Death Buster information

[bissek]

One of the fics I'm working on (Child of Hope) takes place during the Death Buster arc of Sailor Moon. I need information on the Death Busters and Witches 5.
I need to know about their personalities, their attacks, and what kind of schemes each of them came up with so I can integrate this into the story.
Can anybody refer me to a site where I can get that information in any detail?

[Metroidvania]

Wiki.
Here's a link.
It's actually pretty accurate.
How in depth info where you looking for? I've got some stuff from my own research, but you could always use the SM sites mentioned in the SM info thread, or something to that effect.

I've checked Wikipedia, and it pretty much gives the names of the Death Busters and Witches 5 and says how they get beaten. It doesn't have any information on the daimon inside Prof Tomoe other than the fact that its there.
At the least I need a personality description of all of them, a listing of their attacks and roughly what they do, and at least two examples of schemes pulled/battles fought by each of them, so that I can fit them into the story.

Are you sure you looked carefully?

Just in case you don't believe me,

Eudial

EudialEudial (Eugeal in the English dub) is the first and possibly the leader of the Witches 5. She first attacks the Sailor Senshi in episode 103. Eudialyte is her namesake. Seiyuu Maria Kawamura provides her voice for the original Japanese production. Canadian actress Loretta Jafelice does her voice for the English adaptation.
Eudial seems to be the oldest of the group, and is much resented by the others — particularly Mimete — because Professor Tomoe seems to favor her. She uses her computer to track down potential Talisman holders, and takes bio-engineered monsters (Daimon) with her to remove said Talismans from their owners.
Eudial is generally fairly even-tempered and level-headed, except as a driver. She carries a deadly shoulder-mounted flamethrower, the Fire Buster, and later in the series booby-traps the under-construction Marine Cathedral. She actually succeeds in getting two of the Talismans, but loses them to Sailor Pluto. Furious, she escapes in her car, only to find that someone (Mimete) had torn out its brakes. The car crashes over the highway into the sea far below, causing Eudial's death.
In the manga, she goes by the alias Yuko Arimura and leads Good Etiquette in the Philosophy division of Infinity Academy. Her rank is Level 78. She leads some students to "Mount M" for a retreat and tries to remove their Hostes during orientation. Sailor Mars and Sailor Jupiter appeared and fought her. Sailor Mars used her 'Mars Snake Fire' attack on Eudial but it turned her into a monster looking similar to a Gorgon with a black star on its forehead. She was then killed by Sailor Moon. Although never used in the manga, her strongest attack (according to the Materials Collection) is called "Fire Buster."

I do believe I have a second reference site, though.
One moment.
EDIT: Here it is. This was given to me by Larry.
Here you go
Sorry if that's not enough. Others may have more detailed info on them than me.

[bissek]

That second reference site is just what I was looking for. Thanks.

[Metroidvania]

No problem.
Out of curiousity, if you're using the end of Chrono Crusade, how are you going to avoid, (if you do, that is) the massive spoilers for anyone who hasn't read the manga or watched the anime?

[bissek]

A lot of stuff that is only revealed at the end of the manga is already part of the story, in the prologue - starting with the true origins of Chrono's race and what really caused the rebellion. It was the only way to integrate the two series together that I could see and explain why the two main CC characters were together. The only things from the anime that will appear will be filler bits that I deem useful.

[timdraco]

got a question, how excactley did they come about just general info is needed. my fic im working on has ranma as hotaris dad! but im stuck on the point where the witches come into the plot cause i dont have no background on how they were created,born,hatched(comeon its possible),evolved form toxic sludge, u get the idea.
any info will help thanks!

[Pale Wolf]

They're humans, recruited for it.
No more than that was said, I think, so go wild.
Although, just as a note, they were probably working for him, either in connection to the school or as lab assistants, even before they were 'recruited' - their largely technical/scientific role seems to indicate it. And Kaolinite at least was definitely working on the development of the daimons - she's the one who designed the culture fluid (you know that red stuff?).

[timdraco]

so they where humans recruited for the job but what where there backgrounds? i mean is there any info on what they where before they became the witches 5? i mean theres got to be some info on em somewhere. DO they have familys? will they come looking for them?(hmm good idea for a fic there) did they have hopes, dreams? thats the kinda stuff im lloking for.

[Pale Wolf]

They don't even have human names. Free reign.

Mimete at one point in the dub I haver uses the name Mimi. She was entering a contest to become a movie star, and she needed to give a name. In the dub she seemed to me to be remembering rather then making a it up. If she won in the dub at least I think she woulfd have quit the Death Busters.

Well, this is a bit late, but Wiki has some info on their "aliases" once they've been turned into the Witches 5, if that helps.

According to the site that Metroidvania pointed me to, the manga Witches 5 don't have pasts. They were constructs created by Kaolinite and Professor Tomoe.

According to the site that Metroidvania pointed me to, the manga Witches 5 don't have pasts. They were constructs created by Kaolinite and Professor Tomoe.

And yet, in the same site, (I assume) it says according to the manga....

The professor then implants a daimon egg for Mistress 9 inside of his daughter's body. His goal is to perfect the superhuman daimon inside human vessels. The only ones who have been perfected are himself, Kaolinite, and the Witches 5. He eventually transforms into a superhuman daimon called Germatoid in act 32, after the senshi try to save ChibiUsa by destroying the Death Busters. Super Sailor Moon eventually kills him

which implies the Witches were either humans at one point, or were artificially grown.....
also...

These two are only one person, split in two, and are not twins. Cyprine is the only fifth witch, and Ptilol is either a double that she created and named, or an extension of Cyprine that has learned to manifest itself as Ptilol.

this also implies that the witches were human at one point....But really, as Wolf said, there's no difinitive back story behind their possible human origins, or if they were grown, it's not mentioned in the anime, to my knowledge.
and the link bissek mentioned, for anyone else who cares for it, is
