Sailorborealis is the pretty-suited sailor soldier of the spectrum of light. Her constellation is Corona Borealis, which is otherwise known as the "Northern Crown". She's a headstrong senshi who hated physical fighting for the longest time, but has gotten used to hand-to-hand combat, or in her case, hand to Rainbow Jitte combat. Her only obvious weakness is she needs to be around some source of light to use her powers effectively. Night is fine (she can use the light of the moon and stars easily), but pure darkness presents a large problem. Asako stores up light energy though.
*Powers and Symbol*
Her powers are derived from the spectrum of light, so her powers revolve around the rainbow of colors. Borealis's symbol is a curved line with five dots, which is the outline of the constellation Corona Borealis in electric blue.
*Fuku*
Borealis has the standard fuku, her unique color being electric blue (a shade between sky blue and aquamarine). The only noticeble difference is that Asako has three little golden pearls on each side of her golden star marking, ending near her hairline. Her boots are shin-high electric blue boots with slightly higher heels that come down in an inverted v, trimmed in gold around the ankles and top.
*Henshin Item*
Asako doesn't have a henshin item persay, but always carries a smaller version of one of her jitte with her around her neck. She uses it in the henshin sequence (but you don't see it because she's wrapped up in the sashes), and it lenghtens and replicates into her twin Niji no Jitte. She can also use the jitte when not in senshi-form, but it takes a lot of energy to be able to replicate the chibi jitte into the Niji no Jitte, but she can.
*Weapon*
Yes, Sailorborealis does have a set of weapons. They're called Niji no Jitte, or the Rainbow Jitte, which are two jitte (ancient Japanese feudal weapons reminiscent of today's sais) with extended middle blades. They collect light energy in the blades, and Sailorborealis must have them to use her attacks. Both are worn in a scabbard that appears on her back when needed.
*Her challenge*
"Blessed of the golden morning, I am the child of light, Sailorcoronaborealis! You have seen the last light of your existance!"
*Guardian*
Iris is the guardian of both Sailorcoronaborealis and Virgo. She's a half-grown blue-tortiseshell and white cat with bright green eyes and a golden star in the middle of her forehead. She's a very perky cat, and talks like an American teenage girl. (NOT a valley girl mind you...just normally!)
*Corona Borealis Constellation Power, Make-Up!*
Asako cups her hands above her head as the constellation Corona Borealis (five stars in an arc) begins to spin around and around. The five stars (which now look like a ring of blue light they're spinning so fast) then touch her hands, igniting her body in a flash of bright blue light. The chibi jitte still rests around her neck, shimmering all the colors of the rainbow. She crosses her arms over her chest, fingers glowing with white light and she brings her legs together, toes pointed down. Asako begins to spin as she lowers her arms out to the sides, the white light turning into silky rainbow-like sashes that form around her body in a cyclone formation. The sashes tighten around her body to a cocoon shape as light plays around the entire cocoon. Asako then slashes through the sashes with her jitte, fully transformed. She poses standing slightly sideways, holding one jitte extended out to the side, the other pointed toward the sky with the wind blowing her hair around and one leg raised to her knee.
*Borealis Rainbow Flash! (Borealis Senkou no Niji!)*
Borealis draws her jitte out from behind her back, flipping them so that the blades face out from her. She then crosses them in front of her body in an x-formation as a wind begins to blow her hair straight up and skinny sashes of rainbow light swirl around. Asako then places her swords in the same position she ends her transformation in, rainbow light enveloping her form.She then swings the jitte around her body, whipping the rainbow ribbons around her entire body as they sparkle even brighter. Borealis then screams "Borealis Rainbow FLASH!!" as she sends the flashing ribbons up into the sky. They dissapear for an instant, then crash down around her enemy, sending up large sparks of energy.
*Borealis Spectrum Diminish! (Borealis Bunkou Osamaru!)*
Borealis jumps up into the air, carried by a strong wind. Sparkles surround her body, and the jitte blazes as she bransishes them in front of her body. She then points them to the sky, rainbow light covering the entire blade on both jitte. The sparkles intensify around the entire area as she stops in mid-air by shoving her blades down to her sides, screaming "BOREALIS...". Asako then angles her entire body and the bladed straight down at her enemy as she screams "SPECTRUM...". She then swings both jitte in an upward motion, sending two razor sharp scythe-shaped beams of energy down toward her enemy with the cry of "DIMINISH!"
