First Impressions
Appearance Mamoru is meant to be the picture of a 'dashing prince'. At 5'9, he's neither particularly tall nor particularly short. His color is dark, with black hair and dark blue eyes.

When not wearing a tux for his role in fighting crime, Mamoru is usually still dressed in nicer clothing, favoring button-downs and other more formal wear.

About
History  Please see the history written here
Personality Mamoru was created to be Naoko Takeuchi's (the creator) idea of a perfect man. Canonically handsome, he's serious and charming. Though his intelligence isn't as much of a focus as Ami's, he attends a prestigious high school and once he graduates, is selected by Harvard to attend a year-long program. Mamoru is also shown to read quite a bit, even when he's with Usagi at the arcade, and often uses this hobby as a way to do research. Between his intelligence and his seriousness, he's often a voice of reason for Usagi, seeing things in a more practical manner. This is further compounded by the fact he not only lives on his own, but he's also several years older than the scouts.

This maturity manifests in other ways as well. As much as he loves Usagi, he's willing to be stern with her as well, usually shown when he points out her late entries or lectures her over her attitude toward Chibiusa. Through minor characters, we see that he adopts a loving but serious attitude toward his juniors as well, reminding them to be serious in the same breath as saying he's sure that they'll do fine. It also manifests in less-than-fun ways, such as when he refuses to get on the carnival rides. Humorously, he has no explanation. He 'just doesn't do that kind of thing'. That kind of thing is 'have fun'. He doesn't have fun.

In addition to his charisma, the reason he manages to have such luck with people is his empathy. While he is stern when he sees a reason, he's also comforting and can even be a little silly in the right circumstances. When Chibiusa arrives in their time, he's much more gentle with her, even going so far to play with a hand puppet to cheer her up. When Usagi expresses jealousy, he points out how difficult it must be for her to be so far away from everyone she knows. This attitude is adopted even before he finds out she's his future daughter.

Like Usagi, he's stubborn and believes in his friends. While he isn't as energetic as his girlfriend, Mamou has the same kind of faith in those around him and often reminds Usagi of her own abilities. When she has given up on herself, he continues to have faith in her, no matter how dire the circumstances.

It's easy to assume Mamoru is someone without fault aside from being too serious about life. However, that isn't true. He's capable of doubting himself as well. Later on in the series, he feels useless, worrying he's only a burden on the Sailor Senshi. He grows concerned that he can't help them, which is later helped when it's discovered he has the Golden Crystal. This becomes so extreme that he hides the extent of his growing sickness from Usagi, even pretending to be cleared by a doctor while still coughing up black blood. He's also seen to be jealous of Sailor Uranus, who flirts with Usagi when in her civilian form. Later, he says that he trusts her, and he does, but the jealous was present in the moment.

His attitude toward people isn't always perfect. While it seems like the outlier and is a behavior we don't see elsewhere, Mamoru is rude to Usagi when they first meet, calling her a nickname and mocking her test score. While this quickly vanishes, it does continue for a few meetings. Mamoru also makes the horrible, rash decision to announce his intentions to the public when under the guise of Tuxedo Mask. Proving that he isn't the kind to play nice, he's also more suspicious of Neptune when they first meet as he's unsure if she's a friend or foe. While he's still perfectly cordial, he also doesn't pretend to trust her more than he does.

Perhaps, the most obvious way that he acts his age is his reaction to love. While he's a charismatic, mysterious figure much of the time, Mamoru isn't above blushing and acting as embarrassed about the idea of Usagi or love. Even if he trusts his girlfriend completely, it's hard not to when you're literally destined, he's also capable of jealousy, though it's resolved quickly when he becomes more willing to talk about it. 

Skills Fighter.

Mamoru has a few abilities that come from his former life, such as the Tuxedo Smoking Bomber, which is basically an energy beam. He's also able to take a bit of damage, and ... jump really high? He also has the ability to give his power to Sailor Moon to make her stronger. Occasionally, he can have visions that are trigger through touch, but it's hit and miss (mostly miss). 

Minor Healing/Medical Studies

Mamoru is capable of healing minor injuries using his magic. Additionally, Mamoru is in medical school so it's safe to assume he has some real-world medical skills as well.

Intelligence

Though it's often not the focus, Mamoru is very intelligent. He manages to get into a highly prestigious school and has no problem getting into medical school upon graduation.  

Shipping I'm very open to shipping. Anything in canon will have to compete with, and will probably lose to, Usagi. However, I'm willing to work with others who may want to try that route.

Who

✔ M/F, M/M

☆ Canonmates - In memes, I'm pretty open game when we can make them work. The only 'no' is Chibausa (though I'd love to play off her in gen memes). If we can figure out a way to make it work, I'm for it.  ☆ Crosscanon - Other anime, manga, LA shows and movies, comics, books, etc. No exclusions.
☆ OCs - I'm fine with OCs. If we're assuming CR, I do ask I have a little bit of personality info.
☆ Copies of himself - I'd prefer not. It just feels odd to me. This doesn't apply to multi-verse Spider-Mans...Spider-Men... ?

  I'm open to tense or antagonistic relationships as well as nicer, softer threads.

Warnings
☆Mind control/Nonconsensual touching Mamoru is brainwashed three times within the series by people who either fancy themselves in love with him or want to use Usagi's love for him against her. In his brainwashed state, he's kissed/made to kiss them. Which brings me to...

☆Incest kind of? His future daughter is turned dark and her love for him is twisted. She brainwashes him, gets him to attack his future wife/her future mother, and then forces him to kiss her.

☆SuicideUsagi's past self kills herself after Mamoru dies.
