Strengths: CereCere isn’t afraid to dream big; she won’t settle for less if the best is available. Also, no job is too big or too small (well, okay, sometimes too small); she is hardworking. She sticks closely to her allies as well, giving them plenty of support (though probably for her own ulterior motives).
Weaknesses: CereCere has a real problem with authority. She just can’t take orders or advice, and sometimes makes a bad move just to spite her betters. Also, she is too ambitious, and tends to bite off more than she can chew in hopes of attaining status.
Goals: Her main goal is to have a lot of power over other villains and dominate those common heroes. She also wants to steal the prettiest dreams since she considers them her sisters, she wants to find the rest of the Amazonesses. Safety in numbers, right?
Fears: She is scared of very little, but put her in front of a large animal and she becomes a whimpering little child. Also, she’s terrified of failure and becoming low-woman-on-the-totem-pole.

Personality: CereCere is quite high-class. She has very expensive tastes (limos, red carpets, diamond necklaces, etc.). Her clothes are always clean and neat (and from top designers). One would never catch her doing manual labor or hanging out with the lower class. She loves to hang around top class people, eating expensive food and chatting. Even her chatting shows off her refinement; she always uses impeccable language and speaks in a silky, albeit high voice. Her voice often hides vicious undertones, and this could prove lethal to her enemies. She can be downright deceitful at times; lying and expressing false feelings are her specialties. She prides herself as a mistress of disguise and master actress, able to take on any undercover role and play it convincingly. Sometimes, she’s a dancer, sometimes a cocktail waitress, and sometimes an artist. Her sense of humor fun of superiors by using their own words. However, she would never be deceitful or cold to her closest friends. She treats them as her family and drags them everywhere with her, whether they like it or not. Around them, she lets her hair down a little and loves to play games like rock-paper-scissors and hide-and-seek. Sometimes, though, she gets on everyone’s nerves. She is extremely stubborn, not budging once she has made a decision. She also is somewhat bossy, and will shove her decisions down someone’s throat if he won’t accept them. Seeming to have trouble with authority, she gets in trouble often for mouthing off at her superiors or defying their wishes. However, she usually atones for her impunity. She works hard, and has a lot of initiative. She tries to do her jobs thoroughly, and is usually one of the first people to volunteer for a task (as long as it isn’t too debasing). She rarely volunteers just out of good will, though. She is ambitious, and hopes that with every task, she gets closer to the top of the villain hierarchy.

Normal Appearance: Cara is usually pretty easy to pick out in a crowd, probably because of her singular hairstyle. Her hair is bright pink and extremely long. She wears part of her hair up in a bun on top of her head and has a big yellow bow behind the bun. Around her ears she wears part of her hair in a pair of big pink loops. The rest of her hair is pulled into two ankle-length pigtails with little pink pom-poms on the end. At the top of each of her pigtails is a large yellow bow. Going along nicely with her hair color is the color of Cara’s eyes: a cinnamon red. Her eyes are very large in comparison with the rest of her features; they take up half her face. The rest of her facial features are very delicate and refined-looking; her nose, for example, looks like it would break off if she fell. Cara’s body frame is very wiry and lithe-looking, almost like a cat’s. She doesn’t have a whole lot of curves and is very short, barely over 5’ tall (this bothers her to no end). Cara always dresses in clean, pretty, expensive-looking clothes. She particularly likes 70’s-style dresses in with lots of pricey gems, floral patterns, and bright colors. Going along with her floral pattern theme is a tattoo of a bunch of flowers on her left shoulder blade. In the tattoo there are four flowers: a pink one, a blue one, a green one, and a red one; the flowers represent the Amazoness Quartet, the other members of which she has been searching for.
Villian Appearance: CereCere looks almost identical to Cara, in that her hair, eyes, tattoo, and body shape are exactly the same. However, her outfit is much different. She has a little dark pink gemstone on her forehead, and, above that, she wears a little red flower that looks hot-glued onto her head. She wears a halter-top that looks a lot like part of a bikini. It consists of dark pink triangles, with light pink along the edges. Between the triangle things, very little is left to the imagination, since quite a lot of cleavage is revealed. In between the triangles is a big red flower (a similar one is at her throat). Little gold straps support the triangles and crisscross at her throat before going back behind her neck. CereCere’s skirt is similarly revealing; it consists of a dark pink bikini bottom lined with light pink and held up by a pair of red flowers at her hips. Beneath the bikini bottom is a (very) short yellow skirt. Matching the skirt are CereCere’s bracelets; they look like thick gold bands decorated with big red flowers. Her only other jewelry is a pair of red flower-shaped earrings. CereCere’s shoes look like little pink ballet shoes that have heels and a flower on each shoe where the straps crisscross.

Powers are based off of: Plants
Henshin Phrase:She doesn't really have one; she just snaps and a wall of rose petals come down, covering her up. She grabs the sides of the wall and throws it off to the side, and she's in villain form.

