Powers: Roses: both Tuxedo Mask and his alter ego (Darien) share the ability to make roses appear out of the ether. Darien's are usually just your average long-stem roses, while Tuxedo Mask's have razor sharp ends that can penetrate even solid cement. (Imagine what they can do to the enemy!) Tuxedo Mask throws these at his enemies, or maybe just throws it in front of them to catch their attention. The rose is sort of his trademark calling card. When you see one embed itself in the ground in front of a monster, you know he's standing on some nearby rooftop or other high place, ready for action. Cane: Tuxedo Mask has a black cane that he usually keeps hidden, though sometimes he leans on it casually...if he's not using it to club an enemy senseless. This cane is also used as a pole vault or an anchor to pull someone out of deep pits or up to meet him on a higher ledge, because the cane can shrink or grow as long as he wants it to go.

History: This is Tuxedo Mask, Sailor Moon's handsome protector and boyfriend. He's your typical "Man in Black". Enigmatic, heroic, strong, and in Serena's words, "Soo dreamy...". When he's at work or school, his name is Darien Shields. Unlike the Senshi, he wasn't able to control his transformations right away...he didn't even know he was Tuxedo Mask! Darien would just be doing whatever he does during the day, and if Sailor Moon was in danger at the same time, Darien would collapse holding his head and think he'd blacked out. What really happened is that he became Tuxedo Mask, who, like Darien, didn't know who he really was. All he knew was that he had to protect Sailor Moon, and that he had to find the Moon Princess. Darien soon found out that he was Tuxedo mask, and later found out that Serena was Sailor Moon, and that Sailor Moon was the Moon Princess. Serena used to hate Darien until she found out his secret identity. Now the jaws of life can't pry the two of them apart. ;) To e-mail Tuxedo Mask/Darien, click here!
