History: Atsugessho was a female Droid who was summoned by Beruche and assigned with the task of corrupting the Elegance Shop Otafukuya - a cosmetics store located on one of the Crystal Points of the future city of Crystal Tokyo - with Dark Power, to which end the automaton assumed human form, took over the establishment after locking the actual shopkeepers in the basement and began posing as a saleswoman there. Little did any of the customers suspect that the cosmetics Atsugessho was selling were designed to temporarily make them very beautiful but would leave them looking extremely ugly once they wore off, a phenomenon which would contribute to the corruption of the Crystal Point with Dark Power in an as yet unexplained fashion.
                When Atsugessho's failed attempt to sell makeup to Usagi Tsukino - who had broken up with Mamoru Chiba only a short time before - escalated into an ugly scene which caused several would-be customers to hurriedly depart the establishment, the enraged Droid revealed her true form and attempted to deal with the individual she considered responsible for her loss of potential clients. Before she could do so, however, Luna collapsed a cosmetics rack on top of her head, giving Usagi the opportunity she needed to transform into Sailor Moon.  
                After having dealt with Luna and backed Sailor Moon into a corner, Atsugessho attempted to dispose of her adversary only to be interrupted a second time by the arrival of Tuxedo Mask, who reflected the corrosive perfume she shot out of her mouth right back at her, resulting in the complete erasure of all her facial features with the exception of her mouth. While attempting to redraw them, Atsugessho was destroyed by Sailor Moon's "Moon Princess Halation". 

Height: Unknown 
Weight: Unknown 
Eyes: Brown (human form); violet (Droid form) 
Hair: Brown (human form); green (Droid form)
Skin: Chalk white (Droid form)
 
Abilities: Aside from being able to assume human form, Atsugessho - as befitting her resemblance to a giant atomizer - could emit a volatile pink perfume from her mouth capable of melting through or disintegrating virtually anything it came into contact with (Including the Droid's own face! o_o) by applying pressume to a giant rubber squeeze ball connected to her head via a hose.
Paraphernalia: Atsugessho employed a variety of cosmetics and makeup-based weapons, among them powder puffs of various sizes - the smaller ones allowing her to transform from her human to her Droid form, while the larger ones served as offensive weapons for pounding and crushing - a special eyeliner that could be used to redraw her facial features following accidental erasure due to exposure to the corrosive perfume she spewed from her mouth, as well as a couple of hairspray cans that she could use to move along the ground at high speeds by using them in a manner reminiscent of roller skates. Atsugessho also made use of a special line of cosmetics - apparently concocted by Beruche and most likely contaminated with Dark Power - that would magically make whoever used them very pretty but whose side effect would leave them looking positively hideous afterwards.
