Rei has black hair with violet highlights which hangs to her hips in long straight lines. The only style to it is her bangs; otherwise she doesn't wear it in any style at all, completely loose. Her eyes are a pure and perfect violet, fringed by long, sexy lashes, and set in a oval face. Her skin is pale, although lacking the pallor of Hotaru, and lacking any blemish. Rei stands 5'3" in bare feet. She is often to be found in traditional priestess garb or elegant, stylish clothing in primary shades.
Personality:

Rei seems a little mysterious to everyone around her. She has a personality that blends the drive for success with warmth, nobility, and balance. She can be somewhat introverted, self-analyzing, a soul-searcher; not at all the typical Aries. Tending not to speak much, when she has something important to pass on she won't hesitate. She does harbor some doubts and sometimes underestimates herself. Highly action oriented, when an idea strikes her, she is off quickly to carry it out.

She is visionary and mystical, with a slightly frightening understanding of people that sets her apart from the ones around her. Closer to women than to men, she expresses distrust of men and strangers, and can be very suspicious of odd happenings. Once she comes to care for someone, however, she will put herself into the line of fire to protect them without thinking of herself. The warmth of her personality draws as many people towards her as it repels.

She has a warm heart and an affectionate nature, because of a harmonious blending of individuality and personality; thinking and feeling are very much in tune. This doesn't mean she is a good shoulder to cry on, though; Rei doesn't express her feelings much and has little sympathy for listening to someone else's feelings. She has a talent for clear vision or for visualizing her goal or objective. She is a quick learner and a self-starter; enthusiastic and curious. Impressions that come to her via her senses leave a very indelible mark on her mind. It's hard for her to avoid being a little moody and worrying entirely too much.

Rei possesses a sharp temper and a quick fuse, as the soldier ruled by Mars, the planet associated with war. Fortunately, she gets over anger as quickly as it comes, and she never holds a grudge. Oddly, for all her quick temper Rei is rather pacifistic for herself, and fights to protect the people she cares about instead. Neither devious nor subtle in her actions, when she speaks Rei is usually downright blunt.

Fully matured, her Aries spirit aspires to a gallant "never say die" attitude, and a willingness to take advantage of each new opportunity that comes along.
History:

Hino Rei was born to a powerful resistance fighter and his priestess wife. Unfortunately, the trauma of the birth weakened her mother so much that within a few years Rei's mother died, leaving her father with a small daughter who was already showing strong signs of following in her mother's footsteps. The man had no idea what to do with the child, and continually was leaving her alone and bored.

Rei got into a lot of mischief as a child, and quickly became the leader of a raggle-taggle band of brats roaming the Imperial Palace. Her developing sixth sense kept them from being connected with most of the escapades, but couldn't keep them out of all mischief. When she was ten, the entire group was caught in the harmless act of sneaking food from the kitchens.

That was the end of her father's guardianship and of her freedom. Rei spent a year learning the error of her wild ways, and actually managed to gain some compassion and control under the harsh tutelage of the mistress of the kitchens. She spent a lot of time scrubbing floors and dishes. Unfortunately, she didn't learn any humility.

When she was fifteen, upon her father's death, her powers broke out of control. The fires in the temples flared up whenever she was in the area, and other more normal fires would go out as she approached. Random visions would assail her, sometimes rendering her unconscious and other times providing her with a grandfather of a headache. Finally, after too many months of this disturbance, one of the priests diagnosed the girl's problem and took her under his wing.

Rei is sixteen now. Her powers, while imperfectly controlled, no longer flare up unpredictably, and the incidences with fires have completely vanished. She is a self-assured, silent, sensual, maturing young woman whose unfortunately arrogant side has also earned her some enemies among the Palace population ... however, these enemies are nothing like the ones she will face when she realises her potential as ... Sailormars.

akuryo taisan :: A power she can use in either form, this calls on her abilities as a priestess. She produces a banishing charm, blesses it, and tosses it at the enemy. If it strikes, it will banish a lesser enemy, and immobilise a more powerful enemy. Her aim can be quite inaccurate, due to the heat of battle, and generation of sufficient power by the target can disintegrate the charm.

burning mandala :: Mars' first offensive attack, she calls out the attack words, and balls of flame marked with spiritual symbols surround her. Then rings of fire blast out from the symbols and hit the enemy. Like any fire attack, this attack's weakness is water. It's pretty powerful, but has no defensive capability at all.

mars snake fire :: Mars' second offensive attack. When she calls out the attack words, a flame shaped like a snake appears and wreathes around the enemy. Several levels stronger than burning mandala, this power can't be used as easily or as many times until she gains her third attack.

mars flame sniper :: Mars' third, final, and most powerful attack. She summons her Mars bow and Arrow, and aims at the enemy. When she says the attack words, a flaming arrow spears from the bow and straight into the enemy. This attack is all but unstoppable, but also nearly impossible to perform more than once during a battle. Achieving a burst of energy from anger or the need to protect her teammates, however, can enable her to perform this attack more than once.
Weaknesses in Battle: Sailormars' desire for action and flashfire temper often get her in trouble on the battlefield, as she charges into action without stopping to consider much of a strategy.
