SHAKA (Virgo)* Sex: Male Arguably the most powerful of the Gold Saints, Shaka is known as the "Man Closest to God." Or, rather, closest to attaining Godhood. Indeed, he is the reincarnation of a Buddha. He has mastered not only the 7th, but also the 8th sense, transcending death itself. Beautiful, elegant, and versatile, Shaka is a force to be reckoned with. To call what Shaka does "fighting" is too crude a word. The lotus position is his battle stance and the mind is his weapon. He will simply sit there and meditate you to death. To face Shaka is to traverse a labyrinth of Heavens and Hells. I pity the fool who gets him to open his eyes. Song I Associate With Him: "Siddhartha's Journey" by Guy Sweens *Tied with the previous Virgo Saint, Asmita. |

IKKI (Phoenix) Sex: Male Ikki is the resident badass of Saint Seiya. He comes in consumed by hate from his hellish training on Death Queen Island, perfectly willing and able to annihilate all his childhood friends - even his younger brother, who he later makes it his life purpose to protect. After he comes around, Ikki becomes an invaluable ally. Though he can be a blazing inferno in battle, his most devastating attack is one that assaults the mind with its own worst fears. True to his constellation, Ikki is neigh unkillable, rising from the ashes every time he falls. Song I Associate With Him: "Ring of Fire" by Johnny Cash |

MU (Aries) Sex: Male Mu..... fixes armor. This seems to be the purpose for his existence. At least that's the impression you come away with from the original TV series. In actuality, this level-headed, soft-spoken Gold Saint of Aries is a crafty and fearsome opponent. He's great at both offense and defense, as well as a number of other tricks such as teleportation and telekinesis. One of the three Gold Saints who saw through the false Pope's deception, Mu lived as a hermit in the land of Jamir. He has a quiet wisdom about him that few would question. |

HYOGA (Cygnus) Sex: Male Hyoga is a range fighter with dominion over the cold. That said, he sure is emotional for an ice-wielder. His motivation for becoming a Saint was solely to become powerful enough to be reunited with his mother, who currently resides aboard a ship... on the bottom of the ocean floor... quite dead. Creepy. Hyoga never quite gets over his attachment to his mother, and this goes a long way towards impeding his progress as a Saint. Still, his human frailties are endearing in both a pathetic and sym-pathetic way. |

SHIRYU (Draco) Sex: Male Shiryu's talents are stripping, bleeding, and going blind. I don't know where he gets his shirts, but I'm starting to suspect they're rigged with explosives designed to go off in his enemy's face. Despite being honorable to a fault, Shiryu is exceptionally lethal. Where others fail, he will find a way to dispatch an opponent, no matter the cost to himself. Yes, nobody survives Shiryu. O.o;; He's the most disciplined and selfless of the Bronze Saints. |

MIME (Benetnasch) Sex: Male Mime exudes no killing intent. Do not be fooled by his pretty face and lithe frame. His sweet melody has lured many an unsuspecting warrior to their doom. Calm, centered, and deadly, Mime uses his lyre to confuse, bind, and tear asunder any who stand in his way. "The strong survive, the weak die" is what he tells himself, but underneath his icy demeanor is a lost little boy who misses his family. |

SHUN (Andromeda) Sex: Male A.K.A. "The Pink One" I have a love-hate relationship with Shun. He had a breathtaking entrance with so much promise, and then he screwed it all up by being a pacifist crybaby. I don't know, sometimes Shun's caring nature is very sweet and touching, but usually it just annoys the crap out of me, especially when he starts sabotaging his teammates. Shun actually packs quite a punch when provoked, but that takes a while, so he mostly gets his ass kicked. And when Shun's in trouble, his brother Ikki shows up like clockwork to help. I think I've actually developed a Pavlovian excitement response to Shun's battles since 50% of them end with Ikki. |

MISTY (Lacerta) Sex: Male Why do I like Misty? I don't even know. He (yes, he) just has this campy charm that I can't resist. Despite wearing pink tights to match his pink lipstick, Misty will gladly strip it all off to bathe in the ocean while admiring his own naked body. He is a walking parody of every arrogant, narcissistic girly man ever created. Or, I should say, was. For despite the throngs of Silver Saints who came to avenge him, Misty is still dead. Twice dead, actually. He will be missed. :( |

JIN Sex: Male Stoic, honorable, disciplined, and elegant samurai. He hardly talks, but when he does he is soft-spoken and polite. Though he seems aloof he is actually thoughtful and kind. |

 Rank: 3

MUGEN Sex: Male The exact opposite of Jin, Mugen is hot-headed, reckless, and vulgar. No real surprise in that since he used to be a pirate. Still, he is probably Jin's equal with a sword. |

AMELIA WIL TESLA SEYRUUN Sex: Female Amelia fights for love, friendship, and justice! Though she starts out a clumsy, annoying wreck, she slowly gains maturity throughout the series until you can finally see her for the Princess and heir to Seyruun that she is. Her primary role is that of a healer, but she is also skilled in astral spells and dabbles in black magic. |

SHOURYUU Sex: Male A.K.A. King of En Hail to the King, baby! His people loved him so much they came back and tried to help him fight a suicidal battle after he clearly told them to escape. Everyone died and he was very sad. Why must he be cursed with such ravishing good looks and likeable personality? WHY GOD WHY?!? |
