Personality:
She is usually very shy, but can be forceful when need to be. She is calm and rational at all times and always thinks before she acts. Sometimes she has trouble dealing with here emotions.
Amy is the reincarnation of the Princess of Mercury, and transforms into the Brilliant Fighter, Sailor Mercury. Amy is the brains behind the Sailor Scouts and thus was given a pocket and virtual reality (VR) visor by Luna to enhance her natural talents. Although Amy is naturally intelligent, she must study very hard to maintain her near-perfect grades in school, and her position as the best student in Japan. Amy transferred to grade eight at Crossroads Junior High (Serena’s school) from the “brain farm”, Brighton Academy, and frequently attacks additional schooling in the evenings at the “Albert Einstein School for the Gifted” (referred to as juku in Japan). Amy once turned down an opportunity to study abroad in Germany, in order to stay with her Sailor friends. Amy wears eye glasses while reading, has an uncanny talent for video games, and has great affection for the third Rainbow Crystal carrier, Greg. Amy understands better than anyone that Serena is not just Sailor Moon, but a young and emotional teenage girl. Amy’s mother (a pediatrician) and father (an artist) are separated. She lives with her mother in Azabu Juuban and hopes to follow in her footsteps by also becoming a doctor.
Items of Power:
Mercury Transformation Pen—First appeared in Episode # 5, upgraded in Episode # 56 Luna gave Amy this item which transformed her into Sailor Mercury. However, the pen can also function as a focus for the Sailor Scouts’ personal energies, helping them combat or defend against negative energies by a sheer act of will. For example, Amy uses the pen to help prevent a dark portal to the Negaverse from closing so Sailor Moon and Sailor Mars would have time to escape back to Earth (Episode # 7). The transformation pens are also used by four of the Scouts to help defend against Malachite’s deadly blade weapons (Episode # 39). Miniature Super Computer and VR Goggles— First appeared in Episode # 6 Luna gives Amy the mini-computer and VR Goggles for the benefit of all the Sailor Scouts. The two items are connected in function, but can be used separately as well. The computer is mainly used for calculations and strategy, while the goggles can reveal other important information to Sailor Mercury, such as the weakness and true identities of her enemies, and the nearest escape route from buildings. Sailor Mercury carriers the computer with her at all times, while the goggles are activated when she presses on her earring. Pocket Communicator— First appeared in Episode # 14 The pocket communicator is given to the Scouts by Luna to help them alert each other to danger more quickly. The communicators are not magical, but high-tech devices with both an audio and visual component. Consequently they are not assigned a Power Point cost. Wrist Communicator— First appeared in Episode #56 This is an upgraded version of the Pocket communicator that is worn on the wrist like a watch. It does not have Power Points cost.
Transformations:
Mercury Power—First appeared in Episode # 5. Requires Mercury Transformation Pen. Mercury Star Power— First appeared in Episode # 56. Requires upgraded Mercury Transformation Pen.
Sailor Senshi Attacks:
Mercury Bubbles Blast—First appeared in Episode # 5 Sailor Mercury stands with her knees bent and arms outstretched, allowing a glowing light blue orb to form in her hands. She spins around once, crossing her arms over her chest before she stops. Amy finishes the attack by spreading her arms open wide to unleash a plethora of bubbles upon her opponent. The bubbles can do one of three things: cover the entire area with a thick fog, reduce the temperature to distract the enemy, or cause flying objects to fall to the ground. Mercury Ice Bubbles Freeze— First appeared in Episode # 47 Sailor Mercury powered-up this attack to defend the helpless babies from whom Alan and Ann’s Cardian, Skulkor, was draining energy. This attack sequence is the same as Mercury Bubbles Blast, except the words are changed and the target is frozen within a wall of ice. Shine Aqua Illusion—First appeared in Episode # 56 The attack sequence opens with a single drop of water falling into a puddle in which Sailor Mercury is standing. She spins in a circle, raising her arms above her head as water gathers around her body. She then swings her arms down before her, sending forth a powerful wave of water towards her target. This attack was originally translated as “Mercury Ice Storm Blast” (Episode # 56- # 65), but was changed to the original Japanese name during the translation of the remaining 17 episodes (Episodes # 66- # 82).
Attribute/Sub-Attribute Notes: 1. Both Luna and Artemis act as Sailor Mercury’s guardians, but the cat’s give most of their attention to Sailor Moon and Sailor Venus, respectively. 2. Sailor Mercury has combined with the four other Scouts to perform Sailor Teleport Power (Episode # 40) and Sailor Planet Power (Episode # 65). She has also combined her “Mercury Bubbles Blast” with attacks from Sailor Moon and Sailor Mars.
