunflower, ruby coloured crossguard and with red grip crisscrossed in gold ribbon. The pommel is also decorated with rope tassels.

Sailor Forms: 

Light Lion  

Sunlight Lion. 

Ultimate Passion of the Light Lion. 

:Attacks: 

:Floret Sun Storm:

Ianna smiles, spectral petals of light blossom from her waist, more and more as she spins until as they sunder and rain down on the enemy in a hail of flaming petals. 

:Light Overdrive!:

Ianna appears curled up with the outline of a sunflower behind her. Light beads down from the sky, collecting in the center where Ianna glows brighter and brighter. Suddenly she unfurls with blazing glare of light to blind the enemy.

:Ianna Lion Roar Flare:

Ianna stands with her arms by her side, her hair sprayed out behind her, swirling like a flaming lion’s mane. Each tendril glows with a golden light and as Ianna raises her arms out from her side leaving glowing trails. As her hands twine above her head, the glowing tendrils of her hair look like the brilliant corona of the sun and as she cries the word “Blaze!” they flare to life and lash the enemy.
