Star Warrior

The **Star Warriors** (also referred to as part of the **Galaxy Soldier Army**) are an organization that appeared in the fanmade show, *Leeko: The Series*. They are a group of strong space-faring warriors who were said to have battled Nebula in a war many years before the events of the show. However, Nebula's monsters outnumbered them, killing most, and turning a few noble warriors against their former allies. The few Star Warriors who remained fled to distant parts of the galaxy in order to recover what they could and await the arrival of new Star Warriors throughout the cosmos to continue the battle. This title is typically applied to Moonlight Man, who is a veteran of the old war that took out most of his comrades, and Leeko, who is one of the new generation of Star Warriors.

## Characteristics

Despite their central role in the larger narrative of the show, not much is known about the Star Warriors at large aside from details about specific members. Most of the info relating to them is revealed by Moonlight Man and Mr. Mage, particularly in episodes Fighting With Swords, A Dark And Story Night, and Your Sword, My Sword. Individual Star Warriors seen in flashback scenes have varying body shapes and appear to be from different alien species, though most of them are dressed in hooded robes with appropriate weaponry and headwear that either partially or totally obscure their bodies. The only two Star Warriors who do not wear a cloak of some kind are Leeko and Sand Man.

New Star Warriors are said to be born out in the depths of space and incubated in personal starships until they are ready to battle monsters which their ships detect and carry them to. Leeko, in particular, is carried to Usapia in this fashion, but Moonlight Man explains that he was called in prematurely, which explains Leeko's infantile nature. It is unclear, however, how Leeko ended up with his own starship and with this distinction when taking into account Mr. Mage's story of how Leeko was initially created by Nebula as a monster, but was unable to control him. Star Warriors set up bases of operation across the universe, with Mr. Mage statues acting as sanctuaries for the warriors. The Mr. Mage in Usapia specifically has a pedestal inside his sanctuary which is where Leeko's Shooting Star resides.

## List of notable Star Warriors

This is a list of the following notable characters who have specifically been identified as Star Warriors in the show. Other characters who are related to these ones, but specifically referred to as Star Warriors will not be listed here.

### Leeko

Leeko is said to be a premature Star Warrior who was called in to battle monsters before he was fully ready to. Despite this, he is among the most powerful of his kind, able to effortlessly master and then discard various abilities that would take a long time for most other warriors to master. He is also described as a failed creation of Nebula Enterprises, which is why Nebula wants to destroy him.

### Moonlight Man

Moonlight Man is said to be a veteran of the war against Nebula which wiped out most of the previous generation of Star Warriors, taking refuse in Usapia and helping Leeko fend off the monsters that are sent to him. Moonlight Man is known to wield the sacred blade Dark Slash, and is incredibly knowledgeable, in addition to being a very skilled swordsman. He has taken in two apprentices Twilight Man and Aurora Man, though these two are not Star Warriors themselves.

### Gamma

First mentioned in the episode Your Sword, My Sword, Gamma was a veteran Star Warrior who was a master in swordplay and the mother of Diamond. Long before the events of the show, she and Moonlight Man ventured into the depths of Clawsakin's lair to recover the Dark Slash, but Clawsakin killed her in the process, allowing Moonlight Man to escape with the legendary sword. Diamond would later blame Moonlight Man for her death and try to hunt him down.

### Minesweeper's father

First mentioned in the episode That’s Minesweeper! and again in a later episode Metal Masher, The Second, Minesweeper's father was a skilled swordsman just like Moonlight Man, and also an ally to him in the war against Nebula. He was described as one of the strongest warriors, but he was kidnapped and turned against his allies by Nebula directly. Moonlight Man had no choice but to slay Minesweeper's father personally, which leads to his son to seek revenge.

### Sand Man

First appearing in the episode The Lost Warrior, Sand Man is an old drill sergeant of the Galaxy Soldier Army who ended up stranded on a deserted island off the coast of Usapia during the war against Nebula. He becomes paranoid that Leeko and his friends are monsters out to get him when they wash up on his island, but eventually comes to terms with them, and later joins Moonlight Man and his crew in the final assault on Nebula's fortress.

### Halcyon Man
