Tuxedo Mask awakened on his own through dreams, not through the help of one of the moon cats. In the manga and live action, he was portrayed in the media as a mysterious jewel thief, since he stole gems in order to look for the Silver Crystal. In the anime, he did not have many powers, and in PGSM he did not seem to have any at all, but in the manga he had several attacks and was the keeper of the Golden Crystal, just as Sailor Moon is the holder of the Silver Crystal. He disguises himself in order to support the series' central heroines, the Sailor Soldiers. Wearing a mask to conceal his identity, he interferes with enemy operations, offers the Sailor Soldiers advice, and sometimes physically aids them in battle.
