Rei Hino 2/3
Fandom: Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon - Anime
Character Notes:
History: Rei’s early history is not entirely exact. What is clear is that her mother died when she was younger and her father, a famous politician, caring more about his job than his daughter, dumped her with her grandfather at Hikawa Shrine. She grew up there, and gained a rapport with two crows at the temple, whose names are Phobos and Deimos. As she grew older, she became the miko or shrine maiden and began taking an active part in the care of the shrine. Her life, or so it seemed, was fairly normal.
In reality, however, Rei is the reincarnation of the princess of Mars, one of the Inner Senshi and a guardian of the Moon Princess, Usagi. Her identity as one of the Inner Senshi (but not as the Princess of Mars) was revealed to her by Usagi and Luna during an attack on a bus by one of the youma employed by the Dark Kingdom. She embraced her new role and goes to her new duties with gusto. Eventually, she is killed in the arctic by minions of Queen Beryl, sacrificing herself for Usagi along with the others, but is revived by the Silver Crystal and Usagi’s wish. She has no memory of her life as one of the Sailor Senshi until Earth is attacked by the aliens Eiru and An and the Senshi are called upon to defend the Earth and Princess Serenity again. After their defeat it seemed things might quiet down bit, but now a mysterious pink-haired girl by the same name as Usagi has arrived, searching for the Silver Crystal. And she's being pursued by an even more mysterious organization, the Dark Moon. Things are never simple for one of the Sailor Senshi, it seems.
Personality: Rei is, as one might expect for an avatar of Mars, a bit of a hothead. She has a quick temper and will unleash an acerbic tongue on anyone unfortunate enough to draw her ire. She is also stubborn, refusing to back down without a fight, and often gets into arguments with Usagi, her nominal leader.
When Usagi, Ami and Luna first approach Rei at the shrine regarding some mysterious disappearances, she is extremely reluctant to deal with them. She has been fairly isolated from people since she was a child, other than her grandfather, and tends to be a bit suspicious and untrusting at first glance. She tends to try and rely more on herself than anyone else, especially in the early part of the series. However, like all the other Senshi, she is extremely loyal, to Princess Serentiy/Usagi, perhaps even more so than the others due to the close relationship she has with her. Rei would (and does) die for Usagi without a thought. In the anime, she is also a bit more of a typical teenager in some ways, having a grasp on and interest in pop culture and music, as well as having dreams of becoming a pop star herself.
Other: With the powers granted to her as an Inner Senshi, Rei is able to transform into Sailor Mars, giving her greater physical abilities, as well as the power to shoot a fireball from her fingers when she shouts the words ‘Fire Soul.’ Further, in her ‘civilian’ form she has a few minor psychic abilities and is able to sense evil spirits as well as perform minor divination. She is also capable of performing exorcisms and binding evil spirits, part of her abilities as a miko.

Rei Hino 3/3
And of course Usagi made a big deal about it when I gave her a little shove today, too. What a cry-baby! I swear, why she’s the leader, I’ll never understand sometimes. I’d be much better at it than her.
Third Person:
Winter wasn’t exactly Rei’s favorite season, but it did have a certain charm to it, she had to admit. The girl stood just under the roof of the shrine, watching the snow drift silently down onto the courtyard. She’d have to sweep it later. Or maybe she should just start now, seeing as it wasn’t all that bad in terms of the precipitation. She hefted the broom and stepped outwards, breath condensing in the cool air. Rei shivered. The cold reminded her of the arctic and the events that had taken place there. Pushing the dark memories aside, she began to sweep, a small smile on her face. She didn’t mind the chores around the shrine, in fact, sometimes they helped her focus her mind on problems she was having. Other times, just some time to think. She shifted her broom and slapped some more snow off to the side. Ah, it was beginning to stop. Good, it meant she wouldn’t be fighting the stuff the rest of the afternoon. She glanced up at the shrine. The other girls would probably be by at some point considering how the Hikawa Shrine had become a sort of unofficial meeting spot for the whole team. That was assuming there wasn’t some sort of dangerous situation that required their attention, of course. Knowing the way things went being a senshi, though, it was almost a given.
It had been quite some time since the day she’d been given her transformation pen by Luna (a talking cat, which at the time had shocked her), and she had to admit that she wouldn’t give up the (usually dangerous) job for anything. She had four wonderful friends, especially Usagi; admittedly, they argued quite a bit, but they were closer to each other than the others, as well. Another deft stroke of the broom and a path had been swept clear. Good. Now maybe she could go inside and make up some tea or hot chocolate. The cold bit into her more a bit more vigorously. The arctic came to mind again, though this time she had to wonder why the uniforms were so damned bad at keeping them decently warm. You’d think that with the magic they’d be able to add a coat or something! With that thought and a small grin, Rei turned back to head inside. Enough cold for now.