Powers:
Yellow Gem ____ - This can do a number of things. CereCere stretches out her left hand in front of her, and her gem appears in her hand. If she says, “Yellow Gem Transport,” she will teleport herself from a given location to the circus, and vice versa. Whenever she teleports herself, little yellow and pink rose petals appear. If she completes her phrase with “Nectar,” the gem produces a gooey substance that covers the target all over, providing a distraction. By ending the phrase with “Thorns,” CereCere causes the ball to produce multiple yellow shards, which fly at the target. Instead of causing physical damage, the shards pin the target to the ground/wall/whatever. The last word with which this phrase can be completed is “Fragrance.” This makes the gem release a cloud of heavy-scented gas, which causes everyone in the room to become sluggish and drowsy; however, this includes CereCere’s allies as well. The Yellow Gem attacks are mostly diversion tactics designed to get CereCere out of danger.
Peyote Gem - This is CereCere’s most useful attack. She makes a twirling motion with her hand, and a long pool stick, all chalked up and ready to go, appears in her hands. She spins the stick around on her fingertips a few times before leveling it at about shoulder level. As she bends down to aim, her gem appears at the end of the pool stick. Suddenly, she pulls back the stick and then shoots the gem at her target. The gem never hits the target directly. Instead, it hits the ground at the target’s feet, and a thick, spiny vine sprouts from the ground. The vine keeps growing larger and larger until it is able to find the target and wrap around it like a rope. The vine begins to squeeze, and the target’s dream mirror appears outside the vine. After CereCere grabs the dream mirror, the vine disappears, dropping the poor target to the ground.
Weapons/Equipment:
Gem - CereCere almost always has her gem somewhere nearby. She uses it to steal dreams, as well as in some of her attacks.
Pool Stick - CereCere only uses this to shoot her gem at people to get their dreams. It really isn't used that much.

Past History:
CereCere was born on the large asteroid Ceres during the Silver Millennium. She was supposed to grow up to be Sailor Ceres, part of a second generation of senshi. During her childhood, she spent a lot of time in training. She learned the various ways of fighting, along with some of the finer arts. Her favorite part of training was her long walks with her uncle, who taught her about all the plants in her family’s large garden. She also enjoyed getting to meet all the famous people of the day and associating with the wealthy members of her parent’s social class. However, she soon became disillusioned with her destiny as a senshi because it meant forever being subordinate to someone. Because of the lack of upward mobility, CereCere started putting less effort into her studies and training. She was really too young to be of help when Queen Beryl attacked the Moon Kingdom, but she probably would not have helped anyway. Queen Serenity, at the fall of her kingdom, sent all the senshi, CereCere included, to a new life on earth so that they might have another chance.
CereCere was reborn as Cara, and her life was indeed a good one. Her parents were filthy stinking rich, and spoiled her rotten since she was an only child. She was privately tutored from her earliest years, so she never had much contact with other children. However, she was thrust into society when her parents sent her to a private boarding school in Tokyo. She hated all the children there and believed them to be beneath her. However, she disguised her disgust in order to retain any possibility of having the other students to call on. She got involved in many political organizations at school, and was even student body vice president. Still, her power didn’t satisfy her. She wanted more power, but knew that she couldn’t go on pretending to like her classmates. Instead of facing up to her feelings and losing her position, she decided to run away.
Cara wandered aimlessly around Tokyo for several days, not quite knowing what to do with herself. In the end, she decided to find a job that paid well so she could keep supporting herself. She already had plenty of money, and was staying in a hotel (living on the streets was just so…plebian). However, no one was really interested in hiring such a young girl. One day, she discovered an ad in the newspaper calling for a trapeze artist. The ad said to contact Nehlinia of the Dead Moon Circus; Cara did so, since she was pretty agile and because she thought the prospect of being a star was exciting. She signed on, not really knowing what the job would entail, and was given a yellow gem. She became CereCere, a trapeze artist by day and a dream-stealing villain by night. She never really had second thoughts about her job, because she saw stealing dreams as simply a way to attain money and power.

Current History:
As a member of the Dead Moon Circus, Cara spent a lot of time as CereCere, the Magician of Plants. She traveled around from city to city, steal dreams from various people. She particularly liked to take the dreams of wealthy people, on the logic that their dreams made them successful and were therefore beautiful. She always tried to outdo the other circus members, hoping to gain power and favor with Nehlinia. She often worked with others, though, since safety lied in numbers. Though her groups of villains. After all, she knew she would need some support if she was ever going to claw her way to the top of the villain hierarchy.
CereCere didn’t find out about her senshi past until she came to Tokyo. She decided to visit a mystic just for fun, and ended up finding out a little more than she bargained for. At first, she would not believe it, but eventually she came to accept her past. She was partly disgusted that she would ever debase herself so much as to follow those goody-two shoes; she was also partly excited by the possibility, since she could always play her past on the senshi and use it as a spying tool. CereCere never really had many run-ins with the senshi, but she had seen them mess up the plans of her fellow villains. This irritated her to no end, since she viewed the senshi as a group below her. She decided that she needed to find the other members of a group from her past: the Amazoness Quartet. Together, she reasoned, they could defeat the senshi. Besides, she wanted to find them because they were linked by a past purpose and were her family, in a way. She is still stealing dreams, trying to find the Amazonesses, and trying to evade the senshi. However, these are all a part of her grand dream of becoming wealthy and powerful. She doesn’t want to be bothered with imposters and wants to stay out of the senshi’s notice as much as possible, though. For those reasons, she is hanging out in the shadows, waiting for just the right time to pounce and make herself known.
