Faraion

"Buzz off, little girl!"

- Faraion, Ep. #43

Faraion is the third Cardian that Alan and Anne send to gather energy for the Doom Tree. He has the appearance of a pink lion with a white mane, and making mainly guttural roars, with the occasional human dialogue. He appeared in the 3rd episode of Sailor Moon R (Ep. #43), "A Knight to Remember".

Faraion's first known energy drain victim was Lita's friend, Ken. When interrupted by Lita, Amy, and Serena, he disappeared into an Energy Wheel (resembling a spinning wheel). This Energy Wheel also stores the energy gathered by Faraion, which is activated by a might roar.

Upon his second appearance in a local park (a short distance from Raye's temple), he attempted to drain the energy of a frightened couple. The Sailor Scouts arrived on the scene just in time. Faraion's powerful breath attack proved to be too much for the Sailor Scouts, and knocks them all unconscious. When the Moonlight Knight appears, he destroys Faraion's Energy Wheel by throwing a white rose at it. This causes Faraion to lose a lot of energy and is momentarily stunned. Once regaining consciousness, he pounces on Sailor Moon. Sailor Jupiter uses "Jupiter Thunder Crash" to finally destroy the Cardian completely.

Trivia

 * Faraion's gender in the Japanese version is female, but in the DiC dub, he's given a male voice and referred to by the pronoun "he" by the Sailor Scouts.
 * Faraion is the only Cardian monster in Sailor Moon R whose name is never mentioned within the episode. The name "Faraion" comes from the The Sailor Moon RPG and Resource Book, and is the Romanized form of his Japanese name "Falion" (ファライオン).
